Sean "Diddy" Combs has been behind bars for more than two years but explosive new claims suggest the music mogul may be living a surprisingly comfortable life in federal prison. Former inmates claim Diddy has other prisoners cooking, cleaning and doing his laundry, even giving him massages, while allegedly gaining access to contraband including alcohol and a cellphone. Combs' representatives dispute the characterization and say he follows prison rules. Don is joined by Sharay Hayes, better known as "The Punisher," who testified at Diddy's federal trial about his paid sexual encounters involving Combs and Cassie Ventura. Now, The Punisher reacts to the allegations surrounding Diddy's life behind bars and takes us back inside one of the most explosive celebrity trials in recent memory.

In this episode of the Punisher Waterfowl Podcast, Damien Pittman joins his friend Matt Pomroy in the duck blind for a conversation about building a business—and making smarter decisions with its money. Matt, a financial planner with 26 years of experience, talks through how Canadian business owners can think about company vehicle purchases, business-use mileage, tax rules, and the transition from a startup to a growing business. Damien shares his own goals for Punisher Waterfowl, from planning for a future truck to dreaming of owning hunting property. Between flocks of wood ducks and mallards, the conversation also turns to hearing protection, hunting dogs, shotgun fit, and the importance of recovering game. It's an outdoor conversation about balancing the hunt with the planning that can help support it. Whether you're a hunter, small-business owner, or simply trying to get more organized with your finances, this episode offers useful questions to bring to a qualified financial professional—along with plenty of duck-blind stories along the way. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen. Sit back and relax, this is a great show Looking for new products?

Send us Fan MailToday we call Uncle Lenny as usual, and then we call him back! He is NOT happy! Then, me and Punisher catch up on the homework assignments. Wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be...I've watched worse!

elcome back to another HUGE episode of The Geekz! This week the crew dives deep into the biggest geek culture headlines, breaking news, movie rumors, collectibles, and Toy Box pickups you NEED to see!

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm so honored to introduce you all to: Outspoken whistleblower and public witness raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, online personality and content creator, podcast host and podcaster, independent researcher and reporter, theological topic and historical Mormon doctrine debater, and a fierce force to be reckoned with in exposing systemic and institutional ritual abuse: Latter-Day ChadA little bit about our guest and the themes you can expect to hear about on today's show: Raised in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Chad found Sunday meetings uninteresting as a teenager and stopped attending at 14 once he could choose. That changed around age 22. Synchronicities he could not explain, dreams that came true—including one of a classmate who died exactly as foreseen less than two weeks later—and a growing fascination with early Mormon teachings pulled him back. He began studying Joseph Smith's words, the Book of Mormon's warnings about secret combinations, and the occult beliefs of elites. What started as Instagram memes under the name Latter-Day Chad evolved into a fearless public witness.He describes himself as a believing Mormon who is also “very controversial.” He loves the Book of Mormon's cosmology yet refuses to stay silent when its own prophecies about infiltration and corruption appear to be unfolding. He points to the “LDS Church of Satan,” a group described in victim statements as using Mormon theology while serving Lucifer, pretending to be ordinary members while seeking power in Utah government and the Church. Central figures in the story he has documented include advertising executive Gordon Bowen - called by some the “Mormon Epstein” - former therapist David Hamblin, and former Utah prosecutor David Levitt. Hamblin's daughters alleged ritual abuse, trafficking to powerful people, and a role for Bowen as “the Punisher.” An on-tape conversation captured Hamblin discussing personality-splitting methods consistent with trauma-based mind control. Court documents from Bowen's divorce include journal entries describing voices, ritual themes, and writings he acknowledged but claimed not to remember. The investigation known as Operation See No Evil was shut down despite recorded admissions and agents who believed the case had high likelihood of guilt. Utah media stayed quiet. Church-connected lawyers and officials closed ranks.Chad did not treat this as abstract history. He went to the Church Office Building with questions about Bowen's role in the Salt Lake Temple open house and his friendships with apostles. Security trespassed him and the video recording went viral. Influencers who once welcomed his apologetic content turned on him, spreading rumors and pressuring platforms. His temple recommend was revoked after he spoke about ritual abuse. He was informed a membership council was coming and that excommunication was likely because he would not recant. He has said he is willing to “fall on that sword” because he believes the Lord asked him to expose what the scriptures call secret combinations. The personal cost has been high. Yet Chad frames his work as advocacy for survivors whose stories were buried by institutional self-protection. He has independently verified details through people who know victims and the accused. He ends many messages the same way: expose the hidden works of darkness, scatter the watchmen who fell asleep, and pray with the conviction that what is asked in faith will happen.Latter-Day Chad is not a polished institution man. He is a young believer who grew tired of fairy-tale religion and decided the scriptures meant what they said. He has been trespassed, tracked, slandered, and threatened with expulsion from the very community whose founding texts he is trying to honor. In doing so he has given a voice to survivors whose cases never reached a courtroom and has forced a conversation many would rather bury. Whether one accepts every connection he draws or not, his willingness to stand in the open when others chose silence is rare. He has asked people across faith lines to set theology aside long enough to look at the evidence and demand accountability. In an age of institutional insulation, that kind of stubborn, scripture-rooted courage is itself a form of light. He continues the work because, in his words, the day of vengeance begins at the Lord's house - and someone has to be willing to say so out loud.

