Transcript:Sv: I en stilla hörn av Stockholm, där de gulnande löven knastrade under fötterna och höstvinden lekte mjukt mellan träden, låg en lugn bostadsområde.En: In a quiet corner of Stockholm, where the yellowing leaves crunched underfoot and the autumn wind played gently among the trees, lay a peaceful residential area.Sv: Skolans aula var fylld med förväntan och ljudet av skratt och röster som överröstade höstens tysta viskningar.En: The school's auditorium was filled with anticipation and the sound of laughter and voices overpowering the autumn's silent whispers.Sv: Eleverna i Teaterföreningen övade inför höstens stora skolpjäs.En: The students in the Drama Club were rehearsing for the big autumn school play.Sv: Johan satt längst bak i aulan, nervös och tyst.En: Johan sat at the very back of the auditorium, nervous and silent.Sv: Han tittade på scenen där Malin, den lysande stjärnan, repeterade sina repliker.En: He watched the stage where Malin, the brilliant star, was rehearsing her lines.Sv: Hon var modig och självsäker, men Johan visste att hon ibland kände samma oro som han.En: She was brave and confident, but Johan knew that she sometimes felt the same anxiety he did.Sv: Till vänster om Johan satt Anders, hans bäste vän, alltid redo att stötta men bärandes på egna bekymmer.En: To Johan's left sat Anders, his best friend, always ready to support but carrying his own worries.Sv: Johan älskade teater men hatade att stå inför en publik.En: Johan loved theater but hated being in front of an audience.Sv: Hans kamrater tvivlade på honom, och deras tvivel låg som en skugga över hans självkänsla.En: His peers doubted him, and their doubts cast a shadow over his self-esteem.Sv: Men Johan hade bestämt sig för att övervinna sin rädsla.En: But Johan had decided to overcome his fear.Sv: Han måste leverera en fantastisk prestation.En: He had to deliver a fantastic performance.Sv: För att göra det, behövde han hjälp.En: To do that, he needed help.Sv: Han tog ett djupt andetag och närmade sig Malin efter repetitionerna.En: He took a deep breath and approached Malin after rehearsals.Sv: "Malin," började Johan försiktigt.En: "Malin," Johan began cautiously.Sv: "Kan du hjälpa mig?En: "Can you help me?Sv: Jag känner mig osäker på scenen."En: I feel unsure on stage."Sv: Malin tittade på honom med ett leende.En: Malin looked at him with a smile.Sv: "Självklart, Johan.En: "Of course, Johan.Sv: Lita på mig, tillsammans kan vi fixa det."En: Trust me, together we can fix it."Sv: Under veckorna som följde, hjälpte Malin Johan med hans repliker och scennärvaro.En: In the weeks that followed, Malin helped Johan with his lines and stage presence.Sv: De tränade tillsammans efter skolan, under kvällarnas dunkel som omspände stadsdelen.En: They practiced together after school, under the evening's darkness that enveloped the neighborhood.Sv: Regnet föll ibland, men deras beslutsamhet var starkare än höstvädret.En: Sometimes the rain fell, but their determination was stronger than the autumn weather.Sv: Till slut kom kvällen för den sista repetitionen, och kaoset härskade i aulan.En: Finally, the evening for the final rehearsal arrived, and chaos reigned in the auditorium.Sv: En av skådespelarna kunde inte komma, och Johan var tvungen att hoppa in i rollen.En: One of the actors couldn't make it, and Johan had to step into the role.Sv: Scenen var belyst av varma ljus, och hans hjärta bankade hårt.En: The stage was lit by warm lights, and his heart pounded hard.Sv: "Du klarar det, Johan," viskade Anders från kulissen, och Malin gav honom ett uppmuntrande nick.En: "You can do it, Johan," Anders whispered from the wings, and Malin gave him an encouraging nod.Sv: Johan tog ett djupt andetag och gick fram till scenen.En: Johan took a deep breath and stepped onto the stage.Sv: När han började tala, kände han hur orden flöt naturligt.En: As he began to speak, he felt the words flow naturally.Sv: Applåderna rasade när han avslutade sin scen, och hans klasskamrater jublade.En: Applause erupted as he finished his scene, and his classmates cheered.Sv: Efteråt, när aulan sakta tömdes, satt Johan ensam på scenen.En: Afterwards, as the auditorium slowly emptied, Johan sat alone on the stage.Sv: För första gången på länge kände han sig lättare, som om en stor vikt lyfts från hans axlar.En: For the first time in a long while, he felt lighter, as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.Sv: Malin och Anders kom upp till honom, båda med breda leenden.En: Malin and Anders joined him, both with broad smiles.Sv: "Du var fantastisk, Johan," sa Malin och gav honom en kram.En: "You were amazing, Johan," said Malin, giving him a hug.Sv: Johan log tillbaka, full av nyfunnit självförtroende.En: Johan smiled back, filled with newfound confidence.Sv: Han insåg att han kunde mycket mer än han tidigare trott.En: He realized he could do much more than he had previously thought.Sv: Kanske skulle han aldrig mer låta rädslan hålla honom tillbaka.En: Maybe he would never again let fear hold him back.Sv: Och så, just där, under de svala ljusen av skolans aula och med lövens viskande symfoni utanför, började Johans nästa kapitel – ett mer modigt och öppet kapitel i livet.En: And so, right there, under the cool lights of the school's auditorium and with the leaves' whispering symphony outside, Johan's next chapter began—a more courageous and open chapter in life.

