Pop culture meets hilarious chaos as Natalie and Angela throw Hollywood's biggest names onto a fictional Survivor island—and the results are anything but predictable.     This week on Put Your Books Down, Natalie Sanderson Jones and Angela Bingham kick things off by swapping favorite book recommendations before diving headfirst into a wildly entertaining game of Celebrity Survivor. From Pamela Anderson and Walton Goggins to Jason Bateman, Will Arnett, Martin Short, Stanley Tucci, and Colman Domingo, every celebrity must be voted off, saved, or chosen as the ultimate island companion.     As the game escalates, nothing is off limits. Kid actors, infamous criminals, horror villains, and iconic movie bad guys all make unexpected appearances, leading to ridiculous debates, questionable survival strategies, and nonstop laughs. It's the perfect blend of humorous commentary, pop culture references, and shared personal stories that makes every episode feel like hanging out with your funniest friends.     If you love celebrity debates, ridiculous hypotheticals, and laughing at completely unnecessary arguments, this episode is for you.    

This week, Joel is joined by comedians Dylan Adler and Liza Treyger, plus reality dating star Harry Jowsey, fresh off his run on Netflix's Let's Marry Harry. They dig into what it's actually like to date multiple people at once—how to do it without hurting anyone, and the strange etiquette of a house full of women all trying to get ready for dates on the same schedule. Harry shares stories from filming, including the small red flags that got contestants cut and what changed being the center of the show for the first time. The group also gets into resetting boundaries, jealousy, and what makes someone stand out when everyone in the room is already good-looking.   Send in your own listener questions by emailing us at intimacycoordinatorpod@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail at ‪(213) 379-9851‬‪.

With One Night Only dropping, we're deep diving into the movies that cram an entire lifetime of chaos into a single day.We kick off with the best-friend comedy where a blown rent payment turns one ordinary morning into a full-blown citywide disaster, powered by a pop star and a comedy powerhouse who we'd genuinely follow into any bad decision.Then there's the assassin thriller that never lets its very unlucky hero off a single moving train — a briefcase everyone wants, a body count that keeps climbing, and nowhere to run.Plus the harmless games night that curdles into a real murder mystery before the wine's even finished, the one-day disaster we think is secretly a perfect film, and our controversial ranking of which of these we'd actually survive if we were living inside them.TAKE THE SPILL'S WEEKLY POP CULTURE QUIZ HERE Become a Mamamia subscriber and get an all-access pass to everything we make, including exclusive podcasts and early listening, subscriber-only articles, monthly giveaways and our home workout app, MOVE.

They celebrate swimmer Hazel Hourigan’s Commonwealth Games bronze and discuss butterfly stroke, then run Scandal headlines about Nathan Fillion’s Jason Bateman autograph prank and a teased Selena/Becky collaboration. A first-time caller from Timaru chats, followed by a cautionary tale about a family losing linked Google accounts after a teen’s explicit Gemini Live incident, sparking talk of two-factor authentication.

Send us Fan MailAngelo, Rhea, and Jay are back, and this week they're leading with a number Hollywood can't stop staring at: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey stormed to a $264 million worldwide opening, and it's the first movie in history shot ENTIRELY on IMAX cameras. IMAX posted a record $52 million opening weekend and grabbed nearly a quarter of the entire domestic box office — the third-best share ever, behind only Nolan's own Interstellar and Oppenheimer. Is all-IMAX the future of movies, or does the fact that it can't scale prove the exact opposite?THEN: Off Angelo's Power Ballad review comes the debate that splits the room: Paul Rudd and Jason Bateman might be the same actor. Same lane, same dry everyman charm, same squeaky-clean off-screen reputation, with only a couple of exceptions each (Bateman went dark with Ozark, Rudd went blockbuster with Ant-Man). Two of the most bulletproof nice guys in the business — but who's actually had the better career? And who else lives in the "same character every single role" club?ALL THAT PLUS: VPNs explained, British Corner, and much MUCH more!MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPONSOR: Steven Singer Jewelers!The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes.

