(This is an episode from the podcast "On With Kara Swisher”, from from New York Magazine and the Vox Media Podcast Network.) From media moguls to tech billionaires, Oscar-nominated and Emmy award-winning writer, producer and director Jesse Armstrong knows how to tap into the psyche of the rich and powerful. In the “Succession” creator's new HBO movie, “Mountainhead,” a tech-bro poker weekend turns into a life-or-death battle over who will control the future — in both business and the real world.From their isolated lair in Utah, four millionaire/billionaire friends (played by Steve Carell, Jason Schwartzman, Cory Michael Smith, and Ramy Youssef) watch as deepfakes created on one of their platforms lead to massacres, assassinations, and government takeovers around the world. This sparks the friends' imperialistic fantasies and some unfriendly inter-group competition. Kara talks to writer-director Jesse Armstrong about the real-world inspirations for these characters, how tech founders think about their own role in society, and whether the tech oligarchy has replaced legacy media giants like Rupert Murdoch. Mountainhead is available to stream now on Max. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

In deze Bright Podcast hebben we het over twee opvallende e-bike-zaken en blikken we vooruit op WWDC, de jaarlijkse presentatie van alle nieuwe systemen en software van Apple. Verder deze aflevering: KPN en Samsung introduceren een nieuwe manier van berichten versturen, bijna niemand koopt tweedehands elektrische auto’s en er is een nieuwe Hue-lamp uitgelekt.

Bekijk meer op rabobank.jobs/IT Tips uit deze aflevering: Games: het tweede seizoen van Playdate is van start. De vreemde gele handheld spelcomputer met zwartwit-schermpje werd geleverd met een heel seizoen games. Kreeg je elke week twee nieuwe games, maar alsnog niet tegelijk omdat die Playdate niet tegelijk werd geleverd. Nu komt het concept beter uit de verf, omdat iedereen met een Playdate elke week dezelfde nieuwe games krijgt. Is afgelopen week begonnen, duurt zes weken, elke week 2 nieuwe games, 39 dollar. Trailer: The Witcher 4-trailer, gemaakt in Unreal Engine 5. Geeft een voorproefje van waar de game straks naartoe gaat, en dat kennelijk gedraaid op de normale PS5. Film: Mountainhead op HBO Max, een film over vier techmiljardairs, van de schrijver van Succession Jesse Armstrong. Hoofdrollen voor onder meer Steve Carrell (The Office US, 40 Year Old Virgin, The Big Short) als een soort Pieter Thiel (de libertarische technocraat die een dikke vinger in de pap heeft in Silicon Valley), Cory Michael Smith als een soort Elon Musk, Ramy Youssef als een soort Sam Altman en en Jason Schwartzman (uit de stal van Wes Anderson) die nog geen miljardiar is maar heel graga wil worden met een kut-app. Ze komen bij elkaar bij de armste van het viertal terwijl de wereld in brand staat vanwege een nieuwe, brakke AI die de rijkste van het stel net heeft geintroduceerd. Gegeven is actueel en creepy, de uitvoering als halve comedy minder.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Succession creator Jesse Armstrong is back with Mountainhead, a new movie with characters who are just as wealthy, powerful, and insecure as the Roy family. Steve Carell, Jason Schwartzman, Ramy Youssef and Cory Michael Smith star as four tech moguls gathering for a low-key guys' weekend of poker. But business and unchecked, overinflated egos quickly lead them all down a very dark path.

I fredags stoppade polisen en mordplan mot honom och arrangörerna av Brännbollsyran valde att ställa in hans konsert som skulle bli den första på 9 år i Sverige. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Han är en av de mest omskrivna, kontroversiella och omdebatterade artisterna i Sverige idag som kritiseras för att glorifiera en kriminell livsstil. Men han har också försvarare som menar att han och hans låtar används som ett slagträ i en större debatt som inte har med musiken att göra.Men vad är det Yasin berättar om i sina låtar egentligen?Vi får besök av musikjournalisterna Petter Hallén och Hasan Ramic som kommer att fördjupa detta artistskap.MUSIKTIPSDet blir mer samtal om musik, om en av årets polarpristagare, den kanadensiska sopranen och dirigenten Barbara Hannigan.Musikrevyn i P2s Karin Birgersson har lyssnat på hennes senaste kritikerrosade skiva Electric Fields och kommer berätta om det galna konceptet bakom musiken och varför det är så bra.REPORTAGEKorsordskonstruktören HC Nygårdh har fyllt 75 år men har inga planer på att sluta göra sina kluriga korsord. Istället växlar han upp och debuterar nu som deckarförfattare.Vi möter honom där handlingen utspelar sin i ett gammalt gruvområde i de sörmländska skogarna och självklart finns det ett pussel att lösa för läsaren även här.KRITIKSAMTALI helgen var det premiär för filmen Mountainhead, en satirisk dramakomedi av Sucession skaparen Jesse Armstrong. Där fyra tech-miljardärer, spelade av Steve Carell, Jason Schwartzman, Cory Michael Smith och Ramy Youssef, samlas i en lyxig bergsvilla för en grabbhelg, samtidigt som världen är på väg att kollapsa.Filmkritikern Björn Jansson har sett den och kommer berätta om det går att skratta åt det som utspelas i filmen utan att börja fundera allt för mycket om hur det ser ut i verkligheten.SERIEOBS har sommaruppehåll och istället sänder vi serien Da Vinci - Avkodad en serie av Cecilia Blomberg och Fredrik Wadström.En serie om världsberömda konstverk som fortfarande tolkas och omges av mysterier.Nationalmuseums Martin Olin, en Sveriges främsta Leonardo-kännare, berättar om målningarna som lyft fram Leonardo Da Vinci som ett av konsthistoriens största och mest omsusade genier.Programledare: Lisa WallProducent: Saman Bakhtiari

