Podcast appearances and mentions of Gene Shalit

RUNDOWN Mitch and Scott catch up after Scott's softball tournament weekend, debate whether a hole-in-one on an executive course should really count, and work through another round of birthday trivia featuring Pistol Pete Maravich, Clyde Drexler, Kurt Warner, Meryl Streep, Kris Kristofferson, Cyndi Lauper, and Barenaked Ladies founder Steven Page. The Mariners limp toward the halfway point battling injuries, an offense that continues to struggle against left-handed pitching, and lingering questions about the piggyback pitching experiment. Mitch, Joe, and Brady discuss Dom Canzone's emergence as an everyday player, Logan Gilbert's recent dominance, the club's ability to stay afloat despite mounting absences, and what lies ahead against Pittsburgh and Cleveland. Stretch joins Mitch to explain why this year's World Cup feels different despite being hosted in the United States, recounting three decades of World Cup adventures with his brother while breaking down Team USA's unexpected success. The conversation covers Seattle's electric atmosphere, the Americans' path through the knockout rounds, and why a potential Round of 16 match at Lumen Field could become one of the biggest sporting events in Seattle history. Bob Harig joins Mitch from Shinnecock Hills to break down Wyndham Clark's controversial victory, why golf fans have been slow to embrace him, and Scottie Scheffler's frustrating near-miss at the career Grand Slam. They also discuss Joaquin Niemann's costly penalty, Tiger Woods' uncertain future, Phil Mickelson's complicated legacy, and why Shinnecock remains one of the most polarizing U.S. Open venues in golf.   GUESTS   Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over-Slot Matt Stretch Johnson | Former Sounders broadcaster and longtime World Cup traveler Bob Harig | Golf writer and author of "Tiger vs. Jack: Golf's Greatest Debate"   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Hole-in-one controversies, Birthday Trivia, and a Mariners Injury Crisis. 18:52 | Mariners No-Table: Injuries Mount as the Mariners Search for Answers. 34:39 | Matt Stretch Johnson: World Cup Fever hits Seattle as Team USA Makes a Surprising Run. 1:00:02 | Bob Harig: Wyndham Clark Silences the Haters with a Second U.S. Open Title. 1:18:46 | Other Stuff: Cade Horton dominance in Double-A, Jazz Chisholm Jr. foul ball injury, Knicks players reportedly abstaining from sex during championship run, Argentina-Algeria fan brawl in Times Square, Jacob Misiorowski's "rough" outing, Floyd Mayweather lawsuits and bad-check allegations, Shohei Ohtani welcomes second child, Arizona woman arrested after speeding to get home for Love Island.

Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (6.15) The FIFA World Cup is heating up at SoFi Stadium with New Zealand and Iran battling to a wild 2–2 tie. Tim pays tribute to the iconic Gene Shalit, the legendary “Today” Show movie critic with the wild hair and even wilder reviews, who passed away at the amazing age of 100. Rod Stewart ditched his San Diego show at the last second because of laryngitis, then immediately hopped on a plane to Boston to watch Scotland play in the World Cup — talk about mixed priorities! The crew also chats about the new TLC show “Little Singles,” the insane parking hustle around SoFi where locals are charging fans to park on their property, and a disturbing case of 21 pregnant spaniels left sweltering in a U-Haul. Tim boasts he can go a full 12 hours without looking at his phone, and gives a big “Atta boy!” to Jordan Staal and the Carolina Hurricanes for winning the Stanley Cup. Pure Conway randomness at its finest. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hour 1: Santa Cruz native, Oliver Tree, and 6 others were killed in a helicopter accident in Brazil. TODAY show movie critic, Gene Shalit, passed away at the age of 100. Vinnie thinks Timothee Chalamet should be embarrassed. The irony of a plane crash full of parachuters. When it rains it pours, a woman in Brazil died from a rope jumping accident. Less than ⅓ of people have met a great-grandparent. Hour 2: ‘Disclosure Day' opened at #1 but with a softer opening than Spielberg's team was hoping for.

Route 66 is turning 100, but high gas prices might kill the party. Fox is buying Roku, so we're making sure we know what that is. Plus, can you guess which celebrity had each random job?

