Cassidy's Ugly Exit | Mamdani's Slate Sweeps | $2 Billion for a Video Game? | 6/25/26

Trump and Senate GOP, NATO's Mark Rutte, Zohran Mamdani's primary sweep, and Grand Theft Auto 6 headline today's A.M. Update. Outgoing Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy reportedly gets into a shouting match with Trump at a Senate GOP lunch just weeks after losing his primary by a historic margin, and Aaron says picking that fight on his way out the door makes no sense. Trump also announces he won't sign the bipartisan housing bill until the Senate passes the SAVE America Act, even though it already cleared Congress with supermajorities, and takes a swipe at NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte over gas prices not falling fast enough at the pump. All three of Zohran Mamdani's endorsed candidates sweep their New York primaries, including a Democratic Socialist who knocked off a five-term incumbent, and Aaron lays out his theory for why the combination of Islamism and Marxism is proving so potent with young, secular voters. Grand Theft Auto 6 opens pre-orders for its November launch, and Aaron does the math on its reported $2 billion budget, more than it cost to build the Burj Khalifa, and questions whether that much talent and money going into a video game says something about misplaced priorities. Aaron closes the week with the poll of the week results on who's actually following the World Cup.

Hour 4 features Ira Winderman joining the show to break down the Heat's aggressive win-now approach after trading for Giannis, including the selection of Ryan Conwell, the fit of Bobby Portis, and whether Miami has enough around Giannis and Bam Adebayo. Ira also discusses potential roster moves such as trading Nikola Jovic, possibly losing Norman Powell, and the likelihood of adding Khris Middleton, while evaluating Miami's place in the Eastern Conference and the possibility of pursuing stars like Ja Morant or even LeBron James. The hour also touches on the reported LaMelo Ball trade to Minnesota, what the Heat can do to fill out the roster, plus Marlins talk, a revisit of the 9-9-9 challenge, World Cup discussion, Dan Day's trivia skills compared to Alex Trebek, and excitement around Grand Theft Auto 6 being set in Miami.

The hour then turns to Dolphins talk with Omar Kelly, who breaks down the team's young players who need to take a step forward this season, highlighting Patrick Paul's Year 2 leap as the blueprint for growth across the roster. Omar points to Malik Washington, Chop Robinson, and Jonah Savanna as key contributors, labels Chop a potential X-factor with Micah Parsons-like traits, and emphasizes concerns in the cornerback room, while stressing that Miami's ceiling and floor will be determined by how many young players develop this year.

One of the big news stories of this week is that a pre-order date for Grand Theft Auto 6 has been announced - just in case you were skeptical about this game being one of the biggest launches of anything ever. Speaking of launches, Xbox has launched another new round of studio closures which obviously sucks!

Keir Starmer could be gone within days. That's the verdict of Sun columnist David Wooding, who reveals Westminster is awash with leadership chatter — including claims that Ed Miliband has already been offered the Chancellorship by a rival contender. With Cabinet ministers refusing the Prime Minister's calls and resignations potentially imminent, the clock may finally be ticking on Starmer's tenure.Then, as England's World Cup campaign kicks off, Oxfordshire County Council is seeking a legal injunction — backed by taxpayer money — to ban Union flags and England flags from lampposts. Philip Kiszeley of the New Culture Forum joins Julia to expose the jaw-dropping double standards of a political class that celebrates Pride and Palestinian flags whilst treating patriotism as a hate crime.Plus: the BBC's £500 million cuts, a Question Time migrant plant scandal, and civil servants being paid to play Grand Theft Auto and role-play as earthworms in the name of public policy.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM.

In what can only be described as a robust conversation, this week's show has it all! The Blind Guys begin by talking about the weather and then we move smoothly into Jan telling us about this year's Sight Village, from which he has just returned. The conversation then meanders along the road as the guys talk about the new Focus 46 and also the introduction of JAWS Kiosk as it rolls into Europe; it seems that there are some bumps along the way for this new accessibility feature at airports and other locations. The show tour bus then appears to take a sharp right and heads straight for a wall so thick, not even the US military could break through it. However, the Blind Guys, 2 in particular, manage to drive headfirst through this wall as if it is a knife cutting through butter! On the calmer side of the street, Clodagh has an email from Bence, who has a question about accessible coffee makers and Microwaves etcetera. So, we suggest you buckle up multiple times, if you can, and settle in for what we describe as the Grand Theft Auto of a nice sedate Sunday drive in the countryside: Blind Guys Chat - 8 out of 10 spineless, weak-minded wet towels prefer it to a men's smelly locker room!

