Podcast appearances and mentions of Molly Gordon

[Editor's Note: The following contains spoilers for Thunderbolts*.]One of the very best parts of having a returning guest on Collider Ladies Night? Realizing how much they've accomplished during such a short period of time. Geraldine Viswanathan made her first Ladies Night appearance in 2020 for The Broken Hearts Gallery and since has completed a four-season run on Miracle Workers, starred opposite Zach Galifianakis, Elizabeth Banks and Sarah Snook in The Beanie Bubble, headlined Drive-Away Dolls with Margaret Qualley, made Oh, Hi! with Molly Gordon which secured distribution out of Sundance 2025, and now she's part of one of the biggest film franchises of all time, the Marvel Cinematic Universe.Viswanathan makes her first MCU appearance as Mel in Thunderbolts*. She's Valentina Allegra de Fontaine's (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) extremely attentive and diligent assistant. Initially, she seems quite loyal too, but when Bucky (Sebastian Stan) suggests Mel secretly slip him information on Val in hopes of having her impeached, eventually, Mel concedes. While that choice may suggest Mel's willingness to double-cross her boss, ultimately, she changes course again, pushing the button that saves Val's life from the Sentry (Lewis Pullman).So where does Mel stand? Does she skew more villain than hero? Does she still admire Valentina? That's exactly what I dug into with Viswanathan during her second Collider Ladies Night interview. Hosted on Acast.

On this episode of Paid in Puke, we're partying with Emma Seligman's (Bottoms) 2021 anxiety-ridden comedy, Shiva Baby, starring Rachel Sennott, Molly Gordon, Dianna Agron, and Polly Draper. It tells the story of Danielle, a young art student who has an identity crisis at a Shiva, when she is forced to interact with her parents, her ex, her sugar daddy, and his beautiful wife, plus everyone who has known her since she was a baby. This movie is an poignant as it is hilarious. We talk about awkward interactions with relatives, sugaring, top quality food-acting, and the difficulties of being an impending college graduate.

Molly Gordon makes everything better. She was a stand-out among stand-outs in films like “Good Boys,” “Booksmart,” and “Shiva Baby.” Then she showed her talents on the other side of the camera, co-writing/directing the hilarious indie hit “Theater Camp.” Now she plays Claire on the beloved series “The Bear,” which is about to drop its third season. On this episode she talks about why she loves improv, how her parents unintentionally formed her comedy sensibilities, getting “buzzed” from in-person auditions, “locking in” with Jeremy Allen White, why she's always aspiring to a child-like lack of self consciousness, and much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast from  Filmmaker Magazine. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.  Follow Back To One on Instagram (Photo by Elias Tahan)

This mockumentary comedy flew under the radar when it was released last year. But our Yosra's excited to make a song and dance about Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman's big-hearted tale of a musical theatre camp, struggling to save itself after its beloved founder falls into a coma. It's well charted that we love a mockumentary, but will there be enough gags for Hannah? Or too much singing for Mick? You know what to do. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, we revisit one of our favorite episodes of 2023! The panel begins by examining Barbie, Greta Gerwig's hot pink, record-breaking movie about the iconic Mattel doll. Then, the trio dives into Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, which chronicles the life of the “Father of the Atomic Bomb,” and explores whether the film achieves its aims. Finally, they are joined by Slate's Chris Molanphy to discuss the controversy behind country singer Jason Aldean's latest song, “Try That In A Small Town.” In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel is once again joined by Chris Molanphy to discuss all things Summer Strut. With the annual show just weeks away, the four pull back the curtain to detail their processes, weird observations, and more. Email us at culturefest@slate.com. Endorsements: Dana: In line with her theme of the week, “Yay movies and go, go, go to the theater,” Dana highly recommends Theater Camp, a delightful film by Ben Platt and Molly Gordon. Julia: Yotam Ottolenghi's recipe for zucchini pasta with crispy capers and pistachios isn't the sort of thing Julia would normally endorse (for one, it's extremely laborious and you will need to fry individual basil leaves), but it's vegan, a showstopper, and completely worth it. Stephen: In honor of the late singer, Stephen recommends two Tony Bennett albums: “The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Album” (1975) and “Tony Bennett at Carnegie Hall” (1962). Outro music: “Last Sunday” by OTE. Podcast production by Cameron Drews. Production assistance by Kat Hong. If you enjoy this show, please consider signing up for Slate Plus.

