Get Reelisms Podcast Ep. 196: Zuzena Magsino on Breaking In, Community, AD Life, and AI in Film On episode 196 of the Get Reelisms podcast, hosts Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview actor and assistant director Zuzena Magzino about her path into entertainment, from show choir and dance auditions to overcoming fear of being recorded and posting social content. After a five-year hiatus and serious health issues, she returned via a 2021 TikTok Dunkin' casting call, booked the spot, and later moved to LA, emphasizing the importance of supportive circles, networking, persistence, and the reality that even “set” celebrities may struggle without financial literacy and protection from exploitation. The conversation covers filmmaking community, conflict resolution and chaos management on set, sexism and ego problems among crew, and concerns about AI replacing actors while acknowledging AI as a tool. They close with promotion for Getreelisms.com merchandise and an online film school.   About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWSix-Month Validation: A July 2026 test campaign with 10 AA NOVA prototypes preceded the order, lighter pack, at least equivalent performance versus Alta Ares' reference battery.High-Current Power: The AA NOVA pack uses 18 cylindrical 21700 GEN3 “high-current” cells (5,000 mAh each, 25C discharge rate, 125A per cell).Weight Advantage: Silicon-based cells delivered higher energy density than graphite, reducing onboard weight, critical for drone agility, acceleration, endurance, or payload.GEN4 In Development: Future packs could incorporate 6,000 mAh GEN4 “high-current” cells, targeting an increase in pack capacity over the current GEN3 design.NATO & French Army Traction: First GEN3 order for FPV drones destined for a French Army regiment announced in August 2026; discussions held with the NATO Energy Security Centre of Excellence in Vilnius regarding energy autonomy.STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONSThe counter-drone market is constrained by a single problem: battery weight limits flight time, payload, and responsiveness. Traditional graphite-anode cells struggle to deliver the power-to-weight ratio required for demanding interceptor missions, where every gram affects agility and every second of endurance matters. That's why Alta Ares spent nearly six months co-developing a custom solution with Novacium.Novacium's silicon-based anode technology addresses that constraint. By increasing energy density without adding weight, the AA NOVA pack can extend operational parameters, agility, acceleration, endurance, available payload, while maintaining the 25C discharge rate essential for high-speed maneuvers. For an interceptor drone designed to neutralize threats in flight, that advantage can translate directly into improved mission performance. It's also why Alta Ares and Novacium are already working on potential next-generation packs incorporating GEN4 cells.The timing is favourable, and the strategy is deliberate. Canadian officials have publicly discussed plans involving large-scale drone deployment. HPQ announced in 2025 that it had secured up to $3 million in federal funding to advance a 50-tonne-per-year silicon-based anode material production facility in Canada. The EU-Canada collaboration on defence and technology is accelerating. CEO Bernard Tourillon:"We're ecstatic about this press release. For the last six months, we've been skating around it, because we knew who we were talking with and the significance of what we were doing. But until we reached this milestone, until Novacium could name the client, it was difficult to be very clear. We've now gone through the wringer of being certified by a top drone manufacturer. And we strongly believe this could translate into more opportunities in both Europe and North America. This is the beginning of what we see as an inflection point. There's a massive demand, and we're now reaching the point where we have to start looking at what's going to be our best strategy to meet it."INVESTOR TAKEAWAYThis is not just another development test, it is a first commercial order for more than 100 AA NOVA packs from a NATO-engaged, DGA-selected defence company whose systems and software have been evaluated in real combat conditions. Novacium has progressed from lab-scale cells to defence-sector commercial orders in under two years. HPQ, as a 36.8% shareholder in Novacium and the exclusive North American license holder for its silicon-based anode technologies, stands to benefit from Novacium's European orders while it advances its own domestic production capacity with federal support. The transition from prototypes and qualification to an initial wave of commercial validation is underway. The next phase is scaling to meet demand, supported by policy tailwinds, defence procurement channels, and growing customer traction in drone and defence applications.

Feeling Stagnant During Radiation: Filmmaking, Control, and Creative Renewal On episode 195 of the Get Reelisms podcast, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen discuss Christine finishing week one of six weeks of radiation for an oligodendroglioma brain tumor, alongside fertility treatment, and how the invisible progress and grant rejections make her feel stagnant and ungrounded without being on set. A friend suggests shooting part of Christine's proof-of-concept short in her temporary “radiation camp” apartment near the treatment center, so she plans to film soon before symptoms worsen, and may ask for food donations for cast and crew. They recommend actors seek script-reading opportunities like the LA group Safe House, and reflect on imposter syndrome, conflict-of-interest when working with friends, and balancing creative joy with the job aspect of filmmaking. They also discuss The Artist's Way “morning pages,” creative routines, and mention seeing The Odyssey and Christopher Nolan's leadership at a DGA town hall.      About Christine W Chen: Christine W. Chen is a Taiwanese American filmmaker, Academy member (Short Films Branch), and versatile producer, director, and writer known for bold, character-driven storytelling.

