Welcome to another episode of The Video Store Podcast. This week I am recommending four movies about undercover work. That can mean a lot of things in movies. Sometimes it is a young cop trying to prove himself. Sometimes it is a guy returning to a place where everyone already knows him. Sometimes it is a job that starts out dangerous and then gets worse because the people doing it begin to lose track of who they are supposed to be.I have always liked this kind of story because it gives crime movies a built in problem right away. The person at the center has to lie, but the lie only works if part of it feels true. That is where these movies live. None of them treat undercover work as clean or especially clever. It is usually sweaty, stressful, and bad for everyone involved.No Man's Land (1987)No Man's Land stars D. B. Sweeney as a young cop who goes undercover to get inside a Porsche theft ring run by Charlie Sheen. It was directed by Peter Werner and written by Dick Wolf, which is a little interesting now because most people probably connect Wolf with Law and Order and television crime stories. Here he is working in a very eighties lane, with stolen sports cars, Los Angeles money, and Charlie Sheen doing the smooth rich kid criminal thing.This is not the deepest movie on the shelf, but it has a good setup and a lot of period texture. The car stuff helps. A crime ring built around stolen Porsches feels very much of its moment, and the movie understands the appeal of that world even while it is showing you the danger underneath it. Sweeney is good as someone who is not quite ready for the assignment, and Sheen is believable as the guy who makes bad choices look attractive.The cast also includes Randy Quaid, M. Emmet Walsh, Lara Harris, and Bill Duke. I always like when Bill Duke shows up in something, and in this week's lineup he shows up twice, once here as an actor and later as the director of Deep Cover (1992). That was not the reason I picked these four, but it is a nice bit of video store shelf connection.State of Grace (1990)State of Grace stars Sean Penn as Terry Noonan, an undercover cop who returns to Hell's Kitchen and reconnects with the people he grew up with. The problem is that those people are now tied into the Irish mob, and some of them still see him as one of their own. That makes the undercover part more personal than usual. He is not just pretending to belong. In some ways, he already did.The cast is a big part of the reason to watch this one. Ed Harris is controlled and cold as Frankie Flannery, Gary Oldman is all nerves and damage as Jackie, and Robin Wright gives the movie more emotional weight than it would have had with a thinner version of that role. John Turturro and John C. Reilly are in there too, which gives the movie one of those casts where you keep noticing people before they became more familiar.It was directed by Phil Joanou, written by Dennis McIntyre, shot by Jordan Cronenweth, and scored by Ennio Morricone. That is a lot of strong names attached to a movie that never became as famous as it probably should have. Part of the problem is timing. It came out in 1990, the same year as Goodfellas, and that is a tough shadow for any New York crime movie to stand in. State of Grace is not Goodfellas, and it is not trying to be. Rush (1991)Rush is a heavier version of the undercover story. Jason Patric and Jennifer Jason Leigh play narcotics officers working a drug case in 1970s Texas, and the movie is less interested in the mechanics of the investigation than in what the job does to them. It is about crossing lines, then having trouble finding those lines again.The movie was directed by Lili Fini Zanuck and based on Kim Wozencraft's novel, which was inspired by her own time as an undercover narcotics officer. Pete Dexter wrote the screenplay, and the cast includes Sam Elliott, Max Perlich, and Gregg Allman. That last bit always makes the movie feel slightly stranger on paper than it plays on screen, because Allman fits into the world of the movie pretty naturally.Rush is not a casual watch. Jason Patric was very good in this period at playing men who seem like they have already made peace with ruining themselves, and Jennifer Jason Leigh makes her character's slide feel believable without turning it into a big speech. Eric Clapton did the music, and the soundtrack became better known than the movie in some circles because of Tears in Heaven. The film itself is rougher and less sentimental than people might expect from that association.Deep Cover (1992)Deep Cover stars Laurence Fishburne, still credited here as Larry Fishburne, as a police officer recruited by the DEA to go undercover in Los Angeles. Jeff Goldblum plays the lawyer and criminal operator he gets close to, and Goldblum gives the movie a different kind of villain than the usual street level dealer. He is funny, polished, and awful in a way that feels very specific to him.This was directed by Bill Duke, and it is one of the best undercover crime movies of the period. It has the shape of a genre film, but it is also angry about the systems around the drug war. Fishburne is excellent because he never plays the character as a cool movie cop enjoying the danger. He looks like someone being hollowed out by the job, which makes the movie more interesting as it goes along.The title song is also a major part of the movie's history. Deep Cover was Dr. Dre's debut solo single and introduced a lot of listeners to Snoop Doggy Dogg. That song has lived on in a big way, but the movie deserves to be remembered right alongside it. It is sharp, stylish, and still feels a little mean around the edges.All four of these movies are about people who are supposed to keep their identities separate, and none of them are very good at it for long. No Man's Land (1987) gives you the flashy version with stolen cars and rich criminals. State of Grace (1990) makes it about old friends and old wounds. Rush (1991) turns the assignment into something punishing and personal. Deep Cover (1992) takes the undercover story and pushes it into something colder and more political.If I were standing behind the counter this week, these are the four I would point you toward. They are not all doing the same thing, but they belong together on the same rental stack. Undercover movies work best when the job stops being just a job, and each of these gets there in its own way.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

