Send us a textIt's 2025 SPOOK-TOBERToday were talking about:The dead don't rest — especially when they've got middle school drama to deal with.In ParaNorman (2012), a misunderstood boy who talks to ghosts must save his town from an ancient curse, proving that sometimes the real monsters are PTA members and small-town gossip. Through clay and courage, Laika Studios builds a hauntingly tender world where every grave hides a story and every outsider has a voice.It's eerie, heartfelt, and weirdly profound — like if The Sixth Sense had a Saturday morning cartoon phase.

Paul Thomas Anderson films. Sarah Watt, Jeremy Downing and William Chen discuss One Battle After Another (2025) and Punch Drunk Love (2002), both directed by PTA. Out conversation begins by comparing the villains in both films, played by Sean Penn and Philip Seymour Hoffman, respectively. We talk about the confident performances of Adam Sandler and Emily Watson in Punch Drunk Love. We praise the work of Leonardo DiCaprio in One Battle After Another and discuss our other highlights from the film. We also praise the performances of Chase Infiniti and Teyana Taylor. We make connections to the films Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Children of Men, Heat and The Dark Knight; the work of David Lynch, The Coen Brothers, Quentin Tarantino and Spike Jonze; and the Western genre.

From Netflix's birth to Titanic mania, its safe to say that 1997 was a stacked year, but not before a 26-year-old Paul Thomas Anderson dropped Boogie Nights, turning taboo into pure cinema. On this episode, we revisit the film's intoxicating rise-and-fall arc, the found-family heartbeat, and the moment VHS killed the golden age of adult films. We also dig into the real-world inspirations (Dirk Diggler ⇄ John Holmes; the Wonderland murders), the deliriously tense Alfred Molina “Jessie's Girl” sequence, some wild what-ifs—like Leo DiCaprio passing on the lead—and the legend behind Dirk's big reveal at the end of the film.Chapters:00:00 PTA Was HOW OLD?!00:24 What You'll Get (Adult Themes)01:23 First Impressions03:30 From Valley Kid to Visionary04:24 What Could've Been06:33 Why Wahlberg Works07:31 Burt Reynolds vs PTA (…and the Oscar)08:38 The REAL Dirk Diggler11:25 Was that Real or Fake?12:52 This Opening One-Take SLAPS15:28 More PTA Flexing21:34 Tone Flip on NYE25:54 VHS Killed The Film Star29:39 Jessie's Girl: The Most Tense 8 Minutes33:06 Found Family… and Fallout42:16 Wrap-UpContent note: Heavy adult themes on this episode, so viewer discretion is advised.

Season 5 Ep 43: A Movie Review of Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another." My buddy Jason and I break down PTA's latest offering, and before you click, pure unadulterated spoilers. You have been warned.  0:00 - Intro 1:12 - Act One: A Movie Review of Paul Thomas Anderson's "One Battle After Another" with my buddy Jason 53:59 - Act Two: Epilogue 

It's one PTA podcast after another! We wrap up our look back at one of the modern masters of cinema with our review of his latest film, One Battle After Another! The film marks his first collaboration with Leonardo DiCaprio and is his highest grossing film to date. But did it work for our hosts? Our next couple of episodes will be some spooky new releases before Halloween with Good Boy and Shelby Oaks!

Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another has been the talk of the town since its wide release last month—from critics to filmmakers to audiences, the reception has been nothing short of euphoric. Loosely inspired by Thomas Pynchon's novel Vineland, the film opens in an unspecified present, detailing the activities of a militant group led by a Black revolutionary (played by Teyana Taylor). Years after her disappearance, her partner (Leonardo DiCaprio) and their daughter (newcomer Chase Infiniti) are hunted down by an old enemy, Sean Penn's Colonel Steven J. Lockjaw. The chase takes them across California, with an assortment of other characters becoming embroiled along the way.  The movie is an unabashedly fun, feel-good action flick—one that also calls back to films as disparate as The Searchers, Commando, and Running on Empty. But is it among the greatest of the decade, as some have claimed? Film Comment Editors Clinton Krute and Devika Girish invited critics and programmers Miriam Bale and Adam Piron on the Podcast to discuss the film's successes and failures, how it fits into PTA's larger body of work, and its engagement with American history and the present. If there's one thing the four agreed on, it's that One Battle After Another is indeed a “very rich text.”