Parce que… c'est l'épisode 0x33E! Préambule Il y a un son sur l'enregistrement de Pierre que je suis incapable de retirer sans réduire considérablement l'intelligibilité.

Café - Enquête au cœur de la recherche sur l'intelligence artificielle Description Cette description a été faite à l'aide de GLM 5.3 Flash, à partir de la transcription qui a été effectuée par ElevenLabs Scribev2. Aucune vérification humaine n'a été faite. Si vous découvrez des erreurs ou des inexactitudes, vous pouvez m'en faire part afin que je procède aux modifications appropriées. Un invité au parcours ancré dans le STIC Pierre Bienaimé, ingénieur en cybersécurité spécialisé en reverse engineering et passionné de CTF, rejoint l'émission en tant que membre du comité d'organisation de la conférence STIC. Il raconte son histoire d'amour avec le challenge qui accompagne cette conférence française, une rencontre qui remonte à 2011 et qui a littéralement orienté sa carrière professionnelle. Un format de challenge unique Le challenge STIC se distingue des CTF classiques par son format individuel et sa durée étendue. Lancé fin mars ou début avril, il laisse environ deux mois aux participants avant la conférence de juin. Impossible de savoir sur quoi on va tomber. Les thématiques récurrentes incluent le reverse, la crypto et l'exploitation, mais chaque édition réserve des surprises déstabilisantes, comme un challenge demandant de comprendre le schéma d'un FPGA. Pierre insiste sur le fait que personne ne peut être spécialiste de tout et que c'est justement cette difficulté assumée qui fait la valeur pédagogique du format. Une révélation de carrière En 2011, Pierre était stagiaire chez EADS, dans une équipe de chercheurs réputés qui l'ont encouragé à participer au challenge. Placé dans un contexte particulier, un genre de garage parisien sans Internet, isolé et disposant d'un temps libre infini, il s'est lancé à corps perdu. Au départ, il ne connaissait ni l'assembleur ni les registres comme EAX. Un mois plus tard, il construisait des ROP chains. Ce bond d'apprentissage fulgurant l'a convaincu d'abandonner l'idée de devenir développeur pour se consacrer à la cybersécurité. Depuis, il s'est imposé de participer chaque année, terminant quasiment toutes les éditions. L'apprentissage par le problème plutôt que par la théorie Pierre explique pourquoi ce format lui convient si bien. Il a toujours eu du mal avec l'enseignement traditionnel qui présente la théorie avant les exercices. Avec un CTF, l'ordre est inversé. Le problème arrive en premier, sans indication de méthode, et la motivation de le résoudre pousse à aller chercher soi-même les connaissances manquantes. Cette pioche active de la théorie, guidée par un objectif concret, fixe durablement les apprentissages, contrairement à un manuel lu sans contexte réel. Les write-ups, une mine d'or collective Autre singularité du STIC, chaque finisher doit produire un write-up détaillé. Le challenge ressemble à cinq ou six étapes d'un CTF classique reliées par une histoire, ce qui exige une vraie polyvalence. Une dizaine de personnes terminent chaque année. Lire ensuite comment les autres ont raisonné, découvert des raccourcis ou trouvé des astuces géniales constitue un apprentissage immense, surtout quand on a soi-même passé des heures sur ces problèmes. Pierre compare avec les write-ups de CTF courts qu'il a lus sans avoir tenté les épreuves et dont il a tout oublié deux jours plus tard. Une organisation tournante et communautaire Le challenge existe depuis 2009 et repose sur un petit noyau de passionnés. Traditionnellement, le gagnant d'une édition est invité à organiser la suivante, souvent accompagné de ses collègues. En 2025, la DGA a remporté le classement qualité, récompensant les meilleures solutions, et a conçu l'édition 2026. Pierre, désormais au comité d'organisation, encadre le règlement et veille à l'esprit du challenge plutôt qu'à sa conception, préférant être du côté des résolveurs. L'IA, l'éléphant dans la pièce de l'édition 2026 Les progrès fulgurants des LLM ont posé une vraie question aux organisateurs. En 2025, les IA échouaient encore sur le challenge. Pour 2026, l'équipe a hésité entre interdiction et laisser-faire. Le compromis retenu s'inspire de la règle de l'appel à un ami déjà présente dans le règlement. Demander de l'aide à une IA est autorisé, mais l'usage purement agentique, où une machine résout le challenge sans que l'humain comprenne ce qui se passe, place le participant hors concours. Les organisateurs veulent savoir ce que l'IA peut faire de manière autonome, sans pour autant la mélanger au classement humain. Ce que l'observation a révélé Les résultats ont été fascinants. Un agent autonome a dominé les premiers niveaux, identifiable dans les logs par des requêtes curl massives et désordonnées, avant de caler sur les épreuves finales et de se faire doubler par des humains. Son auteur développe des agents spécialisés en CTF. Le premier finisher, un ancien habitué du challenge, a utilisé l'IA de manière assistée. Elle lui a fait gagner du temps en résumant des publications académiques indigestes en crypto, mais l'a souvent égaré en exploitation, le forçant à la remettre sur la bonne voie. Conclusion des organisateurs, l'IA reste un outil qui accélère un expert sans encore résoudre le challenge seule. Contrôle impossible ou code d'honneur Pierre se méfie des contrôles antidopage, faciles à contourner pour un participant prudent travaillant hors ligne. Il préfère miser sur la bonne foi d'une communauté de niche motivée par le jeu et l'apprentissage plutôt que par la gloire. Plusieurs participants se sont d'ailleurs déclarés spontanément hors concours après avoir beaucoup usé de l'IA. Il espère aussi que le write-up, même rédigé par une IA, resterait peu convaincant aux yeux d'un novice incapable de valider son contenu. Un avenir incertain mais pas condamné L'ambiance est morose chez certains créateurs de CTF, découragés de concevoir des épreuves résolues en deux clics sans compréhension de leur beauté. Pierre nuance avec l'analogie des échecs, où l'ordinateur domine depuis longtemps sans tuer les compétitions humaines. Les joueurs s'entraînent avec les machines et la beauté du jeu survit. Le questionnement reste entier, de même que l'inquiétude d'un relâchement général de l'effort intellectuel, évoquée par l'animateur à travers l'image de WALL-E. Ressources pour apprendre Tous les write-ups depuis 2009 sont disponibles publiquement sur le site de la conférence. Si les parties en ligne des anciens challenges sont éteintes, les fichiers de départ et parfois le code d'infrastructure restent accessibles. Pierre avoue consulter régulièrement ces solutions, les siennes comme celles de monstres sacrés tels que Robert Xiao, ce Canadien capable de reconstituer la timeline de sa réflexion heure par heure, pour résoudre des problèmes rencontrés dans sa vie professionnelle.

