Is love truly blind? Just ask the Love is Blind contestant who accidentally glued her eyeball shut (we're not laughing, you are). Today, we're celebrating Sarah's birthday by hoping she gets to do what she loves most, sneaking food into the cinema. We also vent about a torturous hike ruined by unprompted motivational speeches from men on the trail. Then, we get into the science of attraction. Think you have a "type"? Sarah explains why you're wrong, who you actually like, and why the person of your dreams is probably already off the market.The Dating Debate: Be honest, do you actually have a "type" or do you think it's all a myth?#LoveIsBlind #DatingMyths #RelationshipAdvice #DatingPsychology #MovieSnacks #HikingAdventures #TrailEtiquetteBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:This episode is sponsored by Betterhelp.

Synopsis:  Surviving and Thriving in Turbulent Times Third World Newsreel's Enduring Legacy This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: It's almost unheard of for an independent media collective to survive as long as Third World Newsreel has. Since 1968, they have chronicled some of the most pivotal movements in human history and continue to expand on their collection of over 700 titles. There's lots to learn about how they've adapted through technological revolutions, political persecutions, philanthropic booms and busts — and how the oldest media arts collective in the U.S. is making do in today's “media carnage”, as Laura Flanders puts it. Joining us are JT Takagi, an independent filmmaker, sound recordist, and the longtime executive director of Third World Newsreel. Tami Gold is an artist and activist whose documentaries grapple with everything from imperialism to sex work. Her films include My Country Occupied, Another Brother and Land Rain Fire among many more. Puerto Rican-born Juan Carlos Dávila works in film as well as TV, where he reports on social movements around environmentalism, militarism and the struggles of the working class on the island. His films include The Stand-By Generation, Viequez: An Endless Battle and Drills of Liberation. Join us as we look at the past, present and future of Third World Newsreel and ask how film can be used as a tool for organizing. “I'd say we feel more urgent now than ever before. Every day there's something happening that makes it clear that our rights and liberties, and people's lives all over the world are at stake. Not being in touch with the history and media that shows the truth of what's going on is really decimating people's ability to, as Juan said, know what to follow and what to do.” - JT Takagi “We need to retake the theater, the physical space that is being ignored by the corporations. Perhaps now that is the opportunity that we have . . . A theater is being rented by people who are organizers, and they're using their collective spirit and know-how to organize huge, huge crowds to come.” - Tami Gold “People can shoot stuff with the phone . . . I see a lot in Puerto Rico that people are still wanting to produce with the corporate industry standards. Many young filmmakers like myself tend to think that we need so many personnel to be doing films. Right now we can actually make films with less.” - Juan Carlos Dávila Guests: •  Juan Carlos Dávila: Documentary Filmmaker, Multimedia Journalist, Puerto Rico Correspondent, Democracy Now! •  Tami Gold: Filmmaker, Artist, Activist •  JT Takagi: Executive Director, Third World Newsreel   Watch on YouTube this episode that includes video clips referenced in this episode from Third World Newsreel; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).

Dr. Joseph Williams was raised in Brooklyn by his mother and grandmother, but the allure of the streets quickly led him into fighting, selling crack, and a 4-year bid in New Jersey.

Ubisoft pulls a bad move and closes a studio that just unionized. Stranger Things ended on a high note, despite what the internet thinks. Plus everything Nick's is looking forward to in 2026.

Warner Bros. Discovery has officially rejected Paramount Skydance's latest offer, and it looks like the Netflix merger is a sure thing. However, theater owners are VERY concerned that Netflix will not keep them in mind -- and why SHOULD they? Netflix doesn't NEED movie theaters. And they've been very careful how they're wording the theatrical window to the press. James Gunn is also weighing in on the deal, which means his DCU may not be a sure thing after all...Watch this podcast episode on YouTube and all major podcast hosts including Spotify.CLOWNFISH TV is an independent, opinionated news and commentary podcast that covers Entertainment and Tech from a consumer's point of view.

In this quick headlines segment, the host breaks down the report that Netflix wants a 17-day theatrical window for Warner Bros. movies if the acquisition goes through, while stressing what's actually confirmed versus what's still just reported. They compare that rumored 17-day window to the current 45-day standard theaters prefer, explain why Netflix would love the shorter timeline, and talk about what it could mean for the future of movie theaters. The episode wraps with a simple reminder that the deal will take time, and there will be more updates as new details come out.00:00 Reported 17-day window and what's confirmed vs rumored00:16 Netflix's public message about keeping releases “traditional”00:22 Why theaters want 45 days, not a throwback 90-day window00:30 Why 17 days works for Netflix's release strategy00:43 What this could mean for theaters and how fans can support them00:55 Reminder: Netflix hasn't publicly confirmed the 17-day plan01:08 Wrap-up and next updatesThe “17-day window” is being reported as what Netflix wants, but it has not been publicly confirmed by Netflix.Netflix has publicly said it wants releases to stay “traditional” and “industry standard,” which is part of its pitch around the acquisition.The current common standard theaters point to is around 45 days, which exhibitors see as the workable middle ground.A shorter window could front-load hype into opening weekend, then shift viewing to at-home right as word of mouth usually boosts later weeks.If theatrical exclusivity shrinks, theaters may lean even harder into event-style experiences, and attendance plus concession sales matter more than ever.“Let's clarify what's going on here.”“Netflix themselves have not said that.”“The standard is 45, and that's what theaters want.”“Don't sneak in candy or sodas.