In this debut episode of Wait, what?, veteran patent attorneys Laura Gordon and Stephanie Lodise unravel the deceptively tricky world of Information Disclosure Statement (IDS) timing. Just because the USPTO says you can file an IDS doesn't mean you should, especially if you care about preserving Patent Term Adjustment (PTA). With real-world examples, court cases, and practical tips, they expose how well-meaning disclosures can backfire and cost valuable patent term. Tune in to learn how to dodge the timing traps and keep your PTA intact.

There are no spoilers in this episode. As Alex and Nick give their glowing review of Paul Thomas Anderson's “One Battle After Another,” topics include attending an LA premiere, the film's Oscar chances, Alex's recent brush with death, Nick's recent brush with death, Top 5 Leonardo DiCaprio performances, re-ranking PTA's filmography, meeting Colin Farrell, and much more.For WAYW, the guys review new movies from Daniel Day-Lewis(!), Derek Cianfrance, Kathryn Bigelow, Luca Guadagnino, Rebecca Miller, Paul Greengrass, Edward Berger, and more.Follow @WAYW_Podcast on Instagram / Letterboxd / XSend mailbag questions to whatareyouwatchingpodcast@gmail.com

PTA's follow up to his portrait of American commerce and religion tackles another strange time in American history, the rise of cults in the 1950s with The Master. Partially based on the life of L. Ron Hubbard, this film examines how cult of personalities control those who fall into them. It's one of our hosts favorite films! Next episode we'll finally be discussing One Battle After Another!

In this episode, Chris and Neil get spooky and excited. After the intro, the guys fire up their shudder accounts and watch the 8th installment of the VHS franchise with VHS Halloween. Then, after the news, they head to the theater and talk Paul Thomas Anderson's newest flick, One Battle After Another. It has an all star cast like Leonardo DiCaprio, Teyana Taylor, Benicio Del Toro and Sean Penn. They give their thoughts. It's just that simple, beetches.

Send us a textEver wonder why some home service brands feel trustworthy before they even quote the job? We pull back the curtain on three simple, overlooked moves that stack trust fast: a brand ecosystem audit, a hyperlocal micro influencer network, and a documentary-style install video that shows the work, the manners, and the finish line.First, we map every place your brand lives in the real world—fleet wraps, uniforms, CSR tone, on-hold music, reviews, email signatures, invoices, social, and signage. Then we prioritize the fixes that signal care: clean, consistent trucks; technicians who look and speak on brand; and responses that turn reviews into SEO. This isn't a rebrand; it's a punch list that makes every touchpoint feel the same, so your neighbors recognize you and risk feels lower before your tech arrives.Next, we ditch celebrity influencers for people your market already trusts: the realtor who knows every street, the PTA organizer who mobilizes a school, the youth coach everyone thanks on Saturdays. We outline a simple value exchange—swag, gift cards, or a free maintenance plan—in return for honest posts about real experiences. No scripts, just authenticity and accountability. If something misses, we fix it and learn. That's how local word of mouth scales without feeling bought.Finally, we show how to film a relatable behind-the-scenes install. Choose an average home, capture van loading, protective prep, cleanup, walkthroughs, and a calm voiceover from your sales lead. These story-driven videos beat coupon graphics because they demonstrate care and craft. Then repurpose everywhere: your website and YouTube, short social clips, recruiting, and weekly series like Meet the Crew Monday and Service Story Saturday.If you're ready to tighten your brand, activate real neighborhood advocates, and tell stories that convert, we've got your back.

