Frank and Jonathan rate Andor's Season-2 finale a near-perfect 9/10, debate the brand-new Superman trailer, and break down Marvel's first Ironheart footage. They also react to Fortnite's glitchy AI Darth Vader and sit down with fantasy author Richard Sparks to explore his MMO-inspired series New Rock, New Role. If you crave deep-dive Star Wars analysis, fresh trailer reactions, and book recommendations, this episode is your ultimate geek catch-up. Timestamps & Topics Time Topic 00:00 Intro & episode roadmap 00:00:30 Richard Sparks teaser – New Rock, New Role 00:02:37 Capital Creative Showcase + listener feedback 00:03:41 Ironheart trailer analysis (Riri Williams, The Hood, Mephisto) 00:08:25 Tech vs. mysticism in Ironheart 00:10:00 Superman trailer deep-dive (Lois interview, DCU world-building) 00:17:21 Andor Season-2 spoiler review begins 00:25:40 Cassian meets K-2SO – humor & stakes 00:26:44 Trauma, sacrifice, and everyday rebels 00:29:24 Final ratings: Andor gets a 9/10 00:31:02 News flash: Jessica Jones, Punisher, Ralph Fiennes in Hunger Games 00:35:12 Avatar: The Last Airbender movie delay 00:38:48 Netflix's Gears of War movie & tone worries 00:42:43 Thor 5 rumor—Chris Hemsworth wants a darker tone 00:44:47 AI Darth Vader glitch in Fortnite — ethics & chaos 00:50:01 Feature interview: Author Richard Sparks 01:25:44 Around-the-network updates & Jonathan's watch-list 01:30:30 Weekly recommendations & sign-off Key Takeaways Andor sets a new Star Wars benchmark with mature politics, everyday-hero focus, and a finale that bridges perfectly into Rogue One. Ironheart promises a scrappy, community-driven story that contrasts Tony Stark's privilege with Riri Williams' Chicago roots. The new Superman trailer revives the Christopher Reeve optimism while dropping viewers into a fully populated DCU. AI voice clones (like Fortnite's Darth Vader) are hype-worthy but need tighter safeguards before brands unleash them. Richard Sparks' New Rock series mixes MMO mechanics, 80s fantasy, and laugh-out-loud camaraderie—perfect for fans of Ready Player One and Willow. Memorable Quotes “Andor proves real rebellion relies on janitors jamming door locks, not just Jedi with lightsabers.” – Frank “Riri Williams is Iron Man if Tony grew up on the South Side and had to build a Mark I from junkyard scraps.” – Frank “AI Vader sounded amazing…until the Internet taught him four-letter words.” – Jonathan Call to Action Love the show?

Episode 507 - Richard Sparks - Richard Returns to Share His Next Project, to celebrate news about The Schoolmaster skit and Rowan Atkinson's creative licenseRichard SparksOne morning in 1979 I got a call from an understandably excited Rowan Atkinson.“John Cleese just called. He's asked me to be in his new charity show – and can I do The Schoolmaster?”Er, yes.I'd written The Schoolmaster for Rowan the previous year, for a revue at the Hampstead Theatre (Rowan with Elspeth Walker and Peter Wilson). John and his co-producer, Martin Lewis, had seen it; and a year later, Rowan and I were backstage at Her Majesty's Theatre, meeting John and other members of the cast of The Secret Policeman's Ball.Rowan went on stage an unknown, with his gown and clipboard and pen, and came off a star. The Schoolmaster became his signature piece, the encore of his live shows. Eventually, he got tired of doing the same old routine and wrote another (ruder) version, generously giving me half the royalties.By that time, I'd cut my teeth on various TV shows, from HTV (Wales) to ITV (Southern and Central) to the BBC. I'd also written some stage shows (reviews, original plays, and adaptations of Goldoni comedies), and done a lot of freelance script editing. In 1992, I was hired by Columbia Picture Television to work with Blake Hunter and Marty Cohan, the creators of Who's the Boss?. My wife and I moved with our young daughter to her parents (converted) garage and we've lived in Los Angeles since.I've written a number of libretti for operas, almost all for the LA Opera – some original pieces, some translations from German or Italian. My writing partner, the composer, Lee Holdridge, was – in a way – once G.R.R. Martin's ‘writing partner' in that he composed the scores for the TV series Beauty and the Beast, for which Martin was a script writer.I'd been a hard-core RPG gamer for years when the idea for these books just fell out of the sky one morning, and I started writing. I have hardly had a moment to log on to any game — I'm too busy exploring the New Rock stories as they unfold.My publisher, Caezik SF & Fantasy, is a company of enthusiasts who love these genres. I am delighted to join their family of authors, and to be working with their executive editor, Lezli, Robyn.Three sequels – New Rock New Realm, New Rock New Rules, and New Rock New Roads, have been completed and will be published in due course. I'm currently working on the fifth bookhttps://richardsparks.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca
Following our last episode with Richard Sparks on The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy, in which we must have mentioned The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy at least, ooh, I don't know, at least three times, and after which we lost radio contact with Brian Sexton after he was devoured by the Black Sinkhole of Sligo, we decided to plough on with the second half of the interview.So, on a tight schedule (Richard had tickets for the opera, meladdo) we delved into his debut novel, New Rock, New Role, an epic fantasy derived from Richard's own love of gaming, It's a funny and touching tale of finding purpose, friendship and adventure later in life, when all the signs tell that life may have finished dishing out adventures.This was pertinent to Richard as he wrote this novel, his first, in his seventies. So we talk about the convetions of gaming, the friendships you make, the conventions of fantasy and the comfort and community it brings. Elsewhere, Captain Halfmilkcarton gets the shock of his life when he's joined by an unexpected but remarkably familiar guest...

