The fallout from the Lindsay Clancy case has created a bizarre (yet valid) relationship litmus test, and it opens a much bigger conversation about trust, personal responsibility, paranoia, and the slow disappearance of polite society. Then we lighten things up with the strange side of MILLENNIAL adulthood, Batman's fear of bats, an almost-total lunar eclipse happening tonight, bizarre discoveries in space, internet oddities, and whatever else finds its way onto the desk.

Chris Paul and Burning Bright take on the 1997 Val Kilmer vehicle, and the verdict lands fast, this one is rough. Expect an entertaining teardown of a movie that was clearly built to launch a franchise and immediately fizzled, plus a genuine deep dive into Val Kilmer's eccentric career and the strange choices that pushed him away from Batman sequels and James Bond toward this instead. From there the conversation drifts into nuclear fusion, Russian oligarchy talk, and a pretty entertaining read on the film's ending as unintentional propaganda, complete with an NGO cameo that gets roasted hard. There's also some current events woven in around energy prices and manufactured scarcity. Stick around for boosts, a Vegas meetup mention, and next week's pick, a Depression era bootlegging drama with a killer cast neither host has seen.
Aries Spears and Andy Steinberg are back for another unfiltered episode of Spears & Steinberg. This week: a Cactus Corn popcorn taste test kicks things off before the guys dive into the Lindsay Clancy postpartum psychosis case, the protests and who's really to blame, the WNBA dildo-throwing controversy and the trans athletes in women's sports debate, LA's homeless crisis (including a proposed city-funded "relief" program), a Batman vs. Superman business breakdown, Marvel vs. DC villains, and a raw conversation about race in America sparked by some viral clips. Aries also tells the story of getting passed over for SNL in '98 — and what Darrell Hammond later told him about it.

There is so much in this episode. We are not a family of sports fans but we do go back to 1919 in the Elevator of History to discuss the 1919 World Series between the Chicago White Sox and the Cincinatti Reds. We talk about how some players agreed to lose for money, some players weren't entirely sure what they agreed to and eventually saw baseball install a commissioner that banned all eight men involved forever. It changed the sport of baseball and while there have been other scandals in the sport, none felt as big or as impactful. All this and tangents on Batman cartoons and the movie Big Trouble in Little China among others. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Finally, a dong! The second episode of Lanterns has naked aliens, a suspicious town hall meeting, a freeway foot chase, a strange bird and a ton of lore getting dropped on the heads of unknowing normies. We talk about how this show is doing a great job of being something non-superhero folks want to watch while also getting in more nerdy background stuff than almost any other show or movie.Before that: Tom Holland is rich! Is Batman being blocked by Paramount? Could The Odyssey be making even more money if it left out one F bomb? All this and more!

Together they discuss their love for this first installment that would become overshadowed by its world-changing sequel, the public doubt in the franchise after Batman & Robin (which IS good), the difference between Bruce Wayne and Tony Stark, a more-than stacked cast (Rob Roy! Oppenheimer! Roy Batty! Alfred! Katie Holmes!), overcoming fear, lots and lots of bats, and so much more on this fear toxin-huffing episode of the Friendchise Podcast!

Dale Jr. and Amy are back with another episode of Bless Your ‘Hardt, and this one takes plenty of unexpected turns. The two talk about Dale Sr.'s intimidating presence at home, including a story from one of Dale Jr.'s childhood hunting trips that proves you couldn't get much past his dad. They also recap a wild Costco trip that somehow ends with a new water cooler, talk about questionable grocery-store samples and debate the proper way to eat at a restaurant bar. Then Dale shares the embarrassing story of running out of gas while picking up the girls, Amy reveals what happened when she had to pump gas on the farm, and the crew discusses whether guys actually know when they're being hit on. Plus, Halloween planning begins as Dale and Amy try to settle on a superhero costume, with Batman, Robin, Cat Woman, He-Man and the Incredible Hulk all entering the conversation. It's another round of random stories, family chaos and plenty of laughs. Check out Dirty Mo Media on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoMedia Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

