Podcast appearances and mentions of Greg Kinnear

On this episode, we chat with Margo's Got Money Troubles star Michael Angarano! Michael plays the show's "villain" Mark, who's Margo's baby daddy. We talked in depth with Michael about the character, how he approaches him, and how he isn't actually a villain. We spoke about Mark's empathetic approach to the character and his growth through the first season of the show. We also tapped into Mark's relationship with his mother in the series. Angrano also spoke about how his work as a director has sharpened his instincts as an actor. He's learned to use both and says he still loves that the emotional disconnect of performance is something no amount of technical knowledge can fully replace. Michael brings a strong performance in a show that I can promise you is worth your time. "Margo's Got Money Troubles" is a bold, heartwarming, and comedic family drama following recent college dropout and aspiring writer, Margo (Fanning), the daughter of an ex-Hooters waitress (Pfeiffer) and ex-pro wrestler (Offerman), as she's forced to make her way with a new baby, a mounting pile of bills, and a dwindling amount of ways to pay them. The series also stars Academy Award winner Marcia Gay Harden, Academy Award nominee and Emmy Award-winner Greg Kinnear, Michael Angarano, Rico Nasty and Lindsey Normington.  Michael Anthony Angarano is an American actor with a career spanning film and television since the mid-1990s. He's known for roles like Young William in Almost Famous and Will Stronghold in Sky High. He also played Nick Pearson in NBC's This Is Us, earning an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actor. Angarano's other credits include Music of the Heart, Cover Me, I'm Dying Up Here, Gentlemen Broncos, and Oppenheimer (2023).

Today Dandino gifts Griffey a movie that has aged like Old Cow Milk on a hot summer day, Someone Like You. They dig into the film's Old Cow Theorum of modern relationships, the insane decisions Ashley Judd must suffer from the scipt, and whether saddling up to a man like Hugh Jackman is bound to end in a Bronco Busting.

Margo's Got Money Troubles season finale review — we break down every book-to-show change across episodes 5–8 of Apple TV+'s adaptation of Rufi Thorpe's novel. In this episode of Fully Booked, we cover: • Nick Offerman's performance as Jinx and why the Emmys need to pay attention • Elle Fanning's version of Margo vs. the book's Margo • Michelle Pfeiffer as Shyanne — the show's biggest character improvement • The custody battle, that wild courtroom scene, and how it compares to the novel • Nicole Kidman's Lace — a character that doesn't exist in the book • Kenny's CPS betrayal and what it sets up for Season 2 • The JB Easter egg and what it means for fans of the novel This is Part 2 of our coverage. Watch Part 1 first if you haven't already!   The Performances That Carry This Adaptation Nick Offerman delivers what we're calling a career-best as Jinx; the methadone clinic scene alone is worth the price of admission, and his portrayal of addiction and relapse is devastating without ever feeling exploitative Elle Fanning brings a mix of naivety, intelligence, and tenacity to Margo that goes well beyond the page, making the character feel genuinely three-dimensional across all eight episodes Michelle Pfeiffer as Shyanne is a massive improvement over her book counterpart, bringing nuance and an arc of reluctant acceptance that the novel never offers   Book vs. Show — The Major Differences In Rufi Thorpe's novel, Shyanne (Cheyenne in the show's pronunciation) is the one who calls CPS on Margo; the series gives this betrayal to Kenny (Greg Kinnear), adding a new dimension and a Season 2 storyline Nicole Kidman's character Lace does not exist in the book at all; a male lawyer fills a similar role but with far less narrative weight Susie (Thaddea Graham) is a more significant presence in the show than in Rufi Thorpe's novel, giving Margo an emotional anchor outside her family The show tones down Shyanne considerably; in the book she essentially cuts Margo off over the OnlyFans reveal and does not show up for the custody fight   The Custody Battle and Courtroom Drama Mark (Michael Angarano) petitions for full custody despite not having primary custody of his other children, and the mediation scene highlights the age and power imbalance between him and 20-year-old Margo The judge scene is over the top (we acknowledge it) but serves the plot by showing Bodhi's attachment to Margo over Mark, and the ruling grants her full custody with Mark getting two weekends a month   OnlyFans, Identity, and Margo's Creative Side Margo's "Hungry Ghost" alien persona is one of the show's best inventions, blending comedy with her genuine creativity as a writer The hosts discuss whether Margo actually qualifies as a "sex worker" given that she doesn't engage in sex acts with anyone; the show leaves this ambiguity productively unresolved The doxing subplot differs between book and show; in the novel it's deliberately done by the high school friend, while the show opts for a less personal but still harmful exposure at a party   What Season 2 Needs to Address Kenny's CPS call and how it will affect his relationship with Shyanne and the wider family The "JB" Easter egg in the finale, teasing a character from Rufi Thorpe's book who becomes Margo's love interest The expansion of Margo's more explicit content and what that means for her trajectory Jinx's ongoing recovery and whether his relationship with Shyanne continues to develop   Subscribe on your favorite platform!SpotifyApple PodcastAmazon MusiciHeart RadioPodchaserYoutubeDon't forget to follow us on socials too!InstagramThreadsTikTokBlueSkyFacebook Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It's Apple TV+ this week on the podcast, as that's the last place on TV, or at least one of them, that's still taking big creative swings and also releasing episodes serially. Longtime contributor Omar Gallaga joins Neal Pollack this week to discuss two Apple+ shows. The first, Margot's Got Money Troubles, based on a novel by Rufi Thorpe, comes to us from David E. Kelley, who's been making TV for decades. But this show feels fresh and modern thanks to a winning lead performance from Elle Fanning and a nuanced look at the Only Fans universe. The cast, which includes Nick Offerman, Greg Kinnear, Nicole Kidman, and Marcia Gay Harden, is uniformly excellent, but Michelle Pfeiffer steals the show with a late-career master turn as Margot's mother, a performance so fully realized it doesn't even feel like she's acting.Much more stylized, but no less effective, is Widow's Bay, a new comedy-horror semi-anthology series from comedy writer Katie Dippold, which embraces and deconstructs horror tropes with unabashed delight. It's like the X-Files meets Northern Exposure, with a touch of Twin Peaks and Parks and Recreation. The cast includes Matthew Rhys, Kate O'Flynn, and Stephen Root, and a bevy of monsters and supernatural happenings that bedevils a cursed Massachusetts island. Four episodes in, and Widow's Bay is already a TV legend. Omar and Neal give it their highest recommendation, and no one has better taste than they do.Enjoy the show!