保罗·托马斯·安德森（PTA）导演的新作《一战再战》在10月17日登陆大陆院线。对于内地影迷而言，这是一场长达29年的等待——从《赌城纵横》横空出世到如今，我们终于首次在内地大银幕上，正式迎来这位电影大师的作品。《一战再战》是PTA职业生涯最具商业性的电影，采用VistaVision格式拍摄。本片也成为了自1961年《独眼龙》以来，内地首部以VistaVision拷贝放映的院线片。1.43:1的特殊画幅比在全国仅有的6家IMAX GT影厅才能完整呈现，配以强尼·格林伍德精准契合影片气质的配乐，共同构筑了一场专为大银幕而生的视听盛宴。影片讲述了一个充满张力的故事：曾为极左革命组织"法兰西75"成员的鲍勃（莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥 饰），在组织因伴侣背叛而覆灭后，带着女儿薇拉隐姓埋名，过着潦倒的逃亡生活。十六年后，军官洛克乔（西恩·潘 饰）的突然出现打破了平静，为拯救女儿，鲍勃不得不重拾往日技能，踏上一场险象环生的救赎之旅。作为首位完成欧洲三大电影节最佳导演奖"大满贯"的美国导演，PTA始终在好莱坞体系内保持着独特的作者性，持续书写美国历史的B面叙事。本期播客借着《一战再战》上映的契机，特别邀请导演仇晟与柯诺作为嘉宾，与听众一同深入PTA的电影世界。从他对圣费尔南多谷的地域书写，到贯穿其作品序列的时代观察，我们共同探寻这位电影作者最独特的艺术价值。《一战再战》剧照本期嘉宾：仇晟《比如父子》《郊区的鸟》导演柯诺电影媒体人豆瓣 @柯诺电车深焦DeepFocus 编辑豆瓣 @电车《一战再战》片场照时间轴：本期播客总时长：2:55:37第一部分：《一战再战》00:03:36 《一战再战》的影厅选择的感受。00:07:22 《一战再战》的基本介绍及片尾致敬。00:09:17 关于品钦《葡萄园》的改编。00:16:22 对于《一战再战》的整体评价。00:28:00 片中对特朗普移民政策的回应。00:33:39 对于影片结尾的讨论。00:34:25 《一战再战》延续PTA作者性的地方。00:42:03 PTA在《一战再战》中的政治态度与此前作品的联系。00:43:54 《一战再战》中关于各演员演技的讨论。00:50:22 《一战再战》是PTA最商业的一部电影，与其他同类型商业导演的区别。00:58:24 格林伍德的配乐对《一战再战》影片的帮助。第二部分：PTA生涯回顾01:01:38 PTA生平介绍。01:03:42 最早是怎么认识到PTA的？01:06:29 PTA职业生涯作品的整体排序。01:10:29 圣费尔南多谷对PTA作品的影响。01:13:37 从《甘草披萨》看怀旧向的圣费尔南多谷。01:17:07 PTA与林克莱特的70年代美国青春片相比的不同。01:21:02 从《不羁夜》看作为色情行业中心的圣费尔南多谷。01:28:02 PTA与肖恩·贝克的色情行业主题电影相比的不同。01:30:32 从《血色将至》看PTA对20世纪20年代美国的态度。01:34:39 从《大师》看PTA对20世纪50年代美国的态度。01:37:49 《性本恶》对20世纪70年代美国的态度，与《不羁夜》《甘草披萨》表达的区别。01:45:06 千禧年前后的《木兰花》与《私恋失调》，PTA心态上的转变。01:56:22 三大电影节最佳导演大满贯，PTA导演技法厉害之处。02:03:30 PTA的长镜头与其他导演相比的不同之处。02:06:03 为什么说《魅影缝匠》是PTA最好的作品？02:12:11 PTA与学院派的关系。02:17:05 PTA的创作过程中受哪些导演的影响？02:25:00 PTA为代表的新兴好莱坞导演们。02:30:03 PTA为什么在《大师》之后就不去三大电影节了？02:35:08 关于PTA电影中表演的讨论。02:42:03 PTA电影中音乐的运用。02:47:51 作为MV导演的PTA。02:52:26 PTA重剪长片删减片段制作而成的短片。《一战再战》剧照素材库：PTA导演作品：《一战再战》（2025）《甘草披萨》（2021）《魅影缝匠》（2017）《Junun》（2015）《性本恶》（2014）《大师》（2012）《血色将至》（2007）《花与血》（2003，短片）《Fiona Apple: Fast as You Can》(1999,MV)《木兰花》（1999）《Fiona Apple: Across the Universe》(1998,MV)《不羁夜》（1997）《赌城纵横》（1996）《香烟与咖啡》（1993）《大炮王迪哥传》（1988）其他提及：《泰坦尼克号》（詹姆斯·卡梅隆，1997）《洛杉矶影话》（汤姆·安德森，2003）《公民凯恩》（奥逊·威尔斯，1941）《我心狂野》（大卫·林奇，1990）《银色·性·男女》（罗伯特·奥特曼，1993）《小奥德萨》（詹姆斯·格雷，1994）《世界末日》（詹姆斯·格雷，2022）《好家伙》（马丁·斯科塞斯，1990）《汉尼拔》（雷德利·斯科特，2001）《铁面无私》（布莱恩·德·帕尔玛，1987）《愤怒的公牛》（马丁·斯科塞斯，1980）《全金属外壳》（斯坦利·库布里克，1987）《漫长的告别》（罗伯特·奥特曼，1973）《原钻》（本·萨弗迪 / 约书亚·萨弗迪，2019）《夜以继日》（滨口龙介，2018）《卡波特》（贝内特·米勒，2005）《小丑》（托德·菲利普斯，2019）《老无所依》（伊桑·科恩 / 乔尔·科恩，2007）《米奇17》（奉俊昊，2025）《小宽宽》（吕克·贝松，2025）《一战再战》剧照本期使用音乐开场：Jonny Greenwood - One Battle AfterAnother中插：Jonny Greenwood - Trust Device结尾：Jonny Greenwood - Guitar for Willa制作团队监制：Peter Cat统筹：电车策划：电车剪辑：电车编辑：电车

