In questa prima puntata della nuova stagione di Comlink, il team ritrova i microfoni dopo la pausa estiva per affrontare i temi principali del momento. Al centro della discussione ci sono l'imminente apertura del Lucas Museum of Narrative Art a Los Angeles e le speculazioni sul ritorno al cinema della versione originale del 1977 di Star Wars: Episodio IV in formato IMAX.Come sempre la discussione si arricchisce con una riflessione sullo stato dei grandi franchise cinematografici, messi a confronto con la Marvel e con serie TV come Star Trek: Strange New Worlds e Ted Lasso.YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EmpiRa2010 Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/empiratvFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/empirafanclubInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/empirastarwarsfanclub/

On this episode of The Lonely Island and Seth Meyers Podcast, the guys try to figure out who made Zach Looks for a New Assistant (it was John Solomon) and why it has a Digital Short bumper on it even though none of them worked on it (no clue). So they're just going to sit back and enjoy it... eventually. But first, they will talk about many things, including more 90s movies like the hit comedy of the decade starring future MacGruber villain Billy Zane, Silence of the Hams; Rachel Dratch's fail in the crossword (it's Church Chat, not Church Lady); the classic SNL sketch Colon Blow (written by the great Al Franken); and the parade of unused impressions in the sketch The Original Kings of Catchphrase Comedy Tour, in which we learn that Andy's character was an unused audition bit. Oh, and I totally forgot to mention that this is a “versus” episode. Andy is here for the first half and Jorm for the second. Who does a better job?

We kick off our twenty-first year of Star Wars podcasting by looking ahead to Star Wars: Starfighter via interview highlights with writer Jonathan Tropper and director Shawn Levy, who reveals his story will be set in a galaxy far, far away without a governing body. We interpret all of the clues about Starfighter and predict what a lawless Star Wars galaxy will look like. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art has finally opened in LA. We react to some of the early coverage and the statues on display, like "Huttslayer Leia". Plus, Swank is having a hard time revisiting the sequels, we discuss Solo: A Star Wars Story, an old friend checks in and more.

We (well, Chris, anyway) spent TWO DAYS inside the Lucas Museum….original Star Wars costumes, an N-1 Starfighter, incredible art, exclusive merch, the Skywalker Grill…and one frustrating surprise. Here's what you need to know before visiting. Hosts @albertmpadilla (ALL) @the.chris.atx (IG), @thechrisatx (TikTok) Pre-roll music by nojah1999 - eat your heart out, Pete Townsend.

This is the episode where Craig nerds out about Star Wars with one of his favorite podcasters, Eddie Pence. Eddie is the co-host of the daily podcast, The Ralph Report, along with Ralph Garman. This week he sits down with Craig to talk about his experience touring the soon to open Lucas Museum of Narrative Art. The two also discuss where Star Wars has been in the Disney era, and where they hope it will go in the future. It's a fun nerdy discussion all around!

After 16 years, three cities, and a reported $1 billion, the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art is finally opening in Los Angeles! During Member Previews, we got to experience so many amazing things - including Episode 1 of Star Wars: Detours!! This series was nearly complete when Disney bought Lucasfilm in 2012 and shelved it. After 14 years you can finally watch the first six episodes in one of the museum's two screening rooms. Richard and I share several more highlights, including:✨ Exploring the museum's breathtaking architecture and library ✨ Taking in the Star Wars Cinema gallery ✨ Standing in the presence of a nearly full-size N-1 starfighter ✨ Discovering original comic artwork and artists' sketches ✨ Finding some unexpected statues on the museum's grounds The museum officially opens to the public on September 22, so we offer important tips including ticket, dining, parking, reservation, and digital-guide facts to help plan your own visit. Remember: The Lucas Museum is not a "Star Wars museum." The goal is to celebrate narrative art in all its forms, including paintings, comics, illustrations, murals, photography, cinema artifacts, documentaries, and short films. Taking in all 30 galleries will take several more visits. In fact, we've booked another visit on September 30th. Will we see you there??

