Podcasts about Nice Guys

Shane Black (Lethal Weapon, The Nice Guys)  Jim Herzfeld (Meet The Parents/Fockers), Fred Dekker (Preditor), & David Silverman (The Simpsons) reminisce about their college hangout that became the social group that supported their life and art for the rest of their lives.  They describe a house full of UCLA film nerds with a 24 hour open house policy.  It was young guys finding themselves and their drive and their fun by making a scene in the early 1980's. Movie watching, game playing, movie making, and joking around led to a group of people that has made some of the biggest films of the last 30 years.  Bio: JIM HERZFELD is an American film and television screenwriter who has also done work as a television producer. Herzfeld graduated from UCLA's School of Theater, Film and Television (TFT) and his earliest TV credit – on the ground breaking “It's Garry Shandling's Show” -- was followed by almost 10 years of writing and producing episodes on dozens of sitcom staffs, including the Fox TV classic "Married... With Children." Herzfeld's earliest feature film work was a writing credit on the cult comedy “Tapeheads“ in 1988. His most successful work was writing the screenplay for the 2000 film” Meet the Parents” as well as writing the story and screenplay for its 2004 sequel “Meet the Fockers.” To date, both those films remain on the list of the 20 Highest Grossest Comedies. More recently, in 2015 his screenplay for “Meet the Parents” was selected by the Writer's Guild of America's as one of the “101 Funniest Screenplays” of all time. Herzfeld was also the writer of the canceled Circle 7 Animation version of Toy Story 3 and has done countless punch-up and rewrites on dozens of big budget comedies and animated films for virtually every major studio.  Herzfeld has also guest lectured about screenwriting at several major universities, including NYU, UCLA and AFI along with appearing on writer panels at various film festivals, most notably the Austin Film Festival where Jim was a judge for their Comedy Screenplay Competition. Currently, Herzfeld continues to write and develop comedy screenplays and recently became an advisor for Scripthop, a software startup focused on revolutionizing how screenplays are both presented and circulated throughout the entertainment industry. FRED DEKKER - Pursuing a movie career, he moved to Los Angeles where his fledgling screenwriting efforts led to a Hollywood agent and a job writing Godzilla: King of the Monsters for director Steve Miner. Although the film went unproduced, Dekker provided the story for Miner's 1985 horror-comedy House, starring William Katt (screenplay by Ethan Wiley). The film was recognized by the Fantasporto and the Avoriaz Film Festivals, and spawned several sequels. Dekker made his directorial debut with Night of the Creeps, an homage to B-movies that eventually developed a devoted cult following. He went on to direct another cult favorite, The Monster Squad, co-written with his UCLA friend Shane Black. He subsequently wrote five episodes of Tales From The Crypt, including the first episode, directed by Robert Zemeckis. In 1991, Dekker conceived the Denzel Washington starrer Ricochet and the spy spoof If Looks Could Kill, both for Warner Bros. He then returned to the director's chair for the third RoboCop film, co-written with comic book legend Frank Miller. As a script doctor, Dekker made uncredited contributions to films including Titan A.E. and Lethal Weapon 4. He then served as Consulting Producer and wrote three episodes of Star Trek: Enterprise. In 2015, he reteamed with Shane Black on a western TV pilot for Amazon Studios, entitled Edge. The two went on to co-write the 2018 release The Predator, which Black also directed. Dekker's international awards include the Silver Raven from the Brussels International Festival of Fantasy Film; the Estrella de Fantastico Award from the 2019 Bilbao Fantasy Film Festival; and the 2024 Honorary Time Machine Award (Premi Màquina del Temps) at the Sitges Film Festival for his contributions to horror and fantasy cinema. He is currently developing a true crime limited series for Amazon based on a murder which occurred in his hometown.SHANE BLACK is a writer/director whose writing credits include such films as Lethal Weapon, The Last Boy Scout, The Long Kiss Goodnight and The Monster Squad.  He began as a director in 2005 with Kiss Kiss Bang Bang and receives increasingly strident sequel requests for 2016's The Nice Guys.  He is currently writing a spec original and trying to lose some weight by New Years'.  Not that he's fat -- he's just old, and being careful.DAVID SILVERMAN After graduating from UCLA in 1983, David Silverman worked as a freelance illustrator and animator until, in 1987, he landed a job animating on The Tracey Ullman Show — where The Simpsons began. Animating on all 48 shorts led to David directing the first shows of The Simpsons. Starting with the Christmas Special in December 1989, and then the premiere episode the following month, David soon became Supervising Animation Director and a producer on The Simpsons. All told, he has directed 24 episodes and has won 4 Emmys along the way.  When no one was looking, David snuck away from The Simpsons to work at DreamWorks (The Road to El Dorado – co-director), Pixar (Monsters, Inc. – co-director), and Blue Sky (Ice Age, Robots – writing and boarding). But, he came back to the show full-time at the end of 2003 and directed The Simpsons Movie. In 2012, David directed and co-wrote the short film The Longest Daycare about Maggie Simpson, which earned him an Academy Award nomination.And since the Disney acquisition of The Simpsons (via the purchase of Fox), David has directed 10 Simpsons shorts especially for Disney+, as well as several promotional pieces.Editing Notes: There are many verbal cuts on the show we directed to Dan. Also after the show, Shane Black emailed and ask we cut out this.  I say “It's nice your place was a rape free environment” and Shane says something like: “But not rape free for guys,”. He wants his comment cut.

