When Abby Driscoll, a senior at Fort Defiance High School in Verona, VA had a piece placed in a school art show, she likely didn't expect the drama that ensued. Listener Tony Rogers of Fairfax, VA sent the story to The Leftscape via X/Twitter to spark conversation between co-hosts Robin Renée and Wendy Sheridan. This featured discussion ranges from thoughts on the artwork, "But Not Enough to Save You," to serious concerns about censorship, art and book banning, and right-wing influence on school boards, the importance of down-ballot electoral races, and the power of art as activism. The episode gets started with Wendy and Robin revealing their latest new knowledge in This Fortnight I Learned -- this time on the topics of the design of chef's hats and well-known actors whose 60s band collaboration is surprising. All the News We Can Handle includes Rudy Giuliani served with notice of his indictment for efforts to overturn 2020 presidential election results, Kristi Noem banned from Native American reservations, and a call from the international criminal court for arrest warrants for Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel's defense minister, Yoav Gallant, and Hamas leaders. Also in the news: the Human Rights Campaign's massive public education and mobilization campaign ahead of the 2024 elections, Nevada activists secure signatures for a vote on abortion access, Art Smart singing lessons, and much more. Before the featured discussion, Robin and Wendy enter The Blanket Fort for an extended personal check-in. Things to do: Watch the video: "A high school artist called out Christian bigotry. Her school board is furious. (Livestream)" https://youtu.be/SZLiDPhpdvE?si=bBg7_kVDysaqAOcv Read the article on FriendlyAtheist.com. Check out wendycardz on Etsy.

Guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter was an original Steely Dan member who played on the band's indelible first three albums: Can't Buy a Thrill, Countdown to Ecstasy and Pretzel Logic. Those are his memorable solos on “My Old School” and “Rikki Don't Lose That Number.” When Steely Dan quit touring, he found more success with the Doobie Brothers and eventually brought in singer Michael McDonald, who pushed that band in a more soulful, keyboards-heavy direction. Skunk left to do more studio and touring work and was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame with the Doobies. After all these years, he finally released his first-ever solo album, Speed of Heat. Oh, and in his "day job," he games out war scenarios for the U.S. government. He has a lot to reel in in this ear-opening Caropop conversation.
Si chiude senza grandi sorprese la fase 4 del Marvel Cinematic Universe: Wakanda Forever aveva un compito difficilissimo da portare a termine e ci è riuscito solo a metà. I giudizi in puntata sono variegati, ma nessuno è rimasto particolarmente impressionato dal film di Ryan Coogler, che deve gestire la pesante eredità di Black Panther all'indomani della prematura scomparsa di Chadwick Boseman. Proseguiamo con il prequel di X - A Sexy Horror Story, in cui Ti West ci racconta l'origin story della killer interpretata da Mia Goth. Pearl ci porta nell'America rurale infestata dall'Influenza Spagnola, vista però attraverso un filtro in Technicolor che omaggia la golden age hollywoodiana. Un'operazione meno teorica del primo film, ma che piazza un secondo capitolo molto interessante di una saga horror che continua a sorprendere. L'ultimo film in scaletta è una commedia scandinava nerissima, che ci ricorda quanto sono bravi in quelle terre a mettere a disagio lo spettatore, qui costretto a seguire un personaggio detestabile in un tour de force nel narcisismo patologico. Chiudiamo poi con il ritorno della acclamata rubrica "Pllole...di cinema", in cui spendiamo qualche parola per parlare velocemente de Il piacere è tutto mio, Bros, My Old School, Speak No Evil, Skinkamarink e Last and First Men. Timestamp dei film in scaletta: [01:15] Black Panther: Wakanda Forever [30:00] Pearl [48:45] Sick of Myself F.D.

The Cube Critics review the documentary “My Old School” and the mockumentary “Honk For Jesus Save Your Soul.”
Filmmaker Jono McLeod has worked in a variety of roles both in front of, and behind the camera, for some of the biggest networks in Britain. His most recent project is a spectacular documentary called My Old School. My Old School reveals the truth behind one of the most incredible stories of the past 30 years, in which a 32 year old man tricked his way into a school in the suburbs of Glasgow, posing as a 16 year old pupil. Featuring interviews with his old classmates and teachers, it's a hilarious, thought provoking, engaging, unique and immensely entertaining docu-film, and it's in cinemas now. We discuss the intricacies of the story, and Jono's personal memories of what happened… Jono talks about his own school experience as a gay teenager trying to remain under the radar, and how that influenced his telling of the story… And we talk about Jono's career in general, plus his award winning short film 'Being Stavros'. And as always, there's plenty more. www.dontfretaboutdebt.net/blethered/ Contact: seanmcdonald.podcast@gmail.com Twitter: https://twitter.com/seanmcdonald01

