Wenn Sie sich gerade wieder mit Ihrer Kuscheldecke, einem guten Glas Rotwein und einer von innen wärmenden Vorfreude auf Ihren wöchentlichen Genuss der Baywatch-Berlin-Folgenbeschreibung gefreut haben, muss ich Sie dieses Mal leider enttäuschen. Ja, es gab mal eine Zeit, in der dies hier ein Ort der kreativen Entfaltung war, ein freier Raum voller ungezügelter Ideen & rhetorischer Kniffe & des vielschichtigen Humors. Diese Zeit ist nun leider vorbei – Thomas Schmitt hat diesem Format, beginnend in KW 50, eine neue Sachlichkeit verordnet, weil „man ja in der Kackbeschreibung einfach nie erfährt, worum es in der Folge geht“. Andere Stimmen entgegneten: „Das liest doch sowieso kein einziges Arschloch & wir geben uns nur Mühe damit, um nicht komplett zu verblöden.“ Hier stand also Aussage gegen Aussage & heraus kam der Beschluss: Wir probieren es mal informativer. Dass der nüchternen Aufzählung der tatsächlich besprochenen Themen auch ein gewisser Humor innewohnt, mag vielleicht dem ein oder anderen den Übergang erleichtern. Gesprächsthemen der aktuellen Folge: • Jakob will Gitarre lernen, um den toten Klaas auf seiner Beerdigung zu blamieren. • Klaas hat eine Tüte mit Katzenscheiße im Hausflur vergessen. • Thomas Schmitt plant eine Oben-ohne-Karriere als Teufelsgeiger. • Jakob führt ein geisteskrank aufwändiges „Geruchstheater“ auf. • Irgendeine Oma hat eine Hummel erschlagen & gemeinsam schwelgt man in Erinnerungen an tolle Kindergeburtstage beim Patronenhülsensammeln auf dem Truppenübungsplatz.

Zach sits down with Kristan and Brook Seaford, a couple whose marriage was transformed overnight when Kristan contracted a rare and catastrophic infection in 2013. What began as strep throat and the flu quickly escalated into pneumonia, sepsis, organ failure, septic shock, and ultimately the loss of both hands, one foot, and part of the other—a 108-day medical ordeal across six hospitals that changed her life and their family forever. But what unfolds in this interview is not just a medical story—it's a relationship story. Kristan describes the grief of returning home to a toddler who no longer recognized her, the ache of losing the physical abilities that once defined her identity, and the spiritual shift from fierce independence to complete dependence on God. Brook shares his own transformation as the family's roles flipped overnight—learning to parent five children, run a home he once took for granted, and support a partner rebuilding her life. Together, Kristan and Brook talk about humor as survival, forgiveness as practice, community as a lifeline, and the unexpected gifts that emerged from unimaginable loss. They explore how their affection, partnership, and independence have evolved, how they've adapted to enjoy life together in new ways, and how their children have grown stronger, more empathetic, and more capable because of what their family lived through. Kristan now speaks publicly about resilience, faith, and healing—and this conversation demonstrates the courage and compassion at the heart of her work. Key Takeaways A medical miracle and a marital transformation – Kristan survived sepsis and organ failure, losing limbs but gaining a deeper sense of gratitude, faith, and purpose. Roles reversed overnight – Brook shifted from traditional breadwinner to full-time caregiver and household manager, discovering new respect for the invisible labor of parenting and home life. Anger and grief show up differently – She grieved deeply but rarely felt anger; he felt anger for her, mourning all that had been taken from someone he loved. Rebuilding attachment takes intention – Their 13-month-old daughter was terrified when Kristan came home—so Kristan slept on the nursery floor for months to rebuild their bond. Humor is holy – Dark humor and playful banter became a coping mechanism for both the trauma and the awkward social moments that followed. The story shaped their kids – Their five children grew more independent, responsible, and compassionate as they adapted to new family rhythms. Partnership evolves – Though physical limitations changed what activities they can share, they now intentionally seek “new fun” together—breweries, museums, comedy clubs, creative classes, and cruises instead of scuba diving. Her disability makes her a better counselor – Kristan says she isn't a good mom, wife, or therapist despite what happened—but in many ways because of it. Guest Info Kristan Seaford Speaker, therapist, author, and survivor. Kristan shares her story of catastrophic illness, limb loss, resilience, and faith through her counseling practice and speaking engagements. Learn more at https://www.kristanseaford.com/.

