In this episode, we're strapping on the tinfoil hats for another deep dive into the world of conspiracy theories. Is Garth Brooks secretly a serial killer? What actually happened to that lady on the plane? And is there really a secret tunnel system lurking beneath the Denver Airport? Listen as we separate truth from internet chaos in our quest to figure out what's real, what's ridiculous, and what's just algorithm-fueled delusion. Plus, we revisit the conspiracies we once believed to see if they still hold up after all these years.Relevant links: Our full show notes are at knoxandjamie.com/649Come listen to our new podcast Shelf Respect (now available wherever you listen to our other podcasts).

Welcome back to Netflix vs. Cinema, the podcast where we settle the ultimate debate: Big Stream or Big Screen?
This week we're discussing Linda McGee's new Netflix show, How to Get to Heave from Belfast!
You can never be sure where you're going to find your new favorite show...On this episode we go behind the scenes on the show that you haven't discovered yet, but ultimately won't stop talking about it for the rest of the year. Let's figure out 'How To Get To Heaven From Belfast'.From the team behind 'Derry Girls' (not Bad Girls as I mistakenly referred to it) this show is the story of Three lifelong friends reunite after the death of an old classmate turns a wake into a dark mystery. They embark on a thrilling adventure across Ireland, piecing together enigmatic truths amid complicated lives.This show is such a rare and unique blend of different genres that we had to ask how it all came together to work as well as it did. We had the pleasure of sitting down with cinematographer Nathalie Pitters and editor Nigel Williams to see how it all came together as all these artisans are seemingly working in their own bubbles to create this joyous piece of entertainment. We talk about styles, creative process and so very much more....

Firstly, Lisa McGee, the creator of Derry Girls is back with a brand new twisty comedic thriller in Netflix's surprising series, How to Get to Heaven of Belfast. Next, also set in Ireland, the foursome watch the gentle drama, The Walsh series.

Next, ITV has a new true story four-parter for Sunday nights. The Lady, about the mystery surrounding The Dutchess of York's dresser. The series is elevated by strong lead performance from Mia Mckenna Bruce who was last seen elevating Netflix's Agatha Christie adaptation, The Seven Dials. Lastly, Dawn struggles to get through Channel 4's docudrama, Dirty Buisness which takes a dramatic look at water companies polluting Britain's waterways.

Editor - Nigel Williams How to Get to Heaven From Belfast editor Nigel Williams once again finds himself cutting with showrunner Lisa McGee. Having first worked with McGee on her hit series, Derry Girls, the two are back together for a show that features Lisa's well-known witty dialogue and quirky characters, but this time all wrapped up in a mystery. How to Get to Heaven From Belfast is an eight-part series that follows three longtime friends. Now in their late 30s, but still as close as ever, the girls are about to embark on the most thrilling adventure of their lives. When an email arrives, telling them about the death of the estranged fourth member of their childhood gang, a series of eerie events at her wake set them on a dark, dangerous and hilarious odyssey through Ireland and beyond. Together they try to piece together the truth of the past. It's a show about friendship, memory and what happens when life doesn't turn out quite like you'd expected. NIGEL WILLIAMS Nigel Williams is one of the most highly sought-after editors in comedy. He hit gold in 2000 when two strangers were looking to cut a pilot. Those strangers were Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. Together they made one of the biggest comedies of all time, The Office. Nigel then went on to edit some of the most successful comedies on TV, including Extras, Outnumbered, Motherland, Horrible Histories and Tracey Ullman's Show. Nigel also edited 5 seasons of Episodes, starring Matt Leblanc, in Los Angeles, working with Jeffrey Klarik and David Crane (creator of Friends). Williams was thrilled that his recent work on hit show Derry Girls was recognized with a coveted BFE award for Best Editor. He has also co-founded Wrap Party Agency, and is committed to promoting more diversity and inclusion within post-production.

Analizamos comenta sin spoilers How to Get to Heaven from Belfast, la nueva serie de Netflix creada por Lisa McGee, responsable de Derry Girls. En este episodio de Razones para Ver Express analizamos qué propone esta mezcla de comedia negra y misterio, cómo evoluciona el universo creativo de McGee hacia un terreno más adulto y qué aporta esta historia sobre la amistad, la culpa y los secretos que nunca terminan de enterrarse. A lo largo del programa hablamos del tono, las interpretaciones y el equilibrio entre humor e intriga, comparándola con otras series recientes como Bad Sisters o incluso con la propia Derry Girls. Sin destripar la trama, reflexionamos sobre si el misterio funciona, si sus personajes conectan de verdad y, sobre todo, si merece la pena darle al play. Porque más allá del enigma, esta es una serie que habla de cómo el pasado nos persigue… y de lo complicado que es crecer sin mirar atrás.