In today's edition of The Update Journal, we begin with a summer watchlist that technically came out four years ago, but emotionally still feels like it needs a viewer discretion warning, a glass of water, and somebody posted near the light switch. I'm rewatching Interview With the Vampire in the daytime this time, because the first attempt had too much biting, too much tension, and too many moments where I had to change the channel like I was hiding evidence from a grand jury. This is not casual television. This is a series you watch with the blinds open, the volume controlled, and the full understanding that AMC was trying to make people nervous in multiple ways at once.Then, we pay tribute to Bill Ritter, a true New York news legend stepping away from the anchor desk after a deeply personal announcement that none of us were emotionally prepared for. For years, Bill was one of those voices you expected to be there when the day got messy, when the city got loud, and when New York needed somebody calm enough to explain what just happened without making us panic more. His announcement hit hard because he was not just reading the news — he became part of the rhythm of the city. It is the end of an era, the kind where you suddenly realize somebody has been in your living room longer than half the furniture, and somehow more reliable than the Wi-Fi.And finally, The Last Word looks ahead to Game 5 in San Antonio, where the Knicks are one win away from history, one win away from a championship, and one win away from making New York act like every horn, firework, group chat, and folding table in the five boroughs got activated at the same time. This is the kind of moment fans dream about, stress about, and somehow turn into a public safety meeting before tipoff. If the Knicks finish the job, the city may not sleep for three days — and if there's a parade, I will be celebrating from a secure undisclosed location called “my house.”In the headlines on #TheUpdate this Saturday, beloved WABC anchor Bill Ritter said he's stepping down from the role and shared he's been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in a moving statement to audiences. Meanwhile, Gene Shalit, a movie critic and arts reporter for the “Today” show over four decades who was known for his puffy hair, oversized handlebar mustache and affection for groan-inducing puns, has died. He was 100.Early voting starts in New York's Democratic primaries — with several high-profile races involving far-left insurgents backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani aiming to take down moderate incumbents.And residents in tornado-ravaged areas in Illinois and Indiana were grappling with the damage to their homes and neighborhoods, after the strong line of storms barreled through communities south of Chicago and left trails of destruction. Cleanup efforts were underway, and utility companies said power restoration efforts could extend into next week.

Original Release Date: Monday 15 June 2026    Description:   In a rather shocking cold open, Phil reveals not only that he has World Cup Fever, but also that he is genuinely thrilled about the early tournament achievement accomplished by Team Canada! Brief remembrances of artist David Hockney and journalist Gene Shalit (both of whom died during the past few days) are offered. Then, things turn dark, as Dean and Phil explore some of the shabbiest corners of show business, with the latest on the impending Paramount merger with Warner Bros. and the return of the It Ends With Us lawsuit between director Justin Baldoni and star Blake Lively. Last week Dean and Phil talked about actress Ann Savage, who starred in Dean's all-time favorite My Winnipeg. This week, Phil reveals to Dean that the Academy Museum will be hosting a “Weekend with Guy Maddin” featuring four of this master filmmaker's greatest works. Dean convinces Phil to attend the entire weekend. A couple weeks back, Dean and Phil discussed the all-time classic Some Like it Hot and in so doing, Dean made some comments about that film's indelible supporting player Joe E. Brown that inspired friend of the show Maurice Terenzio to hunt and peck his way through a lengthy, fascinating and rewarding missive about this great comic actor (and humanitarian). Film noir has been foremost on Phil's mind of late, and he offers detailed appreciations for two of his all-time favorite actors: Sterling Hayden (in the process analyzing the revered Nicholas Ray-directed and Joan Crawford-starring western Johnny Guitar and the classic John Huston crime procedural The Asphalt Jungle) and Veronica Lake (with particular attention paid to the Raymond Chandler original The Blue Dahlia). Finally, it's no secret that Dean loves action, and he offers a full report on the just-released action film The Furious.

From original posting: "The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" welcome back special guest and "Saturday Night Jive" podcaster George who has devised a special game just for them. He's been eager for weeks to talk about the strange experience that is "The Book of Henry" and has come up with a game to best illustrate the even more strange paths the movie takes. The guys round out the episode with another round of their pun-heavy game So Shalit Be and mourn the loss of Harry Dean Stanton in a typically insufficient way. Available on iTunes Episode 189 includes: -Our long national nightmare is over: J.J. Abrams is returning to direct "Star Wars: Episode 9." -Nate finds Darren Aronfosky's "mother!" to be an interesting allegory, but knows it will be hated. -George cites two 2017 movies that stuck with him, "The Circle" for all the wrong reasons and "Wakefield" for all the right reasons. -This Week's Game I -- And Then...? -George describes sections of the plot of "The Book of Henry" and asks Ben and Nate to predict what will happen next. they are often wrong as this movie reveals itself to be absurdly wrong-headed. -This Week's Game II -- So Shalit Be! -The guys take their turns coming up with Gene Shalit-worthy blurbs for the likes of "Room," "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World," "Hackers," and more."