This week, I'm hanging out with Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, guitarist, and all-around creative engine behind Bowling For Soup, as he looks back on three decades of pop-punk chaos, catchy hooks, and perfectly timed humor.  We get into how the band balances goofy songs with genuine heartfelt moments, why “Belgium” keeps reinventing itself, and how BFS ended up becoming a Radio Disney staple. Jaret talks about the band's wide-ranging covers—from Miley Cyrus to Hanson to Taylor Swift—our shared love of power ballads (including his personal top three), and how he wound up becoming the voice of Chuck E. Cheese. We also dig into the impact of the band's Grammy nomination, collaborations with Blues Traveler, The Dollyrots, and Bret Michaels of Poison, the long-running “Stacy's Mom” misconception, and the real story behind “1985,” SR-71, and Butch Walker. Jaret also breaks down what it was like writing a song for Alexa Bliss and teaming up with WWE for the music video.  Whether you've been blasting BFS since the '90s (when they had horns) or you're discovering their world for the first time, this episode delivers laughs, nostalgia, and a glimpse at what's next for the band in 2026 and beyond!

Today I'm diving into The Final Girls (2015)—a comedic slasher film that somehow mixes heart, horror tropes, meta humor, and summer camp chaos into one unforgettable experience. What happens when characters get trapped inside a slasher movie and suddenly have to obey all the genre rules? Well… things get messy in the best possible way.In this spoiler-lite review, I break down what works, what surprised me, and why this hidden gem immediately became one of my favorite meta-horror films of the last decade. From the clever twist on classic slasher logic to the unexpectedly emotional relationship at the story's core, this movie delivers far more than its premise suggests.In this episode:

The holidays are here, and there's no better way to kick off the season than revisiting one of the greatest Christmas movies ever made — Home Alone. But this time, we're not just watching Kevin defend his house with paint cans, micro machines, and blowtorches. We're diving deep into what this classic can teach us about Emotional Intelligence, resilience, family dynamics, and how to navigate chaos with clarity.In today's 20-minute episode, The Shadows Podcast breaks down why Home Alone still hits home emotionally more than 30 years after its release. Beneath the comedy and iconic booby traps is a powerful story about courage, belonging, fear, forgiveness, and the emotional messiness that comes with being part of a family — even a wildly dysfunctional one.We open by stepping back into 1990, a year of cultural shifts, global tension, and cinematic magic. Home Alone premiered on November 16, 1990, and instantly became a box office juggernaut — holding the #1 spot for weeks and becoming the highest-grossing live-action comedy for nearly two decades. Today, it's more than nostalgia. It's a reminder that sometimes life throws chaos at us… and we still have the power to choose our response.Then we look at the McCallister family with a humorous EQ lens:✨ A full house of stress, ego, impatience, bad communication, questionable parenting choices (they forgot this kid twice), and a brother who downs Pepsi, wets the bed, and everyone just… accepts it.✨ A kid desperate to feel seen.✨ An old man judged entirely on rumor.✨ And two burglars who are somehow both terrifying and hilariously bad at their jobs.But hidden in all that dysfunction are lessons we can use in our daily lives.Each week on The Shadows Podcast, we give you practical tools — “cheat codes” — that you can actually use in real life. Today's episode breaks Home Alone into three actionable, easy-to-apply Emotional Intelligence lessons:Kevin didn't choose the chaos — but he chose the response.Life hits us with our own versions of paint cans, icy stairs, and unexpected blowtorches. This section explores how creativity, composure, and emotional regulation help us turn overwhelm into problem-solving power.Kevin was terrified of Old Man Marley because of the story he told himself. When they finally talk, Kevin realizes Marley isn't a monster — he's a human dealing with regret and loneliness. We explore how changing your perspective can change your relationships.Kevin goes from “I'm scared” to “This is my house, and I have to defend it.” This is a mindset shift we all need. Whether you're facing holiday stress, work conflict, or personal goals, confidence and self-trust are the foundation.Because this 20-minute episode gives you:• A nostalgic escape• A psychological breakdown of holiday stress• Tangible EQ skills you can apply immediately• A new way to watch a beloved Christmas classic• Humor, heart, and real-life emotional insightsWhether you're traveling, wrapping gifts, hiding from your relatives, or recovering from a burnt turkey, this episode will help you laugh, reflect, and navigate the season with more clarity and intention.