Darren and I discuss Euphoria's episode “Stand Still and See,” plus a few other shows and recent horror releases. We start with weather chatter and quick TV updates, including the latest Margot Has Many Trouble episode (Child Services investigation, custody threats, Nick Offerman and Greg Kinnear moments) and a recommendation for the horror film Obsession (from a YouTube filmmaker who made Milk and Cereal), along with Hokum and upcoming genre releases like Backrooms. We then break down Euphoria: Alamo's vivid, effective childhood prologue and how it frames his misogyny; Rue's heavy religious iconography (burning bush/Moses reference) and her church phone call with her mom; the DEA/Laurie/Alamo plot tightening around an ambulance-smuggling “one more run”; Cassie's funny, triggered audition improvisation and deleting her OnlyFans; Maddy's strip-club photo set and unease about Alamo; frustration with sidelined Nate and an unconvincing Rue/Jules romance. We speculate about the unusually long finale and want a Bishop backstory segment.

Margo's Got Money Troubles on Apple TV: our full book vs. show breakdown of episodes 1–4. Elle Fanning, Nick Offerman, Michelle Pfeiffer, and the cast deliver. We're talking about Apple TV's new series Margo's Got Money Troubles, based on the 2024 novel by Rufi Thorpe. This is our part one review covering the first four episodes of this David E. Kelley adaptation starring Elle Fanning as a young single mom who turns to OnlyFans to survive. Meaghan comes in with the full audiobook under her belt. Shirin watched completely fresh. Together we break down the stacked cast (Nick Offerman, Michelle Pfeiffer, Greg Kinnear, Thaddea Graham, Michael Angarano, Nicole Kidman), the major book-to-show changes, and why the writing on this thing is sharper than most adaptations manage. Topics include single motherhood and the childcare crisis, the nuance of Margo's OnlyFans decision, how the show softens some of the novel's rougher character edges, Nick Offerman's career-best performance as Jinx, and what we're expecting from the back half.   Margo's Got Money Troubles: The Apple TV Adaptation Based on Rufi Thorpe's 2024 bestselling novel, now a David E. Kelley series on Apple TV with an A24 production pedigree First three episodes dropped April 15, 2026; new episodes weekly through May 20 — sitting at a 96% on Rotten Tomatoes Elle Fanning stars as Margo Millet and also narrated the audiobook, giving her a unique dual ownership of this character Winner of the Clark Fiction Prize in 2026, with over 17,000 Amazon reviews — a genuine BookTok-to-screen pipeline success The Cast: Performances That Carry the Series Nick Offerman as Jinx delivers a career-best turn: tender grandfather, struggling addict, estranged father trying to make it right Michelle Pfeiffer brings layers to Shyanne that the book's Cheyenne didn't always get — selfish, complicated, and impossible to fully dismiss Thaddea Graham as Susie steals scenes; her friendship with Margo feels stronger in the show than in the source material Greg Kinnear's Kenny is endearingly goofy on screen, a departure from the book's more one-note version of the character Nicole Kidman as Lace is a show-original character (the book's version was Jinx's sister) — a retired wrestler who mediates Margo's legal battles Michael Angarano makes Mark exactly as spineless and hateable as he needs to be Book vs. Show: What Changed and What Hit Harder Shyanne is softer in the show — less overtly terrible, partially because Pfeiffer makes you see her logic even when it's selfish Susie's wrestling obsession is a show-only addition that gives her a built-in connection to Jinx The novel is narrated entirely from Margo's perspective; the show opens up POV to let Jinx and Shyanne breathe independently Becca's "put the baby in foster care" line is a show invention — the book version of the character doesn't go