Ever felt like kindness is your superpower, yet your relationship still feels flat, tense, or strangely distant? Michael goes solo to unpack the quiet patterns that so many men mistake for love: covert contracts, conflict avoidance, and the endless chase for approval that looks like connection but drains desire. Through candid personal stories and clear frameworks, he lays out why these strategies once kept you safe, why they now sabotage intimacy, and how to trade people pleasing for honest, grounded presence.We explore the five core behaviours that silently erode trust: giving with hidden expectations, smoothing over every disagreement, seeking validation instead of being known, suppressing direction out of fear of being controlling, and overgiving that creates pressure rather than warmth. You'll hear what happens inside a partnership when needs go unnamed, why “I'm fine” breaks trust, and how a lack of clear leadership forces your partner into roles she never wanted. Michael shows how authenticity and simple, steady direction can restore polarity, safety, and attraction.Expect practical steps you can use today: naming a need without defensiveness, inviting healthy conflict without escalation, offering plans with room for choice, and giving without a ledger. If phrases like “I say yes when I mean no” or “I give so much and feel unseen” ring true, this conversation offers a path back to truth, clarity, and real closeness.

We have a new F1 World Champion, Lando Norris. He held his nerve in Abu Dhabi to finish on the podium, which is all he needed to do to become one of only 35 drivers in history to win the F1 World Championship.  It's a proud moment for Autosport too, because in 2016 Lando won the prestigious Autosport BRDC Young Driver Award. The prize was his first test in an F1 car – a McLaren - the following year, his first step on the F1 ladder. Norris follows Jenson Button as the second Young Driver Award winner to become F1 World Champion.  James Allen wraps up Abu Dhabi and closes the cycle on our Season in Numbers series. At each quarter stage of the season we have looked at the underlying numbers to spot trends and learn more about what's really been going on.  Joining James in the studios are Autosport F1 writers Jake Boxhall Legge and Ronald Vording.  Fan Voting for the 38th Autosport Awards is open.