Wolverine gehört mit dem Punisher und Deadpool zu den beliebtesten Comichelden für Erwachsene. Dementsprechend gespannt war ich natürlich, ob man eine weichgespülte Version bekommt. Und Insomniac liefert hier definitiv ab. Im Gegensatz zu den vom Studio gemachten Open World Spider-Man Spielen, geht es hier linear zu. Man macht keinen Hehl daraus, dass es sich hier um einen Actiontitel handelt. Ob vom Gameplay bis zum Gewaltgrad, hier ist alles getrimmt auf Erwachsenenunterhaltung. Die Geschichte ist nett erzählt, und die Optik passt, aber mit ca. 15 Stunden ist man auch schnell durch. Selbst wenn man auf die Platintrophäe aus ist, braucht man nicht viel länger. Hier stellt sich die Frage, ob der UVP in Relation stimmt. Das muss aber natürlich jeder für sich selbst entscheiden. Für mich gilt: besser 15 Stunden gut unterhalten als 30 Stunden schlecht. Insgesamt macht das Spiel trotz einiger Schwächen verdammt viel richtig, und reiht sich in die guten Vertreter der Comic-Helden Umsetzungen ein. Hier bekommt man wofür Wolverine bekannt ist, kompromisslose Action für Erwachsene.

Everyone loves Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle but does anyone remember when Thomas Jane did it? The guys are joined by comic book expert to discuss the 2004 adaptation of The Punisher and Frank's breathtaking virtuoso undercover acting performance, retirement at the ripe age of 32, sleepy John Travolta, all of the Machiavellian spy work, the great fight scene with the Russian and much more.

Marvel Legends Punisher Hulkbuster Armor | Small Talk | Episode 165: Iron Vengeance! by

Adi Shankar es uno de esos productores cuyo nombre casi nadie conoce, aunque seguramente hayas visto algo suyo. Empezó financiando thrillers como The Grey o Lone Survivor con un modelo de preventas que le dejaba hacer cine sin pedir permiso a ningún estudio, y con Dredd acabó teniendo una película de culto. Después se lanzó a rodar cortos no autorizados de Punisher, Venom o Power Rangers, que las propias marcas intentaron retirar. De ahí pasó a Netflix, donde ha llevado Castlevania y Devil May Cry, y por el camino acabó en los tribunales para defender su sitio en una franquicia que él mismo había levantado. Repasamos su filmografía por etapas, cómo se financia un cine que ningún estudio quiere tocar y lo que tiene en marcha, con Duke Nukem a la cabeza. ️ Con XeviPanda y Felipe Masterwikie ✂️ Edición: Xevi Música: Suno

Huntproof just changed the game for dog owners and trainers. Nathan Marks and Steven from Huntproof reveal the brand-new update that makes training logs faster, cleaner, and way easier to use - plus the upcoming Kennel Connect feature that lets trainers and owners stay synced in real time. Damien Pittman gets an early look at the release and walks through the biggest upgrades firsthand: a larger map, compass and wind direction, color changes for better visibility, walk-up marks, smarter bird-station mapping, dog skill tracking, and a new profile system that stores pedigrees, certificates, medical records, and more. If you train one dog or manage a whole kennel, this update is built to save time and keep everything organized. Nathan Marks breaks down the new journaling and mapping workflow, including how Kennel Connect lets trainers assign sessions to specific dogs, share updates, and keep owners in the loop without endless texts. Steven adds the product and user-experience perspective, explaining how the app is designed to feel lighter, simpler, and more useful for real-world dog owners. Together, they explain why the app is evolving from a hunt journal into a full legacy and communication system for the dog world. You'll discover: how the redesigned map makes training sessions faster to build and easier to read why wind direction and compass tools matter when you're mapping marks and blinds how dog profiles now track skills, paperwork, and training progress over time what Kennel Connect does for owners who want to follow training without bothering the trainer every day how the app handles privacy, data protection, and opt-in sharing The conversation goes beyond features and gets into the bigger shift in hunting culture - from old-school “figure it out yourself” to a more connected, transparent, and accountable relationship between trainers, owners, and kennels. Nathan also explains the pricing, how premium users get access, and why the app is built to work for both serious retriever people and everyday hunters who want a better record of their season. Perfect for dog trainers, kennel owners, retriever handlers, and waterfowl hunters who want a smarter way to track training, hunting history, and dog development. If you've ever wished your training notes, hunt logs, and dog records could all live in one place, this is the episode to hear. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tot seguit, us oferim un reportatge complet sobre el desenvolupament del film: com arribem fins aquí després de No Way Home, el relleu en la direcció i la decisió de tornar Spider-Man a una aventura pels carrers de Nova York. Després entrem de ple en la pel·lícula i analitzem les seves diferents escenes: el brillant pròleg, com desenvolupa la seva relació amb MJ, la integració del personatge de Sadie Sink, la química amb el Punisher, la batalla amb Hulk, la lluita contra la Mà i un tercer acte atípic dins del gènere. La tertúlia també la podeu trobar en vídeo: https://youtu.be/Vf3JhqCcma0 Us hi esperen l'Ignasi Arbat, la Marta Sanz, l'Aram Bonmatí i en Jordi d'Us la Recomano. Ens acompanyeu?

A brutally honest, funny, and surprisingly thoughtful episode about hunting, friendship, and the stories people usually don't tell on mic. Damien and Craig get loose on everything from epic hunting blunders to why the best part of waterfowling might be the people it brings into your life. They start with behind-the-scenes chaos most listeners never hear, including voiceover mishaps, last-minute schedule changes, and the massive amount of work involved in preparing for the National Retriever Championship. The conversation then takes a deeper turn as they discuss online negativity, keyboard courage, misinformation, and whether the waterfowl community could make a real difference by focusing more on positive stories. They also dig into hunting regulations, border-crossing requirements for traveling with dogs, and why even conservation officers can't possibly know every rule, species, and exception off the top of their heads. Then comes the storytelling fans love most. Craig shares some unforgettable hunting disasters, including the story behind his legendary “Triple Threat” nickname, while Damien tells a field story that proves every hunter eventually has a day they'd rather forget. Along the way, they talk about the unexpected friendships created through hunting, podcasting, fundraising events, and simply making the effort to show up for people. This episode is a reminder that waterfowling is about far more than birds and gear. It's about the laughs, the embarrassing moments, the shared experiences, and the genuine relationships that keep people coming back. Perfect for waterfowl hunters, retriever fans, and anyone who enjoys a good story told by people who actually lived it. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen.

