Kim Masters talks to writer & director Larry Charles about his new memoir Comedy Samurai. He shares stories about writing for Seinfeld, directing Curb Your Enthusiasm, and his chaotic experiences working with Sacha Baron Cohen on Borat and Bruno. Charles also tells the story of an early morning call from Ari Emanuel that pulled the plug on his Larry David documentary the day before its HBO premiere. Also, it's official: Paramount has settled with Donald Trump over a long-disputed 60 Minutes segment. The company agreed to pay $16 million, a move that could clear the path for David Ellison's long-anticipated Skydance merger. Kim Masters and Matt Belloni break down what this means for Paramount's future… and what an Ellison-led studio might look like.

Y'all, we're diving deep into the world of George R.R. Martin and his epic saga, A Song of Ice and Fire. It's time to get real about the long-awaited next installment and why fans are getting restless.What's cooking in this episode:The 13-year wait for "The Winds of Winter" and why it's driving fans crazyWhy Martin's teases and excuses are wearing thinThe impact of HBO's Game of Thrones on Martin's writing processThe struggle between artistic integrity and fan expectationsWarning: This episode might ruffle some feathers, especially if you're a hardcore Martin defender. We're not pulling any punches here – it's time for some tough love for the man behind Westeros.Remember, winter isn't the only thing that's coming – hopefully, "The Winds of Winter" is too. But are we willing to wait forever?

It's a confusing time to travel. Tourism is projected to hit record-breaking levels this year, and its toll on the culture and ecosystems of popular vacation spots is increasingly hard to ignore. Social media pushes hoards to places unable to withstand the traffic, while the rise of “last-chance” travel—the rush to see melting glaciers or deteriorating coral reefs before they're gone forever—has turned the precarity of these destinations into a selling point. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz explore the question of why we travel. They trace the rich history of travel narratives, from the memoirs of Marco Polo and nineteenth-century accounts of the Grand Tour to shows like Anthony Bourdain's “Parts Unknown” and HBO's “The White Lotus.” Why are we compelled to pack a bag and set off, given the growing number of reasons not to do so? “One thing that's really important for me as a traveller is the experience of being foreign,” Schwartz says. “I'm starting to realize that there are places I may never go, and this has actually made other people's accounts of them, in the deeper sense, more important.”This episode originally aired on June 13, 2024. Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“The New Tourist,” by Paige McClanahanThe “Lonely Planet” guidebooks“The Travels of Marco Polo,” by Rustichello da Pisa“Of Travel,” by Francis Bacon“The Innocents Abroad,” by Mark Twain“Self-Reliance,” by Ralph Waldo Emerson“Travels through France and Italy,” by Tobias Smollett“Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown” (2013-18)“The White Lotus” (2021—)“Conan O'Brien Must Go” (2024)“It Just Got Easier to Visit a Vanishing Glacier.

When your last name is Spielberg, there's naturally a certain legacy, but our guest today is Destry Allyn Spielberg, a talented director and actor who's confidently stepping into her own light, proving her unique voice and vision away from her famous father Steven Spielberg. You might know Destry from her acting roles, including her memorable performance in Paul Thomas Anderson's critically acclaimed "Licorice Pizza," as well as her work in the HBO limited series "I Know This Much Is True." She's also appeared in independent films like "Mass Hysteria." But it's in the director's chair where she's really been making waves. Destry's demonstrated a keen eye for storytelling with her striking short films "Rosie" (which she also acted in) and "Let Me Go the Right Way," which premiered at Tribeca and earned praise for its compelling narrative and performances. And now, she's made her highly anticipated feature directorial debut with the chilling psychological thriller, "Please Don't Feed the Children." This film, written by Paul Bertino, plunges us into a post-apocalyptic world where a deadly virus has targeted adults, leaving a group of orphans searching for safety. The cinematography, handled by Shane Sigler, the cast include Michelle Dockery from "Downton Abbey" in a uniquely villainous role, alongside the brilliant Giancarlo Esposito from "Breaking Bad," and a talented young ensemble including Zoe Colletti, Andrew Liner, Dean Scott Vazquez, Regan Aliyah, Emma Meisel, Joshuah Melnick, and Vernon Davis. Destry Allyn Spielberg is an exciting new voice, building a remarkable body of work that stands on its own merits, while undeniably carrying that incredible filmmaking DNA.

Watson breaks down his audition for Duster, a role he knew was 'for him' viscerally from the first read, despite receiving dummy sides. Discover his unique, methodical approach to character preparation—taking 'Royce' for walks in real life and building a character from birth to present.

Mariska Hargitay says the new documentary she made began as a search for the mother she never knew. But as she pursued it, she wound up coming to a new understanding of her own truth. Mariska and Marc talk about My Mom Jayne, the HBO doc about her mother Jayne Mansfield, who died in a car accident when Mariska was only three. Mariska explains why she kept her mother's story at arm's length through most of her life, even as she carved her own path of success in Hollywood, and how she ultimately embraced the revelations about her parents.

