The Mortal Kombat II movie came out… several weeks ago, apparently, but MK Fever is still raging at Zero Issues Central! We finally all saw the movie, so now it’s time to talk all about it! Does it hold up to the mighty 1995 Klassic? What characters and fights were a flawless fatality or a fatal blow to the series? And what of Karl Urban as Johnny Cage? And our favourite character, Cole Young!? But we’ve got a lot more Kombat to Konversate about! We dig into tournaments as a storytelling function, their long history in comics, games, and movies, and the ever-present shadow of “Enter the Dragon”. We match up some Krossover Kombatants, pitting the MK Krew against comic heroes, then dig into the history of Mortal Kombat comics… which is still mostly Malibu’s 1990s MK line, so why hasn’t anyone else done much with this franchise since? And we have a Casting Call for a whole bunch of MK characters — but they have to be actors from John Carpenter movies! That’s right, we’ve got “Rowdy” Roddy Piper as Johnny Cage! James Hong as Shang Tsung! Keith David as Scorpion! Wilford Brimley as Kano! Ernest Borgnine as Goro! And that’s just the tip of the Event Tower. Direct Download: MP3

Welcome to another episode of Death Don't Do Fiction, the AIPT Movies podcast! The podcast about the enduring legacy of our favorite movies! It's May, which means it's time for the AIPT Movies podcast's “Mayhem” series! Where we cover movies that kick ass in the literal sense! In this week's episode, Alex, Tim, and guest Tony Sedani discuss John Woo's 1997 maximalist action-drama classic, Face/Off! Healing lasers! A face floating in medical grade goo! An evil-looking mustache! Troubling goth makeup! Danny Masterson getting beat up for being a creep! A heart attack-inducing evil stare! Chekhov's butterfly knife! Snazzy suits and golden guns! Reused props from the 1993 Super Mario Bros. movie! Castor Troy's box of fun! Child endangerment! Awkward use of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow!" Efficient establishment of a bitter rivalry! Lengthy explanations of illogical pseudo science! Copious melodrama! Possibly the least subtle use of mirrors you've ever seen! Random sci-fi elements! Highly quotable lines! Bold parenting strategies! Hand waterfalls!  Multiple amazing action set-pieces including an opening sequence that lesser movies would save for the finale! Environmental destruction, explosions, stunts, and sparks for days! Legendary filmmaker John Woo let loose with a big Hollywood budget, delivering a dose of pure cinematic adrenaline, that despite its somewhat silly reputation is a masterclass in action filmmaking! All that plus Nicolas Cage and John Travolta perfectly matching each other's crazy in the best body swap movie ever made! Come for the overacting, stay for the over-the-top action!

MORTAL KOMBAT is back… but is it actually an upgrade?

Dallas and Celeste just got back from seeing Mortal Kombat 2, and they have thoughts. The sequel brings Johnny Cage into the fold, raises the stakes with the actual tournament, and delivers some genuinely great fights and character moments. But does it stick the landing? In the spoiler-free half, Dallas and Celeste break down the pacing problems, the characters who got shortchanged, and whether the film earns its R rating. Then after the break, gloves come off, full spoiler discussion on movie spoilers, Kitana's story arc (the one that should have been the whole movie), what the film gets right as a Mortal Kombat experience, and why it left Dallas wanting to fire up the games all over again.

MK2 (2026): Fatalities, Fan Service & a Panel Divided | ft. Brian from Lucky Finds ComicsJose (Cupcake), Mike (WillDaBeast), and Brian from Luck Key Finds Comics go spoiler-free on Mortal Kombat 2 (2026) — and the panel is split wide open. Karl Urban arrives as Johnny Cage, Ludi Lin returns as Liu Kang, Josh Lawson is back as Kano, and Adeline Rudolph steps up as Katana in a film that's part fan service, part franchise-building behemoth, and — for at least one of us — a brutal disappointment. Fans of Mortal Kombat (1995), Mortal Kombat (2021), and classic video game tournament films like Enter the Dragon and Bloodsport will find a lot to chew on here. We dig into the franchise legacy, the creative team behind the film, and deliver three very different verdicts — including one that drops the hammer hard. Watch or skip? You'll have to listen to find out who loved it, who had reservations, and who called Finish Him on the whole thing.