My guest this week is writer and historian Jack Shoulder. You might know him from his daily social media posts focusing on butts from across art history, or for his upcoming book Museum Hotties… which is about exactly what it sounds like. As a kid, Jack's interest in classical sculpture was inspired, in part, by the muscular contours of superhero costumes… and much of his work today is an exploration of how that's an interest shared by many folks over thousands of years. And sometimes, that means fighting against conservative forces in the art world who don't want to admit just how queer art has always been. We'll have that interview in a moment. First a quick heads up that I have a new YouTube video coming this weekend about a Broadway director responsible for bringing tons of queer characters to must-see-TV in the 90s. To catch that new video, make sure you're subscribed at https://YouTube.com/mattbaume. Also I hope you'll join me for weekly livestreams every Sunday on Twitch.

So much better than we expected! Natalie Grace in Lee Cronin’s The Mummy (2026) ★★★★ The first half of 2026 certainly made a statement in the horror genre. Reverberations will be felt across Hollywood as studios reassess what constitutes a blockbuster. The recent critical success of Sinners, Weapons, and The Substance appears to be bearing fruit. The results may have led to a diverse slate of offerings for 2026, and it is reflected in the wide array of horror offerings so far this year. If variety is your preference, then you have been in luck, so far. The unimaginable financial and critical success of Obsession and Backrooms, particularly given their low cost, have re-written the horror producer’s playbook, and will have a lasting impact for years to come. The Scariest Things evaluated what we’ve seen so far, and have come back with a report card of our favorites. The Mid Major – Large Indie Productions: It will be interesting to do an autopsy of 2026’s horror fare when we do our year end assessment. This year’s crop has been notably light on mid-major productions so far. The roaring successes we’ve seen thus far have been from the deep indie filmmakers. Backrooms, Undertone, Hokum, and Obsession. All original titles, and produced for less than $5 million. These are not the type of films you would typically predict would be box office hits. But, they outperformed any reasonable expectation, particularly startling for Backrooms and Obsession, which will have cinema economists trying to figure out the alchemy. The Major Studios: There were only a few major studio franchise sequels this year. All of them capable, but none of them superseding their source material. Scream 7 did very well at the box office, but it failed to make a big impression. Evil Dead Burn was a very violent, very intense outing that didn’t connect in the way its predecessors have. Scary Movie also did well on its $30 million budget, earning $210 million, its long layoff didn’t hurt its popularity, despite the derivative humor. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple was a hit with critics (including our own Liz Williams) but it’s turn from zombies may have hurt it in the box office, as it probably will not make its budget back. The notable big comeback was Lee Cronin’s The Mummy, which gives horror fans hope that Universal has gotten their monsterverse back on track, and remembered how to deliver a vicious movie with a good story. The Festival Circuit: Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to get out to as many film festivals this year as we would have liked, but we still managed to review a lot of great small indie horror films. Our traditional rotation of SXSW, Overlook, Portland Horror, and Popcorn Frights all provided very interesting films from emerging filmmakers. Even the bigger festival this year were heavy on small indie productions, and there were a lot of good offerings. We didn’t