Podcast appearances and mentions of david wilmot

Join hosts Gaius and Jackson on 'Back To The Blockbuster' as they delve into the world of Hokum, a supernatural horror film written and directed by Damian McCarthy and starring Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, and David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh and Michael Patric, Will O'Connell and Brendan Conroy. This episode sees the co-hosts diving into the mysteries and hauntings of The Bilberry Woods Hotel as Adam Scott's Ohm Bauman travels to Ireland to lay the ashes of his parents to rest and finds himself learning about a local witch name the Cailleach, a local witch who kidnaps children and leads them in chains on a tour through the underworld, where they are clawed by the souls of who live there. How is this connected to a bartender at the hotel that goes missing? Is the hotel haunted? And, what will Ohm discover that his past traumas will collide with the horror that's on display at The Bilberry Woods Hotel. It's a mystery worthy of exploring, much like this episode which looks into what is one of the best horror films of the year.

Irish film director Damian McCarthy had only made two features before 2026's Hokum but has already proven to have a distinctive style and tone.  McCarthy also wrote the screenplay which tells the story of an American writer (Adam Scott) visiting an isolated Irish Inn with a spooky past.  Shot on location in County Cork, Ireland, the film's supporting mostly Irish cast includes Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh, Michael Patric, Will O'Connell, Brendan Conroy, and Austin Aumelio.   Dan and Vicky discuss the film, out in theatres now, and lots of recently seen films like Deep Water, Normal, The Sheep Detectives, Over Your Dead Body, and Lorne, the documentary about Lorne Michaels.

A successful novelist travels to an old Irish hotel to spread his parents' ashes, and ends up walking into a very unsettling series of events.  We review the new folk horror film Hokum in this episode.

Director Damian McCarthy really loves to hit that dread button, and in “Hokum,” he absolutely wears that thing out. Not with loud shocks or cheap jolts, but with the kind of slow, creeping unease that just sits there, staring back at you. The longer you watch, the more it feels like the movie isn't escalating so much as tightening, quietly, deliberately, until there's nowhere left to go. Then he slaps you across the face for good measure.READ MORE: ' Hokum' Review: Adam Scott Is Haunted By A Hotel Full Of Scares, Death, & Secrets [SXSW]Written and directed by McCarthy, “Hokum” stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, and Austin Amelio. The film follows novelist Ohm Bauman, who retreats to a remote Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, only to become consumed by stories of a witch tied to the hotel's honeymoon suite. Disturbing visions and a sudden disappearance begin to fracture whatever control he has left, forcing him to confront a past that doesn't stay buried.On this episode of The Discourse, McCarthy joins the podcast to break down how “Hokum” came together, why he stripped the story down rather than build it out, and how he balances supernatural horror with something far more immediate and human. The starting point was as simple as it gets.

"Hokum" is a supernatural horror film written and directed by Damian McCarthy, starring Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh, Michael Patric, Will O'Connell, Brendan Conroy, and Austin Amelio. Scott plays an author who travels to a remote part of Ireland to spread the ashes of his deceased parents, unaware that his rented accommodation could be haunted. The film premiered at the 2026 South by Southwest Film & TV Festival and received positive reviews from critics for its haunting atmosphere, jump scares, integration of Irish folklore, and Scott's performance. Scott and McCarthy were both kind enough to spend some time talking with us about their work and experiences making the film, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the film, which will open in theaters on May 1st from NEON. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

Well, here we are. Chloe Zhao's Hamnet - one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the year - premiered at the BFI London Film Festival two weeks ago. Since it's premiere at Telluride back in late August, this movie has been billed as a locked-in OSCAR contender and potentially one of the biggest threats to WIN Best Picture. Reviews like that always get on my nerves because it's classic film festival overhype. You watch a movie surrounded by all the cast & crew and thousands of like-minded movie fans and, inevitably, the hype is going to be through the roof. All that being said, I watched this movie at a film festival as well... so I'll be telling you all today whether the hype was real. I've been a little nervous going into Hamnet because, while the trailers have excited me and the reviews were certainly promising, I am neither a Chloe Zhao guy or a Shakespeare guy. Zhao's movies have always felt cold to me and I truly believe that Nomadland is probably one of the worst Best Picture winners.... of all-time! But, I'm happy to report that Hamnet is the first time that I've truly been able to connect with one of her movies.

