This week, we're spending time with Melvin James Kaminsky, better known to the universe as comedy icon and director Mel Brooks! After lampooning westerns, monster movies, and world history, Brooks turned his signature sense of humor to the cinematic sci-fi outings of Star Wars, Alien, 2001, and Planet of the Apes. With an all-star cast including Rick Moranis, John Candy, Joan Rivers, Bill Pullman, and Daphne Zuniga, the film was born from a gentleman's agreement between Brooks and Star Wars creator George Lucas. In return for certain concessions (rule number one: no merchandising) from Brooks, Lucas agreed to handle some of the more technical aspects of the film through his special effects company, Industrial Light & Magic. The result was a cult hit, almost as beloved as the properties it parodies. With a long-promised sequel finally on the way in 2027 (colon The New One, not colon The Search for More Money), we're visiting a galaxy very, very, very, very far away to see if the Schwartz is still with Spaceballs!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Aside from the release of Christopher Nolan's period piece magician caper The Prestige, the year 2006 had one more trick up its sleeve in the form of Neil Burger's adaptation of Steven Millhauser's short story "Eisenheim the Illusionist." Set in turn-of-the-century Vienna, Austria, the film stars Edward Norton as a poor magician who falls in love with a countess (Jessica Biel) while rivals Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell) and Chief Inspector Uhl (Paul Giamatti) seek to discredit and apprehend him. With a star-studded cast and music by Philip Glass, Burger's film weaved in historical events to cast a spell over audiences and critics alike. And even though it pulled off the trick of getting into cinemas a month and a half before The Prestige, this flick didn't quite steal as much coin as Nolan's. However, both films scored Oscar nominations for their cinematographers - Bill Pope for this one and Wally Pfister for The Prestige - and are roughly tied on ranking sites like Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, and Letterboxd. But where does reality end and imagination begin? We're pulling back the curtain to see if there is truth in The Illusionist!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

This week on A New England Legends Podcast, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to Falmouth, Maine, to investigate the astonishing true story of a man struck by lightning in 1980 whose life took an extraordinary turn afterward. Fact, folklore, and a twist so incredible it sounds impossible collide in one of Maine's most remarkable legends.

On this week's episode, Al sits down with Jermaine from Stately Home Developments, a luxury renovation and construction brand built from the ground up over the last five years. Jermaine's path into the trades is one of the most unexpected we've come across. Starting out on weekends with his granddad doing kitchen and bathroom fits in East London, he quickly realised construction was where he belonged. But before going all in, he took a serious detour into the world of acting, extra work on Spider-Man sets, BBC and ITV productions, film festivals, networking with directors, and eventually a gig in Atlanta after living in Malta and South Africa. When Covid hit, he came back to the UK and went full steam ahead with Stately Home Developments, and hasn't looked back. In this episode, we cover how social media has transformed the way he wins work, why putting your face to the brand gives you the upper hand before you even arrive on site, what he learned watching a terrible builder somehow win premium jobs, the real cost of running a construction business on relationships and mental load, and why investing in yourself early is always cheaper than waiting.

Nineteen Sixty-Four was a huge year for cinema, especially for movie musicals. Mary Poppins and My Fair Lady went one and two at the annual box office, with the French film The Umbrellas of Cherbourg and The Beatles' first film, A Hard Day's Night, becoming breakout hits. But for his birth year pick, Rum Daddy didn't play along with the band. He went with Bond. James Bond. Yes, the third outing for the British superspy landed in third place at the '64 box office, cementing the budding franchise's blockbuster status. Starring Sean Connery as Ian Fleming's secret agent once again, the film established many of the series' standards, including the pre-title action sequence and the "now pay attention, 007," briefing by Desmond Llewelyn's Q, followed by the introduction of many gadgets and the iconic Aston Martin DB-5. And then there's the titular villain, played by Gert Fröbe, who can't quite help explaining his entire evil plan to the hero and his silent-but-imposing henchman, Oddjob, who has invented weaponized headwear. And, of course, we must have a Bond girl, or four, toplined by Honor Blackman as the improbably named Pussy Galore. But does Rum Daddy have the Midas Touch? Is this not only the best film from the year he was born, but could it also be the best Bond movie ever?

Deep in the abandoned ruins of Livermore, nature has swallowed a town devastated by fire, disease, and disaster — but some say its darkest stories never died.

