Podcasts about The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Five heartwarming stories kick off the weekend. A California father, Bryce Weiner, channels Taken to rescue his kidnapped 14-year-old daughter from human traffickers in Mexico after a three-year, 5,000-mile quest, reuniting at the U.S. embassy. Amy, a former pediatric oncology social worker, founds A Doll Like Me, crafting custom dolls for children with disabilities, funded by donations to affirm their uniqueness. A neighbor surprises another with smoked sausages, sharing 100 pounds of meat in a wholesome gesture. Dirty Paws Agape Haven in Michigan, run by cardiologist Tom Pappas, provides a sanctuary for over 20 senior dogs, ensuring their final years are filled with love. A woman's viral TikTok reveals her eclectic accent, shaped by Indian, Arabic, Lebanese, Nigerian, and American influences, learned via YouTube and Eminem. The duo dives into C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity, Book 3, discussing social morality and the church's role in applying Christian principles through laypeople, not clergy. Highlights include Ben's McDonald's adventure and Bella's love for Sicario. The question of the week explores impactful books: Bella cites Perks of Being a Wallflower, while Aaron picks Wayne Grudem's Systematic Theology.

Hosts: Paul Stroessner & Suzanne Mattaboni In this episode of the GenX Book Club, Paul is joined by fellow GenX writer Suzanne Mattaboni (Once in a Lifetime) for a heartfelt, honest, and occasionally hilarious discussion about The Perks of Being a Wallflower—Stephen Chbosky's raw and unforgettable coming-of-age story. We unpack the novel's unique letter-based format and how it allows us to experience Charlie's inner world with startling intimacy. Then we turn to the film adaptation—talking about the pitch-perfect cast (hello, Emma Watson and Ezra Miller), the soundtrack that's pure mixtape magic, and those unforgettable Rocky Horror scenes that made us feel like we were right there in the audience. And yes, we get into that tunnel scene… Suzanne couldn't help but slip into full-on mom mode at the sight of Sam standing in the back of a moving pickup truck. (“WHERE ARE THE SEATBELTS?!”)

"We accept the love we think we deserve."If you were on Tumblr in 2012, chances are you or someone you know had a huge THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER phase. This week, The Wives Colangelo are talking about the book-turned-movie phenomenon, addressing their personal hang-ups from a decade ago, getting extremely candid about the ways they relate to Charlie, and why this story is far more important than its "hipster" reputation.----Become a Patron!https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom----Article ReferencedHow The Perks of Being a Wallflower Became a Generation-Defining Classic: https://consequence.net/2022/09/perks-of-being-a-wallflower-why-its-good/----MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTThe Buckeye Flame! https://thebuckeyeflame.com/----Follow the Show: @ThisEndsAtPromBJ Colangelo: @BJColangeloHarmony Colangelo: @Veloci_trap_tor / @HarmonyColangelo on Bluesky----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

November 2024 meets us as we're knee deep in Scorpio season. Scorpio asks us to acknowledge what we'd often rather ignore — the shadows, the secrets, the truths hidden beneath layers of ego and comfort. This month is a crucible, where transformation isn't a flash of sudden insight, but a process — one that requires us to sit, to unravel, to burn, and to refine before we emerge as a renewed version of ourselves. There's a sense of “To Be Continued…” lingering in the air. We're in the midst of a cliffhanger.Scorpio, the sign of transformation and emotional depth, reminds us that “becoming” is not a destination but an ongoing state. It's uncomfortable and confrontational. We're not who we once were, and we're not sure of who we're changing into either.Scorpio's role in the zodiac is essential. It's a sign that refuses to let us stay on the surface of Libra's superficial harmony, and it also won't allow us to catapult into Sagittarius's carefree way of living either. Not unless we've gotten raw and real with ourselves first. In Scorpio's domain, we are reminded that there's no skipping over the hard parts. We have to go through them. We have to sit in the discomfort, not as punishment, but as preparation.The sense of “becoming” is not a linear path. It's a spiral that winds through the shadows. But in time, the shadows give way to something new — something truer, something stronger, and something only you can become.Topics & Transits Include:The unvarnished energy, alchemy, and developmental process of Scorpio Scorpio's role as the gateway sign between Libra and SagittariusThe functions of Mars and Pluto as Scorpio's co-ruling planetsNew Moon in Scorpio (Nov. 1) Full Moon in Taurus (Nov. 15)Mercury entering Sagittarius (Nov. 2)Mars entering Leo (Nov. 3)Venus entering Capricorn (Nov. 11)Pluto entering Aquarius (Nov. 19)Sun entering Sagittarius (Nov. 21)Saturn Retrograde in Pisces Ends (Nov. 15)Mercury Retrograde in Sagittarius Begins (Nov. 25)Mars/Pluto Opposition (Nov. 3) - and its larger storyline over numerous yearsThe astrology of Election Day in the U.S. (Nov. 5) Plus more shenanigans... ***************************Book & Movie Recommendations for November: Books: The Perks of Being a Wallflower / The Catcher in the Rye / A Tree Grows in Brooklyn / The Alchemist / Little WomenMovies: Stand By Me / The Breakfast Club / Lady Bird / Call Me By Your Name / Spirited Away***************************DON'T FORGET TO VOTE IF YOU LIVE IN AMERICA!

