Matthew Shear IG: @matthew_shear takes us on the journey to cast Amanda Peet, Alessandro Nivola, and Judd Hirsch in his directorial debut. In the midst of a long and successful career as an actor, should you ever write your own film? Does it even make sense to follow your agent's advice about making more content?Matthew just wrapped as series reg, and Matt and Oren are curious about how and why he figured that making a film and getting into SXSW, was a good thing? Afterall this is a film that Oren's DP said they loved!So Matthew dives deep into what it means to be vulnerable. The blood, pain, and the angst, as only an actor can understand. And he takes us through how, after deciding to act and direct in the film he spent years toiling to write, he decided it might be best "for the film" if he were to give up his role as lead actor!!!Well... that's what happened, and not how it ended. And if you want to know how you can turn fortune yourself, and hear about how good guys win and money doesn't always, then this is the episode you have to hear!Help Matts' film: https://wefunder.com/badfeelingHelp our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: the D line of the LA Metro opened 2 new stops:Oren's Endorsement: Have a jumping off point for creative inspiration.

It's no secret that the success or failure of a movie depends largely on how well we can relate to its central characters. On this week's show, Dan Webster, Nathan Weinbender and Mary Pat Treuthart discuss a pair of films boasting protagonists with wildly diverse appeals. The films are the theatrical release “Fantasy Life” and the streaming feature “Outcome.”

Amanda Peet is in the new film ‘Fantasy Life' and the series ‘Your Friends & Neighbors.' In a recent piece in ‘The New Yorker,' she wrote about being diagnosed with breast cancer while both of her parents were in hospice. “I didn't really have that ‘why me?' thing. Maybe because I am Jewish and am always waiting for that other shoe to drop. In this case it was three shoes,” she told Terry Gross. Also, we'll talk about Toni Morrison with Harvard professor Namwali Serpell. She says no matter how many times she returns to Morrison's work, she finds something new.  She's still haunted by the last sentence of the novel ‘Sula.' “When that sentence comes into my life, whether I'm reading it to teach, whether I'm rereading it to write, whether I'm reading it out loud, even just now, tears always spring to my eyes," Serpell says. She spoke with Tonya Mosley.   David Bianculli reviews the new Apple TV series ‘Margo's Got Money Troubles.'See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Dwain McFarland and Matthew Freedman go head to head comparing two completely different approaches to evaluating the 2026 NFL Draft class. Freedman brings his scouting-based Big Board rankings. Dwain brings the data-driven Rookie Super Model. They don't always agree — and that's where it gets interesting. Jordyn Tyson is WR1 on the Big Board but WR3 in the Super Model. Carnell Tate is WR2 on the Big Board but WR1 in the Model. Denzel Boston grades out as a borderline first-round pick on the Big Board but the Model's closest comps are Cedric Tillman, Javon Baker, and Jakobi Meyers. Nicholas Singleton is RB6 on the Big Board but RB3 in the Model. We go prospect by prospect through every wide receiver, running back, and tight end to find where scouting and data agree — and where they clash.

Episode 354: “Frequency” (2000): Movie Review Chris and Derek go back to 2000 to watch and review the movie, “Frequency” starring Dennis Quaid and Jim Caviezel. The guys discuss scenes, themes, cast, box office, behind-the-scenes trivia and more. For the “Fun with Caveman” segment of the show, Chris opens a box of trivia he received as a gift and has Derek try to guess movie titles based on one-sentence synopses.

The big question for this draft class: which prospects are actually good and which ones are just athletic? We go position by position through the quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends to separate the real fantasy football assets from the combine heroes.Is Mike Washington actually a good running back or just a freak athlete? Could Jadarian Price be a league winner if he lands in Seattle? Is Chris Bell the WR7 everyone should be locking in? And is the world sleeping on Ja'Kobi Lane? Plus, we debate the best project QBs, the small school WR darts worth taking, and the tight end class that's deeper than people think.

Amanda Peet is always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Except last year there seemed to be three different shoes, as she faced her parents' deaths and a breast cancer diagnosis. Peet spoke with Terry Gross about her “Season of Ativan,” navigating middle age in Hollywood, and her memories of Diane Keaton from the set of ‘Something's Gotta Give.' Peet stars in the new film ‘Fantasy Life' and in the Apple TV series ‘Your Friends & Neighbors,' now in its second season. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

The prodigal son returns when Ian Hartitz and Skor North's Thor Nystrom (@thorku) go pick by pick through a complete 2026 first round NFL mock draft with full fantasy football analysis on every selection. Carnell Tate lands with the Browns at Pick 6. Jeremiyah Love goes to Washington at Pick 7. Kenyon Sadiq falls to the Chargers at Pick 29. Five wide receivers hear their names called in Round 1 in a historically deep class. We break down every pick, every landing spot, and what it all means for your redraft, best ball, and dynasty fantasy football leagues.

Amanda Peet plays a character maybe a little bit too close to home in her new film Fantasy Life. The film brings up questions about aging, art and relevancy — all things on Amanda's mind — alongside the complicated debate around cosmetic surgery. Amanda tells Tom Power about how the search for validation can lead you down some dark paths.

Thank you for listening to the Following Films Podcast. If you are anything like me, you are always searching for those rare stories that feel both intellectually sharp and deeply human, films that capture the messy, rhythmic chaos of life and relationships. Today, we are diving into a project that fits that description perfectly: the new romantic dramedy, Fantasy Life. Fresh off a triumphant run at the SXSW Film Festival—where it took home the Audience Award and a Special Jury Award for its star, Amanda Peet—Fantasy Life is a smart, New York-centric story written and directed by its lead, Matthew Shear.The film follows Sam Stein, played by Shear, a former paralegal who, after a panic attack, finds himself babysitting for his own psychiatrist. What follows is a summer on Martha's Vineyard involving a stalled actor played by Peet, her rock-bassist husband played by Alessandro Nivola, a house full of grandparents, and the delicate, shared history of mental illness. It features an incredible ensemble cast including legends like Judd Hirsch, Bob Balaban, and Holland Taylor. Joining me today is the multi-hyphenate behind the film, Matthew Shear, to talk about the transition from acting to the director's chair and the inspiration behind this "smart New York rom-com." Because there was so much to dig into regarding the writing process and this stellar cast, we have the entire conversation for you today, presented in two parts.Fantasy Life opens in New York on March 27th, with a nationwide theatrical release on April 3rd. Let's get into my interview with Matthew Shear.

On this episode he talks about writing that script, never thinking he'd star in it, nor direct it, and what had to change to make him see those possibilities. He explains why he wanted to tell a story about "mental health embedded in a normal world," why The Barrow Group suited him well in his younger days, how he learned to "not get in the way" of the scene, and much more.
