This week, Pop Culture Pastor rewinds one of the most influential adventure films ever made. From face-melting finales to rolling boulders, fedora grabs, and John Williams' iconic score, Dave and Cody break down why Raiders of the Lost Ark still works more than 40 years later.They explore peak Spielberg, peak Harrison Ford, and why Indiana Jones is the hero of the movie, even though the movie isn't really about him. Along the way: legendary behind-the-scenes stories, a surprisingly perfect Muppet casting, debates about what truly holds up (spoiler: almost everything), and a deeper look at the film's core tension between faith and control.Plus, a Pastor's Corner that digs into why Raiders isn't just fun—it's timeless, primal, and still saying something meaningful about power, reverence, and humility.Also: The surprising return of Kenan & Kel.https://linktr.ee/PopCulturePastorPod

Around 180 million people are bracing for the winter weather that may bring subzero temperatures and heavy snowfall to much of the country. President Trump signed an executive order this week aimed at boosting the housing market. The goal is to increase the supply of homes available to buy by preventing big investors from purchasing single family homes for the rental market.

CBS News MoneyWatch correspondent Kelly O'Grady explains what's driving the change.

Elizabeth Palmer reports on the emotional testimony.

Zahrai says it's important not to compare yourself to others and find trust in yourself. The "CBS Mornings" series "USA to Z," which brings stories from across the U.S. to celebrate 250 years of America, is focusing on "C" for Constitution.

This week, the boys head back to 1982 to discuss Ridley Scott's “Blade Runner: The Final Cut”. Dave shared his thoughts on whether he prefers this or the original theatrical release (with or without the voice-over???), and Jeff and Dave debate how much, or how little, went into Harrison Ford wondering if he was still frozen in carbonite! Star Wars joke, we really discussed whether or not he was a replicant, of course. Jeff also got us started with a mini-review of “Song Sung Blue”.

Here are some highlights:1. Robert Downey Jr. did not improvise the line "I am Iron Man". It's in the "Iron Man" script.2. There isn't a DEAD munchkin hanging in the background "The Wizard of Oz". It's a bird, and you can see it move like a bird.3. In "Titanic", Jack could physically fit on the door, but it wouldn't have supported him and Rose. The main point of the scene was Jack's sacrifice, not carpentry.4. John Travolta's briefcase in "Pulp Fiction" does not have a secret meaning. Quentin Tarantino has said the glow is just for storytelling.5. George Lucas did not plan "Star Wars" from the beginning. Darth Vader was not intended to be Luke's father when he made the first film.6. Harrison Ford did not accidentally "shoot" the swordsman in "Raiders of the Lost Ark". It was planned. They wanted to simplify the scene by just having Indy end it with a quick bullet.

I read that the Indiana Jones franchise is officially dead. There was a 5th one, and it was a total flop. Just like the Golden Globes.Indiana Jones won't be returning to cinemas any time soon, it has been confirmed.The long-running franchise starring Harrison Ford came to a miserable pseudo-end in 2023 with the release of Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, which was a commercial disaster for Disney and LucasFilm.Now, in a new interview with departing Lucasfilm chief Kathleen Kennedy, the immediate future of the character has been set in stone, with Kennedy explaining that a revival is highly unlikely.“I don't think Indy will ever be done, but I don't think anybody is interested right now in exploring it,” Kennedy told Deadline, when asked whether a reboot is on the cards.She further explained that the 2023 sequel only came about in the first place due to a desire by Ford himself to revive the character.What it made me think of is politics. The number of politicians who keep using the same formula. They don't realize that the sequels are dead.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Since I've seen Maya's work on the Years Project with people like executive producers James Cameron and Arnold Schwarzenegger, I was worried I might feel starstruck.Oh wait, she also worked with series creators Joel Bach and David Gelber (of 60 Minutes); chief science advisors podcast guest Joseph Romm and Heidi Cullen; and episode hosts including Cameron, Schwarzenegger, Harrison Ford, Ian Somerhalder, America Ferrera, David Letterman, Gisele Bündchen, Jack Black, Matt Damon, Jessica Alba, Sigourney Weaver.Oh, and the series won an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series.She was engaging, informative, open, and fun.

