This week, Ryan and Brian count down the days to Lollapuzzoola! Although the NYC venue is sold out, there's both a waiting list and a way to just order the puzzles for home solving. What else? The science of finger-snapping, left-handed brass instruments, minor league baseball, a cranky rant about the NYT Games site, and a threat of further ice cream in Pleasantville.

Jeff Daniels's audio memoir/podcast series is the darndest thing. He joined us on the podcast in October 2023 to promote the launch of "Alive and Well Enough," a collection of stories, songs, and scenes and monologues from some of the actor's plays. He followed that launch with a second collection, "Alive and Well Enough Continues," a year later, and now here we are a few years after that waiting on "Son of Alive and Well Enough" or "Alive and Well Enough Already." Really, we can't get enough of this unique storytelling format, and you'll begin to hear why in this intro to the versatile performer's follow-up collection. Part podcast, part musical memoir, part bulletins from the floodlights, culled from a lifetime on stage. Daniels, the two-time Emmy Award-winning actor and star of such iconic films as "Terms of Endearment," "The Purple Rose of Cairo," "Dumb and Dumber," "Pleasantville," and "The Squid and the Whale," recalls being inspired in this effort by the story-laced songs of Steve Goodman and Arlo Guthrie, and, more recently, by Bruce Springsteen's "Springsteen on Broadway." So come on by and set a spell—and, if you like what you hear, circle back and listen to our full conversation with the actor/songwriter/playwright/producer, as he reflects on what it means to channel the work of some of our finest playwrights and screenwriters – like Lanford Wilson ("Fourth of July"), Scott Frank ("Godless") and Aaron Sorkin ("The Newsroom" and the Broadway adaptation of "To Kill a Mockingbird"). Oh, and in the goes-without-saying-department, curl up these delightful Audible Originals releases… and thank us later.

Where's my dinner? This week on the Film Junk Podcast we step inside the world of a 1950s black and white sitcom with the 1998 high concept dramedy Pleasantville. The movie was fairly well-received at the time but let's find out how it holds up almost 30 years later. Is the social commentary on point or does it miss the mark? Do the digital desaturation effects still dazzle? Is this movie better or worse than The Truman Show? What was Don Knotts' mysterious TV repairman trying to accomplish anyway? It's time to separate out the things that are pleasant from the things that are unpleasant... tune in to this week's episode of Film Junk now.
This episode originally aired Oct 10, 2023. "Sometimes I'm asked if I'll ever write a book," notes actor, playwright and singer-songwriter Jeff Daniels, "and I always answer that I already have. It's in my songs." This is true. But now it's also true that the stuff of Jeff Daniels's life is on delightful display in the Audible Originals memoir "Alive and Well Enough"—a collection of stories, musings and songs that invites listeners into the heart and mindset of one of our most versatile performers, offered with grace and good cheer and midwestern soul. Daniels, the two-time Emmy Award-winning actor and star of such iconic films as "Terms of Endearment," "The Purple Rose of Cairo," "Dumb and Dumber," "Pleasantville," and "The Squid and the Whale," recalls being inspired in this effort by the story-laced songs of Steve Goodman and Arlo Guthrie, and, more recently, by Bruce Springsteen's "Springsteen on Broadway." Part podcast, part musical memoir, part bulletins from the frontlines of contemporary storytelling, "Alive and Well Enough" is a wildly entertaining mash-up of Jeff Daniels's many gifts as a writer and performer, including scenes from some of the author's original plays, many of which have been staged at The Purple Rose Theatre Company in his hometown of Chelsea, Mich. "[It's] is the only place where I get to do everything I do," he says of his new audio project, which he calls "an adventure of an accidental artist who one day looked up and realized he had a sense of humor, a passion for writing, and stories to tell." Join us for an insightful, engaging and surprisingly candid conversation on what it means to channel the work of some of our finest playwrights and screenwriters – like Lanford Wilson ("Fourth of July"), Scott Frank ("Godless") and Aaron Sorkin ("The Newsroom" and the Broadway adaptation of "To Kill a Mockingbird"). "When you're inside the writing, it rubs off," he says. This is true as well.

