Few filmmakers have a style as bold, romantic and unmistakable as Baz Luhrmann. From his breakout debut Strictly Ballroom to the glittering spectacle of The Great Gatsby starring Leonardo DiCaprio, and the fever-dream energy of Elvis, Luhrmann has built a career on transforming familiar stories into cinematic events. In this episode, he takes us inside one of his most iconic creative decisions: the unforgettable fish tank scene in his 1996 adaptation of Romeo + Juliet - and reveals how that moment came to life. We also explore his latest project, EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, a return to Elvis Presley through newly uncovered footage from the legendary Las Vegas residency. Beyond the films, Luhrmann reflects on the journey that shaped him. Raised in Herons Creek, a tiny rural town in New South Wales, Australia, he grew up surrounded by performance and storytelling: his father ran a quirky petrol station and cinema, while his mother owned a dress shop and taught ballroom dancing. We discuss the setbacks that tested him, his unconventional audition process, his enduring creative partnership with his wife and the viral TikTok moment that sent the internet into a frenzy. I hope you enjoy this candid, wide-ranging conversation with one of modern cinema's great showmen. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 02:28 Creativity as Self‑Medication 05:52 Why Elvis? 09:22 The Romeo + Juliet Fish Tank Origin Story 11:01 Everybody's Free to Wear Sunscreen: The Accidental Hit 13:56 Failure #1: Losing Instincts, Depression and Finding the Way Back 26:16 Casting Without Auditions: Baz's Workshop Method 27:58 Creating a Fear-Free Room 28:47 The Big Break That Became a Public Flop 30:56 Rebounding with Strictly Ballroom 32:19 Choosing Collaborators 33:36 Marriage and Deep Trust 35:42 Criticism and Staying Humble (Plus the Viral TikTok Moment) 40:38 Future-Focused Filmmaking & Final Reflections

Bram komt net terug van een boeiende reis naar Taiwan, waar hij een kijkje mocht nemen in de fabriek van Google, waar onder meer de vernieuwingen in de Pixel-telefoons worden gemaakt. Ook sprak hij met Android-topman Seang Chau. Verder vandaag: opvallende uitspraak van Netflix en de HDR van Disney+, toch weer gedoe met de smart home-gadgets van IKEA, China heeft sci-fi-oorlogsdromen, een Europese browser is klaar met AI en in Australië hebben ze een doeltreffende manier bedacht om met illegale e-bikes om te gaan. Tips uit deze aflevering: 3D-printer: Op de redactie van Bright staat sinds kort een Elegoo Centauri Carbon 2: een best betaalbare 3D-printer waar iedereen enthousiast omheen dromt. Een aanrader voor elk bedrijf: 3D-printen blijkt prima teambuilding. Serie: Monarch seizoen 2 begint eind 27 februari op Apple TV. Mooi moment om het eerste seizoen te bekijken als je dat gemist hebt. De serie speelt zich af in het Godzilla-universum en volgt de oprichting van Monarch, de organisatie die Godzilla en andere giganten volgt en probeert te stoppen. Springt steeds tussen twee tijden, waarin Kurt Russell en zijn zoon Wyatt hetzelfde personage spelen. Onzin, maar wel leuke onzin met prima special effects. Serie: Wil je even geen tech of scifi? Ik heb net twee seizoenen Bodemvan maker en hoofdrolspeler Eva Crutzen back-to-back gekeken. Volgens Erwin de beste Nederlandse serie van 21ste eeuw: doet denken aan Fleabag van Phoebe Waller-Bridge, ook zo’n topserie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Writer Files: Writing, Productivity, Creativity, and Neuroscience
Acclaimed debut novelist Rosie Storey spoke with us about her rejection advice for writers, chasing personal authenticity, and the "accidental catfishing" at the heart of DANDELION IS DEAD. Rosie Storey left her corporate career to finish her hotly anticipated debut novel, Dandelion Is Dead. The book received significant buzz in early 2026, including a January 2026 Indie Next selection, an exclusive excerpt on Today.com, an NPR interview, coverage from Reader's Digest, being long listed for the Bath Novel Award, and optioned for TV, among many others. Described as a “... witty, heart-wrenching debut that follows a woman who starts dating under her late sister's online profile,” and a “... ‘messy millennial' story that's Fleabag meets P.S. I Love You.” Booklist said of the book, “Storey's debut novel is striking, with staggeringly complex characters and messy situations reminiscent of real life…. filled with intimacy and kindness….Fast-paced but never hurried.” #1 New York Times bestselling author Carley Fortune called it “... the perfect book club book.” Rosie Storey holds a master's in creative writing, and lives in East London, where she works as a writing coach. She is working on her second book. [This episode is sponsored by Ulysses.