Hey, it's Dave Jackson here! In this episode, I'm diving letting you see why patience and persistence matter more than anything else in podcasting (and, honestly, in most creative pursuits). We've all been spoiled by the microwave mentality (wanting quick results and instant gratification) but the real success stories are built over years, not weeks.I kick things off with the story of the microwave's invention as a metaphor for how society craves instant results, then flip the script to talk about why that approach just doesn't work in podcasting.What Does it Take to Be Known?You'll hear me break down the journeys of big names like Morgan Freeman, Samuel L. Jackson, Harrison Ford, Bryan Cranston, Lucille Ball, and even musicians like Bonnie Raitt and Andrea Bocelli—all of whom pushed through years (sometimes decades) before their “big break.” Yes, even Adam Sandler and Jerry Seinfeld had plenty of failures, awkward moments, and years of grinding before the world knew their names. I share how their experiences relate directly to podcasting, and why embracing your own style and sticking with what you love can make all the difference.You Need To Be More Than "Good"I also talk about the importance of consistency, cross-promotion, knowing your audience, and making your content “remarkable”—the kind people just have to talk about. I share how Seinfeld didn't become a household name overnight, and how even my own podcast journey has been about slow, steady growth, not big, sudden leaps.Plus, I get into listener engagement strategies, word-of-mouth tactics, and why you should appreciate the connections and opportunities podcasting brings, from new friendships to dream gigs. And yes, you'll hear a little power rant about the NFL's approach to consistency (or lack thereof)!Because of My Podcast Lou MongelloFinally, I wrap up with plenty of listener “because of my podcast” stories, examples of how podcasting opens doors you never imagined, and a reminder that there's nothing stopping you from growing your show except your own willingness to put in the time and effort.If you want to get inspired and set the right expectations for your own podcast journey—or just need a reminder that you're not alone in the slow grind—this episode is for you.

In this episode of Mission Matters, Adam Torres interviews Luke Tennie and Noam Shapiro, Lead Actors, Producers & Writers at Dirty Coffee Pictures, about their award-winning short film JADE and its FilmShortage streaming premiere (January 14th). They share how they collaborated from a fast-writing process to a polished short designed as a calling card—and how they're using the release to build momentum toward a potential series. About Luke Tennie Luke Tennie grew up in South Florida, the youngest of three. Upon graduating from The American Musical and Dramatic Academy in 2016, Luke booked his very first film audition, Shock & Awe (alongside: Tommy Lee Jones, Woody Harrelson, James Marsden) with Rob Reiner at the helm. Since then, his career has become a steady crescendo as he's gone on to star in Deadly Class (Benedict Wong, Lana Condor), Snowfall, Safety (Disney+), CSI: Vegas, Players (Paramount+), and most recently Shrinking, written by the Emmy-award winning team of Ted Lasso, Brett Goldstein & Bill Lawrence as well as Jason Segel, starring none other than Harrison Ford in his television debut on AppleTV+.” About Noam Shapiro Noam is a native New Yorker, currently based in the Bronx. He previously held a decade-long rap career, where he learned the basics of stage-craft, rhythm, and storytelling. Noam has worked on The Marvelous Mrs Maisel, The Kill Room (opposite Samuel L. Jackson & Uma Thurman), American Horror Story, Lady In The Lake (opposite Natalie Portman), Powerbook II: Ghost, and Let The Right One In.” Noam is an acting professor at AMDA NY. About Dirty Coffee Pictures Dirty Coffee Pictures, founded by Luke Tennie and Noam Shapiro, is an independent film production company. The company creates stories that allow it to navigate in the gray—focusing on the nuance of people's experiences. Its stories are character-driven, humorous, and dramatic. Luke Tennie and Noam Shapiro deeply value collaboration.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesThe second Avengers: Doomsday teaser trailer dropped everywhere on Tuesday and features the God of Thunder himself, Chris Hemsworth as Thor. Where the Captain America trailer played much like a silent film, this one gives us a monologue's worth of dialogue from Thor as he prays for strength to fight one last enemy. On the Happy, Sad, Confused Podcast this week, Ryan Coogler detailed what Black Panther 2 might have been before the death of Chadwick Boseman. T'Challa and his young son would have fought Namor side by side, with Namor being an “insanely dangerous” version of the character. Coogler reiterated that the film they made meant he “got a chance to make a movie about women…I love that movie so much.” Boseman was too ill to even read the original script that Coogler finished. Though he's working on resurrecting The X-Files for television, Coogler said of Black Panther 3 that he has “this movie on my heart.” With a fairly quiet Christmas at the box office, Avatar: Fire and Ash continued to wear the crown, climbing to a global total of $760 million, while A24's Marty Supreme starring Timothee Chalamet had a studio best opening to $27.1 million. Other films with big names opened including Anaconda featuring Paul Rudd and Jack Black; The Housemaid, starring Amanda Seyfried and Sydney Sweeney; and Song Sung Blue, which was star-studded with Hugh Jackman and Kate Hudson. None did as well as Chalamet's period piece and certainly not James Cameron's continued epic.Danny Ramirez will not return to HBO's The Last of Us season 3 due to scheduling conflicts. His role will be recast.The highly anticipated Peaky Blinders feature film, now officially titled Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man, has been set for theatrical release in select cinemas on March 6, 2026. Netflix also released the first teaser trailer for the film.Apple TV and Legendary Entertainment are expanding the “Monsterverse” universe, announcing a new show starring Wyatt Russell, who will reprise his role as Colonel Lee Shaw in a prequel series. Writer/producer Joby Harold is set to serve as showrunner.Apple TV has released the first trailer for season 3 of Shrinking, which shows the first look at Michael J. Fox, who was added to the cast alongside Jason Segal and Harrison Ford.