Episode 592 - Joe McClean - Screenwriter, Author and Director - Putting Yourself Out There and Into Your Story, That is Where the Opportunity LiesJoe made a bunch of short films and one feature length movie with friends and no money. To this day, I enjoy watching those early attempts to craft a story, but essentially this era of on-the-job-training was my film school. Now it was time to take my first big swing. I wrote a script I felt I could raise enough money to shoot myself, a found-footage film, and I spent a year begging for cash and favors. The star of a hit TV show, who had gone to the same high school as me, graciously agreed to act in it. An NBA player made a small investment. Actor, comedian, and Late Show with David Letterman regular, Jay Thomas agreed to make a cameo. The snowball was growing and eventually I scraped together enough cash to direct Life Tracker. The movie played over 20 science fiction conventions and got a digital distribution deal with Charter Communications (now Spectrum) and streamed into millions of American homes.Life Tracker Great! Now I needed a follow up to prove that my work ethic couldn't be mistaken for beginner's luck. Taking advantage of a group of talented actor friends and another who owned property outside of Fresno, I wrote and directed a super-low-budget homage to The Big Chill called The Drama Club which can currently be seen on Tubi.The Drama Club Looking back from that point, I could see the years of work I'd put in. Meeting people. Working with casts and crews. Going on adventures together. taking risks and building trust. Jobs started to fall into place. I signed my first manager. I joined the Writers Guild of America. I pitched big shot producers at legacy studios and powerhouse production companies. Always searching for that next opportunity. That's when I met Blair Underwood. A business lunch turned into an attachment (and a friendship), and soon I was hitting up everyone I'd ever done business with to see who wanted to join the team.Viral was written and produced by me, it's directed by and stars Blair, and he shares the screen with Sarah Silverman, Jeanine Mason, and the incomparable Alfre Woodard! The movie is finished and we're actively working with our sales team to bring it to audiences.In the mean time, I'm working with Amistad (an imprint of HarperCollins Publishing) on a two-book deal titled Sins of Survivors about the plight of a family who lived in the once vital African American neighborhood of Black Bottom in 1930s and 40s Detroit. The first book is currently available everywhere books are sold, and the second hits shelves in the summer of 2026...

