Long before Gypsy Rose Blanchard's mother was murdered, the tension inside that house was already at a breaking point. The private videos between Gypsy and Nick Godejohn that nobody was supposed to see. The evidence of violence that the HBO documentary never showed you. And the text messages from the night of June 9th, 2015, read out loud, minute by minute. They are not what you expect. Gypsy's critics say she was the violent one all along. That it was Dee Dee who had reason to be afraid.

HBO's new DC superhero show Lanterns is not the show you think it is. It's about a couple of space cops: Kyle Chandler plays Earth's Green Lantern, Hal Jordan, a grizzled, impulsive old-timer reluctantly training up his backup, John Stewart (Aaron Pierre). Yet the story avoids cosmic sweep and spectacle in favor of a character-driven mystery and a grounded setting. Does this series thread the needle to appeal to comics nerds and newcomers alike?If you need more superhero stories, check out these episodes: 'Supergirl' has a solid hero but could use a better villainMarvel's ‘Wonder Man' is a low-key, low-stakes buddy comedyConnect with Pop Culture Happy Hour:Letterboxd / FacebookOur weekly newsletterSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

Scott Galloway joins Bill Maher for a wide-ranging conversation about the state of American men, modern dating, AI, and the economy. The bestselling author, host of The Prof G Pod, and co-host of Pivot argues that young men have more agency than they think, and that learning to handle rejection is part of moving forward. He and Bill get into porn, the incel movement, the manosphere, why humor and kindness still matter, and why men should pick up the check. Galloway tells the story of meeting his wife, debates Bill on the existential risks of AI, and weighs in on China's growing AI advantage, tariffs, capitalism, the shrinking middle class, inherited wealth, and whether older generations have tilted the economy too far in their own favor..

Zach Heinzerling is an Academy Award-nominated and Emmy Award-winning director based in New York City. He began his career at HBO working on four consecutive Emmy Award-winning documentaries and the Emmy Award-winning series “24/7” as a Field Producer and Cinematographer. In 2012, he left HBO to complete his feature debut, the multi-award-winning film, “Cutie and the Boxer”, which he both directed and shot. “Cutie and the Boxer” was nominated for the 2014 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature. The film also won a 2015 Emmy Award for Best Feature Documentary. In 2015 he was enlisted by Beyoncé Knowles-Carter to direct the five-part web series “Self-Titled” for her album, “Beyoncé.” In 2019 he directed an episode of “Dirty Money” for Netflix. In 2021, he directed the critically acclaimed 6-part series “McCartney 3,2,1” starring Sir Paul McCartney and Rick Rubin for Hulu. Salon called it “quite simply, the most engaging documentary ever made about the songwriting exploits of popular music's most successful composer.” His latest docu series entitled “Rafa” is a four part show for  HBO  that follows Nadal through his final professional season. He is also the director of  “Stolen Youth: Inside the Cult of Sarah Lawrence”  which the The New Yorker calls “a remarkable work, advancing the prestige true-crime genre's slow but steady reorientation toward centering victims,” while Variety raved “…with a startling rawness and directness, Heinzerling's work makes a case for itself as an unusually sensitive and strong outing in its genre.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Comedy historian and author Kliph Nesteroff joins Jay to answer one of life's great mysteries: Why are Canadians so damn funny? From Jim Carrey and Norm Macdonald to Kids in the Hall, Nathan Fielder, SCTV, Michael J. Fox, and countless others, Canada has produced an absurd amount of comedy talent. Kliph has a theory about why — and it might have something to do with being an outsider looking in on America. Kliph also tells Jay about growing up in rural Canada, obsessing over comedy and The Simpsons, becoming “California sober” before ever moving to California, and the legendary high school election where he roasted his teachers in front of the entire school, won the presidency 398–2… and promptly got kicked out. They also dig into the strange history of Canadian television, why some brilliant Canadian comedians never become famous in America, what actually makes something funny, and why Southern California apparently doesn't count as moving to the United States. Kliph's new book, Sorry, We're Funny: How Canada Became a Comedy Powerhouse, explores how a country once dismissed as humorless became responsible for some of the funniest people in entertainment. And after nearly an hour of discussing what makes Canadians funny, absolutely no progress is made toward explaining Jay. Bio: Kliph Nesteroff is the author of four books about comedy: The Comedians, We Had a Little Real Estate Problem, Outrageous and the forthcoming Sorry, We're Funny: How Canada Became a Comedy Powerhouse. He often appears in his capacity as comedy historian on CNN, HBO and Vice and has worked on projects with Judd Apatow, Albert Brooks and the late Rob Reiner. Born in Castlegar, British Columbia, he grew up watching Wayne and Shuster and the Kids in the Hall on CBC.

