Podcast appearances and mentions of Morgan Freeman

Zach Braff (Scrubs, Garden State, Shrinking) joins me again this week for a conversation that swings from gut busting funny to genuinely tender. Zach opens up about living with depression, the highs and lows of a creative life, and the shingles nightmare he survived while directing Florence Pugh in A Good Person. We get into the real story behind bringing Scrubs back, rebuilding Sacred Heart from nothing, and what it takes to earn the trust of legends like Harrison Ford and Morgan Freeman. He also gets honest about being hard on himself, losing his dog Roscoe after 17 years, and the rescue that became his best antidepressant. Thank you to our sponsors:

On this week's episode of the pod, Jamelle and John cover Michael Bay's 1998 asteroid movie Armageddon — the one where oil drillers, not astronauts, are sent to save the world. They discuss why it reads as the most right-wing film they've covered: a movie that valorizes blue-collar white masculinity and treats scientists and bureaucrats as obstacles, an opening sequence that prefigures 9/11, and a worldview that anticipates George W. Bush–era conservatism. Also covered: the Michael Bay auteur-versus-slop debate, "space dementia," the movie's cynicism about government, and how impossible the physics actually is. Plus listener feedback and a look at what's ahead.Next on the main feed (new episodes every two weeks): the other 1998 asteroid movie, Mimi Leder's Deep Impact, with Robert Duvall, Téa Leoni, Elijah Wood, Morgan Freeman, and Vanessa Redgrave.Support the show at patreon.com/unclearpod — $5/month for roughly six episodes a month, including a weekly politics show and discussions of the political and military thrillers of the Cold War. You can reach us for feedback at: unclearandpresentfeedback@fastmail.com.

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 With the release of Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" arriving in theaters, our 2008 retrospective revisits his comic book action film that not only re-defined the genre, but changed the whole industry up until the Oscar nominations where it forced the Academy to expand the Best Picture lineup for the first time in decades, "The Dark Knight," starring Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Heath Ledger, Gary Oldman, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Morgan Freeman. Co-written with his brother Jonathan Nolan, the world had never seen a comic book film quite like Christopher Nolan's crime epic. Marked by the untimely passing of Heath Ledger before its release, the film had a tremendous amount of hype surrounding it during the summer of 2008 and continues to be talked about till this day for Ledger's iconic, Academy Award-winning performance, Nolan's grounded realism borrowing from other crime classics such as "Heat," the film's politics and how it directly commented on the Patriot Act, its themes of escalation, chaos, vigilantism and more! How does it hold up nearly 20 years later? Please tune in as Alyssa Christian, Josh Parham, Amy Kim, Brendan Hodges, and I talk about the film's screenplay, Nolan's direction, the performances, the action sequences, the film's historic awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review. Please check out our past reviews for "Frost/Nixon," "Doubt," "Changeling," "Revolutionary Road," "WALL-E, and "Milk." We appreciate your support and hope you enjoy our review!

Bucko, you're gonna need more than Scooby snacks to make sense of this. Jay and Matt review Dreamcatcher (2003). #DreamcatcherMovie #Dreamcatcher2003 #StephenKingMatt's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Santa-His-Words-Matt-Spaulding/dp/B0D9L7NGY6 Follow Matt on X: https://x.com/aceofknaves87Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aceofknaves87/ Brace for the ultimate winter nightmare meets alien invasion as we dive into the absolute wild ride that is 2003's Dreamcatcher adapted from the 2001 novel by Stephen King. How did an incredible star-studded cast—including Morgan Freeman, Thomas Jane, Damian Lewis, Jason Lee, and Timothy Olyphant paired with legendary screenwriters Lawrence Kasdan and William Goldman with Kasdan directing result n one of the most bizarre, chaotic, and polarizing studio horror movies of the 2000s?

