“The Tragic Life of Classic Cinema Star Gail Russell” (082) - 4/07/2025 Hollywood legend has it that ethereal beauty GAIL RUSSELL was discovered after a Paramount Studios talent manager picked up two hitchhiking Santa Monica high school boys who told him all about the "Hedy Lamarr of Santa Monica High School." Allegedly, he then tracked down Russell at school and arranged for a screen test. The rest, as they say, is Hollywood history. If only it had been that easy. Russell, who was painfully shy and had no interest in a career as an actress was pushed in front of the camera by her ambitious mother and the executives at Paramount who saw dollar signs in her startling blue eyes. This week, we explore the life and career of one of Hollywood's most tragic beauties, GAIL RUSSELL.

“RICHARD CARLSON: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” (081) - 3/31/2025 Tall, dark-haired, and handsome, RICHARD CARLSON was always a welcomed addition to any cast. From the beginning, when he was playing preppy college students opposite LANA TURNER, to his reign in the 1950s as the King of Sci-Fi thrillers, Carlson brought believability and authority to each role but also a sense of introspective thoughtfulness. You looked into his deep blue eyes and chiseled face and believed him. Whatever he was selling, we were buying. And while he never became an A-list leading man, he enjoyed a long and steady career and enhanced many a mediocre film with his special appeal. This week, we celebrate RICHARD CARLSON as our Star of the Month.

“What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, and you say, ‘Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well’—but then you don’t give that person any food or clothing. What good does that do?” (James 2:14–16 NLT) Most people have hidden facets—skills, accomplishments, or sides of their personality that they don’t make known. Some are truly surprising. For instance, Hedy Lamarr was one of the most popular actresses of the 1940s and was often called “the most beautiful woman in film.” What most people didn’t know—and didn’t learn until after her death—is that she was also an inventor whose pioneering work led to Wi-Fi, GPS, and Bluetooth technology. Chances are, you have hidden facets, too—things about you that most people don’t know and might be surprised to learn. Your Christian faith shouldn’t be one of them. That’s the message James sends loud and clear. The Lord doesn’t intend for your Christian faith to be a private matter. He wants it to spill out in every area of your life. He wants it to splash over everyone you know and everyone you encounter. He wants your faith to make a real difference in other people’s lives—not with just your words, but with your actions as well. If you’re married, that difference-making starts with your spouse. In Ephesians 5:21–33, the apostle Paul compares the relationship between a husband and wife to the relationship between Jesus and the Church. That’s how seriously God treats marriage. And that’s the reason your spouse should see your faith in action every day, in big things and small. We’re not talking about Christian platitudes—the marital equivalent of “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well.” As James puts it so succinctly, “What good does that do?” We’re talking about tangible acts of love and sacrifice. About putting your faith into action to make your spouse’s life better—which, in turn, makes your relationship better, stronger, and more durable. You show your Christian faith in the way you use your words with your spouse. You resist the urge to criticize and complain. Instead, you look for opportunities to give sincere compliments and encouragement. You also show your faith in the way you deal with conflict. You use words not to attack or blame, but to resolve. You show your faith by listening to your spouse and offering comfort, empathy, or silence, as needed. You show it by making your spouse feel seen, heard, understood, respected, and loved unconditionally. You show your faith by sacrificing your own needs and putting your spouse’s needs first. You show your faith by being faithful—to your marriage vows, of course, but also in smaller things. In the promises you make—to finish a household chore, to pick up a kid from practice, or to go out for a date night. Make your word mean something to your spouse. And you show your faith by prioritizing God’s Word. By studying it together. By praying with and for your spouse every day. Faith in action, like charity, begins at home. Reflection question: How will you show your faith to your spouse or loved one in a tangible way this week?

