Healthcare marketing has had a caregiver persona for fifteen years. She was worried, researching options, wanting a second opinion. That was a fair description of the job in 2010. Today most family caregivers help with bathing, dressing and mobility, and many now handle injections, wound care, catheters and oxygen equipment at home. Eleven percent were trained for any of it. Chris Boyer and Reed Smith open on new research projecting how much bigger this population gets by 2040, and on why the explanation everyone reaches for turns out to be wrong. The rest of the first half is about why none of this reaches anyone's numbers. One caregiver arrives in a health system as three unlinked records. The one tool built to let her in goes unmarketed and almost unused, and the workaround hospital staff recommend instead would get a marketer fired. Then Chris turns to why every fix built for her quietly stops working around week three. Jessica Hulter and Lamarque Polvado of CareStarter built software that asked a clinic checkout desk for sixty seconds. Staff used it for two weeks, then stopped, and nobody could make them start again. What they did in response put the human somewhere other than where healthcare usually puts her, and Jessica is that human.

Good Enough to Keep Watching, Not Good Enough to Stop Complaining This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl take a somber look back at three icons we lost this week with Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, and Peter Cullen, and the massive mark each left on pop culture. Then it's back to the weekly watchlist as Ted Lasso tries to bring the Greyhounds together, Reacher digs deeper into an increasingly dangerous conspiracy, and Lanterns pushes Hal Jordan and John Stewart further into a mystery that is getting a whole lot more cosmic. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Celebrity Deaths This Week: 4:46 Ted Lasso Season 4 Episode 4: 16:20 Reacher Season 4 Episode 5: 24:40 Lanterns Season 1 Episode 2: 3240 Celebrity Deaths Dolly Parton January 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Country music icon, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist Dolly Parton died August 25 after what her representatives described as a brief battle with cancer. Her six-decade career produced classics including “Jolene,” “9 to 5,” and “I Will Always Love You,” while her film career included 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias. Parton's legacy extends far beyond music. She helped build Dollywood into one of Tennessee's biggest attractions and founded the Imagination Library, which has provided hundreds of millions of free books to children. Dollywood announced that the park would remain open following her death, honoring her belief that “the show must go on.” Infamous angle: One of those genuinely rare celebrities who seemed to transcend genre, politics, generations, and even celebrity culture itself. Tim Curry April 19, 1946 – August 25, 2026 | Age 80 Actor, singer, and voice performer Tim Curry died peacefully at his Los Angeles home following a period of ill health. Curry became a cultural icon as Dr. Frank-N-Furter in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but his ridiculously versatile career also included Clue, It, Home Alone 2, Muppet Treasure Island, Legend, The Three Musketeers, and decades of stage and voice work. He received three Tony nominations and continued working after suffering a major stroke in 2012 that left him using a wheelchair. For an entire generation of genre fans, Curry was basically the patron saint of unforgettable villains and weirdos. Peter Cullen July 28, 1941 – August 26, 2026 | Age 85 Legendary Canadian voice actor Peter Cullen died peacefully at his Los Angeles home surrounded by family. No cause of death has been announced. Cullen became inseparable from Optimus Prime, originating the character’s voice in the 1984 Transformers animated series and returning repeatedly across animation, games, and the live-action films. He also voiced Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh and contributed memorable vocal work to Predator, Knight Rider, G.I. Joe, and numerous animated series. The voice and personality he created for Optimus were inspired in large part by his older brother Larry, a decorated Marine veteran, whose advice to Peter was essentially that a real hero should be strong enough to be gentle. That philosophy became fundamental to Optimus Prime. Infamous angle: For anybody who grew up in the ’80s, this one hits differently. Optimus Prime wasn’t merely a cartoon voice. Ted Lasson (Apple TV) Network: Apple TV Genre: Comedy / Sports / Drama Developed By: Jason Sudeikis, Bill Lawrence, Brendan Hunt, Joe Kelly Starring: Jason Sudeikis, Hannah Waddingham, Juno Temple, Brett Goldstein, Brendan Hunt, Jeremy Swift Season: 4 Episode: 4 Episode Title: “Greyhounds’ Day Off” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Episode Summary Ted, Beard, and Coach Alice try to break up the cliques developing within the new team by canceling practice and sending everyone out for some forced bonding, eventually leading the group to pub trivia and considerably more trouble than Ted probably planned. Meanwhile, Rebecca and Keeley attend a women’s football business summit where they encounter eccentric sports investor Zelda Southport, played by Tracey Ullman. Zelda’s aggressive approach to investing in women’s sports gets Keeley’s attention while Rebecca remains considerably more skeptical. Roy and Keeley’s increasingly complicated relationship also continues, with Keeley challenging Roy to actually date other women before the two seriously consider getting back together. Rating Out of 5, Boots Ain’t Messing Around Brian: 3.3/5 Darryl: 3.1/5 Reacher (Amazon Prime) Network: Prime Video Genre: Action / Crime / Thriller Based On: Gone Tomorrow by Lee Child Developed By: Nick Santora Starring: Alan Ritchson, Sydelle Noel, Agnez Mo, Christopher Rodriguez-Marquette, Kevin Corrigan Season: 4 Episode: 5 Episode Title: “Bridge” Release Date: August 26, 2026 Rating: TV-MA Series Summary A seemingly random encounter aboard a Philadelphia subway pulls Jack Reacher into a conspiracy involving a missing flash drive, government operatives, hired killers, and information powerful people are desperate to keep buried. Season four adapts Lee Child's Gone Tomorrow and drops Reacher into an increasingly tangled political and intelligence conspiracy. Episode Summary After a misunderstanding turns Reacher into Philadelphia's most wanted man, he spends much of the episode doing what Reacher does best: escaping situations that should probably be impossible to escape. Meanwhile, Jacob, Tamara, and Plum recover the flash drive Anna mailed before her death, along with her phone, but their attempt to finally get some answers turns into a violent confrontation with Lila and Amisha. Jacob gets his first genuine opportunity to strike back at the people responsible for his sister's death. The recovered evidence also starts bringing the larger conspiracy into focus. A photograph connects Congressman Sampson to a disgraced Indonesian general, but Reacher suspects another person in the image may actually be more important to the mystery. Anna's phone also gives the group stronger evidence tying Lila directly to the killings. By the end, Reacher and Tamara's investigation leads them toward another confrontation while Jacob is taken hostage, leaving Tamara with a pretty awful decision to make. And this one definitely supports the subtitle vibe we were talking about: there's plenty of entertaining Reacher insanity here, but the season is getting increasingly dependent on everyone accepting some wildly convenient and increasingly ridiculous shit to keep the plot moving.

