This Best Of replay features Erin Gallagher, the powerhouse founder of the Hype Women movement that went viral after Jamie Lee Curtis's pure joy celebrating Michelle Yeoh's Golden Globe win. Erin turned that iconic moment into a global call for women to stop seeing each other as competition and start becoming each other's biggest cheerleaders. From creating Fairway dinners to launching a movement that's reshaping how we support one another, Erin is proof that when women collaborate instead of compete, we all rise! If you've ever caught yourself feeling jealous of another woman's success or struggled to celebrate wins that aren't your own, this conversation will transform how you show up in the world. Erin breaks down the conditioning that's taught us scarcity thinking, shares tactical ways to become a hype woman, and reveals why the patriarchal system benefits when women fight each other instead of lifting each other up. Plus, she gets real about turning 40, finding her voice, and why she's done caring what people think. Key Takeaways: The hype women blueprint: How to deprogram from seeing other women as competition and start celebrating their wins dailyFrom jealousy to inspiration: The difference between "I want what you have" vs "I don't want you to have what you have"Access over ability: Why women's lack of representation has nothing to do with talent and everything to do with being excluded from the boys' clubMidlife freedom: Why turning 40 unleashed Erin's authentic voice and why not caring what people think is the ultimate superpowerErin says: YNTFO to Hype Women!Erin's new book Hype Women is available for pre-order HERE!Learn more about Jen Marples at https://www.jenmarples.comWant to work with Jen?

Wir setzen unsere "Police Story"-Retrospektive fort mit dem "Police Story 3"-Spinoff "Project S", das hierzulande als "Mega Cop" seinen Weg in die Videotheken fand und in welchem der Michelle Yeoh-Figur aus Teil 3 ganz die Bühne überlassen wurde. Jackie Chan selbst absoviert hingegen nur einen Gastauftritt. In der Beurteilung darüber, ob das Spinoff das Niveau der Hauptteile hält, sind sich Sergej und Martin nicht ganz einig, worüber wiederum Einigkeit besteht, ist die Tatsache, dass sich prima darüber diskutieren lässt.

When a major Hollywood studio released Five Fingers of Death to thrill-seeking Times Square moviegoers on March 21, 1973, only a handful of Black and Asian American audience members knew the difference between an Iron Fist and an Eagle's Claw. That changed overnight as kung fu movies kicked off a craze that would earn millions at the box office, send TV ratings soaring, sell hundreds of thousands of video tapes, influence the birth of hip hop, reshape the style of action we see in movies today, and introduce America to some of the biggest non-white stars to ever hit motion picture screens.This lavishly illustrated book tells the bone-blasting, spine-shattering story of how these films of fury ― spawned in anti-colonial protests on the streets of Hong Kong ― came to America and raised hell for 15 years before greed, infomercials, and racist fearmongering shut them down.You'll meet Japanese judo coaches battling American wrestlers in backwoods MMA bouts at county fairs, black teenagers with razor sharp kung fu skills heading to Hong Kong to star in movies shot super fast so they can make it back to the States in time to start 10th grade, and Puerto Rican karate coaches making their way in this world with nothing but their own two fists.It's about an 11-year-old boy who not only created the first fan edit but somehow turned it into a worldwide moneymaker, CIA agents secretly funding a karate movie, the New York Times fabricating a fear campaign about black "karate gangs" out to kill white people, the history of black martial arts in America ("Why does judo or karate suddenly get so ominous because black men study it?," wondered Malcolm X), the death of Bruce Lee and the onslaught of imitators that followed, and how a fight that started in Japanese internment camps during World War II ended in a ninja movie some 40 years later.It's a battle for recognition and respect that started a long, long time ago and continues today in movies like The Matrix, Kill Bill, and Black Panther and here, for the first time, is the full uncensored story.2025's revised and expanded hardcover edition features new material on superstars like Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh, and Donnie Yen, plus spotlights on unsung performers, movie poster artists, low-rent film distributors, 1980s video companies, and more!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