***Please note the new format.  Going forward, we record smaller segments and post them as one, longer audio file. 081 - Mortal Kombat II, Dir. Simon McQuoid Mortal Kombat (2021) was an unexpected hit and good time.  The fans wanted a few things changed but It's safe to say it was far and above what was expected after the 1997 disaster.   Mortal Kombat II gave fans more of what they wanted but at the sacrifice of the little story that made the 2021 film so unexpectedly great.  MKII has more Kano, some excellent Johnny Cage, and more fights between destined characters (and a few deaths!).

MKAU Interviews: Josh Lawson (Mortal Kombat II - Kano)

This week on The Commentary Booth, Jamie Apps and Corrina Mabey revisit one of the most iconic video game adaptations of the 1990s, Mortal Kombat (1995). With Mortal Kombat II arriving in cinemas, the pair head back to the original tournament to find out whether this cult classic still holds up nearly three decades later.Three martial arts warriors journey to a faraway island to battle for the fate of the Earth realm. It's dumb. It's glorious. And it absolutely holds up more than you'd expect.From nostalgia-fuelled memories of seeing the film at the drive-in, to breaking down the surprisingly strong fight choreography, practical effects, and unforgettable techno soundtrack, Jamie and Corrina dig into what made this adaptation a standout in an era when video game movies rarely worked. They also unpack the film's wild casting “what ifs”, including alternate choices for Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade and Raiden, plus behind-the-scenes trivia around Goro's infamous animatronic suit and the production challenges faced by director Paul W.S. Anderson.Highlights Breakdown: - Why Mortal Kombat (1995) remains a nostalgic favourite for longtime fans - The surprisingly impressive practical effects, costumes, and production design - How the film influenced Mortal Kombat lore, including Kano becoming Australian - Why the original techno soundtrack is still iconic - Comparing the 1995 cult classic to the 2021 reboot and upcoming sequelDoes Mortal Kombat deserve its reputation as one of the best early video game adaptations? How well do the visual effects and practical creature work hold up today? Has the 2021 reboot changed how audiences view this original classic?Finish him... by hitting play now.This week's episode is brought to you byAustralian Wrestling CardsCheck out more great content from Pario Magazine on our website.-------------------------------------------------------------SUPPORT PARIO MAGAZINE & THE COMMENTARY BOOTH- PATREON- BUY MERCH- AMAZON PRIME VIDEO- TUBEBUDDY- Subscribe to AEW Plus using my code (q0yydoz) to earn $10 in FITE credit- Shop Online With Honey- Shop Online With SatechiMY EQUIPMENT- Elgato Facecam- Rode PodMic- Elgato Wave Mic Arm LP- Streamlabs Talk StudioFOLLOW JAMIE ON SOCIAL MEDIA- Twitter- Facebook- Instagram- TikTokFOLLOW PARIO MAGAZINE ON SOCIAL MEDIA- Twitter- Facebook- Instagram

Andrew sums up this chat right at the start when he talks about organisations like The Kano Foundation being the best of us. Most match goers will be aware of the section at the front of the Lisbon Lions stand that houses loud and enthusiastic kids every week and most will know that they are there with the Kano Foundation. For a large section of our support there is little knowledge and understanding of who this group is and the work involved in organising these visits.

Across markets in Nigeria today, one thing is becoming increasingly clear  the cost of feeding a family is rising faster than incomes.From Abuja to Kano… from Lagos to Maiduguri… many households now spend a larger share of their earnings on food than ever before.A basket of groceries that once lasted a week now struggles to last a few days.And for millions of Nigerians, the simple question each morning is no longer what to cook but how to afford it.In response to the growing pressure on households, the Federal Government has announced plans to cut import duties on key food items and other essential goods, in what officials describe as an effort to curb inflation and ease the burden on citizens.But as the policy begins to take shape, Nigerians are asking an important question:Will cutting import duties truly bring down food prices… or will the relief remain out of reach for ordinary families?