n episode 194 of the Get Reelisms podcast, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen discuss Christine's recent health crisis: after an MRI on May 1, doctors found a brain tumor, and she is scheduled for surgery on May 19 to remove it. Christine describes sporadic focal seizures starting the previous summer, including brief left-side freezes while fully conscious, one occurring publicly at a Canon networking event and twice while driving, leading to her no longer being allowed to drive. They criticize the U.S. healthcare system, including receiving results via a CD and delayed medical follow-up, and note her surgery was expedited through her surgeon brother's connections. They use dark humor about naming the tumor “Tumi,” potential sketches, filmmaking memories, and plan a podcast pause until June while promoting getrealisms.com during recovery.   Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

In episode 193 of the Get Reelisms podcast, hosts Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen talk with Mylene “Mai” Briggs of Keelab Media, a producer, writer, director, marketer, and mom with production companies in Los Angeles and Ottawa. Mai and Christine share how they met through Film Girls Brunch and discuss navigating LA's isolating, competitive film scene by intentionally building community, including the origins and growth of Film Girls Brunch (founded by Imani and Kaiulani, later expanded with Mai). Mai describes burnout, single parenting, and starting her company for survival after exhausting film-industry hours and childcare costs, then working extreme schedules for flexibility. They swap first-client stories, reflect on learning without film school by saying yes and figuring it out, and Mai recounts high-pressure live multi-cam festival livestream work for Pique in Ottawa.   About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Fellowship App Hell, Strategic TV Directing Pitches, and Why Verticals Are the New Wild West On the Get Reelisms podcast, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen catch up on recent festival news and Christine's birthday, then dive into “fellowship app hell season,” comparing repeated lab applications and essay-writing to endlessly applying to colleges with no clear feedback. Christine shares she's applying to programs including Film Independent, Sundance Producing Lab, and WriteBack Rise, and discusses the demoralizing competition, lack of guarantees, and the need to budget time by stepping back from AD work to focus on directing and stronger applications. Adam explains reframing a Disney directing program pitch from choosing a favorite show to choosing a show that logically matches evidence in his portfolio and experience. They also recap a Scene Lab focused on verticals and discuss vertical video's growth, rising production value, democratized audience-driven discovery, and reduced gatekeeping compared to traditional Hollywood.    Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Karine Havas tenait deux postes simultanément avant de devenir CEO du groupe: CFO France chez Bureau Veritas et présidente de Capital Energy, une filiale opérationnelle dans la transition énergétique. C'est depuis cette position qu'elle répond à une question que beaucoup de directeurs financiers se posent sans la formuler : est-ce qu'un CFO peut devenir CEO, et par quel chemin ?Elle le dit à partir d'une expérience précise. Lorsqu'elle a rejoint Bureau Veritas, elle venait d'exercer une fonction de DGA chez IKEA avec un périmètre bien plus large. Sur le papier, ce mouvement ressemblait à un rétrécissement. Elle s'est aperçue que non : le rôle de CFO, quand il est pleinement occupé, dépasse largement ses fonctions régaliennes. Et c'est ce même Bureau Veritas qui lui a ensuite proposé la présidence d'une filiale, en plus de sa casquette financière.Son argument de fond : plus la fonction finance intègre les enjeux de transformation, plus le profil CFO se rapproche de celui du CEO. Un CFO qui ne sort pas de son périmètre chiffré, qui ne va pas chercher la performance aux côtés des opérationnels, ne construit pas les conditions de cette évolution. Le business partnering n'est pas un concept supplémentaire à intégrer, c'est le prérequis.Elle pousse