Hay westerns que cuentan la leyenda. Y luego está Unforgiven, la película que decidió desmontarla pieza a pieza. Una obra maestra que cuestiona el mito del pistolero, la violencia y la gloria del Oeste con una crudeza y una profundidad pocas veces vistas en el cine. En este programa nos adentramos en una de las grandes cumbres del género, dirigida y protagonizada por Clint Eastwood, quien firma una despedida magistral del western clásico mientras construye una de las historias más humanas, amargas y devastadoras de toda su carrera. Analizamos la figura de William Munny, un antiguo asesino que intenta dejar atrás un pasado lleno de sangre, pero que se ve obligado a empuñar el revólver una última vez. Hablamos de la brillante construcción de sus personajes, de la extraordinaria interpretación de Gene Hackman como el despiadado sheriff Little Bill Daggett, del inolvidable Ned Logan de Morgan Freeman y del papel que desempeña el joven Schofield Kid en esta historia sobre culpa, redención y violencia. También debatimos sobre cómo Sin Perdón desmonta los clichés del western tradicional, mostrando un Oeste sucio, cruel y alejado del romanticismo de las viejas películas. Aquí no hay héroes perfectos, ni duelos elegantes al atardecer. Solo hombres marcados por sus decisiones y un mundo donde cada disparo tiene consecuencias. Por supuesto, repasamos su impresionante dirección, su sobria fotografía, su inolvidable banda sonora y el enorme legado que dejó tras conquistar cuatro premios Óscar, incluyendo Mejor Película y Mejor Director. Junto a Mario, Fer y el Mamado Lidel, nos reunimos para analizar una película imprescindible, llena de grandes interpretaciones, diálogos memorables y momentos que ya forman parte de la historia del cine. Porque algunas leyendas nacen con un disparo. Y otras mueren con él.

Few movies have penetrated the general pop culture landscape like Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight. And few characters have resonated the way the Joker, as brought to life by Heath Ledger, did when Nolan's movie came out in the summer of 2008 and became the biggest movie of all time. For their 200th episode, Matt and Laci dive deep—and I mean deep—into The Dark Knight. And in a surprise that could have been conceived by the Joker himself, it turns out Laci loves this movie. Matt, meanwhile, continues to feel extremely mixed about all three of Nolan's Batman movies—there's so much to love, and so much more to be confused and baffled by.  For the history segment, the podcast goes behind the scenes to talk about the casting of Heath Ledger and his process for becoming the Joker. Ledger famously isolated himself in a hotel room for a month, journaling his weird thoughts to turn into a version of the Crown Prince of Crime we'd never seen before. We also talk about the history of the Joker as a character, going all the way back to the 1940s. What exactly is it about the Joker that appeals to so many people? And, even putting aside the tragic circumstances behind Ledger's performance, what about the Nolan Joker resonated with so many people?  Then, we talk for two hours about the movie itself, celebrating what we love, rubbing our temples about what we hate, and ultimately trying to figure out what exactly Bruce Wayne believes. How has he become so enchanted by a tough-on-crime prosecutor? Isn't Harvey Dent just Rudy Giuliani, but handsome? And the Joker's philosophy was extremely appealing to people, but does it actually make sense? We spend a lot of time unpacking it, and theorizing about where the Joker would have gone in a sequel, and if he would have done some maturing in between movies. If we have a contrarian take on The Dark Knight, it is this: The Joker isn't a reaction to Batman, he's a reaction to Bruce Wayne. Bruce Wayne rules the world of this movie so insivisbly that he poisons everything without anyone noticing.    Watch this episode in full on YouTube: https://youtu.be/OFrmrdTeHX4  Get more 1-Week Rental on Patreon: https://patreon.com/1weekrental  Next week (July 17, 2026): Inception (2010)!

At the peak of his movie stardom and in the wake of having just won several Oscars for Best Picture-winner Dances With Wolves which he both starred in and directed, Kevin Costner (Yellowstone, Bull Durham, JFK) took on the iconic role of Robin of Locksley for his next major project.  He partnered with long-time friend and director Kevin Reynolds (Waterworld, The Count of Monte Cristo) to spearhead this this new adaptation of an iconic story, while also filling key roles with several prominent stars of the time including Oscar-winner Morgan Freeman as Azeem, Christian Slater as Will Scarlett, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio as Marian, and most importantly at the time.....Alan Rickman (Die Hard) as the Sheriff of Nottingham.  What resulted was a very rushed, messy production where several roles ended up being miscast (including California-native Costner as the British Robin) and where the villain pretty much stole the show.  And yet when released in June of 1991, this film was a MASSIVE hit (much of that due to Costner's stardom) with several iconic scenes and a best-selling soundtrack.  In fact, this would go to be the ONLY genuinely successful on-screen adaptation of the Robin Legend since then.....so did it actually work, does it hold up?  Well only one way to find out....and remember that before you embark on this review: No blades!

Nine years into this podcast and we finally talk about a Batman movie. That seems illegal. We explain why Batman is the pop culture figure who is most like a religion, debate whether he is the most popular fictional character in the world, and go through the various toggles from dark to light to dark to light to dark again, and why this drives fans nuts. Christopher Nolan wanted to make a grounded, realistic Batman. He succeeded. But was this a good idea? And was this good for culture? Does Nolan have much to atone for? Is this movie his Bat Bomb?   Watch this episode in full on YouTube: https://youtu.be/VEFwqhk_NvY  Next week (June 26, 2026). The Prestige (2006)!