Nerd Culture #274 is ook te bekijken op https://youtu.be/zOIKrYQ3jPg Ook deze week word je weer bijgepraat over het allerlaatste nerdnieuws in aflevering 274 van Nerd Culture! Dit keer wederom met twee man sterk, want Koos heeft zijn handen vol met poepluiers, en Jelle is na het GTA 6-debacle even ondergedoken. Daarom schuift Daan weer eens aan de desk bij Huey. De evengoed pas geworden vader weet precies hoe je een controller moet vasthouden met een baby op je borst, maar heeft ook net zijn eerste werkweek weer gehad op Gamescom, en daar buit meegenomen in een uniek tasje om bij Nerd Culture mee te komen pronken. Wat zal het zijn? Dat, maar ook het laatste superheldennieuws, en ander nieuws uit de filmwereld hoor en zie je in deze aflevering van Nerd Culture. Trading Card Games als hobby/verdienmodel & een zoektocht naar kwalitatieve filmposters Je zuurverdiende centen nog tijdens je werk uitgeven kan blijkbaar het beste op Gamescom. Daan trekt zijn stash open van Magic: The Gathering, One Piece en zelfs een pakje Yu-Gi-Oh kaarten. Hoe diep zit hij inmiddels in deze scene en hoeveel van zijn kaarten heeft 'ie in hoesjes gehezen? Huey heeft ook weer een eigen zoektocht opgezet naar kwalitatieve filmposters. Oud, nieuw, maakt niet veel uit, zolang het maar geen stalen platen zijn en in een lijst kan hangen. Het verdwijnen van de EXPO is voor Huey een groot gemis, dus laten we hem helpen in de comments! Lucas Museum, Street Fighter vs. Mortal Kombat & de verschillende era's superheldenfilms De twee staan even stil bij wat trailers, waaronder die van Street Fighter. Wat zijn hun gedachten over de trailer, en hoe verhoudt deze zich tot de Mortal Kombat films? Het lijkt alsof een nieuw tijdperk van videogame-adaptaties aanbreekt dat lekker zondagse B-films gaat produceren. Mocht je toevallig in Los Angeles zijn, kun je altijd even een uitstapje maken naar het Lucas Museum waar Huey deze week graag zijn spreekbeurt over geeft. En tot slot duiken zij in het laatste superheldennieuws, waar een mooie discussie uit voortvloeit over de verschillende tijdperken van superhelden, maar ook over de Fast & Furious filmreeks. Spoiler alert: Huey zit meer op een lijn met zijn meest geliefde director Nolan dan hij denkt. Hoe dat allemaal zit? Dat zie en hoor je in aflevering #274 van Nerd Culture!Wil je adverteren bij de podcast Nerd Culture óf misschien bij een andere podcast van ILVY Network?

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.

WSTR Galactic Public Access Episode 444 - Ahsoka Creature Feature Todd Hoffman returns with a Creature Feature look at the creatures and creature-adjacent beings that show up in Ahsoka, plus a stacked Star Wars news roundup. This episode matters if you want a quick refresher on the weird, wonderful lifeforms tied to Ahsoka's story and the larger mythology around Ezra, Sabine, and the Force. Todd also covers a few current Star Wars headlines and closes with his usual cantina chat. Key topics: In this episode, Todd revisits the Creature Feature format and explains that it focuses on non-sentient beings in Star Wars, with one playful exception for a sentient creature he could not skip. Todd breaks down the Purrgil, the hyperspace-traveling space whales whose role in Rebels and Ahsoka is central to Ezra Bridger's disappearance and the Chimera's jump to the unknown regions. He discusses the Howlers, the shaggy, wolf-like mounts from Peridea that Sabine and Ezra encounter, noting their importance as both creatures and transportation. Todd covers the Noti, the extra-galactic crustacean people of Peridea, describing their shell-like bodies, practical clothing, and role across multiple Ahsoka episodes. He highlights the Loth-cats, especially Sabine's companion Murley, along with the tease that Loth-kittens may appear in Ahsoka season two. He talks through the Loth-wolves, their Force connection, their ties to Rebels and Sabine's artwork, and why Dave Filoni uses wolves as guide figures in the Star Wars mythos. Todd finishes the creature rundown with Morai, the mystical convor linked to Ahsoka, the Daughter, and the Mortis storyline, calling it one of the most important visual symbols in the series. In the news segment, he notes that The Mandalorian and Grogu is heading to Disney Plus after its theatrical run and comments on its box office performance and reception. He covers the new Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and George Lucas's appearance at a media preview, focusing on the museum's broader mission to elevate comics, illustration, and popular art. Todd closes with reporting that Star Wars: Zero Company reportedly furloughed much of its team before launch, despite the game being one of the best reviewed Star Wars titles in years. Timestamps: 00:00 - Todd opens episode 444 and sets up a positivity-first Star Wars podcast 02:22 - Why Ahsoka fits the Creature Feature format 03:45 - Purrgil and the hyperspace whale connection to Ezra 06:32 - Howlers as Peridea's shaggy mounts 09:22 - The Noti and their crustacean-like design 12:13 - Loth-cats, Murley, and the tease of Loth-kittens 14:39 - Loth-wolves and their Force-guided role on Lothal 18:00 - Morai, Ahsoka's mystical convor, and Mortis ties 23:18 - The Mandalorian and Grogu moves to Disney Plus 25:25 - George Lucas, the Lucas Museum, and elevating narrative art 31:10 - Star Wars: Zero Company studio furlough news 34:18 - Cantina chat, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and personal updates 37:36 - Listener outreach, swag, and the episode wrap-up Share your favorite creature in Ahsoka or favorite Star Wars creature!

