I'm revisiting one of my favorite conversations with bestselling author Steven Pressfield, whose wisdom on fear, resistance, and creativity has inspired millions. If you've been sitting on an idea, delaying your next move, or wondering why the work that matters most feels the hardest to begin, this episode will give you the perspective—and the push—you need.When Steven Pressfield published The Legend of Bagger Vance, many called him an overnight success. What they didn't see were the 30 years of failed novels, unproduced screenplays, and stretches of homelessness that came before it.Few conversations left an impact on me as this one did. Steven is now in his eighties and still creating, doing what he loves, and showing no signs of stopping. I never thought about fear the same after this podcast, thanks to Steven's words. Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/K3Z8bcnvNlU "It's like the old story of an overnight success that only takes you 30 years." ~ Steven PressfieldIn This Episode:- Finding your authentic creative voice- How to work with the muse- A simple process for developing great ideas- Why resistance means you're on the right path- Self-doubt as a sign of growth- What a shadow career really isAbout Steven PressfieldSteven Pressfield is the author of The War of Art, which has sold over a million copies worldwide and has become essential reading for writers, artists, and entrepreneurs. His debut novel, The Legend of Bagger Vance, was made into a film starring Matt Damon and Will Smith. His other novel, Gates of Fire, is required reading at West Point. Before his breakthrough at 52, he spent decades failing as a novelist and screenwriter, at times living out of his car. His latest novel, The Arcadian, was released in May 2026.IG: https://www.instagram.com/steven_pressfield/ X: https://x.com/SPressfield Website: https://stevenpressfield.com/ Where to find me:IG: https://www.instagram.com/jen_gottlieb/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@jen_gottlieb Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Jenleahgottlieb Website: https://jengottlieb.com/ My business: https://www.superconnectormedia.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jen_gottlieb

This week on In the Room, we sit down with Andy Fisher, five-time Emmy-nominated and DGA Award-winning director of Jimmy Kimmel Live.Andy takes us from his Austin comedy roots, where he was making strange DIY films with friends on whatever equipment they could find, to his early editing days in Los Angeles, to the moment he was asked to step into the director's chair at one of late night's biggest shows.It's a conversation about live television, creative confidence, comedy, collaboration, the future of broadcast, and the strange little moments that turn into a career. Andy also shares stories about the Duplass brothers, the Matt Damon joke, directing awards-show segments, and why the best advice might be: say yes, then figure it out.Funny, loose, deeply specific, and full of filmmaker gold, this one is for anyone who has ever tried to make something before they felt ready.

Today we continue our journey through the movies of Christopher Nolan with 2002's Insomnia, the comparatively little-known film he made between Memento (cult favourite, liking it makes you sound clever) and Batman Begins (the first chapter of everyone's favourite superhero trilogy).The cast is stacked with A-list talent - Al Pacino, Robin Williams and Hilary Swank will get your movie noticed - and yet Insomnia rarely gets talked about with the same fervour as Nolan's other work. We'll explore why in this episode, alongside chat about how smoking and telephones are cool and Matt Damon isn't. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dopo sei mesi di uscite, trailer, promesse, scommesse e delusioni più o meno annunciate, era arrivato il momento di fare i conti. In questa puntata di Spin-Off – Un Podcast di Recenserie, Federico, Fabrizio e Aldo ripercorrono il primo semestre del 2026 mese per mese, commentando 39 film e serie TV che almeno uno dei tre ha effettivamente visto. L'obiettivo è semplice: capire cosa vale la pena recuperare, cosa può restare in lista senza troppa fretta e cosa invece si può evitare senza sensi di colpa. Si passa da No Other Choice di Park Chan-wook a Pillion con Alexander Skarsgård e Harry Melling, da The Rip con Matt Damon e Ben Affleck a Peaky Blinders, Project Hail Mary, The Bride, The Madison, Dutton Ranch, Hacks, Good Omens 3, Mortal Kombat 2, Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed, The Four Seasons, How to Make a Killing e molti altri titoli usciti tra cinema, streaming, animazione, horror, action e serie TV. Una puntata “tutti frutti summer love”, nel senso che non c'è un filo logico vero se non quello più importante: capire cosa ci ha convinto, cosa ci ha deluso e cosa consigliamo davvero dopo averlo visto.

It's finally time for us to dive into the Bourniverse. In what we assume was the inspiration for Letty in Furious 6, Matt Damon has amnesia so bad that when he remembers something, he winces in pain. Also, his superpowers include spotting a guy who is 215 pounds and knows how to handle himself, which is amazing. Greg goes deep into how this messy production produces a stone cold classic, and Joe tries to figure out if this is in fact a GREAT GREAT MOVIE...

Joey mowed his lawn last night and found a piece of mulch in his hair when he went to bed. Nancy then peppered him with questions about his showering habits.