What if the thing you almost didn't try became the thing that saved your life? In Episode 20 of Inside the Wave, Perry sits down with longtime Utopia black belt Jimmy Kanno to unpack a 14-year journey that started with MMA fandom and a random neon sign—and turned into sobriety, leadership, business ownership, and a black belt earned the hard way. Jimmy began training at 28. At the time, he was working tough manual labor jobs, living cash-only, and stuck in habits he knew wouldn't lead anywhere good. Jiu-jitsu wasn't part of some master plan. It was just something to try. But it became the one consistent thread in his life. In this conversation, Jimmy shares: How training helped him close the door on addiction for good Why plateaus are inevitable and why showing up anyway is everything The identity shift that happens from white belt to black belt What changes in your 40s when you have to work harder just to stay sharp The reality of gym ownership versus simply loving to teach Why community, not technique, is what keeps people on the mats Jimmy's belt progression mirrors his personal growth... from getting his first checking account to building businesses, getting married, and mentoring the next generation. If you're a white belt wondering if you'll stick with it, a blue belt feeling plateaued, or someone who knows jiu-jitsu is becoming more than just a workout—this episode will hit home. Listen now and ride the wave. Follow Jimmy here: Instagram: kanno_est1983 Stay tuned for more conversations that go beyond the mats.

This week we're happy to welcome Janie Van Halen to the podcast. Janie introduces us to her current rescue Pepper, a unique looking Poodle, Chihuahua, Mexican hairless mix, she's had for just over two years. We also hear the story of her "soul dog" Kody, a Pomeranian that she shared with husband Eddie Van Halen, who went on tour, photo shoots and embodied the life of a true rocker dog. And we can't talk dogs without mentioning Kano, another Pomeranian, who gets the distinction of walking Janie down the aisle at her and Eddie's wedding. Lots of great stories surrounding these dogs that fans have been seeing in social media for years.Janie gave her shout outs to her vet, any person or rescue that puts in the hard work to provide for dogs in need and Tobie's Small Dog Rescue, a non-profit organization that provides temporary care and shelter for stray, abandoned, and relinquished dogs — placing each one into a responsible, caring forever home.

2026年WBC經典賽落幕，除了贏球的感動、輸球的淚水，你知道嗎？棒球，其實也是了解台灣政權演變、族群交融的重要切入點。 台灣棒球發展如何與政治緊密糾纏。日治時期，棒球常被作為殖民統治的宣傳工具，例如：來自花蓮的「能高團」的發展帶有理蕃政策與商業宣傳色彩；1931年「嘉義農林棒球隊」在甲子園奪下亞軍，被日本政府用來修飾前一年「霧社事件」所引發的統治危機，營造「三族共和」形象，儘管如此，日本確實也把棒球的種子灑在台灣的這片土地上生根、發芽；而進入戰後時期，海外的台獨運動也曾試圖藉由少棒比賽來進行政治宣傳。 適逢3月17日中華職棒開打37週年紀念日，這集，將由日本記者野島剛、球評曾文誠、作家陳祖安，共同為我們補上一堂棒球歷史與人文課：從WBC聊起，談日本隊未能挺進四強的震驚、「大谷翔平效應」如何席捲全球，以及Team Taiwan從「冠軍之路」走出的新世代風格，一路回顧台日棒球百年的前世今生。 07:30 從12強棒球賽到WBC，日本隊表現都不如預期，棒球在日本依然受關注嗎？ 09:15 台灣隊的蛻變與新一代的「不怕」風格 12:16 撇除國族勝負，WBC賽場上的感動時刻 19:08 棒球與政治的糾葛：KANO與霧社事件的關聯 23:10 記錄嘉農球員的口述歷史，與王貞治掀起的棒球炫風 30:33 台灣、日本棒球發展的轉捩點 41:54 因為殖民關係而發展出的「棒球情結」 47:48 日本教練如何幫助台灣球員建立「職業意識」？ 59:06 席捲全球的「大谷效應」 來賓｜作家野島剛、球評曾文誠、作家陳祖安 製作團隊｜楊惠君、藍婉甄、林彥伶 攝影｜謝佩穎

