Podcast appearances and mentions of Lily Tomlin

Hour 3 (9.03) Star Wars takes up 7% of George Lucas's new billion-dollar museum. Mark Sanchez agrees to plead guilty in the Indianapolis stabbing case, and Dolly Parton was laid to rest in a private family service. 8:05 — Mark Sanchez and Marion County prosecutors filed a joint motion to cancel his September 8 jury trial and set a guilty plea and sentencing hearing instead. The charges stem from an October 2025 fight outside a downtown Indianapolis hotel over a parking spot, where Sanchez was stabbed in the chest and a 69-year-old truck driver was seriously injured. Sanchez faced a felony battery count plus misdemeanors including public intoxication. Fox let him go; Drew Brees took the booth. Also, Rob and Michele Reiner's son Jake married Maria Gilfillan in a small private ceremony in August, eight months after his parents were killed in their Brentwood home. 8:20 — The $111 billion Paramount Skydance–Warner Bros. Discovery merger is frozen. Twelve state attorneys general led by California's Rob Bonta sued in July, the Writers Guild filed its own suit the next day, and a federal judge set trial for March 2, 2027. Paramount agreed to hold the deal until as late as June 1, 2027, and starts paying WBD shareholders $7 million a day at the end of September. Plus the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, the billion-dollar Exposition Park building George Lucas and Mellody Hobson put next to the Coliseum. Thirty-plus galleries across 100,000 square feet, Norman Rockwell and Jack Kirby and Frida Kahlo, and Star Wars occupying about seven percent of it. Opens to the public September 22 — $25 for adults, free for kids under 12 and students. 8:35 — Dolly Parton died August 25 at 80 after a brief battle with cancer and was laid to rest three days later in a private service at Woodlawn Memorial Park in Nashville, buried beside Carl Dean, her husband of nearly 60 years. Jane Fonda, who recruited her for 9 to 5 and gave her her first movie role, got visibly emotional talking about her days after the funeral — including the lunch break where Parton drummed out "9 to 5" on her fingernails for Fonda and Lily Tomlin. 8:50 — The Season 35 cast dropped on GMA: Julia Stiles, Jenna Dewan, Tatyana Ali, Tyler Cameron, Giada De Laurentiis, Harry Shum Jr., Olympic figure skater Amber Glenn, and Jimmy Kimmel's Guillermo Rodriguez. Two-night premiere September 15 and 16. Sixteen celebrities. How many can you name? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when an Amazon delivery driver sees a cooler of cake pops next to a sign that basically says “treat yourself”? Apparently, you get a social media controversy, an apology, a payment, an angry bakery owner, and millions of people choosing sides over four dollars' worth of dessert. Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, where today's funny podcast begins with celebrity birthdays and quickly escalates into the Great Cake Pop Incident.First, Rizz runs through another batch of celebrity birthdays, including Zendaya, Gloria Estefan, Billy Blanks, Dr. Phil, Barry Gibb, and Lily Tomlin. Naturally, Billy Blanks gives Rafe the opportunity to explain how knowing Tae Bo has apparently prepared him for street combat. Nothing says “please don't fight me” quite like threatening a man with a dance kick.Then we get to Homemade Haven Porch Bakery and an Amazon delivery driver named Wes, who grabs one $4 cake pop after seeing a “treat yourself” sign near a cooler of baked goods. Wes says he thought the treats were being left out for delivery drivers. Instead of a simple misunderstanding, the bakery posts Ring camera footage online, asks people to identify him, and calls him a thief.Wes apologizes. His wife sends the bakery $5. He even asks people NOT to boycott the business.Surely everybody acts like reasonable adults from there.Oh, sweet innocent listener.The bakery doubles down, the internet discovers the story, and suddenly millions of people are debating porch etiquette, social media shaming, small-business behavior, and whether anyone committing an actual cake-pop heist would really stop after stealing exactly one.After dessert-based international diplomacy fails, First Alert 4 morning anchors Claire Kellett and Maurice Drummond join the show to talk about the launch of First Alert 4 on ABC in St. Louis. We compare morning-show schedules and discover that waking up around 2:30 a.m. is apparently a perfectly normal lifestyle choice when you've abandoned all hope of respecting your circadian rhythm.Claire and Maurice talk about balancing early mornings with family life, the changing television business, working alongside people who become family, and what it means to be part of the daily routine for viewers across St. Louis. Maurice looks back on his years covering sports, including Cardinals World Series celebrations, the Blues winning the Stanley Cup, and Mizzou's huge win over Kansas at Arrowhead. Claire shares memories from covering Ferguson and talks about growing up in the St. Louis area before eventually coming home to work in local television.And because this is still a funny podcast, the serious media conversation naturally includes Steve Templeton memes, jokes about shirtless weather coverage, Rizz being called a bridge troll, questionable radio wardrobes, vitamin D deprivation, free donuts, and the realization that everybody working in morning media is basically hanging on by a thread.Claire and Maurice also explain what First Alert 4 expanding onto ABC means for St. Louis viewers: more news, weather, sports and traffic, plus major ABC programming and sports coverage. We even begin the extremely official campaign to get Maurice sent to the Super Bowl, because apparently this radio show now controls television travel budgets.By the end, we've covered celebrity birthdays, viral cake-pop justice, careers in St. Louis media, World Series locker rooms, Ferguson, morning-show exhaustion, college kids leaving home, TV budgets, Steve Templeton's imaginary abs, and the powerful advertising potential of a decent free T-shirt.In other words: another perfectly organized episode of your favorite funny podcast.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 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.