there Motherhood, Shame, and the Childcare Crisis The show highlights how society boxes women into "mom" the second a baby arrives, stripping every other identity they held Thorpe's novel includes a passage about the unfairness of night-shift workers being locked out of daytime childcare — a detail the show conveys visually The financial spiral is real: Margo can't afford childcare, can't work without childcare, can't survive without working OnlyFans, Sex Work, and Controlling Your Own Narrative The show neither glorifies nor shames Margo's choice — it treats OF as what it is for her: a practical financial decision Jinx is the one who brings up OnlyFans first, inspired by a wrestler who did it as a side gig Margo's intelligence as a marketer becomes a key storyline: she's strategic, resourceful, and creative about growing her audience The tension between motherhood and sex work is handled with real nuance — no easy answers, no moralizing What's Coming Next Part two of this review will cover the remaining episodes of Margo's Got Money Troubles once they wrap on May 20 The Off Campus series (Elle Kennedy) drops on Amazon Prime on May 13 — college hockey romance, all eight episodes at once  Devil Wears Prada 2 is up next week Subscribe on your favorite platform!SpotifyApple PodcastAmazon MusiciHeart RadioPodchaserYoutubeDon't forget to follow us on socials too!InstagramThreadsTikTokBlueSkyFacebook Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The 8 o’clock hour is all over the map in the best possible way, starting with a hilarious deep dive into Talk Soup history — from Greg Kinnear, John Henson, Hal Sparks, and Joel McHale to Mark revealing that he auditioned for the show himself

Zwei Serien, die aus unterschiedlichen Gründen für Furore gesorgt haben, kehren in dieser Woche zurück - allerdings so stark verändert, dass man sie kaum noch wiedererkennt. Zum einen serviert Netflix eine weitere Runde "Beef" (4:17), dieses Mal allerdings mit Oscar Isaac und Carey Mulligan als Streithähne, die sich in der zweiten Staffel der Anthologie mit einem jüngeren Ehepaar und Oscar-Gewinnerin Youn Yuh-jung bekriegen. Zum anderen kehrt "Euphoria" (52:05) mit der dritten und wahrscheinlich letzten Staffel zurück und präsentiert sich plötzlich als eine Art Neo-Italowestern im Vista-Vision-Gewand. Ob diese Identitätswechsel funktioniert haben, prägt die Diskussionen zwischen Michael, Rüdiger und Roland. Ganz neu ist die Apple-Serie "Only Margo" (30:21), die den Roman von Rufi Thorpe mit einer unglaublichen Starbesetzung verfilmt: Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, Nick Offerman, Greg Kinnear, um nur die größten Namen zu nennen. Die Geschichte einer alleinerziehenden Mutter, die sich mit Internet-Videos das Überleben sichert, ist so gut, dass sich Only Fans ihr zu Ehren in Only Fanning umbenennen sollte. Und zu guter Letzt werfen Holger, Michael und Rüdiger noch einen Blick auf das Finale von "The Pitt" (1:10:18) und erzählen, wie sie die komplette zweite Staffel in der Rückschau fanden. Cold-Open-Frage: "Marvel entlässt 8 % der Angestellten. Welchen Serien-Superhelden sollten sie schassen?"

Back to the longtime favorite running series inside the show - It Happened One Year's exploration of television programming specifically on November 3rd of a given year! This time around, Sarah & Joe dig into what the hell was going on that Friday night over at the FOX Network and cable's E! Entertainment Television. Not the most robust of original programming nights saw FOX roll out the short-lived, X-Files-esque FreakyLinks starring Ethan Embry and Dennis Christopher, while E! dropped another entry in their beloved look at chat and reality shows, Talk Soup. Along the way, the hosts get into a lot of random TV areas, including Cheaters, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, A.J. Benza, Greg Kinnear, The Nine, The Chicago Code, and more!

