Because Apparently We've All Had Enough Capes and Spandex This week on the podcast, Brian and Darryl are talking Fantastic Four: First Steps, Happy Gilmore 2, Movies we want to catch at the theater for the rest of 2025, and the latest Superhero Showdown at the Box Office. Episode Index Intro: 0:07 Box Office Showdown: 10:49 Movie in the Back Half of 2025: 20:45 Happy Gilmore 2: 33:27 Fantastic Four: 45:22 Superman vs. Marvel’s First Family at the Box Office Superman grabbed a bigger domestic haul, but First Steps showed stronger international momentum and may signal better legs in overseas markets. Superman Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl1543340801/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Fantastic Four: First Steps Box Office https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl2429649665/?ref_=bo_hm_rd Remaining 2025 Must-Sees at the Theater Darryl: Tron: Ares Avatar: Fire and Ash Nobody 2 The Running Man MK 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Caught Stealing The Long Walk Brian: Caught Stealing The Naked Gun Tron:Ares Mortal Kombat 2 Predator: Badlands Weapons Twinless The Running Man The Toxic Avenger TMNT 35th Anniversary Release Happy Gilmore 2 (2025) Summary Nearly three decades after winning the Tour Championship, Happy (Adam Sandler) is now a grieving widower and alcoholic. To pay for his daughter Vienna's ballet school in Paris, he returns to pro golf—and chaos ensues. The film leans hard into callbacks, celebrity cameos, and legacy sequel nostalgia.  Director: Kyle Newacheck Writers: Tim Herlihy & Adam Sandler  Cast: Adam Sandler as Happy Gilmore Julie Bowen as Virginia Venit Christopher McDonald as Shooter McGavin Ben Stiller as Hal L. (in sobriety group leadership) Bad Bunny as Happy's new caddy Benny Safdie as golf mogul Frank Manatee Additional Cast: Sunny Sandler (Vienna), Sadie Sandler, Travis Kelce, Margaret Qualley, John Daly, Rory McIlroy, Eminem (cameos), and more sport & music legends   Production Notes: Produced by Happy Madison and STX Films, filmed in North Jersey over fall 2024; directed by Newacheck with music by Rupert Gregson-Williams. The production is built around cameo-heavy nostalgia and real-world athletes.  Budget: Estimated at $30 million, modest compared to legacy sequel standards.  Distribution: Released globally via Netflix on July 25, 2025.  Reception: Critics remain divided—mixed reviews on Rotten Tomatoes (65%) and Popcornmeter (~70%). Praise comes for Sandler's commitment and cameo spectacle; criticism centers on overreliance on callbacks, tonally uneven storytelling (including a shocking death), and lazy legacy sequel tropes. Some outlets called it a “cinematic disaster,” while others saw it as funny and heartfelt escapism.  Rating out of 10 Cameo Filled Nostalgic Rounds of Maxi Golf Darryl: 2/10 Brian: 7.5/10 Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) Summary Set in a retro‑futuristic 1960s alternate universe (Earth‑828), Reed Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm are already established heroes expecting their first child. When cosmic threats like Galactus and Silver Surfer emerge, the team must band together to save the world—and their family dynamic. Director: Matt Shakman Writers: Josh Friedman, Eric Pearson, Jeff Kaplan, Ian Springer; story contributions by Kat Wood  Cast: Pedro Pascal (Mister Fantastic) Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman) Joseph Quinn (Human Torch) Ebon Moss‑Bachrach (The Thing) Julia Garner (Silver Surfer) Ralph Ineson (Galactus) Paul Walter Hauser (Mole Man/Harvey Elder) John Malkovich as Red Ghost (cameo)  Production Notes: Filmed at Pinewood Studios in the UK with shoots in Derbyshire Dales and Oviedo; styled with practical miniatures, retro‑futuristic set design reminiscent of Jack Kirby comics; score by Michael Giacchino recorded at Abbey Road Studios; executive production overseen by Kevin Feige; post‑credits nod to late producer Jamie Christopher and director's mother Inez Shakman in homage scenes  Budget: Estimated over $200 million  Box Office (Opening Weekend): Domestic 3‑day: $117.6–118M across 4,125 theaters (including ~$57M previews) International: $100M from 52 territories Global debut: ~$218M   Reception & Context: Critical consensus: ~88% on Rotten Tomatoes; CinemaScore “A‑” reflects strong audience response. Reviews praise cast chemistry, emotional grounding, and visual style—though tone is more serious than comic-minded critics expected. Some reviewers note a pacing lull and lack of overt humor from a director known for lighter work. Industry analysts call this the first confirmed MCU blockbuster of 2025—ushering in Phase 6 with confidence and momentum after previous underperformers.