Looking for a page-turner of a book to get lost in? Tune in for an inspiring discussion with Richard Sparks on his new book New Rock New Role. Moments with Marianne airs in the Southern California area on KMET1490AM & 98.1 FM, an ABC Talk News Radio affiliate! Richard Sparks' writing credentials span the gamut of the entertainment world, from film and TV and books through lyrics for operas. He has been commissioned by the Los Angeles Opera and has completed translations/adaptations of classic operas. He has worked with such luminaries as Placido Domingo, Rowan Atkinson and the inimitable John Cleese of Monty Python and Fawlty Towers fame. Richard got his big break as a writer on "Not the Nine O'clock News”, (BBC TV), an irreverent take on the days affairs that featured anchors broadcasting from bed and the unique talents of Rowan Atkinson. One of Richard's biggest claims to fame is as the author of Atkinson's famous "Schoolmaster" routine, in which the future Mr. Beane puts a hilarious spin on attendance taking and discipline. https://richardsparks.com For more show information visit: www.MariannePestana.com#book #fiction #novel #newbook #bookclub #MomentsWithMarianne #fantasy #scifi

Hey, it's Alan Cross. For the next few weeks of the Podcast, we're diving deep into the Ongoing History of New Music Archives with a series called “The Top 100 Moments in New Rock”. In this ten-part series, we're going to look at the 100 most significant events in new rock history...some are obvious–you know, the big stuff that made the news...you can't ignore those. But we're also going to look at the small things that are at the root of some of the big things...it's a fascinating way to look at history and society and art. This originally aired 20 years ago in the spring of 2004…and we thought it might be fun to hear where we've been, how things used to be, and how much everything has changed since. This is Part 10, and the final episode in the series. We hope you enjoy this look back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Greg catches us up on his week and then fills us in on Kendrick Lamar's Juneteenth Concert. Officially called ‘The Pop Out - Ken & Friends,' the show has been described as a victory lap that united Los Angeles. Lamar's friends ended up being Dr. Dre, YG, Tyler, the Creator, Roddy Rich, Schoolboy Q, Steve Lacy, and others. Reports also referenced a large attendance by celebrities, athletes, and both members of the Bloods and the Crips. Aside from joining with the crowd to celebrate his victory in his Drake beef, Lamar focused his message on unity and it seems to have resonated. It is already being called one of the biggest moments in hip hop history and Snoop has declared Kendrick Lamar the West Coast King.Song: Kendrick Lamar - “Not Like Us (Juneteenth Live)”Jay brings us some new rock songs this week, curated in the Classic Rock section of Loudersound.com. The guys give their opinions on ‘the best new rock songs you need to hear right now.'Songs:iNi Kamoze, Salaam Remi - “Here Comes The Hotstepper”Massive Wagons - “Missing On TV”Bones UK - “Bikinis”Orange Goblin - “The Fire At The Centre Of The Earth Is Mine”Mr Big - “Up On You“Finally, Nick breaks the news that our end credit music generation provider, Suno.ai, is being sued alongside Udio by the RIAA & all four major record labels for copyright infringement. The AI music generation services are being accused of plagiarizing unlicensed music digested and fed into the AI models. Suno CEO claims they refused discussing the matter and Udio has a nice song in response to the accusations. It's all new ground for the courts and sure to be interesting to follow as both services claim the index of songs digested to be proprietary information.Song: Sam Evian - “Wild Days”

All those things are important, but they don't even begin to tell half the story. To understand history, any kind of history is to also look at the little moments You know what I'm talking about...tiny, boring events and decisions that seemed completely innocuous and unimportant–or even meaningless–when they happened, yet eventually the consequences proved to be unbelievably huge.

The Milwaukee Bucks lost their fourth consecutive game on Sunday night, immediately surrendering a halftime lead they held over the New York Knicks and getting dominated late by role players with Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo on the court after Khris Middleton left in the first half with “mouth trauma.” Ti Windisch and Rohan Katti recorded right after the game and went through it together, yelling about how bad the Bucks have become and trying to pinpoint exactly how they've reached this point and if there's any hope to salvage the season. They also discussed if the Dame trade was a mistake (with hindsight, not in the moment) and more unfun talking points.
