Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay quit their jobs at the diner kitchen in dramatic fashion so they can rush home and talk about the second half of 'Heat.' In the continuation of their special two-part coverage of the movie, they discuss the back half that features the greatest shootout scene caught on camera. It's 30 years later and the scene is still untouched, and filled with minute details from Michael Mann as the actors clearly displayed military handling of the weapons, and the director even made sure the bags of money were close to how much they'd weigh in real life. After shattering the cerebral touch of the first half of the flick with the shootout, the movie shifts to a revenge thriller as Rober De Niro's McCauley goes on a mission to tie up loose ends, while Al Pacino's Vincent's home life falls to pieces. Both men are forced to deal with the consequences for their poor decisions, as the film ends with a violent encounter that solidifies their feelings for one another. Andy and Bombay then take a moment, wipe away their own tears, and bask in the beauty of their favorite movie.

Send us a textSPECIAL NOTE: SEASON 15 OF THE GOOD, THE POD AND THE UGLY CELEBRATES THE USE OF THE PRACTICAL AND DIGITAL EFFECT KNOWN AS THE SQUIB. IRL GUN VIOLENCE IS INTOLERABLE AND RENOUNCED BUT... CINEMATIC VIOLENCE WILL BE CELEBRATED IN A WAY WHICH WILL DISTURB SOME LISTENERS.  TGTPTU returns to its regularly scheduled Squib Games (S15) with the earlier of its latest temporal pincer movement pairing, TO LIVE AND DIE IN LA (1985).  Directed by William Friedkin, this is another Big Willie movie but not a Wyler: the second William has the credited surname of Peterson and this is his first film. William Peterson was so new to film acting that he called his fellow Chicagoan thespian buddy John Malkovich to see what he should quote as his asking price to play the lead character of Richard Chance, a thrill-seeking Secret Service agent who'll lose his partner only days from retirement (red-shirted partner's, not Chance's) and will get a new partner in John Pankow's Agent John Vukovich to pervert in his (Chance's) vengeful pursuit of a counterfeiter played by Willem Dafoe. (Next year Peterson would play another officer of the law in Manhunter as covered during TGTPTU's Mann Aged Season {S5,E5}; as an EPISODE CORRECTION Pankow did not portray Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Miloš Forman's film Amadeus but had done so at the Broadhurst Theatre, replacing Tim Curry.)  Because it's a Friedkin flick, there's an epic car chase meant to top The French Connection; because it's shot from a Friedkin script (adapted from a novel by former Secret Service agent Gerald Petievich, who receives a cowriting credit), there was a lot of improvisation on set driven by the actors, with both the ending and opening scenes re/written during shooting. Mentioning actors, the film is stacked with supporting roles by Dean Stockwell, John Turturro (who'll get more mention later in Season 15), and the Michael Mann-created film noir for television Crime Story's very own Darlanne Fluegel (listen back to S5,E6 for insights on this TV series).   TGTPTU hosts become split on the merits of the film. Thomas describes the movie as The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973) on neon cocaine, but—no spoilers—you'll have to listen to the ep for whether he believes this is a good thing. Also, Jack lets out the three-legged dog and Ryan, while finding it impossible to resist singing the title, has issue with William Pederson. Ken convinces everyone to Wang Chung tonight.  THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay get back from dealing with three dead bodies off the sidewalk of Venice Boulevard to talk about the movie that led to the impetus of Degen Cinema. It's a very special 100th episode as the fellas discuss a film they are so obsessed with it had previously been off-limits of even being mentioned on the podcast, Michael Mann's Heat. In this episode they tackle the diner scene and everything earlier as this was how the film was divided when first released on a double cassette VHS.  The boys recall the first times renting it in their youth, and then repeated viewings on cable, as this masterpiece featured the cinema equivalent of Magic Johnson vs. Larry Bird with Al Pacino and Robert De Niro squaring off at the height of their respective powers. Mann crafted this over the better part of two decades in the business, which included a lackluster TV movie that was basically a dry run for what would later become "Heat." A movie that, 30 years later, features what is still considered the best shootout scene captured on celluloid. Crafted with top to bottom incredible performances, it's also crammed with innumerable cool scenes, and unforgettable lines. You're gonna love this episode cause it's got a GREAT A**!