In today's Daily Fix:XBOX's rebooted Fable has suffered another delay, this time to February 2027. The reason given is the already packed second half of the year for games, but let's be real: Fable was scheduled to launch in the Fall, around the same window as Grand Theft Auto 6. The delay will give Fable some breathing room several months after Rockstar's behemoth drops. In related news, XBOX CEO Asha Sharma warned of more difficult choices ahead, but pointed to the lowering of the Game Pass price as a positive step. And finally, 007: First Light has become IO Interactive's fastest-selling game, moving a million and a half copies in its first day.

We've got a bit of a musical legend in the house today for the guestmix! Here's some words from the man himself Lately I've been getting back into playing a lot more vinyl-only sets after spending the last few years deep in film scoring and studio work. I will be getting back out playing more shows this year, so this mix felt like a good snapshot of where my head is at musically right now. I've also been putting a lot of energy into my label PRONTO, which has become a home for music from artists and friends like Marcellus Pittman, Osunlade, Rick Wade, Art Of Tones, Oliver Dollar and Make A Dance. I'm currently working on a new project with Osunlade called Nomadics that I'm really excited about. Outside the club world, I've had music in the new Jackass film and the latest Farrelly Brothers movie, plus I recently finished scoring a new feature starring Ron Perlman and Theo Rossi. Before all of that I spent years making music for Grand Theft Auto which was honestly one of the wildest chapters of my career. This mix is just a bunch of records I love, Chicago roots, deep house, disco, weird late-night stuff and a few curveballs. I also recently got to remix Joe Smooth's “Promised Land” for DJ International, which was a pretty surreal full-circle moment for a kid originally from Chicago. Hope you enjoy it. James @jamescurd

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Kate Lynch, Ryan Weaver, and special guest Jay Brandstetter from the internet history podcast I'm From the Internet. We bring you the thrilling conclusion of our look at Jack Thompson's personal war against Rockstar and Take-Two and, subsequently, his legal career. This time, the publishers of Grand Theft Auto, Manhunt, and Bully take the fight to Jack, preemptively suing him to keep him from blocking the release of Manhunt 2 and Grand Theft Auto IV. We also cover Jack's disbarment and reflect on his legacy as a crusader against violent video games. Topics discussed include: a Steven Seagal interlude, Thompson goes down fighting, some people don't care for naughty words, and the panic over video games passes Jack by, and how a bad lawyer helped secure video games as a creative medium. For more on SpyHunter: Nowhere to Run, a video game tie-in to a Spy Hunter movie that never got made starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpyHunter:_Nowhere_to_Run.Read Jack's countersuit to Rockstar/Take-Two here: Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. v.

Leading the news, Subnautica 2 has launched into Early Access today on PC and Xbox Series X|S. Developed by Unknown Worlds Entertainment, the title includes four-player cooperative mechanics and an updated Unreal Engine 5 foundation. The release follows a protracted development period marked by internal leadership disputes and legal conflict involving its publisher. In corporate developments, Capcom has reported record annual performance for the fiscal year ending March 2026, with 59 million total units sold. The results were driven heavily by Resident Evil Requiem, pushing the franchise past 200 million lifetime sales. Separately, retail data suggests pre-orders for Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto 6 are imminent, prompting industry speculation ahead of Take-Two Interactive's quarterly earnings call. Further updates include Nintendo's decision to bring forward the theatrical release of the live-action Legend of Zelda film to April 2027, alongside the expansion of the Nintendo Switch Online service to include five additional Virtual Boy titles.

As part of Howard's deal with Corman, the success of EMD put the boy who once played Opie Taylor in TV's The Andy Griffith's Show in charge of first and second units, stunt coordinators, helicopters, and his kin/fellow actors brother Clint Howard and father Rance Howard—all this on the day after Ron's 23rd birthday.  GTA's plot follows young elopers played by Howard and Nacy Morgan (who might be best known as John Ritter's first wife), who've stolen Morgan's father's Rolls-Royce to avoid the pressure of her pseudo-arranged marriage to a rich dweeb. This theft leads Morgan's father, a prominent citizen about to run for major office, to have his security detail retrieve his car (and daughter). Morgan's jilted dweeb upon learning he's not to be betrothed assumes she's been kidnapped and calls a local radio station to put a bounty on her safe return before stealing a car to give chase himself, causing his wealthy mother to call the same station to offer a separate bounty for her son's safe return. From there, cars go crash, clang, boom, and pow.   Start peeling off your lead paint and start snacking on its sweet goodness to revel in this 70's film concept of comedy during what the hosts generally agree is a second-screener.   This ep, Ryan turns his head cold to his advantage as a radio announcer; Jack reveals this and Solo (2018) are the only Howard movies he's seen prior; and Thomas and Ken recommend (re)listening to the Any Which Way You Can episode and dunk hard on regular Howard collaborating producer Brian Grazer's hair.  CORRECTION: Jonathan Demme's film for Roger Corman wasn't Handle with Care (nor was it Woody Allen's Radio Days) but Caged Heat (followed by Crazy Momma) when Demme was giving Howard some Corman-related advice.   THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