In honor of the tenth anniversary of The Force Awakens, Ryan and Dylan kick off the Star Wars specials with a look at the highly divisive, yet often wonderfully brilliant, conclusive trilogy to the Skywalker Saga.
Send us a text2026 is the Year of the Fire Horse - What's that mean?Let's break it down. First, the year of the horse is known for bringing with it the energy of independence, charisma, and basically getting LOTS done! Think drive and dynamism. This year also marks one of intense innovation, bold action and strong leadership potential.Now, the fire element that is a part of this 43rd combination of the 60-year Chinese sexagenary cycle? First, what does your gut say Fire will add? Fire is associated with passion, vitality, and creativity. As an element, it intensifies the natural traits of the Horse. Is that what you got? I had some of that right, but not all.Together then, fire and horse can mean this will be a year of extraordinary drive and dynamism. It might be a period of intense innovation, bold action and strong leadership potential (and we aren't necessarily talking politics by the way). The fire horse can be a sign of extremes, meaning events can occur with spectacular good or bad luck, we will rarely see the in-between bits. Could this signal the death gasp of the old dualistic nature on Earth? I don't know. I do know that the wood snake last year held the energy of itchiness, a bursting out of our old skins, like right before a snake sheds that old skin and comes into its new one. The end of 2025 had that teeth gnashing, low belly ache of knowing something is coming, but not knowing what. The Fire Horse is a sure sign something new is here. Whew. What it is? Well, I don't know, but whatever it is, we are stronger than we thought we were at the start of 2025, and that strength ensures we will make certain our communities, our patch of earth and we are okay with the new whatever.Famous Horses of HistoryBecause they are bold, horses tend to be journalists, politicians, and comedians. Here are a few famous horses; Gordon Ramsey, Lou Reed, Harrison Ford, Sean Connery, Neil Armstrong, and Barbra StreisandIn general, those born in the Year of the Horse are hardworking, thorough, helpful, generous, and determined. Their secret friends are sheep. Their allies are tigers and dogs, from the Chinese Zodiac.Ona Christie Martin, our special guest, and all of the links to her work!

