Send us a textWho would win in a fight between the Ninja Turtles and the Power Rangers? As they analyze fighting styles, weapons, and special abilities, nostalgic memories of Saturday morning cartoons emerge, leading to a spirited discussion about UPN's golden era of Black television shows.The conversation shifts to boxing's decline as they evaluate the upcoming Floyd Mayweather vs. Mike Tyson exhibition match. "Not all money is worth it," one host argues, questioning why legends risk their legacy for exhibition fights that won't count toward official records. This prompts a deeper conversation about boxing's lost cultural relevance. Things get juicy when we dissect Young Thug's leaked jail phone calls that have revealed shocking comments about fellow artists including Future, Kendrick Lamar, and his alleged infidelity against girlfriend Mariah the Scientist. "These calls are dropping like mixtapes used to in the early 2000s," they observe, questioning who might have a vendetta against the Atlanta rapper. The episode closes with a thought-provoking moral dilemma from Denzel Washington's latest film: if you had $18 million and kidnappers demanded $17.5 million for someone else's child they mistakenly took instead of yours, would you pay? FOLLOW.

Send us a textWhat happens when you combine billion-dollar Powerball dreams, a fallen cookie tragedy, and the discovery of Phoenix's best-kept wing secret? You get one of the most entertaining food-focused episodes we've ever recorded.After taking a week off, we're back with renewed energy and big money fantasies as we dive into what we'd do with the unclaimed $1.7 billion Powerball jackpot. Would you take the lump sum payout of $466 million? Move to a state with no income tax? Buy houses just to leave them empty? Our answers might surprise you (or confirm we're exactly who you thought we were).The conversation takes an unexpected turn when one host shares his morning encounter with police conducting a wellness check from a woman named "Amanda" who claimed he was selling his house to her—a complete fabrication that highlights the weird scams people are attempting these days. This leads to an equally bizarre tale of cookie heartbreak involving a Wendy's sugar cookie, a trash can, and the universal question: would you have still eaten it?But the true showstopper comes when we reveal that some of the best wings in Phoenix aren't at a fancy restaurant or sports bar—they're at Banner Hospital on 91st and Thomas. Yes, a hospital cafeteria. This sparks a heated debate about what constitutes a real cookie versus a muffin, with passionate arguments about Crumble Cookie, Fat and Weird Cookies, and the disturbing number of ingredients and calories hiding in these treats.Between nostalgic discussions about the proper way to make Kool-Aid and the revelation that we've all been pronouncing Denzel Washington's name wrong, this episode delivers the perfect blend of humor, food appreciation, and everyday absurdity that keeps our listeners coming back for seconds.Ready for some unfiltered food talk that will leave you hungry and laughing?

September's going to be a busy month, we can tell already. We took a week off at the end of the summer but we're coming in hot to start the fall here at Breakfast All Day. Supposedly "The Conjuring: Last Rites" is the final film in the franchise -- it says so right there in the title! -- but nothing ever really ends. This is once again the scariest case Ed and Lorraine Warren have ever taken, something to do with a haunted mirror. You've seen it all before, but Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are committed to the bit as always. In theaters. Then we review both Spike Lee's "Highest 2 Lowest" and Akira Kurosawa's "High and Low," the 1963 film that inspired it. The new one stars Denzel Washington as a music industry titan fighting a kidnapping scheme; Toshiro Mifune played a shoe company executive in the original. They have similar bones but are extremely different in how they tell their stories. The Kurosawa film is one of his greats, and Lee's latest is his most purely entertaining movie in a while. (At least one of us thought so.) You can catch "Highest 2 Lowest" on Apple TV+, while "High and Low" is on HBO Max and The Criterion Channel. Finally, we did a lengthy Movie News LIVE! Lots to talk about with fall festival season beginning, plus new trailers including "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple," and the gross use of AI to complete Orson Welles' "The Magnificent Ambersons."

Sean and Amanda start the show by reacting to a handful of recent movie trailers, including Emerald Fennell's ‘Wuthering Heights'—starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi—and Nia DaCosta's ‘28 Years Later: The Bone Temple' (3:33). Then, they unpack Spike Lee's newest film ‘Highest 2 Lowest,' starring Denzel Washington and A$AP Rocky. They explore its very high highs and occasional low lows, Washington's fascinating performance style, and what makes this film so different compared to the rest of Lee's filmography (17:09). Next, they cover Darren Aronofsky's ‘Caught Stealing,' starring Austin Butler and Zoë Kravitz; they both found it quite disappointing, to the point that they even discussed whether or not Austin Butler is a “leading man” (39:54). Finally, Sean is joined by the legendary filmmaker Spike Lee to talk about his new movie. Lee reflects on the first time he visited Akira Kurosawa's work and touches on what Kurosawa means to both himself and cinema at large, talks through Denzel Washington's brilliant improvisations in this film and explains why he is—in Lee's opinion—the greatest actor of all time, and explores what is missing from Hollywood and the filmmaking industry right now (1:07:01).

Spike Lee's Highest 2 Lowest is bold, stylish, funny, and frustrating all at once. In this episode, Trey and Kelsi explore Spike's return to the crime thriller with Denzel Washington and Jeffrey Wright grounding the story, and A$AP Rocky stepping in as a surprising antagonist. We dig into how the film tries to channel the social bite of Inside Man, and the moral weight of Kurosawa's High and Low, but often veers into goofy tangents, uneven tone, and surface-level commentary instead of the sharper critique Spike's known for.

On August 19, 2012, Tony Scott — the British filmmaker best known for high-octane blockbusters like Top Gun, Crimson Tide, and Man on Fire — died by suicide at the age of 68 in Los Angeles. In a career that stretched across three decades, Scott carved out a unique place in Hollywood as a master of adrenaline-fueled spectacle. With his signature visual style — kinetic camerawork, bold color palettes, and an editing pace that matched the heartbeat of his action sequences — he helped redefine what a mainstream action movie could feel like. From working with stars like Tom Cruise and Denzel Washington to pushing the technical limits of action cinema, Scott's influence continues to ripple through blockbuster filmmaking today.

For the first time in nineteen years, Oscar-winning director Spike Lee and Oscar-winning actor Denzel Washington have re-united for their fifth collaboration after Mo Better Blues, Malcolm X, He Got Game, and Inside Man.  Washington stars as David, a New York City music mogul with ONE goal at the outset of this story: to retain full control of the record label he had built over the past several decades to reconnect with the music.  However some other mysterious figure has other ideas as he calls David out of the blue claiming to suddently have kidnapped the mogul's son Trey (Aubrey Joseph) and he is demanding a LOT of money in return. :o In his corner is personal driver/bodyguard Paul played by Oscar-nominee Jeffrey Wright.  And what results is a high-energy thriller/musical/New York movie which also happens to be a loose remake of Akira Kurosawa's 1963 classic High and Low.    Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