ensuite sur un terrain que beaucoup de financiers n'ont pas encore pleinement investi : la RSE, le CSRD, l'ESG. Plutôt qu'une contrainte réglementaire de plus, elle y voit un levier de transformation du business model et une opportunité concrète pour la finance d'élargir son périmètre d'influence. Le CFO qui s'en saisit change de registre : il devient pilote de la création de valeur au sens large, ce que certains commencent à appeler le CVO, Chief Value Officer. C'est sur cette ligne-là que se trace, selon elle, le chemin vers la direction générale.Son message direct aux financiers qui se demandent si ce glissement les concerne : ne pas attendre que la réglementation impose le changement, s'en emparer maintenant.Je m'appelle Jonathan Plateau. Je suis passé par EY, Valeo et Safran et j'essaye d'engager des échanges et des réflexions sur nos métiers de la finance.Ma mission : vous offrir une expérience éducative, divertissante et parfois surprenante.Ce podcast est fait pour les directeurs financiers (DAF, CFO), les contrôleurs de gestion, qu'ils soient juniors ou confirmés, et qui souhaitent profiter des échanges entre pairs pour enrichir leur pratique de la finance au quotidien et tendre vers le business partner.Joignez-vous à notre communauté passionnée qui explore chaque facette du contrôle de gestion et du business partner.N'oubliez pas que la finance, c'est aussi une question de mindset !N'hésitez pas à partager vos interrogations sur nos discussions ou sur le podcast.

Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear — the popular two-term Democrat in a deep-red state and a name increasingly floated for 2028 — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that opens with Kentucky's famous Fancy Farm Picnic and the increasingly countercultural idea that political disagreement shouldn't make people enemies. Beshear turns pointed on Mitch McConnell, who he says has been absent for six weeks without speaking to him, arguing that McConnell has a fundamental duty to level with the people of Kentucky about his condition.. Beshear notes the governor has no authority to declare a vacancy, calls on John Thune to help put the concerns to rest, and observes pointedly that if the situation were reversed, McConnell would be ruthlessly tactical about it — and that the right should arguably be angrier, since it's one fewer vote for the GOP agenda. Beshear reflects at length and with real emotion on the COVID years, which he calls the war of our time with a higher casualty rate than most Americans appreciate, credits Kentucky's expanded Medicaid with keeping the state from running out of hospital beds, and warning that Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" will close 35 hospitals in Kentucky alone. He's sharply critical of Rand Paul for dragging Fauci into character-assassination hearings while staying conspicuously silent on McConnell, and reminds listeners it was Trump who ordered governors to shut down the economy, not Fauci. The conversation turns to Beshear's political philosophy and the road ahead for Democrats. He rejects the "moderate" label in favor of "pragmatic," arguing that the constant battle to label everyone misses how much more complicated reality actually is. Beshear makes the case that Democrats don't win by becoming a Democratic version of McConnell or Trump, that the party needs to be the party of making the economy work again, and that it should champion structural reforms like campaign finance amendments, outlawing gerrymandering, and directly electing the president. He's visibly frustrated with Democrats who blame other Democrats when Republicans are the ones doing the damage — there's no time for "woulda-couldas," he argues, when Trump and the GOP are inflicting this much harm. As a leader in the Democratic Governors Association, Beshear lays out where he sees real opportunity: big resources heading into Georgia, the critical importance of Katie Hobbs winning in Arizona to ensure a fair 2028 election, and the DGA's willingness to spend anywhere it can win. He addresses the data center backlash as fundamentally rooted in anxiety about AI and big tech's failure to talk to the communities it moves into, and stays characteristically coy about his own 2028 ambitions.