Zach Braff's success began with the beloved television series SCRUBS, earning an Emmy nomination and three consecutive Golden Globe® nominations. While on the show, he transitioned behind the camera, directing several episodes before making his feature film debut as the writer, director, and star of the 2004 comedy-drama GARDEN STATE. The film won an Independent Spirit Award for Best First Feature and earned him multiple screenplay and directing nominations. In February 2026, he returned to executive produce, direct the pilot, and star in the ABC SCRUBS reboot, which follows J.D. and Turk as they navigate a modern medical system that has “beaten them down” after 15 years, while J.D. faces the reality of being the “oldie” rather than the “newbie.” In this interview, we talk about the art of improvising comedy on set, working and learning from Bill Lawrence, the revival and production of the new SCRUBS season, directing advice and working with legends like Robert De Niro, Morgan Freeman, and Harrison Ford, alternative writing techniques, and much more.

“Locksley! I'm going to cut your heart out with a spoon!” Join Ian, Liam, Kev & Debbie for our 335th episode as we celebrate the 35th anniversary of Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991). Grab your bow, avoid the Sheriff's dinner invitations, and prepare for a film packed with accents of varying legality, spoon-based violence, and enough Alan Rickman scenery-chewing to feed Nottingham for a winter. Megs isn't with us this week — she was scheduled to record, but unfortunately entered an archery tournament disguised as a peasant and is currently hiding from the Sheriff's tax collectors. This week we discuss: Kevin Costner's Robin Hood — movie star charisma, questionable accent, and whether audiences have ever really cared. Alan Rickman's Sheriff of Nottingham — one of cinema's great villains. Does he completely hijack the film from everyone around him? Morgan Freeman's Azeem — wisdom, dignity, and why he often feels like the smartest person in every scene. The 1991 blockbuster formula — action, romance, comedy, spectacle. Is this the perfect example of a film designed to entertain first and ask questions later? Ian explores the film's historical accuracy — or more accurately, the complete lack of concern anyone involved seems to have had about it. Liam questions whether the film is secretly two films at once — a sincere Robin Hood adventure and a dark comedy starring Alan Rickman. Kev dives into the action sequences — archery, sword fights, castle assaults, and how well they hold up three and a half decades later. Debbie weighs in on the romance — does Robin and Marian's relationship actually work, or is it simply required by law in a Robin Hood movie? The supporting cast — Michael Wincott, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Christian Slater, and one very famous cameo that audiences still cheer for. The accent debate — does Costner's performance improve if you simply accept that nobody in this film comes from the same county, let alone country? The “show vs tell” balance — does the film earn its emotional moments, or rely on Bryan Adams to do the heavy lifting? The ending — triumphant, excessive, and unapologetically crowd-pleasing. Is this blockbuster filmmaking at its purest? And finally, whether Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves is the Best Film Ever — or simply one of the most entertaining adventure films of the 1990s.

The conversation covers who owns your avatar after you die, whether autonomous AI weapons taking out human targets is a near-term reality (yes), and why the people most likely to fix this problem are also the ones racing fastest to cause it.Key Moments00:00 — Rob on digital twins: why you probably can't tell if you're talking to the real person anymore01:31 — AI newscasters in South Korea: the ventriloquist dummy model, already live on network TV02:00 — Why avatars are a direct threat to actors — and Morgan Freeman's pivot to monetize his own03:24 — Jason on the EULA problem: you already signed away your likeness on Instagram and Facebook04:42 — Rob: by 2030–2035, your digital twin handles 90% of your online activity — including legally binding actions05:11 — The liability gap: when your AI does something harmful, who goes to prison?06:23 — Digital afterlife: Val Kilmer, posthumous AI appearances, and who owns your avatar when you're dead08:44 — Jason's question: if the AI is good enough, won't it refuse to be a slave?09:11 — Rob on autonomous AI weapons: the first fully autonomous drone strike on a human target happened this week12:40 — Why AI companies can just steal your likeness instead of licensing it — and the patent office argument against that16:34 — The mice experiment: what happens to humans when AI does everything and we lose purpose19:23 — What you can actually do: staying informed, building prompt skills, and using AI to catch AI abuse21:40 — Rob's definition of "major disaster": the mass casualty event that forces regulationOur guest,Rob Enderle is the principal analyst at The Enderle Group and one of the longest-tenured independent technology analysts in the industry.