This week, we watched the 2023 comedy 'Theater Camp,' starring Ben Platt, Molly Gordon, and Jimmy Tatro. To help us determine just how accurate this movie was, we were joined by Mike's cousin Megan, who, as an actress herself, was more than familiar with a few tropes in this movie. So, listen in today to hear us break down 'Theater Camp' and hear our thoughts on a movie we might have normally scrolled past.Reach out to us at screenedinpod@gmail.com!Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, & YouTube!

Hi friends!  To start off this pop culture ep, we chat about the Zillennial Cult Comedy Cinematic Universe (as coined by The Ringer). Featuring the likes of Rachel Sennott, Ayo Edebri and Molly Gordon, we ask why the 27-year-olds feel like our friends and the new era of storytelling.  For the first time we chat about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. A few weeks after they were spotted at an NFL game together, we discuss the media's reaction to the news and the theory that Taylor attending the Jets game was an SEO play.  Next, a piece by Sienna Ludbey of Hello Sisi for Fashion Journal went semi-viral across Australian media. “Snail girl era”: Why I'm slowing down and choosing to be happy rather than busy, charts the work/life balance movement that chooses a slow life over the previous girl boss eras we've seen. We discuss our own thoughts on this trend and whether it's a privileged take.  Finally, writer Laura Pitcher summed up our thoughts from a few weeks back on the curated celeb medical photo dumps. In the piece, titled Full Body Scance, Health "Journeys" and The Psychology Of The Medical Photo Dump for Nylon, Laura discusses why the doctor's office has become a hub for content creation.  Jas & Mags xo  Katie Zhou created our fab cover art and India Raine is our wonderful editor and composer of our jingle.

Dena and Catalina start off this week chatting about a Yom Kippur song (@broadwaywiz) by Ben Platt and Molly Gordon. Then, they take a deep dive into a certain podcast host's incident in Central Park. Catalina shares a reflection by @celebritymemoirbookclub on her algorithm and Dena discusses Jersey Shore drama via @alexisebawden and of course they have to bring up Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Maggie Rogers (@maggierogers) stitched the video about what it's like to be a freshman at NYU and there is a blue collar guy audio trend going around the platform, recapped by @therealkatherine. Dena highlights content creator @vitakari and Catalina shares some of the latest Shakira and Piqué gossip, featuring a video by @devotedly.yours. There's a lot to learn on TikTok this week including where Dutch people apparently keep calendars (@faeiryne) and which carry-on bags actually fit airline standards (@rileejsmith). Next up the ladies discuss the idea of first and second cities including videos by @katherout and @avocado.dan. They close with @a_twink_and_a_redhead's impressions of how people wake up to different alarms.   Check out all the videos we mention and more on our blog (2old4tiktok.com), Instagram (@2old4tiktokpod), and TikTok (@2old4tiktok_podcast).

On our latest weekly roundup, we celebrated some decluttering triumphs (even as we know this is a job that never ends).What we're watching: On Only Murders in the Building, "CoBro" did bring us some more details that we should probably use to figure out what happened to Ben. But we were more excited by the return of some old favorites (Theo!

Welcome to episode 14 of "Then, A Moment"! A podcast where two life-long storytellers talk about stories! On today's episode, Pavi & Colin take a deep dive into the 2023 film ‘Theater Camp' while drawing comparisons with 2003's ‘Camp.' Both movies show the lives of campers and counselors at summer theater camps and the typical challenges, relationships, and triumphs that take place there. ‘Theater Camp' stars Ben Platt, Molly Gordon, and Noah Galvin as they try to keep an upstate New York camp afloat during troubling times and was released in limited theaters in July 2023. Your Hosts: Pavi Proczko is an audiobook narrator (Defiance of the Fall, Edens Gate), Writer (Brugum's Labyrinth, The Nightly), Actor and Singer (Chicago Shakespeare theater, Paramount Theater, Chicago Fire), and Game Master (D&D). Colin Funk is a Childhood Development Expert (Erikson Institute), Teacher (Stages Chicago), Actor and Singer (Porchlight Music Theater, Metropolis Theater), and Crafter (knitting, cross stick, Embroidery, watercolors). “With our unique lenses, we talk about a specific piece of storytelling each episode: What works? What doesn't? And the magic moments of story!” Pavi & Colin are married and live in Chicago. ❤️ Be sure to SUBSCRIBE and FOLLOW us for more! @Thenamomentpod

