The next sequel we'll be discussing is Transylmania. For it, I chatted with actress Musetta Vander, whose other sequels we've already covered — Oblivion 2 and Mortal Kombat: Annihilation.Musetta shared her unique journey from South Africa to Hollywood, which began with her early work as a dancer in music videos, including one for Tina Turner. From there, she went on to appear in Murder, She Wrote, and continued booking multiple projects every year.She had some great stories about growing up in South Africa, filming Oblivion, working on Wild Wild West, meeting Mike Ditka, and so much more.
Chuck Todd begins by reacting to the senate passing Trump's signature piece of legislation: “The Big Beautiful Bill.” He reviews the excuses and rationales given by the senators who had expressed issues with the bill but still voted for it, and explains why the fear of Donald Trump's wrath is enough to get lawmakers to fall in line and explains why the bill's passage is emblematic of the broken state of Congress.Then, Chuck is joined by political scientist and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer to dissect the most pressing geopolitical challenges facing the world today. The discussion begins with analysis of recent Iranian strikes and the Middle East conflict, exploring whether Iran has been exposed as a "paper tiger" and examining the complex dynamics between Trump, Netanyahu, and regional powers like Saudi Arabia. Bremmer offers insights into Iran's domestic vulnerabilities—noting the regime's mere 20% public support—while assessing the likelihood of nuclear developments and potential exit strategies from current conflicts.The conversation expands to cover Trump's relationship with NATO allies, the slowly deteriorating situation in Ukraine, and Putin's potential next moves, including the concerning possibility of nuclear escalation if his regime faces existential threats. Bremmer and Todd also tackle the rise of populist movements globally, the erosion of democratic guardrails in America, and the fundamental shift toward reactionary politics that may define a generation. Throughout, Bremmer provides his characteristic blend of realpolitik analysis and concern for democratic institutions, culminating in a sobering assessment of how America's political system now rewards winners over leaders and creates conditions where "socialists can't beat capitalists, but they can beat kleptocrats."Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment regarding the potential for erosion of Trump's support, election denialism and a fun alternate history theory where legendary Bears coach Mike Ditka beat Barack Obama for state office in Illinois.Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction00:15 90 days from Liberation Day and “90 deals in 90 days”, there are two deals01:30 Trump will back off on tariffs again to avoid economic damage02:30 The Big Beautiful Bill passes the Senate04:15 Josh Hawley votes for bill despite promises not to cut health care06:00 Lisa Murkowski cites tax break expiration for her yes vote08:15 Murkowski has always been Alaska first over America first09:30 Republicans fall in line out of fear of Trump11:00 Congress is broken 13:00 Bipartisanship is dead in the 21st century14:30 Both parties have weaponized partisanship16:15 How do we fix the broken congress?17:30 The public needs to understand WHY congress is broken19:00 Independents could force congress to function better21:00 Bill was rushed due to Trump's impatience22:30 We're in the kleptocracy stage, headed toward authoritarianism24:00 Dysfunction in congress has created a more powerful presidency26:00 Ian Bremmer joins the Chuck ToddCast! 28:00 Media cycle has already moved on from the Iran strike 29:15 The strike wasn't meant to be a war 30:15 Steve Bannon's theory that we're on the brink of WW3 31:45 Trump wanted a negotiated settlement with Iran 33:00 Netanyahu was always going to force the US's hand 34:30 Trump is capable of telling Bibi "no" 36:15 Would Trump support a two state solution? 38:30 Iran has no friends on the global stage willing to support them 40:15 After investigators access Gaza, Israel will lose support 41:45 Saudis will demand a two state solution 43:15 Did we expose Iran as a "paper tiger"? 45:30 The Iranian regime only has 20% support from the public 46:30 Iran's strong enough to put down an uprising 47:30 The U.S. won't put boots on the ground in Iran 49:00 What is Iran's exit strategy from this conflict? 52:00 Iran is likely 3 years away from a bomb 53:15 Iran may be a theocracy, but doesn't act irrationally 54:45 The state of Iraq's leadership? 56:15 Is there global investment in Iraq? 57:15 Status of Trump + NATO? 59:30 Europe underinvested in defense for decades 1:01:15 Pushing Europe to spend more on defense is one of Trump's best achievements 1:02:00 Status of Russia/Ukraine war? 1:03:00 Ukraine is losing slowly 1:04:15 Chances Putin would attack one of the Baltic states? 1:06:15 Putin could use a nuke if he felt his regime was at risk 1:08:15 The rise of left wing populism 1:10:00 American elections will be free and fair, but public won't think so 1:12:00 Guardrails on the executive branch have been weakened 1:13:15 Are we stuck with reactionary politics for a generation? 1:14:45 Trump didn't attend funeral for assassinated Minnesota lawmakers 1:15:45 The U.S. doesn't create leaders, it creates winners 1:18:30 The lack of bipartisanship creates bad legislation 1:19:45 The Big Beautiful Bill will create more Mamdanis 1:20:45 Socialists can't beat capitalists, but they can beat kleptocrats1:23:30 Thoughts on conversation with Ian Bremmer 1:24:00 Mamdani beat Cuomo by double digits in final tally 1:25:30 There will be a fight for the soul of the Democratic party 1:26:15 Ask Chuck 1:26:30 Could Trump's support erode like Marion Barry's? 1:30:30 Election denialism now coming from both sides regularly? 1:36:30 How different would things look if Mike Ditka had beat Obama in Illinois?

