Welcome to PTBN Pop's Movie Review of The Day! Every weekday we will be reviewing a movie whether it be currently in theaters, featured on streaming or just a film that we hold near and dear to us. This week with Toy Story 5 coming out on June 19th, we are going back to look at all of the previous movies in this great franchise. On today's episode, Steve Riddle is reviewing “Toy Story 3” from 2010 starring Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Ned Beatty & Michael Keaton.

We're back boys! Even when he's not donning cape + cowl as Batman, Michael Keaton is one of the weirdest and most interesting movie stars to emerge from the '80s, For their third installment of DuoVision, the fellas find themselves taking in the eccentric Pittsburgh actor's '90s thrillers: PACIFIC HEIGHTS and DESPERATE MEASURES.

An engineer is laid off and becomes a stay-at-home dad, and hijinks--and gender--ensue. Not quite as off-putting as it could have been thanks to some very funny performances from Michael Keaton and Teri Garr, but it's still a hackneyed, reactionary premise. Starring Michael Keaton, Teri Garr, Martin Mull, Ann Jillian. Written by John Hughes. Directed by Stan Dragoti.

In this guest-hosted episode of the Derek Hunter Podcast, columnist Dean Karayanis — New York Sun columnist and longtime member of Rush Limbaugh's “highly overrated staff” — dives into a wide-ranging, culturally sharp monologue exploring how modern society has cheapened life, diluted powerful historical lessons, and substituted serious political discourse with empty media crosstalk. Dean reacts to the Democratic Nazi candidate for Senate in Maine, Graham Platner, smearing Senator Collins (who voted to convict President Trump in his second impeachment trial) “set me to die” in Iraq, contrasting it with General George S. Patton's authentic, uncompromising World War II ethos. He explores how the cinematic portrayal of Patton by George C. Scott has shaped our collective memory of war, and how Hollywood narratives have warped our understanding of historical conflicts like Vietnam. Turning a critical eye toward the media landscape, Dean dissects the tragic passing of hockey legend Claude Lemieux, using it to launch a stark, data-driven critique of Canada's controversial MAID (Medical Assistance in Dying) program. Drawing from his own professional background in veterinary medicine, he explains the profound psychological toll that ending life takes on the human brain and warns against a culture that treats human existence as a mere "clump of cells." Finally, Dean analyzes the upcoming Texas Senate race involving James Talarico, the pitfalls of Republicans relying on cheap mockery instead of serious policy persuasion, and the return of The Washington Star. He wraps up the hour with a refreshing media contrast: Michael Keaton's viral, purely entertaining commencement speech at Kent State, proving that public figures can still choose to uplift an audience rather than make everything about themselves in service of left-wing politics.

