‘Their love was so innocent, so sweet, so organic and we just wanted them to end up together because even they knew that some of the queer films always end in tragedy and they were worried that something like that's going to happen but that didn't happen and so people were really happy with it.' Nikki Bedi speaks to Rohan Kanawade, the acclaimed director whose debut feature Cactus Pears or Sabar Bonda, made history as the first Marathi-language film to premiere at the prestigious Sundance Film Festival. It also became the first Indian drama to win the festival's International Grand Jury Prize. Set in Kanawade's home state of Maharashtra, Cactus Pears is a groundbreaking Marathi-language love story between two men. Drawing on his experience of mourning his father, he reveals how grief, memory and identity found their way into his film. He also talks about growing up in a poor area of Mumbai with parents who accepted and supported his sexuality.Thank you to the Arts Hour team for their help in making this programme.

We talked about Ringo Starr going on tour again and he's 84. We also talked about the NFL Top 100 list, which Gio likes because the players vote on it. Lamar Jackson dropped 67 spots this year, which means his opponents are no longer afraid of him.
With Boomer out, Gio and Jerry cover a Mets win, looming lockout fears, dropping Netflix ratings, and bizarre celebrity lookalikes. Next, amid shark sightings and smoky air, they dive into Ringo Starr's tour, Lamar Jackson's ranking drop, and Oz the Mentalist's tricks. The Canadian wildfire smoke continues to ruin beach plans as the guys discuss Claude Lemieux's death, Eli Manning's new show, and Gio's free Delta flight. Finally, the hazy weather sparks a debate on making decisions, followed by C-Lo's updates on Giannis joining the Heat, Joe Flacco's trophies, loud studio construction noise, and a grim WFAN PSA to wrap up the week.
Skip the ocean due to a shark and breathe in the smoky air that is ruining the good weather. At 84, Ringo Starr is touring again, while the player-voted NFL Top 100 drops Lamar Jackson 67 spots as opponents lose their fear. Boomer & Gio hit Netflix's Quarterback, though Gio says it and Hard Knocks aren't must-watch TV anymore. C-Lo's update brings Lindor's terrible throw, Baty's homer, Christian Scott on the air quality, Baker Mayfield going at Jalen Carter, and The Roommates podcast at Fanatics-Fest. Finally, Gio recalls spotting Oz The Mentalist's tricks during his visit but refusing to expose him the way Pablo Torre did.

Emily's story starts very simply, living above an antiques shop, her Dad would drive a Ford P100 pickup and between him and his wife (Emily's Mum) they would source, sell and deliver architectural antiques, with previous customers including Ringo Starr and the now King of England, Charles III. As business grew, so the cars came along - her Mum choosing to buy a brand new BMW 7 series, and her Dad favouring Dodge Ram pick up trucks! Alongside the truck, her Dad would also buy and restore classic cars which now form a 15 strong collection including Bentleys and Rolls Royces from the 20s and 30s, through to Jaguar E Type, Austin Healey and even a Ford Escort!We really hope you enjoy this chat and reflection on both car nostalgia, but also on what it takes to create content in 2026.

The Beatles (The White Album) (Apple Music) U.S Release November 25, 1968The Beatles' 1968 self-titled double album—universally known as The White Album—is one of the most ambitious and influential recordings in rock history. Emerging after the colorful unity of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the album instead embraces contradiction, diversity, and individuality. Across thirty songs, The Beatles explore folk, hard rock, blues, country, music hall, psychedelia, avant-garde experimentation, and intimate acoustic balladry. The sessions reflected the band's growing personal and creative divisions, yet those tensions fueled remarkable artistic achievements. Paul McCartney's melodic brilliance, John Lennon's emotional honesty, George Harrison's emergence as a world-class songwriter, and Ringo Starr's distinctive personality all shine throughout. Classics such as "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," "Blackbird," "Dear Prudence," "Helter Skelter," and "Happiness Is a Warm Gun" remain cornerstones of popular music. Uneven by design yet endlessly fascinating, The White Album captures four extraordinary musicians simultaneously growing apart while creating one of the richest, boldest, and most enduring albums ever recorded.