In this raw and revealing conversation, Super Bowl-winning quarterback Jim McMahon joins Tim and Troy Green to share the unfiltered truth about his wild path to NFL stardom. From his troubled youth and strict upbringing to setting NCAA records and clashing with authority at BYU, McMahon opens up about what shaped him into one of football's most unforgettable personalities. He recounts the infamous media smear before the Super Bowl that led to death threats, the real reason he always wore sunglasses, and why he challenged the legendary Mike Ditka at every turn. Jim also reflects on the miracle that saved his eyesight as a kid, the near-death injury that almost ended his career, and his deep belief that a higher power has always been looking out for him. A candid look at pain, pride, redemption, and resilience—this is Jim McMahon like you've never heard him before.

Jim Rutledge and Molly Brown roll into the After Dark hour with some more of the all-time pettiest moments in the history of the Packers vs Bears rivalry. Rodgers owns the Bears, but does letting "The Fridge" score a touchdown take the all-time cake?

Throwing Stones includes takes on if QBs have to be at least the 2nd best player in their own draft class to be a success, Justin Herbert being buried on non-primetime slots, and a star actor who got "pummeled" courtside at the Knicks game! Jim and Molly wrap up reminding Primetime to just "lighten up Francis"!
If you have been a Saints fan for longer than a quarter-century, then you remember the miserable days of former coach Mike Ditka and his final season of 1999 when the Black and Gold had guys like the Billy Joes running the offense, as they struggled to score 14 to 17 points per game. It's starting to feel like that again under Coach Dennis Allen. Has the team given up on him? Can the veterans pull together and make something out of nothing? Will Derek Carr's return mean anything at this point? As the team hits the midway point of the season, there are way more questions than answers, although we do our best on “Mano E Monday” in asking the fans what they think on the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 301) presented by Evangeline Securities. Also, in our “Mondays with Gabe Henderson” segment, it wasn;t much better for LSU on Saturday.

Actress Paul Newsome joins Rich in-studio to discuss the series finale of CBS' ‘CSI: Vegas,' playing Henry Winkler's love interest on HBO's ‘Barry,' and reveals why she abandoned the Chicago Bears shortly after they won the Super Bowl with Mike Ditka, and more. In ‘Overreaction Monday' Rich weighs in on the Chiefs, Ravens, Lions, Patriots, Cardinals, Knicks, Nuggets and PGA Championship.