A “private creator” no more. After spending a good deal of time developing ideas and keeping them to herself, Molly Gordon makes her feature film writing, directing, and producing debut on Theater Camp, an achievement that will hopefully pave the way to continued work behind the lens with original ideas.Gordon shares her writing and producing credit on the film with longtime friends and collaborators Ben Platt, Noah Galvin, and Nick Lieberman, and also co-directs alongside Lieberman. Inspired by their short film of the same name, the feature version of Theater Camp focuses on a group of teachers deeply dedicated to their work at AdirondACTS, a theater camp in upstate New York. Right in the midst of some financial trouble, the camp's founder (Amy Sedaris) falls into a coma and her “clueless tech-bro” son, Jimmy Tatro's Troy, is put in charge. The camp's only hope is for the teachers to help Troy understand what they love so much about camp and theater in general, but while evolving AdirondACTS traditions to encourage even more to share that passion.In celebration of Theater Camp's theatrical release, Gordon joined me for a Collider Ladies Night interview to retrace her steps from her earliest inspirations to hitting the point where she's confident in being unapologetically herself when tackling a project.[NOTE: This interview was recorded on July 11, 2023.] Hosted on Acast.

Josh is joined by The Rewind's Theater Correspondent, Maya, to talk about "Theater Camp"! They discuss Maya's experiences growing up going to the camp that inspired the movie, the little details the movie got right about theater culture, the quality of the performances put on by the camp within the movie, if the movie is universal enough in its humor non-theater diehards to have a fun time, the performances from the cast that included Molly Gordon, Ben Platt, Noah Galvin, Jimmy Tatro and much more!

Erin and Esther went to see Theater Camp together and spoiler alert, everything is adorable, especially Molly Gordon and Ben Platt. This week was all about unpacking the film's cinematic influences while reminiscing about our own camp/theater camp experiences at Camp Tamarack and Camp Ramah in the Berkshires. Even though the bagels attended camp at different times and places, their life lessons were similar. Lessons include how any musical number can be translated into Hebrew, and that there are no small roles, only small child actors.  Have a favorite camp movie? We do, but advise you not to google “popular camp movies” or you might find yourself in the middle of WW2. As the WGA strike continues well past 100 days, we give a shout-out to Hannah Einbinder's Jewish activist presence, good Mandy Patinkin vibes and Marnina Schon's Jewy comments on protesting. Later, Jewish erasure in Oppenheimer takes on a new angle, and, as two unrelated movies come out the same day, we have to ask ourselves: is You Are So Not Invited to Golda's Bat Mitzvah the new Barbenheimer?

It's still summer, so Jon is going back to camp with friend of the pod Scott. The two go to AdirondACTS to check in on Noah Galvin, Molly Gordon, and Ben Platt (especially his reaction to talk about "nepo babies"), and the very talented children in this movie, and how Joan, Still is going.Writer's Bagel Basket Socials Instagram: @writersbagelbasketHell Is A Musical Socials Instagram: @hellisamusicalWhen Scary Met Stabby Instagram: @whenscarymetstabbyPodcast Socials -Email: butasongpod@gmail.comFacebook: @butasongpodInstagram: @butasongpodTikTok: @butasongpodTwitter: @butasongpodNext episode: Teen Witch (SCT #16)!