Most people never escape the circumstances they're born into — Dr. Ming Wang escaped Communist China with $50 and went on to restore sight to millions. In this episode of The Root of All Success, Jason Duncan sits down with Dr. Ming Wang, a Harvard- and MIT-trained physician, laser eye surgeon, and the inventor who donated a multi-million dollar patent to help blind children worldwide. Dr. Wang breaks down how he redefined success from outcomes to effort, why he chose purpose over profit, and how perseverance rooted in faith carried him from darkness to light — both literally and spiritually. This conversation dives into: Why he completed three years of high school in weeks to escape labor camps How earning both an MD and a PhD made him a one-of-a-kind surgeon The moment he chose to donate his invention instead of cashing in Why success should be measured by effort, not results How his conversion from atheism to Christianity transformed his purpose The business lesson medical school never taught him about serving your audience first If you're facing impossible odds, searching for deeper purpose in your work, or need to redefine what success means to you — this episode will challenge everything you thought you knew about achievement.

Dana and Tom with returning guests, Christine Duncan (Wife of Dana and Mother of Tom) and Heather Stewart (The Revisionist Almanac's Senior European Correspondent), to discuss the indie comedy Little Miss Sunshine (2006) for its 20th anniversary: directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Feris, written by Michael Arndt, cinematography by Tim Suhrstedt, music by Mychael Danna, edited by Pamela Martin, starring Greg Kinnear, Toni Collette, Alan Arkin, Paul Dano, Abigail Breslin, and Steve Carell.Plot Summary: Little Miss Sunshine is a comedy-drama about the Hoover family, a group of very different people trying to support one another. When young Olive Hoover (Abigail Breslin) qualifies for the Little Miss Sunshine beauty pageant, her parents—motivational speaker Richard (Greg Kinnear) and stressed but caring Sheryl (Toni Collette)—decide the whole family will travel with her from New Mexico to California. They pile into a rundown yellow van that becomes the setting for both humor and tension.Along the way, Olive's foul-mouthed grandfather Edwin (Alan Arkin), her depressed uncle Frank (Steve Carell), and her silent, angry teenage brother Dwayne (Paul Dano) each face their own struggles. As the trip goes wrong in unexpected ways, the family learns that winning is not as important as sticking together. The film balances comedy and emotion to show how love and acceptance can come from even the most imperfect family.Guests:Christine DuncanWife of Dana and Mother of Tom19x guestHeather StewartThe Revisionist Almanac's Senior European Correspondent@heatherjstewart on IG, X, LetterboxdPreviously on Monty Python's Life of Brian (1979), Requiem for a Dream (2000)Chapters:00:00 Introduction, Cast, and Background for Little Miss Sunshine02:57 Welcome Back, Heather and Christine!10:58 Why Are Comedies So Overlooked by Awards?17:50 Personal Relationship(s) with Little Miss Sunshine26:19 What is Little Miss Sunshine About?29:43 Plot Summary for Little Miss Sunshine31:00 Did You Know?39:26 First Break40:15 What's Happening with Heather and Christine43:54 Best Performance(s)01:03:46 Best Scene(s)01:21:50 Second Break01:22:40 Best/Funniest Lines01:27:27 The Stanley Rubric - Legacy01:39:27 The Stanley Rubric - Impact/Significance01:45:40 The Stanley Rubric - Novelty01:52:08 The Stanley Rubric - Classicness02:00:59 The Stanley Rubric - Rewatchability02:06:22 The Stanley Rubric - Audience Score and Final Total02:08:12 Remaining Questions for Little Miss Sunshine02:14:48 Thank You to Heather and Christine / Remaining...

This week, we review Little Miss Sunshine (2006), Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris's offbeat road trip dramedy about dysfunction, dreams, and the beauty of being unapologetically yourself. Abigail Breslin shines as Olive, a determined young girl en route to a beauty pageant, crammed into a busted yellow VW van with her deeply flawed but oddly lovable family. Featuring standout performances from Steve Carell, Toni Collette, Greg Kinnear, Paul Dano, and Alan Arkin, the film blends sharp wit with heartfelt moments as it explores failure, acceptance, and what it really means to win.Is chasing your dreams about the destination or just surviving the ride?