The Rizzuto Show

The internet fired the first shot this week when a viral post claimed it's “unattractive” for grown men to play video games. Naturally, The Rizzuto Show treated this like a matter of national importance. Is gaming just another hobby like golf, fishing, or watching football all Sunday… or is there genuinely something suspicious about a fully grown adult with six monitors and a glowing gaming throne screaming into a headset at 2AM?The gang breaks down the entire debate, including whether hobbies should define attractiveness, why fish pictures on dating profiles are apparently controversial now, and whether GTA VI is about to destroy productivity across America. Rizz admits he's probably diving back into gaming when the new Grand Theft Auto drops, while Rafe unpacks childhood trauma from being forced to watch his dad dominate Sega Genesis speed runs. Honestly, therapy probably would've been cheaper.Then things take a hard left turn into celebrity chaos during Crap on Celebrities. Ted Turner's death sparks a conversation about one of the wildest résumés in media history — from founding CNN and TBS to owning wrestling companies, sports teams, bison herds, and apparently preparing an actual apocalypse broadcast tape for the end of the world. Because nothing says “media visionary” quite like having a backup hymn ready for nuclear annihilation.Elsewhere in this comedy podcast, Robert Downey Jr. takes shots at influencer culture, Matthew Lillard continues his unbelievable redemption arc after Quentin Tarantino accidentally rebooted his career by insulting him, and Hayden Panettiere's memoir rollout gets the full skeptical Rizz Show treatment. Plus: Moon reviews the new Lord of the Flies adaptation, the guys debate whether Sting is secretly becoming a billionaire cartoon villain by refusing to leave his kids inheritance money, and Zach Bryan somehow trends after yelling a sketch-comedy quote at a fan.There's also talk about Superman sequels, Hocus Pocus 3, The Bear ending after season five, weird Mother's Day songs, Mr. Beast's unsettling eye situation, and one of the most chaotic porno birthday segments in recent memory. So basically: a totally normal episode of your favorite daily podcast.If you love a daily podcast packed with sarcastic humor, weird news, entertainment gossip, celebrity fails, and the kind of conversations that make you question how this show stays on the air, you're in the right place.

Professor Game Podcast | Rob Alvarez Bucholska chats with gamification gurus, experts and practitioners about education

Grab our Core Drives in the Wild guide for free professorgame.com/WildCD What if the secret to solving real-world isolation or preventing misconduct wasn't more rules, but better play? Sharon Wood, a veteran gaming executive who helped launch the original Grand Theft Auto, joins us to discuss her shift from commercial hits to "Serious Games" with a scientific edge. We explore the neurological reality that the brain cannot distinguish between real and virtual experiences, making games a potent tool for building empathy and confidence. From memory care apps that reunite families to clinical trials in schools, this episode moves past the "points and badges" surface of gamification to show how progressive mastery actually changes lives. Sharon Wood is a seasoned gaming executive with over four decades of experience spanning sports marketing, entertainment, media, and video game development. Her career began in the fast-paced world of sports and entertainment marketing before she entered the gaming industry in 1996 during PlayStation's early days, where she orchestrated groundbreaking partnerships between major brands like Pepsi and Frito-Lay and video games. Most notably, Sharon launched the original Grand Theft Auto on a modest marketing budget. While defending the controversial title in the media, she consulted with psychologists and discovered something surprising: games could actually provide safe environments for exploring moral concepts rather than encouraging negative behaviors. This revelation changed everything. Inspired by gaming's positive potential, Sharon collaborated with a psychologist around 2012-2013 to create "Luminous," a game designed to help women and girls build self-confidence. Within months of launch, it became a top-five app in 34 countries. This success led Sharon to found Happy People Games (HPG), a company dedicated to creating "serious games": interactive experiences that merge scientific evidence with engaging gameplay to deliver real-world benefits beyond entertainment. Unlike simple gamification with badges and points, HPG builds games that create progressive mastery experiences, harnessing the natural reward response from achievement and channeling it toward positive outcomes. Rob Alvarez is Head of Engagement Strategy, Europe at The Octalysis Group (TOG), a leading gamification and behavioral design consultancy. A globally recognized gamification strategist and TEDx speaker, he founded and hosts Professor Game, the #1 gamification podcast, and has interviewed hundreds of global experts. He designs evidence-based engagement systems that drive motivation, loyalty, and results, and teaches LEGO® SERIOUS PLAY® and gamification at top institutions including IE Business School, EFMD, and EBS University across Europe, the Americas, and Asia.   Guest Links and Info Websites: happypeoplegames.com thenewforevers.com Instagram: @thenewforevers   Links to episode mentions: Proposed guest: Christian Svensson Favorite game: Tekken   Lets's do stuff together!