Finding the right therapist for your child during a high-conflict divorce is one of the most important and misunderstood decisions you'll make.Most parents want immediate results. They want their child to sit down in session one and start processing everything that's been happening at home. But experienced art therapist Ahimsa Luciano has seen this expectation backfire again and again, and she has a more effective approach to share.In this conversation, Ahimsa breaks down what effective therapy for children in high-conflict situations actually looks like, why it takes longer than parents expect, and why that's not a bad thing. She explains how to match your child's personality to a therapeutic style, what to say when the other parent has told your child therapy means something is wrong with them, and exactly why the therapist can't be your source of custody intel, even when you desperately want updates.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE:- Why AI will never replace a human therapist, and what the 7-38-55 communication rule reveals about what's really missing- What makes an experienced intake truly different and why this first step is the most important one- How to give a resistant child space to open up, even when their world feels like it's in chaos- Why it can take months (or longer) before a child talks, and why that's not failure- How to handle a child who's been told therapy means they're damaged - a trauma-informed response that actually works- The truth about "parentification" in high-conflict families and its long-term impact on relationships and boundaries- Why children tell each parent something different and why that doesn't mean anyone is lying- What 'your child is fine with both parents' in an evaluation actually means, and why it's not the betrayal it feels like- Why custody exchanges are a major anxiety trigger for children and the specific harm of using kids as tools at handoffs- Questions to ask when choosing a therapist for your child including how to match personality type to therapeutic style- Why your child's therapy space must be private and what the therapist will and won't share with youABOUT AHIMSA LUCIANO:Ahimsa Luciano is an art therapist licensed in New York State and the co-founder and co-owner of Pleasantville Wellness Group, a multidisciplinary therapy practice in Pleasantville, NY serving children through adults, couples, and families. She began her career at a domestic violence and sexual assault agency as the children's therapist — an experience that gave her deep roots in working with kids navigating high-conflict separations, divorce, and trauma. Pleasantville Wellness Group offers a broad range of therapeutic modalities including art therapy, play therapy, and individual and group services, and is currently in-network with NYSHIP, United Healthcare, and Oxford for New York State clients. Some therapists in the practice are also licensed in additional states. https://www.pleasantvillewellnessgroup.com/home#highconflictdivorce #childtherapy #parentalalienation #coparenting #arttherapy #custodybattle #parentification #divorceandkids #traumainformedparenting #beentheregotout #kidsanddivorce #therapyforchildren

From mindful meandering and vigorous walks to gardening and small daily rituals, this episode offers practical ideas for reconnecting with the outdoors. As both guests emphasize throughout the conversation, the most powerful step is simply to go outside. Mark Bertin, MD, is a developmental pediatrician in private practice in Pleasantville, New York.