Créé par Raphael Melki et Belkacem Meziane, Jams Of The Year est le podcast dédié aux amateurs de musique funk, soul, rap et R&B. Chaque épisode met en lumière une année spécifique à travers une sélection soignée de 12 morceaux emblématiques illustrant l'évolution des genres et de l'industrie musicale.Janvier – Bobby Brown : Get AwayProduit par Teddy Riley, ce hit fusionne le New Jack Swing avec un sample de Knee Deep. Bobby y réaffirme son indépendance en citant son propre tube My Prerogative.Février – Monie Love : Born 2 B.R.E.E.D.Co-écrit par Prince, ce titre hip-hop house utilise un sample de Maceo Parker pour porter un message sur l'importance de l'éducation et de l'éveil des consciences.Mars – H-Town : Knockin' Da BootsCe classique du slow jam de Houston s'appuie sur le Be Alright de Zapp. Il installe le groupe comme une force majeure du R&B sensuel des années 90.Avril – Terence Trent D'Arby : Do You Love Me Like You Say ?Le single qui marque le retour de TTDA après l'échec de son 2nd albumMai – Tag Team : Whoomp ! (There It Is)Véritable phénomène devenu hymne de stade, ce titre d'Atlanta repose sur une boucle italo-disco de Kano. Il reste l'un des singles les plus vendus de l'histoire du hip-hop.Juin – Tony! Toni! Toné! : If I Had No LootLe trio d'Oakland célèbre ses racines avec une instrumentation "live" et un sample de Teddy Pendergrass. Un manifeste pour une soul moderne, organique et instrumentale. Le groupe qui a popularisé Raphael SaadiqJuillet – Janet Jackson : IfCe titre charnière mêle un riff de guitare rock agressif aux productions léchées de Jam & Lewis. Il redéfinit l'image de Janet dans une ère plus mature et audacieuse.Août – Meshell Ndegeocello : If That's Your Boyfriend (He Wasn't Last Night)Pionnière de la Neo-Soul, Meshell impose sa basse hypnotique et son style radical. Le clip de Mondino en fait immédiatement une icône alternative du funk.Septembre – Tevin Campbell : Can We TalkÉcrit par Babyface, ce sommet du R&B mélodique met en valeur la voix exceptionnelle de Tevin à seulement 17 ans. Octobre – Mint Condition : U Send Me Swingin'Seul groupe auto-suffisant du label Perspective, ils brillent par une fusion jazz-funk rare.

Quand le Minneapolis Sound et le R&B se rencontrentNovembre – DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince : I'm Looking for the One (To Be with Me)Teddy Riley apporte sa touche Talkbox et un sample du S.O.S. Band à ce titre mélodieux.

Un mélange parfait de rap et de voix soul qui a conquis le monde.Aidez-nous en soutenant gratuitement ce podcast !C'est très simple :

This sonic work is an attempt to communicate my profound childhood relationship with Kano, as well as to hint at the complex layers of Northern Nigeria. It is a piece of strange juxtapositions, and cross-cultural interferences and vibrations. The sounds of ancient rock gongs in Birnin Kudu reverberating across the plains, beating out Hausa and Fulani rhythms and songs; the colonial British voice, a history of violence; and the beauty of the Hausa language. Sounds of my child self from 1970s, recorded 47 years ago, captured a bird call, and myself mimicking that bird, called Ragon Maza in the Hausa language. Beyond the hiss, which seems like a sonic version of the mists of time, you can hear the sounds at dusk, one evening of my childhood, the distant prayer call from Kano mosque, and the sounds of evening crickets. My flame tree seed pod, from our Kano garden, that has travelled the world with me in my suitcase, shimmies in the background. Kano beads, which you can hear, are glass beads that were made in Palestine, from Dead Sea salt, and sand, made in the glassmaking city of Al Khalil (current day Hebron), supplying glass beads that were traded in Egypt, Sudan, Ethiopia and finally arrived in Kano city. Mine are green.I have taken multiple fragments from a 5-inch reel tape recording, held in the Pitt Rivers Museum sound archive, recorded by Bernard Evelyn Buller Fagg, between June and September 1955, when he was working for the British Colonial administration. He was an archaeologist interested in rock gongs, and he came across several ancient caves, with rock gongs, and important cave paintings, in the area of Birnin Kudu, an old city with ancient history, in Northern Nigeria, that was once part of Kano state. He invited local drummers to see if the rock gongs could match their traditional drums and rhythms. The various sections included sounds of the ‘string drum' or Kalangu drum, a Hausa talking drum, the rhythm of the Tambari, used to greet chiefs and emirs. And many other local songs, and numerous types of drumming. I picked the ones that I loved most. Where possible I have tried to pair the rhythm on rock gongs with the rhythm on the drum itself. I interweave the glitches from the 1955 recording, as sonic interference - colonial interference, or my own presence, or maybe its the sound of tuning into the past.Umar Shamsi Muhammad, a university student, helped me gather additional sounds, from the Birnin Kudu caves. He captured sounds of students and curators beating the rock gongs in the main caves, of Mesa and Habude, and interviewed an historian, Umar Farouk Abubakar. You can hear two fragments of this interview, as well as a Hausa / Fulani flute player and drummer, playing the Koroso dance in the caves. In the centre of this piece are the sounds of the actual Tambari drum, and the exhilarating sound of the double reed wind instrument called the Algaita, played recently in Kano, for the greeting of the Emir of Kano.You can understand all about how Nigeria was created, by reading the excellent book by Max Siollun, called What Britain Did To Nigeria. I have included a quote from a British soldier who was part of the battle for the Sokoto Caliphate in March 1903, who describes the battle as "some slaughter, much fun". A British officer explains: "we chase and kill until the area is clear of living men - and we tire of blood and bullets".Rock gong music from Nigeria reimagined by Salma Ahmad Caller.———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

