The cowboy is one of the most potent symbols of American Western mythology. But while pop culture might call John Wayne or the Marlboro Man to mind, real history tells a different story than Hollywood or history books. Cowboys in the West were racially diverse, and in Eastern Oregon, Chinese Americans played a big role in ranching and local economies. As part of work to reclaim histories of the early Chinese diaspora in rural Oregon, archaeologists and community historians are on the trail of Eastern Oregon’s Chinese cowboys. That pursuit takes us to the historic Stewart Ranch in Grant County to learn more about Buckaroo Sam, cook Jim Lee and others who lived and worked there. We're joined by historical archaeologist Chelsea Rose to kick off a special series in collaboration with OPB’s “Oregon Experience,” the Southern Oregon University Laboratory of Anthropology and Jefferson Public Radio about unearthing Oregon history — the real stuff. - For more episodes of The Evergreen, and to share your voice with us, visit our showpage.

Em 1956 foi lançado o filme Sangue de Bárbaros, uma atrocidade cinematográfica que virou motivo de piada e constrangeu todos os envolvidos. No entanto, cerca de 24 anos depois, teorias surgiram de que o local das filmagens estaria contaminado por radiação de testes nucleares e uma grande parte dos profissionais envolvidos com o filme veio a óbito por conta da radiação.

Canadian film legend Zacharias Kunuk (Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner) has made more than 30 films and documentaries over his career — almost entirely in Inuktitut. His latest film, Uiksaringitara (Wrong Husband), is an epic historical drama set 4,000 years ago in what we now call Nunavut, where supernatural forces threaten the promised marriage of lovers Kaujak and Sapa. Zacharias joins guest host Talia Schlanger to discuss the traditional Inuit stories that inspired the film, what he says John Wayne movies have in common with Inuit storytelling, and why he's hoping audiences a century from now will still be studying his acclaimed body of work.
International Law in TattersShould we be surprised by the decision of President Trump to kidnap President Nicolas Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores? Should we be shocked by his claim that the US will now administer Venezuela or that US Oil companies will manage Venezuela's huge oil reserves? And what of his threats against Cuba, Colombia, Mexico, Greenland, Nigeria and others?The historical reality is that we have seen all of this before. The most brazen example this century was the invasion of Iraq in 2003, under the pretext of the non-existent weapons of mass destruction. The truth then was that US and British interests were primarily concerned with the control of Iraq's oil. The result was a million Iraqi dead and a region torn apart by the subsequent political instability. International law was flagrantly broken. Torture and a brutal occupation followed. The Fellow in the Big PictureOver the Christmas break I watched more television than I do at any other time. Regular readers will know that I'm more of a radio man. RTE Radio, Raidió na Gaeltachta, Raidió Fáilte, Radio Ulster. I listen to these every day. But I like westerns. And there is always a ton of westerns to be seen on television over the Christmas period. Some are old ones featuring Audie Murphy, Gene Audrey, Alan Ladd, John Wayne, Maureen O Hara and the likes. TG4 usually has a good selection of these.They also show a lot of movies featuring Clint Eastwood. I like his films. And not just the westerns. Although he first came to our attention in Ballymurphy with Rawhide. Unforgiven was the film of choice this Nollaig with Gene Hackman and Morgan Freeman, all in starring roles. And it was followed by Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. Irish government should be ashamed2026 began for the people of the Gaza Strip and the Palestinian Occupied Territories with more Israeli attacks by land and sea and air; winter storms that have added to the enormous hardship of people trying to survive in flimsy tents; and the denial of appropriate humanitarian aid.2025 also ended with Israel having killed nearly half of all those journalists killed last year. Reporters Without Borders recorded that 29 reporters were killed by Israeli forces making Israel “the worst enemy of journalists.”