Rizz is preparing for his extremely prestigious duties as a Wing Ding judge, specifically in the traditional buffalo category, which is apparently the kind of responsibility this show has been training him for his entire life. The crew debates proper wing-eating strategy, whether fasting beforehand is genius or idiotic, and naturally gets Joey Chestnut involved in the conversation without Joey Chestnut actually being there to defend himself.Then there's actual rock-star business: Chad Gray of Mudvayne is coming into the studio. That sends everybody down memory lane with LD 50, old Mudvayne tattoos, central Illinois geography and the important question nobody else had the courage to ask: what exactly does “Mudvayne” mean? Welcome to the hard-hitting journalism portion of your favorite funny podcast.September also means Sober September, an idea Rizz immediately rejects because there's a wedding coming up and apparently his liver already accepted the calendar invite. The gang talks declining alcohol consumption, cocktail attire, velvet suits, bolo ties and the possibility of Rafe attending a wedding dressed like a cowboy who recently discovered formalwear.The substance discussion somehow gives way to altitude sickness, canned oxygen and e-bikes capable of sending a teenager to school at highway speeds. With local schools introducing new rules for electric bikes and scooters, the crew reminisces about riding regular bikes to school—the primitive version that required legs, poor planning and occasionally missing first period.The crew dives into reports of understaffing, blind spots, online creep behavior and the increasingly obvious conclusion that some people desperately need hobbies that don't result in police reports.Just when you thought Vin Diesel's greatest contribution to emotional storytelling involved family, fast cars, and staring intensely into the middle distance, he goes and surprises everybody with a heartfelt tribute to Dolly Parton.Welcome back to The Rizzuto Show, the funny podcast where we apparently begin with Vin Diesel singing “I Will Always Love You” and somehow get MORE unpredictable from there.The crew tries to identify the mystery celebrity behind the surprisingly vulnerable performance before learning it's Vin Diesel—and, against all reasonable expectations, everybody is impressed. His deep voice and emotional delivery lead to the obvious conclusion that somebody should probably get this man “Ol' Man River” immediately.Keanu's mother, Patricia Taylor, worked as a costume designer for Dolly, including creating the famous black bunny outfit Dolly wore for her 1978 Playboy cover. That outfit eventually made its way into the Reeves household, where teenage Keanu reportedly wore it for Halloween—bunny ears, bustier, fishnets, bow tie, sneakers and all. Somehow, this only strengthens the crew's argument that Keanu Reeves may be next in line for the title of universally beloved celebrity.From there, Crap on Celebrities gets moving with Miley Cyrus seemingly entering her one-name era, discussion surrounding Kelly Osbourne and public speculation about her appearance, and Bad Wolves releasing their metal version of “Jolene.” The crew also gets into the Sphere making The Wizard of Oz even more ridiculous, chart talk, Lionel Richie's health scare following his St. Louis performance, ZZ Top continuing forward, Kelly Clarkson wrapping her talk show, Jamie Pressley's reported hotel drama, and Mel Gibson apologizing after an awkward moment involving a sign-language interpreter.Then Chad Gray joins the show ahead of his 30 Years of Madness stop at Delmar Hall, and the conversation turns into a trip through three decades of heavy music.Chad talks about building a set from roughly 12 albums of material across Mudvayne and HELLYEAH, including deep cuts that force him to keep lyric sheets nearby because apparently even the guy who wrote the songs occasionally needs the musical equivalent of checking his notes.He explains how he's kept his voice intact after decades of screaming and singing, what he learned from vocal coach Melissa Cross, and how his approach has evolved from essentially hitting every note “like a linebacker” to using more technique and finesse.What happens when an Amazon delivery driver sees a cooler of cake pops next to a sign that basically says “treat yourself”?

On the last episode of The Treehouse Show, Dan declared that Mortal Kombat 2 was awful — and apparently that made some people VERY unhappy.So Trey watched it over the weekend to settle the debate. The verdict? Dan's taste in movies might be the real problem. Trey actually liked Mortal Kombat 2… although Karl Urban may have been the worst part of it.That sends us straight into the huge announcement about Days of Thunder 2. Cole Trickle is headed back to the big screen, Anne Hathaway is apparently part of the conversation, and once we establish that Randy Quaid is, in fact, still alive, we ask the bigger question: Can Tom Cruise miss anymore? Then it's Celebrity Birthdays with Lily Tomlin, a little Dolly Parton discussion, and Zendaya turning 30 while continuing one hell of a career run.And finally, we head to New Mexico for the Green Chile Sauce Murder — where a man allegedly shot his cousin during an argument over whose green chile sauce was hotter.Hopefully prison serves red.It's movies, celebrities, terrible decisions, and completely unnecessary violence over condiments on The Treehouse Show.About the show:Leave your worries outside and join Dan O'Malley, Trey Trenholm, and their hilarious guests for laughs about funny news and viral stories with ridiculous commentary inside the Treehouse Show. 

Rest In Peace to the legendary Dolly Parton. (1946 to 1986)In honor of he recent tragic passing, what better way to remember her than to review this '80's comedy classic, which was also her big screen debut.  Directed by Collin Higgins (Foul Play, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas), this is a frenetic tale of sexism, office politics, suspected murder, and REVENGE.  It focuses on three beleaguered co-workers at a fictional conglomerate named Judy (Oscar-winner Jane Fonda), Violet (Emmy-winner Lily Tomlin), and Doralee (Grammy-winner Dolly Parton)....and their despicable boss Frank played by late, great Emmy-winner Dabney Coleman (Tootsie, Wargames).  Frank has taken things way too far with his behavior as he has mistreated them all terribly, then an accident occurs, and then hilarity ensues!  Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/ 

