On this week's episode, I'm very pleased to be joined by Ric Roman Waugh, the director of the new film Shelter, starring Jason Statham. We talked a lot about making that movie and how he best utilized Statham's skills as opposed to Dwayne Johnson's in the movie Snitch or Gerard Butler's in the Greenland films, Kandahar, and Angel Has Fallen. Shelter, which is in theaters now, is a little more meditative than some of Statham's recent work, though no less effective for it. We discussed why Statham was attracted to the part and how his fatherhood helped inform his role as the protector of an orphaned young girl.Then we discussed making the transition from stuntman to director: Waugh worked with Tony Scott on a number of pictures, and had some interesting insights into the methods of the great action director. And I'd be lying if I said I didn't have to practically restrain myself from just doing 30 minutes on Waugh's Shot Caller, a gritty prison drama.oo
As we begin this new year, McKay explores how lasting transformation is achieved by shifting our focus from setting unmotivating goals to redefining our fundamental identity. He discusses the necessity of breaking free from the "murky middle" by deciding who we will no longer be and who we aspire to become.Our host examines how procrastination is often a failure to manage moods rather than a lack of willpower, suggesting that identity-based changes remove the internal argument for resistance. Using the life stories of figures like Dwayne Johnson and Viola Davis, McKay illustrates that true growth requires aligning our external actions with an authentic sense of self. He also highlights the importance of an "information diet" and the benefit of surrounding ourselves with people who elevate our character. Ultimately, the episode serves as a call to bold action during this year of the Fire Horse, reminding us that we have the power to change the trajectory of our lives.Main Themes:Redefining identity as the root of changeMoving past the "murky middle" of mediocrityManaging moods to overcome the procrastination trapAligning external behaviors with internal valuesJettisoning influences that do not elevate the selfPrioritizing long-term character over momentary trendsCommitting to the bold action of the year of the Fire HorseTop 10 Quotes:"Years don't change people, people change years.""Big change doesn't start with behavior. It starts with identity.""The behavior changes not because of motivation, but because the action now confirms identity.""Identity-based change works because it removes the internal argument.""I've been living a life that doesn't fit me anymore.""The way to overcome procrastination is not a matter of finding more self-will.""Read not the Times... read the Eternities.""Each small action becomes a vote for the person you're becoming.""True growth is sometimes less about doing the same thing over and over again.""Identity rarely happens by chance."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

For those who are unaware, Zathura is a book written by the same author as Jumanji years after the success of the first Jumanji movie. While not a direct sequel, Zathura could be considered a spiritual successor to the first Jumanji.

Happy New Year from The Strange Harbors Podcast! For the first episode of 2026, we review Josh Safdie's Marty Supreme, a 1950s sports comedy-drama in the world of professional table tennis. We discuss Timothée Chalamet's barn burner performance, his Marty Mauser marketing persona, and what makes a Safdie movie a Safdie movie. Is Marty Supreme just Uncut Gems or Good Time with $50 million tacked onto its budget? Or is there much, much more under the hood?
Writer/Director/Actor/Editor Benny Safdie is known for defying expectations and using his sense of humor to make a splash. He even once showed up on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon dressed all in silver, including painted silver hair and skin. So when we sat down with Safdie over Zoom to talk about his latest movie The Smashing Machine, we weren't sure what to expect. For this interview, however, there was no face paint or sparkly clothes, he was simply wearing a shirt that said, "Radical Empathy." Turns out there's a very important reason for the shirt. "Empathy should be cool, you know?" says Safdie. "And for this movie, I want to put you in the mind of somebody who looks invincible and you're going to feel their pain. You're going to feel what it's like to be them. You're going to be connected to them when you go in the ring. If you could be empathetic on such a deep level, where their feelings and emotions become your own, that's radical. That's a radical form of empathy. And that's what I was trying to do with the movie." Given what Safdie says, it's no secret that all great writing starts with radical empathy. On this episode of the podcast, we chat with him about his film The Smashing Machine starring Dwayne Johnson as UFC star Mark Kerr and Emily Blunt as his romantic partner Dawn. Safdie talks about his personal connection to boxing and MMA, why a narrative film can tell a much deeper story than a documentary, and the highly charged fighting between Mark and Dawn that took place out of the ring, and why they ultimately couldn't make their relationship work. To learn more, listen to the podcast.

