Podcasts about Pinocchio

In light of the dismal Disclosure Day (2026), we return to two films that show Spielberg tackling alien visitation (or invasion) stories while at the height of his powers. Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977) and The War of the Worlds (2005) are decades apart, yet united by a single image and devotion to their audiences. The first is as Disneylike as Pinocchio; the second conjures memories of 9/11. Both show domesticity under great strain as families and infrastructures break down; one ends with hope while the other simply stops. Incredible bumper music by John Deley. The War of the Worlds is based on H. G. Wells's 1898 novel, which you can purchase here. Please subscribe to the show and consider leaving us a rating or review.

It is impossible to have a horror podcast and not talk about ‘Friday the 13th' and ‘A Nightmare on Elm Street'. And most of our time has been spent wondering how there has not been a new entry in either of the fan favorite franchises for decades. We finally have a little bit of news on both of them. We also talk about the surprising success of Widow's Bay. If you take a 10,000 foot view of Rubberhead: The Life and Monsters of Steve Johnson, you will think you know exactly what it is about. And you would not be completely wrong. The documentary surprised us by being one of the most emotional and information watches we have ever had. If you grew up as a horror fan in the 1980s or early 90s, chances are you have seen Johnson's work. He invented Slimer, worked on ‘Species', created the arms for Doctor Octopus in ‘Spider-Man 2', and worked on the still outstanding special effects for ‘An American Werewolf in London'. And that is just the very tip of the iceberg. But along with being an incredible genius, he is also incredibly self-destructive. This makes Rubberhead one of the most frustrating watches of the year. His work is amazing, but he also knows what is shortcomings are and has no interest in fixing them. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Spine 700, can you believe it? We've been doing this for a long time. Criterion rewards our dedication with an overly full release of Wes Anderson's adaptation of Roald Dahl's Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009). Mark Gustafson is animation director of this animated movie, but this is less a Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas situation than a Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio, the former of which is a Henry Selick movie that gets mistakenly attributed to the producer and the later of which Gustafson actually has credited co-director status on because Del Toro respects artists. Gustafson and the animation team bring Wes Anderson's vision to life to create one of the most Wes Anderson-y movies Wes Anderson has ever made.

In today's ep, we're joined by the marvellous comedian, Alex Franklin, who not only proves herself to be a real brick with her help in solving a crime against alcohol, but also provides an incredible story of an ex-housemate who must have a nose longer than Pinocchio, even if he IS best mates with Edgar Wright!We'll see you on Friday, when we're joined in the studio by Candace Bryan. The DWSC London Residency is BACK at The Pleasance.You can see Hannah and Taylor, plus their special guests in September, October AND November.Full info and tickets HERE. Hosted on Acast.

Try to imagine a world without birds. It's quite a challenge, given that we share the planet with tens of billions of birds spanning an astonishing 14,000 species. Birds find homes nearly everywhere that people do – and many places we do not – and their prowess and plumage have captivated human imagination throughout the ages. But impressive aerial feats and collective choirs of song aside, part of our fascination with birds is rooted in the awe of something so delicate and strange. How did such seemingly fragile creatures made of hollow bones and downy feathers break the mold of terrestrial life and survive millennia? In his newest book, The Story of Birds: A New History, from Their Dinosaur Origins to the Present, esteemed paleontologist Steve Brusatte embarks on a deep dive through the history of avian evolution. The Story of Birds begins by exploring how dinosaurs gradually developed the trademark features of birds one-by-one—feathers, wings, beaks, big brains, keen senses, and warm-blooded metabolisms. Brusatte investigates how these features contributed to birds emerging as the only surviving dinosaurs of the cataclysmic asteroid impact 66 million years ago, and how their numbers soared to new heights of diversity in the barren landscape that followed. Along this journey through time, meet extraordinary extinct species like the 1.5-ton elephant birds of Madagascar, giant Pelagornithid seabirds with 20-foot wingspans, and flightless 10-foot-tall terror birds with beaks that sliced flesh. Brusatte follows these remarkable species all the way down to the present, urging readers to share the same appreciation for the many impressive birds of today– penguins that literally fly underwater, parrots that can mimic human speech, and hummingbirds that hover mid-air and dive at 50 miles per hour. Presented with keen research and soaring enthusiasm, The Story of Birds unearths the unique origins of birds and the legacy they continue to live to this day. Steve Brusatte, PhD, is an American paleontologist who teaches at the University of Edinburgh, in Scotland. He is the author of the international bestseller The Rise and Fall of the Dinosaurs and The Rise and Reign of the Mammals. The paleontology advisor on the Jurassic World film franchise, Brusatte has named more than fifteen new species, including the tyrannosaur "Pinocchio rex" (Qianzhousaurus), the raptor Zhenyuanlong, and several ancient mammals. His research and writing has been featured in Science, the New York Times, Scientific American, and many other publications. David B. Williams is an author and naturalist whose award-winning books include Homewaters: A Human and Natural History of Puget Sound and Too High and Too Steep: Reshaping Seattle's Topography, as well as co-authoring Spirit Whales and Sloth Tales: Fossils of Washington State. His newest book, Wild in Seattle: Stories at the Crossroads of People and Nature is a best-of collection from his free weekly Substack newsletter, the Street Smart Naturalist. He has been called an "evangelist for the practice of paying attention." Buy the Book The Story of Birds: A New History from Their Dinosaur Origins to the Present Elliott Bay Book Company