Zazz is an wonderful actress, singer, and songwriter. She's performed in theater, concert and cabaret venues. She's appeared on Late Night with Stephen Colbert and in the HBO documentary Master Class with Bobby McFerrin, and she's toured with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Here's how she came to be a guest. I first came across Zazz when I interviewed Will Healy, a fabulous musician, about a year ago. One of the works that he gave me for the Songfest was a Zoom video by his group Shouthouse and it featured a terrific singer. I told him that I really liked the video, particularly the singer. And he told me that the singer was Zazz. And then some months later I interviewed the incredible rapper Dizzy SenZe on the show. She also performed with Shouthouse and she sent me the same video, the one with Zazz singing. I knew that I had to have her on the show and she introduced us. My featured song is my reimagined version of “The 'In' Crowd”. It's from the album PGS 7 by my band Project Grand Slam.

What movies have the greatest ensemble casts of all time? On this episode of The Next Reel, Lance Taylor and Tyler Johns take a listener suggestion and each reveal their Top 3 favorite ensemble movie casts — from legendary directors like Quentin Tarantino, Christopher Nolan, Paul Thomas Anderson and Peter Jackson to films packed with some of Hollywood's biggest stars. Before the rankings, Lance and Tyler catch up on everything they've been watching lately, including True Detective, Lethal Weapon, Sugar, Lanterns, The Murdochs: Dynasty of Power and a deep dive into several underrated post-apocalyptic movies. They discuss why True Detective Season 1 still holds up, Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson's unforgettable chemistry, whether True Detective Season 2 deserves its bad reputation, the possibility of Mel Gibson bringing Lethal Weapon back, Colin Farrell in Sugar, HBO's weekly-release strategy for Lanterns, and much more.

Dan Nathan sits down with Paul Costolo, former CEO of Twitter and current VC. They start with Dick's early comedy days (Second City alongside Steve Carell, two SNL auditions that didn't pan out) and his stint writing for HBO's Silicon Valley, before diving into his path from founding FeedBurner to running Twitter through its IPO — including candid stories about the culture shift from private to public company life, and a surreal late-night run-in with Jack Dorsey in Paris in the middle of Elon Musk's takeover drama. From there they get into Dick's venture firm, 01 Advisors, and his thesis on investing in the AI "enablement layer" (the infrastructure sitting above the models) rather than chasing the flashiest apps. Dick shares his read on today's eye-popping valuations — including Stripe's $7 billion acquisition of OpenRouter and a leaked investor letter claiming "the singularity happened on New Year's Day" — and gives his predictions for the coming wave of AI IPOs, arguing Anthropic and SpaceX are well positioned while OpenAI could face a tougher road given its executive turnover and messaging challenges. They close by talking about prediction markets (and the striking gap between how well people think they're doing on platforms like Kalshi versus reality), before wrapping up with a plug for Dick's own podcast, the Dick and Paul Show. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media The financial opinions expressed in Risk Reversal content are for information purposes only.

