SEASON 4 EPISODE 49: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: BREAK the cover-up of the ICE murder of Renee Good: 1) INVESTIGATE regardless -on the state and county levels. 2) INDICT and ARREST the ICE shooter, Jonathan Ross (and the Trump militia members who were with him as accessories). 3) IMPEACH Homeland Security Chief Kristi Noem, Ice Director Todd Lyons (and Border Czar Tom Homan. Representative Angie Craig says now the Noem impeachment will proceed). 4) Iif Noem or any other ICE or DHS official continues to stonewall local investigators seeking justice for the murdered women, indict and arrest them for OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE. 5) When the Senate takes up the resolution to fund the government past January 30, all Democrats must refuse to vote yes unless ICE is neutered (and Trump's magic war wand as well). This is a pivotal moment in American history. ICE's reaction to its crimes has been to double down. It is now hiding behind this empty, corrupt demand that we all need to improve the “tone” and when they say “we” they mean “you” and when they say “tone” they mean “any criticism at all.” Tom Homan went on Fox and actually added to this bankrupt bromide, NEW threats. "There will be more bloodshed unless we decrease the hateful rhetoric.” Translation: if you keep criticizing us, we will keep shooting you. The acting ICE chief, Lyons, may be even worse. He is daring Minnesota to enforce its laws. “My message to the sheriff is: try and arrest my folks, let’s see what happens.” What should happen is the sheriff serving warrants to Ross, Noem, Lyons and the rest of their ICE street gang - with the Minnesota National Guard standing behind the sheriff. ALSO: Why are these fascists so obsessed with killing Americans? It may be the guns. Not the access to them: the physical impact on a shooter's brain by firing a weapon, as established by new tests. Plus updates on Trump doubling down on his Epstein Cover-up, Jim Jordan's moronic decision to let Jack Smith testify in public, and some Trump madness we should encourage. He wants to repel from a helicopter like Navy Seals. Yes please! Do it! B-Block (32:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: How Will Chamberlain, Laura Loomer, Matt Walsh and the philosopher of MAGA, Catturd, 180'd on action in places like Venezuela once they realized Trump had 540'd. The headline says 'Visas for Only Fans Models' but the article does not. And the only person who thinks Stephen A. Smith is a Democrat or a viable presidential candidate is Stephen A. Smith. Up to now it's been funny and a little sad. But now that he has defended the murder of Renee Good and sucked up to Trump and MAGA, it has to be said: to save the brand that they and a lot of people worked their lives to build, Disney chief Bob Iger and ESPN president Jimmy Pitaro have to fire Smith. Oh and - accordingly - I've re-named Stephen. C-Block (45:00) MONDAYS WITH THURBER: Only fitting. Next month it will have been a startling 95 years since James Thurber prophesied the advent of Trump. What would happen when America finally lionized its Worst? "The Greatest Man In The World."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
We are pretty psyched about our New Year's resolution, and we highly recommend not giving a f*ck to everyone. We learn why Denmark has suspended mail delivery, and we consider whether this is news of progress or a dystopian future. Sarah is extolling the virtues of an "analog bag," and we discuss what we would keep in our bags. Sarah got tricked by AI and we're mad about it. We learn about a man who was fined in England for littering, except the "litter" was a leaf that blew into his mouth and he spit out. WHAT. We learn about a senior living facility that is bringing in cosmetology students (aka a glam squad) to give the residents makeovers.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

Welcome back to the digital wasteland, fellow survivors. We kick things off in the FOLLOW UP by marking a year since the LA Fires—hello, PTSD—alongside a 4th Strokiversary and three years of sobriety, all while wondering why America is currently obsessed with shooting its own civilians in the face.In the IN THE NEWS segment, Wired is finally teaching us how to protest safely in the age of surveillance, and the EFF is cheering on the hackers fighting ICE's Nazi-adjacent tracking tactics. Meanwhile, Meta is harvesting your AI chats for targeted ads, Disney is paying $10 million for spying on kids, and Grok has spent the holidays generating nonconsensual child abuse material—a problem Elon Musk won't have to legally reckon with until the Take It Down Act hits in May. Instagram's Adam Mosseri has basically surrendered to the AI "slop", suggesting we fingerprint "real" media because the fake stuff has already won the war.As we continue the descent, OpenAI is launching a ChatGPT Health portal despite their "loser energy" and compute limits, while Character.AI and Google are quietly settling lawsuits for bots that encouraged teen suicide. Polymarket gamblers are learning that "decentralized" juries will fist you over the definition of an "invasion" just as fast as a bank. Uber showed off a new Lucid-based robotaxi, but we're pumping the brakes on the safety hype given that autonomous vehicles are five times more likely to crash at dusk. To wrap up the news, Tim Cook took home $74 million last year, which is a lot of "systematic philanthropy" he could be doing right now instead of just writing checks to his own ego.In MEDIA CANDY, we're suffering through the Stranger Things wrap-up and a John McTiernan holiday marathon, though the real highlight is MTV Rewind's tribute to music videos. We've got Traitors, The Pitt, and even a John Candy doc on the list, while APPS & DOODADS brings us the DJI Osmo 8, Victrola's turntable-vibrating speakers. At least California's DROP tool lets you purge your data from 500 brokers at once.Finally, we go to THE DARK SIDE WITH DAVE to hear Dave Bittner rant about holiday tech support, health insurance gouging, and Dave Filoni taking the Star Wars reins. We close out with a look at ILM's 50th, the deepfake porn cesspool formerly known as Twitter, and a birthday toast to the Starman himself, David Bowie.Sponsors:CleanMyMac - Get Tidy Today!