Amy Phillips and guest Angela Quintana catch up, swapping perimenopause stories about hot flashes, sleeplessness, and vivid dreams, and mention Dr. Gilber Lenz's book Menopause Boot Camp. They share quick pop-culture news, including the opening of George Lucas's Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles, RHOBH filming updates involving Dorit and PK, Kim Zolciak and Kroy's dating crossover, and a rumor about Bravo casting The Real Housewives of Montana. The episode then recaps Below Deck Med: Captain Sandy's messages with staffing contact Norma, Nathan's back injury and tension with Joe, and a Reality Tea report about an apprehended violence court filing naming Gael Cameron and Nathan Gallagher. They praise Joe's performance as acting bosun, discuss Max's return, critique chef Joy's missteps with guest preferences (including the “pizza” suggestion), and touch on Cooper/Kat's secret romance and onboard mishaps like the smoking tender. And they're appreciation for Max‘s Star Power.This episode is sponsored by:BUBS NATURALS COLLAGEN AND PEPTIDESLive Better Longer with BUBS Naturals.  For A limited time get 20% Off your entire order with code DRAMA at Bubsnaturals.comOAK ESSENTIALS Luminous Body Lotionhttps://oakessentials.comFLAMINGO Smoother skin awaits you!

402 Avengers Doomsday New X-Men Lanterns Disney Villains LandDoom Scrolling IntroThe Foos are back after nearly a month away, and the backyard project is finally done — although Joe's arm is still messed up and Steph is recovering from a badly sprained ankle courtesy of Steph Kwon Do. They recap Anthony Jeselnik at the Ontario Improv and break down the 5 weirdos you always meet at a comedy club: the super fan, the punchline repeater, the wannabe opening act, the person terrified of crowd work, and the offended partner who suddenly turns date night into couples therapy.They also react to Motown legend Martha Reeves' viral national anthem performance and debate how much the lack of stage monitors, weather, backup vocals, and being 85 years old should factor into the criticism.Geeking Out starts with the new Avengers: Doomsday footage, including Doctor Doom facing off with the Avengers, Fantastic Four, and X-Men — plus a ridiculous moment involving Thor's Stormbreaker. The Foos get into Robert Downey Jr. as Doom, multiverse theories, and why Doom needs to be more than evil Tony Stark.Marvel also reveals its new X-Men lineup, with Sadie Sink as Jean Grey, Kit Connor as Cyclops, Indy Navarretti as Rogue, Maya Boyd as Storm, Christopher Abbott as Professor X, Samara Weaving as Emma Frost, and Adam Driver as Mr. Sinister. Joe and Steph agree that starting with Mr. Sinister instead of immediately going back to Magneto is the smarter move.Star Wars: Starfighter brings Ryan Gosling into a new corner of the galaxy, while DC's Lanterns goes full True Detective with Hal Jordan and John Stewart investigating an alien-connected murder. Then Disney gets sinister with a massive Villains Land featuring Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Ursula, Scar, Jafar, Hades, Cruella, and more.Steph also previews the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and what comes with their membership before their upcoming visit.Here's What I Would Do brings two dilemmas: Andrea from La Habra takes an ancestry DNA test and accidentally discovers a 28-year-old half-sister her married father apparently never told the family about. Then Trevor from Escondido buys a storage unit and finds decades of family memories, military letters, photos, and a Purple Heart — forcing him to decide whether legally owning something means it's morally his to keep.ChaptersDoom Scrolling IntroBackyard finished + injuries5 Weirdos at a Comedy ClubAnthony Jeselnik recapMartha Reeves national anthemAvengers Doomsday trailer + Doctor DoomMarvel reveals the new X-MenAdam Driver as Mr. SinisterStar Wars Starfighter Ryan GoslingLanterns goes True DetectiveDisney Villains LandLucas Museum of Narrative ArtHere's What I Would Do Ancestry DNA surprise sisterHere's What I Would Do Storage unit Purple Heart dilemmaKing of the Hill Season 2Outro + Doom Scrolling OutroAvengers Doomsday, Doctor Doom, Robert Downey Jr, new X-Men MCU, Mr Sinister, Adam Driver, Star Wars Starfighter, Ryan Gosling, Lanterns DC, Green Lantern, Disney Villains Land, Lucas Museum, Anthony Jeselnik, comedy club etiquette, ancestry DNA surprise, storage unit auction, King of the Hill