What do you get when you combine Vegas gambling drama, illegal cockfighting, Garth Brooks' billion-dollar music catalog, talking pets, celebrity chaos, and a healthy dose of completely unnecessary arguments? You get another perfectly normal day on The Rizzuto Show.In Episode 201, the crew dives into one of the wildest casino stories we've heard in a long time. A woman hits a jackpot in Pennsylvania, the lights flash, the bells ring, everyone celebrates... and then the police show up. Turns out she had voluntarily banned herself from casinos years earlier, creating one of the strangest gambling situations imaginable. Did she deserve the money? Should the casino have stopped her before she ever played? The debate gets surprisingly heated.From there, things somehow get even weirder. We head out to Nevada, where authorities busted a massive illegal cockfighting operation involving hundreds of birds, stacks of cash, and enough bizarre details to make everyone question humanity for a few minutes. Naturally, the crew also dives into the strange history of cockfighting and how it somehow became one of the oldest spectator sports in human history.As if that wasn't enough, the conversation takes a hard left turn into pet territory. If you could ask your dog or cat one question and get a real answer, what would it be? Are they happy? Do they secretly judge us? Are they plotting something? The gang spends far more time than anyone should discussing the emotional lives of household pets, and honestly, it might be the most important topic of the day.Meanwhile, Garth Brooks may be sitting on a music catalog worth up to $2 billion, which sparks a conversation about legendary artists cashing out. Bruce Springsteen, Queen, and now potentially Garth could be changing the future of music ownership forever.Plus, Lern delivers another packed Crap on Celebrities featuring Taylor Swift wedding rumors, Jeff Goldblum coming to St. Louis, Sydney Sweeney's upcoming Sleepy Hollow project, Mama June updates nobody asked for, Netflix documentaries, TV cancellations, celebrity birthdays, and one of the greatest collections of music mashups you'll hear all week.This daily comedy show proves once again that no topic is too ridiculous, no celebrity gossip is too random, and no argument is too dumb to spend twenty minutes discussing. If you're looking for a daily comedy show packed with weird news, pop culture commentary, hilarious debates, and the kind of chaos only The Rizzuto Show can deliver, you've come to the right place.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week, we continue our favorite "bad" action movies with a visit to the Hotel Artemis, a near-future dystopian flick with a convoluted plot, varying levels of quality in its action sequences, and cheesy dialogue. Plus a stacked cast that includes Sterling K. Brown, Jodie Foster, Dave Bautista, Brian Tyree Henry, Sofia Boutella, Charlie Day, Zachary Quinto, and Jeff Goldblum. Hotel Artemis was written and directed by Drew Pearce.
Breaking Barriers: Krissy and Nathan Strap In for The Right StuffWelcome to this episode of The Most Excellent 80s Movies Show. Hosts Krissy Lenz and Nathan Blackwell strap in for Philip Kaufman's sweeping 1983 epic The Right Stuff — a film so genuinely, stubbornly good that it nearly breaks their ability to snark about it.The central tension here isn't between astronauts and gravity — it's between Krissy and Nathan and a movie that refuses to be easily summed up. With an extraordinary ensemble (Ed Harris, Dennis Quaid, Sam Shepard, Fred Ward, Jeff Goldblum, and at least ten more "wait, is that—?" faces), The Right Stuff sprawls across three hours and twelve minutes like a prestige mini-series that never quite got the memo it was a movie. The hosts dig into what makes it so entertaining moment to moment — the absurdist testing sequences, Goldblum perpetually racing in with news everyone already has, and the quiet, earned power of Ed Harris telling the Vice President to back off his wife.What you get here is two people genuinely wrestling with a film they admire deeply, laughing at the bits that deserve laughs and getting a little misty at the bits that earn it. The conversation is premise-level — no endings spoiled, no surprises given away — just an honest, warmhearted debate about what holds this sprawling, magnificent beast together.TruStory FM | Membership (early, ad-free access + bonus content): Join | Socials: Facebook | Instagram | Bluesky | Learn more about the hosts: Neighborhood Comedy Theatre | Squishy StudiosIf you could only keep one scene from The Right Stuff, what would it be — and why? ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