Danny Mac is joined by Bears Super Bowl-winning QB Jim McMahon. The two reminisce on McMahon's days in Chicago, his relationship with Mike Ditka, remembering the late Bob Avellini, & the typical Chicago run-heavy playstyle. McMahon also touches on the importance of a strong offensive line for rookie QB Caleb Williams.
John & Josh teach young Nick about Mike Ditka's worst moment when he coached the Saints.
There's no question the Atlanta Falcons have a major upgrade at quarterback with the addition in free agency of Kirk Cousins. And with Bijan Robinson's rookie season in his rearview mirror, does that make this team the favorite over the New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC South with new coach Raheem Morris? Jim Derry gets into that on Wednesday's Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 227) brought to you by Evangeline Securities with Bet.NOLA.com's Gabe Henderson, and Jim also talks in his monologue about the possibility of the New Orleans Pelicans having to face the Sacramento Kings in the do-or-die Play-In game Friday without Zion Williamson, who was hurt in Tuesday's loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Spencer the Guru is here with the weekly Fantasy Roundup to talk about waiver-wire pitchers and hitters in MLB and the top potential running backs in this upcoming NFL Draft. Jim wraps up the show with the 'Extra Point,' looking back a quarter-century to when Mike Ditka and the Saints traded their entire allotment of picks in the 1999 draft – and a first and third in 2000 – to move up eight spots and draft Heisman Trophy winning running back Ricky Williams.
Matt Waldman shares a few points about each of the 22 TE prospects in the 2024 NFL Draft class that he scouted for the 2024 Rookie Scouting Portfolio. Note: If you have difficulty playing the podcast, DOWNLOAD IT or listen via YouTube. (The YouTube version will be out later on Saturday) Topics A review of the top-15 rookie performances at the position and what it may mean for the position moving forward. If Sam LaPorta walked up to Mike Ditka's house last year will Brock Bowers kick down the door? What part of Cade Stover's game belies his experience at the position? Where does Theo Johnson's athletic ability have difficulty showing up on the field? Matt's fave tight end to watch this year who he can get past has earned little buzz during his career but Michael Mayer earned three years' worth. The undersized tight end with some of the best hands in this class. The tight end the NFL will value higher than fantasy GMs. The tight end archetype that the NFL overdrafts annually and the one from his class who could be the exception to the rule. Check out this podcast for a lot more. It's just a small taste of what you get every year with the Rookie Scouting Portfolio pre-draft/post-draft guide. See below. And of course, if you want to know about the rookies from this draft class, you will find the most in-depth analysis of offensive skill players available (QB, RB, WR, and TE), with the 2024 Rookie Scouting Portfolio for $21.95.

If winter's got you down and you're in need of some extra pizzazz to get you through the day, we've got just the medicine: our classic episode on the “The Super Bowl Shuffle.” Once you add this chart-topping tune to your playlist, we guarantee you'll be bopping all the way to your weekly Fred Silverman fan club meeting (we'll see you there). Enjoy!~~~There hasn't been anything quite like “The Super Bowl Shuffle”… And for good reason. Professional athletes can be boastful from time to time, but in 1985, it was taken to a whole new level! All lead by Bears Wide Receiver, Willie Gault. The Chicago Bears would produce a single (the first of its kind on Audio Cassette), film a music video (Second in sales to “Thriller”), and win a Super Bowl (beating those darn Patriots!) all in the course of an NFL season. “The Super Bowl Shuffle” was a sensation! Most of the team wanted in, but there were some that had their doubts. But not Mike Ditka! Just don't ask him to be involved… This week Ray teaches Rob about the game of football, why they called William Perry “The Refrigerator”, what a touchdown is, how Mike Ditka did his own music video (of which he has no recollection), and why the Average Joe is now forever to be referred to as a “Grabowski”.DAAAAA BEARS!If you like what we're doing, we'd love if you could spread the word by sharing the episode with a friend or leaving us a rating or review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts. You can also support us on Patreon, or you can subscribe to our bonus content on Apple Podcasts. And we'd love to find even more listeners, so if you have time, [please And if you have any other thoughts or feedback you'd like to share with us, we'd love to hear from you - feel free to email us or send us a message on social media.

This week, we follow the story of a man, who seemed to be tapped by the heavens to have a great life. A member of the Super Bowl champion 1985 Chicago Bears defense, and "Super Bowl Shuffle" soloist, who quickly lost his career, and had his life unravel, and crash. He was arrested over 20 times.

The Chicago Audible - Chicago Bears Podcast and Postgame Show
Famed Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight died on Wednesday, a complicated figure with a complicated legacy and — for better or worse — a throwback to different teams. Nicknamed “The General,” Knight had a bullying style that produced results. In a lot of ways, he wasn't much different than Bears coach Mike Ditka, the only man to lead the Bears to a Super Bowl title. Join Kevin Kaduk, Mark Carman and Luke Stuckmeyer as they wonder whether the recent string of Bears “nice guy” coaches like Matt Eberflus can also be traced to their four decade-long run of ineptitude.