The Fantastic Four are finally back on the big screen, with Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps now out in theaters! It has been a nightmare watching some of my favorite characters in all of comics continuously get butchered in big screen adaptations, and Kevin Feige & Marvel Studios have been promising that they're finally gonna deliver a faithful adaptation of the Fantastic Four. The Fantastic Four have, truly, always been some of my favorite characters in Marvel Comics. From the Byrne run of the '80s to the Jonathan Hickman run, they've also had some of my favorite long runs in all of Marvel. Even the current Ryan North run is fantastic. But for so long, film adaptations have never really understood what made the team awesome. The Fantastic Four: First Steps has been, without question, my most anticipated MCU movie of this era because all the trailers have really teased that this film will finally deliver on the intimate family dynamics, old-school optimism and whacky sci-fi of the stories I grew up loving. And the fact that this felt like the most unique movie in the entire MCU, because of it's setting and decor, was just a bonus. So, does The Fantastic Four: First Steps mark the triumphant arrival of some of the MCU's most captivating new characters, or is it another Multiverse Saga dud? Find out in this NON-SPOILER review!The Fantastic Four: First Steps:Directed by: Matt ShakmanScreenplay by: Josh Friedman and Eric Pearson and Jeff Kaplan & Ian SpringerStory by: Eric Pearson and Jeff Kaplan & Ian Springer and Kat WoodBased on the Marvel comics by: Stan Lee and Jack KirbyProduced by: Kevin FeigeCo-Producer: Mitch BellExecutive Producers: Louis D'Esposito, Grant Curtis, Tim LewisMusic by: Michael GiacchinoDirector of Photography: Jess HallEdited by: Nona Khodai, Tim RocheCasting by: Sarah FinnProduction Design by: Kasra FarahaniCostume Design by: Alexandra ByrneCast: Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Ralph Ineson, Julia Garner, Paul Walter Hauser, John Malkovich, Natasha Lyonne, Sarah NilesSynopsis: Against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel's First Family is forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, while defending Earth from a ravenous space god called Galactus and his enigmatic Herald, Silver Surfer.
Third time is hopefully the charm for Marvel's First Family as the Fantastic Four make their MCU Debut in The Fantastic Four: First Steps.

Join us for an insightful discussion with Jeff Kaplan, a seasoned divorce attorney from New York City, as we explore the critical dynamics of building a strong attorney-client relationship, especially in high-conflict divorce and custody cases. Jeff shares his expertise on why this relationship is sacred and how a good lawyer should know their client's life details intimately, often better than the client themselves. We address common misconceptions about attorney responsibilities and highlight the importance of clients being proactive and well-informed to ensure effective representation. Jeff offers anecdotes and practical advice to help listeners understand the mutual responsibilities necessary for a successful legal partnership.As we navigate the intricacies of family law, Jeff sheds light on the dynamics between opposing counsels and how these relationships can benefit clients. We emphasize the value of cooperation and ethical practice, showcasing how having cooperative professionals on both sides can lead to efficient resolutions and prevent costly litigation. Jeff shares personal experiences and strategies for dealing with challenging opposing counsel, underscoring the importance of aiming for out-of-court settlements whenever possible to protect clients' interests.Communication is a key theme in this episode, with a focus on strategic communication in family law cases. Jeff discusses the importance of presenting a reasonable stance in court and how documenting efforts to resolve issues amicably can benefit clients. We touch on effective communication strategies, including avoiding impulsive actions that could harm one's case, and introduce practical tools to support clients' legal representation. Jeff also highlights the necessity of honesty and preparation in legal cases, preparing clients for tough questions in custody trials, and the significance of thorough preparation to build credibility with judges. Listen in as we provide practical advice for navigating the complexities of family law and ensuring a strong legal partnership.