We've officially crossed the halfway mark of our Space MAYhem marathon, and the fatigue is real, but the energy is high! We are still pushing through our single-day recording marathon, and for movie number three, we are throwing it back to the absolute gold standard of 90s summer blockbusters: Roland Emmerich's 1996 explosive spectacle, Independence Day.To survive this round of the marathon, we are shaking up a cocktail as on fire as the movie itself: Mackenzie's "Victory Cigar Old Fashioned"- a sweet and smoked take on a classic, that smells exactly like an alien mothership going down in flames.This week, we bask in the peak-90s charisma of Will Smith punching aliens in the face, Jeff Goldblum using a 1995 PowerBook to take down a technologically superior civilization with a literal computer virus, and Bill Pullman delivering one of the greatest cinematic speeches of all time. We laugh at the glorious absurdity of the science, marvel at the practical effects that still look better than most modern CGI, and debate whether there is a single better scene in cinema history than Judd Hirsch complaining about his lawyer while the world ends.If you want to hear us get deeply nostalgic about the peak era of popcorn cinema while we slowly lose our minds on hour six-ish of our recording day, this is the episode for you. We're blending our childhood love for this blockbuster giant with our usual vibes, making this the most explosive stop yet on our Space MAYhem itinerary. Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming up.

Welcome to The DMF — Discovering Meaning in Film and Acting. I'm Justin Younts, and this is part two with casting director Tiffany Little Canfield of Telsey Company.This one gets into the specific casting stories behind some of the biggest films Tiffany has worked on — and she doesn't hold back. We talk about how Cynthia Erivo was cast as Elphaba, how Ariana Grande landed the role of Glinda, Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible, Jeff Goldblum as The Wizard, and Bowen Yang. We also get into the casting of A Most Violent Year, Miss Sloane, and Margin Call.Tiffany also shares her thoughts on AI and storytelling — why she doesn't believe technology will ever replicate what a human can convey in a moment, especially in the room. We talk about the art of auditioning, staying in character, and what it looks like to work inside the Telsey office on projects of this scale.In this episode we discuss:The casting of Wicked and the stories behind each roleHow Ariana Grande was cast as GlindaCasting Cynthia Erivo, Michelle Yeoh & Jeff GoldblumCasting A Most Violent Year, Miss Sloane & Margin CallAI and the future of human storytellingThe art of auditioning and staying presentWhat it's like working at Telsey on major productions00:00:00 - Introduction & AI in Storytelling 00:00:37 - The Art of Auditioning 00:01:33 - Staying in Character 00:02:21 - Working with Telsey Office 00:03:37 - Casting 'A Most Violent Year' 00:10:11 - Casting 'Miss Sloan' 00:12:54 - Casting 'Margin Call' 00:15:14 - Casting 'Wicked' 00:15:38 - Casting Cynthia Erivo as Elphaba 00:15:47 - Casting Michelle Yeoh as Madame Morrible 00:19:03 - Casting Ariana Grande as Glinda 00:26:44 - Casting Jeff Goldblum as The Wizard 00:29:11 - Casting Bowen Yang#DMF #TiffanyLittleCanfield #CastingDirector #Wicked #ArianaGrande #MichelleYeoh #CynthiaErivo #JeffGoldblum #TelseyCompany #Acting #Casting #Podcast