discuss all of them in our Podcast, but you can review a lot of the movies we saw with links on the images below. There is an emerging trend of release schedules for many of the best independent horror films, relative to the festival circuit. Open at SXSW (Or sometimes Sundance), get some buzz, go to Overlook to validate the buzz, and then release in the early summer. It can be a big momentum builder. Last year it was The Ugly Stepsister (Oscar Nom), and Good Boy that were the big beneficiaries of that combination. This year it was Obsession, Hokum, and Leviticus. Sometimes Panic Fest will factor into the equation, depending on when runs relative to Overlook. Popcorn Frights still brought a massive catalogue for viewing, but this year was more reliant on reperatory films. Some of my favorite films this year were horror adjacent, and all of their streaming content was small indie productions. Our favorite local festival, The Portland Horror Film Festival had an unusually large amount of feature films, and the best part was that almost all of the directors participated in the festival. We were fortunate to get interviews with all of them. Check out our Podcasts for the interviews. It was a diverse group of films, and not a dud among them. What is Still Coming in 2026? Probably the most intriguing film still due out is a new take on Resident Evil by Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian and Weapons. This is a major tonal shift for Sony. No more Mia Jovovic or Paul W.S. Anderson. Video game translations are usually dubious, and the franchise squandered its potential. It became more superhero and less horror. However, Sony is gambling that with the right creator, it might revitalize the legacy, and Cregger may inject real scares into this franchise for the first time since the original. We shall see. The trailer looks great. Other Mommy, which arrives on October 9, has some incredibly disturbing visuals. Jessica Chastain stars, and Rob Savage (Host) directs. This uncanny-valley movie came late to my radar and is intriguing. Later this August, the Insidious franchise is issuing Insidious: Out of the Further. Lin Shaye returns, Leigh Whannell writes this, and it has a banger trailer. This franchise has maintained some of the scariest PG-13 fare, but the sequels have been a gradual decline in quality. We’ll see how this goes. Beware Boiúna might give us the Anaconda movie we wish we got earlier this year, and wipe the slate clean from the Jack Black/Paul Rudd disappointment. It’s R-rated, and features reliable scream queen Jessica Rothe, along with Logan Marshall-Green and Kiana Madeira in the Amazon. The trailer impressed me with the snake’s monstrousness. Another fascinating man-vs-nature survival tale is Whalefall, a terrifying concept in which a scuba diver is in jeopardy of being consumed by a sperm whale if the giant squid the whale has snagged doesn’t kill him first. Clayface will attempt to bridge the superhero and horror genres, which is no easy feat. Will it have enough horror for horror fans, and will it have enough fealty to the Batman universe to appeal to the comic book fans? Mike Flanagan wrote it, and it promises real R-rated body horror, so it could be very interesting. Lastly, Robert Eggers’ period piece Werwulf is getting the full Eggers treatment, in monochrome and as moody as you could possibly want. Hopefully it will get the stink of the Wolf Man out of our popcorn. Just give me a great transformation scene, please. Keep an eye out for It Ends, a festival darling from 2025 which is finally getting a limited release this year. It is a brilliant, if melancholy purgatory metaphor. If you enjoyed Backrooms, you should check this film out if you are lucky enough to have it showing in a theater near you. Of course, some smaller films will come out of the shadows and inevitably make our end-of-the-top-10 lists, but this is what we know so far.