The total box office earnings for Matt Damon and Ben Affleck round out to a cool $10B. They're A-list actors, Oscar-winners, writers, directors, production company founders. But back in the mid-90s, the best friends were rejected – for movies, for television shows, for commercials. Then one day Matt Damon took a playwriting course at Harvard. What happened next, is a rejection story all of its own.

One accent that tends to make headlines whenever even the best of the best Hollywood actors try to tackle it is the South African accent. The most infamous examples are Leonardo DiCaprio in 'Blood Diamond' and Matt Damon as Francois Pienaar in 'Invictus'. Not every actor can be an accent expert, but does this one pass the test?
Tom Kelly and Steve Burgerer riff on Long Island "victimless crimes," fake service dogs, loud motorcycles, e-bikes, bad parking etiquette, walkable towns, and whether naming every town on Long Island could somehow become viral content. The episode eventually turns into a full-on Long Island town naming marathon inspired by Matt Damon, Ben Affleck and Jimmy Fallon — with debates over which towns are real, which ones sound fake, and why every Long Islander secretly wants to hear their hometown mentioned. Tom also talks about comedy, podcasting, audience behavior, Andy Kaufman-style performance art, and an awkward comedy dating show featuring 9/11 jokes gone wrong. If you love Long Island culture, local humor, Massapequa references, Eisenhower Park, Nassau County chaos, and two comedians arguing about whether "Village of the Branch" is a real place… this episode is for you.

Somewhere along the way, the names Barack Obama and Matt Damon enter the conversation, reality gets questioned, and an ostrich somehow steals the spotlight.This isn't your typical interview. It's part comedy, part deep conversation, part “how the hell did we get here?”

Joey is hosting bingo at his church tomorrow night, so he practiced what he was going to say while calling numbers. We think he should say Biblical names or words while doing it. “B (as in Bathsheba) 10!” Nancy rushed to get her yardwork done yesterday because of the rain forecast, but it ended up not raining until last night. Our first stop on the pizza tour is tonight at Harby’s from 5-7pm! First 300 people get a free slice of pizza! Alan Jackson surprised his niece by calling her to tell her she will be making her Grand Ole Opry debut later this month!

A guy ran into a swamp while running from police and got attacked by an alligator. Knox News reached out to Matt Damon’s team to ask where exactly he bartended in Knoxville in the 90s. He doesn’t remember but said it was a hotel on “the main street” and they only served Bud and Bud Lite.

There's more than a few photos kicking around of Brendan Gallagher, Andrei Markov and Tomas Plekanec all together on the Habs. They were all on the team from 2012 when Gallagher got called up to Markov's departure at the end of the 2016-2017 season. All three of those guys played over 900 games for the bleu-blanc-rouge. I feel like only Markov has a real chance of having his number up in the rafters and even then I wouldn't consider it a lock. All the same Brendan Gallagher is certainly a player who I think most Habs fans will remember fondly for a very long time. Pretty sure it's the right time to move on, the team is younger and poor Gally is just not going to be a part of whatever the final form of this roster looks like. Still I can be a little sad about a guy who has often been described as “the heart and soul” of the team no longer wearing the CH. Plus during the pandemic he did some genuinely funny tiktok videos. Even if they're just lip-synching to scenes from TV shows that's still more personally than we see from 99% of hockey players. He posted one when they were going into the weird hockey bubble set to the Hunger Games theme song that I can't find and that was extremely funny. Anyways, apparently screw worms are coming to America this summer. I guess look it up on the internet if you want to get extra grossed out. Scott and Jon both watched Ron Howard's 2015 movie about Moby Dick In The Heart of the Sea and it seemed that they both were pretty mixed on the whole thing. Finally, Scott still really, really hates Andor. You'd think it starred Matt Damon or something. Over on Garbage Time we talk about how crazy it is that Marvel and DC still work month to month and pay artists and writers by the page when they're now controlled by monstrous entities like Disney and Warner Bros. We then discover that there is SO MUCH MORE Walking Dead than you think there is. If you would like to show your support and head over to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time that would be appreciated.

