Is the tension between Free Will and God's sovereignty REALLY a mystery? Matthew McConaughey joined @TheDiaryOfACEO and shared some things about faith. @RuslanKD reacted. Dr. Tim Stratton and Josh Klein respond to both in this week's episode. Sure, there might be tension but it's not a mystery.

Buckle up, today we're getting philosophical! Matthew McConaughey joins us for a vulnerable and reflective conversation that reaches far beyond the pages of his new book, Poems and Prayers. We unpack some of life’s most elusive questions—Why are we here? What does it mean to live well? McConaughey personally opens up about his evolving relationship with uncertainty, the power of reinvention, and how he learned to live in the in-between spaces—where identity shifts, purpose gets blurry, and the answers don’t come easy. This isn’t a conversation about having it all figured out. It’s about learning how to live fully, honestly, and in pursuit of something deeper.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textA moment that's been 180 episodes in the making: the entire crew finally recording in person. We start the show with a heartfelt discussion about the passing of Diane Keaton, whose legacy sparks both nostalgia and debate.

Would a “modern Diane Keaton” even be possible in an era of Botox and CGI storytelling?We then pivot to something far less wholesome.... Jared Leto. We dissect the flop of Tron: Ares and Leto's mysterious Hollywood staying power. How does he keep getting cast in roles? Rhea explains Leto's insider connections at Disney, while Angelo draws parallels to other once-golden stars such as De Niro and Will Ferrell.We then get into California's ban on overly loud streaming commercials. Is this actually good for advertisers and is there already a way to fix it with your smart TVs? We then have a conversation about bad TV mixing, over-hyped anchors, and SNL's eternally off-balance soundboard.The spouses join in..... with Christina Black and Gal Cataldi giving their takes on their partner's TV habits. THEN: BRITISH CORNER: Rhea introduces Karen Pirie, a Scottish detective series on BritBox. How does the writing and binge-friendly episode format contribute to the show;s success? Angelo then reviews The Lost Bus on Apple TV+. It is  raw, emotional, and, according to the crew, one of McConaughey's best performances in years.Finally, Jay wraps things up with a quick dive into Peacemaker, discussing the incredible season finale. Carter ( Rhea's son) gives his fresh take from a Gen Z perspective.LISTEN NOW to stay up to date on all you need to know regarding the latest and greatest in television and the big screens.MAKE SURE TO VISIT OUR SPONSOR: Steven Singer Jewelers!The TV Show is a weekly podcast hosted by Jay Black, with regular guests Angelo Cataldi and Rhea Hughes.

Over the past three decades, Matthew McConaughey has starred in more than 50 films, won an Academy Award for Dallas Buyers Club, delivered an Emmy-nominated performance in True Detective and topped bestseller lists with his memoir, Greenlights, but he's still chasing something more meaningful. In his latest project, The Lost Bus, he tells the gripping true story of a school bus driver who risked everything to save 23 children during the 2018 Camp Fire, California's deadliest wildfire. McConaughey sits down with Willie Geist to reflect on acting alongside his teenage son Levi and his 93-year-old mother in the film and how the project deepened his perspective on fatherhood, legacy, and what really matters. He also discusses his new book Poems & Prayers, the power of belief in a cynical world, and why risk-taking has defined his career. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Paul Greengrass' The Lost Bus stars Matthew McConaughey and America Ferrera as a bus driver and teacher, respectively, who have to navigate a deadly Californian wildfire while stuck on a school bus with a group of terrified children, very little water, and fire and flames closing in on all sides. Based on a true story (the 2018 Camp Fire is one of the deadliest wildfires in US history), it's Greengrass at his intense best, conjuring a cinematic experience that's among the best depictions of the intensity of fire, heat and flames ever put on film. And in this interview special, Chris Hewitt sits down with Greengrass (on Zoom), and McConaughey and Ferrera (in person) to talk about the experience of making it. The film is out now on AppleTV+ and, while this isn't a spoiler special, reference is made throughout to key moments from the movie, so it might be best for you to have watched it beforehand. Either way, enjoy.