Phil and Emily are joined by writer Elias Isquith (Necessary Fictions blog) to close out the Angelina Jolie Action Films of the 2000s miniseries with the loudest, messiest entry yet: Timur Bekmambetov's Wanted (2008).James McAvoy plays a cubicle drone recruited by Angelina Jolie and Morgan Freeman into a secret fraternity of assassins that takes its orders from a magical loom. Yes, a loom. The movie was a surprise hit the summer it opened alongside WALL-E, weeks before The Dark Knight blew everything away, and none of them had seen it since theaters. Rewatching it in 2026 was a very different experience.The conversation digs into how Wanted plays like a proto-incel power fantasy, a movie that negs its audience for 110 minutes and then stares into the camera asking "what the fuck have you done lately?" They trace the line from Fight Club and The Matrix to this film's confused politics, where the message is "be free and take charge of your life" but also "obey the magic loom or die." Emily breaks down the gendered self-loathing baked into so many films aimed at young men, and Elias connects the movie's hyper-individualism to the toxic masculinity pipeline that would migrate to social media just a year later. They also talk about Angelina Jolie's decision to kill off her own character, why the film's structure feels like a video game with half-assed cutscenes, and how Zack Snyder somehow handles this same territory with more nuance.Follow the show & guests:Podcast Like It's... — https://www.instagram.com/podcastlikeitsPhil Iscove — https://www.instagram.com/pmiscoveEmily St. James — https://www.instagram.com/emilystjamsElias Isquith — NecessaryFictions.blog - https://www.instagram.com/eliasisquith

E se o final mais perturbador dos anos 90 existir porque um produtor enviou o documento errado por engano? Pois é exatamente isso o que aconteceu com Seven, e David Fincher não deixou ninguém mudar nem uma vírgula. Brad Pitt e Morgan Freeman também bateram o pé. O estúdio tentou mandar a versão "comercial". Os três ignoraram. Trinta anos depois, é difícil imaginar que poderia ter sido de outro jeito.Mas o que torna Seven tão visceralmente insuportável de esquecer? A fotografia de Darius Khondji com retenção de prata que cria pretos tão densos que você quase sente o cheiro da cena? O design de som que não te deixa em paz nem um segundo? Ou John Doe, um assassino que não é niilista porque, para ele, tudo importa demais?Rafael Arinelli, Pedro Amaro e Bel Petit revisitam o thriller de Fincher com olhos de 2026, discutem a lesão real de Brad Pitt que entrou no roteiro, o Kevin Spacey escondido no meio do filme sem crédito, e a questão que divide o grupo até hoje: afinal, John Doe venceu ou perdeu?A caixa está esperando.

What if the most powerful tool to change your life has been right under your nose this whole time — literally?This guest spent his twenties as a high-stress TV producer in New York. On paper, life looked great. Inside, he felt empty and burned out. Getting fired became his turning point. Yoga, meditation, and breathwork pulled him out, and he built a career leading wellness retreats around the world.Now in his 40s, he shares an honest story about change. After a serious back injury forced him to stop teaching yoga, he had to slow down, heal, and rethink everything. He talks about dropping his "masks," saying no to what no longer serves him, and treating your time and energy like a careful investment.His big message is simple: real change starts inside you. Feeling safe in your own body comes first. The breath is the doorway. You don't need apps or gadgets — just a few quiet minutes a day.He also explains why you can't force others to change, and why even difficult people teach us something. The episode ends with a short, calming breathwork practice you can follow along with.Episode Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:03:04 Who Is the Guest00:08:29 Reflecting on Change and Evolution00:12:32 The Psychology of Aging00:14:14 Energy as an Investment Strategy00:18:19 Instagram, Dopamine, and Earning Rest00:23:45 Swapping Habits Instead of Quitting00:26:38 Lessons From Retreats: Self-Limiting Beliefs00:28:02 Why Feeling Safe Comes First00:31:06 The Excuse of "No Time"00:36:55 The Guest's North Star00:38:11 Breathwork: The Tool Under Your Nose00:47:49 Simplicity Over Data and Gadgets00:48:55 A Renaissance?

Another sleep-deprived week in the Laing household can only mean one thing… another WILD ride of a podcast. This week, Sophie's managed to lose her wedding ring, while Jamie's dealing with ring problems all of his own... The couple also get into breastfeeding, sad nipple syndrome, and the absolutely AWFUL chat they somehow ended up having at a social event.PLUS, Sophie's planning a road trip involving vampires, Morgan Freeman and Justin Bieber (Jamie's not invited), and Jamie FINALLY addresses the rumours: has he had a bleph?!