This week we're excited to present a conversation with Paul Thomas Anderson, Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Benicio del Toro, Teyana Taylor, Regina Hall, and Chase Infiniti as they discuss their hit film One Battle After Another, which was recently presented on 70mm at our Walter Reade Theater. This conversation was moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim. In One Battle After Another, washed-up revolutionary Bob (Leonardo DiCaprio) exists in a state of stoned paranoia, surviving off-grid with his spirited, self-reliant daughter, Willa (Chase Infiniti). When his evil nemesis resurfaces after 16 years and Bob's daughter goes missing, the former radical scrambles to find her, father and daughter both battling the consequences of his past. Paul Thomas Anderson's most viscerally thrilling film to date is a total blast, an epic, comic adventure of the weird new America that spans years and stretches from across the treacherous rolling-hill highways of the southwest and beyond. Inspired by Thomas Pynchon's Vineland, but with a flavor and cinematic rush that's pure PTA, One Battle After Another is an exhilarating, ultimately moving portrait of undying commitment to family amidst the mania of our contemporary world One Battle After Another is now in theaters.

Get access to this entire episode as well as all of our premium episodes and bonus content by becoming a Hit Factory Patron for just $5/month.On the occasion of Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film One Battle After Anotherin theaters, we look back at the director's ambitious, unwieldy, and under-loved 1999 feature Magnolia starring a massive ensemble that includes returning PTA collaborators Julianne Moore, John C. Reilly, Melora Walters, Philip Seymour Hoffman, William H. Macy and Philip Baker Hall alongside a career-best Tom Cruise in a showstopper supporting turn that would net him his third (and, to date, last) Academy Award nomination for a performance. Still his longest, most sprawling effort, Magnolia is a definitively Paul Thomas Anderson picture in both milieu and concern setting its sights on flawed, idiosyncratic characters living in and around the San Fernando Valley. But Magnolia also represents a distinctive pivot in Andersons career, as he begins to operate in a decidedly more minor key that would come to define the second act of his career in the 21st century.We begin with a thorough examination of Paul Thomas Anderson as filmmaker, his strengths and his shortcomings. Then, we ask an obvious, but slyly difficult question - What exactly is Magnolia about? Finally, we discuss the film as it relates to Anderson's oeuvre, how it informs and supplements his later work and how its flaws become more apparent as his filmography evolves.Read Nick Pinkerton's piece The Master? at The Point....Our theme song is "Mirror" by Chris Fish