Adolis Garcia was injured in last night's game but he has to get back in the lineup. It's the World Series after all. Max Scherzer also hurt his back and left after 3 innings. Boomer called Corey Seager a ‘winning ballplayer'. Gio is glad Scherzer isn't our problem anymore. There's a Dominican baseball series going on at Citi-Field in November. Boomer said Brian Daboll lost weight but Gio isn't buying it. Jerry is here for an update and starts with the Lions beating the Raiders last night. Mike McDaniel can't believe people are dressing as him for Halloween. Dabo Swinney went at it with a radio caller on his coach's show. Jerry played some football coaching rants from Herm Edwards, Mike Ditka, Dennis Green, Jim Mora, Mike Singletary, and the great Mike Gundy rant. The Texas Rangers beat the Diamondbacks to go up 2-1 in the World Series. The NY Rangers won their fifth straight game to complete the road sweep. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about former NHL player Adam Johnson getting slashed across the neck in a game and it ended up in his death. There is a police investigation to see if there was intent on the part of the player that delivered the blow, Matt Petgrave.
Hour 1 It's Halloween and the NFL trade deadline day. The Giants traded Leonard Williams to the Seahawks and they will probably be fielding more calls today. Saquon Barkley is still rumored to be available for a trade. Gio thinks John Mara does not want to get rid of him. The Bills could be a great landing spot for Saquon as the Bills have a lot of draft picks. If the Giants continue to lose, they are going to have an option to pick a quarterback in the draft. Jerry is here for his first update and starts with the Lions having no problem with the Raiders last night. Jimmy Garoppolo had a terrible night. Davante Adams is frustrated as he had just one catch last night. Brian Daboll talked about Daniel Jones now starting against the Raiders. Rob Saleh talked about playing in the rain Sunday. Boomer said there is something going on with the turf at MetLife. Max Scherzer left in the third inning with back tightness. Aaron Judge won the Roberto Clemente Award. Cam Thomas had a good night as the Nets won their first game of the season. James Harden was traded to the Clippers. The Rangers swept their roadtrip winning all 5 games. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Kayvon Thibodeaux's performance against the Jets Sunday. The Giants cannot shut down Saquon Barkley trade talks. Teams like the Bills and Ravens may give up a decent draft pick for him. Hour 2 Gio has full size candy bars for all the trick or treaters. Last year he had beers for the adults but he's not sure if he should do that again. We also talked about parents who bring alcohol to their kids' sporting events or dance recitals. We took calls from people who did just that. Jerry returns for an update but first we talked about 13 backup quarterbacks taking a snap last week. Gio wants the Vikings to go get Mike White. The Lions beat the Raiders and Davante Adams was very frustrated with Jimmy Garoppolo overthrowing him. Brian Daboll was asked why he didn't let Tommy DeVito throw the ball. Mike Francesa was furious that DeVito wasn't allowed to throw. Two radio hosts in Cleveland were yelling at each other over Kevin Stefanski. In the final segment of the hour, Gio talked about his daughter not paying attention during her soccer games. A caller also thinks Brian Daboll is not Head Coaching material. Hour 3 Adolis Garcia was injured in last night's game but he has to get back in the lineup. It's the World Series after all. Max Scherzer also hurt his back and left after 3 innings. Boomer called Corey Seager a ‘winning ballplayer'. Gio is glad Scherzer isn't our problem anymore. There's a Dominican baseball series going on at Citi-Field in November. Boomer said Brian Daboll lost weight but Gio isn't buying it. Jerry is here for an update and starts with the Lions beating the Raiders last night. Mike McDaniel can't believe people are dressing as him for Halloween. Dabo Swinney went at it with a radio caller on his coach's show. Jerry played some football coaching rants from Herm Edwards, Mike Ditka, Dennis Green, Jim Mora, Mike Singletary, and the great Mike Gundy rant. The Texas Rangers beat the Diamondbacks to go up 2-1 in the World Series. The NY Rangers won their fifth straight game to complete the road sweep. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about former NHL player Adam Johnson getting slashed across the neck in a game and it ended up in his death. There is a police investigation to see if there was intent on the part of the player that delivered the blow, Matt Petgrave. Hour 4 Gio is excited for Halloween today and will be playing Halloween songs for the trick or treaters. There is a story out there that ex-NBA player Joe Smith's wife has an Only Fans page that he's not aware of. Gio thinks it was staged as a way to promote her page. Gio talked about ASMR videos of people just making noises by crumpling paper. Gio watched two episodes of Naked Attraction. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Lions beating the Raiders last night. Davante Adams only had 1 catch for 11 yards and he has no words to express what's going on. Gio thinks today is going to be a dud of a trade deadline in the NFL. The Giants go on a 3-game road trip beginning this week in Vegas. The Texas Rangers beat the Diamondbacks and take a 2-1 series lead. Aaron Judge won the Roberto Clemente Award. The Moment of The Day involves parents drinking at their children's sporting events and dance recitals. In the final segment of the show, we talked about today's NFL trade deadline. There has been talking of moving it back in the future to the end of November so teams know where they stand. Doing it now makes it a tough decision for teams to make. We talked about positions particular teams will be looking to add.