This week Gordon Hayden and the team review HBO's Game of Thrones prequel series House of the Dragon, Marvel Studio's She Hulk, Prey and the documentary My Old School.
Host Felicity Beckett speaks to director Jono McLeod about his new film, My Old School, in cinemas now. The astonishing true story of Scotland's most notorious imposter. It's 1993 and 16 year old Brandon is the new kid in school. Soon he's top of the class, acing exams and even taking the lead in the school musical. He's the model pupil, until he's unmasked... In 1993, 16 year old Brandon Lee enrolled at Bearsden Academy, a secondary school in a well-to-do suburb of Glasgow, Scotland. What followed over the next two years would become the stuff of legends. Brandon had been privately tutored in Canada while he accompanied his mother, an opera diva, on tour before her tragic death. The preternaturally bright student surprised teachers by blazing toward his goal of entering medical school, displaying a wealth of knowledge beyond his years. Brandon found friends despite his initial awkwardness. He took bullied students under his wing, introduced classmates to seminal retro bands, and even starred in the school's production of South Pacific. But then his unbelievable secret was revealed. Filmmaker Jono McLeod returns to his old school for a nostalgic look at the strange but true story of his former classmate, Brandon Lee. Utilizing playful, period-specific animation, a pitch-perfect soundtrack, the memories of students and teachers, and the talents of Alan Cumming to bring the tale to life, My Old School offers more than one surprise along the way.

Just like Chorley FM, this week's episode of the Empire Podcast is Cumming in your ears as Chris Hewitt invites the great Alan Cumming — star of this week's excellent documentary, My Old School — into the podbooth for a fun chat about bagels, surnames, and why making this movie felt like fate. Chris also has a lovely chat with Secret Headquarters star, the wowtastic Owen Wilson, and his directors, Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman, which takes in everything from parental responsibility to how to make a toast. Then, in a two-pronged pod recorded in a couple of different locations this week (circumstances beyond our control, folks, but we're sure you'll agree the blend of both halves is utterly seamless), Chris is joined by Helen O'Hara and James Dyer to discuss the movie stunts they would love to perform themselves, the week's movie news, and review My Old School, Day Shift, and Secret Headquarters. And Chris tells a Kenneth Branagh-related story that may still be going on, it's hard to tell. Enjoy. Quick interview timestamps! Owen Wilson runs from 28:05.00 - 43:51.00 (approx.) and Alan Cumming can be found somewhere around 1:01:39.00 - 1:24:21.00

In 1993, a new student enrolled in Jono McLeod's class at Bearsden Academy -- Brandon Lee, a 16-year-old junior. Except that wasn't his real name, and he wasn't a teenager. Decades later, Jono McLeod unravels the story in his new documentary, "My Old School."
BEHIND THE LENS kicks off the last month of 'summer' with a lot of laughs as we take a look at two very different but very funny films thanks to GENEVIEVE ADAMS and JONO McLEOD. First up, our exclusive interview with writer/director JONO McLEOD talking about his hybrid live action-animated feature documentary MY OLD SCHOOL. It's long been said that truth is stranger than fiction and Jono shows us just that as he takes a trip back in time to his high school days as he and his former classmates reflect on one of the greatest frauds in Glasgow's history thanks to their classmate Brandon Lee. A wild story, a fun and entertaining film, and a very fun interview with Jono. Then writer/director/actor GENEVIEVE ADAMS joins us talking about her feature directorial debut – and in which she stars – the fun, funny, and sweet SIMCHAS AND SORROWS. The tale of Agnes, an atheist actress with 13 years of Catholic school to her credit, who attempts to convert to Judaism to marry the man she loves…and she's pregnant. The film is charming and you can't help but fall in love with Genevieve's Agnes. And once you hear what Genevieve has to say about drawing from her own life experiences and bringing that to life on the screen, you'll quickly put her on your cinematic radar. From script to casting to directing herself to finding those comedy beats, Genevieve tells all about SIMCHAS AND SORROWS. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

First ‘THE ‘GRAY MAN' When the CIA's top asset uncovers agency secrets, he triggers a global hunt by assassins set loose by his ex-colleague.. Starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana de Armas.