This week two dramas about sisters and the much anticipated movie from Succession creator Jesse Armstrong. • Sirens (Netflix, 5 episodes) Watch for the exploration of the relationship between working-class Buffalonian Devon DeWitt (Meghann Fahy) and her younger and somewhat more successful sister Simone (Milly Alcock). Stay for the husband and wife dynamics between socialite Michaela Kell (Julianne Moore) at the lavish beachside estate she shares with her billionaire husband, Peter (Kevin Bacon). • The Better Sister (Prime Video, 8 episodes) A thriller that centres around Chloe (Jessica Biel), a high-profile media executive (think Anna Wintour), who lives a picturesque life with her handsome lawyer husband Adam (Corey Stoll) and teenage son Ethan (Maxwell Acee Donovan) by her side while her estranged sister Nicky (Elizabeth Banks) struggles to make ends meet and stay clean. • Mountainhead (Max, movie) A story about four very nasty tech tycoons, good friends on the surface but cutthroat underneath, who gather for a poker weekend at the luxurious home of the poorest of them, the one who is only worth half a billion dollars! Jason Schwartzman is Hugo, the host and creator of a meditation app, angling to get one of his friends to invest a billion or so in his business. Steve Carell is Randy, the oldest of the group, whose contacts in Washington, DC can influence the military and the country's power grid. Diagnosed with incurable cancer, he can't believe money can't fix that, but hopes to cheat death by getting his friends to create an artificial intelligence able to upload a human brain. Ramy Youssef is Jeff, whose company has a super-efficient AI, and who appears to be the most humane of the four (which isn't saying much). Cory Michael Smith is Ben, the owner of a social media app called Traan, and the world’s richest man. Also this week – James visits Clarkson’s pub which features in the new season of Clarkson’s Farm (prime Video) and Andrew has watched new And Just Like That (Binge).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Four tech CEOs, drunk on power, reunite at a mountaintop home amid a global economic crisis they might be partially responsible for. "There is a power that is purchased by money, where they don't have to apologize for their behavior," Cory Michael Smith says about playing Venis in Jesse Armstrong's HBO film Mountainhead (May 31). "A lot of these guys probably grew up not being the coolest kids in class." Part of the struggle for Smith was finding the space between drama and comedy. "Figuring out the balance was a little nerve-racking." Plus, Smith was excited to work with Armstrong. "I watched Succession, like most actors, with awe and envy, thinking, 'Wow, that's the luckiest cast.' Being invited into his [Armstrong's] feature directorial debut is so dreamy." Smith was also eager to work alongside Steve Carell, Jason Schwartzman and Ramy Youssef. "I'm really grateful that I feel like I didn't f*** it up...this felt like a monstrous opportunity, and a monstrous opportunity to fail and have to really consider going back to school if I just humiliated myself."

He talks to Rachel about his gripe with Santa Claus and reckoning with his mortality.To listen sponsor-free and support the show, sign up for Wild Card+ at plus.npr.org/wildcardLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Warner Bros. Discovery has renamed its streaming service once again. Beginning in the summer of 2025, “Max” will be “HBO Max” again.

durée : 00:03:39 - Le Regard culturel - par : Lucile Commeaux - Arte propose en libre accès les trois saisons de cette série imaginée par l'humoriste américain Ramy Youssef, une plongée singulière, drôle et amère, dans la communauté arabo-américaine.
The Simpsons, South Park, Family Guy, American Dad, and more all-American animated adult tv comedies have graced our screens for decades, mercilessly interrogating the all-American life and if it's all it's cracked up to be. But rarely do we get one of these series from an Arab and Muslim perspective, until now with Ramy Youssef and Pam Brady's #1 Happy Family USA, featuring the Egyptian-American Hussein family, including young insecure Rumi (Ramy Youssef), his wildly insecure father Hussein (also Ramy Youssef), his caring and overburdened mother Sharia (Salma Hindy), overachieving and closeted older sister Mona (Alia Shawkat), conservative Grandpa (Azhar Usman), and niqabi and free-spirited Grandma (Randa Jarrar). Set in the early 2000s in New Jersey, right around an astronomically horrible national event, we watch the Hussein family deal with the outlandish racism, surveillance, and Islamophobia every single day, and their own outlandish efforts to deal with it. All characters and the animation style were designed by Iraqi-British data journalist Mona Chalabi. Joined by our friend Nadia Osman, we discuss the series and why it's a landmark for SWANA and Muslim representation, the great casting news about Lee Cronin's The Mummy, give our recommendations, and much more.