Interview with Dave Lewis Organizations believe they have a firm grip on security with SSO and corporate IT policies, but in reality, shadow IT lurks in the background—expanding attack surfaces and exposing sensitive data. Employees bypass security controls for the sake of convenience, while SSO fails to provide the comprehensive security net organizations expect. Talk about the critical weaknesses in traditional SSO implementations, how shadow IT thrives under the radar, and why enterprises continue to experience data breaches despite security investments. Can cover real-world examples of security failures, highlight the role of human behavior in risk, and provide actionable strategies to regain control over enterprise security. This segment is sponsored by 1Password. Visit https://securityweekly.com/1password to learn more about them! Topic Segment: Is AI taking our jerbs or not? I listened to most of a debate between Marcus Hutchins and Daniel Miessler over whether generative AI will be good enough to replace a lot of jobs (Daniel's take), or so bad that it won't take any (Marcus's take). I got frustrated though, because I feel like some foundational assumptions were ignored, and not enough examples were shared or prepared. Assumption #1: Jobs exist because work needs to be done. This is a false assumption. Check out a book called "Bullshit Jobs" to go down this particular rabbit hole. Assumption #2: The primary task of a job is the job. This is rarely the case, unless you work in the service industry. How much of a developer's job is writing code? A lot less than you think. Employees spend a massive amount of time communicating with other employees, via meetings, emails, Slack chats - can AI replace this? Maybe all that communication is wasteful and inefficient? Could be, but for every job AI supposedly replaces, it becomes someone else's job to manage that AI agent. Does all of middle management become expert prompt engineers, or do they also disappear with no employees to manage? Assumption #3: Jobs aren't already being replaced. They are, they're just not terribly visible jobs. That contractor your marketing team was using to build blog/SEO content? He's probably gone. The in-house or contract graphic designer? Probably gone. There's a whole swath of jobs out there, where quality isn't very important, but work needs to be produced, and those jobs are being actively replaced with generative AI. With that said, I don't see any full time jobs that require quality work and a lot of communication with other employees getting replaced. Yet? Ever? That's the question. The Enterprise News In this week's enterprise security news, Not much interesting funding to discuss Securonix acquires ThreatQuotient Cellebrite acquires Corellium (that sounds a lot like a rock bought a stone or a gem or something) Yet another free vulnerability database ChatGPT can now clandestinely record meetings Threat detection resources a VERY expensive Zoom call (for the victim) Should we stop using SOC2s?

At the heart of New York's Gilded Age — the late 19th-century era of unprecedented American wealth and excess — were families with the names Astor, Waldorf, Schermerhorn, and Vanderbilt, alongside power players like A.T. Stewart, Jay Gould and William “Boss” Tweed.They would all make their homes — and in the case of the Vanderbilts, their great many homes — on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue.The image of Fifth Avenue as a luxury retail destination today grew from the street's aristocratic reputation in the 1800s. The rich were inextricably drawn to the avenue as early as the 1830s when rich merchants, anxious to be near the exquisite row houses of Washington Square Park, began turning it into an artery of expensive abodes.In this podcast, Tom and Greg present a world that's somewhat hard to imagine — free-standing mansions in an exclusive corridor running right through the center of Manhattan. Why was Fifth Avenue fated to become the domain of the so-called “Upper Ten”? And what changed about the city in the 20th century to ensure the eventual destruction of most of them?The following is a re-edited, remastered version of two past Bowery Boys shows — the Rise and Fall of the Fifth Avenue Mansion. Combined, this tells the whole story of Fifth Avenue, from the initial development of streets in the 1820s to its Midtown transformation into a mecca of high-end shopping in the 1930s. This could also serve as a primer to the HBO series The Gilded Age, the official podcast co-hosted by Tom Meyers!

Allison Williams' filmography is loaded with variety, but it's also packed with examples of how one project can influence another — even if they're in entirely different genres. There's the hit HBO comedy-drama series Girls, which first sent Williams' star skyrocketing. As that show wound down, Williams headlined a feature film for the very first time, Jordan Peele's Academy Award-winning horror movie Get Out. Williams continued to enjoy great success in the genre, but wound up exploring an entirely different corner of it with the horror-comedy M3GAN. Now, M3GAN 2.0 let's her do just that yet again as the horror-comedy concept becomes a horror-comedy-action film.M3GAN 2.0 picks up about two years after the events of the original film. Since Gemma's (Williams) A.I. creation went on a murderous rampage, she's put her focus on advocating for government oversight of artificial intelligence. However, when Gemma discovers that the M3gan tech wasn't entirely destroyed and was used to create a military-grade weapon called Amelia (Ivanna Sakhno), she's left with no choice but to resurrect and team up with M3gan to stop Amelia from growing too far beyond the control of her human creators.With M3GAN 2.0 now playing in theaters nationwide, Williams joined me for a Collider Ladies Night conversation to retrace her journey in film and television thus far, and to dig into how her craft in front of and behind the lens has evolved.