On this Episode of Trade Legends, we talk about how Britain needs 25,000 new electricians a year. We're producing maybe 5,000. Mark Allison has spent 20 years in the electrical industry and is now on a mission to fix the training crisis from the inside, hands-on, accredited, no shortcuts. We get into the £12k course scams robbing people blind, why employers have stopped taking apprentices, what the government keeps getting wrong, and why the next decade is going to make electricians seriously wealthy, if they're ready for it.

In 2011, director Tate Taylor adapted Kathryn Stockett's bestselling novel into a feature film with an all-star cast including Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, Emma Stone, Bryce Dallas Howard, Jessica Chastain, Allison Janney, Cicely Tyson, and Sissy Spacek all getting a piece of the pie. Set among upper-class white families in early 1960s Jackson, Mississippi, aspiring journalist Skeeter (Stone) chronicles the lives of the black maids who play pivotal roles in running households and raising children, against the backdrop of segregation and the struggle for civil rights. The film sliced off a decadent $222 million against its $25 million budget, and scored multiple Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Actress (Davis) and two nods for Best Supporting Actress for Chastain and Spencer, with the latter actress taking home the statue. However, the film left a bad taste in some critics' mouths, who called out "white savior" tropes and the film's playbook "awards bait" scripting. Now we're taking out our notebooks, pouring ourselves a glass of sweet tea, and washing down a second helping of dessert for The Help!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

Luke Freeman joins the Trade Legends podcast to talk about life as a self-employed electrician for two years. We cover the apprenticeship journey, going self-employed with no domestic experience, cash-flow realities, toxic trades on social media, pricing wars, and why building your reputation matters more than your follower count.

The SD SportScene Legends Podcast Season 1, Episode 16. Guest is former Eureka standout hurdler Holly (Wanner) Hoffman.

Around the same time that cinematic universes began to dominate every multiplex, one satire landed like a live grenade tossed directly into Hollywood's lap. Co-written, directed by, and starring Ben Stiller, the movie follows the catastrophically doomed production of an over-budget Vietnam War epic whose cast of self-absorbed actors - including Stiller's fading action hero, Jack Black's substance-abusing comedy star, and Robert Downey Jr. as a thespian who goes a little too method - find themselves dropped into a real jungle conflict in a parody proudly following in the footsteps of The Three Amigos and Galaxy Quest. Along with a platoon of scene-stealers and a nearly unrecognizable Tom Cruise, the film took a proverbial machete to prestige filmmaking, Oscar bait performances, and celebrity egos with a ferocity rarely seen in big-budget studio comedies. While it's undeniable that the film was a critical and commercial success, it feels equally unbelievable that Downey's performance earned him an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. But nearly twenty years later, does this savage send-up of Hollywood excess still land laughs with explosive energy, or has "cancel" culture invaded film discourse to the point that merely discussing it feels like wading into a minefield? Join us as we pop open a fresh can of Booty Sweat, crank some Ludacris, and prepare to put ourselves in the shit with Tropic Thunder!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

This week on Trade Legends, Sophie McGee is a third-year electrical apprentice, and she's had the full experience, good employers, bad ones, and everything in between. We talk about leaving nursing mid-COVID, getting into the trades with zero background, the apprenticeship system that's quietly falling apart, and why more women in trades is good for everyone. Honest, straight-talking, and worth your time whether you're an apprentice, an employer, or just thinking about making a change.

Thirty-five years ago, Steven Spielberg released his updated take on the classic children's story Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie. Arriving in theaters in 1991 with enormous expectations, the film was toplined by four actors at the height of their fame: Robin Williams stars as an aged-up Peter, fresh off Dead Poets Society and Awakenings - and just a year away from Aladdin and Mrs. Doubtfire; Dustin Hoffman, riding high after his Oscar win for Rain Man, as the titular Captain Hook; Julia Roberts, newly-minted as America's sweetheart after Pretty Woman, donning the wings as Tinkerbell; and Bob Hoskins as Mister Smee, following up his breakout blockbuster Who Framed Roger Rabbit. With a prime Christmas release date and a sweeping John Williams score, the film looked destined to become an instant Spielberg swashbuckling classic. Instead, a famously troubled production - marked by massive (and expensive) sets, shooting that ran 40 days over schedule, and a strained relationship between director Spielberg and ingénue Roberts - resulted in a film that critics were quick to call indulgent and uneven. Spielberg himself later admitted frustration with the project, and despite solid box‑office returns, the film was seen as a disappointment during a peak period of Spielberg's career. And yet the pixie dust of nostalgia has quietly rewritten the narrative: the film has become something of a cult favorite, embraced by fans who grew up with VHS rewatches. Now we're dropping anchor in Pirates Bay to see if Hook conjures up any happy thoughts, or if it is better off getting lost, boy!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