However, they're excited to head back to NYC for spring, where they'll celebrate back-to-back birthdays, see their friends, and eat at their favorite restaurants.In The Drama Club, Kim and Grandma discuss how musical festivals have evolved since Woodstock. Where that was a social rebellion, Coachella is more of a branded event where concert-goers pay for their tickets in payment plans. Not Grandma-Approved. The hosts then break down the TIME article, “The Silver Lining of Dating in a Recession” in The Grandma Report. Could this be a good thing? Kim thinks so! With more budget-conscious daters, people will go on or create more creative dates, which will be more meaningful. Grandma's tip: Go for pizza and put some money away for a rainy day. Read it here!Catch up on Kim's current shows in The Rewind! She just finished "Love Is Blind” and is watching “Dying For Sex” and “Your Friends and Neighbors.”Grandma Gail's Hotline rings next. How should a caller feel about a man she's been on 11 dates with and isn't showing as much interest as she'd like? Grandma has thoughts. They also give their opinions on therapy. Leave a voicemail at Grandma Gail's Voicemail, DM us on Instagram, or email team@excusemygrandma.com for advice!In a game of Should We Bring It Back: Things To Do in Florida Edition, Kim and Gail vote on what deserves a comeback.

The "Resistance" or the Drama Club?

Free Thinking Through the Fourth Turning with Sasha Stone

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 7, 2025 31:33

The worst thing that's ever happened to the Democrats is democracy.It must be quite an existential crisis that, after all that, the rest of the country rejected their opinion of Donald Trump. That the guy they said was a rapist, a racist, a fascist, a dictator, a Nazi, a bigot, a transphobe, a misogynist, a Russian asset, a criminal, a felon, a fraudster, a fake, a traitor, an election denier and insurrectionist, an extremist, a terrorist, a white supremacist, a phony that they impeached twice and indicted four times, and became the first presidential candidate with a mug shot, and to be convicted of a felony still won the popular vote.That has got to really burn.But it isn't the Trump side that is now in a perpetual state of shock because it existed inside a utopian bubble, cutting itself off from the rest of America. It isn't the Trump side that cosplayed World War II for so long that it lost touch with reality about either our world now or what really happened in World War II. It isn't the Trump side that was the empire.Their war-torn resistance fighters were so disgusted that none of the Democrats had done enough to “stop Hitler Trump and his Nazi leader, Elon Musk,” that their approval numbers were at historic lows. DO SOMETHING, their supporters cried.So Cory Booker took to the Senate floor to remind them of what they still stand for. And to rally the troops. He prepared in advance for the performance of his life. He denied himself food and water to go the distance. It was, for him, a chance to audition for the part of Charismatic Leader, the democrats so desperately need.Booker found a way: It's not Left or Right but right or WRONG.It's a far cry from Obama's “not red states or blue states, but the United States.” The Democrats no longer believe that. They went from “don't normalize Trump and his supporters” to it's more than justified to demonize, dehumanize, even terrorize them. They are “bad people.” They're no longer welcome. Not in our culture, restaurants, movie theaters, family gatherings, and, most of all, our democracy.Their anger stems from their class privilege of having everything they need, yet they can't accept losing something they want.Here is Batya Ungar-Sargon:Either the Democrats really are caught up in a mass delusion about who Trump is and why he won, or else they're the drama club, and none of it was ever real.Splendor in the GrassI wasn't just in the Drama Club in high school. I was the undisputed queen. Just ask anyone who went to high school with me. I was a terrible student. I barely graduated. My nickname was “no-show Stone,” but the one thing I showed up for was the Drama Club.That's me as Elizabeth Proctor in the high school production of The Crucible.In case you've never seen or read The Crucible, Elizabeth Proctor was John Proctor's pregnant wife who was accused of witchcraft but who was spared because of the presumed innocence of her baby. Her husband, John Proctor, would be hanged.I could never have known that all of these decades later, we'd all be living in a Salem of our own making, and I'd be once again an accused and condemned witch.Inside the drama club, I had a magic mirror - a small group of people who thought I hung the moon. My Drama teacher thought that too. I was his favorite, at least for a time. I didn't know the word “grooming” back then, but looking back on it, I see that's probably what he was doing—a pinch here, a grope there. On the last day of my junior year, he French kissed me just before I went away for summer break.That Summer, he drove up to my house and dropped off a copy of the play Splendor in the Grass. I took that to mean I would be cast as the lead, the part Natalie Wood played in the movie. As the queen of the Drama Club, I got all of the leading roles. Of course, I would play Deannie.But when it came time to cast the play, the part went to someone who wasn't even in the drama club. She was the prettiest girl in school: the Head Cheerleader and the Homecoming Queen. Our teacher had broken the silent code of the drama club - nobody from the outside is allowed in. Because if they do, our fantasy world is shattered.That's all we had. We weren't the popular kids, the cheerleaders, the jocks, the science nerds. We were people who didn't belong anywhere else. But we also liked escaping into a fantasy world of being another person other than ourselves.During the Me Too movement, my friends would always bring up our drama teacher, but honestly, I was more angry that he'd given my part away to a prettier girl.In reality, the Homecoming Queen was the right person to play Deannie, even if our teacher probably just had the hots for her. She was good, too—better than I would have been. Because she was popular, everyone in the school came to see the play.We were all big fish in a small pond, which gave us power we weren't willing to relinquish. But having the whole school see our play meant reality was here, whether we liked it or not.I often think about the drama club now when I watch Christopher Guest's hilarious Waiting for Guffman, which is about a self-important director of a small town theater group and their delusions of grandeur.And that's also what I see when I look at the democrats and all of the performative protesters and activists on the Left, from Eric Swalwell to AOC to Jasmine Crocket to Chuck Schumer to Cory Booker, to all of these delusional people who believe Musk did the Nazi salute and Trump is Hitler.They are Waiting for Guffman. They are the drama club.It's a cosplay fantasy, a dystopian Renaissance Faire. None of it is real. The American people have been watching this performative outrage for almost a decade. They wanted to turn the channel so badly they voted for Donald Trump a second time, and now, here they all are, once again, caterwauling about the very democracy that just took them out of power.They still believe that doing exactly the same thing for this long will get them a different result, the very definition of insanity.But there's a darkness too, a rising violence. What they all mean when they say “Hands off” is not just “hands off” our government, but “hands off” everything else too.Along with keying Teslas and violent outbursts against Trump supporters, there is a hashtag making the rounds on TikTok called “when it happens,” where users fantasize about Trump's death.Identity First vs. America First.During the last Civil War, the two conflicting realities were that a country founded on freedom could not own human beings vs. the false reality that slaves could not survive as free human beings and that there would be chaos and collapse if things changed.Now, we find ourselves once again at a crossroads with two factions believing in two completely separate realities. This time, it's not about westward expansion but rather our migration onto the new frontier of the internet, AI, and the upcoming robot revolution. What will this country be going forward? What will be our values? What will define male and female? What will decide power?You can see each of our potential futures laid out before us. Whole generations have come of age in virtual reality, where they can choose their own avatars and have their own audiences for their own show. It's all performative. But to be included, you must follow the rules. If you don't, out you go. This is a public episode.