There are a number of artists having big years right now but, dare I say, Ayo Edebiri is having one of the best of the bunch. Not only did she just score her first Emmy nomination for her work in Season 1 of The Bear, but she's also exceptional in the recently released second season of the hit series and has three stellar films coming out back to back to back — Theater Camp, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem, and Bottoms.Hopefully you've seen Molly Gordon's episode of Collider Ladies Night and Noah Galvin's episode of Collider Forces in honor of the release of Theater Camp, but just in case you need a refresher, the Searchlight Pictures film focuses on a theater camp struggling to stay afloat after its founder falls into a coma. Edebiri steps in as Janet, a new teacher at camp working amidst a group of AdirondACTS diehards who've spent their summers there for years. The film delivers big laughs as it pokes fun at camp clichés, but it also rocks a powerful beating heart that celebrates what a special experience it can be, especially when that love is shared with newcomers.On August 25th, brace yourself for Bottoms. It's a coming-of-age comedy that doesn't hold back in the least, delivering consistent laughs and shocking story beats via an irresistible ensemble, a combination that not only sparks the itch for repeat viewings but could ultimately turn the film into a raunchy high school comedy classic. Edebiri stars opposite longtime friend and collaborator Rachel Sennott as Josie and PJ, two unpopular high school students eager to hook up with cheerleaders. How do they go about doing that? By starting a female fight club, and it actually works.And finally, we have Edebiri's new movie hitting theaters nationwide this weekend, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem in which she takes over the iconic role of April. Edebiri's version of the character has had enough of being dubbed “puke girl.” She wants her peers at Eastman High to respect her, and she might have found the perfect way to make that happen — by teaming up with the Ninja Turtles. Turns out, the Turtles also just want to fit in. If the Turtles can save the city by stopping Superfly and April can break the story, they might all wind up being accepted and respected.Clearly Edebiri's career is skyrocketing at the moment, but it took some time and legwork to get there, and she took a moment to recap some of that journey on an episode of Collider Ladies Night. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We review the new mockumentary comedy starring Molly Gordon, Ben Platt, and Noah Galvin

This week, the panel begins by examining Barbie, Greta Gerwig's hot pink, record-breaking movie about the iconic Mattel doll. Then, the trio dives into Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer, which chronicles the life of the “Father of the Atomic Bomb,” and explores whether the film achieves its aims. Finally, they are joined by Slate's Chris Molanphy to discuss the controversy behind country singer Jason Aldean's latest song, “Try That In A Small Town.”  In the exclusive Slate Plus segment, the panel is once again joined by Chris Molanphy to discuss all things Summer Strut. With the annual show just weeks away, the four pull back the curtain to detail their processes, weird observations, and more.  Email us at culturefest@slate.com.  Endorsements: Dana: In line with her theme of the week, “Yay movies and go, go, go to the theater,” Dana highly recommends Theater Camp, a delightful film by Ben Platt and Molly Gordon.  Julia: Yotam Ottolenghi's recipe for zucchini pasta with crispy capers and pistachios isn't the sort of thing Julia would normally endorse (for one, it's extremely laborious and you will need to fry individual basil leaves), but it's vegan, a showstopper, and completely worth it.  Stephen: In honor of the late singer, Stephen recommends two Tony Bennett albums: “The Tony Bennett/Bill Evans Album” (1975) and “Tony Bennett at Carnegie Hall” (1962).  Outro music: “Last Sunday” by OTE Podcast production by Cameron Drews.

Like its obvious predecessor WAITING FOR GUFFMAN, the new THEATER CAMP is an improv-heavy mockumentary about a cash-strapped theatrical operation — but in this case at least there's real talent in the mix, thanks to the many gifted child actors populating the AdirondACTS summer program for aspiring young performers. This leaves THEATER CAMP's adult cast, some of them former child actors themselves, free to lean into self-satirizing buffoonery while maintaining a degree of sincere admiration for theatrical weirdos everywhere. We dig into the ups and downs of that tonal balance in THEATER CAMP before comparing it to GUFFMAN's own blend of affection and condescension toward amateur theater, the people who make it, and the audiences who respond to it, as well as how the mockumentary style has evolved in the years separating the two films. And in Your Next Picture Show, we use the presence of Molly Gordon and Ayo Edebiri in THEATER CAMP as an excuse for a mini bonus episode on a recent season of TV that also features both: THE BEAR.  Please share your comments, thoughts, and questions about WAITING FOR GUFFMAN, THEATER CAMP, or anything else in the world of film, by sending an email to comments@nextpictureshow.net, or leaving a short voicemail at (773) 234-9730.