Guest: Nick Kokonas, co-founder of the Alinea Group and former CEO of TockAs of October 1, 2024, Nick Kokonas is no longer an owner of the Alinea restaurant group, which he co-founded and ran for almost 20 years. When he bought a vineyard in Napa Valley prior to the exit, one of his sons remarked, “He's given up. Time to go out to pasture.”Nick admits that the work ahead of him is “not the same” as the high-pressure world of a Michelin-starred restaurant in Chicago. But he's started working with the magician Nate Staniforth on a new restaurant concept that will present diners with illusions and surprises over the course of a two-hour experience. “If you want to feel wonder and feel childlike again, go see a magician,” Nick says. “[But] there's so much bad cultural baggage ... what we wanted to do was create an experience that is not really about magic.”Chapters:(02:29) - Celebrity restauranteurs (07:14) - The next act (12:30) - Buying the vineyard (15:37) - Fear is motivating (17:59) - Opening night (22:03) - Tongue cancer (27:56) - “OK, let's fix this” (31:10) - Selling experience (38:32) - The table plate (42:40) - Feeling full (44:14) - Next Restaurant and Tock (49:33) - Being still (51:19) - Nate Staniforth's lottery illusion (56:57) - The magic restaurant (01:02:29) - Being misunderstood (01:07:44) - Working via email (01:11:43) - “Enemies” (01:18:23) - Who Nick is hiring and what “grit” means to him Mentioned in this episode: Mike Gamson, Shaquille O'Neal, Jeff Kaplan, Steve Bernacki, Robin Anil, Grant Achatz, OpenTable, American Express, The Big Lebowski, The New York Times, eGullet, Gourmet Magazine, Roger Ebert, Eddie van Halen, Goodfellas, The Devil Wears Prada, Batman, the Chicago Bears, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Bavette's and Brendan Sodikoff, Pablo Picasso, Chef's Table, Google, Brian Fitzpatrick, Finding Real Magic, David Blaine, Mark Cuban, Mark Caro, Chicago Magazine, John Mariani, Cat Cora, Homaro Cantu, Dave Portnoy, Pete Wells, and Eric Asimov.Links:Connect with NickTwitterLinkedInConnect with JoubinTwitterLinkedInEmail: grit@kleinerperkins.com Learn more about Kleiner PerkinsThis episode was edited by Eric Johnson from LightningPod.fm

In this exciting episode, we sit down with Jeff Kaplan, star of the hit Netflix series Cobra Kai, as he takes us on a wild ride through his unforgettable Airbnb experience in Barcelona! From unexpected twists to hilarious moments, Jeff dives into the details of what made this trip one for the books. Whether you're a fan of Cobra Kai or just love a good travel story, you won't want to miss this!
This first Rain Like The Sound Of Trains 7" really made an impact when it first came out. It was a supergroup of sorts and caused some unlikely controversy in the punk scene. The message and sound of this group has aged incredibly well. Jeff Kaplan is bank in the copilot chair to discuss the record and the band's legacy. Then we're joined by Pete Chramiec, Joshua Larue and Dug Birdzell for a conversation about the origins of the band, recording this 7" and much more.
To conclude our Scream streak, longtime cohost Jeff Kaplan returns for a chat about their first non-Dischord album, No More Censorship. This episode is the first Patron-selected episode. Every five shows, we will do a special Patron's Choice episode (and no, it doesn't need to be a Dischord or DC band). It was pure kismet that one of the very first suggestions was actually this record! And I'm pretty proud of the conversation I had with the band's secret weapon on guitar (and one of the nicest guys you're likely to come across), Franz Stahl. Hit me!
Eban Brown (Former Lead Singer of The Stylistics) and Jeff Kaplan aka J.Kap (singer/actor/filmmaker/Cruz on Cobra Kai) joins us on this episode of The Jimmy Star Show with Ron Russell broadcast live from the W4CY studios on Wednesday, January 24th, 2024.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-jimmy-star-show-with-ron-russell9600/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
This episode is about the Dischord half-release that brings a new band into the fold, Hoover. They were innovators and harbingers of much to come for the sonics of the 90s punk scene. Does this episode or my conversation with guitarist/vocalist, Joe McRedmond (absolutely the nicest guy I've interviewed this year), change my old bias against the band? Listen and find out. I even had to call in a favor to get old cohost, Jeff Kaplan, to take the sidecar on the episode. Check it!