Welcome to the Video Store Podcast.The balloons are up. The popcorn machine is running full blast. The sno-cone machine is free today.Here at the Video Store Podcast, we're celebrating 100 episodes!For this special anniversary, we wanted to do something worthy of the occasion. No clip-show flashbacks. No “greatest hits” countdown. Instead, we headed behind the counter and pulled out four of the biggest VHS releases of all time, the movies that didn't just dominate the box office, but helped define the home video revolution.These were the rentals everyone wanted. The tapes that were always checked out on Friday night. The films that transformed the VCR from a luxury item into the centerpiece of family entertainment.For our 100th episode, we're revisiting four legendary films that helped build video store culture as we knew it.Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982)Directed by Nicholas Meyer, this sequel took the Star Trek franchise in a sharper, more dramatic direction. Admiral James T. Kirk faces his greatest adversary, Khan Noonien Singh, in a tense and deeply personal battle of strategy, revenge, and sacrifice. With Ricardo Montalbán delivering one of science fiction's most unforgettable villain performances, The Wrath of Khan remains one of the greatest sequels ever made.Its real legacy, however, may be what happened after theaters.Paramount made a bold gamble and priced The Wrath of Khan at just $39.95. The result shocked the industry. The tape became the highest-selling VHS release to date.That decision helped reshape home media forever and opened the door for the home video collecting boom of the 1980s.Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)Harrison Ford's Indiana Jones burst onto screens in 1981 with whip-cracking charisma, globe-trotting action, and one of cinema's most instantly recognizable openings. From the giant rolling boulder to the snake-filled Well of Souls, Raiders delivered nonstop thrills while redefining what modern adventure filmmaking could be.When it arrived on VHS in late 1983, priced at the same consumer-friendly $39.95, Raiders generated massive pre-orders and sold more than a million copies within two years. It became one of the first films to demonstrate that a blockbuster could enjoy a hugely profitable second life in home video.It was the kind of movie families brought home again and again, the perfect repeat-viewing experience that made it a cornerstone of early home libraries.The Karate Kid (1984)The Karate Kid was one of those movies families rented over and over again until every line of dialogue was memorized. Released in 1984, the story of Daniel LaRusso, Mr. Miyagi, and the All-Valley Karate Tournament struck a perfect balance of heart, humor, action, and inspiration.On VHS, The Karate Kid became one of the defining family rentals of the decade.Unlike the spectacle-driven blockbusters on this list, its success proved that emotionally resonant, character-driven stories could thrive in the home video market. It became a staple of Friday night rentals, sleepovers, and repeat family viewings.Batman (1989)The summer of 1989 belonged to Batman.Tim Burton's Batman wasn't just a hit movie, it was a full-scale cultural event. Michael Keaton's brooding Dark Knight, Jack Nicholson's unforgettable Joker, Danny Elfman's thunderous score, and Gotham's gothic atmosphere transformed superhero cinema forever.It was darker, moodier, and more cinematic than anything audiences expected from a comic book adaptation.Then came the VHS release.Warner Bros. priced Batman at an aggressive $24.95, making it one of the most accessible blockbuster home video releases of its era. Stores stacked walls of black-and-gold VHS boxes. Cardboard standees filled lobbies. Television commercials hyped its release like another theatrical event.The theatrical release made Batman a cultural obsession. The VHS release made it part of everyday life.Thank You for 100 EpisodesFrom Star Trek II changing VHS pricing forever, to Raiders proving the power of repeat home viewing… from The Karate Kid becoming a family rental institution to Batman turning home video into a national event, these weren't just great movies.They were the tapes that defined Friday nights.They built home video libraries, filled video store shelves, and helped create the culture we celebrate every week here at the Video Store Podcast.To everyone who has listened, shared the show, and stopped by the store these past 100 episodes: thank you!Until next time — be kind, rewind.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

This is a special episode because this is my fresh, hot, and first watch of Beetlejuice. Yes, you read that right. I am a child of the 80s and somehow I have skated through life without seeing this movie. In the episode I explain how and why. Since it's October spooky season, Mikey is along for the ride as an expert in all things scary and/or comedy. I'm here to report that I loved it and I sincerely think that we all identify with Lydia. I feel like I've been channelling her my whole life without knowing it. We get into the amazing FASHION, the stacked cast, and how I was shocked to find out that Beetlejuice was a sleazy salesman and all around weirdo. off-topic rants include: Terminator series, new horror, Tales from the Crypt *released on October 10,2024 Winona Vogue Interview: https://youtu.be/IH1CwEE1QWM?siZRyy5B5jvVZKHG -- Get BONUS episodes on 90s TV and culture (Freaks & Geeks, My So Called Life, Buffy, 90s culture documentaries, and more...) and to support the show join the  Patreon!  Hosts: Lauren @lauren_melanie & Mikey @agentmikey007 Follow Fashion Grunge PodcastFind more Fashion Grunge on LinktreeJoin me on Substack: The Lo Down: a Fashion Grunge blog/newsletter☕️ Support Fashion Grunge on Buy Me a Coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fashiongrunge