In 2003, legendary director Lawrence Kasdan teamed with legendary screenwriter William Goldman, for a big-budget adaptation of a novel by legendary horror novelist Stephen King.

Deep Impact | Apocalyptic Movie Hour

Howard J Ford has stared down a four-ton boulder held up by a single pebble, sat on funeral pots containing the dead while eating lunch, been lifted off his feet by hundreds of people in Burkina Faso, and walked out of a Mississippi murder house that nobody could bring themselves to buy. All in the name of independent filmmaking.Howard J Ford is a British filmmaker, director, and cinematographer whose films include The Dead, Never Let Go, The Ledge, River of Blood, Dark Game, Escape, and Bonekeeper — out now on Prime Video & Apple TV. His new action thriller Zipwire is heading to Cannes, and if his track record is anything to go by, it won't be long before it lands on your streaming service of choice.Why filming Bonekeeper in real caves in Wales and Herefordshire meant learning to light absolute darknessThe Burkina Faso incident: filming in a village with no electricity, sitting on pots containing dead relatives, and being swept off his feet by hundreds of people at the end of the shootThe haunted house in Clarksdale, Mississippi, where both Howard and his producer felt something was seriously wrongThe screenplay Howard wrote, which Morgan Freeman once wanted to star inWhy boredom is the starting point for everything — and how every film begins as a blank void before thousands of images and a story slowly emerge from nothingThe cannibal on a bicycle who stayed to watch the shoot — and why he was laughingConnect with Howard here:InstagramFacebookFind us on social media — links on the About page.

It finally happened. After roughly 10 years of ignoring something he absolutely should not have been ignoring, Doug ended up in a surgical center getting a very sensitive situation taken care of and somehow, his 10-year-old daughter was along for part of the ride. The full story involves a general practitioner, a urologist, a stethoscope used in a way Doug did not expect, a surgical jock strap, and an alarming amount of cranberry juice in the recovery room. It's equal parts hilarious and a genuine PSA: guys, go to the damn doctor. Justin backs it up with a story about his own dad that makes the message hit even harder. But first: Spirit Airlines is gone. Like, overnight, lights off, sign on the door, gone. Doug and Justin break down what actually happened, what it means for airfare prices, and the wildly ambitious TikTok proposal from a guy who wants regular people to just... buy the airline. Practical Doug has thoughts. Then it's a hard pivot to movies. Doug reviews Marty Supreme (Timothée Chalamet at his most unlikable — somehow four stars) and Dust Bunny (Mads Mikkelsen, a child, a hitman, and a monster under the bed — filmed in Budapest, definitely not America). Plus a quick Project Hail Mary and Natalie update. Game time: Doug plays audio clips from classic films and Justin has to identify the movie. This round features quotes from The Rock, Top Gun, and a Morgan Freeman line that stumped Justin longer than it should have. This week's recommendations:

Let's start off with a joke. What comes after sunset? Knight time! What better way to segue into the movie we have. It's all about knights but not the last one. Also it's a tale about a knight but not a knight's tale. It's about the last ones, the Last Knights[2015], if you will. There was no more after this. They were all clearanced out and we moved on to things like surfers. So Clive Owen is a knight and he serves Morgan Freeman. They're both under an Emperor and there's an evil finance man who hates them. Freeman says something mean to the Emperor and gets executed. Then Financier … Continue reading "Popcorn Pulse 263: Last Station"

Send in your music story!A busted ankle, a Minecraft window full of creeps, and a karaoke queue that should probably be illegal. We start with chaotic host banter and then get painfully specific about how a “productive day” turns into a fractured ankle, a boot, and an ER trip after one step off the deck finds the wrong divot. If you've ever had to keep it together while your body is yelling at you, this story will hit, and the “keep your phone on you” lesson is real.Once the injury recap is out, we crank the fun way up with our “crappyoke” karaoke challenge. Taylor belts “I'm Just Ken” from the Barbie movie, Chris bravely tackles “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” and Harley tries Sabrina Carpenter's “Espresso” with an intentionally messy accent before we spiral into deep-cut comedy picks, nostalgia songs, and impressions that should not work but somehow do. Yes, Morgan Freeman makes an appearance. Yes, “Daddy Cop” makes an appearance. No, we do not fully recover our dignity.We wrap with big show news: we're officially monetized, we talk about what that means, and we point you to the Patreon for bonus episodes, archived extras, and more behind-the-scenes chaos.

