Bad Bunny, the Puerto Rican superstar Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, dominated headlines this week with his explosive Super Bowl LX halftime show on February 8 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California. According to ABC News, he brought Puerto Rican culture front and center, opening with "Tití Me Preguntó" amid a sugar cane field scene, then crashing through a market roof set for "BAILE INoLVIDABLE" and "NUEVAYoL." Dressed in an all-white jersey emblazoned with "Ocasio," he waved a Puerto Rican flag, handed a Grammy to a young boy on stage symbolizing immigrant dreams, and closed with fireworks during "DtMF."CBS News reports guest stars lit up the performance: Lady Gaga in a salsa twist on "Die with a Smile," Ricky Martin on "Lo Que Le Paso a Hawaii," plus Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Karol G, and Pedro Pascal. The setlist, per Business Insider, pulled from hits like "Yo Perreo Sola," "Safaera," "Party," "Monaco," "El Apagón," and tracks from his Grammy-winning album Debí Tirar Más Fotos, the first all-Spanish project to snag Album of the Year just a week prior.The show marked history as the first primarily Spanish-language halftime spectacle, sparking massive buzz. Apple Music data shows Bad Bunny listens spiked 7x post-show, with "DtMF," "BAILE INoLVIDABLE," and "Tití Me Preguntó" topping streams; lyrics views for "BAILE INoLVIDABLE" surged 119% in the US. It even featured a real wedding officiated onstage, as a Bad Bunny rep confirmed to the Associated Press.Reactions poured in. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell hailed him as one of the world's great artists, but President Trump blasted it on Truth Social as "absolutely terrible" and "disgusting," per CBS News, amid Bad Bunny's prior ICE critiques in his Grammy speech. Conservative group Turning Point USA countered with a Kid Rock stream.Social media and music sites buzz with his global impact, from Shazam surges to tour announcements like Barcelona dates in May. This performance cements Bad Bunny's reign, blending reggaeton, plena, and personal storytelling.Thanks for tuning in, listeners—come back next week for more.

Links to assorted local theater & book venues John Fisher: Artistic Director of Theatre Rhino John Fisher, Artistic Director of Theatre Rhino, and writer/dictor/actor in “Left Field,” which runs at Theatre Rhino from February 19th to March 15th , in conversation with Richard Wolinsky. Recorded February 4, 2026. Theatre Rhino is the longest running LGBTQ+ theatre company in America, and John Fisher has been its Artistic Director since 2002. His latest show, “Left Field” is about a gay man from San Francisco who, through a bizarre series of events, winds up as President of the United States. Written as a response to the Trump regime and its fascist agenda, “Left Field” is a comedy with serious overtones about a man who finds himself in the presidency with a completely opposite series of priorities. In this interview, John Fisher discusses the process of working on “Left Field,” and goes into detail about what an actor perceives on stage, and the changing Bay Area theatre audience. Todd Haynes: Award-winning Independent Filmmaker Todd Haynes, independent filmmaker, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded February 27, 2025. The director of ten feature length films, Todd Haynes is an independent film-maker with his roots in New Queer Cinema. After coming to the attention of the film community with his short film, Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story, in which the “actors” were Barbie Dolls, he achieved fame with his first feature, Poison, which told three stories in different ways, all of which commented on the AIDS epidemic. He followed that with the much-lauded Safe, and then moved on to mainstream success with the lush melodrama, Far from Heaven. His later films include Velvet Goldmine, focusing on the glam rock era, I'm Not There, in which several actors portrayed Bob Dylan, Carol, Dark Waters, Wonderstruck, and his latest film, May December(Netflix). His documentary, Velvet Underground, is available on Apple Plus. Along the way there was a miniseries, Mildred Pierce, starring Kate Winslet, on HBO (streaming on MAX). All his films are available streaming. Todd Haynes will soon be filming a gay romance, “El Noche,” with Pedro Pascal, in the coming months.