What Healing Really Is (and Isn't) After Betrayal Humility, Choice, and Community –with Wendi Cohen ““Just because you make the final decision does not mean you were the cause.” — Lora Cheadle “Healing” gets thrown around a lot—but in real life it's messy, non-linear, and humbling. In this intimate conversation, Lora and healer/mentor Wendi (formerly of the Chopra Center; now on the Lee Harris team) unpack what healing actually looks like after infidelity, health crises, and identity rupture—and why your “opening” matters more than any timeline. If you've ever wondered, Why don't I feel better yet? Am I doing this wrong?—this episode is for you. Lora and Wendi reveal the lived truth of recovery: three steps forward, two back; grief cycling; learning to receive; and choosing yourself even when others don't approve. You'll hear how meditation created space beyond the mind, why the body never lies, how community can “hold the frequency” when you can't, and the liberating shift from I am my story to I write my story. Expect practical reframes you can use today—especially if you're a high-achieving woman who's tired of doing it all alone. Top 3 Takeaways Healing is non-linear (and normal). Think Chutes & Ladders, not a straight line. You'll revisit layers like grief, anger, and acceptance—and that doesn't mean you're failing. Humility opens the door. Letting go of the “if I do everything right, bad things won't happen” myth creates room for curiosity, compassion, and real change. You're allowed to choose you. Boundaries, receiving support, and rewriting the narrative are acts of power. Your agency—not other people's opinions—defines your direction. Episode Highlights The “opening”: the moment you realize you can author a different story than the one you were handed. From people-pleasing to permission: upsetting others vs. honoring your inner yes. Mind-Body-Spirit integration: why meditation quiets the narrative so the body's intelligence can be heard. Community as medicine: when you can't hold the frequency, let safe containers hold it for you. Identity shifts: you are not your past roles (spouse, fixer, PTA star, marathoner); you are the one choosing what's next. Resources Mentioned Group meditation & mantra practice (Chopra Center origins) Lee Harris retreats/“Soul Magic” weekends Nature as regulation (beach, trees, grounding) A Course in Miracles prompt: “Am I willing to see this differently?” About Wendi With contagious joy and heart, all that Wendi Cohen offers is with the intention of healthy change. She has been a dynamic and instrumental force helping people from all over the world as an educator and mentor in the field of spirituality and wellness. Highly regarded for her many years at the Chopra Center for Wellbeing, she managed and facilitated their signature program, Perfect Health. Working with Dr. Deepak Chopra and being involved with cutting edge research in meditation and Ayurveda there, Wendi has been up close and personal with the brightest minds in the wellness industry. Now working with Lee Harris Energy, she is the Director of Studio Operations and a producer who uses her creative prowess, intuition and vision to support transformational work. What makes her special in this field, is that she found meditation and mindfulness on her own path to healing after being diagnosed with a rare and chronic illness in 2003. Her insatiable curiosity and ability to think outside of the box led her to looking at integrative approaches. That is when she had profound shifts in her health and also fell in love with meditation. As a result of her journey, Wendi has a deep capacity to understand the many challenges people face when looking at healing and transformation. She is also a board certified Integrative NLP Practitioner and trained in Authentic Communication. Being of service is when Wendi is the happiest - supporting people so they feel more peaceful, clear, and grounded, experiencing more love and inspiration in their lives is what lights her up. Her mantra is "follow the fun" and that is EXACTLY what she hopes to inspire in others. The Humility of Healing... By Wendi Cohen Healing is often a misunderstood journey that reveals lessons in humility and the chance for deep learning, uncovering aspects of ourselves, if and only if, we are willing to look at them. By allowing and receiving, staying open and getting creative, thinking with our hearts while feeling our bodies, there can be some profound shifts in how we experience the challenge - whether it is physical, emotional or heart based. In my case, it was learning to navigate a new 'normal' after a life-changing diagnosis that rocked my world. My path has been messy while stunningly beautiful, scary and empowering - filled with moments I'd never ever want to revisit AND also so many moments of being the recipient of so much love and generosity, from unexpected places. When we have a better understanding that healing isn't necessarily linear - that it can be like a game of chutes and ladders or riding a roller coaster that takes your breath away, heart opening and heart breaking - but with the infusion of creativity, receptivity, a sense of humor and beginning new each day, it can become less jarring.  Now twenty years later, to have had the good fortune to learn and then work with some of the most extraordinary visionaries, teachers, healers, and with my clients, I am truly humbled by it all - the good, the challenging and what has yet to come.   Favorite Quote “Healing isn't something you do once and finish.

In this snack episode, comedian Tony Deyo regales Ophira Eisenberg with some of the strangest leaps he's taken, from auditioning disastrously for Stomp—where his lack of dance skills left him drumming on himself in front of professional dancers—to jumping out of airplanes during Army ROTC, even though the first time he'd ever flown was on the way to jump school. Now a parent, he admits that those risks have given way to new kinds of adventures, like being pressured by his son into riding a 140-foot drop water slide that ripped his swim trunks. Tony talks about how he sets limits, such as refusing to pay $6 for an ice cream bar from a truck, and reflects on the challenges of raising a child alongside an aging dog that required endless vet bills. Though he once feared fatherhood would mark the end of his freedom, he says it's been the best thing in his life and hopes his son finds work he loves as much as Tony loves comedy. The episode ends with Ophira daring him to perform at his son's school fundraiser, reminding him that if he can survive a botched Stomp audition and parachuting out of planes, he can handle a PTA crowd.