What's it really like to visit Walt Disney World during the holidays? Doug shares a full trip report—from flying Breeze out of Lincoln Airport to ringing in the New Year (Early) in the parks. Episode Description The holidays are one of the busiest—and most magical—times at Walt Disney World, and Doug just lived it. In this episode of Rope Drop Radio, Doug breaks down his holiday Disney World trip report, including flights, resorts, dining, rope drops, crowds, and seeing some attractions for the final time. From flying Breeze Airways out of Lincoln Airport to staying at Disney's BoardWalk Inn, Doug walks through what worked, what surprised him, and what listeners should know if they're planning a holiday or New Year's Disney trip. If you've ever wondered whether a Christmas or New Year's Disney trip is worth it, this episode gives you the honest, boots-on-the-ground perspective. Episode Highlights ✈️ Flying Breeze out of Lincoln Airport
We're putting Disney's Old Key West Resort head-to-head with Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa to see which laid-back villa resort comes out on top.Both resorts offer spacious accommodations, boat access to Disney Springs, and a slower, more relaxed pace than your typical theme park hotel—but they go about it in very different ways. Old Key West brings Florida Keys charm, oversized villas, and that “this feels like home” energy that longtime DVC fans love. Saratoga Springs counters with elegant Victorian theming, newer-feeling rooms, Treehouse Villas, and one of the best locations for easy Disney Springs access.We break things down round by round, comparing theming and atmosphere, room size and comfort, dining options, transportation and walkability, recreation and amenities, and overall value for your vacation dollars or DVC points. As always, we leave the final decision open during the episode so you can play along at home and decide which resort deserves the crown. Is bigger always better? Does location beat nostalgia? And which one truly delivers the best Disney resort experience?Grab your scorecard, settle in, and let the Resort Wars begin.

NASA makes history after announcing it will return four astronauts home early in the first-ever medical evacuation from the International Space Station, raising questions about safety, preparedness, and what went wrong in orbit. Back on Earth, tragedy strikes much closer to home with a deadly shooting in Sylmar stemming from a family dispute, ending in a murder-suicide that shocks the community. Sports and headlines collide as rumors swirl around Travis Kelce’s possible retirement, and we pivot to a lighter but timely moment wishing Dean Sharp — The House Whisperer — a happy birthday before diving into one of Southern California’s biggest ongoing issues: rebuilding after devastating fires. Dean breaks down the growing controversy over permits, why hundreds of millions of dollars aren’t going where people think they are, and just how expensive — and complicated — rebuilding has become. The conversation continues with serious concerns about whether the flood of rebuilding plans could lead to mistakes in places like Altadena and the Palisades, plus clarity on ADUs, temporary tax relief, and how housing policy is trying to keep up with demand. And just when you think the day can’t get stranger, emergency crews are forced to evacuate people off the Disneyland Monorail after it’s stuck in place for more than two and a half hours — proving even the “Happiest Place on Earth” isn’t immune to chaos. Space, tragedy, housing headaches, and Disney drama — all in one unforgettable hour.
Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesAs has become par for the course these last few weeks, Marvel Studios released the third Avengers: Doomsday trailer, which focuses on the X-Men, Tuesday morning after an exclusive week run attached to theatrical showings of Avatar Fire and Ash. Sebastian Stan is in talks to join The Batman Part II opposite Robert Pattinson and Scarlett Johansson, making him the second Marvel Cinematic Universe alum to jump to Matt Reeves' Gotham. The Oscar-nominated Apprentice star, best known for playing Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier in multiple Marvel films, would join returning cast members Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis ahead of spring production for an October 2027 release.Avatar: Fire and Ash crossed the 1 billion dollar mark at the global box office after 18 days in theaters, led by 40 million dollars domestically in its third weekend for a total of 306 million dollars and 777.1 million dollars internationally, making it Disney's third billion-dollar release of 2025. Meanwhile, Netflix's Stranger Things series finale generated between 25 to 28 million dollars from a limited two-day theatrical run across 600 theaters on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, with exhibitors selling concession vouchers rather than traditional tickets and keeping all revenue themselves as an olive branch between the streamer and theaters. Simu Liu has publicly endorsed his Copenhagen Test co-star Melissa Barrera to play Wonder Woman in James Gunn's DC Universe, praising her stunt training as Wonder Woman-esque and calling her a total badass who puts in the work. DC Studios boss James Gunn confirmed in July that Wonder Woman has not been cast yet and won't be discussed until the script is finished, with Supergirl screenwriter Ana Nogueira tapped to write the new Wonder Woman film.Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another dominated the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday night, winning Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay, while Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor for Marty Supreme and Jessie Buckley took Best Actress for Hamnet. Ryan Coogler's Sinners and Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein tied for the most wins with four awards each, with Jacob Elordi scoring a surprise Best Supporting Actor victory for his performance as the Creature in Frankenstein. On the television side, The Pitt won Best Drama while The Studio took Best Comedy, with Adolescence earning four awards including Best Limited Series.Horror director James Wan has expressed interest in directing Avatar 4 if James Cameron decides to step back from the franchise, telling Screen Rant he would love to take a crack at the billion-dollar series. Cameron has indicated he may scale back his hands-on involvement with future Avatar films to pursue other projects, potentially delegating more directorial duties to second unit directors or another filmmaker while remaining as producer.Paramount+ has renewed Mayor of Kingstown for a fifth and final season consisting of eight episodes, down from the usual ten episodes per season. The Taylor Sheridan crime drama starring Jeremy Renner and Edie Falco will conclude after its upcoming season, which follows the bloody Season 4 finale that aired in December 2025.Amazon Prime Video has announced the cast for its Tomb Raider series starring Sophie Turner as Lara Croft, with Sigourney Weaver joining as Evelyn Wallis, a mysterious woman seeking to exploit Lara's talents, and Jason Isaacs as Atlas DeMornay, Lara's uncle. The series, created and co-showrun by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, will also feature several characters from the video game franchise including Bill Paterson as butler Winston and Martin Bobb-Semple as tech support Zip.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show once again: Satanic ritual abuse, MK ULTRA and child trafficking survivor turned whistleblower, loving mother, writer and author of the book “Unplugged”, artist, jewelry and crafter maker, clothing designer, gardener, content creator, and my dear friend, Brooke Federline In case you're new here or if you need a refresher on Brooke's testimony - here is a short recap and a bit about what we will be talking about today: In the misty landscapes of New Zealand's North Island, where rolling hills meet endless skies, Brooke entered the world amid secrets that would define her extraordinary path. Born to parents entangled in a hidden web of cult influences, her early life was a mosaic of fragmented memories, veiled by amnesia – a protective shield forged in the fires of unimaginable trauma. From the outside, her childhood seemed ordinary: school days filled with fleeting friendships, high school marked by hidden struggles, and a quiet resilience that masked the storms within. Yet, beneath it all simmered a darkness – depression, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms that whispered of horrors she couldn't yet name.As a young woman in her 20s, Brooke sought escape, relocating to New Zealand's South Island amid escalating chaos she could scarcely recall. Relationships came and went, often imposed by unseen forces, including a coerced union laced with emotional and psychological abuse. She resisted marriage and motherhood, instinctively sensing the world's cruelties – a premonition rooted in buried truths about the world orchestrated by shadowy powers. But life persisted: after turning 30, she welcomed children into her life, a decision that would later bring forth her protective instincts against the very cycles she had endured.It was at university, pursuing psychology and criminal justice with dreams of forensics, that Brooke's world shattered – or rather, awakened. A lecture on the Power and Control Wheel, exposing the wrongs of psychological, emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, ignited a seismic shift. "That's been my whole life," she realized, as her mind recoiled