Description: Did Bad Bunny just "break the internet" or the Super Bowl? In this episode, we break down the most-talked-about moments from the Super Bowl LX halftime show, from the surprise Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin cameos to the "casita" party featuring Cardi B and Pedro Pascal. We dive into the mystery of why Bad Bunny deleted his entire Instagram presence immediately after the set and the significance of his "God bless América" shoutout that named countries across the entire continent. Plus, we react to Kylie Kelce's viral support and why fans are calling this the most "authentic" performance in NFL history.
This week, our hosts find reasonable parking rates at the intersection of love and money with Materialists (2025). Not everyone has realistic expectations when it comes to finding a good match, but Madison doesn't think it's too much to ask for a film's trailer to match its tone. Chelsea wholeheartedly believes people as rich as Pedro Pascal was in this flick should invest in some art for their cement walls, or at least an interior decorator. Starring Dakota Johnson and Chris Evans, this quest for love among New York's elite asks us to consider each of our values...and pray we're not morally bankrupt.Connect With UsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/loveatfirstscreening/Email: loveatfirstscreening@gmail.comProduction Hosts: Chelsea Ciccone and Madison HillMusic: Good StephArtwork: Chelsea CicconeSocial Media: Marissa CicconeAbout the ShowAn examination of classic tropes and iconic characters pits connoisseur against cynic—one romantic comedy at a time. The cinematic world of love and laughter had rom-com enthusiast Madison head over heels from the time Harry met Sally. For genre skeptic Chelsea, however, it's been a grueling enemies-to-lovers plot. In Love at First Screening, Madison introduces Chelsea to all the fan-favorite love stories she's never wanted to watch. One friend's passion might be the other's displeasure, but doesn't love conquer all? Tune in every other Wednesday to find out.

Highlights included opening with "Tití Me Preguntó," rooftop "Yo Perreo Sola" with A-list Latino stars, "Monaco" with violins, "El Apagón" addressing infrastructure issues, "Café Con Ron" for hemispheric unity, and closing "DTMF" amid fireworks and a field dance party.Stage design transformed the field into sugar-cane fields, a Puerto Rican vecindad with barber shop, liquor store, and casita replica—featuring tributes like palm trees, piragua carts, an empty chair for 3,000+ Hurricane Maria victims, power line structures, and jersey No. 64 honoring his mother's birth year. Memorable moments: a real wedding on stage, Grammy gifting to child actor Lincoln Fox symbolizing self-belief, direct camera message "Never stop believing in yourself," and final football/flags promoting "Together, we are America."Celebrity guests: Lady Gaga, Ricky Martin, Karol G, Cardi B, Pedro Pascal, Jessica Alba, Young Miko, Alix Earle, Ronald Acuña Jr., Dave Grutman.In contrast, Turning Point USA's "All-American" counter-show featuring Kid Rock peaked at ~6.1 million concurrent YouTube viewers (rising to 19.5 million by Monday), streamed exclusively due to licensing restrictions preventing X airing.Political reactions included President Trump's criticism calling it "absolutely terrible" for its Spanish lyrics and dancing. Experts praised it as a unifying, culturally inclusive statement elevating Latino representation.Bad Bunny earned union scale pay (~$1,000/day), with NFL covering production (380 "grass"-dressed performers recreating landscapes under field limits).Analytic Dreamz examines the performance's cultural significance, viewership dominance, symbolic elements, and broader implications for Latin music's mainstream breakthrough and political discourse in entertainment.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/analytic-dreamz-notorious-mass-effect/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

On this episode of Cinema D'Amore, Chuck and Justin dive into Ari Aster's Eddington, a COVID-era small-town pressure cooker where civic order, online hysteria, and personal grievance collide. What begins as a grounded portrait of pandemic anxiety gradually mutates into something far more unstable… and violent. They break down Joaquin Phoenix's deliberately abrasive sheriff, Pedro Pascal's smooth but slippery mayoral rival, and how misinformation, social media performance, and moral absolutism rot the town from the inside out. The conversation zeroes in on Aster's tonal bait-and-switch, the film's shocking final act, and the bleak emotional fallout that refuses easy catharsis. Love it or hate it, Eddington demands a reaction, and Chuck and Justin don't dodge the mess.