Then a super quick review of ‘NOPE' the new film from Jordan Peele about two siblings who run a California horse ranch that discover something wonderful and sinister in the skies.above. Starring Daniel Kaluuya and Keke Palmer.
Fact is indeed sometimes stranger than fiction, and such is the case with My Old School. Despite actor Alan Cumming's top billing, this is really a documentary—and not one about him. The actual subject agreed to be profiled, but declines to appear on camera, so Cumming stands in for him, lip-syncing the testimonial. Around 1993, a pupil known as Brandon Lee pulled an elaborate hoax at the Bearsden Academy in posh suburban Glasgow, Scotland, and created a media circus when he got busted for it two years later. Filmmaker Jono McLeod, who attended Bearsden Academy with Brandon, assembles 30 former classmates and teachers to recount the events of the hoax. Today I'm joined by director Jono to discuss his film. Make sure you check it out in theatres on July 22nd If you would like to support the Following Films Podcast please go to anchor.fm/followingfilms/subscribe --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/followingfilms/support

Director Jono McLeod's stranger-than-fiction documentary My Old School tells the story of his former classmate, Brandon Lee. In 1993, a new kid joined Jono McLeod's high school class at Bearsden Academy in Glasgow, Scotland. 16-year-old Brandon claimed to have been privately tutored in Canada and was incredibly smart, getting great grades and setting his sights on going to medical school. He befriended several of his classmates and became quite popular, even starring in the school play. But two years later, it was discovered that Brandon was not everything he appeared to be, and his secret identity became a national scandal in Scotland. Jono had regaled friends with the tale of Brandon Lee and his old school for years before he decided it would make a good documentary subject. Brandon consented to being interviewed for the movie, but on the condition that he was not shown. Jono decided to use an actor to stand in for the real Brandon Lee and have the actor lip synch Brandon's actual words. Years before, Alan Cumming was slated to star in a fictionalized film about Brandon Lee, but the movie had fallen through. Fortunately, Jono is also friends with Cumming, so he asked him if he would like to be in the documentary, albeit without using his own voice. Cumming was happy to accept the challenge and they used a method of reverse-ADR to record his lip synch of Brandon's words with perfect accuracy. For My Old School, Jono re-built his old classroom as a set for the interviews and invited his former high school classmates to participate. He knew he wanted to tell the story from the perspective of the people who were there and for My Old School to have a sense of humor and lightness to it, so Jono decided to use animation sequences for depicting any flashback scenes. He wanted to evoke the look of popular animation styles from high school shows of the 1990's and he used the popular MTV series Daria as an inspiration. My Old School premiered at the Sundance 2022 Film Festival and is seeking sales and distribution.

This is the 3rd episode Chris Ryan has been on, and we’ve only done 5 episodes. What’s up with that? Simple. He’s a great co-host and we have a lot of fun together - as it should be. Chris owns Ryan Video Productions. As he says on his website, “Let’s do some good work together!” He means it, as evidence by his client testimonials and the people I’ve talked to who’ve used his services. Chris and I share a love for music. We’ve both been involved in the seen for years. While Chris worked in a radio station DJ’n several shows, I started behind a mic producing podcasts before it was called podcasting. Back then, it was often called “audio blogging.” So yes, this episode is largely dominated by talking about the musicians, bands, and experiences we’ve had along the way. But don’t worry, Chris will let you know how best to prepare for your video shoot BEFORE you hire the videographer. Topics, Mentions, and Links to All The Music Chris listened to Spotify’s “Discover Weekly” and discovered Thomas Dolby’s album “Flat Earth.” The Flat Earth is the second album by Thomas Dolby. It was released in February 1984, peaking at #14 on the UK Albums Chart. The first single from the album was "Hyperactive!", which peaked at #17 in the UK Singles Chart, making it Dolby's highest-charting single in his home country. ~ Wikipedia.