We use one whole episode to figure what is better: one GOOD cop or one TOUGH cop. Well maybe neither one is better. But we do talk a whole lotta 90's power houses like Michael Keaton, Anthony LaPaglia, Stephen Baldwin, Chris Penn. And we also review the new Renny Harlin Deep Water shark movie and The Devil Wears Prada 2

In the aftermath of Batman Returns, Bruce Wayne struggles with a city that's turned against him. When an armored arsonist called Firebug begins targeting Batman's allies—the GCPD, the Gotham Globe, and anyone who defended the Dark Knight—Bruce must forge new armor to survive the flames. But Firebug's vendetta runs deeper than Bruce expected, forcing him to confront a painful truth: innocent people have been caught in the crossfire of his war on crime. To protect Gotham, Batman must become something more than a creature of the night—he must become their Guardian. Set between Batman Returns and the Batman 89 comic series, this original story explores how Michael Keaton's Batman earned the gold-armored Gotham Guardian suit seen in The Flash.Written by Ben Wan (Superhero Stuff You Should Know)Narrated by Tim MaxwellFeaturing the voice talents of Ben Wan, Ian Miller, Rose Salazar, and Eli McCaig

After The Incredible Hulk Returns was a ratings success, actor/director Bill Bixby seemed justified in wanting to bring the big green monster back. But he wanted more. Enter The Trial of the Incredible Hulk. This time, Bixby had Daredevil and a John Rhys Davies played Kingpin in tow. Though now, a big black bat played by Michael Keaton was fixing to come to the big screen a month after this film was broadcast. Could Bixby and company beat them to the punch and come out a ratings success? Rejoin Matt, Adam, and Garrett as they continue going through each TV movie associated with this iteration of The Incredible Hulk, capped off with a review of Ang Lee's 2003 big screen adaptation!

“Alex Murphy is made for her pleasure!” - Steve on the new suit designOn this week's show, we bring Remake-ril to a close with a chat about one of the worst Hollywood remakes of all time, RoboCop (2014)! Why did we need the “slick” new suit design? Why didn't they bother with any of the TV sitcom stuff like in the '87? Why did we need to have the wife and son be such larger characters? Was Joel Kinnaman right for Murphy? And speaking of Murphy, why are so many people calling him by his first name in this movie? Did any other film waste Michael Kenneth Williams' talent as much as this one did? And what in WORLD were they thinking going for the PG-13 rating? PLUS: “Dr. Norton? Commissioner Gordon. Commissioner Gordon? Dr. Norton…”RoboCop (2014) stars Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton, Abbie Cornish, Jackie Earle Haley, Michael Kenneth Williams, Jennifer Ehle, Jay Baruchel, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, and Samuel L. Jackson as Pat Novak; directed by José Padilha.Be sure to visit the WHM Merch shop over on Dashery and check out all the latest show-related designs you can slap on t-shirts, hats, coffee mugs, stickers, whatever!

Welcome to PTBN Pop's Movie Review of The Day! Every weekday we will be reviewing a movie whether it be currently in theaters, featured on streaming or just a film that we hold near and dear to us. With the release of “Michael” last week, this week we're focusing on other Bio Pics . On today's episode, Andy Atherton is reviewing “The Founder” from 2016 starring Michael Keaton, Nick Offerman, John Carroll Lynch, Linda Cardellini & Laura Dern.

This week on Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes take on "Gung Ho", the workplace comedy that blends culture clash with 80s charm.Both Mike Butler and Mike Field enjoy the film for its humor and overall fun factor, but they agree it comes with some noticeable issues. Michael Keaton carries the movie almost entirely on charisma and charm, as his character does not have a particularly strong arc and seems to change in the third act simply because the story demands it, rather than earning that growth.The Mikes also take issue with George Wendt's character, who comes off as one of the film's true villains. He is consistently ungrateful and disruptive, yet faces no real consequences and does not learn any meaningful lesson by the end. In contrast, Kazihiro is a much more compelling character, someone you want to root for, though the film leaves a lot of his personal story unexplored, especially when it comes to his family and transition to life in the United States.The ending is another sticking point. Instead of feeling earned, it leans on a convenient resolution where characters essentially pretend success into existence, rather than working toward a believable payoff. Still, the Mikes acknowledge that this may partly come down to modern expectations. Looking back at a film from a simpler era, where the focus was more on comedy than airtight storytelling, changes how it lands today.Despite its flaws, "Gung Ho" remains an enjoyable and easy watch, driven by Keaton's performance and a steady stream of laughs.What's your favorite 80's workplace comedy?