In this episode of JJ Meets World, JJ and Tucker remember Dolly Parton through the music, movies, philanthropy, humor, and humanity that made her one of the most beloved entertainers in American culture. The conversation touches on her early career with Porter Wagoner, the stories behind "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You," the Imagination Library, Dollywood, children's literacy, and the rare kind of public affection Dolly earned across generations. JJ and Tucker also revisit Dolly Parton's work in film, including 9 to 5, Straight Talk, Rhinestone, Steel Magnolias, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas, and The Beverly Hillbillies. Along the way, they celebrate Jim Varney, Cloris Leachman, Dabney Coleman, Lily Tomlin, Julie Andrews, Mr. Rogers, and the question of what makes someone not just famous, but genuinely loved. 00:00 Intro: Remembering Dolly Parton 01:04 Dolly Parton's Legacy Hits Hard 01:33 Two Doors Down and Early Dolly Memories 01:48 Dolly Parton, Porter Wagoner, and Jolene 03:20 I Will Always Love You and Leaving Porter Wagoner 04:00 Porter Wagoner Sues Dolly Parton 04:45 Dolly Buys Porter Wagoner's Music Catalog 05:28 Rebuilding Burned Bridges 05:58 Dolly Parton's Imagination Library 07:19 How the Imagination Library Works 08:16 Fargo Rotary and Local Imagination Library Support 09:03 Coat of Many Colors and Dolly's Message 09:21 9 to 5 and Dolly's Movie Career 09:55 Straight Talk, Radio Advice, and Southern Wisdom 10:51 Rhinestone, Sylvester Stallone, and Dolly's Kindness 11:49 Steel Magnolias and a Powerhouse Cast 12:14 Dolly Parton, COVID Vaccines, and Public Trust 12:29 Dolly in The Beverly Hillbillies Movie 13:01 Buying The Beverly Hillbillies Soundtrack 13:24 Why The Beverly Hillbillies Is a Perfect Adaptation 13:48 Cloris Leachman as Granny 14:10 Diedrich Bader, Dabney Coleman, and Lily Tomlin 15:03 Jim Varney as Jed Clampett 16:13 Could The Beverly Hillbillies Work Today? 17:25 Leah Thompson and Superhero Fan Casting 17:45 Tucker's Childhood Dolly Parton Crush 18:29 Was Dolly the Last Universally Loved Icon? 19:37 Caregiving, Health, and Dolly's Final Years 20:35 The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas 22:24 Dolly Parton and Burt Reynolds 22:48 Dom DeLuise, the Watchdog Report, and the Governor 23:35 Why the Musical Still Works 24:38 Dolly Was Always Ahead of Her Time 25:35 Dolly Parton Chose Not to Be a Billionaire 26:14 Dollywood and Dolly's Childhood Home 26:33 Is There Anyone Else Like Dolly? 27:18 Cher, Julie Andrews, and Cultural Warmth 29:06 The Princess Diaries and Julie Andrews' Later Career 30:07 Dolly Parton at Christmas 30:24 Dolly Parton's Songwriting and Acrylic Nails 31:06 Dolly's Magical Ability to Connect 31:36 Outro 32:14 Final Tag: Holidays at Dolly's House