Jeff Bliss discusses the severe threats posed by a potential "super El Niño," which could lead to massive coastal erosion, mudslides, and heavy rains in Los Angeles, similar to the damage seen in previous severe weather years. He also reports on active wildfires in California, such as the Timber Fire in Monterey County and the Bug Fire near the Nevada border, noting that humans cause roughly 90 to 95% of these blazes. Shifting to entertainment, Bliss describes the highly anticipated opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which features the "Skywalker Grill"—a restaurant causing excitement among Los Angeles foodies for its Michelin-star potential. Additionally, Bliss covers the landmark $12.8 billion purchase of the Los Angeles Lakers by a group involving Jared Kushner and Bob Iger. Finally, he touches on the legal controversy surrounding the Paramount-Skydance merger and David Ellison's threat to move production out of Hollywood. (1)

TABLE OF CONTENTS THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-14-2026.Jeff Bliss discusses the severe threats posed by a potential "super El Niño," which could lead to massive coastal erosion, mudslides, and heavy rains in Los Angeles, similar to the damage seen in previous severe weather years. He also reports on active wildfires in California, such as the Timber Fire in Monterey County and the Bug Fire near the Nevada border, noting that humans cause roughly 90 to 95% of these blazes. Shifting to entertainment, Bliss describes the highly anticipated opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which features the "Skywalker Grill"—a restaurant causing excitement among Los Angeles foodies for its Michelin-star potential. Additionally, Bliss covers the landmark $12.8 billion purchase of the Los Angeles Lakers by a group involving Jared Kushner and Bob Iger. Finally, he touches on the legal controversy surrounding the Paramount-Skydance merger and David Ellison's threat to move production out of Hollywood. (1)Gene Marks shares insights from White House advisor Kevin Hassett regarding the validity of government economic data, with Hassett favoring durable goods orders and unemployment claims over revised surveys. Marks reports a generally positive outlook for small businesses, citing an uptick in optimism and a four-year high in manufacturing activity driven by the AI and data center explosion. He notes that while tariffs and $4 gasoline remain concerns, many businesses are absorbing costs without significant impact on sales. Marks characterizes the United States as an "entrepreneur's paradise" because of the ease of starting a business and the high availability of capital. He highlights that nearly half a million new business applications are filed monthly, supported by record levels of private debt and venture capital. Marks concludes that despite various uncertainties, the small business sector remains resilient and is continuing to hire. (2)Jim McTague provides a report on the "mixed" economy of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, observing that retail activity is picking up due to back-to-school shopping despite inflationary pressures. He notes that discount giants like Costco are packed as shoppers seek relief from high prices, while tourism traffic at local hotels and amusement parks has lightened midweek. McTague also highlights local opposition to data centers, making them a contentious political issue for upcoming elections. A central focus is the "Heritage Paris" patisserie at Park City Mall, where a French chef sells premium handcrafted pastries. McTague describes high-end offerings like the "Popcorn Illusion" pastry priced at $17.95, illustrating a market for luxury food even in a cautious economy. He humorously recounts his own difficulty resisting these treats while on a low-carb diet, emphasizing that the shop is a significant draw for local residents. (3)Lorenzo Fiori describes a "disaster" situation in Europe caused by severe drought and record heat, with water restrictions implemented in Swiss towns and critically low levels in northern Italy's Po River. The drought has turned the normally green Alps brown and disrupted lake navigation. Simultaneously, Sicily's Mount Etna has entered a prolonged eruption phase, spewing ash for seven days and forcing the cancellation of 700 flights at Catania airport during the peak