On September 13, 1979, animators Don Bluth, Gary Goldman and John Pomeroy left the feature animation department at Walt Disney Productions to set up their own independent animation studio. Their first feature, directed by Bluth, was based on the 1971 children's book Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH by Robert C. O'Brien. The book had originally been rejected by their former employer as "too dark" to be a commercial success. Bluth and Co. were followed soon after by twenty other Disney animators, dubbed "The Disney Defectors" by the trade press. The House of Mouse endured a "Dark Age," with flops like 1985's The Black Cauldron, while Bluth went on to direct hits like An American Tale, The Land Before Time, and All Dogs Go to Heaven. But the film that started it all, an adaptation of that book Disney rejected, was beloved by critics - even if it may have emotionally scarred a generation of children.

Chirag is back on Trade Legends, and this time he's revealing all, including how he went from recruitment and estate agency to qualifying as a gas engineer in just two weeks. We get into whether that's actually enough to be safe on the job, the real cowboys in the industry, growing a YouTube channel to 16K subscribers, why long-form content beats shorts every time, the customer comments that make every tradesperson's blood boil, and why consistency is the only thing that actually builds a career.

Robin Williams was already a comedy and TV star based on his stand-up and starring role in Mork & Mindy. He'd also ventured into film with the films Popeye, The World According to Garp, and Moscow on the Hudson as modest successes. It wasn't until 1987 when he starred in a Vietnam War-era comedy that propelled him to mega-stardom. Based on the true-life experiences of Armed Forces Radio Service DJ Adrian Cronauer, Williams heavily improvised much of the on-and-off the air humor as he tries to cheer up the troops from his recording booth in Saigon. For the role, Williams won a Golden Globe and scored his first Oscar nomination, and the film's album won a Grammy for best Comedy Album. Now Legends Podcast waking up early - we're doing it for the troops! - to say: Good Morning, Vietnam!   ITHACON 49 is Saturday, April 25th, and Sunday, April 26th, at Ithaca College in Ithaca, NY!

In this episode of the LEGENDS: Podcast by All Day Vinyl host Scott Dudelson sits down with legendary drummer Carmine Appice to trace a career that began in the late 1960s and shaped generations of rock drummers. Appice reflects on his work with Vanilla Fudge, Cactus, Beck Bogart & Appice, and long stints performing and co-writing with Rod Stewart, plus decades of session and touring work with artists from Pink Floyd to Ozzy Osbourne. The episode highlights Appice's new Cactus album, Temple of the Blues Part Two, a collaborative blues record featuring more than a dozen guest rock legends and reinterpretations of songs by Howlin' Wolf, Jimi Hendrix and classic Cactus material. Carmine explains his recording process—starting with drums, building demos, and choosing guest vocalists—and shares how the project grew from his love of a little-known blues-rock album. Listeners get insider stories about co-writing global hits like “Do You Think I'm Sexy?” and “Young Turks” with Rod Stewart, and memories of close friendships and encounters with Jeff Beck, Jimi Hendrix, Prince and others. Appice also discusses wild early days with Vanilla Fudge, odd management ties, and career highs and lows including with Jeff Beck and Blue Murder projects. The conversation touches on technology, from using AI in videos and song experiments to his stance on streaming platforms, and closes with plans for future Cactus All-Star shows and collaborations with contemporary players. This episode is full of behind-the-scenes anecdotes, songwriting insights, and reflections on a life in rock.

A figure no one could explain stepped out of the darkness and directly into the headlights… metallic, unnatural… and trying to stop passing cars in the dead of night. In 1967, multiple drivers—and even police—reported a bizarre “spaceman” along Route 44 in Avon, Connecticut. Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger chase down the legend of the Talcott Mountain Robot, where eyewitness accounts blur the line between hoax, encounter, and something far harder to explain.

