In this episode of Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes revisit "Ransom" (1996), a high-stakes thriller from director Ron Howard starring Mel Gibson as a desperate father who flips the script on his son's kidnappers.Mike Field and Mike Butler agree the film delivers when it comes to tension, pacing, and strong performances (shoutout to Gary Sinise!), but they clash over whether Gibson's bold choices as a father were brave... or just plain reckless. They also dig into some of the kidnappers' questionable motivations and plot logic.It's a taut '90s thriller with moral gray areas—and the Mikes are here for all of it.So, grab your popcorn and soda, please notice the exits to the left and right of you and settle down for Forgotten Cinema. What's your favorite 90's thriller? Let us know in the comments below!

Episode 141 is on the scene and we welcome zMAX CARS Tour star Mini Tyrrell back to the program. In his own words, Mini just won the biggest race of his career Saturday at Dominion Raceway in the event bearing the name of his charity. We discuss how successful Mini's Mission has been and how sweet it was to cap the weekend off with a dominant win in front of his home crowd and the families brought in to keep their minds off of what they are going through.We give a full review of the race which saw Connor Hall gain valuable points on Landen Lewis in the battle for the championship after his runner up finish while other contenders had issues. We debate whether or not the main event for the night should go on first or go on last just like concerts, boxing, wrestling and UFC fights do.Taylor Ransom is a second generation racer who has tasted success at both Franklin County Raceway and at Motor Mile Speedway. When he isn't working on Kyle Dudley's car, he is racing his own Super Street machine. He joins us as we talk about his second win of the season on Saturday, his love for hunting and his start in the sport. We discuss NASCAR's trip to Mexico, Carson Hocevar vs Ricky Stenhouse Jr, NASCAR Whelen Modified action from Riverhead, ARCA from Berlin, the ASA Stars Tour doubleheader from Wisconsin plus dubs, short track spotlight and why you should always pack an extra shirt on the road in case you get soaked in a rainstorm. All of this and more on DLN!!

"Miss, you'd better look at that note. I have a bomb."In November 1971, a man in a suit boarded a flight from Portland to Seattle, calmly handed a note to a flight attendant, and claimed he had a bomb. He demanded $200,000 in cash, four parachutes, and a fuel truck on standby. Hours later, somewhere over the dense forests of the Pacific Northwest, he opened the rear stairway of the plane and vanished into the night.Was it a fatal leap, the perfect getaway, or the birth of a new identity? Fifty years later, no one knows who Dan Cooper really was, what became of him, or if he ever touched the ground alive. But the theories haven't stopped... and neither has the obsession.Research, writing, hosting, and production by Micheal WhelanAdditional research & writing by Amelia White and Ira RaiLearn more about this podcast at http://unresolved.meIf you would like to support this podcast, consider heading to https://www.patreon.com/unresolvedpod to become a Patron or ProducerBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/unresolved--3266604/support.

The Food Professor Podcast closes out its fifth season (sort of) with a sizzling, two-guest double feature and a feast of food industry insights.Co-hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois kick things off with a robust news round-up, starting with the Competition Bureau's lawsuit against DoorDash. The case alleges deceptive pricing practices that could set a major precedent in Canada's rapidly evolving food delivery sector. Next up is a conversation about GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, and their surprising ripple effects across the food and restaurant industries. With major players like McDonald's flagging GLP-1's impact on consumer demand, the hosts unpack how appetite suppression could force chains to rethink menus and marketing.Turning to politics, the duo dives into the return of Bill C-202, which aims to legislate permanent protection for supply-managed sectors like dairy. Sylvain, fresh from testifying before Senate, challenges the notion that legislation ensures economic security, arguing that this approach stifles innovation and shrinks global opportunities for Canada's dairy sector. The conversation highlights deeper questions about food affordability, trade readiness, and long-term resilience in Canadian agriculture.The episode then shifts to the guest segment, welcoming Daniel Vaughn, Texas Monthly's Barbecue Editor and the man behind the publication's iconic “Top 50 Barbecue Joints in Texas” list. Daniel shares his personal journey from Ohio to Texas BBQ fanatic, reveals the meticulous tasting process behind the prestigious list, and highlights innovations shaping the future of craft barbecue—from smoked lamb to Vietnamese fusion. He also reflects on the human side of the industry, including stories of pitmasters overcoming illness, personal loss, and economic challenges, all while pursuing culinary greatness.Wrapping the episode, Ransom Hawley, CEO of Caddle and presenting sponsor of the podcast, joins to share exclusive insights from a new back-to-school consumer study. He reveals that two-thirds of Canadian parents begin planning in late spring, and that private-label grocery products are increasingly popular—especially among families with younger children. He discusses emotional purchase behavior, the importance of online research, and how grocers and retailers can tailor promotions for maximum impact.With bold opinions, brisket, and back-to-school tips, this finale serves up equal parts smoke and strategy.

On October 9th, 1984, a mystery began in Mercedes, Texas, adding to the many others in the Rio Grande Valley. Twenty-one-year-old Kim Sue Leggett was kidnapped from her place of employment, Ross Cotton Gin. A phone call that took place literally minutes after she was taken and a ransom letter sent to Kim's parents a few days later were virtually the only clues Mercedes Police, Hidalgo County Sheriff's Office investigators, the Texas Rangers, and the FBI had to work with. Kim was never seen alive again; her remains never found. Her kidnapping was cold from the beginning and remains so today.If you have any information about the disappearance of Kim Sue Leggett, please contact the Mercedes Police Department at 956-565-3102 or Texas Crime stoppers at 800-252-8477.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.