In a special Emmy-themed roundtable, Franklin and Kate welcome three powerhouse creators—Billy Porter (Pose), Robin Thede (A Black Lady Sketch Show), and Ramy Youssef (Ramy)—for an unfiltered, deeply personal conversation recorded just ahead of the 72nd Annual Emmy Awards. This episode breaks the usual format to let the magic of the moment unfold. The trio dives into what it means to bring their full selves to the screen, the evolving responsibility of the artist, and the lessons they'd share with their younger selves. (As Billy memorably puts it: “A b*tch has to have boundaries!”)It's raw, real, and refreshingly honest—touching on identity, representation, and the complexity behind creating truly authentic work. As Kate says, “We just got out of the way and let it flow.” And flow it does.Questions? Comments? Criticism? Hit us up on social media at @theblcklst.This conversation took place in 2020.

We'll be back with new episodes in September. In the meantime, here's one from our archive–actor and comedian Ramy Youssef. Ramy is the starof the eponymous hit show, Ramy, which has won Golden Globes and Peabodies, as well as Emmy nominations. He's also the co-creator of Mo with Mo Amer, and can be seen later this year in Poor Things with Emma Stone, William Dafoe and Mark Ruffalo among other big wigs of the industry. As writer, actor, director and producer of the show, Ramy brings nuance and subtlety to what are, on the surface, extremely difficult issues to broach on US TV and he does so with the one tool that always breaks down prejudices—humour. He talks about growing up in New Jersey, the show, and how his life has changed before and after the show's global success. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Ramy Youssef Returns: You Already Love Him(Recorded October 2023) Ramy Youssef was one of the first and most popular guests on Working It Out back in 2020, and now he's back with updates to some of the same very material he worked out the first time around.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Yanis Varoufakis, economics professor and former Finance Minister of Greece, to discuss his recent book Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on continuing US arms sales to Israel, infrastructure regulation, Florida's Medicaid dump, New Jersey's ballot design, and new reports on racial biases in medicine, also watching Christiane Amanpour talk with Zahiro-Shahar Mor about Israel's failing genocide. Professor Yanis Varoufakis then joins, first walking through the evolution from Feudalism's formula of land ownership and rent extraction to Capitalism's formula of the ownership of the means of production and profit extraction, before diving into his concept of “Technofeudalism,” a rising system of digital fiefdoms – Amazon a primary example – where products not produced by the owner of the platforms are sold with a massive rent extraction. Expanding on this, Professor Varoufakis explores the role of these platforms' ownership of the means of behavioral modification (via the extraction of data, once again, not produced by them) as an example of what he calls “cloud capital,” which takes up massive proportions of the global GDP and siphons it off from the labor market, before stepping back to analyze the role of the 2008 financial crisis and the commitment to the neoliberal dynamic of austerity for the people, socialism for the banks, in allowing the private world to funnel massive amounts of investment into cloud capital and allow existing companies (Meta, Google, Amazon, etc) to establish these digital fiefdoms. Wrapping up, Professor Yanis Varoufakis tackles the role that various fiscal and anti-trust policies, the idea of a bill of digital rights, and workplace democratization could play in helping to reclaim and reshape these technofeudalist fiefdoms. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Ramy Youssef say ‘Free Palestine' to rapturous applause on SNL, Rep. Tim Walberg gets caught on camera calling for the genocide of Gaza, and Donald Trump Jr. talks hunting. They also watch Olayemi Olurin school Eric Adams on the Breakfast Club as they tackle the insane fear-mongering around crime in NYC, like “selling fruit” and “smoking weed,” plus, your IMs!

Remy had the extreme pleasure talking to the hilarious and wonderful Salma Hindy -- a first-generation Egyptian-Canadian comedian, writer, actor and performer who has opened for Ken Jeong, Ramy Youssef, Beth Stelling, and Chelsea Handler. Salma tells us all about growing up in a very strict religious household and the ways in which it effected her sexuality and self-view. She tells us all about ending her relationship with people pleasing and how she pivoted to self-pleasing, with the help of therapy, comedy, and a few sex toys. She regales us with many stories of her first time experiencing all things sexual in her late 20s-early 30s and this episode is all of the things Salma is: funny, interesting, endearing, and just gets better and better as time goes on.
