Send us Fan MailWhat if the purpose of school isn't grades, rankings, or test scores — but helping young people discover their own purpose? In this rich and wide-ranging conversation, Andy sits down with Dr. Cinde Lock, Head of Pickering College and author of Connections, Academics, and Purpose: Designing the Future of School, to explore what education can look like when it's built around real problems, genuine connection, and meaningful work. Cinde brings a rare combination: the scientific rigor of a chemistry background, leadership experience across six countries and a lifelong conviction that schools can — and must — do better by their students.What You'll Hear in This EpisodeThe Childhood That Shaped a Leader Cinde was always the new student. Moving frequently while her father quietly hid the fact that he couldn't read, she never stayed in one school long enough to remember a teacher's name before Grade 5. That experience forged in her both deep empathy for learners whose gifts go unrecognized — and a bird's-eye view of education that let her see which "non-negotiables" in one classroom weren't even mentioned in the next.The CAP Framework: Connections, Academics, Purpose At the heart of Cinde's book and her work at Pickering College is a deceptively simple shift: start with a real problem people care about, then embed the curriculum into it — not the other way around. Polluted rivers. Carbon-neutral islands. Pig scratchers for an animal sanctuary. Acoustic panels for an echoey classroom. When students genuinely care about the outcome, the learning follows naturally — and the academic results speak for themselves. At one IB school in Korea, this approach helped lift results into the top 1% globally.Redefining What School Is For What if the purpose of school is to help kids find purpose? Cinde is building a tech framework at Pickering College that gives students a real menu of authentic projects, allows them to map their own learning (including outside achievements like music grades), and pursue "minors" and "majors" — going deeper where they're most alive. This is agency in practice, not just in theory.The Changing Role of the Teacher In a world where students have AI and global information at their fingertips, Cinde argues the teacher as sole expert no longer holds. The role shifts to coach, co-learner, connector, and critical thinker — someone who pushes students further and guards the deeply human dimensions of learning that technology can't replace.Regret, Connection, and the Ghosts We Carry Drawing on Denzel Washington's "ghosts of unfulfilled potential" and Daniel Pink's research on regret, Andy and Cinde explore what we leave unfinished — particularly in relationships. Her biggest regrets aren't about missed opportunities, but about people in different countries who shaped her deeply and drifted away with time and distance. The episode closes with a quiet but powerful invitation: think of someone who changed your life, and reach out.Key TakeawaysReal-world problems are the best entry point into deep learning — curriculum follows context, not the other way aroundStudent agency isn't a program you add on; it's a philosophy that changes everything, from how you plan to how you assessThe "soft skills" — empathy, connection, emotional intelligence — are actually the hardest, and schools need to prioritize them more as technology acceleratesMeaningful change takes patience; leaders must meet people where they are, not where they wish they wereConnection regrets are among the most common and most painful — and a short message of gratitude can be a powerful act for both the sender and the receiverAbout Dr. Cinde Lock Dr. Cinde Lock is the Head of Pickering College and the author of Connections, Academics, and Purpose: Designing the Future of School. With a background in chemistry and leadership experience across six countries, she has spent her career reimagining what school can look like when it's built around human connection, real-world relevance, and student purpose.Connect with Cinde: Cinde's WebsiteWhere to find her bookPickering CollegeLinkedIn

