THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture For this week's second podcast review, Ema Sasic & Josh Parham join me to review and discuss Michael Shanks' "Together," starring Dave Franco, Alison Brie & Damon Herriman. The perfect date night horror film had its world premiere in the Midnight Section of the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, where it received positive reviews for its theme of co-dependency told through the body horror genre and utilizing the real-life chemistry between real-life couple, Franco and Brie. With a clever marketing campaign from NEON, the indie film has built up a ton of buzz, so we decided to review it for you all. What did we think of it? Please tune in as we discuss the premise, performances, humor, effects, what it has to say about relationships, its awards season chances, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

Vielleicht hilft es etwas gegen den FedCon-Blues: Clemens schildert seine Eindrücke von der FedCon 2025.

In this episode of the Holyrood Sources podcast, Energy Minister Michael Shanks discusses the establishment and significance of Great British Energy, the investment commitments associated with it, and the potential of floating offshore wind. The conversation also considers into the challenges posed by policies affecting Scotland's renewable energy sector, as well as the transition of jobs from the oil and gas industry to renewable energy roles. In this conversation, the speakers discuss the urgent need for a balanced energy transition in the UK, emphasising the importance of oil and gas alongside renewable energy sources. They explore the challenges faced by the industry, including job losses and the need for community involvement in energy projects. The conversation also highlights the significance of carbon capture technology in achieving climate goals and the necessity for government support in facilitating these transitions. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by frequent guest Eric for Season 5, Episode 21, “Meridian”. This is it, folks, when Daniel dies for a whole season or so. There are speculations between Eric and Tegan about Grey's Anatomy and ascension, some musical performances, and a great deal of discussion about rumors as to why Michael Shanks left the show. What do we all think of Diet Daniel Jackson? Find out! Join the discussion on our socials.

The Energy Voice crew are back in the studio, as Ryan, Mathew and Michael sit down to discuss an increasingly shaky energy transition. Case in point – BP and its recent decision to slash low-carbon investment by $5bn. They said went “too far too fast,” in its shift to renewable energy. Now the company is reevaluating its commitment to clean energy and refocusing on its core oil and gas business. We also chatted with Cameron Sword – he caught our attention when he put some pointed questions to Michael Shanks during a BBC Debate Night, so we spoke with him about his thoughts on the future of the energy sector. And to wrap things up, Mat talks about the latest manoeuvres to create a future for Grangemouth and save 400 jobs. But can clean energy, be it sustainable aviation fuel, hydrogen or carbon capture create a business case for the facility?

This week's episode focuses mainly on the rapidly changing shape of international relations under the influence of the Trump administration.Keir Starmer made a major speech at Westminster signalling an increase in defence spending from 2.3 to 2.6% from 2027 onwards. This at the expense of aid and development. We analyse the speech and how he sought to secure not only support in the Commons but across the nation.Starmer flies out to meet Trump on Thursday in the wake of the USA siding with Russia at the United Nations over the war in Ukraine. How will he handle this? What does the UK's abstention in the UN Security Council vote tell us about this? In Germany the CDU/CSU became the largest party after the recent elections. However the far right AfD surged into second place. Will Merz, the leader of the CDU be able to form a coalition with the Social Democrats? Do his outspoken statements on Trump, NATO and Russia mean a complete change in pan European defence and security policy?Anas Sarwar claimed that the £200 million pound "investment" by the National Wealth Fund had secured the future of Grangemouth and showed the benefit of a Labour government. We subject both those statements to scrutiny.Along the way we look at the threat of AI legislation to the creative industries, Michael Shanks on Eigg, and biscuits. ★ Support this podcast ★

We're unhinged, but what else is new? MK and Courtney talk about Lifeboat, Michael Shanks acting ability and why writers always have the most cop out answers about things.

As Season Four draws to a close with episode 300 it seemed appropriate to invite Dr. Daniel Jackson himself, Michael Shanks, back to the program. We are excited to share more stories from the show and to give you an opportunity to ask him your questions!

The day has finally arrived, lovely listeners, when we get to discuss this testament to postmodern television! Martin Lloyd is back and he has written a television show that is eerily reminiscent of the Stargate Program.  Silvana and Tegan are excited to be joined by their very special guests Eric and their military advisor, Rob.  Where was Katharyn Powers in this episode?  Join the discussion on our socials.  