On episode 290 of The AwardsWatch Podcast, Executive Editor Ryan McQuade is joined by Editor-In-Chief Erik Anderson, Associate Editor Sophia Ciminello, AwardsWatch contributor Mark Johnson, and special guest Kevin Jacobsen, Entertainment Weekly Content Update Editor and host of the And the Runner Up Is podcast, for part two of their Best Actress Tier Rankings. In the second part of the Best Actress tier rankings (listen to Part 1 here), the team return to the scene of the crime from last week to rank the remaining 49 Oscar winning performances, and discuss where they place them in their all-ranking. In trying to place these winners in the correct spot, the team had to come together and decide on whether to place these performances in the S (all-time winner), A, B, C, D, or F tier and explain the ranking. For the first time in the tier ranking episodes, the performances have been randomized, making the show even more unpredictable as to who will be covered from the list of winners on this episode. Also, the team has instituted two rules that include only 15 winners being able to be in the “S tier” and if an actress has multiple wins, only one of their wins can make it into the 15. Some of the winners ranked on this week's episode are Claudette Colbert for It Happened One Night, Nicole Kidman for The Hours, Meryl Streep for Sophie's Choice, Julia Roberts for Erin Brockovich, Jodie Foster for The Silence of the Lambs, Diane Keaton for Annie Hall, Faye Dunaway for Network, Michelle Yeoh for Everything Everywhere All at Once, our most recent winner Mikey Madison, Anora, and many more. By the end of the episode, some of the wildest takes of the episode start coming out, so you will want to listen all the way to the end to hear them; it's lot of fun. You can listen to The AwardsWatch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 4h18m. We will be back in next week reviews of Materialists and The Phoenician Scheme. Till then, let's get into it.

Corey Danna & Fred Andersson return and this time we explore the iconic moments from the visual comedy, bank takeovers & vehicle filled escapes of Jackie Chan's Police Story/Supercop franchise.   Are physical comedian led movies literally the only time where both audiences & critics don't care about the loose plotting and everyone has a good time?   Why is Supercop 2 with Michelle Yeoh returning actually pretty underrated?   Is it Part 1 or 3's almost-fatal finales that stay in audience's minds the most?   For a quick geek-out session on this topic, you've come to the right place!             MAIN LINKS:  LinkTree: https://linktr.ee/JURSPodcast Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/JackedUpReviewShow/ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2452329545040913 Twitter: https://twitter.com/JackedUpReview  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jacked_up_podcast/        SHOW LINKS: YouTube: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCIyMawFPgvOpOUhKcQo4eQQ   iHeartRadio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-the-jacked-up-review-show-59422651/   Podbean: https://jackedupreviewshow.podbean.com   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7Eg8w0DNympD6SQXSj1X3M   Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jacked-up-review-show-podcast/id1494236218   RadioPublic: https://radiopublic.com/the-jacked-up-review-show-We4VjE   Overcast: https://overcast.fm/itunes1494236218/the-jacked-up-review-show-podcast   Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy9hNDYyOTdjL3BvZGNhc3QvcnNz   Anchor:  https://anchor.fm/s/a46297c/podcast/rss   PocketCasts: https://pca.st/0ncd5qp4   CastBox:  https://castbox.fm/channel/The-Jacked-Up-Review-Show-Podcast-id2591222   Discord:  https://discord.com/channels/796154005914779678/796154006358851586         #MovieReview #FilmTwitter #PodFamily #PodcastersOfInstagram #Movies #Film #Cinema #Music #Reviews #Retrospect #Podcasts #MutantFam #MutantFamily #actionmystery #bmovies #scifihorror #truecrime #historydramas #warmovies #podcastcollabs #hottakes #edgy #cultmovies #nsfw #HorrorFam #badass

If you've been waiting for the right moment to step into what's next—you just found it.Host Natalie Benamou is joined by Erin Gallagher, founder of Ella and the Hype Women Movement, who shares why Thrive in 2025 Women's Conference is unlike any event. Erin isn't just delivering the keynote—she's staying, engaging, and co-creating an immersive experience that's built by and for women.Together, Natalie and Erin go deep into what it means to challenge long-standing norms, why women are done shrinking, and how we can build a new leadership economy rooted in collaboration—not competition.Erin's viral post about Jamie Lee Curtis cheering for Michelle Yeoh sparked a global conversation—and led to a movement, a podcast, and now a highly anticipated book. In this episode, she shares how that moment changed everything, and why now is the time for women to take up space, own their stories, and stop waiting for permission. Erin opens up about her journey from behind-the-scenes PR to becoming a visible leader—and how she almost said no to her own book deal (twice).

We're off to see the 2024 movie adaptation of Act One of the 2003 hit Broadway musical based on the 1995 bestselling book by Gregory Maguire, based on the 1939 film, based on the 1900 novel by L. Frank Baum. Telling the origin story of the witches of Oz, this Jon M. Chu-directed film saw Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande step into the roles made famous on stage by Idina Menzel and Kristen Chenoweth. Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Peter Dinklage, and Jeff Goldblum round out the cast of one of the biggest films of the past year. It brought in over $750 million worldwide, making it the highest-grossing Oz film, the highest-grossing musical film adaptation, and the fifth-highest-grossing film of 2024. It scored ten Oscar noms, including Best Picture, and won Best Costume Design and Best Production Design. A sequel, adapting Act Two of the show, is scheduled for release later this year. But does this musical prequel defy gravity, or does it hit a few flat notes?