Welcome back to the show! This week we are discussing the 1998 comedy-drama, Pleasantville! Listen as we discuss it's incredible technical achievement and the surprising complexity of the films narrative. Enjoy!
Welcome to an enlightening exploration of consciousness and subconsciousness with John Kessenich, the Executive Director of the Academy for Guided Imagery on THE SOULFAM PODCAST with Diana . In this insightful podcast episode, John shares his expertise on how understanding the intricate relationship between our conscious and subconscious selves can lead to profound personal growth and transformation. A body worker for 15 years, John began his adventure with guided imagery to bring a deeper healing methodology to his clients. John begins by highlighting the unique approach of the Academy, which focuses on teaching individuals how to relate to their subconscious self. He explains that our subconscious is a powerful force responsible for processes that keep us alive, such as regulating our heartbeat and breathing. There are thousands of subconscious processes that operate independently of our awareness. Our heartbeat, which we cannot consciously stop or start, illustrates the depth of subconscious control. In this helpful, point-making interview, John refers to the movie "Pleasantville," starring Reese Witherspoon and Toby McGuire. In the film, characters live in a black and white world. Suddenly, emotions are introduced, bringing color and vibrancy to their lives in the film, changing the very landscape of their lives and bringing realizations and truths to their lives. This illustrates how the subconscious injects passion, vitality, and inspiration into our existence. Our conscious mind may be orderly and rational, but it is often the subconscious that adds depth and richness to our experiences.Diana Marcketta, the host, probes deeper into the practical applications of this understanding. She asks about the common issues clients seek to resolve, from career aspirations to more serious concerns like ADHD and traumatic brain injuries. John emphasizes that the disconnect between our conscious desires and subconscious resistance is a significant barrier to achieving our goals and how the Academy and its work to align the subconscious with conscious can shift the trajectory of your life. Part shamanic journey, part highly researched science, the methodology of the Academy for Guided Imagery welcomes a new era of understanding, alignment and achievement for every facet of your life and purpose. As we as a collective wake and remember our true callings, the Academy is there to assist to the key alignment between our desires and our blocks. John shares some helpful diy tips to begin engaging the conscious with subconscious as well as his work with guided imagery. THIS IS THE KEY TO TRUE MANIFESTATION. 1. **Breathwork**: Breathing serves as a bridge between the conscious and subconscious. By focusing on our breath, we can establish a deeper connection with our inner selves. John emphasizes the importance of consistent breathwork to foster awareness and alignment.2. **Free Writing**: Engaging in free writing allows individuals to bypass their mental barriers and access deeper thoughts and feelings. By writing without self-censorship, people can unlock insights from their subconscious that may otherwise remain hidden.3. **Interactive Guided Imagery**: At the Academy, John describes the use of interactive guided imagery, a technique that combines elements of dream and deep meditation. This method allows individuals to visualize peaceful places and engage with their subconscious in a dialogue, leading to unexpected revelations and insights.John explains that many clients are surprised by the insights gained through interactive guided imagery. They often discover a well of wisdom and perspective that their conscious mind had previously overlooked. This process not only enhances self-awareness but also empowers individuals to channel their subconscious Support the show@dianamarcketta

Building on the grounded realism of The Bourne Identity, this chapter pushes Jason Bourne deeper into paranoia, grief, and relentless pursuit as his past refuses to stay buried. The film follows Jason Bourne (Matt Damon – The Martian, Good Will Hunting) as he's pulled back into the world of covert assassinations after being framed for a CIA operation gone wrong. Haunted by guilt and determined to uncover the truth, Bourne becomes both hunter and hunted across Europe. Key figures in the conspiracy include Pamela Landy (Joan Allen – The Contender, Pleasantville), a sharp CIA deputy director trying to untangle Bourne from the agency's darkest secrets, and Kirill (Karl Urban – The Boys, Dredd), a ruthless assassin whose pursuit leads to some of the franchise's most visceral confrontations. Iconic moments from the film include the explosive Moscow car chase, often cited as one of the greatest chase sequences ever filmed; Bourne's brutal apartment fight with Kirill; the tense Berlin sequences; and the emotionally devastating revelation involving Marie (Franka Potente – Run Lola Run, The Conjuring 2). With its handheld cinematography, pounding urgency, and morally complex storytelling, The Bourne Supremacy elevated the franchise into a defining force of 2000s action cinema.

Forgiveness is almost never a one-and-done action. Whether what we're forgiving is big or small, our own error or someone else's—most often, there are residual feelings of anger, hurt, or resentment to contend with. In this guided practice, Mark Bertin addresses this tendency to compound our suffering when we hang onto these difficult emotions. He offers a way to gently surrender this extra emotional baggage so that we can fully experience the healing that forgiveness offers. Mark Bertin, MD, is a pediatrician, author, professor, and mindfulness teacher specializing in neurodevelopmental behavioral pediatrics. He's a regular contributor to Mindful.org and Psychology Today. He is the author of How Children Thrive: The Practical Science of Raising Independent, Resilient, and Happy Kids (Sounds True, 2018). Dr. Bertin resides in Pleasantville, New York. For more, visit developmentaldoctor.com. The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.