It's been ten years since those iconic words crawled across theater screens, ushering in a new era of Star Wars.In this special 10th Anniversary Review, we are joined by Kyra Navarrete (Relatable Nerds) and Chris Ryons (Broaxium) to revisit The Force Awakens. @relatablenerds @BROAXIUM From the shock of the 2012 Disney acquisition to the "mystery box" of J.J. Abrams, we break down the characters that defined a generation. We discuss the cocky charm of Poe Dameron, the complex rage of Kylo Ren, and the incredible—yet underutilized—potential of Finn. We also look at the "bridge" of the sequel era: Harrison Ford's pivotal performance as Han Solo. Whether you're a die-hard Original Trilogy fan or a Sequel defender, join us as we head back to Jakku to see how the film holds up a decade later.

Skywalking Through Neverland: A Star Wars / Disney Fan Podcast
"There has been an awakening - have you felt it?" We kick off our 10th anniversary celebration of Star Wars: The Force Awakens by traveling back 10 years to the excitement and anticipation of 2015. We're joined by TCL Chinese Theatre IMAX line-organizer Ric Peralta of LiningUp.net and actor Dee Tails, who appeared in the film as the always-smiling Cratinus in Maz Kanata's castle. Together, we reminisce about the anticipation surrounding Disney's first Star Wars sequel and how The Force Awakens became a defining moment for modern Star Wars fandom and forged lifelong friendships along the way. This is Part 1 of our celebration, with more premiere and press event memories coming next week. Our conversation dives into our weeks spent camping outside the TCL Chinese Theatre and the electric energy leading up to opening night. Ric discusses lining up traditions and surprise celebrity encounters during The Force Awakens line in Hollywood. Dee shares behind-the-scenes stories straight from Maz Kanata's castle - including the impact of J.J. Abram's direction and seeing Harrison Ford as Han Solo. We also share Skywalker memories—from camping out at the TCL Chinese Theatre and meeting BB-8 in person, to celebrating birthdays, first family Star Wars screenings, and the emotional impact of that opening night. Looking back ten years later, The Force Awakens still holds a special place in our hearts—not just for the film itself, but for the friendships and community that grew out of that unforgettable release.

A long time ago in an office in Bath... we said we'd do a series on Star Wars. Finally, here it is. We start where it all began, with 1977's A New Hope (or simply 'Star Wars' as it was known back then). An un-assuming sci-fi adventure with a cast full of unknowns that director George Lucas thought was going to bomb - so much so that he went on holiday to avoid the noise around its release.What follows is movie history - the biggest film franchise of all time was born. But how does the original measure up to what's come since? How did a simple post production decision transform the entire finale? And is Harrison Ford actually handsome in this one? We discuss all this and more as we move scene-by-scene through the film that started it all.We'll be watching the original Star Wars trilogy followed by the prequel trilogy, all through December and January. Dates are below!Star Wars: An Intro - 8/12/25Bonus - Star Wars Games - 10/12/25A New Hope - 15/12/25Empire Strikes Back - 22/12/25Mail Bag End 2 - 24/12/25Return Of The Jedi - 29/12/25 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
In this episode of Franchise Addicts, we dive headfirst into one of the most controversial blockbusters of the 21st century: Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (2008).Set in the Cold War era, Crystal Skull sees Indiana Jones pulled into a Soviet conspiracy involving a mysterious crystal skull, ancient civilizations, secret military experiments, and the lost city of Akator. Directed by Steven Spielberg and produced by George Lucas, the film marked Harrison Ford's return to the iconic role nearly 20 years after The Last Crusade — and instantly split fans down the middle.We break down the entire plot, analyze the alien vs. mythology debate, discuss the infamous “nuke the fridge” scene, the introduction of Mutt Williams, the return of Marion Ravenwood, and whether the movie's sci-fi turn fundamentally misunderstands what makes Indiana Jones work. We also examine the film's historical inspirations, cinematography choices, heavy use of CGI, and how Crystal Skull reflects 1950s Atomic Age paranoia and B-movie science fiction.Is Kingdom of the Crystal Skull an underrated adventure weighed down by internet backlash — or a miscalculation that lost the soul of the franchise? Where does it rank among the Indiana Jones films, and how does it compare to Raiders of the Lost Ark, Temple of Doom, The Last Crusade, and Dial of Destiny?Whether you love it, hate it, or still argue about aliens, refrigerators, and monkeys, this episode is a full, honest reassessment of Indiana Jones 4 — no nostalgia goggles required.
Dec. 12-18: Laurence Fishburne does Shakespeare, Alan Rickman is finally the good guy, Harrison Ford gets romantic, Bart gets a four-finger discount, Jeff Daniels gets divorced, The Producers gets Producered, another very Diane Keaton Christmas, Moral Orel is immoral, Amy Poehler and Tina Fey throw a party, Alvin and the Chipmunks hit the road, and we will not play board games because we don't want to be Jumanji'd. All that and more from 30, 20, and 10 years ago.
For their 220th episode, two bare-chested critics, two archeologist dads, and two whip-cracking teachers, Will Johnson and Don Shanahan, take an expedition back to the great cinematic and cultural milestone year of 1984 to cover the sequel "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom." Everyone involved, from filmmakers Steven Spielberg and George Lucas to the game cast of Harrison Ford, Kate Capshaw, and Ke Huy Quan.