Just wake up one day and realize your tolerance for nonsense just evaporated? Like… poof, gone. Suddenly, things you used to tolerate make your eye twitch. You're not overreacting. You're evolving. In this episode, I talk about what actually happens in midlife that makes your BS filter tighten up -  from hormones to mental clarity to just being done explaining yourself to people who don't deserve front-row seats in your life. Beware… You may laugh when you hear this thinking about the signs your tolerance has gone through. You know, like not guilt-texting back or volunteering for one more thing.  In this episode, I share why this “zero tolerance era” is one of the healthiest shifts you'll ever experience. Because it's not that you've become hard. It's that you've become clear.

You don't have to command a cruise ship (or a boardroom) to lead with purpose. On this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome Richard Fain, longtime chairman and former CEO of Royal Caribbean Group, for a conversation that's not about corporate leadership… but about life leadership. Richard shares timeless lessons he learned from decades steering one of the world's most innovative companies—lessons that apply just as powerfully to parenting, coaching your kid's soccer team, running a PTA fundraiser, or simply trying to create more joy at home. You'll hear how to dream bigger about your own life, build a culture of kindness and excellence in small groups, and turn the ordinary moments around you into opportunities to “deliver the WOW.” Of course, this wouldn't be the basement without a few money detours. The crew also breaks down new 401(k) rules and annuity updates, debates whether tax flexibility beats fancy planning, and celebrates Doug's birthday with trivia, laughter, and a few movie reviews along the way. By the end, you'll walk away inspired to bring a little more vision, creativity, and generosity into every corner of your world. No cruise ship required. What You'll Learn How to lead from wherever you are: Richard's lessons on building strong teams, communities, and families. No corner office needed. Turning the ordinary into extraordinary: Simple ways to “deliver the WOW” at home, work, or anywhere people count on you. Dreaming bigger about your life: Why bold vision isn't just for CEOs; it's for anyone looking to create meaning and momentum. Financial updates you can use: New 401(k) rules, annuity insights, and practical tips to strengthen your plan. The lighter side of leadership: Trivia, birthday celebrations, and a few fun detours (because we can't resist). Questions for the Basement What's one way you could “deliver the WOW” in your own life this week? Who's a leader in your everyday world (at home, work, or your community) who's made an impact on you? How can dreaming a little bigger change the way you approach your next financial or personal goal?

Send us a textGrief has a way of focusing the lens on what actually matters: how someone lived, how they treated those who couldn't fight back, and what they stood for even when it was unpopular. My dad never reffed, but he taught me everything about making life's hardest decisions—kindness first, integrity always, and the courage to do the hard right thing when it counts.We trace a life well lived: European trips, science missions to Alaska and Hawaii, a deep love of national parks, and a New Yorker's unlikely passion for country line dancing that led to a 30–year romance. We revisit tossing a baseball on city streets, marathon training before dawn, and the quiet discipline that turns effort into outcome. We share how encyclopedias on the floor, a giant Webster's dictionary, and early computers turned learning disabilities into a path forward—fueling concise communication, clear thinking, and the confidence to advocate. You'll hear about a 37–year career at Queensborough Community College, summers at NASA, an 1,100–page dissertation on wave theory, and a refusal to soften standards just to keep the peace. The throughline is leadership: empathy without condescension, accountability without cruelty, and match control rooted in respect and the spirit of the game.There's family history and service, too: caregiving after Holocaust loss, showing up for elders, single fatherhood with PTA meetings and homemade lasagna, and even building one of the first elementary school computer labs—so kids could have opportunities he never had. The takeaway is simple: love unconditionally, stay curious, work past comfort, and anchor your choices in honor. That's the playbook we use on the field and at home, and it's the legacy we hope to live up to—one “good man” moment at a time.If this story resonates, share it with someone who taught you a hard lesson with a gentle hand. Support the show

Paul Thomas Anderson himself cited 1988's RUNNING ON EMPTY as a direct influence on the new ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER, and it's not difficult to see the rhymes between these two films about former revolutionaries trying to protect their kids from the consequences of their parents' past. We'll get into those rhymes more next week, but first we devote some time to Sidney Lumet's 1988 film, which is less cat-and-mouse chase than coming-of-age family drama, anchored by a remarkable River Phoenix as the teenage son of former anti-war protesters on the run from the law. Unlike with PTA's film, there are no real bad guys in RUNNING ON EMPTY, only problems to negotiate within a rich family dynamic that is both delightful in its specificity and heartbreaking in its fragility. After that, we field some Feedback from listeners about our recent episodes on HIGHEST 2 LOWEST and THEY SHOOT HORSES, DON'T THEY?