This one was Meta AI - it's a free model and it did a pretty good job. Obviously I am not going to read that and neither will anyone else, but outside of the lack of brevity here it's a decent write up. Well done, Mark. EPISODE TITLE OPTIONSUse one as main title, others as alternates for SEO:One Nation's Immigration Muddle, 18C on Trial, and Tampa 25 Years OnFarley the Throwback, AI Bubble Warnings and the Swans Self-DestructFrom Narrandera to Norway: Immigration, Data Centres and Banning AI in SchoolsThe Two Jacks on Pauline Hanson vs 18C, the UK's Boat Camps and America's Voting MessCocaine Capital, $600 Grams in Perth and a 49ers Billionaire in a Trailer Park StingBloods Culture to Boarding School: Tampa, Tribunals and What Went Wrong at the SwansEPISODE SUMMARYEpisode 170 is a wide-ranging end-of-winter news wrap from Sydney and Hong Kong.Jack the Insider and Hong Kong Jack start with One Nation's confused immigration numbers - David Farley suggesting an intake not far from Labor's, Pauline Hanson unclear on net overseas migration - and ask whether vagueness matters when neither government nor opposition has a clear story either. Farley, the Narrandera-based former Labor aspirant now with One Nation, is singled out as a throwback to old Country Party-style ministers like Doug Anthony, Ian Sinclair and Peter Nixon - rural common sense and real-world experience.The conversation moves to energy and tech. The Albanese government's proposal that new data centres from mid-next year need their own water source and 100% renewable power triggers a debate about global electricity demand. Data centre consumption is projected to double from 460 TWh in 2024 to over 1000 TWh by 2030. The Jacks question small modular nuclear reactors in Australia and warn of an AI investment bubble, with 15% of the S&P 500 now AI-configured and Chinese open-source models undercutting expensive US startups.On law, they unpack Section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act. Context is Pauline Hanson's 2022 tweet to Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi telling her to "piss off back to Pakistan" after Faruqi's comments on Queen Elizabeth, which led to a Federal Court finding and a reported $200,000 penalty. Hanson is seeking leave to appeal to the High Court. The Jacks also discuss the White Australia Party's attempt to circumvent hate-group laws linked to the National Socialist Network and ASIO's role, and debate whether repugnant speech should be illegal.Twenty-five years on from the MV Tampa, they revisit the Howard-era response, children overboard, the excision of Christmas Island and other northern territories from the migration zone, and the legacy of mandatory detention introduced under Keating. Hong Kong Jack draws on his ten years on the Refugee Review Tribunal, including a harrowing self-harm incident during a video hearing in Woomera.Internationally: the UK's new camps for unscheduled boat arrivals after the High Court blocked the Rwanda plan, and the problematic Daily Mail reporting of gyms, football pitches and halal-only food; the US Supreme Court allowing state-based moves to restrict mail-in ballots, the stalled SAVE Act requiring birth certificates to vote and its impact on married women, and why America needs an AEC-style independent electoral commission.The Jacks note Norway banning generative AI in primary schools and restricting it in upper years after a decline in reading and writing, and pay tribute to Dolly Parton and the Dollywood Foundation's 325 million books program as a springboard into phonics vs whole-language teaching. Jack the Insider credits his mother and the Whitlam-era disadvantaged schools program for championing phonics.Court and crime: a mistrial in Pennsylvania after a juror allegedly smoked marijuana in the jury room during a murder trial; and Australia's cocaine problem in the context of the Sydney Swans hotel-room scandal. The Jacks discuss the legal risk of supply of a trafficable quantity (15 years in Victoria), self-reporting data suggesting 4% to 11% usage, 1500 possession arrests in the Eastern Suburbs, $600 a gram in Perth creating a Nullarbor business model, and the shift to crystal meth where cocaine is scarce.Sport to close: Italy's Giorgia Meloni becoming the longest-serving PM of the Italian Republic, polling 25-26% for Brothers of Italy as a buffer against the harder right; the Swans culture piece by Andrew Webster - the end of the Bloods self-sacrifice era of Kirk and Kelly, late nights at the Beach Road and Clovelly Hotels, adult entertainment in the team hotel, four-week bans, presumption of innocence, and Nick Blakey demanding a trade to North Melbourne where his father played; NRL - Roosters and Panthers as premiership threats; AFL - Carlton vs Melbourne as a clash of new game plans; cricket - England vs Pakistan at Lord's, Pakistan in disarray, Babar Azam out of form, and whether Marnus Labuschagne should tour South Africa or if he is at the "thanks for your service" stage; and finally the NFL - the San Francisco 49ers CEO caught in a police sting in East Palestine, Ohio, $140 agreed on WhatsApp, no trailer or brothel at the lot, two days jail with credit for time served and $1000 in fines and costs.Next week: listener feedback on booze and upper-middle-class parenting.SHOW NOTES - TOPICS COVEREDAustralian Politics: One Nation immigration policy split between David Farley and Pauline Hanson, net overseas migration confusion, Albanese wedge politics, Opposition property ban for temporary residents, Labor's delayed immigration announcement and refugee intake numbers.Energy and Technology: Data centres in Australia, water and renewable requirements, small-scale nuclear reactors in Russia and China, global power demand, AI bubble vs dotcom bubble, US vs Chinese AI models, S&P 500 exposure.Law and Free Speech: Section 18C - offend, insult, humiliate or intimidate, Pauline Hanson vs Mehreen Faruqi Federal Court decision, High Court leave to appeal process, White Australia Party and National Socialist Network, hate group laws, implied freedom of political communication.Immigration History: 25th anniversary of Tampa, MV Tampa and Captain, Merak and Christmas Island, children overboard, excision of Australian territories, mandatory detention, Woomera, Port Hedland, Villawood and Maribyrnong, Manus Island and Nauru costs.UK and US: UK mandatory processing centres, minibuses, no-document arrivals, security risks and Nick Radev case, Daily Mail coverage; US mail-in ballots, electoral rolls, SAVE Act, automatic voter registration in Oregon/Washington/California, gerrymandering and partisan control, Ross Perot and third-party candidates.Education and Culture: Norway AI ban, iPads in schools, national testing decline, phonics revival in Australia, Dr Seuss, John and Betty readers, Dolly Parton and literacy, scholarships for Year 7 retention.Courts and Drugs: Pennsylvania juror and devil's lettuce mistrial, field sobriety and judge's chambers process, Christian Brothers at St Pat's Ballarat, Sydney Swans scandal and allegations of indecent assault, white powder found, trafficable quantity laws, Australia as highest self-reported cocaine users, Double Bay and Waverley Local Court, cardiac risks.Sport: Swans culture, Isaac Heeney, Chad Warner, Nick Blakey trade to North Melbourne, Andrew Webster SMH column, AFL finals odds Sydney at $34, NRL Warriors Roosters Panthers, Carlton vs Melbourne injuries, England vs Pakistan second Test, Marnus Labuschagne technique and Steve Smith comparison, Ricky Ponting assessment, San Francisco 49ers CEO East Palestine sting.All timestamps below are adjusted by +25 seconds to account for theme music at the top of the episode.TIMESTAMPED HIGHLIGHTS (Adjusted +25s)00:00:25 - Open: End of winter in Sydney and the Highlands, mid-20s, bracing for a stinking hot summer.

Jim Hill and Lauren Hersey remember Dolly Parton by exploring her long and surprisingly deep connection to Disney. Jim recounts the ambitious Feature Animation Florida project that nearly gave Dolly a starring role in a hand-drawn/CG hybrid set in Appalachia, variously known as My Peoples, Angel and Her No Good Sister, and A Few Good Ghosts. They also look back at Dolly's appearances with Disney, her relationship with Miley Cyrus, the growth of Dollywood and the Imagination Library, and Jim's own conversation with the country music legend. HIGHLIGHTS • How Dolly Parton became Miley Cyrus's Aunt Dolly on Hannah Montana. • Dolly's Disney connection stretching back to Walt Disney World's 15th anniversary celebration. • The story behind Barry Cook's abandoned Feature Animation Florida project My Peoples. • Why Disney paired traditional human animation with CG Appalachian folk-art characters. • The all-star voice cast that included Dolly Parton, Lily Tomlin, Ashley Judd, Travis Tritt, Hal Holbrook, and more. • How the project evolved through titles including Elgin's Peoples, Once in a Blue Moon, Angel and Her No Good Sister, and A Few Good Ghosts. • Michael Eisner's enthusiastic reaction shortly before Disney ultimately shut the project down. • How changing attitudes toward hand-drawn animation and Disney's strained relationship with Pixar helped bring the film - and Feature Animation Florida - to an end. • Jim remembers interviewing Dolly about the Imagination Library and asking her about the Disney movie that never made it to theaters.