We return this week to kick off our "Terrible Movies We Love" month, which is exactly as it says on the tin. We begin with Van Helsing, Stephen Sommers' bizarre attempt to bring Universal monsters into the franchise era. Starring Hugh Jackman in the TITULAR ROLE as monster-hunter Gabriel Van Helsing, with Richard Roxburgh chewing the scenery as Count Dracula and Kate Beckinsale's inexplicable accent as Anna Valarious, Van Helsing is both one of the worst films of the 00s, and wonderfully entertaining. Next week is Hotel Artemis, which I'm reliably informed has Jeff Goldblum in it.
Award-winning actor Jeff Goldblum talks to MS NOW's Ari Melber in this candid, sprawling and sometimes goofy conversation, as the two discuss Goldblum's work with directors such as Steven Spielberg and Wes Anderson, his many iconic roles, what he loves about jazz, and having his “weirdness” affirmed.

80s/90s Comedy/Music/Satire Icon Julie Brown joins us and prepare to mop up some tea! Just exactly how did Julie Brown become an MTV trend setter? She made fun of the videos. Fans loved it and the frenzy gave rise to Julie's very own show, Just Say Julie. We head back to an innocent age when it was still ridiculously ludicrous for the homecoming queen to have a gun. Then we explore the inspiration for Julie's first film, Earth Girls Are Easy. Getting it made, however, was difficult. Julie starred with Gina Davis, Jeff Goldblum and Jim Carrey and the film launched the music videos, Cause I'm A Blonde and I Like ‘Em Big And Stupid. Next, inspired by the outrageous stories she'd hear from friends who had worked with Madonna, Julie parodied Madonna's self absorbed doc-noir, Truth Or Dare, with Medusa: Dare To Be Truthful. We talk about Attack Of The 5'2” Women, with a cameo by our own Lisa Arch, in which Julie roasts headline hogs Tanya Harding and Lorena Bobbitt and we compare notes on 100 Things To Do Before High School on which Julie wrote and Lisa played Principal Hader. And finally, we unleash a rousing round of IMDB Roulette where the wheel stops at Happy Days, The Jeffersons, Newhart, Laverne and Shirley, The Incredible Shrinking Woman, Shakes The Clown, The Middle and Camp Rock. Plus, Weezy and Lisa are recommending and discussing Trust Me: The False Prophet on Netflix.

This week, we review Isle of Dogs (2018), Wes Anderson's gloriously quirky stop-motion animated sci-fi comedy-drama set in a dystopian near-future Japan. Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Jeff Goldblum, and Bob Balaban star as a ragtag pack of exiled dogs in a story that explores loyalty, rebellion, and political corruption. With all of Megasaki City's canines banished to a garbage-dump called Trash Island following a government-enforced decree, twelve-year-old Atari crash-lands on the island in search of his beloved dog Spots — and sets off an epic journey that could change the fate of dogs everywhere. This film raises intriguing questions about authoritarianism, prejudice, and what it truly means to be man's best friend.Is Isle of Dogs a ruff deal or the paw-fect film?

Only our second David Cronenberg after “Crimes of the Future”, we dive into “The Fly”: the tropey writing, the B-movie plot outline done at an A-list scale with top-notch hair and makeup, and why we all walked away with different ratings for the movie.

April's almost over but we're not done talking all things comedy just yet: We present to you an exclusive, long-in-the-making tribute and retrospect on '50s TV host, visual gag perfectionist & awe-inspiring comedian ERNIE KOVACS. Who knew that Jack Lemmon was part of the Nairobi Trio? What influence did Kovacs' abnormal style have on Kids in the Hall, Monty Python, MST3k, Pee-Wee Herman, Mr. Show & even Conan O'Brien? Aside from Kovacs, how did Edward R. Murrow, Tex Avery, Andy Kaufman, Stan Freberg, David and Amy Sedaris & Mike Nesmith change the realm of meta-humor possibilities? We also share trivia, a review of his TV biopic movie starring Jeff Goldblum & where you can get his CD recordings/DVDs!