On this episode my old cohost, Jeff Kaplan, dusts off his microphone and we sink our teeth into the masterful last original material Jawbox would release on Dischord. Later in the show J Robbins drops by the EOE studio to talk about the tracks and J (G) Ballard.
Keeping the focus on the human element of ethics and compliance can help E&C programs move from “cop” to “coach.” But what does that look like in practice? In this episode of the Principled Podcast, host Susan Divers talks about the importance of humanizing ethics and compliance with Adam Balfour, the author of Ethics & Compliance for Humans. Listen in as the two discuss best practices that Adam has used over the course of his E&C career, managing regional and global ethics and compliance programs as well as leading areas of global risk management and privacy.

If you haven't heard of Tactical Kinetics, I can just about guarantee you own one of their gun barrels already. They are the largest OEM barrel manufacturer you've probably never heard of. They are located in Knoxville, TN, and manufacture both pistol and rifle barrels. I sit down with Jeff Kaplan, Sales Manager, and John McCracken, Plant Manager, in this episode to talk about how they started the business, what it took to go from making 200 barrels to hundreds of thousands of barrels, and what's next for them coming soon. Check out https://tacticalkinetics.com to shop and learn more about their business. I'm sure they've got a barrel you've been meaning to buy, AND the best part about their pistol barrels is they are offered in non-threaded and threaded versions, so you can shoot suppressed!

This episode is a milestone of sorts. On it, we discuss the first album by one of my all time favorite bands (of any genre). The almighty and mysterious Lungfish. Do yourselves a favor and go listen to the record (right after the episode)!
This episode we welcome Drew and Scott back to the table to help cover for Jeff's absence. They're two stand up (not comedian) guys. We discuss the Beefeater body of work and legacy, as well as talk to three of the founding members in hour three of the show. Strap in. Long live Fred "Freak" Smith!
So this is sadly Jeff's last episode before he goes on a "indefinite Hiatus". His voice will be missed, but his large spirit will still haunt the halls of the EOE studios. This episode we speak about Circus Lupus for the first time. Damn, this band was game changing for me and lots of folks. Fractured and feral, cerebral and bloody. Super Genius is one of the great Dischord debuts. Vocalist Chris Thomson stops by later in the show to fill in some of his musical history and share some stories of the formation of Circus Lupus. This is to be missed at your own peril.
100 Episodes, who knew?! Not me, but it's been a fun and deeply rewarding journey thus far. Can't wit to see where we are by episode 200. On today's show we talk to Tim Green about 1991 : the year Ulysses went broke. Jeff and I wrestle with this odd duck of a release and come out the other side mostly unscathed. Tim is the perfect guest for our 100th, as he's been on the show the most, and is one of my favorite folks to virtually hang with. It was over 100 degrees during recording, so there are a few moments of meltdown, both audio and host-wise. Hope you enjoy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for listening this far....

On this week's show, we discuss Kevin Feige's comments about re-casting the T'Challa character int he MCU, Namor being confirmed as a mutant, Marvel's X-Men possibly being inspired by a Joss Whedon comic, Marvel hiring Jeff Kaplan and Ian Springer as screenwriters for Fantastic Four, and the possibility of She-Hulk appearing in Captain America: New World Order
This episode we talk about a new band for the show, Desiderata, who put out this one record, was on a couple comps and released a demo. We celebrate the spirit and energy of this young band, and later in the show we had the pleasure of talking to vocalist Amanda MacKaye. We discuss this record, this band and then go down the rabbit hole on many subjects close to her large heart and fierce mind. This is one for the books!
This episode we talk about the 7' that ushered in what a lot of folks would call Jawbox's golden period. As usual, we find a way to talk about two tracks for two and a half hours. Vocalist/guitarist J Robbins joins us for the second half of the show to talk about these recordings and his thoughts on everything from songwriting inspirations to leather vests and Soundgarden. Buckle up, it's a rocking ride!

It's always fun to get to a new band in the Dischord roster. Today we talk about Autoclave's first record, a split with K. Unfortunately no guests this episode, but me and Jeff find plenty to say (surprise, surprise) about the second all woman band to release a record on Dischord.
it's always a treat when we reach the Fugazi episodes. On today's show, we explore their second full length, Steady Diet Of Nothing. This is sometimes regarded as something of a dark horse in their catalog. We hope to have a hand in rectifying it's place in the canon. As you can see by the episode's length, we have a lot to say about this one. Friend of the show, Dr Drew Lichtenberg, drops by to weigh in on Guy's tracks on the album. Finally, we talk with bassist Joe Lally about the record and his philosophy of music and life. We'll meet you at the exit....