The Magic School Bus is heading to the big screen for the first time ever, and this one is for the millennials. On this episode of Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down the news that Elizabeth Banks (Hunger Games, 30 Rock, The Lego Movie) is attached to star as the legendary Ms. Frizzle in a live-action adaptation. Rob Letterman, who directed Detective Pikachu, is writing the treatment and directing.We get into why this has been a long time coming, with Legendary having held the rights since 2020 and sitting on the project for about six years. We also talk format: this will not be fully live-action but a hybrid, which likely means a CGI or animated bus, and we float whether the movie will be an origin story or just one of Ms. Frizzle's classic adventures.From there we go nostalgic, looking back at the original 1994 to 1997 PBS series and the icon that is Lily Tomlin, and we get honest about the bigger question: do we even need a remake, or should kids just watch the originals? The answer comes down to access. These stories about friction, motors, and the digestive system still have a lot to teach, and if a new generation gets to ride along with Ms. Frizzle, that is a trip worth taking.00:00 The Magic School Bus Heads to Live-Action00:13 Six Years in Development at Legendary00:25 Hybrid Format and What the Movie Could Be00:33 Franchise History and the Lily Tomlin Legacy00:42 Remake Debate: Do We Need One00:55 Why Ms. Frizzle Still Matters01:11 Listener Question: Your Favorite EpisodeElizabeth Banks is attached to star as Ms. Frizzle in the first-ever live-action Magic School Bus movie.Rob Letterman, director of Detective Pikachu, is writing the treatment and directing.Legendary has held the rights since 2020, so this has been roughly six years in the making.The film will be a hybrid rather than fully live-action, so expect the iconic bus to be CGI or animated.It is still unclear whether the story will be an origin tale or a standalone Magic School Bus adventure.The first books arrived 40 years ago, and the beloved PBS series ran from 1994 to 1997 with Lily Tomlin voicing Ms. Frizzle.The remake conversation lands on access: a lot of kids today simply do not have these classic stories in front of them, and Ms. Frizzle still has plenty to teach."This one's for the millennials.""Lily Tomlin as the voice of Miss Frizzle.

Nick Davis is the director of THIS ORDINARY THING, a documentary about the non-Jews who helped rescue Jews during the Holocaust. It's a collection of fascinating testimonies read by top-caliber actors (including Helen Mirren, Carrie Coon, Lily Tomlin, John Leguizamo, F. Murray Abraham, Lily Rabe) that present a time and place not so dissimilar to our own. These are ordinary people faced with the threat of genocide, the death of their friends and neighbors. Other people who they may consider friends spread hateful rhetoric. The way some people talked about the Jews in this documentary don't seem too far from the ways others will rationalize the Gazan genocide.This modernity is something Davis listed as a goal in this interview, not only as a way to keep this relevant to 2026, but also as the best way to keep these people and their stories alive. It's the ultimate goal of all history, I think, to persist when our bodies cannot.I asked Davis about the stories he couldn't shake, the process of getting Helen Mirren to say yes to the project (something he retells with an air of bewilderment, even as this movie's in the can and available to the public), and the ways which he crafted the story to breathe life back into 1940s Europe.---THIS ORDINARY THING is now available to stream on Prime or rent on Apple TV.Follow The Movies on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Throw a couple dollars in the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tip jar!

THIS ORDINARY THING is a documentary about the non-Jews who risked the lives of themselves and their families in order to hide and rescue Jews during the Holocaust.Testimonies are read by a who's who of actors, including Dame Helen Mirren, Stephen Lang, Stephen Fry, F. Murray Abraham, Lily Tomlin, John Leguizamo and Carrie Coon. I haven't even scratched the surface.This choice is one of many that gives the documentary a modernity that's sobering, frighteningly familiar. As director Nick Davis mentioned in my interview, 1942 seems very close to 2026. These people didn't experience their lives in sepia tone with a cello accompaniment. They didn't have our hindsight; they didn't already know the Nazis would lose.When faced with the persecution and systemic slaughter of their friends and neighbors, under the threat of death by local authorities, they were tested. Do they help or turn their backs? In one of the most relieving turn of events, given the current state of the world, these people helped. If they did, there's no excuse for us, in 2026, to not do the same.---THIS ORDINARY THING is now available to stream on Prime or rent on Apple TV.Listen to my interview with THIS ORDINARY THING director Nick Davis hereFollow The Movies on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Letterboxd⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Throw a couple dollars in the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠tip jar!

When I was sixteen years old, still in high school, I had three little lines in a film called The Sniper. I hardly remembered doing it, a soda fountain scene, a telephone booth, nothing remarkable, but that tiny job paid enough to earn my membership in the Screen Actors Guild. Only years later did it strike me that the film had been produced by Stanley Kramer. He helped launch my career without ever knowing my name. This podcast is powered by Pinecast.

Host Cynthia Bemis Abrams examines the pivotal moments in TV talk show history where hosts overstepped boundaries and guests were challenged to stand up for themselves. Through a series of iconic examples like Lily Tomlin's poised resistance on The Dick Cavett Show and Joan Rivers' sharp retort on CNN, Cynthia highlights the crucial role of media training and self-awareness.When talk show hosts use their power to obtain a newsworthy moment and a guest challenges them, it's like listening to a game of chess.This episode underscores the importance of understanding and asserting personal boundaries in the often unpredictable landscape of unscripted TV.

Mel and Nancy Coplin (Ben Stiller, Patricia Arquette) are a young couple living in New York City who just had their first child.  They can't seem to decide on a name and that's because Mel is feeling lost - he grew up as an adopted child and with the help of Tina (Tea Leoni) from the adoption, he has now been told that they have located who his REAL parents are.  And so the three of them venture off across the country with baby to seek out Mel's real parents - several mistakes are made, several misunderstandings occur, and hilarity ensues!  Written and directed by Oscar-nominee David O. Russell (Silver Linings Playbook, The Fighter, Three Kings, American Hustle) early in his career, this remains one of the more underappreciated indie comedies of the '90's and features a stacked veteran cast including Mary Tyler Moore, George Segal, Lily Tomlin, Alan Alda, Richard Jenkins, and Josh Brolin. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

I'm convinced that the screenplay for this film was generated by AI. Of course, I have no proof for that, but 80 for Brady is so completely bizarre that if AI wasn't involved, I'd like to know what the filmmakers were smoking. It misses the mark at every turn and has so neglected (ignored? forgotten?) the fundamentals of storytelling that not even four legends of stage and screen can save it. This just might be the worst movie ever made. Oy with the poodles already! - V.