Except my girlypop Fleabag! I'm proud of her.
What if the most important love story in your life isn't romantic at all?In our brand new episode, journalist and author Deepanjana Pal talks about her novel, Lightning in a Shot Glass. It's a witty, radical look at two Mumbai flatmates navigating love, life, and ambition on their own terms.Tara and Deepanjana dive into why female friendships are often the real love stories of our lives and how having chosen family keeps us grounded. They challenge the notion of genre hierarchies while showing that love stories can be smart and fun.Deepanjana also gets candid about the messier parts of life, from workplace politics and abuse of authority to age-gap and interfaith romance. By bringing these real-world messes into the conversation, she proves that fiction can be both joyful and deeply authentic at the same time.If you're looking to dive into something that's as smart and fun as it is unapologetically real, this episode is for you!Books and TV Shows mentioned in the episode:Younger (2015)Four More Shots Please!

Who also wishes they were a fly on the wall during the Sexhibition? Anyone? Am I the only one raising my hand? I definitely know I'm not! I do really wish I had been there when Fleabag shattered those glasses, because I would have given her a standing ovation. Someone had to stand up to the evil Godmother! We've gotten to the final episode of this season but do not worry, cause we will go ahead and finish Season 2 before we move on to a different TV show. Keep tuning in every week to stay in touch with our girlypop, Fleabag.
Have you ever felt completely confused after talking to a British person?You understood every word — the grammar was clear, the vocabulary was familiar — but something felt off. You left the conversation thinking: Did they like it? Did they agree with me? Or were they being polite… or critical?If that has ever happened to you, you're not imagining things — and you're definitely not alone.In today's episode, we talk about The British Code: the polite, indirect way British people communicate and why what they say is often very different from what they actually mean.British people are famous for being polite, but that politeness often hides true opinions. Instead of being direct, we soften language, avoid conflict, and try not to “cause a fuss.” The result? A lot of confusion for non-Brits.In this episode, you'll learn:• What Brits really mean when they say interesting, original or that's a brave decision• How polite disagreement works in British English• Why Brits say sorry when they're not apologising• How words like just and a bit soften requests• Why understatement is such a key part of British communicationEnglish isn't just grammar and vocabulary — it's culture. And British English is full of hidden meaning. Once you understand the code, conversations start to make a lot more sense.
When push comes to shove OR slap- Just remember that no one is having a worst day than any member of Fleabag's family. Now picture them all together around the dining room table having interact with each other... This show is not a comedy- It's a horror movie.
She's narrated dozens of spicy romances, but nothing prepared her for weaponizing the “forced proximity” trope in real life. One meddling sister, one hot neighbor, and a whole lot of cheese dip. Welcome to the romcom multiverse. It's Romcom meets meta-fiction, with a wink at Hallmark-style setups and a dash of Gen-Z snark. Think To All the Boys I've Loved Before meets Emily Henry by way of Fleabag.Format: 9 episodes, 20-30 minutes each.

The silent retreat is not a success story when one of your attendees leaves because she needed a little bit of silence... Yikes! In this episode we find out why Claire brought such tiny batteries to the retreat, and why she has been acting so weird the whole weekend. Here's a tip: Money makes her cry!
It's finally Claire's non-surprise SURPRISE party, and it's just as chaotic that you would expect it to be. Bad dates are brought, kisses are flung, partygoers were passive aggressive with each other and stolen items were given as birthday gifts. Also, can we all agree that Martin is horrible? We can? Great!
This episode contains description of addiction, eating disorders and discussion of suicide. Our guest today is the pioneering comedian, actor and activist Margaret Cho. She began performing comedy as a teenager, opening for Jerry Seinfeld at just 14, before becoming one of the most influential stand-ups of her generation. Now in her 50s, Margaret reflects in this episode on the cancellation of her groundbreaking sitcom, All-American Girl, and the surreal "miscalculations" of a network that hired consultants to ensure she was "doing Asian right". She speaks candidly about the "mind f***" of being told she was "too fat to play herself", which triggered a dangerous spiral into disordered eating, 90s diet drugs and eventual kidney failure. She opens up about a suicidal near-death experience that she was initially too afraid to admit even to herself - and about the intervention by friends that finally led her to sobriety. This conversation explores shame, rage and the life-saving importance of humour. Because, as Margaret says, sometimes laughter can be the thing that keeps you breathing. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 04:37 Childhood Reflections 06:59 Political and Social Commentary 10:43 The Sitcom Experience 18:35 Body Image and Health Struggles 26:13 Legacy and Influence 26:54 The Struggle with Diet Culture 28:34 Embarrassing Moments on Stage 32:10 Family Influence on Weight Issues 33:22 Seeking Help and Therapy 34:05 Childhood Abuse and Its Impact 37:27 Battling Drug and Alcohol Addiction 43:09 Intervention and Recovery 46:51 Finding Hope and Happiness
Men, please learn to love yourself just a tiny bit or else you will keep coming back to someone who LITERALLY does not like you and neither does she R-E-S-P-E-C-T you... Cough, cough: I'm talking to you, Harry! Also, Fleabag deserves to be with someone who would find her "surprise" funny- Not someone who will be traumatized for life because of it. LOL. Enjoy episode 2!