Si parte da Hotel Costiera, roba che manco Lori Del Santo avrebbe osato, tra sguardi fissi, occhioni azzurri e cagnolini rapiti da salvare a suon di cazzotti. Sì, è una serie vera. Da lì si salta ai redivivi RIS, a 24 e all'estetica split-screen da studiare per diventare youtuber colto. Passa Setzay, delude French Lovers, spunta la proposta geniale di un remake MCU-style su Bernadette. Poi: Young Sheldon fa ridere “come un cretino alle 4 di notte”, Le città di Pianura conquista con anarchia veneta da sbronzi, Testa o Croce prova un western laziale e affonda, Sim parte bene e poi si perde. Bene invece Together, horror di carne magnetica, e The Good Boy. C'è pure McConaughey eroe del fuoco in The Lost Bus, il biopic su Springsteen ancora da vedere ma con vibrazioni brutte, e The Pitt che riporta in vita le serie medical fatte bene. Il resto? Battute, ascoltatori espertissimi, e una gran voglia di Toblerone.

OK so you're telling me sombr's dad throws parties? And the new "nepo baby" is the "nepo sibling"?

Matthew McConaughey is an Academy Award-winning actor, bestselling author, and now the writer of Poems and Prayers, a deeply personal collection of poetry and reflections spanning 30 years that explores faith, hope, and purpose. Though he is one of Hollywood's most recognizable stars, McConaughey admits he's never felt the “ah, I did it” feeling, leading him on a search for deeper meaning through family, teaching, writing, and even advocacy, including speaking at the White House after the 2022 Uvalde school shooting. In this conversation, McConaughey sits down with Hoda to reflect on his evolving relationship with humility, gratitude, and belief and why writing has become his way to understand the world, inspire others, and remind us all to keep believing.

Then TD dusts off his crystal ball to make some bold predictions about what Apple might unveil at their developers conference today.

 “Can a logo change really cost a company $100 million?”In this episode of The JB and Sandy Show, Sandy, JB, and Tricia unpack the surprising backlash to Cracker Barrel's rebranding—and why it's stirring up so much emotion across generations.

The episode also dives into:A listener's passionate defense of Cracker Barrel's original vibe (“F the new CEO!”).The marketing psychology behind brand loyalty and why doubling down on tradition might be smarter than modernizing.Comparisons to Buc-ee's and the idea of Cracker Barrel becoming a road trip destination.A hilarious take on grandma's dining room decor—complete with spittoons and ticking clocks.Then, the conversation shifts to Chris Del Conte, UT's athletic director, who just signed a $38.8 million contract extension through 2036.

From beard preferences to meme etiquette, this hilarious segment reveals how dating changes when you know exactly what you want—and what you won't tolerate. But first, Sandy shares a jaw-dropping story about Vladimir Putin's travel routine that's equal parts bizarre and brilliant: his security detail reportedly collects his waste to prevent foreign governments from analyzing his health. Gross? Yes. Fascinating? Absolutely. Then, Tricia brings us the “Story We Love” featuring the Band Together Texas benefit concert at the Moody Center, where stars like Miranda Lambert, Matthew McConaughey, and Vince Young helped raise over $8.5 million for flood relief. The debate over who got the biggest crowd reaction—McConaughey or Vince Young—sparks some passionate Longhorn nostalgia. Notable Quotes:“If you spit, I'm out. No spitters allowed.”“You must be willing to buy feminine hygiene products without complaint.”“Putin's team collects his poo. That's next-level privacy.”“JB and I hugged once—and it was because Vince Young won the Rose Bowl.”Call to Action: If you laughed, cringed, or Googled “Putin bathroom protocol,” don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share The JB and Sandy Show with your friends.

Aaron and Derek know that destroying demons is good.