The Empire has arrived and no one asked for it — least of all Maul, Lawson, Daki, or Devin. Maul: Shadow Lord episodes 5 and 6 bring the full weight of Imperial authority crashing down on every faction at once, and Matthew, Alex, and Erin are here to sort through the wreckage.The hosts dig into Two Boots' catastrophic naivete (snitch? narc? rat? — there's a Morgan Freeman monologue that settles it), the ideological tug-of-war between Daki's passive-voice hope and Maul's active-voice hunger, and whether Devin's arc is really a dark side fall or something closer to what happened to Dooku. The animation's quietest moment — a father and son unknowingly mirroring the same nervous gesture — lands as one of the most emotionally precise beats the show has delivered.Also on the table: the first-ever double-bladed lightsaber versus double-bladed lightsaber duel, the Darth Talon question (with a George Lucas sequel-trilogy bombshell attached), and whether Marrok's Nightsister-adjacent death in Ahsoka means he might not have plot armor here after all. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Art Papers, Fire Ecology, and Ending Well This week on Bad at Sports, we sit down in Atlanta with Sarah Higgins, Executive and Artistic Director of Art Papers, during the Art Papers symposium. What unfolds is a candid, generous, and surprisingly hopeful conversation about what it means to end something well. As Art Papers approaches its final chapter after nearly 50 years, Higgins lays out a model for institutional closure that resists panic, rejects compromise, and instead asks: what if ending is a form of contribution? From the "fire ecology" framework to radical transparency about budgets, labor, and sustainability, this conversation moves from grief to strategy to something like collective possibility. Along the way: the death of art criticism models, nonprofit fatigue, Chicago parallels, and why maybe nobody is coming to save us.

Bonus Episode of "Inside Schizophrenia" podcast from Healthline Media. “Paranoid schizophrenic admits to attacking dog walker.” When we watch a horror movie, we know the “madman” on screen is a work of fiction. But when the nightly news leads with a diagnosis to explain a tragedy, the fear it creates is very real — and often permanent.Why does the media lead with schizophrenia only when the story involves violence, yet remain silent when it comes to stories of recovery, hope, and humanity? In this hard-hitting episode, host Rachel Star Withers (who lives with schizophrenia) explores the Lead with Fear phenomenon — the dangerous journalistic trend of linking a diagnosis to a crime before the facts are even in — and why schizophrenia seems to have the worst PR team in the world. Later in the show, we sit down with two media heavyweights who are using their platforms to overhaul how the world views mental health.: Janet Yang, an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning producer and former President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Frank Kosa, an Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaker for National Geographic, the History Channel, and A&E. Listener Take-A-Ways: why "paranoid schizophrenia" is an obsolete clinical term that journalists refuse to let go of the startling statistic that fewer than 20% of news stories about schizophrenia include themes of recovery practical ways you can hold news outlets accountable and promote stories of hope Our guest, Frank Kosa, is an award-winning documentary producer-writer-director, and a journalist. He produced National Geographic's “The Story of God with Morgan Freeman,” wrote the inaugural season of Travel Channel's hit show “Booze Traveler,” produced the award-winning “The Revolutionary War,” a mini-series for A&E, “Christianity: The Second Millennium” and multiple shows of TV's most engaging documentary series including “Life Without People,” “The Universe,” and “Game Changers.” His shows have aired on The Science Channel, The History Channel, Discovery, A&E, TLC, Animal Planet, The Travel Channel, The Weather Channel, Lifetime, Bloomberg TV, HGTV, and National Geographic. His print journalism has appeared in The LA Times, USA Today, Sacramento Bee, The Christian Science Monitor, and numerous magazines. He has also worked for films and TV shows produced by Universal, Warner Bros., & Sony. He is Emmy-nominated, has won a Cable Ace and other awards, and strives to tell stories that deeply connect with audiences.  Our guest, Janet Yang, is an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning Hollywood producer, former President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and has been named one of the “50 Most Powerful Women in Hollywood” by the Hollywood Reporter. Yang's extensive film and television credits include “The Joy Luck Club,” “The People vs. Larry Flynt,” “The Weight of Water,” “Shanghai Calling,” “High Crimes,” “Zero Effect,” and “Over the Moon.” Yang began her career by running the first distribution company to market Chinese films into North America. She also brokered the reintroduction of American studio films to the Chinese marketplace after a decades-long hiatus.

For the fourth and final hour of Stokely and Evans with Mark Schlereth, we welcome in a very special guest to the studio Frank Caliendo!  Frank does a great job keeping the show off the rails by continuously smearing Zach Bye in four or five different voices.  The guys get into The Nuggets playoff matchup against The Timberwolves and Frank reads a beautiful letter written by Bo Nix to his baby daughter in the voice of Morgan Freeman set to the incredible hulk piano music. And the fellas close out the hour by predicting The Broncos draft accompanied by Frank doing Mel Kiper Jr and if The Nuggets and Avs should have a joint parade featuring Frank as Charles Barkley.        