We went in expecting a messy anthology and came out with a genuinely original love letter to Oakland, 1987 — four stories that start as separate vibes and then click together in the final act like a mixtape that suddenly makes sense.The setup is pure mood: people spilling out of a cinema after The Lost Boys, a bright green “something in the air” glow hanging over the city, and a pulpy, comic-book style that flirts with Sin City / Scott Pilgrim energy. It's stylish, funny, and—when it wants to be—ferociously violent.What we cover in the episodeThe anthology structure: four chapters that interconnect and payoff later, with Oakland culture (music, venues, street energy) doing most of the heavy lifting.Chapter 1: “Strength in Numbers – The Gilman Strikes Back” A straight-edge punk club gets terrorised by Nazi skinheads… and the punks decide they're not taking it anymore. We talk wish-fulfilment retribution, the myth-making tone, and the film's “300-style” brawl choreography.Chapter 2: “Don't Fight the Feeling” Two women from rap group Danger Zone get their shot at a battle with Too $hort — and turn it into an 80s feminist mic-drop. The ice-cream shop scene with a vile, racist cop is one of the most uncomfortable (and effective) bits in the whole film.Chapter 3: “Born to Mack” (Pedro Pascal) A one-last-job crime thread that flips into tragedy and revenge. We dig into how this segment links the others, and why it feels like the “spine” of the film.Chapter 4: “The Sleepy Floyd Story” A real NBA legend (29 points in a quarter) gets turned into a Kill Bill-style revenge myth — samurai swords, home-invasion carnage, and a final twist that goes full pulpy sci-fi.The big theme: modern, direct, and not subtle — Nazis can get in the bin. The film turns that into catharsis, and it lands.The verdictThis is a labour-of-love movie: inventive, ridiculously well-styled, packed with music, and shot so you can actually see what's happening in dark scenes (rare these days). It does get very bloody—especially the final stretch—but it's never boring.If you want an episode with hype, plot breakdown, and us arguing where the film crosses from “clever urban legend” into “absolute madness,” this one's for you.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

In Cosmosexuals: Screen Acting, Stardom, and Male Sex Appeal (U Texas Press, 2025), Dr. Mark Gallagher presents an examination of male screen sex appeal and the ways that race, ethnicity, and national origin combine with performance tools and film and television style to aid or inhibit actors' circulation on an increasingly global stage. Sex appeal is complicated, especially for screen actors. Looking good is not enough. Charisma and charm have to register when the camera rolls. And sexiness has to travel. Today's heartthrobs are expected to raise temperatures all around the world. Cosmosexuals theorizes male sex appeal as a form of capital in an age of international stardom. Screen scholar Dr. Gallagher assembles a diverse cast—Idris Elba, Pedro Pascal, Simu Liu, Ryan Gosling, and more—analyzing how each actor uses his appearance, voice, and movement to perform in ways that viewers across cultural divides register as sexually appealing. Cosmosexuals also explores the intersection of global sex appeal and exoticism in historical and contemporary contexts—from the malleable racial identities of Omar Sharif and Conrad Veidt to Mads Mikkelsen's “accented whiteness”—and assesses the barriers that confine nonwhite actors, in spite of their talent or celebrity. Far more than handsome faces and chiseled abs, male sex symbols emerge as laborers subject to disciplinary regimes steeped in patriarchy, racism, and structural inequity. As such, they have much to tell us about the economies of taste at work in the construction of screen masculinity and the terms of human desire. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In Cosmosexuals: Screen Acting, Stardom, and Male Sex Appeal (U Texas Press, 2025), Dr. Mark Gallagher presents an examination of male screen sex appeal and the ways that race, ethnicity, and national origin combine with performance tools and film and television style to aid or inhibit actors' circulation on an increasingly global stage. Sex appeal is complicated, especially for screen actors. Looking good is not enough. Charisma and charm have to register when the camera rolls. And sexiness has to travel. Today's heartthrobs are expected to raise temperatures all around the world. Cosmosexuals theorizes male sex appeal as a form of capital in an age of international stardom. Screen scholar Dr. Gallagher assembles a diverse cast—Idris Elba, Pedro Pascal, Simu Liu, Ryan Gosling, and