In this episode, Charlie and Joey delve into the latest Spider-Man film, exploring its story, performances, and how it fits into the Marvel universe. They also discuss other upcoming movies, the state of streaming services, and their thoughts on the Punisher and Jean Grey.

Stephanie Fulton tells us some of the history of Prairieland Punishers Roller Derby in central Illinois. Stephanie also explains the rules. The team is currently recruiting and is all inclusive.

Crane hunts, gear obsession, and the truth about what really makes a waterfowler tick. Damien, Phil, and Craig get blunt about Ontario's new Sandhill crane season, the social media backlash around regulations, and why so many hunters react before they actually read the rules. The conversation gets real fast: Is the outrage about conservation, or is it just the internet doing what it does best? The guys break down why the crane hunt is limited to specific northern WMUs, why stamp sales and population density matter, and why a flock you see in your own field does not automatically mean a hunt should open in your backyard. Craig brings boots-on-the-ground context from northern Ontario, Phil adds the reality of bird numbers and hunter behavior, and Damien pushes the bigger question: are some people actually interested in the science, or just in blasting everything that flies? You'll also hear a sharp turn into pre-season gear talk, including what new products caught their attention after show season wrapped up. Craig shares the swamp stick and Rixie dog stand blind he picked up, Phil explains why he still wants to get his hands on Rig'Em Right Mallards, and Damien gets into the obsession with fit, shims, and why he's seriously considering a 20 gauge after testing slower-velocity loads. The conversation also covers boots, waders, Gore-Tex, Filson fit tips, and why the right footwear can make or break a hunt. If you're the kind of hunter who reads the regulations, cares about conservation, wants to upgrade gear wisely, or simply enjoys a no-filter conversation about ducks, geese, cranes, and the occasional bad take online, this episode is for you. It's part gear talk, part reality check, and part reminder that not every hot take deserves a reaction. Essential listening for waterfowlers heading into the season who want the bigger picture—not just the loudest comment thread. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen.