Merry Christmas Nerds and Murds!!! Welcome to another special episode where we once again have Guestery. We welcome in Brenda and Megan Shanks. Brenda is Michael Shanks wife from 2 Geeks and a Microphone while Megan is their usual moderator helping keep things on track for their show. They joined today to discuss our top five musicals. Each of us picked five and we will discuss them here for your enjoyment. Then as we turn to another sad take on the Murdery side of the house, Geoffrey tells the tale of the murder of Lauren Landazazo.  Have a very Merry Christmas!!!For your 30 day free Audible Trial go to: Audibletrial.com/nerderyandmurderyFor 10% off with BetterHelp go to: betterhelp.com/nerderyandmurderySupport the show

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 9 "Between Two Fires". This is the end of the Tollan storyline and the end of Narim and his cat.  Silvana explains Legends of the Hidden Temple to Tegan. The ladies discuss our duties as citizens of a nation and the better downfall of the Tollan via infiltration instead of invasion. Tegan still wants justice for Hebron, and we could have gotten it this time! The ladies also wonder whatever happened to Narim's feelings?  Join the discussion on our socials.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by Eric, who discusses An Ascended Being Maxed Out My Credit Cards and his thoughts on Orlin.  The three then discuss Season 5, Episode 7 "Beast of Burden". Chaka has been captured by offworld 'slavers' who use Unas for their menial labor. Daniel does his best to rescue Chaka without burning down this world, but will he succeed? Join the discussion on our socials. 

Joining Iain Dale on Cross Question this evening are energy minister and Labour MP Michael Shanks, political commentator Yasmin Alibhai-Brown and former Conservative strategist Samuel Kasumu.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 6 "Rite of Passage". This episode brings back the character Cassandra but played by the actress from "Bane".  Check out our episode on "Singularity" ("The Distant Land of Toronto") and "Bane" ("Get Jeff Goldblum! We've Got A Bug Transformation Problem!").  This episode reminds both ladies of the first X-Men movie.  Someone is in a bed the whole episode, so of course Peter DeLuise directs. Join the discussion on our socials.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 4 "The Fifth Man". If only they had made this the fifth episode!! The SG-1 team has a fifth member, or does it? An alien has convinced them that he is an injured member of their team in need of help. Will we ever see this race again??? Absolutely not. What if Simmons was a Reol? Silvana and Tegan come up with a great story line for the Reol race.  Spoiler warning for season 1 of Rings of Power. Join the discussion on our socials. New episodes released weekly on Mondays. 

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 3 "Ascension". In this episode an ascended being takes a shine to Sam and hitches a ride home so he can stalk her. If he stalks her long enough, will she love him? YES?!  This Sam-centric episode has some great scenes: Teal'c in a cowboy hat, for example. However, even Amanda Tapping's great acting and Jack not into Star Wars can make up for all the scenes in which we are screaming.  Silvana learns what she's supposed to say back to "live long and prosper". Tegan is shamed for not bringing a towel places. Silvana proposes having an onsite therapist at the SG-C for crewmembers and psychological analyses of aliens they encounter. What do you think? Join the discussion on our socials. Apologies for some of the background noise. There is a construction zone at Silvana's house that is thankfully over now! We'll now be back to our regularly scheduled episodes every Monday.  Fan letters were saved until the end since we dove right into this episode. We couldn't stop ourselves.  Thank you for your patience, lovely listeners!

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 2 "Threshold". Silvana questions if Bae'tac has a life insurance policy out on Teal'c after this episode. Tegan does not recommend candles around oxygen tanks. Just a PSA for our lovely listeners.  How does no one at the SG-C know Lord of the Rings well enough to recognize the name Va'lar? As usual, the ladies ask the hard hitting questions.  Join the discussion or check out our season rankings on our Linktree. We will be returning October 14 with our next episode!

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 5, Episode 1 "Enemies". This is the second part of a three parter, that the ladies are not fans of.  Silvana and Tegan brainstorm some better storylines where the main drive of the plot isn't Teal'c being brainwashed. This episode gets the highest marks yet for technical quality.  Thanks to Prop Nquity for the email! Check out "Pod Meets World" if you're a "Boy Meets World" fan.  Join our discussion on the socials.     

Hooray it's Sunday and that means another great episode of Nerdery and Murdery!!! Michael Shanks from Two Geeks and a Microphone and his wife Brenda stayed around this week as Zig discusses Rolling Stone Magazine's best songs of the 1980s. Should be another controversial week.

Alex Forsyth presents political debate from the Skypark in Glasgow

Silvana and Tegan discuss the tier ranking for Season 4 of "Stargate SG-1." There are some obvious episodes, like "Window of Opportunity" or "Point of No Return".  Sorry, we were too late with our "Jane the Virgin" warning; you'll just have to find it somewhere else.  Episodes with Jack/Sam romance immediately lose ranking. Silvana and Tegan take Sophia's opinions into consideration when deciding where to put "Entity".  Surprisingly, "The First Ones" was a bigger hit than anticipated. Check out the tier ranking and other links on our Linktree.