Spéciale Hedy Lamarr pour la réédition de son autobiographie "Ecstasy and me", à l'occasion des 25 ans de sa disparition le 19 janvier dernier (Séguier). On en parle avec la journaliste et critique littéraire française Clémentine Goldszal qui signe la préface. Qui se souvenait d'Hedy Lamarr il y a encore quelques années, au moment de la première parution française d'Ecstasy and Me, son autobiographie explosive ? Pénélope Bagieu venait de lui consacrer un portrait dans ses Culottées, tandis que s'apprêtait à sortir en salles Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story, un documentaire produit par Susan Sarandon retraçant son incroyable destin. Depuis, l'ancienne star déchue s'est vue propulsée au rang d'icône féministe et toute une nouvelle génération s'en est emparée. À l'occasion des vingt-cinq ans de sa disparition (le 19 janvier 2000), cette réédition de ses souvenirs de cinéma entend poursuivre ce travail de résurrection. D'une plume féroce, elle y révèle les détails de son ascension fulgurante et nous plonge dans les coulisses d'un Hollywood décadent où rôdent dangers, excès et plaisirs défendus… Merci pour votre écoute Entrez sans Frapper c'est également en direct tous les jours de la semaine de 16h à 17h30 sur www.rtbf.be/lapremiere Retrouvez l'ensemble des épisodes et les émission en version intégrale (avec la musique donc) de Entrez sans Frapper sur notre plateforme Auvio.be : https://auvio.rtbf.be/emission/8521 Abonnez-vous également à la partie "Bagarre dans la discothèque" en suivant ce lien: https://audmns.com/HSfAmLDEt si vous avez apprécié ce podcast, n'hésitez pas à nous donner des étoiles ou des commentaires, cela nous aide à le faire connaître plus largement.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich sits down with Margaret Hoover to talk about his new PBS documentary “Journey to America: With Newt and Callista Gingrich,” his longstanding support for legal immigration, and the executive actions President Trump has taken in his first days in office. Amid rising Republican skepticism of all immigration, Gingrich draws a sharp distinction between legal and illegal immigration, and he explains how the stories of nine immigrants told in the documentary–including Albert Einstein, Henry Kissinger, and Hedy Lamarr–exemplify the value of legal immigration. Gingrich discusses the career of Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad, an Afghan-born immigrant who helped the Trump administration negotiate the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan with the Taliban, and he assesses America's responsibility to Afghan allies who were left behind. Reflecting on the life of Rep. Victoria Spartz, a Ukrainian immigrant, he also comments on the prospects for peace in Ukraine as Trump places new pressure on Russia. Gingrich addresses Trump's effort to redefine birthright citizenship, his refusal to enforce the TikTok ban passed by Congress, and his pardons of January 6th rioters who assaulted police officers. He also comments on whether Trump is likely to pursue investigations of former President Biden. “Journey to America: With Newt and Callista Gingrich” is streaming now on PBS.org and the PBS app. Support for “Firing Line for Margaret Hoover” is provided by Robert Granieri, Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, Peter and Mark Kalikow, The Asness Family Foundation, Charles R.

El 9 de noviembre, día del nacimiento de Hedy Lamarr, se celebra en su honor el “Día Internacional del Inventor” y es que la actriz no solo brilló en el Hollywood de los años 40 sino que destacó, aún más si cabe, en su otra faceta, la de ingeniera e inventora. En este episodio os contamos su historia. Repasamos también la carrera del director Jaime Chávarri, elegido Premio Feroz de Honor de este año, los galardones que concede la Asociación de Informadores Cinematográficos de España a lo mejor del cine y las series españolas de 2024 y cuya ceremonia se celebrará el próximo sábado 25 de enero en Pontevedra. Hemos charlado con el doctor Cesar González Mousterini sobre los retoques estéticos a los que habitualmente se someten los actores y actrices y en “Diligencia hacia el Oeste” tenemos esta semana uno de los westerns más bellos de John Ford: “Pasión de los fuertes” protagonizado por Henry Fonda y estrenado en 1946.
„Každá dívka může být okouzlující. Stačí jen stát na místě a vypadat hloupě,“ říkala hollywoodská herečka Hedy Lamarr, která se narodila ve Vídni 9. listopadu 1914 jako Hedwig Eva Maria Kiesler. Pocházela z bohaté židovské rodiny ředitele banky, který v ní prý probudil inovátorské myšlení. Už v pěti letech rozebrala a sestavila svoji hrací skříňku. Vynalézání se věnovala celý život. Proslavila ji ale filmová scéna, kde předvádí orgasmus.

Let me gently remind you of a truth that too many good souls are forgetting: distraction is the enemy of mastery. The giants of history—from Leonardo da Vinci to Mahatma Gandhi to Hedy Lamarr—were not people who dabbled. They were people who focused. Monomaniacally.They carved out sacred spaces of solitude and isolation to produce their masterwork. They honored their craft with the fullness of their presence.My latest book “The Wealth Money Can't Buy” is full of fresh ideas and original tools that I'm absolutely certain will cause quantum leaps in your positivity, productivity, wellness, and happiness.

Dr Julia Ravey and Dr Ella Hubber both have a love of science, but it turns out there's a lot they don't know about some of the leading women at the front of the inventing game. In Unstoppable, Dr Julia and Dr Ella tell each other the hidden, world-shaping stories of the engineers, innovators and inventors they wish they'd known about when they were starting out as scientists. This week, the story of the Hollywood starlet whose brilliant ideas would go on to revolutionise the way we live. Known as the ‘most beautiful woman in film' during the 1940s, Hedy Lamarr was one of the most in demand Hollywood actresses of her time. But she wasn't just a movie star. From a young age, she also had a knack for inventing – she liked to take her toys apart just to see how they worked. And she carried this passion into her adult life – creating an invention that laid the groundwork for technology many of us couldn't live without: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS. But it didn't come without struggle. Dr Julia and Dr Ella take us through Hedy's remarkable journey, and we get a first-hand look into Hedy's life from her daughter Denise Loder-DeLuca. Presenters: Dr Ella Hubber and Dr Julia Ravey Producers: Ella Hubber and Julia Ravey Assistant producer: Sophie Ormiston Editor: Holly Squire

Hi friends, happy Thursday! Did you know the person who paved the way for the invention of Wifii was one of the most controversial actresses in Hollywood? I know. Random! Today's episode is about the one, the only, Hedy Lamarr. It turns out, we owe Hedy A LOT.