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. Path Points of Interest:Julie Brown Medusa: Dare to be TruthfulAttack Of The 5'2" WomenCause I'm a BlondeHomecoming Queen's Got a GunI like em big and StupidVagueJulie Brown on WikipediaJulie Brown on IMDBJulie Brown on InstagramJulie Brown on FacebookJulie Brown on YoutubeTrust Me: The False ProphetLisa Arch on InstagramLisa Arch Presents Mother's Day at FlappersHold You Foundation

Let's learn how to commit murder together! This week's episode is all black comedies about killing someone else! First is Throw Momma From The Train, starring Billy Crystal in Danny DeVito's directorial debut. Then it's Dan Ackroyd, Jack Lemmon, and Lily Tomlin in Getting Away With Murder, a movie so difficult to find you have to hear it to believe how the fellas were able to watch it!

This week on The Video Store Podcast, I am recommending four movies built around one of the simplest and most reliable science fiction ideas there is, shrinking people down. It is a strong trope because every one of these films understands that once a character gets small, nothing has to be exotic to feel dangerous. A bloodstream can look like deep space. A shopping cart can feel absurd and threatening at the same time. A backyard can turn into a full scale survival story. The fun of these movies is not just the effect itself, it is the way each one finds its own tone inside the same basic setup.Fantastic Voyage starts this set in an old-style studio style. Richard Fleischer directed it, Raquel Welch was still early in her career, and the movie ended up winning Academy Awards for art direction and special effects. Isaac Asimov wrote the novelization, which helped give the film an added layer of science fiction prestige even though the movie was not adapted from one of his earlier books. It is still one of those sixties films where the production design does a lot of the selling. You are watching people turn the inside of a human body into a full cinematic world, and they do it with real confidence.The Incredible Shrinking Woman takes the same basic concept and pushes it toward satire. Lily Tomlin is the main reason to see it, and she is surrounded by exactly the kind of bright, slightly unreal suburban world that makes the jokes work. Jane Wagner wrote it, Joel Schumacher directed it, and the movie has a cast that includes Charles Grodin and Ned Beatty. There is also a nice eighties detail in the score, since Suzanne Ciani handled the music, which gives the film one more thing separating it from the older version of this idea. It is not the most famous title in this group, but it feels very specific to its moment, especially in the way it folds consumer culture and household products into the premise.Innerspace may be the easiest recommendation here because it is so good at being funny, fast, and a little chaotic without losing track of the effects work. Joe Dante directed it, Dennis Quaid and Martin Short make a very good mismatch at the center, and the movie won the Academy Award for visual effects. This is one of those late eighties studio movies where the effects are both impressive and funny. It also has that Dante who has a habit of making a mainstream movie feel just a little off center. You can sense the touch of Industrial Light and Magic in the technical side, but it never turns into a dry demonstration reel.Honey, I Shrunk the Kids is a joy to watch. Joe Johnston made his live action directing debut with it, Rick Moranis is exactly right for the inventor at the center, and Disney turned a backyard into a full adventure landscape. It was a major hit, and for a while it stood as Disney's highest grossing live action film. Part of what makes it hold up is that so much of it was built around practical effects, oversized sets, models, puppetry, and carefully staged perspective tricks. It also had Tummy Trouble attached in theaters, so for a lot of people there was a Roger Rabbit bonus built into the experience. That is a pretty good rental memory to have.What I like about putting these four recommendations is that they show how flexible a shrinking movie can be. One plays it as a polished sixties science fiction trip. One turns it into satire. One uses it for special effects comedy with a little manic energy. One makes it into a family adventure that a lot of people probably first met on cable or VHS. Same basic hook, very different results. That is usually a good sign you have a real movie trope and not just a gimmick.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast! Subscribe for free to receive new posts and support my work.

Tonight we examine a Kevin Kline Performance Trilogy—The Pirates of Penzance (1983), De-Lovely (2004), and A Prairie Home Companion (2006)—three films that showcase his command of musicality, wit, and character across eras. Pirates, adapted from the New York Shakespeare Festival production, was directed by Wilford Leach and preserves Gilbert & Sullivan's operetta for film, with Kline's Pirate King earning a Golden Globe nomination and cementing his theatrical pedigree. De-Lovely, directed by Irwin Winkler, casts Kline as Cole Porter in a stylized biopic featuring an ensemble of contemporary artists interpreting Porter's catalog, blending stage sensibility with cinematic structure. Finally, Robert Altman's A Prairie Home Companion captures Kline in a live-wire ensemble alongside Meryl Streep and Lily Tomlin, merging radio nostalgia with Altman's signature overlapping dialogue. Together, these films chart Kline's enduring legacy as a performer who bridges stage and screen, high art and populist entertainment.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59 