Brian: 3.2/5 Darryl: 3.25/5 Lanterns (HBO Max) Lanterns Network: HBO / HBO Max Genre: Drama / Sci-Fi / Action / Mystery Created By: Chris Mundy, Damon Lindelof, Tom King Starring: Kyle Chandler, Aaron Pierre, Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan, Laura Linney, Jason Ritter Season: 1 Episode: 2 Episode Title: “Trust Fall” Release Date: August 23, 2026 Rating: TV-14 Series Summary Veteran Green Lantern Hal Jordan is assigned to train former Marine and newly recruited Lantern John Stewart. Their relationship begins badly enough before the two are dragged into an investigation surrounding a bizarre killing in rural Nebraska. What initially resembles an Earthbound murder mystery steadily exposes a much larger extraterrestrial conspiracy connected to the history of the Green Lantern Corps. Episode Summary Hal and John investigate a deadly shooting in an attempt to prove that an alien force was responsible, with their investigation increasingly pointing toward one of the Green Lantern Corps’ oldest mistakes: the Manhunters. The episode digs deeper into the mystery surrounding Rushville while separating Hal and John enough to develop both characters individually. Sheriff Kerry also reveals that she originally came from Gotham, quietly expanding the show’s connections to the larger DCU.And then the episode drops the considerably bigger comic-book bomb: Sinestro, played by Ulrich Thomsen. The imprisoned former Lantern is positioned almost like the show’s Hannibal Lecter, someone Hal doesn’t trust but may need because Sinestro understands both Hal and the threat they are facing better than almost anyone.

The protest targets Sony's reported plan to stop producing new physical PlayStation releases beginning in January 2028, alongside broader frustration over price increases, studio closures, and the industry's continued shift away from physical ownership.

Ride or Die Friendship, espionage, and the age-old question: How well do you really know your best mate? This week we’re taking a high-speed detour into Ride or Die (2026), Amazon Prime Video’s action-comedy adventure that proves some friendships can survive anything… even international assassins.