He is a passionate and decisive leader with a track record of delivering results for founding teams and shareholders. Before Tuli, David was the Chief Operating Officer for UCode and Head of Operations & Sales at Pressed Juicery. He is obsessed with developing people and building mission-driven businesses that make the world a better place.  In this episode… People naturally want to be part of a community and connect with others. Unfortunately, online shopping through social media and e-commerce platforms isn’t the best place for connecting. As more people transition away from the mall and towards the screen, that feeling of being in community with others while shopping around starts to evaporate.  However, with the growth of e-commerce, many people are choosing which products to buy based on other examples of community: online reviews and recommendations from friends, family, or influencers. This is why David Wilmot created Tuli, a social shopping platform: to help online shoppers connect with others and easily find recommended products. By building inclusive online communities, David hopes to bring the warmth of retail shopping to e-commerce, one keyboard at a time.  In this week's episode of the Innovations and Breakthroughs Podcast, host Rich Goldstein is joined by David Wilmot, the Founder and CEO of Tuli, to talk about building a community around e-commerce shopping. They talk about how David's social shopping platform works, why it’s important to be part of a community, and how David's background drove him to entrepreneurship.

David Wilmot on an unexpected meeting at the home of his future inlaws that influenced his decision to go to law school~ "When I went downstairs, I was blown away. Playing poker were the following: Thurgood Marshall, Wiley Branton, a young Vernon Jordan, Floyd McKissick. . . We only read about these folks in Jet Magazine or in Ebony. . .That influenced, inched me towards me thinking about law school." David Wilmot, Attorney | Businessman | Lobbyist | Activist and Andy Ockershausen, in studio interview Andy Ockershausen:This is Andy Ockershausen, and this is Our Town. I have a great opportunity for me and my knowledge, which then it makes our audience more knowledge, but to find out about a name that's been around Washington for years that's very famous but unknown, that's David Wilmot. David is an attorney, not a lawyer, an attorney. He's from a law firm Harmon & Wilmot. He's an expert in local government, corporate and commercial real estate development, promotion of minority and small business. David, you're involved in everything. Did I not know until today and hearing your name and knowing you for all these years, you were born in St. Martin? David Wilmot: Yes, that is correct. Andy Ockershausen: Janice and I, I took her to St. Martin's two years ago. They had the terrible hurricane go through there. The Early Years - Panama, Jamaica, and St. Martin David Wilmot: That is absolutely correct. Growing up there, we had probably 10 or 12 hurricanes. Our homes are so well-built that they've always stood hurricanes. You go back to my grandparents and great-grandparents, those houses- Andy Ockershausen: You're in the French part or the- David Wilmot: We live on both sides. Andy Ockershausen: Both sides. David Wilmot: When I was growing up, there were only 5,000 people on the entire island. It was primarily farming. Some time in the late '60s, we started moving towards tourism. It's one of the premier tourist destinations. Andy Ockershausen: I was on board of a National Associations of Broadcasting. We had our annual meeting in La Samanna. It just opened. In fact, they were still whitewashing part of it when we were there. That must've been in 1974 or something like that. David Wilmot: It would've been around that time. That's absolutely correct, because when I was growing up, the only hotel we had was the Little Bay Hotel. We only had one hotel on the island. We had two guest houses, The Passing Gram was one of them, and Delito was the other. Andy Ockershausen: In our island in the sun. It was a magnificent vacation. I'll never forget the airport, David. I'm sure it's still that way. I didn't think they'd get that airplane off the ground. It took off right over a mountain. David Wilmot: It does. Andy Ockershausen: Is it still there today? David Wilmot: It's still there today, and they haven't expanded the airport any longer. The new jets are capable of- Andy Ockershausen: They can do it. Get off the ground easy enough. David Wilmot: Get off the ground quite easily. Andy Ockershausen: David, you're born and raised in the islands and you went to school. How in the world? David Wilmot: Let me correct one thing. I wasn't actually born in St. Martin. I need to share that with you. My parents and grandparents went to a place called Panama to work on the Panama Canal. Andy Ockershausen: Is that right? David Wilmot: My father and his father and grandfather came from Jamaica to Panama. My mother and her family came from St. Martin to Panama. I was actually born in Panama in Gorgas Hospital on the canal zone. Andy Ockershausen: That's the famous name, Gorgas, right? David Wilmot: Exactly. Then raised between Panama until I was 12. My father died and then we went back to Jamaica for a brief period, and then to my mother's home in St. Martin. Then I came to the United States at age 17. Andy Ockershausen: Wow.