Alan sits down with Broadway producer Brian Anthony Moreland for a candid, high-energy conversation about the realities of commercial theatre. Brian shares the fascinating story of how he caught the theatre bug playing Santa Claus in the third grade , his formative years at a performing arts boarding school , and his early career as a non-union dancer dealing with the exhausting audition grind in New York City. He opens up about the pivotal moment he decided to pivot to producing, starting with a grueling five-and-a-half-year journey to bring Thoughts of a Colored Man to Broadway. Alan and Brian pull back the curtain on the industry's economic pressures, debating Broadway financials, escalating production costs, and what it truly takes to balance commercial viability with meaningful, artistic storytelling. The conversation centers deeply on Brian's extraordinary relationship with the work of August Wilson. He recalls the serendipitous train ride to Pittsburgh that led to him producing the record-breaking revival of The Piano Lesson , and how Denzel Washington personally asked him to lead-produce his next Wilson project. Brian breaks down the profound themes of identity, healing, and family preservation driving his latest production at the Barrymore Theatre, Joe Turner's Come and Gone, sharing delightful insights into working with legendary director Debbie Allen and the joyful, nurturing energy that stars Taraji P. Henson and Cedric the Entertainer bring to the rehearsal room. Finally, Brian takes on the 60-second plot challenge, pitches a classic musical, and reflects on the timeless power of theatre as a space where you can be anything. Brian Anthony Moreland is a transformative Broadway producer dedicated to shaping the contemporary cultural landscape through visionary, inclusive storytelling. Originally from California, he began his career as a performer before transitioning into producing. His impressive Broadway repertoire includes the ground-breaking global hit Othello starring Denzel Washington and Jake Gyllenhaal, the record-breaking revival of August Wilson's The Piano Lesson, The Wiz, The Lifespan of a Fact, Sea Wall / A Life, and The Sound Inside. A respected industry leader, Moreland serves on the Board of Governors of The Broadway League, where he co-chairs the Multicultural Task Force. He also holds leadership roles as a Trustee for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS, a Trustee of The American Academy of Dramatic Arts, a Board Director for NYC Tourism and Conventions, and is an active member of the Theatre Development Fund (TDF).

 That powerful quote from Denzel Washington drives this week's episode of Inspiration Nation, as Lee Kemp, Jose Noya, and Ryan Boniface explore the importance of failure, growth, and stepping outside your comfort zone. From personal stories about tennis, coaching, creativity, and missed opportunities, to fascinating examples of companies like Nintendo, Amazon, and YouTube pivoting from their original ideas, the team dives deep into why progress only happens when we embrace change and take risks. The conversation also reflects on the idea of “ghosts” — the dreams, talents, and opportunities left unexplored — inspired by a moving quote shared by Ryan Boniface. This motivational and honest discussion is packed with inspiration around personal development, mindset, leadership, resilience, overcoming fear of failure, and learning through experience.

In this 3rd recording of Off the Record in 2026, Rastislav, Stewart and Ken bring some new films into the picture.In our feature Rastislav compares two films about evil. I Saw the Devil from 2010, and Blue Velvet from 1986 represent stark opposites in how evil can be portrayed. I Saw the Devil being a Korean film directed by Kim Jee-woon and Blue Velvet by David Lynch. Both are well liked and are highly praised. One is more of a dark and psychological evil, while the other is a chaotic type. Stars include Kyle MacLachlan and Isabella Rossellini. The Korean film has Lee Byung-hun and Choi Min-sik as their main characters. Rasto gives us his impression of both films.Stewart's Greater pick Dangerous animals from 2025 directed by Sean Byrne — starring Hassie Harrison and Jai Courtney. The Dangerous animal in question are blood thirsty sharks off the gold coast, but the antagonist has a dark secret to be revealed to his would be captors. The film takes us slightly into the psyche of a serial killer, but remains true to the genre of a survivalist film.Ken gives us a run-down of his man vs machine pick, Unstoppable from 2010. Directed by Tony Scott and featuring Denzel Washington with Chris Pine. The film is about a run-away train carrying dangerous chemicals and the efforts made to get the train under control. Based on real life events while still filled with action and suspense. This was Tony Scott's last film unfortunately before he passed on. Ken gave it a fair assessment. The Lesser pick by Stewart had an interesting premise, but fell way short in the delivery department. American Sweatshop from 2025 directed by Uta Briesewitz and starring Lili Reinhart attempts to give us an inside look into the lives of social media content moderators. The film is set in modern day Florida and the main character becomes obsessed with one of the recordings she saw while moderating. She hopes to get justice for the possible victim in the video.And finally Ken recounted his experience with the 2016 sci-fi pick Colossal directed by Nacho Vigalondo and Anne Hathaway as the lead actor. Unfortunately there was a bit of a bait and switch as the film had a darker edge than Ken expected, rather than the whimsical sci-fi comedy he was expecting. And one final note from Stewart is the disappointing 2026 series finale of Good Omens that left a bad taste for Stewart and seemingly the fans. This is a public episode.