The tension between faith and delusion builds to a thrilling climax in FRAILTY, the Bill Paxton-directed y2k crime drama with Christian themes. Matthew McConaughey, who we recently reviewed as a cast member of 1994's ANGELS IN THE OUTFIELD, stars as a man recounting his troubled childhood as the son of a religiously-motivated murderer (Bill Paxton) to a detective (Powers Boothe) who is trying to solve the case of the God's Hand killer. This killer, who McConaughey's character Fenton believes is his own brother Adam, targets seemingly random victims who are allegedly demons in human form. According to Fenton, his brother Adam is carrying out the legacy of their father, who experienced religious psychosis that led to a series of murders carried out with an axe the man believed to be a magical weapon provided by God. Young Fenton and Adam react to their father's passion for God and murder in different ways; Adam's naive admiration for his father foils Fenton's teenage skepticism. The two boys are possibly a metaphor for the human journey of faith and doubt, a reading supported by a surprising twist revealing the true nature of God's prophecy. FRAILTY does a great job of exploring Christian themes in an edgy way that condemns blind faith while still understanding the importance of faith itself.

Human beings only can see less than 1% of the light spectrum." - Billy CarsonBilly Carson just shattered everything I thought I knew about reality. This isn't your typical "think positive" motivational talk - this is a deep dive into the actual structure of existence itself. Billy reveals that what we think is solid matter (like the table you're sitting at) is actually just light frequency slowed down to create the illusion of solidity. We're not even really touching anything - it's all electromagnetic repulsion between atoms. And here's the kicker: we're only perceiving less than 1% of what's actually happening around us.The conversation gets even more mind-bending when Billy explains how there are 11 dimensions stacked right on top of each other, separated only by frequency. From any dimension higher than our third dimension, you can see the past, present, and future all at once - exactly like that scene in Interstellar when McConaughey falls into the tesseract. This isn't science fiction; this is cutting-edge physics that completely reframes how we understand our place in the universe. If you've ever wondered what reality actually is beyond what your eyes can see, this conversation will expand your consciousness in ways you never imagined.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Read Emily's article in Current Affairs magazine here: https://www.currentaffairs.org/.../how-we-stopped-caring...   From the article: "In recent years, our pop culture landscape has become so dominated by athletic-wear brand deals and laxative pill endorsements that it's hard to remember an alternative. A-listers now seem to treat art like a side hustle, and advertising as their main career. It's not enough for McConaughey to earn millions by smoldering through the window of a luxury Lincoln SUV, or lounging shirtless for Dolce & Gabbana cologne. He just had to become the creative director for Wild Turkey Bourbon, launch his own “Pantalones Organic Tequila” brand, and now, lend his rugged charisma to AI platforms.

Wasted Potential Podcast is back and this time to ramble through 2011's Killer Joe directed by the devil himself William Friedkin. Its an NC-17 movie so you know Ronnie picked it and this whole podcast will be family friendly. Dan leads the discussion and asks our usual questions: when did we first see this film, 3 things we love about it, and 1 thing to change. So many metaphors are made as we laugh, we drink, and we cringe together. At 43:00 and 1:09:00 we talk spoilers. Skip to 56:45 and 1:31:27 respectively to avoid them. We usually don't care about spoiling older movies but the surprises are what make the film. The full video of Dan watching Killer Joe is available behind our Patreon paywall. For the low price of $5 a month (with an agreed 36 month payment commitment) you can watch 90 whole minutes of Hobo Dan drinking booze, smoking a vape, and hiding his face at all the cringey McConaughey moans.

Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyouCheck out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1784"Don't half-ass it." - Matthew McConaughey's FatherPicture this: a 20-year-old college kid sitting on a top bunk bed late at night, using a headlamp to secretly write in his journal after everyone else had gone out to party. That kid was Matthew McConaughey, and what he wrote down that night would seem absolutely insane to anyone else - "win an Oscar for best acting" - except he wasn't even an actor yet. He was just a film school student who was too afraid to even admit out loud that he wanted to perform, yet somehow had the audacity to dream of Hollywood's highest honor in the privacy of his own thoughts.Years later, after actually winning that Oscar, McConaughey discovered that old journal entry and experienced one of those spine-tingling moments that makes you question everything you think you know about dreams and destiny. His reaction says it all: "Are you kidding? Get outta here!" But here's what's really profound - he never looked at those goals again after writing them down, yet somehow "knew what they were" all along. This conversation reveals the mysterious power of turning invisible dreams into physical contracts with yourself, and how his father's simple but devastating advice - "Don't half-ass it" - became the driving force behind everything that followed.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Two movies are coming that I'm excited about: Abraham's Boys and Mike Hammer! We'll talk about them in the #MikeJonesMinuteCon.