Chuck Todd argues Republicans and the White House are frantically trying to manufacture headlines about the past precisely because the actual news of the present is terrible for the GOP, and because the very issues that got Trump elected are the ones he's now ignoring. Democrats are winning heading into the midterms, TChuck says; the only real question is by how much, which is exactly why Republicans are so desperate to feed their base culture-war red meat as a distraction. But the story Chuck argues is being dangerously underplayed is the Iran war, which is no longer a regional conflict at all: close to thirty countries have been directly involved, multiple nations have been hit, and the Iran and Ukraine wars have effectively merged through shared supply chains — Russia has launched thousands of Iranian-made drones at Ukraine, improved and manufactured them, and is now shipping them back to Iran, while Ukrainian air defense teams have been redeployed to the Middle East and the American stockpile of interceptor missiles has been so massively depleted that commanders are rationing them. He calls the war the dumbest mistake a president has made in decades, while rising oil prices help both Iran and Russia.. It's not World War III, he cautions, but it's genuinely hard to see how it ends, and Congress should be singularly focused on it and simply isn't. He then pivots to what he calls a politics of AI that hasn't been invented yet, where the public is way ahead of the politicians: 72% of Americans have used AI in the past three months and like it, but the vast majority don't trust big tech or the AI companies, and the fierce backlash against data centers is really the manifestation of a deeper anger ever since tech companies stopped trying to improve lives and started maximizing engagement. The public isn't rejecting AI, he argues, it's rejecting the technologists, and Trump has planted himself firmly on the side of the tech companies over the public. He closes by lamenting that political energy is being spent on Fauci rather than pandemic preparedness — before quick hits on Todd Achilles getting a one-on-one race in Idaho, Seth Bodnar leading in Montana if the Democrat can be coaxed into dropping out, and the question hanging over Michigan: if Abdul El-Sayed loses, will it have been because of Mamdani's Israel speech? Then, Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear — the popular two-term Democrat in a deep-red state and a name increasingly floated for 2028 — joins the Chuck Toddcast for a wide-ranging conversation that opens with Kentucky's famous Fancy Farm Picnic and the increasingly countercultural idea that political disagreement shouldn't make people enemies.

On Get Reelisms Podcast episode 191, hosts Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview filmmaker/producer/AD and occasional actor Avid (“Avi”) from Puppy Love Productions about becoming a “multi-tool” on set, especially in vertical productions. Avi recounts starting as a high-school editor on Final Cut Pro 7, continuing filmmaking while majoring in chemistry/biochemistry due to family pressure, learning directing performances through an improv-actor collaborator, and falling into first AD work via a 48-hour challenge and a Sony-financed short where a seasoned producer taught him set lingo. They discuss on-set judgment and delegation, phone rules, interns learning walkie etiquette, and how vertical storytelling uses cliffhangers, paywalls, CPI/client-driven scenes, and evolving efficiency systems. Avi also explains creating 3Line Studio, notable clients, a stolen box truck recovery using AirTags, and plugs a vertical Scene Lab event at 3Line Studio on April 29 (7–10 PM).

Verticals, Unions, and AI: The Wild West of New Filmmaking | Get Reelisms Ep. 190 In episode 190 of the Get Reelisms podcast, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen talk about Christine's desert trip to see a meteor shower, her deliberate hiatus from AD work to regain creative peace, and her return to making fast, low-budget sketch comedy—especially vertical YouTube/Instagram sketches—through groups like Banana TV and a 10-episode series with her friend Myleene about friends whose hangouts always turn into film work. They discuss the rise of union and branded verticals, why creators are embracing the format as a new storytelling medium, and how to improve quality through writing and framing. The conversation covers intense vertical set workflows, block shooting and child actor restrictions, the push-pull between budgets and union standards, concerns about AI replacing art versus using AI as a logistics tool, and worries about declining literacy from students using ChatGPT. They close with GetReelisms.com plugs and tease the next guest from Puppy Love Productions.  Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Tell us what you though of the episode