Send us Fan MailCan a dad truly master the delicate art of motherhood without turning the kitchen into an inferno? In this episode of Entertain This! Podcast, we revisit the 1983 comedy classic Mr. Mom, starring Michael Keaton as a newly unemployed executive thrust into the uncharted territory of full-time domesticity. We confront the persistent stigma that “dads can't handle the job,” drawing pointed comparisons to our own family experiences with role reversals.  Along the way, we recount the uproariously chaotic day-to-day realities faced by a novice stay-at-home father—from culinary disasters to tactical diaper deployments—proving that parenting's greatest challenges transcend gender and deliver equal measures of humility and hilarity. Tune in for a sharp, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud examination of family dynamics that may just redefine who wears the apron in your household.Support the show

Co-Host Rob Judge (https://mountaintoppodcat.com/robai) As much as I'd love to be, I can't be on call to every one of you guys I work with 24/7. I mean, I've been known to try...and I do get texts from guys right before 2am California time wondering how to get a woman's number at the bar before it closes.  Well, my long-time friend and fellow men's coach Rob Judge has the same exact predicament. So as it turns out, both of us independently arrived at the same conclusion: We need AI versions of ourselves. After all, we can't clone ourselves like Michael Keaton in Multplicity, right? Nor would we want to, really, because if you've seen the flick each new clone gets stupider. What we needed was an even smarter version of ourselves here, if possible. Enter RobAI and VAMANOS. Curiously enough, both of us have pics on our respective websites of ourselves as sort of holographic "ghosts" helping a guy succeed with women. So I guess you could say it's more like we ghosted ourselves than cloning ourselves! But what's in it for YOU? I mean, you've probably noticed I have been pretty harsh on AI for the past few years. Well, the solid truth is like talking actors, TV and the Internet before it, AI is not a fad. Whether it originally brings about The Singularity and dooms humanity or not is a separate debate, but let's face it...if you aren't already taking full advantage of what AI can productively do for you, you're already WAY behind. So Rob and I talk about our AI systems and what they do for you, and what they honestly CAN'T do, too. For sure, we also talked at length about what real, live men stand to gain in our quest for self-betterment and success with women by using AI properly, both now and into the future. And while we're at it, we debated which AI draws hotter chicks. Rob won.

The juice is loose in St. Louis. In this episode of Mostly Superheroes, host Logan Janis sits down with local performer Bruce the Juice, a Beetlejuice-inspired cosplay entertainer bringing the chaotic spirit of Beetlejuice to events across the city.

Bruce shares his origin story, how he turned cosplay into live performance gigs, and wild behind-the-scenes stories from improv shows, cruise ship acting gigs, murder mystery theater, and unexpected celebrity encounters—including a hilarious casino moment with Tom Welling from Smallville.

Zoning Out Podcast (Presented by The Comedy Zone) is back — and this one starts with coffee instead of rum & coke, then immediately spirals into Valentine's Day chaos, venue horror stories, and the worst dates of all time. Jordan breaks down how his Valentine's Day brunch show got canceled because the venue “forgot” to reserve the space (with tickets already moving), and the crew debates the unwritten rules of Valentine's Day: when to keep it chill, when to break up, and why Denny's might be the most honest brand in America. Then we get into a full-on dating trauma dump: Crying on a first date because someone picked the saddest movie imaginable (Michael Keaton's My Life) A “date” that turned into IKEA labor… ending with someone falling asleep mid-assembly (and yes, parts may or may not have been stolen). The infamous “music playing out loud at the bar” situation that made everyone furious on principle. After the break, the guys do “60 Seconds of Something We Know Nothing About” — where they attempt to defend the indefensible and confidently spread misinformation for sport.  Also: show plugs + big announcements:  Jason Allen opens for Anthony Jeselnik (6 sold-out shows at Goodnights in Raleigh)   Jordan opens for Trish Suhr at a theater in Kannapolis   And don't miss Comics React Live — the live version of Jordan's music video reactions with stand-up in between (mid-2000s TRL/106 & Park vibes).