tourist season. Fiori notes the chaos caused by tourists seeking "eruption selfies" in dangerous areas. For a cultural reprieve, he recommends the Bernina Express rail journey, which reaches the highest railway point in Europe. He also shares a traditional recipe for polenta with Gorgonzola cheese, paired with local Valtellina wine, though he expresses concern that the drought may soon impact milk production from Alpine cows. (4)Bob Zimmerman details the robotic mission by startup Catalyst to rescue NASA's Swift Space Telescope, utilizing innovative software to maneuver a servicing craft despite thruster failures. He highlights SpaceX's massive Starshipproduction line in Boca Chica, noting that four prototypes are ready for monthly launches and upcoming orbital refueling tests. Zimmerman also discusses Lockheed Martin's strategic investments in rocket startups like Firefly to secure launch capabilities. On the international front, he reports on Poland's successful protest against Starlink roaming restrictions and Vietnam's first satellite contract with an American company, SpaceX, signaling a shift toward U.S. ties. Additionally, Zimmerman covers the State Department's efforts to pull India away from Russian space partnerships and NASA's collaboration with the Department of Energy on nuclear propulsion for Mars. He concludes with breathtaking imagery of stars orbiting the Milky Way's central black hole. (5)Alex Wright, author of Empire of Ink: The Printers, Rogues, and Radicals Who Invented the American Newspaper, Part Two: Wright recounts the history of American newspapers, focusing on the Civil War's impact on journalism. He highlights George Smalley's groundbreaking combat reporting at Antietam, where Smalley wrote a vivid account on a night train to secure the "scoop of all scoops" for the Tribune. Wright also explores "soldier-published" newspapers that provided a slice of camp life and the origins of Stars and Stripes. Moving west, he describes the dangerous life of frontier editors, such as Mark Twain, who carried revolvers to defend against aggrieved readers and occasionally fled town to avoid duels. Wright explains how newspapers became "gold mines" by discovering the revenue potential of patent medicine advertising, which once accounted for half of all ads. He concludes by drawing parallels between the fragmented, anything-goes media landscape of the 19th century and today's digital era of content creators and AI. (6)Henry Sokolski examines the "Golden Dome," a proposed $185 billion space-based missile defense project that mirrors the Cold War-era SDI. He warns that the program's lack of transparency is "suicidal" for its funding, as Congress remains in the dark about its primary mission. Sokolski notes that while technology is closer to practicality than 40 years ago, current threats are often low-cost drones rather than intercontinental missiles. In the energy sector, he highlights Elon Musk's $10 billion "Project Crystal Sun" solar factory in Texas, which Musk frames as capturing the "fusion reactor" of the sun. Sokolski observes that even conservative states are voting with their pocketbooks for renewables as battery storage investments double. Finally, he touches on a mutual defense pact between Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, suggesting a "Sunni NATO" is emerging due to a lack of confidence in U.S. security guarantees. (7)Angela DiFulvio explains a theoretical method for detecting nuclear weapons in low Earth orbit to prevent catastrophes like the 1962 Starfish Prime experiment, which destroyed a third of existing satellites. She describes an "inspector" satellite designed to induce a unique radioactive signature from fissile material using high-energy protons. DiFulvio details technical challenges, such as "pulse shape discrimination," to distinguish weapon-related neutrons from background cosmic radiation in the harsh space environment. She suggests that an international agency like the IAEAmight oversee these inspectors to ensure space remains weapon-free. DiFulvio emphasizes that while tests can occur in classified environments, more research is needed on the survivability of sensing electronics. She warns that a modern orbital nuclear detonation would be catastrophic for global infrastructure, specifically mentioning the vulnerability of massive constellations like Starlink. (8)