John Wayne is a Christmas cookie making machine, and the fellas dissect the "Odyssey" trailer. Then, it's a long overdue discussion of the new Christmas classic "The Holdovers," and a deep dive on the latest "Avatar: Fire and Ash."
You might not remember the name Constance Towers, but you may have seen her alongside John Wayne in "The Horse Soldiers," and maybe saw her turning heads in "Shock Corridor." And if you are a "General Hospital" fan, you know that when Helena Cassadine walks into the room someone's either getting a sinister warning or mysteriously disappearing. Constance also starred, on stage, in "Showboat" and "The King and I." And, she was the recipient of two Emmy award nominations. Towers will discuss what it was like being married to the ambassador to Mexico, John Gavin.

John Wayne S. III is approaching VIP status on Yeah Uh Huh with his third appearance. He is on pace for the Five Timer club, and as the inaugural member he is requesting a blue smoking jacket to commemorate that future occasion. For now, he is with us to celebrate the holidays and discuss his newest movie, Hard Holiday. The movie follows the plight of LaDonne Jenkyns, a down on her luck former singer who is laid off just days before Christmas. Hard Holiday is a thoughtful reminder that the holidays are not always happy for everyone, but with love and determination even our worst moments can be a doorway to redemption and joy. #podmatch #londyntownpictures #independentfilm #johnwaynesIII #gloriaprince #alyshakeys #ebonyhustle #diehard #christmasmovieTheme by David T and Mojo 3https://www.amazon.com/Insanity-Sobri...Hard Holiday on Tubihttps://tubitv.com/movies/100048791/hard-holidayHard Holiday on Prime Videohttps://www.amazon.com/Hard-Holiday-John-Wayne-III/dp/B0FNR5QFMPThe Bystander on Amazon Primehttps://www.amazon.com/Bystander-Novel-John-David/dp/1966593899Londyn Town Pictureshttps://londyntownpictures.com/Yeah Uh Huh Social Stuff:YUH Profile on Podmatchhttps://podmatch.com/hostdetailpreview/176507442209909894f443df9Yeah Uh Huh on Linktr.eehttps://linktr.ee/yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh on TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh on Facebookhttps://facebook.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Twitterhttps://twitter.com/YeahUhHuhPodYeah Uh Huh on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/7pS9l716ljEQLeMMxwihoS?si=27bd15fb26ed46aaYeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yeah-uh-huh/id1565097611Yeah Uh Huh Website:https://yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com/yeahuhhuhpodYeah Uh Huh WebsiteHome | YeahUhHuhPod (yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com)Yeah-Uh-Huh on YoutubeYeah Uh-Huh - YouTubeYeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcastshttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yeah-uh-huh/id1565097611
It is SO America to have a problematic movie star as the ultimate icon of the quintessential American genre. And even worse: take John Wayne's reputation out of the equation, and John Ford's THE SEARCHERS can barely register as a serviceable Western. So it's not just that Ford's romanticizing of cowboy life is dated - it's also boring, and a little cheesy when it goes for full emotion. Listen to Alex & Julio as they try to figure out if The Duke made his own brother a cuckold!TIMELINE00:01:24 The Searchers00:15:02 Contrarians Corner- Wanna know how we really feel about THE SEARCHERS?

Yes, of course THE SEARCHERS is not the Unforgiven of the 50s - but was it even trying to be? Can we set aside the things our modern eyes flag as regressive and appreciate the movie on its own terms?

TVC 718.4: Ed welcomes back Stefanie Powers, the actress known around the world as Jennifer Hart on Hart to Hart (ABC, 1979-1984), and the founder and president of the William Holden Wildlife Foundation, the nonprofit organization that Stefanie established in 1982 in memory of her longtime life partner that continues and furthers the conservation work of William Holden in East Africa. Stefanie will reunite with McLintock! co-star Patrick Wayne for the first time in sixty years for a one-performance-only benefit production of A.R. Gurney's Love Letters that will take place on Sunday, Jan. 11 on the Debbie Reynolds Main Stage at the historic El Portal Theatre in North Hollywood, CA beginning at 1pm. Tickets start at $55. If you purchase a VIP ticket for $150, you'll have a chance to meet Stefanie and Patrick on stage. Proceeds for this production will support the efforts of the William Holden Wildlife Foundation.