In this episode of the Proper True Yarn Podcast, Beau Jones and Jordan Abbey Young break down acting school from the inside, what it actually teaches you, what it doesn't, and why most people misunderstand how acting careers really work.The conversation centres around their time at the New York Film Academy on the Gold Coast, back when it operated out of the Movie World studios. The boys explain that while acting can't really be “taught” in a traditional sense, being immersed on real sets teaches you the most important skills of all. Where to stand, how cameras see you, how marks work, and how not to be a liability on set.They talk honestly about the chaos of acting school. Big egos, strange personalities, wild rumours, and the reality that anyone could enrol, which meant a mix of people chasing lifelong dreams and others just dabbling for fun. Drama school, in every sense of the word.The episode also dives into the strange hierarchy of the film industry. One year you're being coached by someone, the next year you might have more screen credits than them. Beau and Jordan explain why humility, consistency, and being easy to work with matter more than talent alone.They share surreal moments from studying alongside major productions like Thor: Ragnarok, casually seeing Jeff Goldblum walking past during lunch, and learning a simple rule that stuck with them more than any acting technique ever did: don't be a cunt.The conversation expands into why acting classes can actually be valuable for anyone, not just performers. Confidence, communication, handling pressure, and getting out of your own head are skills that transfer into every part of life.It's honest, funny, self-aware, and pulls the curtain back on an industry that looks glamorous from the outside but is chaotic, political, and brutally unforgiving underneath.If you're into behind-the-scenes film stories, acting school realities, creative careers, or conversations that cut through the bullshit, this episode delivers.Straight talk, zero romance, and plenty of proper laughs. A proper true yarn about learning the hard way.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Someone tried to harvest Christian's voice for AI training. The pitch was polished, the project sounded real. But when she responded with ten professional questions, the conversation ended. Permanently.In this Deep Dive on Episode 275, Christian connects that experience to her conversation with Erik and Christopher Ewers, the brothers behind the PBS documentary Henry David Thoreau. Chris Ewers argues that every technological revolution has felt like the end of the world — the Industrial Revolution, digital cameras, and now AI. Each time the tool became indispensable. Then Christian pulls in Thoreau himself — the man who railed against the railroad and then rode the train 70 times. He used the tool deliberately.In this episode, you'll hear:The full story of the suspicious voice-over job offer and the ten questions that ended it.Why Christian's VO business is declining while her filmmaking and podcasting are thriving.Chris Ewers's case for why AI is the digital camera revolution all over again.Thoreau's “cost of a thing” quote and why it hits differently in the age of AI.The contradiction of Thoreau and the train — and what “live deliberately” actually means now.Jeff Goldblum at the mic and George Clooney saying “tell me if I suck” — what AI will never replace.Timestamps:0:00 What George Clooney Told the Directors0:18 Show open0:28 The Ethan Caldwell story2:33 Where I stand with AI3:49 The Ewers Brothers and the revolution that always comes5:09 Clip: Chris Ewers on AI and the digital camera revolution7:15 Thoreau, technology, and the train he swore he'd never ride9:25 What “live deliberately” actually means9:44 What Ethan Caldwell's silence reveals10:45 Goldblum, Clooney, and what machines can't replicate11:59 ClosingListen & Follow:Apple Podcasts: tinyurl.com/DocFirstAppleSpotify: tinyurl.com/DocFirstSpotifyYouTube: tinyurl.com/DocFirstYouTubeAmazon Music: tinyurl.com/DocFirstAmazonSupport the show on Patreon: tinyurl.com/DocFirstPatreonAbout the Guests (from DF Episode 275):Erik Ewers: Director, Editor.