Welcome back to a new season, f*cked up fam! After 19 seasons, I am finally brave enough to cover this gem of a show. I'm also attempting this new thing where I try to summarize instead of giving you a play-by-play recap of the whole episode, and guess how that is going...? Not great. I genuinely think I am incapable of summarizing OR I just love the writing in this show so much that I want to share it with y'all

In today's Daily Fix:PlayStation and J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot Games have announced a new multiplayer game as part of the companies' partnership. While PlayStation's multiplayer-centric offerings have not hit as of late (except Helldivers 2), there is hope that this game will find an audience considering it's being helmed by Left 4 Dead's Mike Booth. In other news, Amazon's Tomb Raider series is not only rebooting the live-action Lara Croft adventures, but will "reinvent the franchise on a massive scale" by connecting the show to the games in a "unified storytelling universe." Fleabag's Phoebe Waller-Bridge is showrunning, and the series is expected to go into production early next year. And finally, Creative Assembly hosted a 25th Anniversary showcase, featuring new Total War projects, including the next mainline historical game: Total War: Medieval 3. A new game engine, Warcore, will also power new entries on console for the first time.
Today we're speaking with Oscar-nominated Australian-born editor, Paul Machliss, ACE. We'll be talking about his latest collaboration with director Edgar Wright, “The Running Man.”Paul last chatted on Art of the Cut when he cut Wright's “Last Night in Soho,” and before that for “Baby Driver” for which he won a BAFTA, and was nominated for an ACE Eddie and an Oscar. Paul was also nominated for an ACE Eddie for his work on “Scott Pilgrim versus the World.” He's edited TV, including “Fleabag.” And dozens of musical specials, documentaries and concerts for the likes of Led Zeppelin and Diana Krall.This interview discusses how Paul's early career as an on-line editor helped him on this film, the value of editing on-set, and the technology that kept the whole post machine whirring.If you want to read along with this interview, you can check it out on BorisFX.com's blog site:borisfx.com/blog/aotc

Buy Caroline's book here. The Blurb: From the single ladies of Beyoncé and Taylor Swift songs to Phoebe Waller-Bridge's irreverent television series Fleabag (2016–2019) to as far back as Miss Havisham in Great Expectations, the stereotype of the damaged single woman has long pervaded music, books, television, and Hollywood movies. Spinster tropes, witch burnings, and nineteenth-century diagnoses of hysteria have reflected and continue to inform the stories told about society's singletons, most notoriously in the original bunny boiler, Fatal Attraction (1987), and popularized in Single White Female (1992) and Promising Young Woman (2020). In Single & Psycho, author Caroline Young explores how broader social trends such as the antifeminist backlash of the 1980s, contemporary debates about tradwives and childless cat ladies, and the absence of single women of color on-screen shape the way women are (mis)perceived and (mis)treated. Young weaves the history of a stereotype with her own fight against stigma as a single woman as well as her struggles with infertility, infusing incisive analysis with personal experience in this approachable, savvy exposé of one of mainstream media's most enduring clichés. Single & Psycho: How Pop Culture Created the Unstable Single Woman is a dynamic addition to the ongoing dialogue surrounding the #MeToo movement and societal expectations of women.

Over mushroomy eggs and quiche, we cover her extraordinary career in both English and French -- from her baptism-by-fire debut opposite Prince in “Under the Cherry Moon” to her viral “Fleabag” monologue.

Happy Tuesday, everyone! I love when I get the opportunity to sit down with someone who I really respect as an actor and Brett Gelman is definitely one of those people. You know Brett from playing Murray on Stranger Things and Martin on Fleabag, plus roles in The Other Guys, Strays and McVeigh. The roles that Brett plays are hilarious and there's always a darkness to them— I found it so interesting to learn more about his approach to building a character. We talk about our acting idols and having the humility to continue studying even after you find success. In fact, this conversation convinced me to start working with an acting coach again! Plus, we discuss how Star Wars inspired both of us to become actors and which Star Wars character informed his role as Murray in Stranger Things. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the interview and answer fan questions from the Mail Sack!