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 21 "Double Jeopardy" and answer the question what does this have to do with the game show "Jeopardy"? This episode is Michael Shanks's directorial debut and features the actor who plays Lurch in the Addams Family.  Harlan is back! He really does not understand what SG-1 does.  Check out our instagram and other links on our linktree.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by their good friend and fellow podcaster, Sophia from Where's Beverly, for Season 4, Episode 20, "Entity". This is Sophia's favorite episode! She "must preserve!" Silvana dares Tegan to write the next fan fiction. Sophia explains why this is the best episode of Stargate. Sophia and Tegan discuss the medical inaccuracies in this episode, despite their onsite medical advisor. What would Stargate have looked like had Samantha Carter's body died and brought her back in a different body or used the robot Carter? Where have we seen that before... Check out our instagram and other links on our linktree. Where's Beverly Instagram Previous episodes with Sophia: "It's Equality"   

TW: Suicide/self-harm Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 18, "The Light". Once again, there is a strong need for a therapist on base, but there is not one! There's not even a trigger warning for this episode... SG-1 is challenged by a planet that has a narcotic effect on anyone that visits it. They meet a teenager named Loren and rescue him from this planet - to never be seen again. Silvana asks the most important question of this episode: Where are they defecating? is Teal'c an honorary Jehovah's Witness? Was there a Little Finger gao'uld equivalent? Check out our website, socials, and tier rankings on our Linktree.

Silvana and Tegan are joined by guest star, Eric, for Season 4, Episode 17 "Absolute Power". In this episode, the Harsesis Child arrives at the SG-C to make Daniel fall asleep and dream of an alternative reality. The three discuss the child actor chosen for the Harcesis Child. Tegan finds it weird that this is back to back with "2010", since neither results in much change in the overall storyline. Will absolute power corrupt Daniel Jackson? Absolutely. Is breakfast a conspiracy? Join the discussion on our socials.

Tegan and Silvana watch Season 4, Episode 16 "2010". This episode is one of Silvana's favorite episodes and takes place ten years in the future. The Stargate program has been revealed to the world when a highly advanced people called the Aschen offer to share their technology with Earth. Could they be why the Earth birth rate is dropping? Yes, of course it is.  This episode has some excellent easter eggs, especially when the team visits the SG-C as a museum site.  Tegan didn't enjoy this episode as much as Silvana, but what did you think? Is this one of the best episodes of Stargate SG-1?

We move on to the next Daniel Jackson partner who becomes a goa'uld host.  We find out a little about Daniel Jackson's past before the film when he returns to his alma mater after the death of his closest professor.  Evidence is mounting that Sam Carter is queer!  We answer the question: Can Teal'c read English?

Silvana and Tegan watch Season 4, Episode 9 "Scorched Earth". The ladies love this episode and suggest it as a great one to start people on Stargate.  The SG-1 team are helping a group of people settle a new planet, but another civilization has already started terraforming it! How will the team solve this one? Answer: with the Daniel Jackson we've all been waiting for! With a little conversation, Daniel is able to solve everyone's problems. How is this advanced civilization not one of the original four races? This is rather like Horizon Zero Dawn, from the perspective of the Gadmere.  Maybe it is just because Silvana is an Agile Coach, but this episode provides a great example of agile culture vs command/control structure.  Join the discussion!

Silvana and Tegan watch season 4, episode 8 "The First Ones". Daniel Jackson is kidnapped by an Unas as a sacrifice, and the SG-1 team has to track them to rescue him. Silvana and Tegan speculate about how the Jaffa could use this world to their advantage. What exactly is Chaka?  Join the discussion on Discord or Instagram by visiting our Linktree.

It's an acting master class from Michael Shanks (and Teryl Rothery) as Daniel Jackson gets a dozen other consciousnesses downloaded into his brain in Lifeboat. Also, the actor who plays Pharrin does an absolutely incredible job. Would it have worked if all the members of SG1 had also had passengers downloaded into their brains? As much as we do love this episode, SG1 is always at its best when it's The Team vs. The Problem. This episode is definitely one that we would have liked a better wrap-up for.

They Call Me Rommie Lexa Doig of Andromeda, Stargate SG-1, Arrow, Flash Gordon, and so many other shows joined us to talk about her career, life, and even some questions from our listeners and social media followers. Lexa tells us about working on Andromeda, Jason X, and even what it was like to work on set with her husband, Michael Shanks, as the character Carolyn Lam. And were you aware of the Cat Distribution system? We were not. But we did find out how Lexa got "Grey Cat" ... apparently it was through the Cat Distribution System ... Also, find out what characters Lexa would like to play again and if she would make any changes to those characters!

The team sit down with Shadow Scottish Secretary Ian Murray MP to discuss how he sees the current relationship between Westminster and Holyrood, and what a potential future Labour government would do differently. The MP for Edinburgh South shares his thoughts on Michael Shanks' Rutherglen and Hamilton West by-election win and how Anas Sarwar is doing as Scottish Labour leader, the independence movement, Labour councillors resigning over leader Keir Starmer's Israel/Gaza comments, and his stance on devolution. For a range of political interviews, subscribe to Podlitical on BBC Sounds.

Labour celebrates victory in the Rutherglen and Hamilton West by-election, with leader Keir Starmer claiming the party "blew the doors off" as candidate Michael Shanks oversaw a landslide win over the SNP. The team gather to discuss the mood on the ground in Rutherglen and Hamilton West, what this might tell us about the next General Election (and what it doesn't), and where this leaves First Minister Humza Yousaf's SNP following their first defeat since he took office.