Los actores de doblaje vs la Inteligencia Artificial Cuando la huelga de escritores estalló en Hollywood en 2023 el tema de la Inteligencia Artificial quedó sobre la mesa. ¿Qué tanto puede esta herramienta desplazar el trabajo humano en actividades en las que la creatividad es pieza fundamental? Hoy, a casi tres años, la problemática sigue viva. En México, muy concretamente alrededor de la comunidad de actores de doblaje –la más poderosa de Latinoamérica– ha tomado un color muy peculiar. A últimas fechas sus voces han sido emuladas a través de la Inteligencia Artificial para lucrar con ellas y con los personajes a quienes han dado voz en español. Hace apenas unos días el gobierno mexicano anunció una serie de apoyos e incentivos al cine y la industria audiovisual. Entre ellos listaron una serie de medidas para proteger las voces de los actores de doblaje frente al plagio y predominantemente frente a la Inteligencia Artificial. ¿Qué tan efectivas son esas medidas? ¿Protegen realmente a los actores de doblaje? ¿Se les tomó en cuenta? ¿Solucionan en algo el problema? Para platicarlo invitamos a este podcast Cinegarage a René García, actor, actor de doblaje de amplia trayectoria, una leyenda que ha prestado voz a más de 200 personajes entre los que destacan Vegeta en Dragon Ball y Nick Wilde en Zootopia,  así como a actores como Tom Cruise, Michael Keaton y Keanu Reeves.

Part 6 in our "WTF was that Ending?" series is all about the 2005 Michael Keaton paranormal thriller White Noise, which is currently for rent or purchase on Amazon Prime. This movie had a very promising premise: a man loses his wife and starts to receive EVPs (electronic voice phenomenas) aka white noise with what sounds like his wife's voice, but that's not the only voice he pulls through; unfortunately, the ending fell flat. This is where we come in & re-write the ending once, twice or maybe more to fit the story just a tad bit better, if we do say so ourselves. Do you like the ending? If not, how would you change it?   'Salem's Secret' by Peter Gundry   Merchandise: https://dfwtopodcast.creator-spring.com/   Sponsored by:   Dietsmoke.com - use promo code DFWTO for 50% off your purchase Nourish - usenourish.com #NourishAffiliate Betterhelp: Visit betterhelp.com/dfwto to get 10% off when you sign up for your first month.