Joel sits down with an all-bisexual panel — Trayvon Free, Ian Fidance, and Kat Bird — to dig into the stereotypes that follow bisexual people around (too greedy, secretly gay, just experimenting), the specific stigma bisexual men face versus bisexual women, and what it felt like to come out on their own timelines. The conversation covers dating across the gender spectrum, getting fetishized, getting razzed by other comics, and not quite fitting neatly into gay or straight spaces.

Michael Lewis went looking for the people holding this country together and found something he didn't expect — not just competence, but a kind of devotion so pure it made him want to keep writing about it. In the second episode of our Unsung series, Kelly sits down with one of the greatest storytellers alive to talk about what he's discovered inside the federal government, why the material keeps pulling him back, and what it means to dedicate your life to a problem nobody else thought was worth solving. Also: the story of how a one-man play about his daughter came to be — and why actor Jason Bateman was involved before Michael had written a single word. This episode was recorded in front of a live audience at Partnership for Public Service. Check out Michael's book Who Is Government?

This episode features Travis Chappell and producer Eric discussing an insightful clip from actor Jason Bateman about his complicated relationship with money growing up as a child actor. Using Bateman's story as a jumping-off point, they explore how financial confidence is built through developing valuable skills, why your relationship with money matters more than most people realize, and how investing in yourself creates opportunities that compound for life. On this episode we talk about: Jason Bateman's perspective on earning money and developing financial confidence as a child actor Why your relationship with money shapes your financial future How mastering a high-income skill creates long-term security and freedom The importance of investing in yourself before investing in assets The opportunities and risks of children growing up in the age of social media and AI Top 3 Takeaways Financial confidence doesn't come from having money—it comes from knowing you can create more through valuable skills. Treat money like a relationship instead of an object by giving it purpose, direction, and opportunities to grow. Investing in high-income skills like sales, marketing, or other in-demand abilities creates leverage that lasts a lifetime. Notable Quotes "If more people thought about money as a relationship, they would probably have more of it." "Before your money can make you money, your time has to make you money."

Joel Kim Booster is joined by comedians Usama Siddiquee (Funny AF with Kevin Hart runner-up, Usama Bin Laughing), Rachel Wolfson (Jackass, Rachel Interrupted), and Felicia Folkes (Funny AF with Kevin Hart top-ten finalist) to unpack how their families shaped — and warped — their approach to sex, love, and dating. They swap the worst relationship advice their parents ever gave them (location-sharing paranoia, "never let your man know where you are," marry-by-23 ultimatums), debate whether waiting to sleep together actually matters, and get into how cultural upbringing colors everything from jealousy to attraction.   Send in your own listener questions by emailing us at intimacycoordinatorpod@gmail.com or leave us a voicemail at ‪(213) 379-9851‬‪.

n this week's episode, we're reviewing Bad Words, the 2014 dark comedy where Jason Bateman plays Guy Trilby — a bitter, foul-mouthed adult man who finds a loophole in the rules and crashes a national spelling bee like the world's angriest eighth grader. Why? Revenge, abandonment issues, and apparently a deep need to emotionally scar children one word at a time. We dig into Bateman's directorial debut, the movie's uncomfortable humor, Catherine Hahn's chaotic journalist energy, Rohan Chand's surprisingly delightful performance as Chaitanya, and whether Guy's tiny little redemption arc is enough to make him lovable… or just slightly less awful. Along the way, we talk spelling bee trauma, bad parenting, wildly inappropriate jokes, questionable hotel room decisions, and why this movie somehow manages to be cringeworthy, funny, mean-spirited, and oddly heartfelt all at once. So grab your flashcards, lower your moral standards, and whatever you do…just don't look at us.

TV weatherman Clark Forrest convinces his friend and ASL interpreter to sign up for an anonymous hook-up app to spice up his life. Floyd Smernitch is cash-strapped, overweight, and dealing with his distant wife and troubled stepson. But after joining DTF St. Louis, Floyd's body is discovered in a pool house after a late-night rendezvous. Investigators examine Clark's relationship with Floyd's wife Carol, which leads to more questions about the sex lives and personalities of the suburbanites.

Jason Bateman, David Harbour, and Linda Cardellini star in the HBO Original “DTF St. Louis.” The series combines dark comedy and mystery with a meditation on the quiet desperation of middle-aged people.