Matthew McConaughey seemed to have it all: fame, wealth, and a secure reign as Hollywood's go-to romantic comedy star. But at the peak of his career, he stunned the industry by walking away from a $14 million offer for a role that everyone assumed he'd accept. Beneath the easygoing charisma and breezy scripts, McConaughey was searching for more, a deeper purpose and the freedom to reshape his path on his own terms. This isn't just another story from Hollywood; it's a powerful lesson in bravery, self-belief, and the choice to prioritize authenticity over comfort.

Welkom bij een nieuwe aflevering van Nerd Culture, dé nerd-podcast waar we alles bespreken wat speelt in de wereld van films, series, comics en popcultuur. In aflevering 212 duiken we in het laatste nieuws, checken we verse trailers en praten we je bij over alles wat je niet mag missen. Van Ridley Scott die afscheid neemt van Alien, tot geruchten over een terugkeer van True Detective met McConaughey en Harrelson, en Tony Gilroy die keihard moest knokken voor het budget van Andor seizoen 2. Zet je schrap, want we hebben weer een bomvolle show voor je klaarstaan!Ridley Scott is klaar met de Alien franchiseRidley Scott, de legendarische regisseur van de originele Alien, heeft aangekondigd dat hij niet langer actief zal bijdragen aan de franchise. Hoewel hij nog betrokken blijft als producent, vindt de 87-jarige filmmaker dat hij “genoeg heeft gedaan” na het regisseren van onder meer Prometheus en Alien: Covenant. Scott geeft aan dat hij na Alien Resurrection de kwaliteit van de reeks zag afnemen en betreurt dat Alien niet de status van Star Trek of Star Wars heeft bereikt. Toch koestert hij hoge verwachtingen voor de toekomst van de serie, zeker nu er nieuwe projecten aankomen zoals de film Alien: Romulus en de Hulu-serie Alien: Earth, waar Scott als uitvoerend producent bij betrokken blijft.True Detective keert terug naar z'n rootsNic Pizzolatto, de bedenker van True Detective, heeft onthuld dat hij een idee heeft voor een nieuw verhaal rond Rust Cohle en Marty Hart, gespeeld door Matthew McConaughey en Woody Harrelson. Hoewel hij nog niets heeft geschreven, heeft hij het concept al besproken met de acteurs, die openstaan voor een terugkeer. Pizzolatto stapte in 2019 zelf uit de serie nadat hij “spiritueel moe” was van de donkere thema's en zich wilde focussen op het vaderschap. Inmiddels werkt HBO aan een vijfde seizoen van True Detective met Issa López als showrunner, nadat zij eerder verantwoordelijk was voor Night Country.Streaming is dood volgens Disney insidersAndor-bedenker Tony Gilroy onthulde tijdens het ATX Television Festival dat hij hard moest vechten voor het budget van seizoen 2. Ondanks het succes van seizoen 1 kreeg hij van Disney te horen dat “streaming dood is” en dat er minder geld beschikbaar was. Gilroy vocht echter om de creatieve vrijheid en schaal van de serie te behouden. Hij benadrukte dat hij bij Andor nooit concessies hoefde te doen, zelfs niet toen controversiële uitspraken als “F*ck the Empire” werden gemaakt. Ondanks Disney's verschuiving van streaming naar bioscoopfilms blijft Andor een van de meest geprezen Star Wars-series tot nu toe. 00:00:00 Nerd Culture #21200:00:20 Wat gaan we vandaag doen?00:06:07 Wat hebben we gekeken/gelezen/geluisterd?00:06:30 The Phoenician Scheme00:10:30 Mission Impossible Rogue Nation00:14:47 Alien: Earth Trailer00:33:46 Ridley Scott is in principe klaar met de Alien franchise00:39:50 Tom Felton keert terug als Draco Malvoy00:42:23 George R.R.