Go Deeper Forgiveness is one of the most challenging mindful qualities to develop. Understandably, we want to feel seen and heard in our pain, and we don't want to feel like we're being walked over or making excuses for harmful behavior. From a mindfulness perspective, forgiveness holds all of these experiences in a kind of loving tension, allowing the complexities to surface. To learn more about what forgiveness is (and isn't) and how to nurture it in your daily life, check out these resources from the website: New Research on Mindfulness and Forgiveness The Work It Takes to Forgive How to Let Go of an Old Regret Let It Go: How to Practice Forgiveness If you're at the very beginning of the process and want help getting started on your forgiveness journey, try this practice: A Guided Meditation to Welcome Forgiveness.

This week, we sink our claws into Ginger Snaps (2000), a dark, coming-of-age horror story that turns puberty into a full-blown monster movie. What starts as a tale of two outcast sisters quickly spirals into a blood-soaked exploration of transformation, identity, and the brutal side of growing up and growing apart.We're talking werewolves, womanhood, and why Ginger Snaps still stands as one of the most honest and gnarliest depictions of teenage horror ever made.It's moody, messy, and magnificently macabre...just how we like it.Timestamps5:21 - Negronomicon14:41 - Crit1:04:50 - Final CurlsGems from Ep. 114The Mummy (1999)The Mummy Returns (2001)Scream 5 (2022)Scream VI (2023)Ready or Not (2019)The Family Plan (2023)The Family Plan 2 (2025)The Deliverance (2024)The Whale (2022)Rental Family (2025)The Mummy (2017)The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor (2008)Twilight (2008)Romeo Must Die (2000)Paper Mario (2001)The Mummy (1932)Frankenstein (2025)Frankenstein (1931)Ginger Snaps (2000)Trick r' Treat (2007)She's the Man (2006)Freddy vs. Jason (2003)American Mary (2012)Carrie (2002)Carrie (upcoming, television series)Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed (2004)Ginger Snaps Back: The Beginning (2004)Final Destination 3 (2006)Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (2001)Smallville (2001)Edward Scissorhands (1990)Pleasantville (1998)The Monstrous Feminine (Barbara Creed, Routledge, 1993, Print)Being Human (2008, television series)Van Helsing (2004)An American Werewolf in London (1981)Jennifer's Body (2009)Heavenly Creatures (1994)Yellowjackets (2021, television series)Cube (1997)Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon (2013, video game)Luigi's Mansion 2 HD (2024, video game)Support the show
Fall back in time with Legends Podcast! All month long, we're talking about time travel, paradoxes, and separating out the things that are pleasant from the things that are unpleasant. In 1998, Big and Dave screenwriter Gary Ross made his directorial debut with a quirky comedy starring Tobey Maguire and Reese Witherspoon. The young up-and-coming stars were cast opposite stalwarts William H. Macy, Joan Allen, Jeff Daniels, and J.T. Walsh in a romp through classic television - literally. When a mischievous TV repairman (played, of course, by sitcom legend Don Knotts) sends the Ninties teens into a Fifties Leave It To Beaver knock-off, things only get stranger when their modern sensibilities start turning the black-and-white town all sorts of newfangled colors. Despite positive reviews and a first-place opening weekend, the film ultimately failed to enchant audiences and became a box office flop. Now we're tuning in to see what all the hubbub is about in Pleasantville. But does it belong in reruns, or should we burn every copy we find? This is Chronovember!

Our brains are hardwired to notice the negative. It's part of how our ancient ancestors were able to survive in constantly threatening environments. But this negativity bias can also make it difficult for us and our kids—even in our comparatively less threatening environments—to navigate daily stressors, like big tests, arguments, or disappointments. In this shorter practice specifically designed for younger meditators, Dr. Mark Bertin shows kids how to gently guide their attention back to the positive things they might have missed, in order to help soothe the nervous system and bring calm. Mark Bertin, MD., is a pediatrician, author, professor, and mindfulness teacher specializing in neurodevelopmental behavioral pediatrics. He's a regular contributor to Mindful.org and Psychology Today. He is the author of How Children Thrive: The Practical Science of Raising Independent, Resilient, and Happy Kids (Sounds True, 2018).

After their work shifts at the local pizza parlor, Dylan and his friend Brandon would often hang out and drive around their small town of Pleasantville, Ohio. One seemingly ordinary afternoon, their routine took a bizarre turn when they passed a massive, otherworldly creature with apparent cloaking abilities.