Health and Human Services has decertified Network For Hope, a Kentucky-based organ procurement group, after allegations they did not follow proper safety procedures. Would-be donor TJ Hoover was hospitalized after a cardiac arrest. His family says that despite medical staff documenting improved neurological function, organ donor evaluation continued. Hoover survived. Network For Hope says they will appeal the decision. Emmy Award-winning actors Juno Temple and Hannah Waddingham share their thoughts on returning to "Ted Lasso" for a fourth season after a three-year hiatus. Temple returns as publicist Keeley Jones while Waddingham is back as club owner Rebecca Welton. Music lovers are weighing in on the 2026 song of the summer contenders. Jem Aswad, Variety's executive music editor, shares what he thinks makes a hit the standout of the season.
The high concept rom com "One Night Only" has an original premise, but sketchy execution. In a future where premarital sex is outlawed, one night a year is left open for singles to hook up. Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner play singles looking for a brief encounter, but circumstances keep throwing them together and pulling them apart. There are a few clever moments but "One Night Only" can never overcome its inherent phoniness. The twisted and blood-soaked horror comedy "Ice Cream Man" is morally repugnant. But for Spat Pack filmmaker Eli Roth, the king of ‘torture porn,' that's kinda the point. The treats served up by a mysterious vendor in a small town turns the kids into homicidal zombies. The crazed and foul-mouthed kids DO hideous things they're not nearly old enough to SEE on the big screen and an army of makeup artists create the grisly mayhem. “Ice Cream Man” lands a few twisted laughs, but you may feel like taking a shower afterward. The Apple TV sports comedy series "Ted Lasso" starring KC favorite son Jason Sudeikis is back for season four. The first episode which was shot here in town highlights several local landmarks. Ted's former British employers come to town to try to persuade him to return to England and coach a women's soccer team. Fans of the series know exactly what kind of cheeky humor to expect, and season four serves it up in welcome fashion. Just seeing award-winning British actress Hannah Waddingham become obsessed with Gates BBQ sauce is reason enough to tune in. The documentary "Cookie Queens" focuses on four girls undergoing the joys and pressures of Girl Scout cookie sales season. It's sweet but lighter than a thin mint.

If you haven't seen the clip of Tommaso Ciampa pulling a Bobby Orr jersey out of a trash can in the middle of a hardcore match at AEW Redemption then you can probably go ahead and do that now. Or don't. (That’s what they call a “callback“). AEW had their first pay-per-view in Montreal and I was happy to have made it out. Seeing Kenny Omega hit the One-Winged Angel in the middle of the Bell Centre is kind of like the wrestling equivalent to seeing Sidney Crosby score an OT game winner live. We spend the first half of the episode giving a rundown of the whole PPV so fair warning there. You know who else was in town this weekend? The one and only Weird Al Yankovic. Jono took his kid to see him at Just for Laughs and endured a massive crowd and a run of openers who apparently thought working blue in front of a family-friendly parody legend was a solid booking choice. Meanwhile Scott's been watching Ride or Die on Prime and is fully on board with Hannah Waddingham as a tall, terrifying spy who still has a best friend who has no idea she kills people for a living. Scott’s take that it's basically the first half of Kingsman if Kingsman didn't get stupid is a pretty interesting endorsement tbh. Hey. You.

Matt and Dawn are joined by site contributor Tyler to review four new shows available on different platforms this week. Firstly, Heartstopper, a show the trio have loved, concludes with a feature-length film, Heartstopper Forever. The condensed nature of Heartstopper Forever means a lot of what they loved about the series gets lost here, including a lot of the key characters. Next, BBC One has a new Sunday night drama that feels a little different. The Rapture, starring Ruth Madely. Prime Video has a new spy comedy thriller pairing the unlikely 'best friends' played by Hannah Waddingham and Octavia Spencer. Ride or Die is a silly drama lacking in depth; despite that, Dawn finds the positive, and it leaves her sobbing. Finally, Dianne Morgan leaves Philomena Cunk behind for a new BBC comedy, Anne Droid, which sees her take on the role of an AI carer for a weary Sue Johnson. Despite the awful trailers for the show, it's a far deeper exploration of age and having to depend on others. Lastly, for our quiz, how many shows that feature robots can Matt and Tyler name? Spoiler: It's far more than you imagine!