They are, for me, the All Time Greatest Artists ( with the Beatles and Bob... ). It is impossible to describe the Steely Dan's Style... It sounds very californian but with a New Yorker touch'.... These 3 albums sounds very 70' with very good quality of recording. Welcome in the 70's wild side music... The Pre-Dan Era Donald Fagen is born in Passaic, New Jersey on January 10, 1948. Walter Becker is born in New York City on February 20, 1950. They both grew up as disaffected suburban youths, going to school in the daytime and listening to the music of their idols Charlie Parker, Duke Ellington and John Coltrane at night. They both feel an affinity with the "Jazz Life." Donald Fagen meets Walter Becker at Bard College in Annandale-On Hudson, New York in 1967. Fagen, a piano player, hears someone playing blues guitar in a student lounge and decides he must introduce himself. He discovers Becker playing a red Epiphone guitar and finds that they share the same interests in music and ironic senses of humor. A partnership is born. They form several college bands including "The Leather Canary" (which fellow Bard student Chevy Chase sat in with a couple of times) and "The Don Fagen Trio." Fagen and Becker also start to write songs together. Fagen graduates Bard in 1969 with an English degree. Becker also leaves Annandale. The two of them move to Brooklyn, New York and decide to peddle their songs at the famous Brill Building in Manhattan. They don't meet with much success, but they make an important early connection with Kenny Vance of Jay and the Americans. Vance helps them record some demos of their early material and gets them some odd jobs including doing the soundtrack for the low-budget Richard Pryor film "You Gotta Walk It Like You Talk It." Vance also gets Becker and Fagen gigs as back-up musicians on Jay and the Americans' 1970-71 tour. Jay Black disaffectionately labels Donald and Walter as "Starkweather and Manson." Fagen and Becker also meet another aspiring producer, Gary Katz, in New York. Shortly afterwards, Katz gets a job as staff producer at ABC Records in Los Angeles and also secures two staff songwriter positions for Fagen and Becker. With the hopes of making it big as songwriters, Donald and Walter move to L.A. in November 1971. The Early Steely Dan Era After realizing that the songs they were writing were too sophisticated for the other artists on the ABC roster (Three Dog Night, Dusty Springfield), Donald and Walter secretly begin to put together their own band with Gary Katz as their producer. They enlist Denny Dias as a guitarist, whom Becker and Fagen had met earlier in New York through an advertisement Dias placed in "The Village Voice" newspaper, reading "Looking for keyboardist and bassist. Must have jazz chops!" Dias flies out to the west coast to help the boys put together the band. "Can't Buy A Thrill" With Fagen on keyboards and vocals and Becker on bass, they decide to sign up guitarist Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and drummer Jim Hodder. With the core band recruited, Donald and Walter need a name for their group. Since both of them were avid readers of 1950's "Beat" literature, they decided to name the band "Steely Dan" after a dildo in William Burroughs' "Naked Lunch." The band begins rehearsing after work in a cramped, abandoned office in the ABC building and begins recording with Roger (The Immortal) Nichols, a former nuclear engineer, as their recording engineer, a relationship that continues to this day. Since Fagen was uncomfortable as the lead singer, they also decided to sign up vocalist David Palmer as the front man. Since Palmer's vocal style didn't convey the attitude that Becker and Fagen wanted for most of the songs, and they also needed to finish the album, Donald reluctantly sang lead vocals on all but three songs on their debut album, which they named "Can't Buy A Thrill." An interesting portent of things to come, however, is the credited use of outside studio musicians such as Elliot Randall and Jerome Richardson on several solos. The album is released in October 1972 without much fanfare, but surprises everyone by spawning a runaway hit "Do It Again" which reaches #6 on the charts. ABC pressures the band to do a quick tour and Becker and Fagen reluctantly acquiesce. A second hit "Reelin' In The Years" emerges and reaches #11 on the charts. "Can't Buy A Thrill" becomes a gold record and peaks at #17 on the charts. As the band begins to record their next album, Fagen takes over on all lead vocals and David Palmer leaves the group. "Countdown to Ecstasy" Following the surprising commercial success of "Can't Buy a Thrill", Steely Dan come under tremendous pressure from ABC Records to continue touring to promote the album, while at the same time recording a new one. Consequently, the songs for their second album are hurriedly recorded in between tour stops during 1973. Fagen and Becker later said this gave the recorded songs a live kind of feel, since they were in the studio with basically their touring band. The songs that become the "Countdown to Ecstasy" album, released in July 1973, thus are more stretched-out, as they are in the live settings of the time. "Showbiz Kids" is the first single to be released, and despite Rick Derringer's amazing slide guitar work, it only reaches #61 on the charts. It was speculated later that the expletive used in the song did not popularize it with radio program directors. "My Old School", an homage to their days at Bard, also does not fare well as a single and peaks at #63. Despite the lack of a hit single, "Countdown" receives excellent reviews and spawns such radio favorites as "Bodhisattva" and "My Old School", with the latter becoming a classic encore sing-along for their live shows in the 90's. "Pretzel Logic" Under ABC's pressure to produce more hit singles, Fagen and Becker write some shorter songs for their next album "Pretzel Logic." This album is released in March, 1974 and spawns their biggest hit, "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" which reaches #3 in March 1974. Becker and Fagen are expanding on their practice of bringing in other studio musicians as they increasingly find the core band unable to achieve the sound they want on all of their songs. One of the session men is Jeff Porcaro and a long and fruitful relationship with Fagen and Becker begins. A second tour is arranged including Porcaro as second drummer, a new Katz discovery Michael McDonald on back-up vocals and keyboards, and another vocalist Royce Jones (Ambrosia). While this band was musically superior to the one on the first tour, the rigors of tour travel and opening for heavy metal bands is not to Fagen and Becker's liking. After a July 4, 1974 show at the Santa Monica Civic Center in California, they swear off touring for the immediate future and decide to focus on writing and recording. This prompts Baxter, who loves the road life, to leave and join the Doobie Brothers. Jim Hodder also quits as "Pretzel Logic" goes gold and reaches #8 on the charts. > From Wikipedia