On this week's Born to Watch, the boys dive headfirst into one of the great underappreciated modern buddy cop films with their "The Nice Guys" (2016) Review. Every so often, a newer movie sneaks into the sacred eighties and nineties space, demanding a full BTW breakdown, and this Shane Black masterpiece absolutely earns its spot. With Russell Crowe as the grizzled enforcer Jackson Healy and Ryan Gosling delivering one of the funniest performances of his career as hopeless private eye Holland March, this film feels like it could have been made in 1987 and left on a dusty VHS shelf for us to rediscover.Set in a grimy, neon-soaked 1977 Los Angeles, The Nice Guys blends noir, slapstick, mystery, porn conspiracies, corruption, and one of the great chemistry pairings of the last decade. As Whitey says, this flick is a chuckle fest. Not belly laughs all the way through, but constant, rolling moments of Gosling brilliance. From falling off balconies while holding a drink, to screaming in a toilet cubicle mid-assassination attempt, to the endless stream of quotable lines, Gosling proves he might be one of the most underrated comedic actors working today.The episode kicks off with the BTW boys returning to their familiar chaos, discussing missed recording sessions, RSI from too much… research, yacht rock, power ballads, and the Black Sorrows ruining Gow's weekend. Once the dust settles, the team dives deep into first watches, overs and unders, cinema memories, and how this movie became a cult favourite despite its disappointing box-office returns. Whitey even reveals he attended one of those old radio promo premieres and laughed himself stupid the entire time.Gow delivers a huge research effort, running through the Shane Black universe, returning stars Kim Basinger and Russell Crowe (who he argues could literally be Bud White 20 years later), and a brilliant breakdown of Gosling's Mickey Mouse Club origins, career breakout roles, and upcoming work in the new Star Wars project, Star Fighter. The boys also praise the incredible Angourie Rice, who holds her own with two Hollywood heavyweights and often steals the film.They unpack the bad reviews (including one from a critic who somehow thinks Crowe and Gosling have no chemistry), explode with joy over the bowling alley toilet scene, analyse the poor neighbour shot by Blueface, and debate how on earth police didn't arrive after John Boy unleashed the loudest gunfight in seventies LA history.There is the usual dose of Snorbs Report chaos, including an award-winning muff dive scene from "Below Her Mouth", some questionable memories from Morgz in London, references to Buck Rogers, pool tugging, and a Rick's Leash callback that nearly kills the room again. The Spotify Wrapped thanks, the voicemail from the foreign correspondent, and the pure BTW banter make this episode an all-timer.If you love this movie, you'll love this episode. If you've never seen The Nice Guys, this will send you straight to your couch to fix that mistake.Seen The Nice Guys? Think Gosling should only do comedy from now on? Slide into our socials and tell us your favourite quote. And if you haven't watched it yet, pause this episode, fix that, and then come back for the full Born to Watch treatment. #TheNiceGuys #BornToWatch #RyanGosling #RussellCrowe #ShaneBlack #MoviePodcast #BuddyCopMovies #FilmReview #CultClassics #AussiePodcasts

If you've ever been told to “serve her more… sacrifice harder… be the good Christian man” — and yet your wife somehow got colder, less responsive, and less attracted — this episode is going to feel like a divine ambush.Because the truth is brutal:Most Christian husbands are following a model of masculinity God never designed for them. A model that strips you of desire, identity, and confidence… and turns you into a hovering, panting puppy dog instead of a grounded, fire-filled man of the Kingdom.Today I'm exposing the Nice Guy Lie — the hidden teaching in church culture that unintentionally kills masculine polarity. We're talking resurrecting your God-given desire, reclaiming your worth, breaking free from people-pleasing, and stepping into the strength that awakens your wife's attraction again.This episode is not soft. It's not “churchy.”It's battle-tested truth from the trenches of my own marriage.You don't have to keep living small. You were made for fire, for desire, for authority — and your marriage is begging for that version of you to show up.

Championship Week is here — but it's not what it used to be.The Iowa Nice Guy breaks down the absurdity of modern collegefootball, including:• Why conference championships no longer matter• Coaches leaving playoff teams mid-run• The ACC disaster scenario• BYU's bizarre playoff path• Indiana vs Ohio State meaning absolutely nothing• Iowa's offensive resurrection under Tim Lester• Nebraska being trapped in eternal mediocrity• Iowa State fans forgetting the trauma of the past

What happens when you're addicted to violence itself? John Graham shipped out on a freighter at 16, made the first ascent of Denali's North Wall at 20 (never repeated), and faced death dozens times—loving every minute. By 28, nothing mattered except his next dangerous adventure. Then came Vietnam. Setting up a firing squad during the 1971 Easter Offensive in Hue, ordering deaths of teenagers, John broke down weeping. Through encounter groups, he discovered the compassionate man beneath his "John Wayne image." At the UN, he used those warrior qualities for good—risking his career to help end apartheid. For 40 years with the Giraffe Heroes Project, he's inspired courage worldwide.