Mit "How to get to Heaven from Belfast" (4:03) bei Netflix bringt Lisa McKee ihren Nachfolger zu "Derry Girls" und Holger und Rüdiger könnten nicht gespannter sein. Die Protagonistinnen sind dieses Mal allerdings keine katholischen Schülerinnen sondern drei erwachsene Frauen, die sich von Belfast auf nach Irland machen, um eine entfremdete Schulfreundin zu betrauern und dabei in ein wildes Abenteuer mit Affären, weiblichen Killerkommandos und verdrängten Jugendgeheimissen geraten. Keine Frage: eine wilde, irrwitzige, durchgeknallte Geschichte, die allerdings von der zweiten Serie der Folge noch übertroffen wird. In der Arte Mediathek läuft die isländisch-französische Miniserie "The Danish Woman" (27:26) mit Trine Dyrholm, die u.a. den besten Vorspann des Jahres, die wildeste Nacktszene des Jahres und eine Art Mutter Beimer mit GSG-9-Ausbildung beinhaltet. Und schließlich checken wir erneut in die Notaufnahme von "The Pitt" (45:00) ein und freuen uns nicht nur darüber, dass wir die bisher beste Folge der Staffel zu sehen bekommen haben sondern auch darüber, dass Noah Wyle sie inszeniert hat und dementsprechend in den Interview-Ausschnitten interessante Hintergrundinformationen geben kann. Cold-Open-Frage: "Was sagen wir zum Superbowl-Spot von ,The Mandalorian & Grogu'?"

A question on the mind of many is how good they must be to get to heaven. Many people have the idea that if they do enough good things, or their good things outweigh their bad things, then they will be saved eternally. One error in this thinking is the failure to understand the absolute standard of God's goodness. He is perfectly good and therefore cannot tolerate any imperfection in His presence. Another mistake people make is thinking that their behavior is good enough to get to heaven. But they fail to understand that if they resort to performance such as keeping the law, they must have a perfect record or they fall under the curse of failure. It is also a mistake to think that behavior alone can be good enough to get into heaven. Our problem is not sins, per se, but sinfulness. We are sinners who need to have the root of the problem taken care of, and it is sin. The good news is that God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, to live the perfect life we could not live, and to pay the penalty of our sins, which we could not pay. So we conclude that we can get to heaven based on what Jesus did, not on what we do. Charlie challenges all who see this episode to trust in Christ's righteousness alone in order to get to heaven. That's a message worth hearing and sharing. We trust you will share this, like it, and leave a comment, especially if you place your faith in Jesus as your Savior. #FreeGracegospel#Savedbygrace#Howtogetto heaven#faithnotworks$simplybygrace

We linger on a moment back in June 1999, when Jim was still pastor and called on the church to remember that AIDS wasn't over. Because—advances notwithstanding—it still isn't over.

In 1996 everything changed. With the introduction of antiretroviral medications called the “AIDS cocktail,” people started getting better – some dramatically – and surviving AIDS became a real possibility. In the wake of these changes, MCC found itself taking stock of what they lost to AIDS and using what they learned to address larger social issues– from medical marijuana to homelessness. Sometimes these political stances felt heroic and a way to use that collective energy, and other times it made the church very unpopular with the changing Castro neighborhood. “Freedom is Coming” is by Anders Nyberg. “All Things New” is by Rory Cooney. “Blessed Assurance” is by Franny Crosby. “Gloria (Angels We Have Heard on High” is a traditional Christmas hymn. “The Potter's House” is by V.

In 1995 Rev. Jim Mitulski became HIV positive -- what's known as seroconversion. It was 14 years into the epidemic and people knew what HIV/AIDS was, how you got it, and how you could prevent it. And when Jim got sick, he got very sick. What was it like to become ill so publicly? How would the church and the community respond? And what could Jim possibly preach about on his first Sunday back? “My Soul Doth Magnify” is from Camille Saint-Saens' Christmas Oratorio, Op. 12, 1858. “The 23rd Psalm (Dedicated to My Mother)” is by Bobby McFerrin.

In 1993, more than 10 years into the AIDS epidemic, the Metropolitan Community Church of San Francisco (MCC-SF) tries to remember all they've lost. We think about remembering too after encountering an archive of 1,200 cassette recordings of this queer church's services during the height of the epidemic. Whether you're a regular church goer or would never step into one, we invite you to spend time with this LGBTQ+ San Francisco church as it struggles to reconcile sexuality and faith in the midst of an existential crisis. For images and links about this episode visit https://www.heavenpodcast.org/episode-1.About the montage: The worship service in this episode was on February 28, 1993. The Dyke March proclamation was written and read by Rev. Lea Brown. Rev. Karen Foster read the statement that sexual orientation does not need to be changed. Jim Mitulski recalled his hospital visit with the man who recognized him by his shape. Paul Francis told strangers at a restaurant to get ugly lovers and Eric Rofes told his mother that he was going to stay safe and keep having sex. Cleve Jones had the vision of a thousand rotting corpses, Rev. Ron Russell Coons preached that we have AIDS as a community, and Rev. Troy Perry proclaimed a revival on Eureka Street. The other people heard in the episode are either unknown or did not want to be named. When We All Get to Heaven is produced by Eureka Street Productions.