It's really accessible. His voice draws you in. He starts with these quirky topics. He'll be writing about Super Mario Kart. Within a few pages, he's talking about community and luck versus skill, and these bigger issues. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Hi, I'm Kimberly McCorkle, Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs at East Tennessee State University. From the moment I arrived on this campus, I have been inspired by our faculty, their passion for what they do, their belief in the power of higher education, and the way they are transforming the lives of their students. This podcast is dedicated to them: Our incredible faculty at ETSU. Hear their stories as they tell us why I teach. In this episode, we will sit down with Dr. Kevin E. O'Donnell, Professor of English and recipient of the 2024 Stephen L. Fisher Award for Excellence in Teaching from the Appalachian Studies Association. A native of Northeast Ohio, Dr. O'Donnell earned his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee and has taught at ETSU for more than 30 years. His courses include Advanced Composition, American Literature, Literary Nonfiction, and Environmental Writing. He's the author of numerous publications, including Seekers of Scenery: Travel Writing from Southern Appalachia, co-authored with Helen Hollingsworth. This year, he looks forward to the release of a new book, co-written with his ETSU colleague, Dr. Scott Honeycutt, titled The Woodlands of the Mind: Rambles Through Campus Forests. Enjoy the show. Dr. O'Donnell, welcome to the show. I start my podcast with the same question for every guest. Take me back to your first day as a faculty member at ETSU, and looking back on that day, what is one piece of advice that you would have given yourself? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Well, it's a great question. I have to think back and see if I can remember 30 years. It's half a lifetime ago, you know. But if I could give myself advice, I would say, young Kevin, trust the process. With writing, it's so challenging. You get papers from the students, especially in the first-year classes on the first day. And they've got all kinds of issues, and the first thing you see are the problems when you read them, and you want to fix everything. But just trust the process. You know, if they've got 15 weeks, if they get four or five good writing experiences, including revision and feedback, and over the course of 15 weeks, you can do a lot. Yeah. Thank you. Reflecting on your 30-plus years in the classroom here, how has your approach to teaching literature and composition changed over the years? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, that's kind of a related question. I don't think my philosophy has changed, but a lot of the technology has changed. I mean, I kind of developed the belief in grad school that you learn to write by having an audience, writing for audiences. But 30 years ago, typically, students would print one copy, and if you were lucky, you could circulate it, do some group work and stuff, but you couldn't publish it. And then with the development of the internet, making easier access to the internet available, I started publishing my students' work on the web, and then they started publishing their own, and you get it out in front of an audience a lot more. And that's great for writing pedagogy. And then multimedia, doing this kind of stuff, like the Whisper Room over in... We were talking about that earlier over in the Innovation Commons. Yeah. I've had my students doing that, so that's part of writing now, I think, is multimedia. You can't just think of it as words on a page. Typically, anything, it's words on a screen, and then the spoken word component, recording. So that's changed how I teach a lot. I'll have my students do an audio piece and then post it on YouTube, say. That's what they did last semester. They must enjoy that. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell The response to it was great. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle   How do you see the connection between storytelling and how we understand our environment, culture, and region? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, storytelling, I mean, it's... You could argue that all understanding is narrative. Like, people understand things in terms of people in places doing things, which is character-setting-plot, you know? So with the Environmental Studies minor, there's a required course that's environmental writing. We get students who are being trained in science, like biologists, who take that minor, and they come in and read some environmental literature, and you've got these science writers using narrative to make sense of the science. So I think it's a crucial component. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Which literary work or author has been especially rewarding for you to teach over the years, and why? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, I love that question. There's been a lot of them. I'm teaching a book this semester, a 2008 novel by Ron Rash called Serena, which is a super well-written, super fun novel, but it takes place in Haywood County, North Carolina, in the 1920s when the Smokies were being logged. So it's set against the backdrop of this huge natural resource extraction story that shaped Appalachia, the logging of the great Appalachian forest. But it's also really dramatic. It's got these tightly written chapters. There's some great villains and some shocking murders, and it's a great book. And Ron Rash is coming to our literary festival in April. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Fantastic. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell So students are reading that novel, and I've taught that four or five times over the years, and it's a great, great book for an environmental writing class. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Is he a regional author? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell He's at Western Carolina. He's down in Cullowhee. He's probably about ready to retire, but he grew up in upstate South Carolina. And yeah, he's a great writer. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle It must be great for students to connect to a book that's about the region. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, and a lot of students didn't know the story that it tells, and people know the area, recognize places where scenes take place. Yeah, so it's great. That's a good one. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Earlier this year, you presented an outstanding lecture to kick off this year's Common Read, The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green. What about that book resonated with you, and why do you think it was a good fit for ETSU's campus community? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, I think it was a great fit, or it seems to be getting a good response from students. And part of it, for 15 years or more, I was a fan of the Vlogbrothers. They do their YouTube science stuff. And the format is, it's basically the essay format. You've got two, 3,000 words. I love John Green's writing, for one thing. It's really accessible. His voice draws you in. And he starts with these quirky topics. Like he'll be writing about Super Mario Kart. And within a few pages, he's talking about community and luck versus skill and these bigger issues. And so I like that they're inviting, these essays are inviting and they draw you in. They're really accessible. You can read one in 15 minutes. And the five-star review format is kind of fun. Like that, my students want to write those. You give that as a writing assignment. Here's an essay, you're going to make it ostensibly a review of something. That you're going to give five stars. So your job is to evaluate. Students like it. So I think it was a good choice. I'm excited about him. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle That's great, yeah. I know, as you said, a lot of students are excited. They've connected to his work for a long time. Students who've said he taught them what they know about history, for instance. As you know, we are excited to be able to welcome John Green to campus in just a few days to speak at the ETSU Festival of Ideas. From your experience, how does engaging with an author and hearing them talk about their work deepen students' connections to a text compared to just reading it in a classroom? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, I think it's a big deal. It can change your relationship to the text. It sure humanizes it, you know? One thing about reading, even if you're reading for a class, reading seems like a really solitary activity. You go to your quiet space and you're sitting by yourself. But then these students are going to come together and see hundreds of other people who have also connected with the same text and see the author. It just makes it very visceral, the sense of how social reading is, even though it feels solitary in some ways it is, but it's a deeply social act. And I think one of the things I'm excited about is it's fun seeing other people who are excited about writing that you're excited about. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Right, yeah. Feels like you're in a community of readers when you watch an author talk about their work. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Right. Yeah, yeah. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle As I mentioned in the introduction, you have a book coming out this year. Will you please share a preview of The Woodlands of the Mind and a bit about what inspired you and Dr. Honeycutt to write the book? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, thanks for asking about that. So it was really inspired by the ETSU campus. We've got, well, you know about University Woods south of the railroad bypass there. We've got 30 acres of, couple dozen at least ancient oak trees up there. And it's a really special place. And Scott Honeycutt and I, for years we'd been taking our students over there to do classrooms and to do awareness stuff and to do walks. And back in 2018, I think it was before COVID, we wrote a small grant and brought an author to class, author to campus rather, Joan Maloof, who is a biologist from Maryland who's also written some very good books, including one that Scott and I are fans of called "Among the Ancients" where she goes around and visits different old, remnant old growth forests and writes about them, but also writes about regional history and natural history. So we brought her to campus. It turns out she's the founding director of the Old-Growth Forest Network. And long story short, she came to campus, did a public nature walk with people over in the woods and then did a talk in the evening at the old East Tennessee Room and generated a lot of excitement, which led to us forming an ad-hoc committee to see if we can get the University Woods to be part of the Old-Growth Forest Network. As a community forest, Dr. Noland, our awesome president, was very supportive of this. So long story short, later that spring, Joan came back on her own dime for a dedication ceremony we did where Dr. Noland spoke and read a little poem on some other people, and we designated it as a community forest. So that experience, Scott and I to look around and it turns out a lot of universities have often old-growth remnants, which are rare attached to their property, partly because of the history of universities and land use, especially in the East. So we started learning about these places. So we thought, well, no one's written about this. So we've selected 15 places from Rome up to Maine, some small colleges, some bigger schools, like Virginia Tech and Penn State. And we split them up and we went around and wrote, kind of inspired by Joan Maloof, these travel essays with history, natural history, and we package them together and sent our proposal to the University of Georgia Press, and the editor called us back the next day and said she wanted to publish it. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Congratulations. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah, thanks. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Look forward to reading it. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Awesome. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle What books do you have on your to-read pile and do you have any favorite books or authors that you'd recommend for consideration for future common reads at ETSU? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Right. Yeah, my to-read pile is pretty big and half of them I never get to. I own a lot of books I've never read. I'm glad to hear that it makes me feel less guilty. But something about owning them, I hope that maybe I'll soak up. I don't know. And even better if you put them on your bedside table to look at you, yes, yeah. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yes, one I was thinking about that I read recently is Beth Macy who is, she wrote a book called Dopesick that the Hulu miniseries starring Michael Keaton was based on, was pretty much directly from that book. And it's a great book. But more recently in the fall, she came out with a book called Paper Girl. It's sort of a memoir she tells about growing up underprivileged in rural Ohio and then goes back there now and finds a version of herself and to look at how kids don't have the same opportunities, basically, young people. And in the process she's also talking about being a journalist and how people respond or don't respond to journalism and conspiracy theorizing has sort of moved into the vacuum where journalism has moved out of and which sounds all serious, but it's a fun book and it got a lot of attention in the fall. That one, she lives down at Roanoke. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Interesting. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell We should get her up here. That would be a good one. But my dream author would be Elizabeth Kolbert. She's a New Yorker magazine writer who probably about 10 years ago she published a book called The Sixth Extinction which won the Pulitzer Prize for general nonfiction which is an amazing book. It's about the planet that is currently undergoing a major extinction event, which is a grim topic. But she writes these essays where she goes around and talks to people and they're really engaging. She's the best science writer I know and she's a best seller. I think there'd be enthusiasm about her. She's got a new book, which is a collection of her New Yorker essays. So Elizabeth Kolbert--I don't know if we could get her. I don't know if she does campus visits but she'd be a good get. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Great suggestions. Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Yeah. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Finally, what impact do you hope you've made on your students? Dr. Kevin O'Donnell Gosh, that's a big one. Been thinking about that a lot now that I'm 30 years into this. I would hope when my students leave my class they understand that good writing is about honesty. Because I think students come in and when they're supposed to do academic writing they feel like they need to adopt this persona that's the voice of authority. And they don't feel confident in that authority. So they put on a role. And that, as much as anything, leads to tangled sentences and unclear writing. But if you can be honest about your relationship to your material and your audience, and in a simple way, not like deep profound, doesn't have to be deep profound honesty, but that's honesty is what good writing is about. That's, I would hope students would leave my class with that understanding. Dr. Kimerly D. McCorkle Dr. O'Donnell, it's been a pleasure speaking with you. Thank you for your thoughtful reflections on teaching, literature, and the Common Read experience. Thank you for the way you engage your students with literature. I'm looking forward to adding your new book to my reading list this year. Thanks for listening to "Why I Teach."