In this episode, we dig into the idea that the Antichrist might not show up as some dark, terrifying figure, but instead as a really nice guy. The article we're discussing suggests he'll look peaceful, tolerant, reasonable, and even compassionate. In other words, the kind of leader most people would cheer for. We talk about why that kind of "niceness" can actually be the most dangerous form of deception. Modern culture often tells us that being a good person just means being kind, promoting unity, and making life comfortable, but the article points out that goodness without God slowly pushes real spiritual life out of the picture. We get into how our culture's obsession with progress, peace, and material well-being makes it easy to confuse charm with truth. We also look at what the Church Fathers say about the Antichrist's personality: that he'll win people over with flattery and a gentle demeanor before revealing what he's really after. In short, this is a conversation about discernment: how to recognize the difference between true goodness and a polished counterfeit, especially in a world that loves a friendly face.

Get free access to my Nice Guy Recovery & Confidence Building course here: https://bit.ly/brojo_soundcloud Should you stay in your relationship, or is it really time to leave? Most people get stuck in the same painful dilemma: Is this just a rough patch we need to push through, or is this a sign the relationship is actually wrong for me? In this deep-dive video, I break down the REAL difference between a temporary valley and a fundamental incompatibility. We'll look at commitment vs. promises, good loyalty vs. blind loyalty, and why long-term relationships naturally fluctuate between peaks and dips. You'll also learn: • Why attraction to someone else does NOT automatically mean your relationship is broken • The hidden role of avoidant attachment, Nice Guy syndrome, and validation-seeking • How to tell whether the problem is you, them, or the dynamic between you • Why the “honeymoon feeling” always fades — even with the right person • The questions you MUST answer before you even consider leaving • The biggest mistakes people make when comparing their partner to a new crush • How to know when staying is healthy… and when leaving is the only sane choice If you've ever wondered “Should I stay or go?”, this video will give you the clearest framework you've ever had for making that decision — without guilt, panic, or fantasy thinking.

073 Only recently have both women and men been able to liberate themselves from the yoke of patriarchal norms.  The transition to a more egalitarian, post modern society in the last 50 years also meant a rejection of historical narratives about manhood, including what some mythological traditions call the masculine spirit.  In the absence of this archetypal energy, many men languish and struggle with a deep insecurity about their place in a fast changing world.While the media focuses on caricatures of alpha males and examples of ‘toxic masculinity', the shadow side of men, especially well intentioned and conscious men, more often appears in the form of the ‘nice guy'.  Dr Robert Glover first coined the term ‘nice guy syndrome' to describe a complex of self defeating traits, including passivity, excessive people pleasing, covert manipulation and weak personal boundaries. Paradoxically, nice guys rarely get what they truly want from relationships or life by being nice.In this episode of Awake In Relationship I speak with Jason Lange, men's embodiment coach, group leader and podcaster, about men's shadow work to recover the generative power of the masculine spirit.  In this conversation we discuss the origins of nice guy syndrome, it presentation in intimate relationships and creating transformative spaces for men to be seen and supported to rise to the challenge of modern masculinity.Follow Awake In Relationship on Instagram and LinkedinIf you have been loving what you are hearing on AIR  please rate, review and subscribe to get the latest content fresh to your device.  Sign up for our newsletter at awakeinrelationship.com to learn about upcoming programs and events.Do you have suggestions for guests or feedback on the show?  Send us an email at awakeinrelationshippodcast@gmail.com

For something that we do every single day, and something that has the power to change every aspect of our life, we sure don't focus on, train, or develop it. And, that thing is conversation. Nothing great ever happened in your life without, first, a conversation – no promotions, no jobs, no clients, no dates, nothing. My guest today, Payam Pakmanesh (known as "The Convo Guy") is here to explain why and, more importantly, how we can build and develop our ability to communicate more effectively. We cover the proper principles of communication, Adlerian Psychology and how it helps you focus on what you can control, the "Zoom Flow" model for deeper connection, how to make yourself more approachable, and becoming aware of how others perceive you.