Episode 180 of Kliq This bounces between old school habits and modern chaos, with Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver kicking things off on a very specific hill: paper tax documents, physical records, and why trusting everything to "the cloud" feels like inviting trouble. From there it turns into a surprisingly personal holiday conversation, with Kevin talking about why Christmas hits differently for him, and Sean pitching a very "classic TV special" solution that Kevin immediately wants no part of. It is funny, but it is also real in the way this show is at its best. Then the curtain pulls back on Kevin's at home setup and it becomes its own kind of comedy. Spotty cell reception, an ocean view bathroom routine, DirecTV, DVR logic, and a mindset that basically says if you can avoid leaving the house, you should. It is the most Kevin Nash segment possible. The back half goes everywhere in the best way. NFL misery, wrestling lore, commentary talk, and the kind of audience driven questions that send the conversation into unexpected lanes, including a game that absolutely sounds like it should not work on a wrestling podcast and somehow does. If you are in the 11SOFT Club, this one feels like hanging out in the room for the whole ride.

Top Stories for December 13th Publish Date: December 13th PRE-ROLL: SUGAR HILL ICE SKATING From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Saturday, December 13th and Happy Birthday to Ted Nugent I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by Gwinnett KIA Mall of Georgia. Suwanee recognizes Eagle Scout projects Suspect arrested after road rage incident leads to stabbing on I-85 in Gwinnett Peachtree Corners Town Center's movie theater is third major closure of 2025 Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk Break 1: THE STRAND HOLIDAY STORY 1: Suwanee recognizes Eagle Scout projects At November’s City Council meeting, Suwanee took a moment to shine a spotlight on three incredible Eagle Scouts who poured their time, energy, and heart into projects that made the community a little brighter. “Thank you to these young leaders for their creativity and dedication,” the city shared. Here’s what they accomplished: Jocelyn Carsley (Troop 5109) transformed the barn at White Street Park with a kids’ activity area and a colorful mural. Meredith Carsley (Troop 5109) built observation decks for better views at city events. Colin Kenney (Troop 608) revamped the landscaping around the “Mommy” sculpture at PlayTown Suwanee. Amazing work, all around! STORY 2: Suspect arrested after road rage incident leads to stabbing on I-85 in Gwinnett A man accused of stabbing another driver in a road rage clash last month has been arrested, Gwinnett County police announced. The incident happened on Nov. 13 along I-85 South. Peter Chai, the victim, told officers he got into a heated exchange with a white van. Things escalated fast. According to police, the van’s driver, Yoandry Rincon, got out, approached Chai’s window, and stabbed him in the chest. Chai fought back—grabbing a bat from his car—which sent Rincon running back to his van. Chai was hospitalized but has since recovered. Rincon? He’s now in Gwinnett County Jail, facing aggravated assault charges. STORY 3: Peachtree Corners Town Center's movie theater is third major closure of 2025 It’s been a tough year for Peachtree Corners Town Center, and now there’s more bad news to close out 2025—CMX Cinebistro has shut its doors. The theater, which opened in March 2019, quietly disappeared from the CMX website, though it was still being hyped on social media just a few months ago as the go-to spot for date nights and family outings. This marks the third big closure in six months. Lazy Dog left in July, blaming parking headaches, and Uncle Jack’s Meat House followed in August. For a six-year-old development, it’s starting to feel like a rough patch. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info. We’ll be right back Break 2: Ingles Markets - DTL HOLIDAY STORY 4: Housing Matters: HUD pauses changes to housing grants after lawsuit The cost of living is crushing, and it’s forcing people into impossible situations—cramped hotel rooms, shelters, or worse, the streets. Here’s the latest on housing and homelessness: HUD’s Homeless Aid Shake-Up Hits Pause The Trump administration’s plan to cap grants for permanent housing and programs like those supporting transgender communities has been put on hold after a lawsuit. Critics say the changes would displace 170,000 people. HUD now promises a revised policy by January. Atlanta Food Bank’s Big Push With demand up 70%, the Atlanta Community Food Bank is racing to collect 10 million meals by year’s end. A $100,000 match doubles every donation. Housing Market Stalls New home listings dropped 1.7%—the sharpest decline in two years. Buyers and sellers are waiting, unsure of what 2026 will bring. STORY 5: Kim Peeples makes a lifelong impact on Brookwood’s theater family For Kim Peeples, music isn’t just a career—it’s her heartbeat. She retired from Brookwood High in 2019, but let’s be honest, she never really left. This year, she hit a milestone: her 100th musical production, “String,” which won the region one-act competition. Peeples’ journey with Brookwood started in the early ’80s, when she was fresh out of college and working under her middle school chorus teacher, Lori Ziecker. “Lori was everything,” Peeples said, her voice catching. “She passed in May, but her influence is everywhere.” Over the years, Peeples became a cornerstone of Brookwood’s theater and choral programs, working alongside the Lindahl family—first Ken and Patty, and now their daughter, Laura. And family is exactly what Brookwood has been to Peeples. From directing “Evita” in 1990 to the award-winning “1940s Radio Hour” in 1998, and more recent productions like “Ragtime” and “Bright Star,” her passion has left an indelible mark.