What's Jeff Goldblum listening to?
Even with Ken Burns and Don Henley attached, funding a PBS documentary is brutal. So what hope do the rest of us have?Erik and Christopher Ewers get real about PBS funding, AI's impact on filmmaking, and how they landed George Clooney, Jeff Goldblum, Ted Danson, Tate Donovan and Meryl Streep for their new PBS documentary Henry David Thoreau.In Part 2 of this conversation, the Ewers Brothers open up about the financial realities of documentary funding, even with Ken Burns and Don Henley attached, why Chris sees AI as the next revolution instead of the apocalypse, how broadcast is giving way to streaming, and the stories behind casting some of Hollywood's biggest voices. This is Part 2 of a two-part conversation.In Part 2, you'll learn:— Why having Ken Burns and Don Henley as executive producers doesn't make funding easy and who actually made the Thoreau film possible— Chris's case for why AI is the digital camera revolution all over again, not the death of filmmaking— The best professional advice Chris ever received and why it will never change— How Chris kept his mouth shut on a commercial set with Jeff Goldblum and how that silence led to Goldblum voicing Thoreau— The story of how Don Henley quietly recruited George Clooney as narrator and Clooney's reaction when asked how long he'd known Henley— Ken Burns's advice on directing Meryl Streep: “You don't.”— How streaming is changing episode length and why “the director's cut” isn't what it used to be.— Erik's approach to pre-planning edit cuts for PBS broadcast time slots without sacrificing the story— Why Ken Burns treats his mentorship like tough love — and why Erik is grateful for it— One thing filmmakers need to know about getting a documentary on PBSTimestamps:0:00 Introduction1:21 Unpacking the Thoreauvian mindset2:46 Thoreau's prescience on consumerism3:50 Erik on Thoreau's “cost of life” quote and the iPhone4:40 Thoreau and the birth of the Industrial Revolution6:03 Christian's advice: think from the end back6:50 Chris on the state of the industry — Industrial Revolution to AI10:20 Christian: as a voice actor, AI is a challenge10:53 The best professional advice Chris ever received11:36 Christian on the struggle to fund the next film12:54 Money is always the biggest hurdle13:15 How the Ewers Brothers fund PBS docs without federal money14:49 Ken Burns's two binders of rejection letters15:07 The Movies That Made Us — encouragement for indie filmmakers16:26 The reality: it's hard for everybody17:52 Erik on Ken Burns's legacy projects and the privilege of the brand20:58 Erik on earning the gift — Ken's tough love mentorship22:00 Broadcast vs. streaming — why episode length is changing23:52 Erik's editing strategy for PBS time slots25:37 Celebrity voice talent — how they landed Jeff Goldblum27:43 Don Henley's connections — Ted Danson and Meryl Streep29:09 The George Clooney reveal — “If Don Henley calls, you say yes”30:43 What it's like to direct celebrity voice talent30:55 Jeff Goldblum in the booth — pure instinct31:26 Ken Burns's advice on directing Meryl Streep31:52 George Clooney: “Tell me if I suck”32:42 DocuVue Deja Vu — Erik's picks and Chris's all-time favoriteDocuView DejaVu Picks:Erik Ewers: Crumb (1994), Hearts of Darkness: A Filmmaker's Apocalypse (1991), Jiro Dreams of Sushi (2011), The Thin Blue Line (1988)Christopher Loren Ewers: Man on Wire (2008)Christian Taylor: Buy Now: The Shopping Conspiracy (Netflix, 2024)This episode is supported by Virgil Films Entertainment.About the Guests:Erik Ewers — Director, Editor.