Topics this segment include why Love Letters continues to appeal to actors and audiences alike; Stefanie's experience working with John Wayne, Patrick Wayne, Maureen O'Hara, and (briefly) director John Ford while filming McLintock!; a trick that Stefanie learned during the production of McLintock! that enables her to drive through dusty terrain without eating dust (a trick that she has used many times during her travels to Africa); and why you can't visit Ireland without seeing The Quiet Man first.
12-15-2025. "HO! HO! HOLLYWOOD: SANTA CLAUSE IN CLASSIC CINEMA" (118) Long before special effects, CGI snowstorms, and big-budget holiday franchises, it fell to a small but memorable group of performers to embody the warmth, wonder, and whimsy of old St. Nick. Ever wonder about the actors who were called upon to portray Santa Claus in film and TV? These classic Santas weren't just men in red suits — they were character actors, vaudevillians, radio veterans, and Hollywood workhorses who brought their own unique spark to the role, shaping how generations of moviegoers came to imagine Father Christmas. From the twinkle-eyed charmers to the unexpectedly gruff curmudgeons, from the iconic to the nearly forgotten, we're unwrapping the stories behind the earliest portrayals that turned Santa into a cinematic tradition. So settle in with a mug of something warm, hang your stocking, and join us as we explore the jolly, joyful, and sometimes surprisingly complex history of Hollywood's first Santas.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! High in the mountains of Bisbee, Arizona, stands a hotel built during the height of the copper boom — a grand structure meant to showcase wealth, innovation, and the promise of a growing Western city. When the Copper Queen Hotel opened in 1902, Bisbee was the largest urban center between St. Louis and San Francisco, alive with miners, rail travelers, and fortune-seekers. More than a century later, the Copper Queen still welcomes guests… but not all of them are living. Arizona's oldest continuously operating hotel has hosted icons like John Wayne, Marlon Brando, and Harry Houdini. Yet the names most often whispered through its halls belong to those who linger long after checkout: Julia Lowell, a young boy known as Billy, and the elusive “Smoking Man.” In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with Jenna Lampinen to explore the legends, encounters, and unexplainable moments tied to one of Arizona's most famously haunted hotels. This is Part Two of our conversation. If you'd like information on staying at the hotel or paranormal investigations, contact Jenna Lampinen.

What happens when you're addicted to violence itself? John Graham shipped out on a freighter at 16, made the first ascent of Denali's North Wall at 20 (never repeated), and faced death dozens times—loving every minute. By 28, nothing mattered except his next dangerous adventure. Then came Vietnam. Setting up a firing squad during the 1971 Easter Offensive in Hue, ordering deaths of teenagers, John broke down weeping. Through encounter groups, he discovered the compassionate man beneath his "John Wayne image." At the UN, he used those warrior qualities for good—risking his career to help end apartheid. For 40 years with the Giraffe Heroes Project, he's inspired courage worldwide. "Pick up the corner of the rug you can pick up."John Graham is a leader of the Giraffe Heroes Project, inspiring courage globally for 40 years. A former US Foreign Service Officer for 15 years, he risked his career at the UN to help end apartheid in South Africa. From shipping out on a freighter at 16 to the first ascent of Denali's North Wall at 20, John transformed from adrenaline-addicted adventurer to global peacebuilder—negotiating with the Khmer Rouge, working on Israel/Palestine peace efforts, and saving the Everglades. Author of four books including the memoir "QUEST." Harvard and Stanford graduate.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! High in the mountains of Bisbee, Arizona, stands a hotel built during the height of the copper boom — a grand structure meant to showcase wealth, innovation, and the promise of a growing Western city. When the Copper Queen Hotel opened in 1902, Bisbee was the largest urban center between St. Louis and San Francisco, alive with miners, rail travelers, and fortune-seekers. More than a century later, the Copper Queen still welcomes guests… but not all of them are living. Arizona's oldest continuously operating hotel has hosted icons like John Wayne, Marlon Brando, and Harry Houdini. Yet the names most often whispered through its halls belong to those who linger long after checkout: Julia Lowell, a young boy known as Billy, and the elusive “Smoking Man.” In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with Jenna Lampinen to explore the legends, encounters, and unexplainable moments tied to one of Arizona's most famously haunted hotels. If you'd like information on staying at the hotel or paranormal investigations, contact Jenna Lampinen. You can email her at jenna@copperqueen.com. #ghoststory #copperqueenhotel #bisbeeaz #hauntedarizona #hauntedhotel #realghoststories #thegravetalks #paranormalpodcast #ghostencounter #supernaturalstories #truehaunting #historicghosts Love real ghost stories?