We start with a little baseball nostalgia and somehow ends with us debating whether a man would trade a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders—which, honestly, is a pretty accurate summary of the intellectual journey you've signed up for with this funny podcast.The crew kicks things off after learning Daryl Strawberry was spotted in the stands shaking hands with an old teammate, which naturally gets everybody talking baseball, Strawberry's career, and his St. Louis-area connection. From there, we smoothly transition—as only a professional broadcasting operation like ours can—into one of the most stressful decisions a parent can make: where the heck is your kid going to college?Rizz is getting ready to hit the road for Fayetteville and is making a strong sales pitch for the University of Arkansas. Moon brings his own college-tour experience to the table, including some serious love for Tuscaloosa and the University of Alabama campus. Rafe weighs in on Fayetteville, Madison, Laramie and more as the guys break down a ranking of the best college towns in America.Ann Arbor takes the top spot, but that doesn't stop the crew from debating Arizona State, Virginia, Florida, Florida State, Wisconsin, Berkeley, Purdue, Wyoming and Illinois. There are beautiful campuses, brutal winters, business schools, Walmart money and the eternal parental dream of convincing your kid that the school YOU like is obviously the school THEY should like. Parenting!Then we arrive in Florida.And things immediately get stupid.It's time for Fake News or Florida, the game where contestants have to decide whether a ridiculous headline actually happened in Florida or whether the show made it up. The problem is that writing fake Florida headlines is nearly impossible because actual Florida keeps producing material that sounds like it was written by three raccoons sharing a laptop.Was a woman dressed as a hot dog arrested after covering a neighbor's car in toilet paper? Did police arrest Chuck E. Cheese while he was still in costume? Did someone throw an alligator through a drive-thru window? Did a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog interrupt somebody doing a crossword puzzle? And, most importantly, how much faith should anyone place in Moon as a lifeline?The answers become increasingly concerning.We also encounter a runaway kangaroo, a rainbow-painted manatee statue, a man hiding a gun under silicone breasts, a burglar with a live ferret stuffed down his pants, hundreds of mysteriously delivered shower curtains and the possibility of a rattlesnake-for-chicken-tenders barter economy.Moon spends much of the game carefully analyzing every detail, constructing thoughtful arguments and then discovering that Florida does not recognize the laws of logic. It's like watching Sherlock Holmes investigate a gas-station parking lot at 2 a.m.This funny podcast packs baseball talk, college-town arguments, listener chaos, bizarre headlines, St. Louis humor and enough Florida news to make you wonder whether the state should simply start issuing press releases titled, “You're Not Going To Believe This One Either.”It's another episode of The Rizzuto Show where celebrity and sports talk collide with weird news, sarcastic humor and the kind of daily comedy that probably shouldn't count as educational—but technically you will learn several things.Mostly about ferrets.Come for Daryl Strawberry and the college debate. Stay for the moment everyone has to seriously consider whether someone tried to exchange a live rattlesnake for chicken tenders.That's the kind of journalism this funny podcast is brave enough to tackle.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Meeting Don Mattingly, First Pitches, Daryl Strawberry was apparently in the stands, college students are heading back to campus, parents everywhere are questioning their financial decisions, and Florida has once again decided that normal behavior is merely a suggestion. Welcome to another episode of The Rizzuto Show, the comedy podcast where one innocent conversation can make several deeply unnecessary turns before anyone has a chance to stop it.The show kicks off with Daryl Strawberry after video surfaces of the former MLB star crossing paths with an old teammate. That naturally gets Rizz thinking about what would happen if Strawberry suddenly appeared in front of him — because apparently meeting one baseball hero wasn't enough emotional trauma for one week.From there, we move into college season. Parents are loading up cars, kids are heading back to school, and the crew starts debating the best college towns in America. Fayetteville gets plenty of love as Rizz talks about an upcoming Arkansas visit, while Moon makes a strong case for Tuscaloosa and the conversation wanders through Bloomington, Ann Arbor, Tempe, Madison, Charlottesville, Gainesville, Tallahassee, Laramie and Urbana-Champaign.There are legitimate discussions about business schools, campus life and tuition. There are also judgments based on weather, stadiums, sandwiches and whether your kid will feel like college is just “13th grade.” In other words, this is not an accredited educational consulting service. Please plan accordingly.Then Florida arrives.And Florida does not arrive quietly.It's time for Fake News of Florida, where callers have to decide whether increasingly ridiculous headlines actually happened in the Sunshine State or were created specifically to destroy their remaining faith in humanity.Could a Chuck E. Cheese mascot really get arrested inside the arcade? Could a guy in a Batman onesie detain a burglary suspect? Could a 300-pound feral hog crash through somebody's glass door? What about a runaway kangaroo? A guy hiding a gun under silicone breasts? A pet store burglar putting a live ferret down his pants?These are the questions our ancestors dreamed we would someday have the technology to answer.Moon serves as a lifeline, which occasionally works beautifully and occasionally involves him building an entire forensic case around a headline only to discover that Florida simply does not respect conventional logic. The more reasonable his explanation sounds, the more concerned everyone should probably become.Things eventually escalate to mystery shower curtains, a Key West parrot allegedly trapped in a margarita machine and perhaps the most Florida sentence ever assembled: a Pensacola man trying to trade a live rattlesnake for a box of chicken tenders. At some point you stop asking whether the headlines are plausible and start accepting that the state of Florida is basically running its own comedy podcast without microphones.It's baseball nostalgia, college-parent anxiety, caller chaos, weird news and enough Florida nonsense to make you suspicious of every headline you read for the rest of the day. Just another comedy podcast from The Rizzuto Show, where we take the important stories of the day and immediately make them significantly less important.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