About Jamie Neumann Jamie Neumann is a force on screen, known for disappearing into roles that live in the gray area. She broke out with her powerful performance as a sex worker-turned-activist in HBO's The Deuce, and kept audiences on edge in Lovecraft Country, Jessica Jones, and Donald Glover's Atlanta, where she played a foster parent whose well-meaning liberalism went dangerously off course. She's worked across genres and with some of the most visionary creators in the game—David Simon, Jordan Peele, Donald Glover, and more—always bringing raw intensity and soul to her characters. With recent credits including Twisted Metal, 61st Street, NOS4A2, and American Rust, Jamie continues to prove she's not just in the scene—she is the scene. In this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Jamie Neumann joins us to break down her latest role in THIRSTY and what it really takes to portray a woman balancing purpose, power, and personal sacrifice. We talk about the cost of ambition, the emotional layers of playing Audrey Allen, and how Jamie chooses roles that shake the audience out of comfort and into truth. If you're into storytelling that hits hard, characters that leave a mark, and conversations that go deeper than the script—this one's for you.ABOUT THIRSTY, AVAILABLE ON DEMAND  THIRSTY follows the upstart campaign of an audacious attorney Audrey Allen (Jamie Neumann) as she strives to unseat the incumbent mayor of Oakland. Driven by her rough upbringing and altruistic desires, Audrey is willing to endure the relentless demands of campaign life. This is a woman who fights to win. Audrey's criticism of the popular incumbent mayor Maya King (Brandee Evans) motivates a veteran of the political game Anne Dixon (Kyra Sedgwick) to bolster her struggling campaign. Audrey's skeptical husband Tae Kim (Sung Kang) views Anne's behavior as machiavellian but fails to convince his wife to move more cautiously. Audrey is blinded by ambition and subsequently thrust into the limelight with her family in tow.Anne's go-to political operative Valentina Ramos (Briana Venskus-Vazquez) isn't Audrey's fan but reluctantly becomes her campaign manager anyway. They clash over tactical issues and Audrey's charismatic field manager Derek Williams (Tyler Lepley) often steps in as referee. As the campaign gains momentum, T.K. becomes increasingly alienated and the tensions in their marriage escalate. Audrey's daughter Eunbi also feels the sting of her mother's absence. At Anne's behest, Audrey keeps her troubled sister Sonia (Thora Birch) at arm's length but this strategy soon becomes untenable. As election day approaches, Audrey is guilt-ridden for not being a more involved mother, sister and wife but nevertheless remains consumed by election fever. Soon she is confronted with impossible decisions that put both her career and her family on the line. Audrey must reconcile the seduction of the political game with her own moral compass or risk losing it all.Here's the trailer:Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFDLmvITe1c Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.

Ten years on, 45 Years hasn't lost an ounce of its emotional weight. In fact, it might just cut deeper. On this episode, host and Seventh Row Editor-in-Chief Alex Heeney is joined by Lindsay Pugh (Woman in Revolt) to revisit Andrew Haigh's masterpiece about a childless couple celebrating their 45 the wedding anniversary in the same week that a traumatic secret from the past comes to light. We talk about: What makes this story hit differently as we have aged Why the film's focus on emotional repression, delayed gratification, and public performance feels so radical How Haigh's queer lens shapes his portrayal of a straight relationship What gets added (and deepened) in the move from short story to screenplay Why Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay deliver two of the most nuanced, unforgettable performances of the century How Haigh's blocking — the way actors move through space and interact physically — works hand-in-hand with the dialogue to show us what's shifting beneath the surface, like tension, avoidance, closeness, or control Whether you're watching for the first time or the fifteenth, 45 Years is a film that evolves with you — and we unpack why.

Caos, redención y una cena que lo cambia todo. Así podría resumirse el cierre de la cuarta temporada de The Bear, un episodio que convierte la cocina más estresante de Chicago en un ring de confesiones a corazón abierto. Analizamos la metamorfosis de Carmy, que pasa de chef devorado por el perfeccionismo a hermano dispuesto —por fin— a escuchar; el salto de Sydney, que reclama su voz en el menú y en la vida; y el giro inesperado de Richie, ahora brújula emocional de un equipo que parecía condenado a arder. Hablamos del reencuentro con Donna, capaz de desatar tormentas con una mirada, del tic-tac financiero que acecha al restaurante, y de cómo la obsesión por la estrella Michelin acaba revelando que el verdadero premio es aprender a cuidarse sin gritar “¡Sí, chef!” todo el rato. Exploramos los grandes temas que deja la serie —desde la familia encontrada y el duelo nunca resuelto hasta la delgada línea entre ambición y autodestrucción— y reflexionamos sobre el legado que The Bear deja en la televisión contemporánea: un recordatorio de que la vulnerabilidad también se cocina a fuego alto. ¡Dale al play y acompáñanos en este repaso final lleno de spoilers, cuchillos afilados y más de una lectura oculta que quizá no viste venir!