For the month of August, we’re highlighting episodes from the 2024-2025 season of Energy Policy Now. We’ll be back with new content, and a new season, on September the 9th. Former Republican U.S. congressman Bob Inglis offers a conservative perspective on climate solutions in discussion with Penn climatologist Michael Mann. --- (This episode was recorded on February 13, 2025, during Penn Energy Week) Politically conservative and concerned about climate change? In this special episode of the Energy Policy Now podcast, Penn climatologist Michael Mann talks with Bob Inglis, former Republican Congressman from South Carolina and current executive director of RepublicEN.org, about bridging the partisan climate divide. In a wide-ranging conversation recorded live during Energy Week at Penn 2025 at the University of Pennsylvania, Mann and Inglis discuss a conservative view on climate change, how conservative messaging on climate has evolved over time, and how common solutions might be found in an era of partisan climate divide. Inglis also offers his view on carbon pricing and strategies to reign in carbon emissions in the U.S. The conversation is moderated by Sanya Carley, faculty director of the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy. Bob Inglis is a former U.S. representative for South Carolina’s 4th congressional district. He is the executive director of RepublicanEn.org at George Mason University. Michael Mann is director of the Center for Science, Sustainability and the Media at the University of Pennsylvania. Sanya Carley is the Mark Alan Hughes faculty director of the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy. Important note on the conversation: Due to a technical problem, the first two minutes of Bob Inglis’ conversation are difficult to hear (from 5:40 to 7:40). We’ve transcribed those two minutes in the show notes, below, to make it easier to follow along. A full transcript of this and all Energy Policy Now podcasts is available on the Kleinman Center for Energy Policy website. Bob Inglis (5:40): Yeah, so for my first six years in Congress I said that climate change is nonsense. All I knew was that Al Gore was for it. And as much as I represented Greenville-Spartanburg South Carolina, that was the end of the inquiry. Okay, pretty ignorant. But that’s the way it was my first six years. Out of Congress six years, as you just heard, doing commercial real estate law again and then, had the opportunity to run for the same seat again before, our son had just turned 18, so he was voting for the first time, and he came to me and he said, dad, I’ll vote for you. But you’re going to clean up your act on the environment. His four sisters agreed, his mother agreed. New constituency, you know. So you got to respond to those people who can change the locks on the doors to your house, you know. So, very important to respond to these people. And so that was step one of a three step metamorphosis. Step two was going to Antarctica with the [House of Representatives] Science Committee and seeing the evidence in the iceberg drillings. Step three was another Science Committee trip and, um, really a spiritual awakening which seems improbable, right, on a godless Science Committee trip, because we all know that all scientists are godless. Right? Well, apparently not. Because this Aussie climate scientist was showing me the glories of the Great Barrier Reef. I could see he was worshipping God in what he was showing me. You know, St. Francis of Assisi supposedly said “preach the gospel at all times. If necessary use words.” So Scott Heron, this Aussie climate scientist who’s now become a very dear friend was doing that. I could see it in his eyes, it was written all over his face. It was in his excitement about what he was showing me. He was clearly worshipping God. So I knew we shared a world view. Forty words were spoken.

Dr. Michael Mann is Presidential Distinguished Professor of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania. He also serves as Director of the Penn Center for Science, Sustainability, and the Media, and Vice Provost for Climate Science Action and Policy.Dr. Mann first entered the public consciousness in the late 1990s with his "hockey stick graph," a reconstruction of Earth's climate history over the past 1,000 years. The graph became both a cornerstone of climate science and a lightning rod for controversy.

Welcome to The B-Side! Here we sometimes talk about movie stars! We sometimes talk about movie directors! Today, we talk about both! Specifically, the B-Sides of the Mission: Impossible franchise. It's just Conor and I today folks, waxing poetic on Tom Cruise's legendary franchise and the B-Sides that we were inspired to discuss. We've chosen one for each of the Mission movies. It's also July 3rd on the day this episode is published, so happy 63rd birthday Tom Cruise! For the first Mission: Impossible, we speak on The Avengers from 1998. An adaptation of the popular British television series from the ‘60s, director Jeremiah S. Chechik's film was dismantled in post-production, slashed to ribbons following bad test screenings. The final product runs well under ninety minutes and is hard to understand. It sits on the other end of blockbusters in the ‘90s adapted from hit televisions from yesteryear. We also discuss the last five films Sean Connery made (animated film Sir Billi not included), as well as the ones he turned down. For Mission: Impossible II, we chose another John Woo American motion picture: Paycheck, starring Ben Affleck and The Avengers star Uma Thurman. This is a true B-Side, and the beginning of Affleck's now-infamous lost half-decade as a fledgling movie star. For Mission: Impossible III, we return to television inspiration. In honor of director J.J. Abrams, Conor and I go long on No Man's Land, one of the first produced screenwriting credits of Dick Wolf, who would go on to create the, ahem, Law & Order universe of shows. This Charlie Sheen/ D.B Sweeney vehicle walked so Point Break and The Fast and the Furious could run. There's chatter about David Ayer, that scene from Fire in the Sky, and how Charlie Sheen is always better when he plays the villain. For Ghost Protocol, we debate the Brad Bird B-Side Tomorrowland. We discuss libertarianism (for like two minutes) and the misbegotten message of the George Clooney blockbuster. For Rogue Nation we honor the Hitchcock homage of the opening and discuss one of Hitch's most underrated films: Topaz. Truly a can't-miss picture, which spurns a talk about the ideal Hitchcock leading man. For Fallout, there's Michael Mann's Blackhat. We appreciate the still underseen hacker epic, and make the claim that Chris Hemsworth is the best movie star of the original Avengers (Marvel this time, not British) not named Robert Downey Jr. For Dead Reckoning Part 1, Conor goes long on Hayao Miyazaki's Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro, from the little yellow car to the action to the animation. And, finally, for The Final Reckoning, we celebrate John Sturges' Ice Station Zebra. The second act of the final film in the series is a reimagining of sorts of the 1968 submarine epic, with way more stunts and underwater photography. There's also mention of the Billy Crystal 1997 Oscars opening, this lovely promo for the Albert Brooks movie Mother (ok it's not mentioned I just love it), and the Oliver Stone episode of the Light the Fuse podcast.