Let me know your thoughts on the show and what topic you would like me to discuss next.The quiet ache of a cold marriage rarely starts in the bedroom. It starts when a man trades identity for titles, chases approval, and forgets how to lead himself. We sit down with Ralph Brewer—best-selling author of The Dead Bedroom Fix and founder of Help For Men—to cut through noise and name what actually rebuilds connection: self-worth, boundaries, and a steady, values-led presence.Ralph shares his own rock-bottom divorce story and the years-long rebuild that followed, then maps the most common patterns he sees in men: anxious attachment, Nice Guy tendencies, and a belief that effort alone earns intimacy. We break down why the honeymoon fades, why scorekeeping kills desire, and how leadership works without macho bluster—making decisions, setting tone, and responding to feedback without getting defensive. You'll hear why “get jacked and she'll want you” is a half-truth at best, and why deep work on identity beats cosmetic fixes every time.If you've felt like a stranger in your own home, this is a clear path forward. Define your values beyond titles. Lead yourself daily. Build alliances that keep you honest. From there, intimacy—emotional and physical—has a chance to grow again, or you'll find the strength for a clean break with your self-respect intact.Key moments in this episode:02:02 Guest Introduction: Ralph Brewer 06:36 Understanding the Dead Bedroom Phenomenon15:02 Addressing Childhood Influences on Adult Relationships20:54 The Importance of Men's Work23:34 Understanding Men's Ignorance and Codependency27:52 The Role of Community in Men's Healing32:37 The Never-Ending Process of Healing34:26 The Power of Community and Mentorship37:47 Final Thoughts and Call to ActionHow to reach Ralph:Website: https://helpformen.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/realhelpformen/IG: https://www.instagram.com/realhelpformenYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@realhelpformenPodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/help-for-men/id1759966446Gifts: https://helpformen.com/revolutionarymanSupport the showThanks for listening to the Revolutionary Man Podcast.

Week 11: When billionaires fight over your football, Iowa finds an offense, and Nebraska fans find acceptance. The Iowa Nice Guy breaks down the week's chaos — from ESPN vs. YouTube to the rise (and fall) of Midwest dreams. Topics include: The YouTube TV blackout war nobody asked for. Iowa's offense… yes, offense. BYU's shiny uniforms and dull playcalling. Important stretch at ISU. Nebraska's golden age of being “fine.” Sponsored by:Modelo — Brewed for those with a Fighting Spirit.

Why do so many relationships fall apart because one partner can't—or won't—connect emotionally? Why do men and women alike find themselves trapped in cycles of emotional immaturity, disconnection, and pain that lead to divorce? For many women, life with an emotionally unavailable or immature partner feels confusing and isolating. For single moms, the question becomes: How do I raise an emotionally healthy son when his father isn't modeling it? Yet men, too, often suffer in silence—many find themselves with emotionally unavailable or even abusive partners, unsure how to express their pain or find support. To unpack both sides of this issue, I'm joined by Jason M. Lange, a men's embodiment coach, group facilitator, certified No More Mr. Nice Guy coach, and evolutionary guide. Jason brings over a decade of experience helping men reconnect to their emotions, develop relational maturity, and transform the cultural conditioning that keeps them shut down.

In this conversation, Sathiya discusses the intertwined issues of corn addiction and Nice Guy Syndrome, particularly among Christian men. He explains how both issues stem from similar root causes, such as maternal wounds and a lack of emotional awareness. Sathiya emphasizes the importance of healing these wounds and building emotional awareness as key steps towards recovery. He also shares insights from his own journey and offers practical solutions, including inner child work and forgiveness, to help individuals overcome these challenges.   Know more about Sathiya's work: Get A Free Copy of The Last Relapse, Your Blueprint For Recovery Join Deep Clean Inner Circle - The Brotherhood You Neeed (+ get coached by Sathiya) For Less Than $2/day Submit Your Questions (Anonymously) To Be Answered On The Podcast Watch Sathiya on Youtube For More Content Like This   Chapters: (00:00) Understanding Corn Addiction and Nice Guy Syndrome (01:28) Exploring Nice Guy Syndrome (04:41) The Connection Between Maternal Wounds and Addictions (07:01) Healing and Solutions for Recovery