We all know RuPaul's classic line ‘if you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you gonna love somebody else?' – but how true is it really? Or is self-love something that can grow through being in a relationship and loving someone else?

(NOTAS Y ENLACES DEL CAPÍTULO AQUÍ: https://www.jaimerodriguezdesantiago.com/kaizen/163-modelos-mentales-19-reflexividad-soros-retretes-y-atletas/)Te confesaré que escribir la introducción del capítulo de hoy ha sido todo un reto. Porque sabía a dónde quería llegar, pero no cómo darle coherencia. Y lo primero que se me ha ocurrido es un meme. Uno que seguramente has visto alguna vez, una especie de cómic que circula por las redes sociales, en el que en la primera viñeta aparece un hombre, de espaldas, orinando tranquilamente a solas en el último de una larga fila de retretes. Bueno, no, no son retretes, son urinarios o mingitorios —que descubrí hace tiempo que se llaman así esos que son de pie, los típicos de los baños masculinos y me parece una palabra maravillosa. Aunque en un capítulo de Nadie Sabe Nada, Berto y Buenafuente les dieron un nombre incluso mejor, más… creativo. Pero no me atrevo a repetirlo aquí, así que lo dejaremos en el aire para los aficionados a los podcasts o para quienes lo busquéis en las notas del capítulo. Volviendo a nuestro meme, está el tipo desaguando tan a gusto cuando en la segunda viñeta se ve aparecer por la derecha a otro hombre que camina hacia él. En la siguiente está aún más cerca, hasta que finalmente se pone a utilizar justo el urinario contiguo al que ya estaba ocupado. Ladea la cabeza y dice algo que es cada vez distinto, según el meme, pero que siempre promete ser el comienzo de lo que técnicamente se llama una chapa monumental. Algo, como, por ejemplo: «¿Te he dicho que tengo un podcast?». Cuando yo era estudiante —antes de ayer o en un tiempo muy muy lejano, dependiendo de a quién le preguntes—, y seguramente como parte de eso que ahora se llama la masculinidad frágil, había una regla no escrita sobre los baños masculinos que un amigo mío resumió en cierta ocasión como: se deben utilizar sólo los impares y si están todos ocupados, te esperas a que se libere uno. Así que se ve que a los hombres este tema tan absurdo de los baños públicos nos preocupa bastante más de lo que debiera. Una prueba más es que hace un tiempo, una persona respetable que ha pasado por este podcast, Samuel Gil, escribió un tweet que decía: «Alguien tiene que desarrollar una estrategia óptima según la teoría de juegos sobre qué retrete se debe elegir en un sitio público. ¿Primero, último, uno del medio? Sin mirar, claro» Y lo entiendo perfectamente, uno nunca sabe qué se va a encontrar detrás de la puerta.Pero da la casualidad de que, poco antes, el propio Samuel había escrito algo bastante más serio en su newsletter, Suma Positiva, sobre un tema más relacionado con esto de lo que parece —precisamente el tema del que vamos a hablar hoy. Y así se lo dije. Porque había un problema con su pregunta: si alguien desarrollaba esa estrategia óptima sobre qué lugar elegir y la daba a conocer, todo el mundo iría a ese retrete y volveríamos a estar en el punto de partida. Así que si se encontraba esa solución, habría que mantenerla en secreto, sólo al alcance de unos pocos privilegiados para que siguiera siendo óptima. A lo que, yo creo que sin ser consciente del energúmeno que tenía enfrente, Samuel me respondió que «eso se merecía un kaizen»Y aquí estamos, en una demostración más de mi facilidad absoluta para enredarme con cualquier tema por estúpido que parezca, hablando de urinarios y retretes públicos. ¿A qué jamás lo hubieras imaginado? Pues yo tampoco, pero me he dado cuenta de que mucho de lo que hago es el resultado de decisiones poco meditadas que no tienen más motivo que el de echarme unas risas. Verás cuando te cuente cómo me hice amigo de mi querida Itziar García… pero esa es una historia para otro día. Porque detrás de todo este rollo aparentemente estúpido sobre el retrete óptimo a elegir, hay un concepto fascinante que es fundamental en muchos ámbitos de la vida. Hoy retomamos los modelos mentales y lo hacemos con un especial sobre la reflexividad. ¡Toma ya!