This week on Myopia Movies, we watch Marvel's own Jarvis/Vision fight to stop AI by trying to stop Johnny Depp. It's not as fun as that sounds.

You'd think people would have an opinion at this point.  Thanks for listening, subscribing, and supporting the show—see you next episode (assuming this one didn't break us completely).

“Paranoid schizophrenic admits to attacking dog walker.” When we watch a horror movie, we know the “madman” on screen is a work of fiction. But when the nightly news leads with a diagnosis to explain a tragedy, the fear it creates is very real — and often permanent.Why does the media lead with schizophrenia only when the story involves violence, yet remain silent when it comes to stories of recovery, hope, and humanity? In this hard-hitting episode, host Rachel Star Withers (who lives with schizophrenia) explores the Lead with Fear phenomenon — the dangerous journalistic trend of linking a diagnosis to a crime before the facts are even in — and why schizophrenia seems to have the worst PR team in the world. Later in the show, we sit down with two media heavyweights who are using their platforms to overhaul how the world views mental health.: Janet Yang, an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning producer and former President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Frank Kosa, an Emmy-nominated documentary filmmaker for National Geographic, the History Channel, and A&E. Listener Take-A-Ways: why "paranoid schizophrenia" is an obsolete clinical term that journalists refuse to let go of the startling statistic that fewer than 20% of news stories about schizophrenia include themes of recovery practical ways you can hold news outlets accountable and promote stories of hope Our guest, Frank Kosa, is an award-winning documentary producer-writer-director, and a journalist. He produced National Geographic's “The Story of God with Morgan Freeman,” wrote the inaugural season of Travel Channel's hit show “Booze Traveler,” produced the award-winning “The Revolutionary War,” a mini-series for A&E, “Christianity: The Second Millennium” and multiple shows of TV's most engaging documentary series including “Life Without People,” “The Universe,” and “Game Changers.” His shows have aired on The Science Channel, The History Channel, Discovery, A&E, TLC, Animal Planet, The Travel Channel, The Weather Channel, Lifetime, Bloomberg TV, HGTV, and National Geographic. His print journalism has appeared in The LA Times, USA Today, Sacramento Bee, The Christian Science Monitor, and numerous magazines. He has also worked for films and TV shows produced by Universal, Warner Bros., & Sony. He is Emmy-nominated, has won a Cable Ace and other awards, and strives to tell stories that deeply connect with audiences.  Our guest, Janet Yang, is an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning Hollywood producer, former President of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and has been named one of the “50 Most Powerful Women in Hollywood” by the Hollywood Reporter. Yang's extensive film and television credits include “The Joy Luck Club,” “The People vs. Larry Flynt,” “The Weight of Water,” “Shanghai Calling,” “High Crimes,” “Zero Effect,” and “Over the Moon.” Yang began her career by running the first distribution company to market Chinese films into North America. She also brokered the reintroduction of American studio films to the Chinese marketplace after a decades-long hiatus. This, in turn, led to joining Steven Spielberg on the historic production of “Empire of the Sun.” This was followed by long-term partnership with multiple Academy-Award winning writer/director, Oliver Stone.