     Did you know that inside this amazing lenticular VHS box is an actual movie? It's true!      When a truck of "Genetic Material" hits a truck carrying notorious serial killer "Jack Frost" in the sleepy little town of Snowmanton, an immortal killer snowman is born, and orgy of Christmas themed mayhem is set off.      (Also, this was great for the video store prank where you'd swap all the Michael Keaton movies with it, and traumatize some little kids.)  Matt and Tristan talk Jack Frost.

Junk Food Dinner returns for our annual holiday celebration and this year we're feeling particularly nostalgic! Up first, The Muppets gang crashes at Fozzy's mom's house for the holidays and they're bringing all their friends, even the Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock crew, in the 1987 TV special A Muppet Family Christmas. Then, we revisit one of Sean's favorite holiday traditions; we see what movies and electronics film critics Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert were recommending folks pick up in the Siskel and Ebert's 1990 Holiday Video Gift Guide! And finally, in the summer of 1992, one of biggest films was the blockbuster sequel Batman Returns. Tim Burton and Michael Keaton returned but this time Batman squares off against The Penguin (played by Danny DeVito) and Catwoman (played by Michelle Pfeiffer). But is it a Christmas movie? You bet your Batmobile it is! All this plus holiday cheer from our buddy Peter, tributes to some fallen heroes, Sean's epic new video mix tape and much more!LISTEN NOW:MP3 Direct DonloydAlso, if you like the show, please take a minute and subscribe and/or comment on us on iTunes, Stitcher, Blubrry or Podfeed.net.