In memory of the great James Borrows we rebroadcasting this episode of "Dont Be Alone with Jay Kogen". We talk with James Burrows about his reign as Hollywood's greatest sitcom director, being the son of Abe Burrows, the genetics of comedy, his book "Directed by James Burrows", "Cheers", "Will & Grace", "The Mary Tyler Moore Show", "Taxi", "Friends", the scripts that make him want to direct, the ones that don't, his amazing memory, his humble beginnings, the decade it took him to learn how to direct, working with geniuses like James L. Brooks, Chuck Lorre, and Kohan & Mutchnick, and Andy Kaufman. And Jimmy explains how his two best friends are Al Michaels and Bruce Springsteen. BIO: James Burrows was one of television's most respected and honored creative talents. Over his distinguished career, Burrows was the recipient of eleven Emmys, five Directors Guild of America Awards, the 1996 American Comedy Awards' Creative Achievement Award, the Television Critics Association's Career Achievement Award, and in 2006 he was inducted into the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences' Hall of Fame and was honored by the US Comedy Arts Festival with their Career Tribute Award. He was the recipient of 22 nominations for the Directors Guild of America Award, thus bestowing him the honor of being the most nominated director in the history of television at the Guild. He was honored by the DGA with the Inaugural 2014 Lifetime Achievement Award in Television. In November of 2015 he directed his 1,000th episode, which was recognized by a TV Special on NBC in January of 2016. Burrows' success as the director of television pilots was legendary. He directed the first two episodes of the "Frasier" reboot's second season, and wrapped the pilot "Mid-Century Modern" for Fox, which went to series. In January of 2020, he received his fifth DGA Award for directing the Emmy Award-winning show "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #1: Norman Lear's All in the Family and The Jeffersons." He was also asked back to direct "Live in Front of a Studio Audience #3: Diff'rent Strokes and The Facts of Life" in December of 2021. In June of 2022, he published his autobiography, "Directed by James Burrows," which received considerable attention and praise from the industry. Burrows was probably best known as co-creator, executive producer and director of the critically acclaimed series "Cheers." The hit show, which aired for 11 seasons, is tied for the most nominated Comedy series in the Television Academy's history and is in third place for most Emmys received by a Comedy Series. Burrows also received numerous awards for his work on "Will & Grace," "Frasier," "Friends," "Wings," "Night Court," "Taxi," and "Dear John." For the first time in 25 years, he returned to the stage in the spring of 1998 to direct the highly acclaimed "The Man Who Came to Dinner" at the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago, starring John Mahoney. Burrows learned his trade from the very best, the legendary writer/director Abe Burrows, whose noted career included such classics as "Guys and Dolls," "How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying," and "Cactus Flower." Born in Los Angeles and raised in New York, Burrows graduated from Oberlin College and continued his education at Yale, where he earned a Master of Fine Arts degree. Burrows relocated to Hollywood to work as a dialogue coach for "O.K. Crackerby!," a short-lived television series starring Burl Ives. When the show ended, he returned to New York and initially worked as a stage manager before directing several off-Broadway shows, such as "The Castro Complex," and stock productions of "The Odd Couple" and "Never Too Late." In 1974, Burrows moved back to the West Coast when he was invited to visit MTM Productions in Los Angeles and offered a job directing an episode of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show." Mr. Burrows and his wife, Debbie, resided in Los Angeles and between them they had four daughters. He passed away on June 19, 2026. He left an indelible mark on American television. He will be remembered and missed. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On the Get Reelisms Podcast, filmmakers Madam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview Austin director Jon Vallet about his new film American Dollhouse, which just premiered at South by Southwest and launched its festival run with an Austin “film family” crew. Vallet says the movie uses a character-driven, proto-slasher approach inspired by films like Psycho and Black Christmas, using modern anxieties about public spaces feeling unsafe and the dissonance of daily life in America as thematic fuel. He shares the logline: a woman inherits her childhood home, hoping to escape debt, but the house is falling apart and a doppelgänger-like neighbor becomes obsessively dangerous, escalating into a Christmas-set slasher. Vallet discusses prioritizing actors' performances, early sound and scoring collaboration, shooting on Sony Venice in 4:3 with natural light and night-for-day, a 15-day December 2024 shoot, a difficult third-act set build, and adapting scripts and schedules to budget and resources.   Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen celebrate reaching 188 episodes of the Get Reelisms filmmaking podcast and reflect on nearly six to seven years of documenting their careers. They discuss recent Oscars results, including a tie and Sam Davis winning after their interview, and debate why genre films like Sinners may struggle for Best Picture despite winning Best Original Screenplay, while One Battle After Another wins Best Picture and PTA earns Best Director. They talk about attention spans, frustration with people assuming indie films are “on Netflix,” and Christine's behind-the-scenes photo from Shakespeare on the Range being featured in the Academy Museum, a milestone linked to early career growth. Christine shares her decision to pause First AD work to focus on directing, developing a sketch-based branded micro-series, and adapting to vertical content trends.