This week we are joined by the incomparable Zena Sharman (she/her). Zena is an essayist and non-fiction writer who is a fan and student of the film 9 to 5 (1980). If you don't know the movie, you almost certainly know the song of the same name written and performed by one of its stars, Dolly Parton. And if you don't know the song, you most definitely know the two other leads of the movie: Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda! And if you don't know them, well hell, we can't wait to introduce you!In the episode, Hannah and Zena lead us through a history of the feminist labour organizing that directly led to the film's creation. They introduce us to Karen Nussbaum who co-founded an organization called 9to5 in the early 1970s. Nussbaum and Jane Fonda became friends and allies through anti-Vietnam war organizing and developed 9 to 5 (the film) in effort to surface the struggle of working women at the time.Hannah then draws on work from historian Dorothy Sue Cobble who argues that contemporary disillusionment about feminism has a lot to do with historical amnesia about the actual diversity of feminist organizing. Hannah suggests that the 1980 screwball comedy 9 to 5, with its depiction of women from notably different backgrounds and with pointedly different gender presentations, might be exactly the feminist text we need in our present political moment. The conversation also touches on queer-coded characters in the story and the super queer team behind the film.Come for the love of Dolly Parton and stay for the rich conversation about labour organizing, cultural consumption, moral purity and coalition building!More ZenaZena is the editor of several anthologies, including The Care We Dream Of: Liberatory & Transformative Approaches to LGBTQ+ Health and Lambda Literary Award-winning The Remedy: Queer and Trans Voices on Health and Health Care.

This week we are joined by the incomparable Zena Sharman (she/her). Zena is an essayist and non-fiction writer who is a fan and student of the film 9 to 5 (1980). If you don't know the movie, you almost certainly know the song of the same name written and performed by one of its stars, Dolly Parton. And if you don't know the song, you most definitely know the two other leads of the movie: Lily Tomlin and Jane Fonda! And if you don't know them, well hell, we can't wait to introduce you!In the episode, Hannah and Zena lead us through a history of the feminist labour organizing that directly led to the film's creation. They introduce us to Karen Nussbaum who co-founded an organization called 9to5 in the early 1970s. Nussbaum and Jane Fonda became friends and allies through anti-Vietnam war organizing and developed 9 to 5 (the film) in effort to surface the struggle of working women at the time.Hannah then draws on work from historian Dorothy Sue Cobble who argues that contemporary disillusionment about feminism has a lot to do with historical amnesia about the actual diversity of feminist organizing. Hannah suggests that the 1980 screwball comedy 9 to 5, with its depiction of women from notably different backgrounds and with pointedly different gender presentations, might be exactly the feminist text we need in our present political moment. The conversation also touches on queer-coded characters in the story and the super queer team behind the film.Come for the love of Dolly Parton and stay for the rich conversation about labour organizing, cultural consumption, moral purity and coalition building!More ZenaZena is the editor of several anthologies, including The Care We Dream Of: Liberatory & Transformative Approaches to LGBTQ+ Health and Lambda Literary Award-winning The Remedy: Queer and Trans Voices on Health and Health Care.

Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin star in dual roles as two sets of twins mixed at birth and stumble upon each other 40 years later during a trip to New York City.  Co-starring Fred Ward, Edward Herrmann and Seth Green.

Character actor Sam McMurray's media path winds through connections, coincidences and many, MANY contacts with industry legends (and assorted relations.) Sam carves a path through the backroads of Friends, The Golden Girls, Freaks & Geeks, Raising Arizona, The King Of Queens and beyond while we scramble to keep up!Raised in New York by actor parents, his dad was on The Edge Of Night. His mom graced Broadway and Off Broadway stages and Sam, an athlete, nursed a high school broken heart by running straight for what felt like home, the school theater. He's been an actor ever since.His Hollywood career began when he and his wife headed west in 1986. He was quickly cast in The Jeffersons, The Ropers and Hill Street Blues. He was on his way to becoming one of the most recognizable faces on the screen.Sam shares insights from inside a career defined by a wide range of memorable appearances. He tells the  story of meeting a 17 year old Matthew Perry while working on The Tracey Ullman Show. It would not be until ten years later that Sam's stage directions, on Friends, instructed him to smack Matt in the butt. Sam shares his thoughts and concerns about the migration of Hollywood production to other states and countries and how the audition process has become so much less personal via Zoom calls and self-tapes. We discuss the McCarthy era as Sam's parents were both under fire and even skipped town for Florida when they got wind that a subpoena for his mom to appear before HUAC was heading their way. The red scare and its impact on creative voices has informed the course of his life.We also explore the wide variety of mediums in which he has worked. From television and film to web series, like Then We Got Help! Sam also returned to the stage after many years away. How did he salvage the night when he went up on his lines playing a gravedigger in the 2019 play, Buzz, about groundbreaking British theater director Buzz Goodbody? His story will delight you.He also shares personal anecdotes about legends Jerry Stiller, Anne Meara, Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin, Estelle Getty, Rue McClanahan, Kevin James, Steve Martin, and Tom Hanks.  And, with refreshing honesty, Sam admits that not every role, in a long career, receives the same level of focus. Some projects demand everything an actor has to breathe life into the part, and he'll wonder if there was more he could have given. While others, like The Sopranos, are so brilliantly written that embodying the character is a joy.By the time we made our way to IMDB Roulette we knew that this was an interview to be studied and interpreted by future entertainment historians, as Sam guides us through the threads and relationships which become the fabric of our entertainment. In current recommendations --Lisa: Author & Content Creator Derrick Downey Jr. on InstagramWeezy: The Traitors on PeacockPath Points of Interest:Sam McMurray.comSam McMurray on WikipediaSam MacMurray on IMDBSam McMurray on CameoDerrick Downey Jr. on InstagramThe Traitors

In the majestic kingdom of sleep where the heavens are transformed into a silken washhouse of torrential storms, the clouds are wrung dry by invisible hands while heinous blonde flamingos are carried off to a prison of unimaginable cruelty. As flocks of braying geese vanish and reappear as if by magic, I open my body into impossible splits and liquid arcs of dance so resplendent that the very air seems to blush at my elegance. Out of the ether appears Ana De Armas, her tender hand taking mine as we enter a fevered tango of devotion and spin, dipping low into miraculous splits before sharing a simple fruit cup; juicy grapes exchanged like a blessed sacrament. At the crest of this joyful chaos as our limousine runs out of gas, dawn intrudes with its blunt cruelty as I awake. Lily Tomlin laughs as I ache, my heart plunged into a deep despair by the knowledge that flight, fruit cups, and the beauty of the perfect split show their resplendence in a land that exists only when my eyes are closed.