Jahrhunderts, fragen uns mit einem großen Filmemacher, ob Jesus jemals in Versuchung geraten ist, reisen ins ländliche, zutiefst katholische Irland der 80er Jahre, bevor wir uns mit drei Brüdern nach Indien aufmachen und abschließend noch eine höchst umstrittene Glaubensgemeinschaft ansprechen.

The on-the-spot pitching of what could have been 2019's "Hellboy" is genuinely awesome and surprising.  "The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" are trying a new hybrid game/pitch this week in honor of the astounding "Hellboy" reboot, so the guys will pitch a new version of a Hellboy movie using random plot elements decided by dice rolls every so often. It's amazing that it's not only cohesive, and awesome, but easily better than the film in theaters.  Available on iTunes and Spotify Episode 235 includes: -Star Wars is back with a TV show, a new trailer for Episode IX, a new title, and more... of the old. -"Missing Link" is the least Laika film yet but still charming. -Nate declares "Dragged Across Concrete" is one of the best films of 2019. -Ben is flabbergasted by the "Hellboy" reboot. -This Week's Pitch -- Switch the Pitch (Hellboy)! -The guys roll a dice to select new plot additions (New Character/Flashback/Plot Twist/Action Scene/Death Scene/Sex Scene) and pitch, on the spot, a new "Hellboy" and it is awesome. This lasts a half hour! -This Week's Game -- So Shalit Be! -The guys conclude with another rousing edition of impersonating film critic/social deviant Gene Shalit and coming up with increasingly absurd blurbs for films."

Show SummaryOn today's episode, I'm having a conversation with Frederick Marx, an internationally acclaimed Oscar and Emmy nominated filmmaker with over 40 years in the film industry. We have a conversation about a recent project, a series of five films called Veterans Journey Home, which features the stories of veterans who are working to transition to post-military life and the insights of professionals that support themAbout Today's GuestFrederick Marx is an internationally acclaimed, Oscar and Emmy nominated director/writer with 40 years in the film business. He was named a Chicago Tribune Artist of the Year, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a recipient of a Robert F. Kennedy Special Achievement Award. His film HOOP DREAMS played in hundreds of theatres nationwide after winning the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival and was the first documentary ever chosen to close the New York Film Festival. It was on over 100 “Ten Best” lists nationwide and was named Best Film of the Year by critics Roger Ebert, Gene Siskel, Gene Shalit, and Ken Turran and by the Chicago Film Critics Association. Ebert also named it Best Film of the Decade. It is one of the highest grossing non-musical documentaries in United States history. It has won numerous prestigious awards, including an Academy Nomination (Best Editing), Producer's Guild, Editor's Guild (ACE), Peabody Awards, the Prix Italia (Europe's top documentary prize) and The National Society of Film Critics Award. The New York, Boston, LA, and San Francisco Film Critics all chose it as Best Documentary, 1994. Utne Reader named it one of 150 of humanity's “essential works,” and the Library of Congress recently added it to its prestigious National Film Registry, and the International Documentary Association named it “The Best Documentary of All Time.” HOOP DREAMS (1994) is the film that first interested Marx in the welfare of teenage boys. BOYS TO MEN? (2004) distributed by Media Education Foundation takes that as its central theme. RITES OF PASSAGE: MENTORING THE FUTURE is the culmination, offering solutions. In 1993, Marx received an Emmy nomination for HIGHER GOALS (1992) for Best Daytime Children's Special. Producer, Director, and Writer for this national PBS Special, Marx directed Tim Meadows of “Saturday Night Live” fame. Accompanied by a curriculum guide, the program was later distributed for free to over 4,200 inner city schools nationwide. THE UNSPOKEN (1999), Marx's first feature film, features stellar performances from Russian star Sergei Shnirev of the famed Moscow Art Theatre, and Harry Lennix, most known for GET ON THE BUS, BOB ROBERTS, TITUS, ER, and MATRIX. A hobbyist songwriter, in 1991 Marx recorded a number of his songs collectively known as ROLLING STEEL. Two of those 11 songs are used over THE UNSPOKEN tail credits and one is used in BOYS TO MEN?. THE UNSPOKEN and ROLLING STEEL are available through this website. Having worked for a time as an English and creative writing teacher, Marx began his movie career as a film critic, and has worked both as a film distributor and exhibitor. He has also traveled extensively. He's lived in Germany, China, and Hungary. He's traveled repeatedly through Western and Eastern Europe, North Africa and Himalayan India. With a B.A. in Political Science and an MFA in filmmaking, Marx has coupled his formal education with a natural gift for languages, speaking German and some Mandarin-Chinese. His interest in languages and foreign cultures is reflected in PBS' international human rights program OUT OF THE SILENCE (1991), the widely acclaimed personal essay DREAMS FROM CHINA (1989), and Learning Channel's SAVING THE SPHINX (1997). He consulted on Iranian-Kurdish director Bahman Ghobadi's feature TURTLES CAN FLY (2004) and was a teacher of renowned Thai feature filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Three of Marx's films premiered at the New York Film Festival. His films are distributed throughout the web, on Amazon, and elsewhere. Having dedicated his life to the making and promotion of independent films, Marx, a true maverick in the increasingly commercialized world of “independent cinema,” continues to provide a voice of artistic and social integrity. He repeatedly returns to work with disadvantaged and misunderstood communities: people of color, abused children, the working poor, welfare recipients, prisoners, the elderly, and “at risk” youth. He brings a passion for appreciating multiculturalism and an urgent empathy for the sufferings of the disadvantaged to every subject he tackles. As his mission statement indicates (“Bearing witness, creating change”), his is a voice strong and clear, and profoundly human. Links Mentioned In This EpisodeVeterans Journey Home WebsiteWarrior Films Resources PagePsychArmor Resource of the WeekThis week's PsychArmor resource of the week is the PsychArmor course Seeking Support. Transitioning from military service can evoke strong emotions.