Once again we are joined by the illustrious Dr Drew Lichtenberg, as the co-host to the cohost, to discuss the still fresh Holy Rollers CD (that compiles their first two albums). Find out the question on everyone's lips, "which lp does Brian prefer? Jeff? Drew? And as per our contracts, we also diverge into many side topics about punk at large, other releases, scene politics etc.
From the ashes, Gray Matter rose again, at the dawn of the 90s and just in time to release one of their most raw, rocking releases yet. This double 7" was an explosion of energy as well as a declaration of life and intent. Jeff and I take our usual meandering tour through our psyches and record collections on the way to digging into and throughly digging these discs. Then we're joined by the always gracious and intelligent Mark Haggerty (guitar) and Dante Ferrando (drums). Always a treaty at EOE studios when I get to revisit Gray Matter and talk to these kind folks.
With an iconic, unforgettable cover and huge production, the Holy Rollers second album really cemented their place in the Dischord family. Three members, three singers and multiple layers of music here. Find out what Jeff and I think of this one and hear guitarist/singer Marc Lambiotte go into the band's mindset and approach, as well as give some context for the times and some of the songs. Enjoy!
As we get deeper into the 90s era on the show, we meet another new band, Severin. New music, but not necessarily new faces. We talk to singer/guitarist, Alec Bourgeois and guitarist Mark Haggerty about the origins of the band and their first release. Spoiler alert, Jeff and I dig it. Listen in for our take on how this band brings more elements into the Dischord formula and expands the label's parameters.
The revolution will not be broadcast. Turn off your radios. The teens have taken over! This episode we dismantle the dismantlers audio tract, 13 Point Program To Destroy America by Nation of Ulysses. There was a lot to discuss this week as we let the sugar and caffeine do their thing. Joining us after the revolutionary exogesis, is NOU guitarist Tim Green. Join the political party and dance the state away.
Looking for the most hardcore release on Dischord? Look no farther. The High Back Chairs were so hardcore, they didn't need to scream or pretend not to care about hooks. This record is a lost power pop gem. Truly. Listen to us discuss the merits and mysteries of the record. Our resident academic, Drew Lichtenberg, drops in to give his breakdown of the band and we talk to everyone in said band, except their elusive drummer. A guy who was in a few bands. Anyhow, hope you enjoy this episode and it inspires a few folks to either buy this or dig it out of their collection to give it another spin and another chance.
I've got to say, it's great to have a chance and excuse to explore the liminal worlds of Shudder To Think even further. They're always one of my favorite groups to interview so it was great to catch up with Craig, Stu, Chris and Mike again. And don't worry, it's not me and Jeff rehashing the same things we said last episode about the release. We got our friends Drew Lichtenberg and Scott Sheridan to drop by and drop the needle for us (i.e- break down their thoughts on the release and the band). Hope its as much fun to listen to as it was to record!
One of my favorite Dischord releases of this era, Shudder To Think's "funeral At The Movies" is the subject of today's show. No guests this week, so Jeff and I get caffeinated and go deep and wide with this one. Next episode's guests more than make up for this week's dearth.
Holy Baker, our second longest episode ever! Two albums, one CD. Two guests, one vision. Two cohosts, one long spew of commentary. Well, if any band or release deserves an extra long deep dive, it's this one. Mike Gitter always brings great historic insight and was something of a hardcore Zelig. Peter Cortner needs no introduction. One of the most recognizable voices and singer on one of the most beloved Dischord releases. He doesn't do many interviews and it meant the world that he agreed to be a part of this episode. Listen all at once or in convenient bite-sized chunks!
We begin 1991 on the show with our Jawbox "Grippe" episode. Because of some last minute hold ups we don't have any interviews this time, just Jeff and I blabbing and pontificating form a couple hours and some change. The recent recut of the album is a great upgrade in sonics. Hear if we agree on our takes (hint - we don't) on this important release, Apologies for Jeff sounding like he beaned in on an AM signal for this (we're working out the bugs with his mic).
In this episode, we get an update from three past guests.