In Episode 157, hosts Alyce and Laura are* worried about Olivia Coleman in the upcoming movie, Wicker. I mean… splinters… There are a lot of corrections. We're not sorry though, our Caravan of Corrections gives us content during slow news cycles Star Wars Visions: The Ninth Jedi series dropped all episodes on August 5. Have you watched? Tell us what you think! D23 is happening next weekend. There are a few panels we're hoping someone will livestream or livetwe-- uh, what is the Bluesky equivalent of livetweeting? A Welsh dub of Star Wars: A New Hope? FINALLY!  Never stop never stopping making fun of the fact that the Ahsoka show had the balls to go 4 years in between seasons   “Remember Furbies? I miss those little guys” -said no one ever. But Disney Parks won't  let that stop them from breeding these unholy Furby-Ewok hybrids. Bae (aka Ewan McGregor) and Anne Hathaway are out here promoting their new non-Jurassic-Park dinosaur movie, but the real news is Bae still wants to do more Obi-Wan.  The Mando movie won the week on Video on Demand, but that victory is equivalent to being the best shot in a platoon of stormtroopers. But this dude claiming to be the CEO of Disney says a win is a win. Starfighter keeps on Starfighting, this time in the MCU.  “I can't wait to watch Robot Chicken at the Lucas Museum,” said someone who only kinda browsed this article. Still debating whether or not the new novel Star Wars: Legacy is for you?

In a surprise announcement, the long "on-the-shelf" Star Wars animated comedy from George Lucas, Seth Green and company will be screening at the soon-to-open Lucas Museum in LA. We listen to Seth Green's announcement at San Diego Comic Con and discuss what the show is all about. In other SDCC news, Kevin Feige gets us pumped up about next year's Star Wars: Starfighter by revealing he's already seen it, but we are confused by the total lack of publicly available images and coverage. And we share our disappointment with Hasbro for some of their lackluster SDCC announcements and criticize them for sad offerings going back to Solo: A Star Wars Story. Star Wars fans are still talking about The Mandalorian and Grogu and our voicemail inbox has some listener thoughts about Rotta the Hutt. In our "Outrageous Unthinkable Story of the Week", a former Star Wars actor breaks bad on his role in the prequels and we try to determine why he's trash talking. Plus, we return to the RFR Sound Lab, we look forward to this week's Rebel Scum Con, and more!

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (8.4) A packed hour. Let's move. ⚡ We open with spooky season kicking down the door in August — Spirit Halloween stores are popping up nationwide.

We've got Comic-Con Updates! Marvel did not disappoint, as it lit up the airwaves, DC brought the Lanterns, and Spaceballs went to ludicrous speed! PlayStation got a big reality check as to why going digital is bad. Rick and Morty gave President Curtis his own show. And I went back to Installation 04 on legendary!

Message Dan and MikeWe're back from our first San Diego Comic-Con with press credentials, and this episode kicks off a two-part recap of the entire experience. Part one covers our arrival, the scramble to find the convention center on San Diego's trolley system, and the reality check that comes with picking up press badges for the first time. We also take a detour to Seaport Village for tacos and a beer with a view of the harbor, then head north to UC San Diego for a surprise highlight of the trip: Shredding the Multiverse, a concert reimagining television and film scores from shows like Cobra Kai, Spider-Man, and The Penguin with a full orchestra and rock energy.From there we walk through preview night, our first real taste of the exhibit hall, complete with two-hour lines, an ocean of vendors, and a candid discussion about what press credentials do and don't actually get you at a con this size. We get into a few Comic-Con-brain moments (yes, we coin the term), some sibling bickering about San Diego weather, and a genuinely strange arcade cabinet encounter that turns into its own little subplot.The back half of the episode dives into two of our favorite panels from day one. First, a look at the upcoming Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, opening in Los Angeles this September, and why it's a celebration of storytelling and visual art far beyond just Star Wars. Then we sit in on Brad Bird's career retrospective panel, tracing his path from The Iron Giant and The Incredibles to Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol and his surprising, nearly two-hundred-episode history with The Simpsons. Bird also previews his new animated sci-fi noir series Ray Gun and drops a small but exciting update on the status of Incredibles 3.It's an exhausting, funny, occasionally chaotic first day, and we haven't even gotten to Hall H yet. That's coming in part two, along with days two and three of the convention. Thanks for riding along with us on our first Comic-Con as press, sore feet and all.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!