He edited nearly every Ken Burns film since The Civil War. He still didn't know who he was.Henry David Thoreau wrote that most people lead lives of “quiet desperation.” But what did he actually mean - and what does it look like inside a successful career?That's the question Christian Taylor explores in this episode of Documentary First: The Deep Dive, after her conversation with Erik and Christopher Ewers—two brothers who just directed a three-part, three-hour PBS documentary on Thoreau. The film is narrated by George Clooney, with Jeff Goldblum voicing Thoreau, Ted Danson as Emerson, and Meryl Streep voicing several women in Thoreau's life. It's executive produced by Ken Burns and Don Henley.What struck Christian wasn't the star-studded cast or the prestige credentials. It was a quiet confession from Erik - Ken Burns's senior editor for 33 years - who admitted that despite decades of career confidence, he didn't really know himself. He described himself as “lost and wayward.” And it was his own documentary about youth mental illness that finally woke him up.That led Christian back to Thoreau's famous line and to a realization: Thoreau wasn't describing unhappy people. He was describing people who don't even know they're suffering. People whose competence has become the hiding place.What You'll Learn:Why competence can mask a total lack of self-knowledge - for decadesWhat Thoreau actually meant by “quiet desperation” (it's not what most people think)How Erik Ewers's own documentary became the mirror that showed him himselfThe connection between Thoreau's grief, Christian's grief, and the impulse to strip life down to what's realA practical challenge for filmmakers and creators: rest is where the seeing happensThe Core Idea:Your craft can take you everywhere - except inward. The stories we tell have the power to tell us something back, but only if we're paying attention. This episode explores what happens when the noise finally stops and we're left standing on honest ground.Featured Guests:Erik Ewers – Director, Editor. Ken Burns's senior editor for 33+ years.

Jeff Goldblum boards Alan Air for one of the most gloriously unpredictable flights yet. From Old Hollywood legends and Mulholland Drive nightmares to pickles, sandwiches and impromptu singing, Jeff goes full Goldblum - charming, curious and wonderfully maverick. They talk about his new album Night Blooms, touring with orchestras around the world, and the timeless magic of jazz standards. Along the way there's Sharon Stone, Billie Holiday, a surprising Bloody Mary debate… and Alan pitches Jeff a brand-new horror film: An American Were-MILF in London. Expect name-dropping, movie love, musical nostalgia and one very enthusiastic conversation about pickles. 00:00 Intro 00:18 Jeff Goldblum boards Alan Air 01:14 The Windmills of Your Mind & The Thomas Crown Affair 01:59 Jeff's frozen yoghurt meeting with Faye Dunaway 03:29 Crisps, pickles and snack food debates 05:30 Jeff Goldblum's favourite sandwiches 05:58 The “Bloody Alan” cocktail 07:30 Jeff's love of Lauren Hutton and gabby teeth 10:12 Horoscopes, science and star signs 11:41 Jeff's new album Night Blooms 12:59 Jeff and Alan singing classics like Misty and Bewitched 13:37 Nosferatu, horror films and Alan's Were-MILF pitch 15:03 Jeff agrees to star in Alan's movie 16:23 Touring the UK, Royal Albert Hall and Sydney Opera House 17:41 What happens at a Jeff Goldblum live show 19:41 Touring food: fish & chips and British roasts 20:29 Jeff's favourite drink: the Virgin Mary 21:14 Time machines, classic films and Total Recall 23:34 Sharon Stone, Casino and Scorsese movies 24:48 Old Hollywood, Chateau Marmont and Hollywood history 27:21 Mulholland Drive and David Lynch 29:15 Alan's middle name reveal 30:31 Quick-fire round 33:39 Final descent #LifesABeach #AlanCarr #JeffGoldblum #Podcast #TravelPodcast #NightBlooms #Jazz #ClassicHollywood #MovieLegends #CelebrityPodcast #MulhollandDrive #OldHollywood #RoyalAlbertHall #ComedyPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

Slather some beef tallow on it. On this episode, M3 Fallon Jung, M1s Isa Perez-Sandi and Cory Karasek, and M2 Maria Schapfel let loose on the internet’s wildest health content. We react to AI-generated videos claiming cortisol is why Dave smells bad, Colonel Sanders warning you about non-biodegradable supermarket fruit, and those unhinged animations where a screaming spine demands you fix your posture. Some of it’s nonsense, some of it’s accurate, and all of it leads to tangents about fake vomit made from chunky soup, whether the ER triage nurse should tell non-emergent patients “good news, you’re not dying,” and the eternal question every clinical student faces: “So what specialty are you going into?” We talk about imposter syndrome, being “pluripotent,” the secret ER life hack nobody tells you about, and why Jeff Goldblum’s face should be used in all AI-generated health content. It’s an hour of medical students trying to make sense of what social media is feeding their future patients—and themselves.