HBO built a kingdom out of chaos, and this episode is the proof. The crew goes show by show through a wild blind ranking of the greatest HBO and Max originals, and the takes get bold fast - from Game of Thrones and The Wire to Insecure, True Detective, Vice Principals, and beyond. What starts as a fun ranking turns into a full-on argument about what really deserves top-tier status, what got overrated, and what hidden gems still hit harder than people remember. They break down everything from prestige dramas and cult comedies to animated hits, mini-series, and the shows that quietly shaped a whole generation. You'll hear sharp opinions on:why some “classic” shows still divide fanswhich HBO series aged like fine winethe sleepers nobody talks about enoughthe shows that should be way higherand the ones that never deserved the hype in the first placeIf you love TV debates, nostalgia, and unfiltered opinions about the shows that made HBO legendary, this one is for you. It's funny, heated, and packed with the kind of real talk that makes you yell at your headphones. Press play and see where your favorites land.

Today, I welcome two guests to the show, Alma Derricks and Eliza VanCort, the co-creators of Ignite, a leadership experience built around a simple but incredibly timely idea. As technology and AI continue to reshape the workplace, the human skills that drive great leadership have never been more important. These two came to this work from very different directions. Alma has spent more than three decades building businesses, launching brands, and leading commercial strategy for organizations including Deloitte, HBO, Paramount, and Cirque du Soleil. Today she's the founder and managing partner of REV, where she helps organizations navigate moments of growth, reinvention, and transformation. On the other hand, Eliza is a best-selling author, communication strategist, Cornell University Fellow, TED speaker and former acting instructor whose work has helped executives and leadership teams become more confident, influential communicators in the moments that matter most. What started as a conversation became a collaboration, and that collaboration became Ignite. We spend less time talking about the program itself and spend more time talking about why it exists. What are they seeing inside executive teams? Why do communication and influence seem harder than ever? And most importantly, what human skills are becoming more valuable because of AI, not despite it?

"Tenacious D" is a comedy series that premiered on HBO in 1997, starring Jack Black and Kyle Gass as fictionalized versions of themselves The show follows the duo as they chase rock & roll glory while dealing with everything from writer's block to encounters with Sasquatch. Each episode blends absurd comedy with live performances of songs that would eventually become staples of the real-life Tenacious D. Despite premiering in 1997, "Tenacious D" had an unusual run, producing just three half-hour installments that aired sporadically. The TV show may have been short-lived, but Jack and Kyle certainly weren't, as Tenacious D went on to release albums, tour the world, and eventually star in their own feature film. But does their original HBO series totally rock, or is it one gig the D would rather forget? Listen as the S1E1 boys deep dive "The Search for Inspirado / Angel in Disguise" and find out. Starring: Jack Black, Kyle Gas, Paul F Tompkins, David Cross, Laura Milligan, & Laura Kightlinger www.S1E1POD.com Instagram & X (Twitter): @S1E1POD

Dax Shepherd and Kristen Bell star in The Coney: Celebrate Detroit's Creative Spirit. Dave Landau will join us tomorrow. Merch is available if you want to rep the show. Word of mouth, brah.

Rich and the guys weigh in on the plethora of joint practices taking place around NFL training camps including the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints brawling at times, a possible season-ending injury to Chargers C Tyler Biadasz against the 49ers, and more. Seahawks WR Cooper Kupp and Rich discuss this preseason's version of HBO's ‘Hard Knocks' and what he and teammates do when they want to have a more private conversation amid all the video cameras, Seattle's mindset as they go for back-to-back Super Bowl wins, reveals what intrigues him so much about the strategic mind games aspect of football, and reflects on how he impacted Rams HC Sean McVay's career. Rich reacts to the season-ending ACL injury suffered by Houston Texans WR Jayden Higgens, and plays the ‘NFL Win-Loss Game' with a 15-year-old Philadelphia Eagles fan who really, really, REALLY doesn't care for the Dallas Cowboys.

We have so many questions after the pilot of Lanterns on HBO... First off, does John Stewart respect Hal Jordan? Or himself? How does that meat off of another man's grill even taste? These questions and more will be answered as Tatiana, Porshea, and Benhameen are back with their takes on the latest hit show from the DCU.Thank you for watching!!!