Director Christopher Nolan made his mark in the mid-2000s with Batman Begins and The Dark Knight, starring Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne. But between these two blockbusters, Nolan and Bale teamed up on another project, an adaptation of Christopher Priest's 1995 epistolary novel about two rival magicians in late 1800s England, with Hugh Jackman playing Bale's frenemy. In the mix are Michael Caine, Rebecca Hall, Scarlett Johansson, Piper Perabo, and Andy Serkis, with David Bowie appearing as inventor Nikola Tesla. The modestly budgeted film successfully wowed audiences, earning over $100 million at the box office, and it scored Oscar noms for Best Art Direction and Best Cinematography. Now we're watching very closely to see if The Prestige still holds up twenty years later. Or, perhaps, its tricks no longer fool us… because you either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Oh, no! Wrong movie!

We're hitting the road with actors Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon (playing fictionalized versions of themselves) to the North of England. Exploring the immortal poetry of Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Wordsworth, and ABBA, the film combines gastro-tourism, mid-life crises, impressions, song, and more impressions in a road-trip odd couple buddy comedy that somehow always keeps its foot on the laugh track. (Okay, it doesn't actually have a laugh track, but you get the joke.) Originally a 6-episode TV series, director Michael Winterbottom recut the largely improvised scenes into a movie, which hit 89% on Rotten Tomatoes and has led to further excursions to Italy, Spain, and Greece, with a fifth outing on the way.

Legends Podcast is heading to Korea for Netflix's most successful original release ever! Based on - holy moley - this is an original I.P.?! It's not a comic or video game? Wow! Based on an original idea by co-director Maggie Kang, this 2025 film from Sony Pictures Animation centers on an all-girl trio of K-pop superstars who also happen to be their generation's protectors from an ever-present invasion of demons from the underworld. Uniting the world in song, these K-pop demon hunters headlined the most-watched original title in Netflix history, leading to the widest release by number of theaters for a Netflix film, and the first Netflix flick to top the box office in the United States. The soundtrack was the first to have four songs in the Top Ten of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time, and the film brought home the Golden Globe and Academy Awards for Best Original Song and Best Animated Feature. Now we're k-ashing in on the k-phenomenon that is KPop Demon Hunters!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

A city on edge. A light in the sky that refused to behave. Just days before Christmas 1909, thousands in Worcester looked up—and saw something they couldn't explain. Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger trace the night a glowing craft circled the city, igniting one of New England's earliest mass UFO sightings… and a mystery that still hasn't landed.

Court is in session on this 2001 Reese Witherspoon star vehicle, based on the book by Amanda Brown, who channeled her own real-life experiences as a blonde Stanford law student into a book that sparked a studio bidding war. Reese Witherspoon faced her own struggles landing the lead role after being typecast as Tracy Flick from Election. However, with her turn as Elle Woods, a fashion-forward Harvard Law student who proves that beauty and brains can go together, Reese Witherspoon found a breakout role and theatergoers found an instant classic. It's not just Reese Witherspoon; also with her are Luke Wilson, Jennifer Coolidge, Selma Blair, Ali Larter, Holland Taylor, and Victor Garber. Opening with just a $20 million first weekend, the film directed by Robert Luketic went on to earn $142 million at the global box office as a sleeper hit. This strong precedent has led to sequel, a Broadway musical, a reality TV show about casting the musical, a direct-to-video spin-off, and now there's an Amazon prequel series, Elle, set to debut in July. Ever the arbiters of justice and good taste, our hosts will now sit in judgement of the age-old adage: blondes have more fun. It may not be fair, it may not be easy, but it is Legally Blonde!

We're dropping our first listener pick of 2026, and it comes from twenty-five years ago, courtesy of Listener Bryan. In 2001, actor-turned-director Peter Howitt released his sophomore film (following 1998's Sliding Doors), a techno-thriller with a hot young cast including Ryan Phillippe, Claire Forlani, and Rachael Leigh Cook. In the film, tech mogul Gary Winston (played by Tim Robbins) aims to revolutionize global communication, but he might be literally killing the competition to get there. The film boasts set designs by Catherine Hardwicke and a rocking score by Don Davis, but it just didn't click with audiences. So while the film itself crashed at the box office upon release in January 2001, it did set Listener Bryan on his course towards a career in tech. In an age when giant software companies still rule our lives - and spy on us - does a film about a giant software company spying on and ruling lives still ring true? Or does Antitrust belong in the Recycle Bin?