more—analyzing how each actor uses his appearance, voice, and movement to perform in ways that viewers across cultural divides register as sexually appealing. Cosmosexuals also explores the intersection of global sex appeal and exoticism in historical and contemporary contexts—from the malleable racial identities of Omar Sharif and Conrad Veidt to Mads Mikkelsen's “accented whiteness”—and assesses the barriers that confine nonwhite actors, in spite of their talent or celebrity. Far more than handsome faces and chiseled abs, male sex symbols emerge as laborers subject to disciplinary regimes steeped in patriarchy, racism, and structural inequity. As such, they have much to tell us about the economies of taste at work in the construction of screen masculinity and the terms of human desire. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Is Stone Island actually worth the price? What lifestyle requires techwear? Is Timothee Chalamet overrated? Why does Lady Gaga feel less authentic than Charli XCX? What is gooning, and how did it end up in Harper's Bazaar? This week, Sol and Michael sit down with Shane O'Neill, writer for The Washington Post's twice-weekly pop culture newsletter "Seriously?," to unpack the weirdest corners of the internet and how they intersect with fashion, music, and modern masculinity.The trio explore the techwear vs. lifestyle debate, why Stone Island might be "a little more serious" than necessary, the complicated appeal of Timothee Chalamet vs. Pedro Pascal, and whether Madonna's Celebration Tour was genius or needed a creative director. Shane defends his take on why Charli XCX feels more genuine than Lady Gaga, the overlooked brilliance of the Blue Man Group's first album, and how his job at the Washington Post lets him explore everything from competitive Excel spreadsheet championships to extremely niche fetish communities on TikTok.The conversation goes off the deep end: gooning culture and how Shane learned about it years before it hit mainstream media, why Jeremy Scott is "the Taco Bell of fashion" (complimentary), the NFL's official stylist whose college thesis connected SpongeBob SquarePants to the Arab Spring uprisings (not a joke), and why most luxury fashion houses are actually perfume or shoe companies pretending to sell clothes. They also discuss the Ice Spice SpongeBob movie premiere outfit controversy, why people pay to stand motionless at techno clubs, and Warped Tour nostalgia.Other topics include: Devoa, the Saint Laurent SS16 Surf Sound collection, ASICS x Comme des Garçons sneakers, the oura ring and Palantir data concerns, extreme fitness culture and dissociation, Russian seal best friends named Kroshik and Shlissik, and competitive Excel spreadsheet merch.We hope you enjoy!Lots of love!Sol---Episode Tags: Shane O'Neill, Washington Post Seriously, fashion podcast 2026, gooning explained, gooning Harper's Bazaar, Jeremy Scott fashion, menswear podcast, streetwear podcast, archive fashion, internet subcultures, TikTok algorithm, competitive Excel spreadsheets, niche communities, oura ring review, Ice Spice stylist, men's fashion trends 2026, Kyle Smith NFL stylist, Alexander McQueen shoes Sol Thompson and Michael Smith explore the world and subcultures of fashion, interviewing creators, personalities, and industry insiders to highlight the new vanguard of the fashion world.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! —the podcast where we resurrect cinema's most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: was it really that bad? We're celebrating five years of cinematic redemption.As Not A Bomb waves goodbye to 2025 and kicks open the saloon doors of 2026, Troy and Brad saddle up for one last cinematic misfire from the year that was. This time, the guys take aim at Eddington, Ari Aster's divisive neo‑western that split audiences harder than a frontier land dispute.Despite Aster's reputation as one of modern horror's most daring auteurs, Eddington rode into theaters under a cloud of confusion and left with its saddle noticeably lighter. Critics were sharply divided — some praised its ambition and genre‑bending weirdness, while others felt the film wandered the desert without a map. Audiences weren't much kinder, and the box office numbers reflected it, turning Aster's bold experiment into one of 2025's most talked‑about financial face‑plants.Is Aster's genre‑twisting odyssey a misunderstood masterpiece or a dusty dud best left on the prairie trail? Troy and Brad ride into the heart of the chaos to find out.Giddy up and listen now!Eddington is directed by Ari Aster and stars Joaquin Phoenix, Pedro Pascal, Luke Grimes, Deirdre O'Connell, Michael Ward, Austin Butler, and Emma Stone.