It's autumn in New York, and we're feeling the love with another Nora Ephron rom-com. This week, we're dialing up the classic Tom Hanks-Meg Ryan tale of “boy meets girl in internet chat room, boy discovers girl's true identity, and then boy kills girl's business and destroys her livelihood.” Audiences loved the third team-up of Hanks & Ryan (following Joe Versus the Volcano and Sleepless in Seattle) in this flick that retells Miklós László's 1937 play Parfumerie, which had previously been adapted as The Shop Around the Corner in 1940 and In the Good Old Summertime in 1949. Updated for the early online era, this version features an ensemble including Greg Kinnear, Parker Posey, Steve Zahn, Dave Chappelle, and Jean Stapleton. Although the movie booked over $250 million at the box office, not all critics penned rave reviews. One reviewer called the film “almost unwatchably saccharine, representing pretty much everything wrong with today's big-budget, high-concept Hollywood filmmaking,” while others bemoaned its rampant product placement. Less than two years after its release, the corporate marriage was consummated when America Online, the originator of the film's titular salutation, and studio Warner Bros. merged to form AOL Time Warner.

Director, Richard Shepard and Editor, Adam Lichtenstein FILM GEEK isn't just another notch on the IMDB belts of director, Richard Shepard and his friend and editor, Adam Lichtenstein.  This is the story of Richard's cinematic "life" and the mysterious father who was his guide into that world.  Deftly incoroporating clips from over 200 movies of the 70's and early 80's, FILM GEEK chronicles Richard's introduction and absorption into films both classic and forgotten, between the ages of 6 and 18.  From there, Richard would make the transition from amateur 8MM auteur, to being an "all-in" film student at NYU, where he would begin his over thirty-year friendship and collaboration with Adam.  And it is Adam whom Richard credits as drawing out the more personal aspects of his journey in FILM GEEK, most notably the story of his complicated but caring father. RICHARD SHEPARD Richard Shepard is an Emmy and DGA-winning director/writer whose feature films include the Golden Globe nominated The Matador starring Pierce Brosnan and Greg Kinnear, Dom Hemingway starring Jude Law and Richard E. Grant, and The Perfection starring Allison Williams and Logan Browning which was named one of the best horror films of the year by Rolling Stone, Vogue, Harper's Bazaar and New York Magazine. In his career, Shepard has directed ten television pilots to pick-up including Criminal Minds, now entering its 17th season; Ugly Betty for which Shepard won the Director's Guild award and Emmy award; the Golden Globe and Emmy nominated Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist; and Acapulco for Apple, now in its third season.

Fire investigator Dave Gudsen is assigned a new partner to help capture two arsonists. One has been setting fires with milk jugs filled with gasoline and grease. The other has been taunting officials with a delayed-ignition device that's burning grocery stores. Dave draws on his experience to write a novel about a heroic arson investigator with unusual insight into his suspect's mind. To Detective Michelle Calderone, the book reads more like a confession. She begins to wonder whether her partner's uncanny ability to pinpoint these fires' origins is because he's been setting them himself.Taron Egerton and Jurnee Smollett star in the Apple TV+ series “Smoke,” inspired by the podcast “Firebug.” The show also features Greg Kinnear, John Leguizamo, and Anna Chlumsky. As Dave closes in on the other arsonist he's hunting, Michelle secretly collects evidence to learn whether the smoke surrounding her partner will lead to actual fire.OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "SMOKE" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 13 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.In Crime of the Week: milkin' it.

Today on another episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Robert Crane, son of actor Bob Crane. Sadly, more has been spoken about the unsolved murder and the details surrounding the life of Bob Crane, the star of the hit 1960s television show Hogan's Heroes than about his actual career. Be it autobiographical movies like Auto Focus starring Greg Kinnear or books like My Unhollywood Family and Crane: Sex, Celebrity and My Father's Unsolved Murder both written by his son,  our guest, the mystery surrounding Bob Crane's death somehow has eclipsed all else. Today, we spoke to Robert about not only the devastation of losing his father in Scottsdale, Arizona in 1978 but also spending time with at KNX radio where his dad's massively popular radio show in the 1960s made him one of the most popular DJs in the country.  We discuss what Bob was like as a father  (both the good and the bad), the fractured family dynamic of Bob's first marriage and the fractured relationship with Bob's second family. We also change gears and discuss Robert's connection to SCTV via a book with Dave Thomas and his professional relationship as John Candy's publicist and assistant for more than half a decade. So yes, on this upcoming episode, we dig into the hard stuff as well as the personal stuff which made Bob Crane a fun loving dad as well as the tough stuff which never quite leaves you, even close to 50 years later. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and this is one interview, you wont forget. Take a listen.