We’ve all been there… high school… day 1… the challenge to fit in, to make friends, the struggle to find ourselves in the manic energy of a new building, surrounded by a sea of foreign faces.

Everyone say thank you to Anonymous for commissioning me and RoShawn to cover The Perks Of Being A Wallflower as a power couple! If you weren't able to make our Crowdcast, that's a shame because it was a lot of fun (and not everything in a Crowdcast makes it into the final episode) but it's still available to watch if you want. https://www.crowdcast.io/e/spoil-me-perks-of-beingThis movie was lovely and angsty and heart wrenching and really fun. I liked it a lot more than I expected to. However, I think the person it really spoke to was RoShawn. She recognized a lot of the music and a lot of the scene, and she just connected really hard with everything in a way that felt very specific. I want to thank Anonymous for their commission and for their patience, because it took so long for RoShawn and I to find the time in our schedules to fit this in. I hope that person feels it was worth it in the end! Thank you again!

This week is The Perks Of Being A Wallflower, a Novel by Stephen Chbosky. We have realized that all of our episodes tend to take on the feeling of the media we happen to be covering that week; this one is no different. We cover PTSD ( Post Traumatic Stress Disorder ) in the Novel by Stephen Chbosky: The Perks Of Being A Wallflower Deep, intense and always serious for this episode, Ryan and Mike break down what PTSD really is, and how a Therapist, like Ryan, goes about treatment. We learn what kinds of Trauma can create PTSD in a mind, and how recalling those events (triggers) can take a real, and sometimes ugly toll on those that experience this kind of Mental Health Issue Ryan gives us some insider knowledge into treatment, focusing on the method known as EMDR. Ryan shares a story from his past that has some triggers for him as an adult, and how he has learned to use these methods to see his own personal patterns, and make a change to learn and grow from his experiences, both while participating in EMDR training, and the revelations that the training revealed to him. Mike is talking sometimes. Find Us: Mental Health Podcast | Pop Psych 101 We have a Blog! Ryan always had a Blog!

Mae Whitman (Parenthood, Perks of Being a Wallflower, Hope Floats, Good Girls) is an American actress and singer, but paramount to all of that she is Dax's sweet bebe. Mae sits down with the Armchair Expert to discuss her 28 year long career as an actress, how she juggled acting and childhood, and she doubles down on her undying love of Taylor Swift. In this lovefest, Dax gush's over Mae's superior personality and Mae talks about her experience doing full nudity on stage. The two of them reveal their salacious plot to have more scenes together on Parenthood, they reminisce on a very specific facial expression that brought the two of them together and Monica and Dax debate the tired topic of how to pronounce Caribbean.

Spilljournalist og go'gammal kompis Espen Jansen har tatt turen for å snakke om spill og diverse uheldige hendelser i både hans og våre liv.

In 2004, now-legendary director Alfonso Cuarón turned Harry Potter into a dark, scary, morally ambiguous teen-horror film — and it was fantastic. With Disney’s 2017 BEAUTY AND THE BEAST topping $1 billion, the immensely talented Emma Watson’s star is as astronomical as ever. While she has provided us with some fantastic non-Harry Potter roles — including THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER and THE COLONY — it was this third Harry Potter entry in 2004 by Mr. Cuarón that really brought this incredible talent to my attention. I was very much NOT a Harry Potter person in 2004 (and still not so much today), and this was the first time I had interfaced with any HP property thanks to my sister’s loving prodding, insisting that this was the first “adult” HP film (thanks sis!). I was immediately blown away by three things in this film: the bizarre, dark, stylized, and weirdly funny filmmaking by Cuarón; Daniel Radcliffe playing a MUCH cooler and more badass Harry Potter than I was expecting (“badass” was NOT a word I was expecting to feel about him); but most of all, this 12 year old girl named Emma Watson playing Harry’s best buddy Hermione Granger who immediately displayed a fiery, bold, and fiercely loyal temperament — and then proceeded to steal the film with her presence, her performance, and her brilliantly written role in this tale by J.K. Rowling. Rowling herself is said to have been thrilled with both the selection of Cuarón and the finished product, and it’s not hard to see why. This is a landmark work of fantasy and probably my favorite fantasy film ever not called THE LORD OF THE RINGS, and I don’t even know what’s close. With classic supporting performances by Gary Oldman, David Thewlis, and of course Alan Rickman aka “The Doctor of Dry,” this is one for the and for all ages.