In this very wide-ranging conversation, the two touch on numerous topics, including: communing with the dead, St. Peter as a Pauline Kael archetype, Tyrese Haliburton's Game 7 injury in the context of stoic masculinity, the Abrahamic idea of God as surveillance system, why humans are seemingly hastening the end of the world, a discussion of the two AIs — Allen Iverson and artificial intelligence, plus Terence being fired by Warner Bros. as the writer-director of Space Jam 2, and how he handled the aftermath of that.

In 2003, when the author James Frey published his first book, A Million Little Pieces—a gut-punch account of his experience with addiction and rehab—nobody could have expected what would come next. Thanks to an Oprah Book Club endorsement, A Million Little Pieces was instantly catapulted to bestseller status, but soon blew up in scandal after Frey admitted to having falsified certain portions of the book, which had been marketed as a memoir. The drama that ensued sparked a media controversy—one that now, around 20 years later, feels petty and misplaced, especially in the context of today's cancel-culture climate. More than 10 million copies of A Million Little Pieces have sold since, and Frey is still at it, writing, publishing, and pushing the boundaries of his art. His latest novel, Next to Heaven, is a rollicking, raunchy, absurd-yet-not satire about money, murder, and the all-too-human desires for power, pleasure, and greed. On the episode—our Season 11 finale, in which Frey sat lotus for the entire duration—he reflects on the A Million Little Pieces saga; his long-term study of Taoism; writing as a gateway to vulnerability; and why love, for him, is the greatest drug there is.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, Van Cleef & Arpels.Show notes:James Frey[5:08] “Tao Te Ching”[5:08] Lao Tzu[5:08] Stephen Mitchell[5:08] Taoism[8:51] Cubism[13:11] “A Million Little Pieces” (2003)[14:16] “Next To Heaven” (2025)[14:16] New Canaan, Connecticut[17:14] Jackie Collins[17:14] “Hollywood Wives” (1983)[17:14] Danielle Steel[21:35] Honoré de Balzac[29:37] “Katerina” (2018) [29:37] “Full Fathom Five” (1947) by Jackson Pollock[37:14] “Larry King Live” (2006)[39:09] “Tropic of Cancer” (1971)[42:24] “Up to Me” (1985)[44:20] “Kissing a Fool” (1998)[52:22] “My Friend Leonard” (2005)[52:22] “Bright Shiny Morning” (2008)[52:22] “The Final Testament” (2011)[58:56] “Author Is Kicked Out of Oprah Winfrey's Book Club”[58:56] “James Frey: ‘I Always Wanted to Be the Outlaw'”[01:03:18] Bret Easton Ellis[01:03:18] Jay McInerney[01:03:18] Norman Mailer[01:10:54] Rashid Johnson[01:10:54] HBO's “Native Son” (2019)

There's a whole big world out there that isn't about politics and Bill and his guests—from Bill Burr and Jerry Seinfeld to Jordan Peterson, Quentin Tarantino and Neil DeGrasse Tyson—talk about all of it.  For advertising opportunities please email: PodcastPartnerships@Studio71us.com ABOUT BILL MAHER Bill Maher was the host of “Politically Incorrect” (Comedy Central, ABC) from 1993-2002, and for the last fourteen years on HBO's “Real Time,” Maher's combination of unflinching honesty and big laughs have garnered him 40 Emmy nominations. Maher won his first Emmy in 2014 as executive producer for the HBO series, “VICE.” In October of 2008, this same combination was on display in Maher's uproarious and unprecedented swipe at organized religion, “Religulous.” Maher has written five bestsellers: “True Story,” “Does Anybody Have a Problem with That? Politically Incorrect's Greatest Hits,” “When You Ride Alone, You Ride with Bin Laden,” “New Rules: Polite Musings from a Timid Observer,” and most recently, “The New New Rules: A Funny Look at How Everybody But Me Has Their Head Up Their Ass.” FOLLOW CLUB RANDOM https://www.clubrandom.com https://www.facebook.com/Club-Random-101776489118185 https://twitter.com/clubrandom_ https://www.instagram.com/clubrandompodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@clubrandompodcast FOLLOW BILL MAHER https://www.billmaher.com https://twitter.com/billmaher https://www.instagram.com/billmaher Learn more about your ad choices.