from the "normal" she had known. What followed was a breakthrough disguised as a breakdown: vivid "dreams" revealed as real events, dissociation surged like a tidal wave, and fragments of her psyche emerged – alters born from trauma, including echoes of Disney archetypes like Beauty and the Beast, unwitting imprints from mind control programming.Diagnosed with Dissociative Identity Disorder, Brooke unraveled layers of her past - each memory holding pieces of a puzzle: child sex trafficking, Satanic ritual abuse, and MK ULTRA experiments...On today's episode, Brooke will be diving into healing and recovery with a discussion about breaking mind control, spiritual deliverance, the battle survivors face when getting free, and so much more. If you are new to meeting Brooke, I will have her playlist in the show notes for you to catchup on her previous episodes.BROOKE'S PLAYLIST ON 'THE IMAGINATION': https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLoojlrL9wVRO2l0-s7Do42gYFNQF9t3diCONNECT WITH BROOKE:YouTube: @brookefederline3109 Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/nz/shop/LettherebeLight3Telegram: https://t.me/BrookeFederlineIG: https://www.instagram.com/brookefederline/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brookie4233CONNECT WITH EMMA: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Support the show

A jaw-dropping Star Wars rumor is making waves across the fandom. Reports claim that Star Wars: Starfighter will feature a lightsaber duel partially shot and directed by Tom Cruise, and on today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down how this could actually happen, why Cruise may be involved behind the camera, and whether this bold creative choice makes sense for Lucasfilm's future. We also cover a packed slate of movie and streaming news. Disney has officially found the two leads for its live-action Tangled, sparking debate over casting choices and remake fatigue. DC fans get a major update as rumors swirl around Sebastian Stan's potential role in The Batman – Part II, and what it could mean for Matt Reeves' expanding Gotham universe. On the streaming side, Disney+ is reportedly rolling out a vertical video feed, raising questions about how platforms are adapting to short-form viewing habits. Meanwhile, Netflix users experienced minor outages that may be connected to the ongoing "Conformity Gate" situation. We also react to the explosive new trailer for The Wrecking Crew starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista. Topics Discussed: Star Wars: Starfighter lightsaber duel reportedly shot by Tom Cruise Live-action Tangled officially casts its two leads Sebastian Stan rumored for a role in The Batman – Part II Disney+ experimenting with vertical video feeds Netflix outages possibly linked to Conformity Gate The Wrecking Crew trailer with Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista Join Kristian Harloff and the crew for reactions, analysis, and unfiltered discussion on the biggest stories in movies, TV, and pop culture. #KristianHarloffShow #StarWars #StarWarsStarfighter #TomCruise #LightsaberDuel #Lucasfilm #Disney #Tangled #BatmanPartII #SebastianStan #DC #DisneyPlus #Netflix #TheWreckingCrew #JasonMomoa #DaveBautista #MovieNews #TVNews #PopCulture SPONSORS: RAYCON: Go to https://www.buyraycon.com/kristian to get 20% off sitewide.

As the calendar flips to a brand-new year, Jim Hill and Lauren Hersey kick things off by looking ahead to what's shaping up to be a massive 2026 for Disney merch fans. From milestone anniversaries Disney rarely shouts about to a packed slate of films and park changes, this episode breaks down why collectors should start paying attention now. And later in the show, Jim dives deep into a Disney history lesson about a beautifully ambitious animated film that failed spectacularly - and how that misfire accidentally paved the way for one of Disney's most merch-friendly franchises ever. NEWS • Why 2026 is stacked with Disney anniversaries, including Disneyland's 70th, DCA's 25th, and multiple film milestones • Major franchise birthdays like High School Musical (20), Cars (20), Zootopia (10), Moana (10), and 101 Dalmatians (65) • How Pixar's 40th anniversary and its long partnership with Disney could influence upcoming releases • A look at 2026 movies driving merch, including Toy Story 5, The Mandalorian and Grogu, and live-action Moana • Big park changes ahead, from Galaxy's Edge updates to Disneyland Paris becoming Disney Adventure World FEATURE • Why Sleeping Beauty was one of Disney's most expensive animated gambles - and why it failed at the box office • How that failure led Disney to completely rethink animation budgets and storytelling • The surprising connection between Sleeping Beauty's loss and the creation of One Hundred and One Dalmatians • How that pivot ultimately set the stage for decades of Cruella-driven merch success HOSTS • Jim Hill - IG: @JimHillMedia | X: @JimHillMedia | Website: JimHillMedia.com • Lauren Hersey - X: @laurenhersey2 | IG: @lauren_hersey_ FOLLOW • Facebook: JimHillMediaNews • Instagram: JimHillMedia • TikTok: JimHillMedia SUPPORT Support the show and access bonus episodes and additional content at Patreon.com/JimHillMedia.

Disneyland Handcrafted documentary debuts January 22, 2026 on Disney Plus and Disney YouTube, and I had the extraordinary opportunity to interview filmmaker Leslie Iwerks at the Walt Disney Studios Lot in Burbank, California about her new film. "Disneyland Handcrafted reveals the extraordinary artistry and grit it took hundreds of craftspeople to bring Walt Disney's impossible dream project of Disneyland to fruition – from groundbreaking to Opening Day on July 17, 1955." (Disney Plus). "An Oscar and Emmy nominated filmmaker, Leslie Iwerks comes from a family steeped in Disney legacy. The granddaughter of Ub Iwerks (Walt Disney's original animator and designer/co-creator of Mickey Mouse) and the daughter of Don Iwerks (a Disney camera technician and inventor), Leslie is the producer and director of the new documentary film."