In this week's episode, I take a look back at the movies and streaming shows I watched in Summer 2026 and rate them. This coupon code will get you 25% off the ebooks in the Ghost Armor series at my Payhip store: FALLARMOR The coupon code is valid through September 21, 2026. So if you need a new ebook this fall, we've got you covered! TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 319 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is September the 4th, 2026, and today I'm looking back at the movies and streaming shows I watched over Summer 2026. We will also have Coupon of the Week and an update on my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. So let's start off with Coupon of the Week. This week's coupon code will get you 25% off the ebooks in the Ghost Armor series at my Payhip store. That coupon code is FALLARMOR. As always, you can get the coupon code and the links to my Payhip store available in the show notes for this episode. This coupon code will be valid through September 21st, 2026, so if you need a new ebook for this fall, we have got you covered. Now an update on my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. I'm pleased to report that the rough draft of Blade of Visions is done. It came to 99,000 words. It'd be kind of cool if it came to 100,000, but as I've learned in the 15 years I've been doing this, it's not a good idea to pad things for length. Editing is underway. I'm about 15% through the first pass of edits. I'm working on the cover design, so I'm on good track to have the book out before the end of the month. I also wrote a tie-in short story called Winter Crown and don't forget that [newsletter] subscribers will get a free ebook copy of that short story when Blade of Visions comes out later this month. So this makes a very excellent time to subscribe to my new release newsletter. I am also 12,000 words into Elven-Warlock, which will be the seventh book in the Half-Elven Thief series. Hopefully that will be out in October, if all goes well. In audiobook news, I think Blade of Thieves (as narrated by Brad Wills) and Cloak of Worlds (as narrated by Hollis McCarthy) are now finally available at all the usual audiobook stores, which includes Audible, Apple, Amazon, Kobo, Google Play, Chirp, and all the others. So if you want to listen to those if you are going on a Labor Day road trip, you can check those out. A reminder that Stealth and Spells Online: The Complete LitRPG trilogy (narrated by C.J. McAllister) is also available on Audible, so check that out. That's 32 hours long and that would also cover all your Labor Day travels. So that is where I'm at with my current writing, publishing and audiobook projects. 00:02:22 Main Topic of the Week: Summer 2026 Movie Roundup So let's move on to our main topic this week. Our main topic this week is the Summer 2026 Movie Roundup and I always enjoy doing those. These episodes are a little less serious than some of the other episodes and it's fun to talk about things I enjoyed and that you might enjoy as well. And I did see a lot of new movies this summer. In fact, I went to the actual theater four times for Masters of the Universe, The Odyssey, Spider-Man, and Coyote vs. Acme, which is probably more than I've gone in a single season since before COVID times. So as usual, here are the movies I saw this summer (rated from least favorite to most favorite). The grades are totally subjective and based on nothing but my own thoughts and opinions. First up is The Breadwinner, which came out in 2026. This is basically standup comedian Nate Bargatze's act come to life as a movie. If you've seen Bargatze's standup, his usual routine is to portray himself as the dumb husband and bumbling Girl Dad, which is actually quite clever from a comedic standpoint since you're unlikely to have outraged mobs calling for your head if all you're doing is making fun of yourself. Anyway, Bargatze portrays Nate Wilcox, the best Toyota salesman in Nashville. (Don't worry, this is the first of only many product placement moments.) He lets his wife Kate manage the household and do the bulk of the work with their three daughters. When Kate's invention takes off on Shark Tank, she has to go to South Korea for two weeks to oversee manufacturing, leaving Nate in charge of the kids. Comedic chaos ensues. On the positive side of this movie, I did approve how this movie showed a married couple trying to work through a rough patch and do what's right for their kids and each other in a semi-productive way rather than blowing up their lives over nonsensical trivialities in the style of Eat, Pray, Love. On the downside, there was a lot of product placement, to the point where it at times felt like an extended commercial with bits of plot jammed in between product endorsement. No doubt most of the production budget came from product placement money. Will Forte was funny as an eccentric roofing contractor and Martin Herlihy as a shifty DoorDash employee. Kumail Nanjiani was funny as Nate's rival salesman at the car dealership. So overall, I would say this was blandly amusing and inoffensive with some funny slapstick moments. Overall grade: C- Next up is Supergirl, which came out in 2026. This movie really was sort of a strange combination of John Wick and the human trafficking subplot from 2020's Black Widow. The end result wasn't quite as good as Superman from 2025, alas. I did like this movie's interpretation of Supergirl. Kara Zor-El's departure from Krypton was way more traumatic than Superman's, so she's dealing with her unresolved emotional issues by traveling from planet to planet with red suns and getting hammered since the same yellow sun that gives Kryptonians their superpowers on Earth also keeps them from getting drunk because their bodies process alcohol too efficiently. However, Kara comes to a planet where a girl named Ruthye lives. Ruthye's family has been slaughtered by ruthless brigands yet led by Krem of the Yellow Hills and she's going on a quest for revenge. When Ruthye tries to recruit Kara for the quest, she's not interested, but then Krem steals Kara's spaceship and poisons her dog Krypto. Krem carries the antidote on his person, so now Kara and Ruthye team up to get vengeance on Krem and to heal Krypto. Krem is a nasty piece of work and he and his space gang travel from planet to planet abducting women to be their wives. I think the problem was that Krem was kind of a boring but nasty villain, but he was still boring. He was basically a space thug with too many piercings. Lex Luthor from 2025 Superman, by contrast, was a really interesting villain, this malignant narcissist who knows that his obsession with Superman is over the top, but he's going to act on it anyway. Additionally, I don't think this version of Supergirl is quite capable of being a lead character on her own. She'd make a superb secondary character, but I don't think she could quite carry a movie on her own. And Jason Momoa was pretty good as Lobo. Overall grade: C- Next up is Troy, which came out in 2004. I wanted to see this either before or after I watched The Odyssey this summer and ended up watching it the day before I went to see The Odyssey. I would say this movie was slow and ponderous, but I did enjoy watching it. This is an adaption of The Iliad and has the sort of slow stateliness of epic films from the '60s. It had good performances and good battle scenes. Brian Cox was enjoyable as a scenery chewing Agamemnon and Brad Pitt worked as Achilles. Interestingly, his version of Achilles reminded me of the interpretation of Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen from Dune 2 as sort of a violent psychopath with his own twisted sense of honor. Oddly, despite the fact that this was rather a long movie, the ending seems a bit rushed, like we needed to hurry up and get to the Trojan Horse. It was amusing how Achilles' relationship with Patroclus was changed to "cousin" for the modern audience, but Greek views on sexuality would definitely be unpalatable with both right-wing and left-wing versions of the modern mind, which is a good thing because while the Greeks contributed a great deal to the development of civilization, they were into a lot of unsavory stuff. So overall, I would say this was a fun, epic movie, but I think this walked so the 2026 version of The Odyssey could run. Amusing fact: Christopher Nolan was apparently supposed to direct this, but the deal fell through and he got Batman Begins as a consolation prize instead. Overall grade: B- Next up is The Dink, which came out in 2026. This is an Apple TV comedy movie about pickleball of all things. I feel like this was made because some Apple executive got made fun of by some tennis players for playing pickleball and then decided to take revenge through media. Jake Johnson plays Dustin Boyd, a washed up former child tennis star who now works at his father's tennis club. The club has difficulties because of a growing influx of pickleball players who the hardcore tennis players hate. Dustin's father decides to use the club's bylaws to force a duel match to decide the issue, in the grand tradition of wacky comedy stakes. Dustin really wants to play the duel match, but his wrist is injured in an accident. To get his wrist mobility back, the doctor suggested he play some pickleball and Dustin views this as beneath him, but he really wants to play again, so he signs up for pickleball. This ends up being a wacky sports company/buddy movie as Dustin gradually befriends an eccentric older pickleball player. Ed Harris should really do more comedic roles. He was great as Dustin's stern, yet unscrupulous father. I do admire Apple TV's dedication to making random stuff. Overall grade: B- Next up is Green and Gold, which came out in 2025, and this is a melodrama about a farmer and his granddaughter dealing with the grim economic realities of farming. This is set in 1992/1993 era Wisconsin. Buck refuses to modernize his dairy farm in Door County, Wisconsin. His granddaughter Jenny is a talented musician and also a skilled farmer, and Buck wants her to take over the farm one day, but Jenny's ambitions are looking elsewhere. Events come to a head when Jenny realizes that Buck is deeply in debt to the bank, which is about to foreclose on the farm. However, Buck and the chief banker have a personal animosity, so they settle on a bet. If the Green Bay Packers win a Super Bowl title in 1993, the banker will give Buck one more year to turn things around on the farm. Meanwhile, Jenny begins to wonder if her music ambitions might generate the money to save the farm. Of course, if you are familiar with the history of the Packers, you know that they won a Super Bowl in 1996, not 1993. The movie has carried on the back of the very strong performances of its actors. It also has an ambiguously happy ending, as is true with so many things in farming. I like this movie because I've spent a lot of