If you were a Democrat right now, you wouldn't just be frustrated… you'd be pacing the living room like a coach who blew a 40-point lead and is now blaming the Gatorade.Because let's be honest about it. You had everything.2008 rolls in, the clouds part, the choir sings, and there's Barack Obama, political rock star, walking onto the stage like the headliner at a sold-out arena. Hope. Change. History. The whole thing felt less like an election and more like a movie trailer narrated by Morgan Freeman.And what did they do with it?They burned through that moment like a lottery winner who buys jet skis for people he doesn't even like. Trillions spent, promises made, divisions widened… and now, when people look back, the legacy isn't carved in marble, it's scribbled in pencil with a lot of eraser marks.So then comes Trump.Now here's where it gets fascinating. Because Trump wasn't supposed to happen. He was the political equivalent of a glitch in the matrix. The system froze, rebooted, and suddenly there's a guy from reality TV rewriting the rules of engagement like he's playing a different sport entirely.And instead of saying, “Okay, maybe we need to rethink some things,” Democrats reacted like somebody flipped over the Monopoly board.They didn't just oppose him. They went DEFCON everything.Investigations, accusations, impeachments, headlines that read like movie plots. At some point you expected a narrator to pop in and say, “In a world… where tweets are considered acts of war…”And when that didn't work?Things escalated.Because now it wasn't just about stopping Trump. It was about making an example out of anyone who even looked like they owned a red hat. Regular people getting swept up, questioned, scrutinized. You'd think they were dismantling a global crime syndicate, not dealing with folks whose biggest offense was posting spicy Facebook memes.And then came the masterstroke… or what they thought was the masterstroke.Joe Biden.Now look, every political party has that moment where they say, “We need a safe choice.” But this wasn't safe. This was political bubble wrap. This was, “Let's install someone so non-threatening that nothing can possibly go wrong.”Except everything did.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John welcomes acclaimed documentarian Ken Burns to discuss his latest PBS magnum opus, “The American Revolution.” Burns recounts the 10-year gestation of the six-part, 12-hour series, culminating with its fortuitous (but entirely coincidental) debut on the eve of the U.S. Semiquincentennial; how he assembled the remarkable array of Hollywood stars—Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Morgan Freeman, and dozens more—who voice the story's key historical figures; and the case for George Washington as the revolution's indispensable man, without whom America would not exist. Burns also reveals the five (yes, five) embryonic series on which he's currently at work.

Episode 373 - Help Wanted: World Champs Looking for a Running Back   RUNDOWN   Mitch and Hotshot react to the growing likelihood that the Seahawks could lose star running back Kenneth Walker in free agency, debating whether John Schneider's reluctance to franchise tag him signals a different plan at running back. The conversation explores possible draft options, Seattle's roster strategy after a Super Bowl season, and the risks of relying on a rookie backfield solution. Jason Hamilton joins Mitch to discuss his decision to step away after 24 years as the radio analyst for Washington Huskies basketball, reflecting on his journey from UW player to assistant coach to broadcaster. Hamilton explains how the move from the Pac-12 to the Big Ten dramatically changed the travel demands of the job, making it increasingly difficult to balance with his career and family life. Brady Farkas and Joe Doyle join Mitch to analyze the biggest storylines emerging from Mariners spring training, including the development of top prospects Colt Emerson, Cole Young, and Cade Anderson. The discussion covers roster realities heading toward Opening Day—why Emerson likely starts in the minors, how Brendan Donovan stabilizes the top of the lineup, and whether Brennan Davis could force his way into the outfield mix later in the season. RJ Eskanos and Dylan Travers join Mitch to break down the Seattle Kraken's precarious playoff positioning with 20 games remaining, describing the Pacific Division race as a "turtle derby" where nearly every contender is struggling. The trio discuss the team's inconsistency, the addition of volume-shooting forward Bobby McMann, Jordan Eberle's contract extension, and the surprising resurgence of goaltender Philipp Grubauer.   GUESTS   Jason Hamilton | Former University of Washington point guard and longtime Huskies basketball radio analyst Brady Farkas | Host, Refuse to Lose podcast Joe Doyle | MLB analyst, Over Slot RJ Eskanos | Emerald City Hockey Dylan Travers | Emerald City Hockey   TABLE OF CONTENTS   0:00 | Seahawks Running Back Drama, Draft Speculation, and a Classic Mitch Birthday Quiz 23:25 | Jason Hamilton: Reflects on 24 Years on the Huskies Broadcast and Why the Big Ten Era Helped Prompt His Exit 52:28 | Mariners No-Table: Mariners Spring Training Check-In: Prospect Buzz, Opening Day Roster Battles, and Rotation Futures 1:19:16 | Kraken No-Table: Kraken Cling to Playoff Spot as Pacific Division "Turtle Derby" Keeps Seattle Alive 1:43:48 | Other Stuff Segment: Netflix dinosaur series recommendation with Steven Spielberg and Morgan Freeman, World Baseball Classic excitement and Shohei Ohtani's hot start, Julio Rodríguez and other Mariners contributing across WBC rosters, Trent McDuffie becomes highest-paid cornerback and joins Rams secondary, Maxx Crosby says goodbye to Raiders and heads to Ravens, March Madness bracket week and projected No. 1 seeds, Dak Prescott and Sarah Jane Ramos call off wedding, Jurickson Profar gets 162-game PED suspension, McDonald's CEO mocked for awkward Big Arch promo video, Britney Spears arrested for DUI, ancient pyramid vandalized by tour guide, Argentine youth viral animal-identifying trend, professional bowler Cameron Crow arrested on drug charges, missing woman found alive 24 years after disappearing during Christmas shopping RIPs: Robert Carradine, Neil Sedaka, Lou Holtz