Erik speaks with Academy Award Nominee, film editor, producer, director, and writer, Frederick Marx about his focus on providing a voice for disadvantaged and misunderstood communities, through his production company Warrior Films, which highlights unique stories of greatness! IT'S YOUR WONDERFUL LIFE! Two-minute project teaser: https://warriorfilms.org/its-your-wonderful-life/ More about Frederick: Frederick Marx has lived his life mission as a socially dedicated film artist for 45 years. He is an internationally acclaimed, Oscar and Emmy nominated producer/director. He was named a Chicago Tribune Artist of the Year, a Guggenheim Fellow, and a recipient of a Robert F. Kennedy Special Achievement Award. His film HOOP DREAMS played in hundreds of theatres nationwide after winning the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival and was the first documentary ever chosen to close the New York Film Festival. It was on over 100 “Ten Best” lists nationwide and was named Best Film of the Year by critics Roger Ebert, Gene Siskel, Gene Shalit, and Ken Turran and by the Chicago Film Critics Association. Ebert also named it Best Film of the Decade. Prestigious awards include: Academy Nomination (Best Editing), Producer's Guild, Editor's Guild (ACE), Peabody Awards, the Prix Italia (Europe's top documentary prize) and The National Society of Film Critics Award. Utne Reader named it one of 150 of humanity's “essential works,” the Library of Congress recently added it to its prestigious National Film Registry, and the International Documentary Association named it the Best Documentary Ever. HOOP DREAMS ignited Marx's lifelong passion for the well-being of youth. That led to BOYS TO MEN? (2002) – a snapshot of the dire state of teen boys in the U.S. today. BOYS TO MEN? chronicles one year in the lives of three fifteen year old boys as they struggle to define themselves meaningfully as men. Soon Marx will make his final film on youth – RITES OF PASSAGE: MENTORING THE FUTURE. This documentary is about solutions. It will demonstrate why it's necessary to initiate and mentor all the world's youth. It will show audiences how it can be done, provide them with the tools to do it, and inspire them to take up the challenge. VETERANS JOURNEY HOME, a five part series of films, tells the story of the 2.7 million returning US veterans and what it takes for them to successfully transition back into civilian life. Whether officially diagnosed with PTSD or not, most vets carry the psychic scars of “moral injury” and will carry the battle within long after the bullets stop flying. Marx's films show them healing and transforming. In 1993, Marx received an Emmy nomination for HIGHER GOALS (1992) for Best Daytime Children's Special. Producer, Director, and Writer for this national PBS Special, Marx directed Tim Meadows of “Saturday Night Live” fame. Accompanied by a curriculum guide, the program was later distributed for free to over 4,200 inner city schools nationwide. His most recent film JOURNEY FROM ZANSKAR (2010) - featuring the Dalai Lama, with narration by Richard Gere - is now in worldwide release. THE UNSPOKEN (1999), Marx's first feature film, features stellar performances from star Sergei Shnirev of the famed Moscow Art Theatre (Russian voice of Disney's ALADDIN), and Harry J. Lennix, most known for MATRIX, Spike Lee's GET ON THE BUS, Tim Robbins' BOB ROBERTS, and Julie Taymor's TITUS. A hobbyist songwriter, Marx recorded a number of his songs collectively known as ROLLING STEEL (1991). Marx's vision for cross-cultural understanding is reflected in PBS' international human rights program OUT OF THE SILENCE (1991), the widely acclaimed personal essay DREAMS FROM CHINA (1989), and Learning Channel's SAVING THE SPHINX (1997). He consulted on Iranian-Kurdish director Bahman Ghobadi's feature TURTLES CAN FLY (2004) and was a teacher of renowned Thai feature filmmaker Apichatpong Weerasethakul.