Paul and Erin review two films from Peter Weir's Hollywood period: the 1985 Harrison Ford thriller WITNESS and the 1990 romantic comedy GREEN CARD.
Zo returns to a far, far away galaxy. It's a galaxy with an abundance of life giving worlds with a multitude of strange sentient beings and cultures. It is also a place of strife and conflict and immersed in a war among the stars. There is an overarching government that was seized by a power hungry leader who granted himself the title of Emperor and ruled through oppression. The once great Galactic Republic of freedom had become a dystopian nightmare. So great was the oppression that disparate resistance fighters immerged and eventually banded together to form The Rebellion to Restore the Republic. The Rebels gather the greatest fleet that they could gather to engage in a final desperate gambit to end the Empire once and for all time. If they fail then the Rebellion would be crushed, the Emperor will rule unchallenged and the vast and various denizens of the Galaxy would live in unforgiving squalor for time unending.

In this episode of Houselights, we navigate through Kathryn Bigelow's "K-19: The Widowmaker," focusing on its technical brilliance and narrative challenges. We discuss the film's claustrophobic cinematography, the nuanced performances of Harrison Ford and Liam Neeson, and the historical context that frames this gripping submarine drama. While the film excels in its technical execution, the emotional connection with the characters remains elusive, leaving us with a complex yet compelling cinematic experience.
Zo is joined by Jenn from My Streaming Bubble and Twin It to Win It podcasts to bear witness to an interstellar civil war. They've imbedded themselves with a faction that calls itself the Rebellion to Restore the Republic (also known by their opponents, the First Galactic Empire as "Rebel Scum"). They've traveled with the Rebellion from the permanent snowball of a planet known as Hoth to an undisclosed location with their fleet in deep space. Meanwhile, a number of their leaders were delayed with their arrival to the fleet. Their Commander, Luke Skywalker, had taken a sabbatical to continue his mystic training that the Rebels believe will be a great asset to their eventual victory. It is believed that Captain Han Solo and a former Senator of Alderaan - Princess Leia Organa may have been captured by the supreme commander of the Imperial Fleet: Lord Darth Vader. Zo and Jenn are grateful for the lull of activity while the Rebels wait anxiously at their secret rendezvous point in the hopes that their most important leaders will somehow return. They barely made it out of the Hoth system alive and they've had enough excitement for one lifetime.#StarWars Episode Chapters00:14:50 Opening Credits for Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back Starring Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford and Carrie Fisher00:33:05 Favorite Parts of the 1980 film Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back01:24:25 Trivia from the sci-fi action fantasy Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back 01:39:26 Critics' Thoughts on Irvin Kershner's Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back Jenn's LinksMy Streaming Bubble WebsiteMy Streaming Bubble on Pod.link: Twin It To Win it on PodlinkTwitter: @StreamingBubble Facebook: @MyStreamingBubble Instagram: @MyStreamingBubble Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.