Seriously, why would anyone hate this movie? Even if you account for film buffs being horrified by Zhang Yimou's apparent Hollywoodization, there's so much in THE GREAT WALL that average audiences would enjoy. Lots of theories in this Real Talk segment, in addition to unabashed praise for the film — and regret for not having supported it when it first opened. Matt Damon's daughter is wrong on this one!TIMELINE00:01:26 What happened?00:02:12 Real Talk00:51:37 The Future & Patreon Stuff- Interested in more Contrarians goodness?

Robert CarradineTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Robert Carradine. Bobby is part of the iconic Carradine family. From his father John to his brothers Keith, David, & Michael, to his niece Martha Plimpton, and his daughter Ever Carradine; this family is Hollywood royalty! In this episode, Bobby and I chat about so many of the things he has done. We discuss his first ever film, working with John Wayne, Revenge of the Nerds with James Cromwell and where that laugh came from! We also dive into his twenty year long career as a professional race car driver for Lotus, and the 24 Hours Of Daytona with Paul Newman. Bobby shares stories including using a bull whip to break a cigarette out of Jamie Lee Curtis' mouth! We cover his playing Lizzie McGuire's dad on the entire run of that show plus the movie, and even a weird "Wife Swap" story involving NFL great Terrell Owens. Finally, we chat about his band "The Checks" and his podcast "Party Nerds Pop-Cast". Both of these projects are with his good buddy Richard Gabai. I have checked out the show, and I think it's definitely worth giving a listen. I think you will enjoy it. Bobby graciously lets me play one of the songs by The Checks, and I think you will enjoy that as well. I can't thank Bobby enough for being on the show. Make sure you show him some love!

On this week's episode, I'm rejoined by Chris Yogerst, author of the new book from the University of New Mexico's “Reel West” series on The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. We discussed the making of the film, its place in the western canon as a sort of natural ending point for the traditional westerns made by John Wayne and John Ford, and the surprisingly political nature of the film's central struggle between the frontier and civilization. If you enjoyed the episode, check out the book (or pick up the pristine 4K, on which Paramount did a fine job of making the film look good as new). And make sure to share it with a friend!
Stew talks pricey Bengals gear & Christmas decorations before he and John Wayne debate Guillermo Del Toro's "Frankenstein" and "Predator:Badlands." Also, a haphazard ranking of Predator movies.
We love to pull the cork. Comedian (and probably the biggest Greek-American entertainer of our time) Stavros Halkias joins us to chat about 2010's True Grit, the Coens' true attempt to cash their post-Oscar blank check. We're talking about Hailee Steinfeld's incredible performance. We're talking about Jeff Bridges' distinctive mumbly delivery. We're talking about how this film is a considerable upgrade over the John Wayne original in possibly every way. We're also talking about how everyone probably smells awful in this movie. And we're talking a lot about the Morris Chestnut network TV show “Watson” for some reason. Join us by the campfire, it's a fun time!