Veteran comedy writer Matt Neuman, whose story starts all the way back in the early 70s, joins us today to share his SNL story. He talks about the creation of his own sketch comedy show, The Chicken Little Show (where Father Guido Sarducci made his television debut 6 years before appearing on Saturday Night Live), working with a pre-SNL Al Franken & Tom Davis, and putting together a TV pilot with Rob Reiner. All this led him to work on the Emmy-nominated Lily Tomlin special where he would meet a young Canadian-born producer named Lorne Michaels. Matt shares why he turned down the offer to write for Saturday Night Live in Season 1, eventually joined the show for Season 5, and then returned once more after the firing of Jean Doumanian in Season 6.  In addition to his time working on SNL, Matt talks about visiting the show during its first season, contributing sketches during its second, and helping write the Bob & Ray, Jane, Laraine, & Gilda special during Season 4.As the one established writer to join the staff at the start of Season 5, Matt has a unique perspective on how the final season of the original era unfolded.  He takes us from the pre-season “retreat” that was held in upstate New York all the way through the final send-off of the season finale – on which he is featured in the monologue (which he helped write).Along the way we are treated to a firsthand account of one of the most infamously bad sketches in show history (by the man who wrote it), getting a private concert by Bob Dylan, and what impact– if any – the first competition to Saturday Night Live's dominance would have.---------------------------------Subscribe & Follow today!

Raushanah Williams returns to the podcast for a discussion and trivia about the 1984 Steve Martin and Lily Tomlin comedy gem, All Of Me.

This episode originally aired on June 7, 2022. Two-time Emmy Award-winner Bruce Vilanch has written jokes for Bob Hope, Lily Tomlin, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Billy Crystal, Whoopi Goldberg and virtually every Hollywood star to grace the Academy Awards stage from 1989 – 2014.  As one of the entertainment industry's most sought-after joke writers, the actor, comedian and songwriter was perhaps best-known to audiences for his work behind-the-scenes at the Oscars, supplying one-liners to hosts and presenters. (Oscar-watchers are still talking about the year Jack Palance did push-ups on the stage, and the time Rob Lowe went rolling down the river with Snow White – two moments that left Bruce and his fellow writers scrambling backstage to help viewers make sense of it all.)  Over the years, Bruce became a familiar face to television audiences, when he stepped from behind the curtain for a long-running stint as a celebrity panelist on "Hollywood Squares," where he also served as head writer. As such, he is uniquely positioned to offer note and comment on what it takes to craft topical material for some of our leading personalities – honing his own voice as a comedian and performer while honoring the voices of his famous clients. Bruce was the subject of the 1999 documentary "Get Bruce!", and he has played himself in the movies and on television, including a memorable turn in an episode of "The Simpsons." Join us for an outrageous discussion on Bruce's adventures (and, misadventures) in Hollywood, including the inside story behind one of the most notorious flops in the history of prime-time network television (1978's "'Star Wars' Holiday Special"), the infamous Friars Club roast that featured Ted Danson in blackface, and a cameo turn from Ira Gershwin who was brought in to rewrite the lyrics to a song called "Treat Me Rough" for Marie Osmond, in hopes of slipping the number past the Morman elders who handled censorship duties on the "Donny & Marie" variety show.  Learn more about Bruce Vilanch: Website Twitter It Seemed Like a Bad Idea at the Time: The Worst TV Shows in History and Other Things I Wrote Please support the sponsors who support our show: Gotham Ghostwriters' Gathering of the Ghosts Ritani Jewelers Daniel Paisner's Balloon Dog Daniel Paisner's SHOW: The Making and Unmaking of a Network Television Pilot Heaven Help Us by John Kasich Unforgiving: Lessons from the Fall by Lindsey Jacobellis Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Libro.fm (ASTOLDTO) | 2 audiobooks for the price of 1 when you start your membership Film Freaks Forever! podcast, hosted by Mark Jordan Legan and Phoef Sutton Everyday Shakespeare podcast A Mighty Blaze podcast The Writer's Bone Podcast Network Misfits Market (WRITERSBONE) | $15 off your first order  Film Movement Plus (PODCAST) | 30% discount Wizard Pins (WRITERSBONE) | 20% discount

Before Hacks and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, there was the comedienne who started it all. First Lady of Laughs: The Forgotten Story of Jean Carroll (NYU Press, 2024) tells the story of Jean Carroll, the first Jewish woman to become a star in the field we now call stand-up comedy. Though rarely mentioned among the pantheon of early stand-up comics such as Henny Youngman and Lenny Bruce, Jean Carroll rivaled or even outshone the male counterparts of her heyday, playing more major theaters than any other comedian of her period. In addition to releasing a hit comedy album, Girl in a Hot Steam Bath, and briefly starring in her own sitcom on ABC, she also made twenty-nine appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show.Carroll made enduring changes to the genre of stand-up comedy, carving space for women and modeling a new form of Jewish femininity with her glamorous, acculturated, but still recognizably Jewish persona. She innovated a newly conversational, intimate style of stand-up, which is now recognized in comics like Joan Rivers, Sarah Silverman, and Tiffany Haddish. When Carroll was ninety-five she was honored at the Friars Club in New York City, where celebrities like Joy Behar and Lily Tomlin praised her influence on their craft. But her celebrated career began as an impoverished immigrant child, scrounging for talent show prize money to support her family.Drawing on archival footage, press clippings, and Jean Carroll's personal scrapbook, First Lady of Laughs restores Jean Carroll's remarkable story to its rightful place in the lineage of comedy history and Jewish American performance.