What happens when a dead outlaw becomes a sideshow attraction? Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to Washington, Maine, to trace the bizarre origin of Elmer J. McCurdy—a failed criminal whose story took a shocking turn after death. Unclaimed and embalmed, his body began a decades-long journey through carnivals, sideshows, and roadside attractions. Over time, the attraction became so ordinary that people forgot the truth: the “prop” hanging in plain sight had once been a real human being. One of America's strangest true tales of crime, death, and sideshow legend begins in small-town Maine.

Aspiring screenwriter Max Frye wrote a spec script in film school about a straitlaced yuppie's "best worst night ever," which his agent later told him would be perfect for either Martin Scorsese or Jonathan Demme to direct. Since Scorsese was busy on another "yuppie's best worst night ever" movie, After Hours, Demme ended up getting the nod. Demme cast Jeff Daniels as the yuppie Charlie Driggs, with Melanie Griffith as the proto-Manic Pixie Dream Girl Lulu, who sweeps him up for a weekend that starts with sex and ends in terror at the hands of her jealous ex, played by Ray Liotta. This sex-comedy/thriller mashup boasts a fantastic soundtrack and character actor cameos galore, but is the fun worth the hangover?

Nineteen Seventy-Six. America's bicentennial was a great year for cinema, with films like A Star is Born, King Kong, All the President's Men, Carrie, and The Omen heating up the box office, and instant classics Rocky and Network earning the most accolades. After a six-decade career in the director's chair, Alfred Hitchcock released his last film, Family Plot, around the same time that an up-and-coming young director by the name of Martin Scorsese released his breakout hit, the fifth film of his budding career. Centered on a disillusioned New York cabbie played by Robert De Niro, this rain-and-neon-soaked meditation on summer in the city proved to be a defining outing by both actor and director. With a cast including Cybill Shephard, Albert Brooks, Peter Boyle, Harvey Keitel, and a very young Jodie Foster, the film racked up awards, including the Palme d'Or at Cannes and four nominations at the Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor for De Niro, and Best Supporting Actress for Foster. Despite controversies over its content, the film was hailed as a hit. Now, fifty years later, we're catching a ride with Taxi Driver and talking to you about it!   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.

In this episode of Pinch My Salt, we break down the Kelly Slater drama, the Channel Islands vs Firewire controversy, and the latest conversation around Stab in the Dark. Was Kelly Slater wrong to leave Channel Islands Surfboards? Did he “betray” Al Merrick and Britt Merrick, or was it a smart business move after everything he gave to surfing? We get into the history of Kelly Slater and Channel Islands, why so many surfers are calling him a snake, and why we think the story is way more complicated. This is a full Kelly Slater podcast discussion with surf industry talk, board brand politics, sponsorship money, Firewire surfboards, Quiksilver, and why legends don't always get paid what they're worth.

A frozen pond. A perfect circle cut through the ice. And something black waiting below the surface. On this episode of New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to rural Wakefield, where a baffling winter discovery in January of 1977 launched one of New England's strangest UAP investigations. After a local farmer found a precise three-foot circle melted through thick ice on his pond, he peered into the shallow water and saw something impossible—a solid black cube resting on the bottom. Police were called. Radiation was detected. The National Guard got involved. And then… the answers vanished. Was it military? Extraterrestrial? Or something even stranger hiding beneath the ice? More than four decades later, The Wakefield UAP Mystery remains unsolved—an eerie reminder that some encounters leave evidence behind… but take their explanations with them.

It looks like a joke… until you realize no one knows who started it—or why it keeps growing. On this episode of New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger travel to Lincoln to investigate one of New England's strangest and most beloved roadside mysteries: Ponyhenge. Since mysteriously appearing in 2010, this odd “henge” of toy horses has grown, vanished, and re-emerged again and again—always changing, always anonymous, and always raising the same question: who keeps rebuilding it? From ancient-looking arrangements to modern folklore in real time, The Ancient Mystery of Ponyhenge explores how legends are born, evolve, and take on lives of their own—even in plain sight.

On this episode of New England Legends, Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger head to Sterling, where a quiet stretch of Main Street hides one of New England's strangest roadside mysteries. Locals say this land once belonged to a witch—and she never gave it up. Put your car in neutral on Gravity Hill, take your foot off the brake, and something unseen is said to push you uphill, driving trespassers off her property. Is it a ghostly shove from beyond the grave…or a trick of gravity, perception, and folklore? With engines off and nerves on edge, Jeff and Ray put the legend to the test, separating physics from paranormal in a place where the road may have a mind of its own. Neutral gear. No engine. No explanations.Just one haunting question—what's really pushing you uphill?