“Do you want to be right or do you want to be interesting?” Yahya Abdul-Mateen II In this episode of The Pivot Podcast, we sit down with Yahya Abdul-Mateen II for a candid and inspiring conversation about the road that led him to becoming one of Hollywood's most compelling actors. Full of energy, spunk and true authenticity, Yahya lets his guard down with Ryan, Channing and Fred- revealing a side of deep pain that has led to difficult healing as well as giving us a glimpse into the traits that make him one of film industry's most sought-after leading men. Yahya opens up about his childhood, sharing what it was like growing up from Louisiana to Oakland and how his upbringing and community helped shape his voice, work ethic, and backbone in creativity. He takes us behind the scenes of his unconventional journey into acting—from his aspirations of architecture and building to taking a leap of faith into acting classes and fully committing to the craft. Yahya reflects on the risks he took, the doubts he faced, and the defining moments that pushed him forward, offering insight into the discipline it took to break into a competitive industry. The conversation also dives into his standout roles across major hit projects like Aquaman, The Trial of the Chicago 7, and Watchmen—the latter earning him critical acclaim and an Emmy Award. Yahya shares how he approaches complex characters and prepares for emotionally demanding performances, giving listeners a deeper understanding of his creative process. A highlight of the conversation is his discussion of stepping into his latest role, starring as John Creasy in Netflix's new series Man on Fire, famously portrayed by Denzel Washington. Yahya explains how he honors the legacy of the performance while making the role his own—bringing a fresh perspective, new emotional layers, and a distinct physical presence that reflects his personal interpretation. He goes on to share that choosing to be interesting is more impactful than being right, which is a philosophy that he has used to separate himself from others in his craft. Grounded, thoughtful, and refreshingly honest, Yahya gives us a deeper look at the mindset, resilience, and purpose behind his rise—making this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in creativity, reinvention, and chasing purpose beyond comfort.

If you make a remake to a cinema classic (and Oscar nominee), chances are the buzz starts there. But in revamping The Manchurian Candidate to the post-9/11 culture, Oscar winning director also added the pedigree of recent winner Denzel Washington and then-recent nomination record breaker Meryl Streep, the buzz multiplied. But this version of a … Continue reading "389 – The Manchurian Candidate"

Acclaimed author Walter Mosley headlines the Frederick Speaker Series at the Weinberg Center in Frederick, Maryland this Thursday, April 30. They discuss his prolific literary career, including his 1990 detective novel “Devil in a Blue Dress,” which was memorably adapted into a 1995 film starring Denzel Washington. (Theme Music: Scott Buckley's "Clarion")

In this episode, we break down REMEMBER THE TITANS — the sports drama that goes far beyond football to tell a powerful story about leadership, unity, and growth. We dive into how the film uses the game as a backdrop to explore real human struggles, showing how a divided group can come together through discipline, accountability, and shared purpose.We analyze Denzel Washington's commanding performance as Coach Boone, the transformation of the team throughout the season, and the emotional moments that make this movie so impactful. From intense practices to unforgettable speeches, Remember the Titans builds a story that resonates long after the final game.This is a movie about trust, respect, and overcoming differences — and we break down exactly why it continues to inspire audiences today.Chapters:00:00 BIG ANNOUNCEMENT1:37 Gray first time watching this movie21:06 What's up with the kissing scene?24:03 A sports movie with GREAT sport scenes30:37 Ryan Gosling sliding in as a side character38:32 The origin story of Shane Gillis' funniest skit43:07 Coach Boone has insane standards46:31 Sit down Sheryl (but respect) + Coach Yoast divorce54:46 The trickery they pull on you56:39 The corny moments in the movie59:59 Gerry's car wreck1:09:41 Our official rating & final thoughts