my life in the American Midwest, [and] I did appreciate how it shows the difficulties of the farming life. Also, this is important: a fall from a ladder is a plot point. Ladder safety is important, people! If you are going up a ladder, for heaven's sake don't climb the ladder in high heels like the character in question does. Wear sensible, well-fitting shoes with good soles. A very long time ago, I used to work with a guy who would climb extension ladders in cowboy boots. It is nothing short of the mercy of God that he didn't fall off and shatter half the bones in his body. Overall grade: B Next up is Grumpy Old Men, which came out in 1993. Apparently this is set in Wabasha, Minnesota, which is amusing because filming actually took place in several areas in the Twin Cities in Eastern Minnesota, but not actually in Wabasha. I found that personally amusing because I'm quite familiar with the area and so I recognize several filming locations. Anyway, the movie is about two retirees, Max and John, who are enemies and have been enemies for years, but Max is lonely and wants to get married again, and John is about to lose his house to the IRS due to tax problems. Things come to a head when an attractive literature professor moves across the street and both Max and John take an interest in her and start competing for her affections. However, it turns out that Max and John are actually best friends whose love language happens to be hatred and practical jokes, kind of like Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner, but more on them below. This was a good character comedy/drama. It was interesting that the professor was an early version of the Manic Pixie Dream Girl trope, albeit several decades before someone came up with the term. This is worth watching both as a character and comedy drama and a time capsule of the 1990s. Sometimes a movie ages a bit badly (Airplane and the Thomas Crown Affair from the Spring Movie Roundup come to mind), but this didn't. The sequel Grumpier Old Men from 1995 is basically the same movie, but with the characters acting about 20% dumber so a sitcom style plot can happen. Still entertaining, but not as good as the first one, so Grumpier Old Men only gets a B-, but Grumpy Old Men gets a B+. Next up is Masters of the Universe, which came out in 2026. It was amusing to read reviews of this movie because people thought way too hard about a movie that is essentially about battling action figures. Anyway, this was pretty good. It was nice to see a movie about a science fiction property that doesn't actually hate the source material. Basically it's a live action version of the cartoons from the '80s, albeit with somewhat more thoughtful moments. I heard someone suggest that it was close in tone to Thor: Ragnarok, and that seems accurate. The plot is that Skeletor conquers Eternia and 10-year-old Prince Adam is sent with the Sword of Power through a magical portal to Earth to keep him and the sword out of Skeletor's reach. However, Adam loses the sword while passing through the gate and 15 years later is working in human resources. He's still seeking for the sword despite his therapist trying to convince him that it was a trauma-induced fantasy. However, his persistence pays off and he does find the sword. Teela, who is one of the resistance leaders against Skeletor's rule, comes to Earth to find him and bring him back, but Skeletor's minions arrive to claim the sword as well. Adam and Teela escape back to Eternia and it's up to Adam to find a way to use the Sword of Power to become the hero that Eternia needs. Dolph Lundgren's cameo was great. Overall, I would say this is a fun movie to watch, especially if you're a Millennial or Gen Xer who saw the cartoons or the live action movie back in the '80s. Jared Leto has something of an increasingly questionable reputation these days, but he did a good job as Skeletor, played him halfway between the solemn gravitas of the 1987 version and the malevolent comedic cornball of the cartoons. Of course, in my opinion, the Frank Langella version from 1987 is the best version of Skeletor since he placed it with all the seriousness of a Shakespearean villain monologue at the Royal Shakespeare Company. In hindsight, it wasn't terribly surprising that this underperformed at the box office. It felt like it was made for guys my age, not for kids. I would've been comfortable bringing an eight-year-old to see The Mandalorian and Grogu or Super Mario Galaxy, but I would've been less certain bringing a kid that age to see Masters of the Universe. Additionally, it seemed very Marvel in tone, and I think the overall mood of the US these days is less "Marvel Cinematic Universe quips and banter" and more sort of the grimness of The Odyssey, which we'll talk about shortly. Overall grade: B+ Next up is Young Washington, which came out in 2026, a biopic of the early life of George Washington, covering how he more or less accidentally started the French and Indian War and how he recovered his reputation at the Battle of Braddock's Field. To be fair, the international situation at the time meant that someone was going to start the French and Indian War. It just happened to be Washington, who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. Overall, I liked this. It was reasonably historically accurate, though some of the emotional and family dialogue at times was a bit clunky. Additionally, Washington was portrayed as having revolutionary leanings much earlier in life than he actually did, since when he was a young man, he had no thoughts of being anything but a British subject and officer. That said, some of the most implausible stuff in the movie actually happened in real life. Like if I were to write in a novel that the future president of the United States personally rallied the army's rear guard to save as many men as possible from an ambush, and in the process had two horses shot out from under him and ended up with bullet holes in his hat and coat (all while fighting continuously), you would probably find that a bit implausible, but it actually happened that way. Washington's daring actions during that battle were one of the reasons he was appointed commander of the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War, that and there weren't many other colonials with as much experience of military command as Washington. In that vein, the battle scenes were the best part of the movie. They captured the brutality and messiness of 18th Century warfare without being especially graphic. Anyway, I'm glad this is getting a sequel. Maybe we'll end up with a Young Washington Cinematic Universe. Overall grade: B+ Next up is Meet the Parents, which came out in 2000, and this is probably one of the apex forms of cringe comedy. Ben Stiller plays Greg Focker, a nurse who's in love with schoolteacher Pam Burns. Greg wants to marry Pam, but overhears a phone call with her sister where she says her fiancé asked permission of her traditional father first. Greg decides that he's going to ask Pam's father's permission first to get off on the right foot, and so accompanies Pam to her sister's wedding and her parents' house to, as the title says, Meet the Parents. However, Pam's father is the former CIA counterintelligence officer Jack, and he and Greg immediately get on each other's nerves. To make things worse, the airline has lost Greg's luggage. From these two starting premises follow a cascading series of hilarious disasters that accumulate in a septic tank fire on the lawn. I'm not sure, but I think I saw this one in the theaters when it came out in 2000, and I thought it was funny then. With 26 years of additional life experience under the belt, I still think it's pretty funny, though you could still tell that this movie was filmed before 9/11 because if Greg had his airport meltdown seen today, the consequences would've been much worse. Overall grade: B+ Next up is O Brother Where Art Thou, which came out in 2000. This is a very, very, very specific adaptation of The Odyssey directed by the Coen brothers. George Clooney plays Everett, a convict who escapes from a chain gang in Mississippi during the Great Depression. He wants to find a treasure and he recruits fellow convicts Delmar and Peter to assist him. Along the way, Everett and his team encountered 1930s era versions of the Sirens, the cyclops, the blind prophet Tiresias, and other characters and foes from the original Odyssey myth. Everett and his friends end up running a scam where they pretend to be a Christian music group, but as it turns out, they're actually pretty good at singing, so this leads to unexpected hilarity and opportunities. This was also a very funny movie. Imagine The Odyssey is a comedy with a lot of singing set in the Deep South during the Depression, and you're there. If you're a fan of bluegrass music, this is worth watching. If you've seen Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey, it's worth watching this just to ponder how the same source material can produce such wildly divergent interpretations. If you don't care about The Odyssey, then this is still a fun movie to watch. Proof: I mentioned to someone that I had seen this and she responded that she both loved the movie and was surprised to learn that he had in fact been inspired by The Odyssey. Overall grade: A- Next up is Hoppers, which came out in 2026. Like most Pixar movies, this was very high concept. Unlike many recent Pixar movies, it wasn't too depressing and didn't disappear up its own tailpipe. In the city of Beaverton, hot tempered girl Mabel bonds with her grandmother in their favorite place, a woodland grove favored by beavers. Years later, Mabel is a biology student under Dr. Fairfax, but is neglecting her studies to face off against her nemesis, the popular yet sketchy Mayor Jerry of Beaverton. Mayor Jerry wants to build an expressway that will wipe out the woodland grove, and he's perfectly within his rights to do it since no animals have been found living there. Since Mabel's grandmother has died, she's unwilling to give up the grove. However, Dr. Fairfax's research might give her a way. Dr. Fairfax has worked out a way to temporarily transfer human consciousness to a robotic beaver capable of speaking to real beavers, much like the plot of Avatar. In a funny scene, Fairfax angrily denies that it's just like Avatar. Mabel gets the idea to use this to convince real beavers to settle in the grove, thereby thwarting Mayor Jerry's plans. This touches off both a wacky yet poignant adventure. The plot was very well structured and it followed the proper rules of story structure, which I've talked about before. Mabel definitely is a protagonist who takes action, but experiences setbacks and problems of her own creation. It was pretty good. I say it was a return to form for Pixar after some of their weaker movies in the 2020s. Overall grade: A Now it's time for my three favorite