"The Smashing Machine" is a biographical sports drama film written, directed, produced, and edited by Benny Safdie, starring Golden Globe nominee Dwayne Johnson as former amateur wrestler and MMA fighter Mark Kerr, alongside Academy Award nominee Emily Blunt as Kerr's girlfriend Dawn Staples. The film had its world premiere in the main competition of the 82nd Venice International Film Festival, where it won the Silver Lion and received positive reviews for the performances, notably for Johnson's transformational work, brought to life by multi Academy Award-winning prosthetics designer Kazu Hiro. Johnson, Blunt, and Hiro were all kind enough to spend some time speaking with me, Cody Dericks, and Dan Bayer, respectively, about their work and experiences making the film, which you can listen to below.

The thing about machines is that we expect them to keep chugging on – to never break or falter. In the late 1990s, a mixed martial artist named Mark Kerr found himself struggling to shoulder the weight of that expectation. Mark was a winner – a muscular behemoth beloved by fans of a rising new fighting league, called Ultimate Fighting Championship, or UFC for short. His fans across the world knew little of his agonising behind-the-scenes struggle to keep up that facade, to keep entering the ring week after week, to keep The Smashing Machine as he was nicknamed chugging along – never breaking, never faltering. Addicted to powerful painkillers, the pressure to win was killing him.Which is why The Smashing Machine, the recent biopic about Kerr, from my guest today, writer-director Benny Safdie, is a sports movie unlike most others. Think of a sports movie you love. Break it down at its core and I bet you, it's a tale about someone learning to win, right? Starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, The Smashing Machine is about someone learning to lose. The liberation that comes with it. The power of realising that we're not our accomplishments. What defines us is our actions out of the wrestling ring – whatever your version of that ring may be. On today's episode, Benny tells me about the quote, “radical empathy” that guided this story – and how it was also perhaps present in his work up till now. Films and TV shows like the hugely acclaimed Good Time and Uncut Gems, both created with his brother Josh – and The Curse, created with Nathan Fielder. We get into all the key beats and scenes from The Smashing Machine in our usual spoiler-filled detail – including that mesmerising ending in which Dwayne Johnson seems to unburden himself of the expectation that he can never falter, not just within his performance of Mark Kerr, but also kind of as himself, this megawatt blockbuster star whose recent career took an interesting path to this story, filling it with metatextual meaning.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesThe potential sale of Warner Bros Discovery has been a hot topic in recent weeks, but no one could have predicted the escalation and heightened stakes the bidding war has reached as Paramount CEO David Ellison announced a hostile takeover bid to the tune of $108.4 billion in response to what he described as Netflix's inferior $82.7 billion deal; a deal that seemed like an all but assured thing just days ago. It's been an uncharacteristically long time since James Gunn has given us a headline, but we may still be a day late and dollar short, as on Sunday the DC Studios head released a 10 second first look at Supergirl via social media, with the promise of the teaser trailer later in the week; which many have speculated to mean Thursday… Thanks, James! Also concerning DC: Four years after leaving the Marvel Cinematic Universe behind, Scarlett Johansson seems headed for Gotham City, with the actress in final negotiations to join The Batman Part II. Details about Johansson's potential role are being closely guarded, though speculation has already run rampant about which iconic Batman character she might portray, though being a new love interest for Bruce Wayne in some capacity is a popular guess in the wake of unconfirmed reports that Zoe Kravitz might not reprise her role in the sequel.More than seven years after its original theatrical run, Marvel Studios is bringing Avengers: Endgame, the second-highest-grossing film of all time, back to theaters September 25, 2026 just months before Avengers: Doomsday later that December. While it's still unknown how long the Russos Brothers' last MCU contribution will be back to the big screen, the placement between the releases of Spider-Man: Brand New Day in July and Doomsday in December, has fueled industry insider speculation suggesting the new Avengers film will act as a direct sequel to Endgame rather than closely following the events of Phases 4 through 6.HBO has revealed that the third season of Euphoria will begin streaming in April of 2026. This comes more than four years after Season 2 finished in February 2022.Hulu has renewed the Glen Powell led sports comedy series Chad Powers for a second season.20th Century Studios announced The Simpsons Movie 2 has been delayed from July 23, 2027 to September 3, 2027. Paramount and Blumhouse are reviving the Paranormal Activity franchise and bringing on James Wan to produce a new feature film in the franchise according to the Hollywood Reporter. Variety and CNN have revealed the star-studded lineup for the 23rd season of Actors on Actors. Some of the participants include Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence, Dwayne Johnson, Julia Roberts, and Ariana Grande. Sony Pictures has tapped Bad Boys For Life writer Chris Bremner to pen a new Men In Black film. Although plot details are not public, sources tell Deadline that when the script is complete, original series star Will Smith will be the first to read it in hopes that he will return to the franchise in some capacity. Prime Video has released the first trailer for the final season of The Boys. The show has an updated release date of April 8, 2026, which will see the release of two episodes. Episodes will then drop weekly, leading to the series finale on May 20th. Five Nights at Freddy's 2 opened to $109 million dollars worldwide over the weekend, a strong opening for the franchise. Additionally, last weekend's champion Zootopia 2 is nearing the one billion dollar mark with $915 million dollars worldwide so far. Sigourney Weaver is in talks to join the upcoming Tomb Raider series for Prime Video. Sophie Turner is set to star as Lara Croft, with Phoebe Waller-Bridge on as writer and executive producer.