The State of our Ocean gala hosted by Ocean Champions was an uplifting and memorable evening with Philippe Cousteau, Senator Mark Begich and David Wilmot to discuss actionable ways we can all work together to achieve success for healthy oceans.

On this latest episode of Speakin' Geek Graham was lucky enough to be invited to the red carpet of John Michael McDonaghs new film- War On Everyone. Starring Alexander Skarsgård, Michael Pena, and Tessa Thompson this film feels like the spiritual successor to The Guard. It involves two corrupt cops doing corrupt things. Graham got to interview David Wilmot, he bumped into Orla Brady who was in Doctor Who, and he got to interview both Michael Pena and Alexander Skarsgård. It was an absolute blast and they were both gents. Be sure to share and subscribe to future episodes if you enjoyed this one. Massive shout out to Niall Murphy for giving Graham the opportunity to once again make himself feel like a real journalist.

Conserving and protecting our oceans and coasts requires grassroots advocacy and full engagement in the political process. While the lists of challenges facing our oceans is long, the potential solutions are relatively well-known. However, securing the strong policy changes needed to achieve these solutions requires leadership and support from elected officials. Building this political will requires a strategic effort among ocean lovers, ocean conservation groups, and elected officials. At a recent panel discussion in Los Angeles hosted by the Environmental Media Association, experts in ocean policy, advocacy, and grassroots organizing addressed how political hardball can save our oceans and coasts. Their collective conclusion was that only by fully participating in the political process can we achieve lasting victories to secure the health of our oceans. Listen to the full discussion featuring: Salud Carbajal Angela Howe, Esq., Dr. David Wilmot, Ph.D., and moderated by Ashlan Cousteau.

Dr. David Wilmot has over 30 years of experience in ocean science and policy. After receiving his PhD in Marine Biology from Scripps Institution of Oceanography, he went on to work as a policy fellow and advocate in Washington D.C. including as Executive Director of the Ocean Wildlife Campaign that aimed to conserve large ocean fish. In 2003 Dr. Wilmot helped author a report, ‘Turning the Tide’ that examined why marine conservation efforts were not having a larger policy impact. Shortly thereafter he and Attorney Jack Sterne co-founded Ocean Champions, which identifies itself as, “the only political voice for the oceans.” Ocean Champions is a conservation organization that includes a Political Action Committee (PAC) aimed solely at making the health of our public seas a nonpartisan national government priority. It does this by endorsing and raising money for Congressional “ocean champions” and opposing “ocean enemies,” of both parties. It also works directly to support legislation to address important issues such as over fishing, trash-free seas, and a bill to study harmful algae blooms that passed into law in 2014. Under Dr. Wilmot it also tracks and fights bills and legislative amendments that threaten the marine environment. Since its founding Ocean Champions has worked on over 200 Congressional campaigns with its “champions” winning elections 86% of the time.