Sam Davis on Making Oscar-Nominated Short ‘The Singers' Without a Script, Casting Viral Buskers, and Shooting on Film On Get Reelisms podcast episode 187, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview Los Angeles–based filmmaker Sam Davis, who is campaigning his live-action short The Singers, nominated for an Academy Award and streaming on Netflix. Davis traces the project back 3–3.5 years to reading a George Saunders breakdown of a Russian short story, then adapting it into a modern bar-set film starring first-time actors found on social media, which took about 18 months to cast due to scam concerns and trust-building. He describes a documentary-influenced, unscripted approach with long improvised takes, constant sound recording, layered audio, and shooting on 35mm film for intentionality, while noting the costs of film and travel. The four-day shoot faced setbacks, including a lead dropping out two days prior. Davis discusses song selection, costume strategy, collaborating with a small crew, balancing documentary and narrative work, and developing future projects, including a long-term feature documentary.   About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Monica Brady has spent 26 years doing something that didn't exist when she started: honoring the people who make movie trailers. Co-founded with her sister Evelyn on a boat to Fort Sumter in 1999, the Golden Trailer Awards grew from a scrappy DGA screening room show (running on two Avids, fingers crossed) into the industry's premier celebration of trailer craft. In this episode, Monica traces the full arc of the GTAs, from a pre-broadband era when trailer editors were essentially invisible, to a show that now spans dozens of categories and serves as a genuine career launchpad for aspiring creatives. 5 Key Takeaways The GTAs were born out of necessity, not ambition. Monica and Evelyn weren't trying to build an institution. They were trying to find a trailer editor for their student film and couldn't. No directory, no resource, no awards show existed. So they created one. What was meant to "run on autopilot" is now 26 years in. The show evolves as the industry evolves. From 23 categories in 1999 (including one they couldn't even explain) to dedicated tracks for streaming series, video games, and social trailer bites, the GTAs have always followed the craft. Categories don't get added by committee — they get added when the industry shows up and says "we cut these like theatrical trailers." Music is the most powerful recall tool in the trailer editor's kit. Monica keeps coming back to music as the thread connecting memory, emotion, and ticket sales. Editors who also play instruments aren't a coincidence — music is math, and the pattern recognition required for both is the same muscle. The trailer industry is uniquely positioned for the AI era. Most industries are bracing for an onslaught of AI-generated content. Monica's case: who better to make sense of a flood of footage than people who have spent decades being handed raw material with no script, no direction, and a tight deadline? The trailer editor's core skill is exactly what the moment will demand. Standout Quotes "We sent out some applications, and the rest will run on autopilot. And 26 years later, you're looking at the autopilots." "Who but the trailer industry have had a decades-long start at taking nonsensical footage about a topic they know nothing about — no script, no direction — and crafting a story together?" "These trailer editors are artists. And that is one of the things that sets the human being apart from whatever's coming at us right now." "Everybody help each other. We're here a very short amount of time on this planet. Let's just make the most of it."

erticals, Hustle, and the Future of Filmmaking (Get Reelisms Ep. 186) On Get Reelisms podcast episode 186, filmmakers Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen discuss being exhausted but grateful for steady work while others in Austin and Texas struggle despite talk of bigger film tax incentives. They say vertical short-form productions are “single handedly saving Hollywood,” with money coming from markets including China, and Christine notes speaking Mandarin helps her communicate with clients as an AD and director. They describe overlapping AD prep across productions, constant schedule demands on rare days off, and how vertical work favors indie-style problem solvers over union workflows. They explain vertical monetization as “Farmville”-style gamification with addictive cliffhangers and paywalls per short episode, shaping soapy storytelling tropes, while also noting vertical framing can be visually strong. They mention Darren Aronofsky's AI film "On This Day, 1776" and briefly debate AI as a tool versus making full films with it, then preview an upcoming guest, Oscar-nominated short filmmaker Sam Davis ("The Singers" on Netflix).   Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

Star Flare: Reclaiming Agency, Building a Fun Set, and the Pain of Crowdfunding (Get Reelisms Ep. 185) On Get Reelisms Podcast episode 185, hosts Adam Chase Rani and Christine Chen interview actor-writer-producer Laura Ricci about making her fantasy romance short film Star Flare. Laura describes feeling powerless as an actor and deciding to create her own work after living in Los Angeles for nearly three years, with wildfires raging and Trump newly inaugurated, leading her to write the script in a week and produce her first “real” film. They discuss designing the project around practical constraints (woods location, small cast, one day, limited costume changes) while still aiming big for the genre, and Laura's priority of creating a safe, fun set that strengthens relationships and took care of the team. Laura calls crowdfunding the hardest part, recounting constant posting, emotional strain, and mixed results despite support and a stranger's $1,000 pledge. Christine directed and is editing; they talk about post-production, sound design's importance, and meeting through a TikTok call for a director.   Hosts: Adam Rani (@adamthechase)  & Christine Chen (@cchenmtf)  About Christine W Chen: Christine W.