Rising young actor Pilot Bunch, a local Atlanta talent, will be seen on the big screen in Lionsgate's highly anticipated film The Unbreakable Boy out now. Bunch portrays Tyler, a classmate who plays a pivotal role in Austin's journey, in this heartwarming drama that tells the inspiring true story of Austin LeRette, a boy born with both a rare brittle-bone disease and autism. This project holds deep personal significance for Bunch, as his own brother is on the autism spectrum. “This film is deeply personal to me,” says Bunch. “Growing up with a brother on the autism spectrum, I've seen firsthand how extraordinary and resilient individuals with autism are. I'm honored to be part of a story that celebrates love, acceptance, and perseverance.” Directed by Jon Gunn (The Case for Christ), the film stars Zachary Levi (Shazam!), Meghann Fahy (The White Lotus), Patricia Heaton (Everybody Loves Raymond), and Jacob Laval, who plays Austin. Based on the book The Unbreakable Boy: A Father's Fear, a Son's Courage, and a Story of Unconditional Love by Scott LeRette, the film is a touching testament to the power of perspective and unconditional love. Born in Kazakhstan and raised in Atlanta, Bunch discovered his passion for performing at a young age. He began acting in children's theater at 9 and quickly transitioned into professional productions. He made his television debut on HBO's The Outsider and has since appeared in Nickelodeon's Drama Club, ABC's The Wonder Years, The Walking Dead, and the award-winning film The Hill. His upcoming projects include roles in HBO's Task, The Righteous Gemstones and the feature films Flowervale Street and Red One.