movies of summer 2026, all of which I actually saw in the theater. First up is Coyote versus Acme, which came out in 2026. This movie had an extra surge of popularity from the fact that Warner Brothers canceled it as a tax write-off, but distributor Ketchup Entertainment revived it. That makes it a plucky underdog since Warner Brothers senior executives are kind of like the apex version of soulless corporate bug men. Like if I wrote characters in my books who acted like Warner Brothers senior executives, people would think I was being didactic and heavy-handed. Anyway, after decades of failures in efforts to capture the Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote decides to sue Acme Corporation for its numerous defective products. Coyote teams up with a lazy strip mall lawyer named Kevin Avery, who specializes in getting small settlements from Acme. However, Avery and Coyote end up filing a massive lawsuit against Acme, which means they'll face the full wrath of Acme Corporation, including its ace lawyer Buddy Crane and its ruthless CEO, Foghorn Leghorn. What follows is a comedic courtroom battle as Coyote and Avery try to defeat Acme Corporation, defeat its sinister plans, and Coyote starts to realize that Road Runner might actually be his best friend. Both quite amusing and touching, and I'm glad this was rescued from the tax write-off vault. Overall grade: A Next up is The Odyssey, which came out in 2026. This wasn't quite as good as Oppenheimer in 2023 in my opinion, but it was still very good and very much worth seeing. It was weird that The Odyssey was briefly a football in the never-ending US culture war scrum because the movie isn't really political and doesn't really have a message beyond "war is destructive and bad", which every sensible person would agree with, and a lesser message of "violating the law of morality has unforeseen cascading bad consequences, including the destruction of civilization", which is also quite true and was one of the themes of Oppenheimer. Nolan himself dismissed the controversies as "irrelevant" and "part of the territory" since no one had actually seen the movie yet, and given that The Odyssey has made a billion and a half dollars as of this recording, I think that may have proved his point. I imagine the scrutiny from Batman fans back in the 2010s was way more intense since in the modern era, many people care more deeply about the accuracy of Batman than The Odyssey. I do think the debate over the historical accuracy in The Odyssey is pointless because the Odyssey is myth, not history. The Iliad and The Odyssey are a lot like Arthurian myth in terms of their actual historicity. Even when Arthurian legend was massively popular with English kings and nobles in the late medieval and early modern period (for example, Henry VIII's older brother was named Arthur in imitation of King Arthur), the version of Arthurian myth they celebrated and wished to emulate had virtually no connection to the reality of Britain in the 500s AD and was instead a sort of fantasy version of their own time in the 14th and 15th centuries. By the time The Odyssey was written down, no doubt a similar process was underway. Both The Iliad and The Odyssey and the Arthurian cycle probably have a kernel of historical truth buried underneath the tales of magic swords, sirens, cyclopses, and vengeful witches with magic islands. There likely was a Romano-British warlord who might have been named Arthur (or possibly Ambrosius Aurelianus) who held off the Saxons for a while before he was overwhelmed and killed. Likewise, Heinrich Schliemann was a highly eccentric and very sketchy crazy rich guy, but he did prove that there really was some version of the city of Troy that was destroyed at the end of the Bronze Age. But everything beyond those basic details came from thousands of years of embellishments and flourishes from later poets and writers. So arguing about the historical accuracy of The Odyssey is a bit like arguing if Star Wars portrays faster than light travel in an accurate way. That kind of argument is just missing the point entirely. It's also interesting to see how modern standards clashed with the ancient mindset. You know how I always say that everywhere in the United States is exactly the same right until it really, really isn't? I think ancient people are just like us until they really, really weren't. Like ancient people would have been superstitious to an extent that even the most credulous crystal and aura influencer on TikTok would find horrifying and frequently violent in a way that the most strident self-defense advocate would find shocking. The Odyssey's version of Odysseus feels guilt and remorse over his actions in a way an actual ancient Greek probably wouldn't have, but so what? This is The Odyssey viewed through the lens of the 21st century, just as those English nobles viewed the myth of King Arthur and his knights through the lens of their time. As I mentioned with Troy above, the ancient Greeks were often quite brutal and would celebrate sacking an enemy city. One side note before we get to the movie, I probably found it funnier than I should have how Nolan favorably cited classicist Emily Wilson's translation of The Odyssey as a source, and Wilson then had an extended and unintentionally comedic multi-article crashout about how much she hated the movie and of course how much she hated the commemorative Trojan Horse popcorn bucket. Apparently Wilson hated the movie so much she's going to do a new translation of The Odyssey, much to her publisher's baffled dismay. No one does offended huffy petulance quite like an academic. Anyway, back to the movie. It follows the familiar story of Odysseus through Christopher Nolan's preference for non-linear storytelling and practical effects. I did think it was interesting how in this interpretation, Odysseus explicitly connected the ruse of the Trojan Horse with the collapse of the Bronze Age and the rise of the Sea Peoples. It's also probably the most supernatural film Nolan has ever done with actual fantasy and supernatural elements as opposed to science fiction like Inception, Tenant, and Interstellar. Odysseus talks to Athena throughout the movie and it's left up to the viewer's interpretation whether or not he's actually talking to Athena or his own guilt-ridden hallucinations. That said, Odysseus encounters a witch with actual magic powers and travels to the underworld to speak with the shades of the dead, so it's entirely possible he's talking to the actual Athena. In this version, as I mentioned, Odysseus is guilt-ridden over the ruse of the Trojan Horse, which is shown as a violation of the sacred hospitality of Zeus's law and as great a crime as the creation of the atomic bomb in Oppenheimer, which of course is similar to Oppenheimer, where Oppenheimer's creation of the atomic bomb is treated similarly. There are also some genuinely scary sequences in the movie. The bit with the underworld is very spooky, the cyclops is actually quite frightening, and the character of Circe reaches the level of scary previously attained by Heath Ledger's version of The Joker in The Dark Knight. If Nolan ever decides he wants to do a horror movie, it will probably be one of the scariest ones ever made. To sum up, The Odyssey has great performances, great spectacle, great cinematography, and great action sequences. As an interesting interpretation of the original myth, definitely worth seeing. I think you can tell it was a great movie because of all the arguments on the Internet about "what does it really mean?" Great art often has that effect. Overall grade: A The final of my three favorite movies of [Summer] 2026 is Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which came out in 2026. There's a rumor, and I don't know if it's true or not, that Tom Holland found the experience of working with Christopher Nolan on The Odyssey so eye-opening that he insisted that if they made another Spider-Man movie, it had to have a reason for existing other than "make a lot of money". If this story is true, it clearly worked. Previously, I though the two best Spider-Man movies were Spider-Man 2 from 2004 and Spider-Man: No Way Home from 2021. I must now amend that opinion to say that there are three best Spider-Man movies and Spider-Man: Brand New Day is one of the three. It is pretty good. I would've trimmed it here and there, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and is an excellent Spider-Man story that totally captures the essence of the character within a good story. It takes place four years after the events of No Way Home erased everyone's memory that Peter Parker was Spider-Man. Peter has now been crime fighting full time, but it is taking a severe toll on his emotions and personal life that he's deliberately ignoring. Meanwhile, Spider-Man has become the beloved crime fighter of New York, trusted by both the NYPD and the Federal Department of Damage Control, which is a reoccurring frenemy for superheroes from other movies. When someone launches an attack on the headquarters of Damage Control, the director recruits Peter to fight their new enemy, a mysterious figure who uses telepathy to possess people from a distance. Peter is the only one who can sense it thanks to his spider sense, and he's also the only one able to resist the telepath's possession abilities. But despite his resistance to possession, fighting a telepath is a dangerous proposition for someone with as many emotional issues as Peter, and things start to spiral out of control when the telepath starts digging into his life. But there's another lesson Peter has to learn. People (and especially superheroes) who take the federal government at its word tend to regret it. For that matter, ignoring his emotional issues is causing Peter's spider powers to start acting in strange ways. But of course, at the end of the day, Spider-Man always follows his conscience, no matter how high the cost to him personally. Definitely an enjoyable movie. All the scenes with Spider-Man and Punisher were great, and the two of them had a great dynamic together. A few other Marvel Cinematic Universe people show up, but this is probably one of the most standalone movies the MCU has done in a while. Of course, the risk of MCU Continuity Lockout is always there (which is one of the reasons I started writing Half-Eleven Thief in 2023). Overall grade: A So I would say it was a pretty good summer for movies. It's also valuable lessons in not taking the Internet too seriously, which too many people do nowadays. There are all these dedicated analyses on X, Threads, and Reddit in June and May explaining why The Odyssey was going to fail for whatever reason, and instead it made $1.5 billion. So I think that's a good lesson in not taking everything you read on the internet a little too seriously. So that's it for this week. Thanks for listening to The Pulp Writer Show.