In this episode of Pop Culture Pastor, Dave and Cody sprint headfirst into Edgar Wright's new adaptation of The Running Man, asking the big question: is this the movie that officially crowns Glen Powell as the next great everyman action star?The guys start with a wild but oddly wholesome news item: Timothée Chalamet calling Adam Sandler “one of the best actors of all time” during their “Sandler x Chalamet” event. That launches a fun conversation about Sandler's career arc — from “guy who just makes vacation movies with his buddies” to secretly one of the most versatile actors working, thanks to turns in Punch-Drunk Love and Uncut Gems. There's also a quick detour into DC's Lanterns delay, James Gunn's DCU, and why everything around Warner Bros. feels just a little… wobbly.Then it's full-on Running Man review mode:how this version leans back into Stephen King's original dystopian nightmarewhy Glen Powell feels like the spiritual heir to Bruce Willishow Colman Domingo and Josh Brolin absolutely cook in limited screen timewhy the Hunters are a huge missed opportunity, and how Alan Ritchson could've fixed the whole problem with one menacing glareplus a Deeper Themes segment on media, virtue signaling, and why the real villain might be the human heart, not just “rich bad guys in offices.”In The Lobby, listeners ask about the many faces of Cody (Contrarian Cody, Capitalist Cody, Chaotic Cody, and more), dream podcast guests (Scorsese, Paul Walter Hauser, Weird Al, Harrison Ford), and whether a live-action Legend of Zelda movie can truly be the Lord of the Rings of video game adaptations.Oh, and yes—there's talk of Christmas playlists, Die Hard–inspired Christmas shirts, and why Michael Cera is somehow the loser of the movie simply because there wasn't enough of him.
Zo was previously in a galaxy far, far away, where he witnessed fantastic events. He was then transported to another part of that same galaxy to witness those same events play out in almost the same way, but in an even weirder and goofy manor. He's now returned to the original part of that same galaxy which had somehow got even worse, weirder, goofier, and somehow sadder. It seemed like something that held enormous promise, but turned out to be a fantastic disappointment. That's the problem with holidays. They're supposed to be a time to celebrate, but they sometimes turns out so bad that it can drive a man to drink. In this part of the galaxy the star wars continue through the holidays and the denizens are determine to make the holidays special in these dark times.

The bizarre, incoherent ‘Star Wars Holiday Special' was broadcast only once, on 17th November, 1978. Despite CBS signing up the stars of the original movie - Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, the plot swapped epic battles for a bizarre variety show filled with cameos from Harvey Korman, Bea Arthur, and Jefferson Starship. The story revolves around Chewbacca's family as celebrate “Life Day” on their home planet, Kashyyyk. George Lucas' initial vision was for a sombre, character-driven tale. But instead, it evolved into a chaotic blend of guest star sketches, dodgy green screens, and musical numbers. Lucas reportedly hated it so much he wished to destroy every copy with a sledgehammer. Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why Fisher ended up singing a new song to the tune of John Williams's Star Wars theme; consider how Disney attempted to scrub the memory of the Special from the Star Wars canon after acquiring Lucasfilm; and contemplate the wisdom of making Wookies - who speak an unintelligible language, with no subtitles - the stars of the show… Further Reading: • ‘The Star Wars Holiday Special: A Retrospective' (Empire, 2009): https://www.empireonline.com/movies/features/star-wars-holiday-special/ • ‘Star Wars Holiday Special: Inside the Confusing Christmas Special' (Thrillist, 2017): https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/star-wars-holiday-special • 'The Star Wars Holiday Special' (CBS, 1978): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxtSX1lg8rE Love the show?

Michael J. Fox is an award-winning actor, author, and philanthropist whose talent, humor, and heart have inspired generations. Four decades after Back to the Future made him a global star, Michael J. Fox sits down with Willie Geist to reflect on the film that defined a generation and the resilience that's defined his life since. He opens up about the whirlwind of becoming Marty McFly at 23, the joy of rediscovering the movie as a fan, and the impact of the Michael J. Fox Foundation, which has raised more than $2.5 billion for Parkinson's research. Plus, through decades of challenges and triumphs, Fox shares why he still believes “everything is possible.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