For Evan Valenti, working at Steven Valenti's Menswear was at first a way to earn some extra money while following his dream of being a radio broadcaster. But, it wasn't long until he discovered he had a great knack and, ultimately, a love for the all things menswear. However, this isn't simply a case of following in his Father's footsteps. Instead, Evan has brought a new angle to this legendary downtown business taking calculated risks on new trends, adapting to an ever-changing marketplace, and getting through to the other side of the monumental challenges presented by the pandemic. We cover a lot of ground quickly in this episode, including Evan's decision to choose menswear as a career, his working relationship with his father Steven and a mutual respect that strengthens the business, surviving the pandemic restrictions and making it through to the other side, dress pants that feel like comfy sweatpants (I can vouch for how amazing they are), how the Amazonification of the world has actually strengthened Valenti's niche in the marketplace, bike lanes, Evan's work in radio, his brother Michael J. Valenti's work with Sherman Baldwin on a remarkable time in Berkshire County radio, a great Gene Shalit anecdote when he appeared on the show, techniques of interviewing guests, what Star Wars trilogy to introduce first to kids, the entrepreneurial spirit of the Valenti family, including his mother Carolyn, and more. I hope you'll enjoy my conversation with Evan Valenti! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/john-krol/support

PSYCHO III (1986) Donna and Andrew – joined by film-historian and guest co-host Ray Morton – check into the Bates Motel to learn why so few of its guests ever actually check out (probably because of all the murder). Topics discussed: Norman Bates; codependent maternal relationships; traumatized nuns; way-too-old aspiring rock stars; the existence of God; hot dates at retirement homes; tactless journalists; payphones; Bolognese smoothies; Snack-rophilia; microfiche machines; studio-mandated reshoots; Gene Shalit.

As we put the nail in the coffin of 2020 and step into a new coffin a.k.a. 2021, we're celebrating two New Years cult classics: the 1980 ball dropper slasher "New Year's Evil" featuring an unhinged white dude embarking on a festive killing spree through Van Nuys, and the Gen-X 80s nostalgia fest "200 Cigarettes" starring a cast so stacked it can only be described as "The Thin Red Line" of broad studio comedies (Ben Affleck, Casey Affleck, Kate Hudson, Paul Rudd, Courtney Love, Christina Ricci, and Dave Chappelle just to name a few of the stand-outs in the ensemble). We're once again joined by film professor Macy Todd to discuss campy New Yawk accents, bad screenwriting, and the legendary Gene Shalit, who is still alive! "New Year's Evil" is streaming on Amazon Prime and "200 Cigarettes" is streaming nowhere because the music royalties ran out, so you might have to get a little creative if you wanna see Kate Hudson covered in shit for 90 minutes.

What ho! Has a Charles Dickens references crept over into the Balcony? Are the boys becoming hardcore Dickheads or did they just watch a steaming pile of Christmas pudding this week from 1986 called the Best of Times. The Best of Times it certainly wasn't! Gene Shalit! It stinks! Jay Sherman! We end Russellmania season on the worst of notes because instead of this we could have watched Used Cars, The Thing, Overboard, Captain Ron, Escape from New York, Escape from LA, Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Once Upon A Time in Hollywood, The Hateful 8, Furious 7, F8te of the Furious, 3000 Miles to Graceland, Soldier, Executive Decision, Stargate, Tombstone, Backdraft, Tango & Cash, or The Thing again. Instead, we watched the Best of Times cause we're idiots. Fare thee well, Springfield Massachusetts's favorite son! We'll see you on the other side of the bells

This time they're joined by comedian, actor, producer, author and good friend, DC Pierson (Stay for Dinner, Captain America: The Winter Soldier), who discusses his history with and rediscovery of the tracks off of this iconic blue CD.

All that plus songs tailor-made for Chino of the Deftones, Gene Shalit lateral segues... and is the "King of the Horseflies" actually Trent Reznor?