Dave is off this week, so we (Megan and Evan) tackle the show as a duo. Megan opens by reviewing Greta Gerwig's vibrant, sharp, and funny film BARBIE (2:32), in which the iconic doll (Margot Robbie) suffers an existential crisis that causes her to question her influence on the world. Next, we both talk about Molly Gordon and Nick Lieberman's musical mockumentary THEATER CAMP (20:37), which follows the eccentric staff (Gordon, Ben Platt, and Noah Galvin) of a musical theater camp in upstate New York who must team up with the founder's bro-y son (Jimmy Tatro) to save the camp from financial ruin. And in this week's Patreon exclusive audio, we discuss a Patron's choice: the 1982 John Milius sword and sorcery epic CONAN THE BARBARIAN, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and James Earl Jones! 

In the funny new mockumentary Theater Camp, a summer camp for musical theater kids falls on hard times when its founder slips into a coma. The movie stars Ben Platt and Molly Gordon as two codependent instructors staging an original musical, and Jimmy Tatro as the business influencer son of the camp's founder, who reluctantly takes over the camp. Directed by Gordon and Nick Lieberman, the film both skewers and glorifies the love of theater.

"Theater Camp" had its world premiere at the 2023 Sundance Film Festival and is now playing in theaters from Searchlight Pictures. Co-director and co-writer Nick Lieberman was kind enough to spend time with us talking about his work on the film with co-director and writer Molly Gordon, his experience as a theater kid, if there are any deleted scenes, and more.

On this episode, Matt and Grace are joined by theatre influencer Ashley Hufford to discuss the new movie “Theater Camp,” which is hitting movie theaters on Friday, July 14.

Ben Platt really loves live theater—and now, that passion for the stage is on full display in “Theater Camp,” the Christopher Guest-inspired mockumentary Platt co-wrote with longtime friends and collaborators Molly Gordon, Nick Lieberman, and Noah Galvin. Platt also co-stars alongside Gordon, who also co-directed with Lieberman. The film is a real labor of love, with its spotlight shining directly on the importance of spaces like theater camps for any young mind with an interest in the arts. For Platt, working with the movie's extensive cast of kid actors was a lesson all its own. “It just reminds you why you're doing this in the first place, and what instilled a deep enough love of something that you were willing to be in a business that isn't the easiest or most stable, or is certainly quite an anxiety-provoking lifestyle to choose,” Platt told us. “The purity of their excitement to be there, their raw talent and willingness to jump in—and also how deeply they looked up to all of us, and were listening to us—it makes you take a lot of responsibility and pride in the kind of artists and professionals that you are, and that you want to inspire them to be.” On this episode of In the Envelope: The Actor's Podcast, Platt explains what theater can teach every actor, and what making “Theater Camp” taught him about himself. --- Backstage has been the #1 resource for actors and talent-seekers for 60 years.

Four years ago, the release of this film marked the directorial debut of Olivia Wilde who up until this time had mostly been well-known as an actress.  And she really does make quite a memorable debut with this raunchy "One Crazy Night" comedy about two soon-to-be-high-school graduates (Kaitlyn Dever, Beanie Feldstein) who are the smartest students in their class and the best of friends.  As one of them just found out that they are not the only graduates in their class who are going on to bigger and better things, they decide to spend this one last night before graduation to show that they can also have "fun" with the best of them.  And what results is a night of parties, drugs, homicidal cabbies, fancy yachts, and various other hijinks!  Also along for the ride are co-stars Jessica Williams, Mason Gooding, Diana Silvers, Molly Gordon, and Billie Lourd.Host: Geoff Gershon Special Guest Co-Host: Isabelle Gershon Editors: Geoff and Ella GershonProducer: Marlene Gershonhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/