Hollywood is in the middle of a triple crisis. You can measure it in tickets, jobs, and ideas. Start with tickets. The best year for the movie business this century was 2002, when Americans and Canadians bought 1.6 billion tickets, or about five per person. Last year, Americans bought half that number. Eighty years ago, the typical American went to the movies twice a month. Now they go about twice a year. Then there are the jobs. Studios are making fewer movies and shows than they did just a few years ago, and the projects they green-light are increasingly shot overseas, where governments hand out generous subsidies. According to The Wall Street Journal, employment in Hollywood has fallen 30 percent since 2022 across the hundreds of trades—actors, carpenters—that make film and television possible. And then there's the creativity problem. It's not just that studios keep reheating 20th-century IP. The stars are getting older, too. Among the 14 most important movie stars of this decade, the average age is 57. Half are over 60. None is under 45. Even many of Gen Z's favorite movie stars—the Rock, Ryan Reynolds, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Denzel Washington—had hit films before Gen Z was born. Today's guest is Sean Fennessey, host of The Ringer's The Big Picture and author of the new Substack Projections. In an essay published this week, Sean argues that all the gloom is missing something real: Attendance is perking up, young stars are breaking through, and the auteurs we've followed for 20 years are ascending to the center of the culture. Today, Sean and Derek talk about the new rules of Hollywood and what they tell us about the changing winds of American culture.

Connor and Mike give their rankings on Denzel Washington and each have their own tiers for them.

Inside Man is a clever heist film with the twist staring you in the face from the beginning. It's also the first Spike Lee or Jodie Foster film to be reviewed on Have You Ever Seen in quite some time. Foster and Denzel Washington's scenes together are fantastic. The 2 of them, plus Clive Owen, Christopher Plummer, Willem Dafoe and Chiwetel Ejiofor deliver. Ironically, though, for a film with such intensity for 2 straight hours, the actors are generally calm. Well, Denzel is showboating, but he's Denzel. You can't reign in that charisma machine. So for my 734th episode, settle in to hear about a snappy caper film as I monologue about Spike Lee's biggest hit, Inside Man. Subscribe to Have You Ever Seen in your app. Rate and review it too.

LZ hosts an episode of “You Are Beautiful” with actor Jason George, discussing why he's uncomfortable with compliments and how he prefers focusing on work that puts something meaningful into the world. George answers Lauren's mirror question by identifying first as a proud father, then they explore how he stays grounded in Hollywood through truth-telling family relationships, including a story from his rain-soaked wedding and the role of his brothers in keeping him humble. They discuss hate as fear rooted in lack of understanding, the importance of proximity to others, and Lauren shares his experience as a gay man and his father's evolving views. George recounts pivoting from a pre-law path into acting, booking Sunset Beach via a large audition contest, and later joining Grey's Anatomy without auditioning, crediting his ease and chemistry with Chandra Wilson. They reflect on why audiences connect with Ben Warren, share a Denzel Washington anecdote, and George advises actors to create their own work, find their voice, and avoid neediness in auditions, closing with his statement that he is beautiful because he cares about other people.Timestamp Menu: 00:26 Stay Ready Mindset01:34 Compliments and Purpose03:10 Beauty Beyond Looks04:52 Why This Podcast Exists05:53 Mirror Question Dad First07:07 Marriage and Staying Grounded10:27 Brothers Family and Loyalty14:29 Identity Proximity and Hate20:03 Finding Acting by Accident23:02 Sunset Beach Soap Bootcamp24:48 Idol as Publicity25:27 Sunset Beach Break26:46 Kismet Casting Day28:06 Union and LA Move29:31 Denzel Food Truck30:46 Grey's Without Audition34:26 Ben and Bailey Magic39:48 Desert Island Pick43:47 Advice for Actors47:56 Beautiful Because50:39 Fatherhood and Wrap