In 2022, Michelle Yeoh became the first Asian actress to win the Academy Award for Best Actress. But she wasn't the first actress of Asian origin to be nominated. In 1935, Merle Oberon was nominated for Best Actress for the role of Kitty Vane in The Dark Angel, only her second film in the U.S. film industry. But no one knew Oberon was Asian. Her public biography said she was born to white parents in Tasmania, eventually moving to India and, from there, to the UK. But Merle Oberon, in truth, was of Anglo-Indian origin, born in Bombay. She'd hidden her heritage to get around U.S. censorship and immigration laws—a secret she took to her grave, even if many in the industry suspected the truth. Mayukh Sen tackles Oberon's life in Love, Queenie: Merle Oberon, Hollywood's First South Asian Star (W.W. Norton: 2025).

In this mind-bending episode of Badlands Story Hour, Burning Bright and Chris Paul dive deep into the Oscar-winning multiverse epic Everything Everywhere All at Once, unpacking its frenetic chaos, cultural subtext, and the profoundly human themes buried beneath its absurdist surface. Despite initial skepticism, mocking what they assumed to be another Hollywood morality lecture wrapped in wokewash, the hosts find themselves surprised by the film's emotional core and moralist message. They dissect the film's commentary on nihilism, family breakdown, systemic dysfunction, and the desperate search for meaning in a collapsing world. Michelle Yeoh's Evelyn is a tragic heroine who finds redemption not through superhero powers but through compassion, presence, and the quiet strength of choosing love over despair. Chris and Burning explore how Evelyn's immigrant experience and generational trauma mirror cultural clashes between East and West, modernity and tradition, duty and individuality. The discussion turns philosophical and personal, with reflections on multiverse theory, the illusion of infinite choice, and the spiritual consequences of postmodern storytelling. From Waymond's underestimated wisdom to Joy's doomer spiral, the film becomes a lens through which the hosts examine relationships, regret, and the modern obsession with alternate paths and lost potential. With humor, insight, and just enough sarcasm, Story Hour transforms what could have been a Hollywood write-off into a meaningful meditation on what it means to truly matter. The verdict? “The universe may be a bagel, but there's still something worth fighting for in the center.” Next week's pick: The Apprentice, a film about Trump's early years with Roy Cohn. Tune in for a very different kind of multiverse.

"I'm not afraid. It's the Wizard who should be afraid of me." We watched "Wicked" with our good Judy, Mitchell Anderson, and it was just as good as the first time we watched it! We knew we wanted to review this episode here on our show, and we thought there's no time like the present. Here we are, about halfway between the release of "Wicked" and her upcoming sequel, "Wicked: For Good," so we thought we'd take a look at what makes this movie work so darn well. Obviously, the casting of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande is on point, but the supporting cast - Jonathan Bailey, Michelle Yeoh, Bowen Yang, and company - are all so wonderful, especially under the direction of Jon M. Chu. Allowing so many of them to ad-lib and keeping those gems in the final cut is a genius stroke! We promise to keep the singing to a minimum, but whether we keep that promise is to be seen. Yes, we have some hot takes on the movie itself, but we talk about what's to come in "For Good,” our predictions on how that half of the story will be presented, as well as a couple of fun facts we dug up in our research. We may not be true theater gays at heart, but needless to say, we're "Wicked" gays now, and we will be acting as such. Alert your local all-night diner - we're coming in at 11 p.m. and causing an absolute scene like it's opening night of our high school musical!

She was like a combination of Annie Oakley and Michelle Yeoh at a time when silent movie stars were trying to outdo each other in their death-defying stunts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Wow! The first new Star Trek movie in eight years! What's that you say? Oh. TV movie? And it's less a "movie" and more a "we were going to develop a new series and that fell through so we made it a one-off, 90 minute thing?" Huh. Well, Star Trek: Section 31 may not be a "movie" in the same way we've used that word for most of its existence, but it was still a good excuse to hang out with our friends Adam and Ben from Max Fun's terrific Trek shows Greatest Gen and Greatest Trek, so every cosmic cloud has a silver lining, we guess.Wikipedia page for Star Trek: Section 31Recommended in this episode:Dan: Bluebeard's Eighth Wife (1938)Stu: Troop Beverly Hills (1989)Elliott: Chilly Scenes of Winter (1979)Adam: Babylon (2022)Ben: Down With Love (2003)Go to Squarespace.com for a free trial, and when you're ready to launch, go to www.squarespace.com/FLOP to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain.Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster with Rocket Money.

When Emperor Georgiou's backstory doesn't make her any more redeemable, getting pulled into a Section 31 mission gives her another chance to do the right thing. But when their assignment reveals a relic from her own destructive past, gruesomely killing her childhood boyfriend doesn't exactly earn her atonement.