I denne uge tænder Poptillægget for regnen, vindmaskinerne og tårekanalerne, når vi lytter os igennem Phoebe Bridgers tredje album ‘Lost Weekend’. The Atlantic kalder det: ’Et perfekt album til et frustrerende årti’. Det er muligvis også det perfekte album til overgangsårstiden; at bevæge sig fra en tilstand til en anden, fra udadvendt sommer-slutty-stemning til introspektiv selvrefleksion. Der er gået seks år siden Phoebe Bridgers udgav albummet ’Punisher’, der udkom midt i pandemien og gjorde hende til en af sin generations mest indflydelsesrige sangskrivere. Siden da er der sket meget. Hun har dannet bandet ’boygenius’ med Lucy Dacus og Julien Baker og vundet Grammyer. Hun har sunget med Taylor Swift og SZA. Hun er blevet pladeselskabschef, stilikon og genstand for en grad af sladder, man normalt forbinder med meget større popstjerner. Hun har mistet sin far. Hun har været forlovet, sandsynligvis med Paul Mescal. De er dog gået fra hinanden, og han er siden blevet kæreste med Gracie Abrams, mens Phoebe Bridgers selv har dannet par med Bo Burnham. Og nu har hun så lavet sit tredje album: ’Lost Weekend’. Et album om sorg og berømmelse. Om det at blive ældre, om ekskærester og ny kærlighed – og måske om, hvad der sker, når en sangskriver, som er blevet berømt for at fortælle os alt, pludselig opdager, at hele verden lytter med. Vi lytter til Phoebe Bridgers’ tredje, fremragende album og taler om det i dagens afsnit af Poptillægget.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Netflix can humble anybody. One wrong guess, one bad ranking, and suddenly your favorite show is sitting in the bottom half while everybody argues like their life depends on it. Diandre Robinson and the crew turn this into a full-blown battle, blind-ranking Netflix originals and getting hit with trivia that exposes who really knows their TV. From Stranger Things, Black Mirror, and Wednesday to Mindhunter, Ozark, Money Heist, and The Punisher, the conversation is chaotic, hilarious, and brutally honest. Some shows get the respect they deserve. Others get dragged straight into the dirt. You'll hear bold takes, surprise defenses, and the kind of debate only real friends can survive. They break down what actually makes a show unforgettable, why some acclaimed series still miss for certain viewers, and how nostalgia can carry a title way farther than it should. And when the rankings start getting spicy, the whole table has to fight for what stays and what gets cut. This episode is for anyone who loves ranking shows, arguing over best-ever TV, and hearing unfiltered opinions from people who are not trying to be polite. If you've ever yelled at a screen because someone ranked your favorite too low, this one is for you. Hit play and get ready to laugh, debate, and possibly rethink your own Netflix top 10.