The apocalypse is trending again, which means naturally The Rizzuto Show spent way too much time discussing celebrity bunkers, survival plans, and exactly how many canned goods Moon would trade for a VIP pass into Post Malone's luxury doomsday compound.This episode starts with a deep dive into Post Malone's reported Utah fortress — complete with mountain views, security systems, recording studios, and enough amenities to make the end of the world feel suspiciously like a five-star resort. While billionaires are building secret hideaways and celebrities are stockpiling supplies, Lern starts seriously considering constructing her own underground luxury shelter. Because if civilization is ending, why not do it with themed décor and a fake beach mural?Meanwhile, we uncover one of Hollywood's greatest mysteries: Why does Matt Damon constantly need rescuing? From Saving Private Ryan to The Martian to Interstellar, movie studios have spent hundreds of millions of dollars bringing Matt Damon back home. At this point, it may be more cost effective to simply stop letting him wander off.The gang also gets sidetracked debating Father's Day, celebrity prepper culture, militia-friendly states, and whether Moon can somehow charm his way onto someone's apocalypse guest list before society collapses. Spoiler alert: he's already working on it.Then it's time for a packed edition of Crap on Celebrities featuring new music from Weezer, a Gold Album announcement, Kiss releasing yet another collectible for fans who somehow still have shelf space, Violet Grohl making her late-night television debut, and surprising details about Jennifer Lopez and Brett Goldstein's reported relationship.Plus:• Paul Rudd accidentally auctions Avengers premiere tickets without telling Marvel• Shia LaBeouf pleads guilty after a New Orleans altercation• Tom Holland explains why his dyslexia keeps him away from hosting SNL• A horrifying new horror movie turns ice cream into nightmare fuel• The New York Times readers vote on the greatest living American songwriters and somehow create enough controversy to fuel several future family argumentsAs always, the crew manages to bounce from celebrity gossip to weird news to philosophical debates about survival, parenthood, music, and the proper use of an underground bunker.

We start things off learning who took Moon's Blue Angel seat. Does he spend an impressive amount of time talking about it? Absolutely. As the crew breaks down the story, they somehow end up discussing social media influencers, science teachers, childhood dreams, and the emotional support system required to survive a week without Moon in the studio.Do electric bikes actually count as riding bikes? The crew dives into new enforcement efforts targeting certain high-powered e-bikes and electric dirt bikes around the St. Louis area. What starts as a conversation about public safety quickly becomes a nostalgic trip through mini bikes, neighborhood troublemakers, and the legendary Harold Mansfield—a man whose life story somehow includes cigarettes, football pads, and enough old-man energy to power an entire town.Unfortunately for Rafe, this episode lands directly on National Cheese Day. The result is a nearly impossible challenge as the crew debates America's favorite cheeses, reminisces about government cheese, argues about Parmesan, and watches Rafe slowly spiral into what can only be described as a cheese-related existential crisis.The food news doesn't stop there. The team puts on their completely unqualified legal hats to discuss a lawsuit involving a woman who slipped on mashed potatoes at an Outback Steakhouse and is seeking serious damages. Could mashed potatoes really change someone's life forever? The crew investigates the case with all the professionalism you'd expect from people who spent ten minutes ranking cheese.You'll also hear discussions about Cheesecake Factory's return to West County, dangerous summer bacteria lurking in the water, lake season traditions, childhood adventures, weird news, celebrity-level aviation envy, and the everyday chaos that somehow becomes a radio show.The apocalypse is trending again, which means naturally The Rizzuto Show spent way too much time discussing celebrity bunkers, survival plans, and exactly how many canned goods Moon would trade for a VIP pass into Post Malone's luxury doomsday compound.Meanwhile, we uncover one of Hollywood's greatest mysteries: Why does Matt Damon constantly need rescuing? From Saving Private Ryan to The Martian to Interstellar, movie studios have spent hundreds of millions of dollars bringing Matt Damon back home.

Spoiler alert: he's already working on it.A Houston 911 dispatcher who admitted she hung up on thousands of emergency callers because she simply "didn't want to talk to anyone." The gang dives into the unbelievable details, the real-life consequences, and the even more unbelievable punishment she received. It's one of those stories that leaves everyone asking the same question: "Wait... that's it?"The crew gets into a surprisingly honest conversation about grief after a listener asks whether using dark humor to cope with losing a parent is normal. What follows is a heartfelt, hilarious, and occasionally concerning discussion featuring dead-dad jokes, funeral stories, family reactions, and proof that sometimes laughter is the only thing keeping the wheels attached. Somehow, this emotional conversation also leads to a search party for a missing Jeff Burton cardboard cutout. Because of course it does.And just when you think things can't get any weirder, the conversation shifts to a life-changing offer: one million dollars tax-free—but your legal name becomes "Shart" forever. No nicknames. No take-backs. Just Shart. The arguments that follow may be some of the strongest legal and financial analysis ever performed by a group of radio professionals who absolutely should not be giving financial advice.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Ellisville PD cracking down on e-bike useCheesecake Factory seeks new location at West County MallWoman sues Outback Steakhouse for $1.5M after allegedly slipping on mashed potatoesFive Florida cases of 'flesh-eating bacteria' reported as 'hot beach season' beginsBank teller charged with sharing customer data in $28K identity theft schemeFormer SC detective accused of pointing gun at officer over microwaved fishInside Post Malone's $3.1 million doomsday bunker with basketball court and wine cellarCrenshanda Williams v.

Cathy and Todd discuss Christopher Nolan's Interstellar for Space Month – the dying Earth, the wormhole near Saturn, the black hole that swallows decades of a man’s life while his daughter grows old without him.