Keith likes "Ride or Die," an American action adventure comedy television series created by Tessa Coates, starring Octavia Spencer, Hannah Waddingham and Bill Nighy on Amazon Prime.
Send us Fan MailDeep loyalty, love, and devotion – even beyond reason – is a familiar romance trope. But right now I'm loving this trope applied to female friendships and relationships in action-packed stories about fearless women in dangerous jobs or pinned down by bad choices. Brave and sometimes foolish, they're backed by a ride-or-die chum who knows where the bodies are buried and where to get the best diner pancakes at 3 AM. And most importantly, how to be there for someone who's important to them.CW: explicit film clips, plenty of spoilers"I jumped from a moving train and I'm alive!" Fasten your seatbelt Deb, the adventure has just begun.Excellent interview with Ride or Die creator Tessa Coates and showrunner Matt Miller.If you haven't seen Hannah Waddingham as a football club owner in Ted Lasso, do that right away, because she's spectacular, and so is the entire cast.When the perp says you better run from a crazy funny but dysfunctional cop, you better run.This Melissa McCarthy blooper reel.Skeery Marvel even in cartoonish form, can be too much for me. But there's something about the abrasive loner Jessica Jones and her whole story that I find extremely compelling.

Anya Taylor-Joy is our guest in the studio this week, talking both her new show Lucky on Apple TV and her (and Steph's) love of dogs (32:50-50:51).

To wit: the return of twisted crime thriller The Crow Girl (1:10:07) on Paramount+, Hannah Waddingham and Octavia Spencer's buddy action comedy Ride Or Die on Prime Video (1:32:00), and Will Ferrell's golfing comedy The Hawk on Netflix (1:43:58).Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide.

Two powerhouse actresses are leading one of Prime Video's next big TV shows. ‘Ride or Die' is an action comedy about a couple of best friends who have to go on the run after one of them is revealed to be an international assassination. It stars Hannah Waddingham, of ‘Ted Lasso' fame, and Octavia Spencer, Academy Award winner for ‘The Help', as Judith Burton and Debbie Claybourne. Though this is the first project the two have worked on together, Spencer says the way they fell into a rhythm was seamless. “We were the only two people thought of for our roles, and then we both are active producers,” she told Hosking. “We are vested in this from different vantage points, so it was easy.” Waddingham agreed, telling Hosking they didn't have to think about that bit at all. “There was no kind of work required to find the chemistry – it was just there in spades.” Waddingham was approached directly for the role by Spencer and the show's creator Tessa Coates, Spencer saying they knew she was going to be as committed as she was. “There's nothing about that role that no one thought that Hannah would not be able to do." “I mean, it's a role of a lifetime, and my character is a role of my career,” Spencer told Hosking. “And we both are playing characters that we've never, they're complete departures from anything that we've done. Unsurprisingly, ‘Ride or Die' is filled with action sequences and stunt work – none of which, Waddingham says, is CGI. “I've got the bruises to prove it.” “If I was going to get on board with this woman [Spencer] and with Tessa Coates, with this glorious piece of work, I wasn't going to be the weak link.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's episode, we explore how fashion has become one of the Royal Family's most effective tools of influence — with Catherine, Princess of Wales at the centre of that strategy.Drawing on insights from Justine Picardie, royal fashion is described as “soft power,” a visual language used to project stability and continuity during uncertain times. One recent example: Catherine's gold gown and Lover's Knot tiara at a state banquet, reinforcing tradition and authority without saying a word.Also today, Sophie is earning a new nickname among royal watchers — “Super Sophie” — as her workload and visibility continue to grow.We look at actress Hannah Waddingham's increasing presence around royal events, including her work with Prince William's Earthshot Prize and her standout performance at the Royal Variety Performance, which reportedly prompted Catherine to say, “Amazing, that was fantastic.”After the break, we dig into the money: Prince William received $30.9 million from the Duchy of Cornwall in 2025, while residents in Poundbury raise concerns about upkeep.And finally, a rare glimpse inside royal life as Queen Elizabeth's private apartments at the Palace of Holyroodhouse are set to open to the public for the first time, offering what curators describe as “a rare glimpse into the personal, ‘lived-in' spaces” of the late Queen.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

As we celebrated International Women's Day earlier in the month we've been looking back at inspirational woman who've appeared on the podcast over the past seven years. Today it's the triple threat of Hannah Waddingham. It's a fabulous conversation from 2024 as she started filming for series 3 of Ted Lasso, on the eve of Emmy recognition. Listen, be inspired, and enjoy. Cheers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