Roddy Piper is throwing clotheslines and brawling without hesitation. This movie goes wild with gang violence, Martial arts, guns, and explosions at every turn…but can it survive a pointless forbidden love story and lame bad guys?!

They skipped a month. The Marvel universe did not. This month on Puny Pod, the MCU rewatch podcast that covers the Marvel Cinematic Universe in release order, Ryan and David are back with the August 2026 Bugle — and after a month off, there is a lot to get through. This is the Thanksgiving episode. You have been fasting. There is food on the table. The headliner is a full review of Spider-Man: Brand New Day. They go spoiler-free first — box office numbers, reception, a basic lay of the land — and then the guardrails come off. Four years after No Way Home, Peter Parker is alone, anonymous, and quietly mutating. Ryan and David dig into what that means for the character, what Sadie Sink is actually doing in this movie, why the Punisher and Spider-Man dynamic worked, what the Hulk showing up meant for the story, and why this might be the best MJ has ever been on screen. Plus: the Department of Damage Control, Ned's conspiracy board, and the most aggressive product placement in recent Marvel memory. Then it's on to San Diego Comic-Con. Ryan Coogler is returning for Black Panther 3, and the new Black Panther has been cast. Ryan Gosling is officially Ghost Rider, directed by Sean Levy, and fans are already doing the math on a potential Midnight Suns lineup. Kevin Feige confirmed there will be no Marvel movies between Doomsday and Secret Wars. Avengers: Endgame is getting a re-release on September 25th to go back after Avatar's box office record. And Ryan Reynolds spent Comic-Con cosplaying on the convention floor as Deadpool, because of course he did. Ryan closes things out with a full Avengers: Doomsday prep guide: which movies to watch, which ones you can skip if you're short on time, and what TV shows are actually worth adding to the rotation before the film hits. X-Men '97 is being saved for September. The Spokane wildfires are briefly addressed — if you can donate, inovia.org is one place to do it. Next up on Puny Pod: Mystery Men. Themes by J.R.

In this episode of the Punisher Waterfowl Podcast, the crew sits down with Jaden Bankes for a lively, unapologetic conversation about duck hunting culture, big-water rigs, Long Point history, and the obsession that drives waterfowl hunters. From the legacy of Banks Boats to the realities of layout hunting on rough water, the discussion dives into the gear, traditions, and debates that define the sport. The conversation gets candid and entertaining as the guys share opinions on overrated gear, band hunting, camo, decoys, lanyards, and what really matters in the field. Along the way, they swap stories about dangerous conditions, legendary hunts, and the kind of hunters who always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Equal parts funny, opinionated, and full of hard-earned waterfowl wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves ducks, boats, and the stories that come with chasing them.

Christopher Nolan's new film ‘The Odyssey' is a box-office hit, but classics scholar Emily Wilson, who translated Homer's poem from the original text, says the film's script is abysmally written, lacking in emotional depth and character development. She talks about her translation and divisive criticism of the film. Also, we hear from actor Jon Bernthal who plays Menelaus, King of Sparta in ‘The Odyssey' and the Punisher in the new Spider-Man movie.  See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