Im dritten Kapitel unserer Michael-Mann-Retrospektive arbeiten wir uns gleich an drei Superlativen ab. Denn sein Boxer-Biopic ALI (2001) gilt vielen als unwahrscheinlichstes Werk im Oeuvre des Filmemachers. COLLATERAL (2004) hingegen wird neben HEAT (1994) oft als seine beste Regiearbeit benannt und ist nicht zuletzt Dank der Cruise'schen Starpower Manns bis dato kommerziell erfolgreichster Film. Und dann wäre da noch der gehassliebte MIAMI VICE (2006), der manchen Menschen wie ein Verrat an der schwitzigen und heißgeliebten TV-Serie vorkommt - und von anderen als heimliches Meisterwerk abgefeiert wird.

It's the culmination of all the Michael Mann movies we covered before: the story feels like a more fleshed out version of Thief (1981) and there is a cops and robbers element that feels alot like Manhunter (1986), and of course, this movies is BEAUTIFUL to look at.

Based on the book that introduced the iconic serial killer Hannibal Lector, Manhunter lays the foundation for the massive crime thriller genre that would blow up in the 90s and early 2000s.

Its iconic downtown shootout, moody visuals, and the legendary diner scene have earned it a place among the greatest crime films ever made.Despite its acclaim, some critics point to Heat's nearly three-hour runtime and sprawling subplots as potential distractions from its central conflict.

Totally 80s and 90s Recall

This week, we're firing up the intensity with Heat, Michael Mann's epic 1995 crime saga that brought together two cinematic titans — Al Pacino and Robert De Niro — for the first time ever in a shared scene. (Yes, The Godfather Part II doesn't count — different timelines, folks.) Heat is a gritty, stylish, and emotionally charged cat-and-mouse thriller set against the moody backdrop of Los Angeles. Pacino plays Lt. Vincent Hanna, a relentless LAPD detective with a chaotic personal life and a flair for dramatic yelling. De Niro is Neil McCauley, a cool, calculating career thief who lives by a strict code: never get attached to anything you can't walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner. After a high-stakes armored car heist goes sideways, Hanna starts closing in on McCauley and his crew, which includes a young, twitchy Val Kilmer and Tom Sizemore in full 90s tough-guy mode. The film builds toward one of the most iconic diner scenes in film history — a quiet, tense face-off between Pacino and De Niro — and ends with a pulse-pounding airport showdown you won't forget. With a killer supporting cast (Ashley Judd, Natalie Portman, Jon Voight, and even a blink-and-you'll-miss-him Henry Rollins), a haunting score, and shootouts that still influence action films today, Heat isn't just a movie — it's an experience. Stylish, sprawling, and full of moral gray areas, it's Michael Mann at the top of his game.

In this week's podcast we talk about the murders of two Israeli diplomats in DC that were the direct result of demonizing a country and a people. A young couple who were going to plan their wedding are now dead, hunted down and shot outside the Capital Jewish Museum in the name of “Free Palestine”. And Free KNEECAP! Words we never imagined saying but we must defend free speech for everyone, even, members of a vile pro-Hamas Irish rap band. And ahoy again from the high seas, we have a special interview with the legendary Mark Steynby. We spoke with him about his decades long court case with fake Nobel laureate Michael Mann. We bring you the latest on Mann's apparent victory turned expensive defeat.And from the fall of Mann to the fall of man, Original Sin is the book about the Joe Biden coverup and we have a full review of the book including why the title is so stupid (and misleading). And we call out a slur on Ronald Reagan and remember his inspiring letter, announcing his Alzheimer's diagnosis AFTER he left office. You can read it here.And standby for a depressing update on Lucy Connolly, the UK mother incarcerated over a tweet.And we bring you yet another reason why you should never trust the medical establishment.Don't forget to subscribe and leave a comment wherever you get our content and please consider leaving a donation at unreportedstorysociety.com We are a 501(c)(3) so your donation will be tax deductible.And get the Scoop every day.

Oleg, Praz and Andy discuss all of the hot topics, like: can you bat Petecrow and Busch back to back, is Seiya a star, does Jed already have a contract extension, why doesn't Tommy Hottovy get more crap, and would you rather have the Dodgers' offense or the Cubs'? Plus they assign a new nickname to Reese McGuire, make fun of Ian Happ, blame one team for the lack of pitching trade candidates, mock a Mark DeRosa hot take and tell you which Michael Mann movie character Brad Keller looks like. All that, and more.