Flames swept through Singer Market in Kano, destroying shops, goods, and years of investment, leaving many traders devastated. This marks the second fire at the market in 2026, deepening concerns over recurring incidents that continue to undermine livelihoods and strain the state's economy.Today on Nigeria Daily, we examine the scale of lives and property lost, the cause of the fire, and its impact on affected residents.

Kano is dead! Classic Constructed is SHOOK! Blitz is reborn...sort of?

They entertained listeners for years. The Route's Dave Kane and Maureen Rich have retired, and listeners say their popular shows — "Breakfast with the Beatles" and "Road to Joy," respectively — are already missed. The way we access and listen to music is changing. It's a reminder of how valuable it can be for communities to have people like Kano and Maureen. They join us to tell some stories and to make the case for why calling in to request a song — while more time-consuming — beats having the world's catalog on your phone. Our guests: Dave Kane, retired host of "Breakfast with the Beatles" on The Route Maureen Rich, retired host/producer of "Road to Joy" on WRUR/WITH; musician, lead singer and ukulele player with TugHill Band and Tasty Parker ---Connections is supported by listeners like you.

A musician was sentenced to death for blasphemy under Sharia law in Nigeria, highlighting the tension between brutal religious courts and the nation's protective secular constitution. The Supreme Court intervened, recognizing that rapid sentencing by the local Sharia court often seeks to bypass constitutional protections before citizens can exercise their rights. This case exemplifies the political volatility of upholding modern secular law against entrenched traditional religious demands, where theological disagreements can result in capital punishment.News Source:Nigeria's Supreme Court allows late appeal in Kano blasphemy caseBy Camillus Ebo for ReutersSeptember 25, 2025

When the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in 2021, they introduced many controversial measures, including a ban on music. How do people celebrate special occasions, like weddings? BBC Pashto's Payenda Sargand recently attended a wedding in the southern city of Kandahar and tells us about the other forms of entertainment that were on display, including poetry, singers performing without music and stand-up comedians. The tradition of ‘money spraying' is a major part of Nigerian wedding celebrations, but now you could face a hefty fine or even a prison sentence if you're caught doing it. Make-up artist Abdullahi Musa Huseini, also known as Amuscap on social media, was recently sentenced by a high court in the northern city of Kano for throwing cash at his own wedding, and he's currently serving a six-month jail sentence. Mansur Abubakar from BBC Africa has been reporting on this story. Tuareg communities in North Africa traditionally celebrate weddings with a 7-day party. The BBC Arabic's Xtra TV producers were invited to a wedding in Gath, in the south of Libya, and got to know the groom, Jamal, a young man who said he had to save for years to be able to afford such a feast in the current cost-of-living crisis. Saif Rebai reports. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world.