Jim Hill and Drew Taylor take a Fourth of July detour on Fine Tooning for a deep dive into the first 50 years of Disney animation directors. With Ron Clements' memoir now pushed to October and The Great Mouse Detective celebrating its 40th anniversary, Jim and Drew trace how Disney's animated features evolved from Walt's hands-on oversight to the rise of the CalArts generation. Along the way, they revisit Snow White, Dumbo, Cinderella, The Jungle Book, The Rescuers, The Black Cauldron, and the film that helped set the stage for Disney animation's next era. HIGHLIGHTS • Ron Clements' long-awaited memoir, Making Disney Magic, gets another release-date delay. • The Great Mouse Detective turns 40, giving Jim and Drew the perfect excuse to revisit Disney animation's directing history. • Walt Disney's role in shaping Snow White, Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, and Bambi gets a fresh look. • The wartime package films reveal how Disney kept animation alive during a difficult stretch for the studio. • The conversation follows the handoff from veteran Disney directors to the CalArts generation that changed feature animation. FEATURE • How early Disney animated features used supervising directors, sequence directors, and Walt's final creative say. • Why Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp, and Sleeping Beauty marked a major postwar rebuilding period. • How Wolfgang Reitherman's run helped define the studio's animated output after Walt's death. • Why The Rescuers, The Fox and the Hound, The Black Cauldron, and The Great Mouse Detective became turning points for the next generation of Disney storytellers.

Jiminy Cricket takes center stage as the duo of Joshua Noel and Andy Walsh dive into how this iconic character plays the role of conscience for Pinocchio in both the animated classic and the original novel. Joshua Noel and Andy Walsh explore the significant differences between the two portrayals, highlighting how Disney transformed Jiminy from a ghostly figure in the book to a charming, wise mentor in the film. They banter about the character's oddities, including the curious idea of a tiny cricket serving as moral guidance and whether or not he truly impacts Pinocchio's journey. As they dissect Jiminy's adventures and misadventures, they also ponder the broader implications of guidance and responsibility in relationships, making for a thoughtful yet light-hearted discussion. Stick around as they unravel the nuances of what it means to have someone—or something—looking out for you, even if it's a little bug on your shoulder!Takeaways:Jiminy Cricket's role in Pinocchio's story highlights the contrast between his animated charm and the darker themes of the original novel.The podcast discusses how Jiminy Cricket serves as an enduring cultural icon, embodying the idea of conscience in various adaptations over time.Listeners learn that Jiminy Cricket's character development in Disney's version significantly differs from his early literary portrayal, where he meets a swift demise.The hosts humorously debate Jiminy's effectiveness as a conscience, questioning whether he truly impacts Pinocchio's decisions throughout the story.Andy and Joshua explore the nuanced relationship between Jiminy Cricket and Pinocchio, suggesting that dependence on a small cricket for guidance is a bit absurd.The episode wraps up by recommending various adaptations of Pinocchio, including a graphic novel that creatively reimagines the classic tale with a fresh artistic flair...Be sure to check out our merch, find extra content, and become an official member of Systematic Geekology on our website:https://systematic-geekology-shop.fourthwall.com/.Check out all of our annual theme for 2026 ("The Faces Behind Us") series:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/dd903597-98be-49ed-998c-5cdaf73b6af4.Hear more of our Disney episodes:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/09b1c796-b409-4cfe-bbd0-8b7a8032f846.Listen to our entire All Reading Counts series to date:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/3706021e-22e5-4598-ae1d-732ec8e275a9.Check out other episodes with Joshua:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/642da9db-496a-40f5-b212-7013d1e211e0.Check out other episodes with Andy:https://player.captivate.fm/collection/c86f7a67-357b-4324-bf95-e42cedb9932aMentioned in this episode:Get Your SG Merch now!Check out the link to see all of our different t-shirts, backpacks, drinking glasses, pajamas, and more!

The Pencil Pushers podcast interviews stop-motion animator/director Justin Rasch, who has worked for 30 years across games, TV, and film, including ParaNorman, Kubo and the Two Strings, and Guillermo del Toro's Oscar-winning Pinocchio, and now directs/writes/supervises at Stump Puppet Pictures while sharing process online. Rasch recounts growing up in Florida inspired by comics, classic cartoons, Secret of NIMH, and practical effects artists, studying 2D and effects at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, then switching to CG after Jurassic Park. He describes breaking in by portfolio-hunting in 1990s LA, choosing Konami, and later leading animation at Luxoflux on projects like Shrek and True Crime: Streets of LA. Rasch explains how animation principles transfer across 2D/CG/stop motion, details his stop-motion workflow (blocking, shooting on twos, then final on ones), discusses why stop motion is hard to "control," and reflects on AI, audience interest in process, and working with Travis Knight and del Toro. He shares where to find him on Instagram and YouTube.

Inizia la settimana di Pinocchio in diretta da Jesolo: compiti, meditazione con le mucche e il riuso dei bastoncini del gelato. Non mancano i ghiaccioli sotto le ascelle e le tecniche per salvare gli uccellini disidratati.