Episode 217Series: On the Mission Field - 24We have another great opportunity to sit down and talk with missionaries! In this episode, we are talking with Zach and Sarah Smith, missionaries to American Samoa. If you are anything like Jay, the only thing you might know about American Samoa are the famous people that originate or descend from there, like Tulsi Gabbard or Dwayne Johnson. There is so much more to the territory than its celebrities, of course, like the more than 50,000 souls that currently live there. Many of them would say they are Christian, but they do not have a personal relationship with Christ. These are the ones with whom Zach and Sarah would like to share the gospel. You will get to hear about God's call on both their individual lives and their life as a married couple, the work that has yet to be done in American Samoa, and what God is doing there right now. Could God be moving you to partner with them in the work?Listen to the Removing Barriers Podcast here:Spotify: https://cutt.ly/Ega8YeI Apple Podcast: https://cutt.ly/Vga2SVdEdifi: https://cutt.ly/Meec7nsvYouTube: https://cutt.ly/mga8A77Podnews: https://podnews.net/podcast/i4jxoSee all our platforms: https://removingbarriers.netContact us:Email us: https://removingbarriers.net/contactFinancially support the show: https://removingbarriers.net/donateAffiliates:Book Shop: https://bookshop.org/shop/removingbarriersChristian Books.com: https://www.christianbook.com/Christian/Books/home?event=AFF&p=1236574See all our affiliates: https://removingbarriers.net/affiliatesNotes:Website: https://smithstosamoa.com/

Listen in as trailblazing entrepreneur Merrick Rosenberg and Bernadette Fiaschetti discuss ‘Personality Intelligence: Master The Art of Being You (For Your Sake and Everyone Else's).“An understanding of all the personality styles - not just our own - reveals the path to becoming the highest expression of ourselves.”Merrick Rosenberg is a trailblazing entrepreneur, keynote speaker, and the foremost expert on how personality shapes behavior, relationships, and success. In 2012, he revolutionized the DISC personality model by reimagining the classic letters as four memorable birds—Eagle, Parrot, Dove, and Owl—making the styles instantly visual, relatable, and unforgettable.Merrick is the co-founder of Team Builders Plus (1991) and Take Flight Learning (2012), and has brought his innovative approach to more than two-thirds of the Fortune 100. He's the author of eight award-winning books on personality and leadership, including Taking Flight!, The Chameleon, and Which Bird Are You?, and is the creative force behind the acclaimed short film BirdBrains, Inc., winner of 23 film festival awards. His newest book, Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You (For Your Sake and Everyone Else's), was released in September 2025 and offers a bold new framework for personal and professional transformation.Merrick's journey began in management consulting, where he quickly realized that real change requires more than process—it demands people who understand and work well with each other. Driven by this insight, he earned an MBA in Organizational Development and founded one of the first team-building companies in the U.S. From there, he pioneered a new era of personality-based training that blends self-awareness with interactive learning. Through his energetic keynotes, engaging programs, and innovative tools, Merrick continues to help people unlock their potential by mastering the one thing they carry with them everywhere: their personality.In his newest book, Personality Intelligence: Master the Art of Being You (Sept 2025) offers a reimagination of the traditional DISC method of personality assessments into four intuitive birds (Eagle, Parrot, Dove, Owl). The personality test created by Merrick has been taken by more than 15 million people and is now used by two-thirds of the Fortune 100. Through real-world stories, celebrity profiles (such as Keanu Reeves, The Rock, and Taylor Swift), and strategies for work, leadership, relationships, and parenting, Personality Intelligence reveals how to level up through four stages of “Personality Intelligence” to become a more self-aware, adaptable, and successful version of yourself.“Keanu Reeves' Dove nature has made him renowned not just for his kindness, but also for his acts of selflessness and generosity that exemplify the Level 3 Dove,” says Rosenberg. “Swifties love the fact that no one can mess with Swift and get away with it. That's her Eagle side. Dwayne Johnson embodies all four styles. Understanding your personality is only the beginning. Real transformation comes from intentional action.” CONNECT:Personal website: https://www.MerrickRosenberg.comCompany website: https://www.TakeFlightLearning.comX: @MerrickRInstagram: Merrick_RosenbergFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MerrickRLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/merrickrosenberg