In this final after-show episode of the Star Wars Escape Pod podcast, we dive into the dramatic conclusion of Maul: Shadow Lord. We celebrate becoming founding members of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and successfully score tickets for next year's Star Wars Celebration—despite the chaotic online queue. As we dive deep into Shadow Lord, we analyze the "scary again" version of Darth Vader, comparing his relentless, silent killing-machine persona to horror icon Jason Voorhees, while debating the physics of his robotic limbs. Between lighthearted jokes about everyone dressing up as "Dash" (from Dash Rendar to the Mrs. Dash spice) and geeking out over new Hasbro Black Series clone helmet from ATOC. Join us as we wrap up the journey through the series with plenty of "food for thought" and a look ahead to the upcoming Mandalorian and Grogu movie.     Check out the Star Wars Archives link in our description for a database of all 400+ episodes!

In this episode of Capital for Good we speak with Mellody Hobson, one of the country's preeminent investors and business and civic leaders. Hobson is the co-CEO of Ariel Investments, a board director of several Fortune 500 companies and nonprofit organizations, and a nationally recognized advocate for financial literacy and economic inclusion. We begin with a discussion of the formative childhood experiences that would shape Hobson's personal and professional trajectory. Hobson recalls how, as a young girl on the South Side of Chicago who regularly experienced economic insecurity, she was driven to work very hard and "to understand money" as a path to economic security for herself and for others. "My purpose was sealed very early," she says.  After graduating from Princeton in 1991, Hobson joined the Chicago-based Ariel Investments. In the thirty-five years since, she has traveled from intern to co-CEO, building a $14 billion asset management firm with a mission to "transform the lives of everyone who entrusts us with their financial futures."  Hobson walks us through her evolution as a leader, and describes Ariel's signature approach to long-term investing in companies and sectors that are "misunderstood, ignored and underfollowed," where vigorous and original research allows the team to identify mispriced securities and the opportunity to outperform. According to Hobson, Ariel's success has derived from the principles and practices of active patience ("being patient is really hard, it requires great restraint, great study, great discipline"), bold teamwork, and independent thinking – the focused expertise that supports the "conviction to have a different opinion." This approach made Ariel a pioneer, first in small cap stocks, where the firm's founder John Rogers tested the long-term value investment thesis, and later in mid cap and international markets. In 2021, Hobson launched Ariel Alternatives, which included its inaugural private equity fund, Project Black, focused on building to scale minority businesses that will be tier one suppliers to Fortune 500 companies, and Project Level, a new vehicle focused on "changing the game" in women's sports. Given the seismic and secular shifts in the industry, Hobson believes women's sports are "the next big growth opportunity… the small cap of sports." Hobson speaks passionately about all she has learned as a corporate director. Today, she serves on the board of JP Morgan Chase, and was a director of Estée Lauder Companies, DreamWorks Animation, and Starbucks, which she led as chair. She is equally animated by her civic commitments, learning early on it was "part of your job to be of service to others… it was sewn into my DNA." We discuss the inspiration she finds in her work with a number of nonprofit organizations, including After School Matters, Bloomberg Philanthropies, and the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, a new cultural institution she has created with her husband and filmmaker George Lucas. Hobson is fervent about the power of storytelling, and her and Lucas's belief that "everyone's story matters." Hobson has captured part of her own story in the New York bestselling Priceless Facts about Money, an immaculately researched and illustrated children's book that makes learning about money and finance accessible — and fun. And it is in young people that Hobson sees hope, even in challenging times, as they affirm her faith in the wonder and promise of human potential. "If you believe that is true," she says, "then everything is possible. Not anything — everything." Mentioned in this episode John W.