Send us a textDating doesn't need more tricks—it needs better fundamentals. We sit down with Sharp Game, the creator behind Love Can't Wait, to pull apart the universal relationship principles he learned while traveling the world in the Navy and coaching millions online. Across cultures and personalities, three forces keep showing up: grounded leadership, mutual respect, and a felt sense of safety that lets people be themselves. When those are present, dates are lighter, conversations are clearer, and attraction grows without posturing.Sharp Game also breaks down the myths that hold men back. Assuming an attractive woman has it “all figured out” keeps too many guys from saying hello. The “nice guy” problem isn't kindness—it's manipulation disguised as generosity, with early gifts and performative sweetness that don't match real character. We cover why many men benefit from marrying after 35. Finally, we explore why you should take words with a grain of salt and read consistency over declarations—people often soften truths to spare feelings, and interest shows up in behavior.If you found this conversation useful, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find the show.Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comic

In this powerful conversation, Coach Frank Rich sits down with Dr. Robert Glover, best-selling author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, for his second appearance on The Super Human Life podcast (first featured in Episode 64, March 2021).   Together they dive deep into the hidden struggles "Nice Guys" face around sexuality, shame, and intimacy and why so many men turn to pornography as a safe, controllable substitute for real connection.   Dr. Glover explains how internalized sexual shame, childhood conditioning, and cultural confusion about masculinity have left modern men disconnected from their true desires, emotionally isolated, and unable to build healthy, fulfilling relationships.   This episode exposes the root causes of Nice Guy behavior and gives men the tools to break free from guilt, fear, and avoidance—so they can reclaim their masculine confidence and experience real intimacy without shame.   Expect to Learn: Why 80% of Nice Guys struggle with sexuality and emotional intimacy   How sexual shame is internalized through childhood and social conditioning   Why many Nice Guys turn to pornography as a "safe escape" from real relationships   The hidden fear of women and rejection that keeps men stuck   How social media feeds instant validation and sexual stimulation loops   Why true intimacy requires risk, vulnerability, and self-honesty   The difference between being "nice" and being authentic   How to rebuild confidence and form deeper, healthier relationships   About Dr. Robert Glover: Dr. Robert Glover is a psychotherapist, speaker, and best-selling author of No More Mr. Nice Guy, a groundbreaking book that has helped millions of men worldwide overcome people-pleasing, approval-seeking, and passivity to live with more confidence, integrity, and authenticity.   Through his Nice Guy Recovery workshops, coaching programs, and podcast, Dr. Glover continues to challenge the modern narrative around masculinity—teaching men to embrace their sexuality, express their truth, and create meaningful, passionate connections in every area of life.   Learn more about Dr. Glover's work at drglover.com.   --- Connect with Frank and The Super Human Life on Social Media: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachfrankrich/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/584284948647477/   Website: http://www.thesuperhumanlifepodcast.com/tshlhome   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCjB4UrpxtNO2AFtDURMzoKQ  

Yup, this episode has it ALL! Even Doug's mom, Rosalee. He and JJ are going on a cruise with Rosalee and Ted, so if you want your fill of Doug, you'd better get it today, because you're not going to hear him for the next two weeks. I don't know what Strickland's gonna do, but I guess he'll figure something out. Probably at the very last minute, so don't be surprised if next week's episode isn't posted on time.

Building a UI in Python usually means choosing between "quick and limited" or "powerful and painful." What if you could write modern, component-based web apps in pure Python and still keep full control? NiceGUI, pronounced "Nice Guy" sits on FastAPI with a Vue/Quasar front end, gives you real components, live updates over websockets, and it's running in production at Zauberzeug, a German robotic company. On this episode, I'm talking with NiceGUI's creators, Rodja Trappe and Falko Schindler, about how it works, where it shines, and what's coming next. With version 3.0 releasing around the same time this episode comes out, we spend the end of the episode celebrating the 3.0 release.