How do the latest Dietary Guidelines for Americans (DGA) and the American Heart Association (AHA) recommendations compare, and why do they differ?In this video, Dr. Bret Scher breaks down where these two major nutrition guidelines align, where they diverge, and what that means for your health. At the center of the conversation is a key question: should health be defined by a single lab marker, or by a broader view of metabolic function?In this video, you'll learn:Why LDL cholesterol is only one piece of cardiovascular riskWhy the two guidelines differ on saturated fat, red meat, and full-fat dairyThe role of markers like fasting insulin, triglycerides, HDL, and body compositionHow different dietary patterns influence metabolic health in different waysWhy recommendations around saturated fat and full-fat dairy remain controversialHow historical beliefs and evolving evidence shape nutrition guidelinesThis discussion also highlights a critical point: nutrition science is complex, and population-wide recommendations don't always translate clearly to individual health.While both organizations emphasize whole foods and reducing processed sugars and refined grains, the DGA reflects a growing recognition that there is more than one way to eat well, while the AHA continues to take a more prescriptive stance on saturated fat and animal-based foods.

The tentative deal between the Writers Guild and Hollywood's major studios has quelled fears of another strike — all while shaking up the major guilds' contract cycle. Elaine Low, Sean McNulty and Natalie Jarvey break down the key terms, including a $321 million infusion into the WGA health plan (alongside higher deductibles and premiums) and a shift to a four-year bargaining agreement rather than the usual three. The deal — and its limited movement on AI — will shape not just the upcoming SAG and DGA negotiations, but the industry's broader trajectory. Plus, the trio looks at a rare bright spot: box office ticket sales are up 23 percent year over year, fueled by hits like Super Mario Galaxy Movie, Project Hail Mary and other family-friendly fare.

Have you seen the new 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans and wondered if you should follow them? You may have seen talk about them on the news and social media, and don't know quite what to believe. The slogan of eating more ‘real foods' sounds good though, and the New Pyramid diagram seems to show that all foods - including butter, steak, whole milk and cheese – would be fine to eat and that we don't really need to worry about the amounts eaten. But DO we need to worry? And what about the recommendations about protein and nutritional adequacy issues in vegan and vegetarian diets?   Let's talk about this. In this episode, we'll take a deeper dive into the New Dietary Guidelines for Americans and look at 3 more KEY things you need to know about them, to inform your own health.

"You're bombarded with all these messages. Try to think of the one that means the most to you. Is it your kid's health? Is it your health? Is it the environment? Is it nutrition? What resonates with you, and helps you make a shift you feel good about?" The Dietary Guidelines for Americans shape how a nation eats, but the science, politics, and industry forces behind them are rarely discussed. In this can't-miss episode, renowned nutrition scientist Dr. Christopher Gardner, Professor of Medicine at Stanford University and lead researcher of the Netflix Twin Experiment, pulls back the curtain on the latest update: how it was crafted, what's shifted, and where it diverges from the evidence. Dr. Gardner helps us separate fact from manipulation and noise, and offers practical, realistic takeaways for building a balanced, sustainable way of eating. What we discuss in this episode:  Dr. Gardner's experience working on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. What the dietary guidelines would look like if they strictly reflected current scientific evidence. The influence of the dairy and meat industries on the DGA. Ingredients and additives in processed foods that are designed to drive consumption. Tips for improving your diet. Research comparing Beyond Meat to pasture-raised organic red meat. How much vitamin B12 you actually need. Saturated fats in plant foods compared with saturated fats in animal products. The potential of diet to reverse harmful health patterns.

PRE-ORDER the upcoming book now: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/the-bookThe new Food Pyramid is released in the United States, turning the old one on its point. Regardless of how you feel about the administration it is released under, the focus has shifted from carbs and demonizing fats to centering protein, vegetables, nuts, beans and healthy fats. Camille reminds us that it is a guideline, not a hard and fast rule, because diverse bodies have diverse needs. And, she reminds us, science is always evolving, and should be questioned, so this will not be the last food pyramid. Luis is excited about the shift because so many illnesses, such as diabetes, high cholesterol, anxiety and cognitive decline can be traced to excess glucose, a byproduct of all those refined cards we were told to eat in the old mythology (funded by cigarette companies). All those ultra processed foods leave us with less macro-nutrients, therefore less nourished, and with less GLP1 in the body telling us when are a satiated. At first glance eating a balanced whole foods diet might seem more expensive, but considering long term health consequences and quality of life impacts, the balanced approach is economical. Gleefully, beans hold rank in the new pyramid. Luis and Camille indulge some excitement over this point. They also discuss grass-fed versus mass produced meat, what they think of the inclusion of dairy, and the proportions that are recommended. Dive in to geek out with Luis and Camille as they explore this new dietary recommendation. You can view the updated Food Pyramid PDF here: https://cdn.realfood.gov/DGA.pdfYou can register for the FREE Food Therapy session here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/events/nutrition-for-your-kids You can read more about, and register for, Camille's Embodying My Cycles & Rhythms 6-month group here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/cycles-and-rhythms-slow-group You can read more about, and register for, the retreat at Blue Spirit Costa Rica here: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/blue-spirit----You can learn more on the website: https://www.holisticlifenavigation.com/ You can follow Luis on Instagram @holistic.life.navigationQuestions?