Hello and welcome to Aquarium Drunkard Transmissions with Jason P. Woodbury, presented by the Talkhouse Podcast Network. We're kicking off our new season with a fantastic guest: Don Was. Was' CV is stunning. In addition to his genre-bending work with Was (Not Was), Don has collaborated with some of the most respected artists in music history: Bob Dylan, Bonnie Raitt, The Rolling Stones, The B-52s, Ringo Starr, Roy Orbison…the list could go on. These days, you can find Don with his band, The Pan-Detroit Ensemble, whose latest album is called Groove in the Face of Adversity, and behind the desk at Blue Note Records—he's been the president of the legendary jazz label since 2011. But Don has joined us today to talk about one of his very first recording projects: Ted Lucas' Impossible Love, an unheard album he cut with the cult Detroit songwriter in 1979. Impossible Love is part of Third Man Records' new collection of Lucas gold, Images of Life. Following their reissue of his stoned folk classic 1975 LP, Third Man Records has unlocked the vault, offering a comprehensive look at one of the late '60s and '70s' most dynamic Detroit talents. Spanning Lucas' career, the set includes recordings by Lucas' early regional sensations like The Spike Drivers, The Misty Wizards, and The Horny Toads, acoustic demos, and his long-lost second album, produced by Was. Don joined us to discuss his time with Ted–including a disastrous gig they played with Black Sabbath—and help us uncover this lost Motor City counter culture story. And that's not all—Don also reflected on his work with the late bandmate Bob Weir, the legacy of the Dead, and of course, his work on Garth Brooks' ill-fated 1999 Chris Gaines project. That's right: we went there. So roll up your sleeves and let's get to it, Don Was on Transmissions.

“I do live here and now, but I often think about the past. But then again, I think a lot of people do. So I think writers, what are they going to draw on?”Mark Savage speaks to musician Paul McCartney.Born in Liverpool, England, during the Second World War, he found fame as a member of the legendary British band The Beatles in the 1960s, widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in music history.McCartney shared primary singing and songwriting duties with bandmate John Lennon, and along with George Harrison and Ringo Starr, the four-piece became a global pop music sensation with hits such as Twist and Shout, Yesterday and Hey Jude.They remain one of the best-selling musical acts of all time alongside the likes of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson.McCartney was knighted for his services to music in 1997, but despite his huge achievements, the 83-year-old seems to be showing no interest in retirement — he's releasing his 19th solo album.The Boys of Dungeon Lane is inspired by his experiences growing up in post-war Liverpool, during which a young McCartney, carrying a guitar and wearing a bowler hat to catch attention, would hitchhike with John Lennon to places as far away as Paris. The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world. The best interviews from the BBC, including episodes with Chaka Khan, Pete Townshend and, Paul McCartney's bandmate, Ringo Starr. You can listen on the BBC World Service on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 0800 GMT.

The Sandown Clown | Paranormal Podcast This episode we dove into one of the strangest and most uniquely bizarre encounters in UK paranormal history, the Sandown Clown, where in May of 1973, two children on the Isle of Wight followed an unsettling wailing sound across a golf course and a marsh, only to find a seven-foot-tall, no-neck, bone-white, three-fingered entity in a yellow pointed hat living under a bridge who dropped a book in a creek, gave them a wave, and then invited them inside his metal shed for what ended up being a very long and surprisingly cordial conversation. We went through every possible theory for what Sam could have been — a very method-acting, very high Ringo Starr filming a movie nearby, an alien scout afraid of humans who found children to be the least threatening study subjects, and Charlie's personal favorite, a Fae entity operating by his own bizarre logic in a liminal space between dimensions, which explains the bridge, the enchantment, the mechanical speech, and why the child just was not scared at all. Episode Keywords: Sandown Clown, Isle of Wight paranormal, UK UFO encounters, high strangeness cryptid, fae entity encounter, alien scout theory, paranormal children encounter, believing the bizarre podcast, Sandown clown 1973, uncanny valley entity, liminal space paranormal, fae folklore Britain, British UFO Research Association, paranormal clown sighting, alien mimicry theory

Paul McCartney's incredible career began more than 60 years ago when he formed The Beatles with John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr. Now, he's out with his latest solo album "The Boys of Dungeon Lane". In this week's Sitdown, Willie Geist gets together with McCartney to talk about his new music, that includes a song with The Beatles members. And McCartney talks about performing in Stephen Colbert's final "The Late Show" which happened to be on the same stage the Beatles had their American debut in 1964.

Often overshadowed by his former bandmates, Ringo Starr has his own remarkable story that is no less compelling. Ringo: A Fab Life highlights a life so jaw-droppingly eventful that one is left wondering how he also had time to become one of the best musicians on the planet.Employing an episodic, mosaic format, critically acclaimed author Tom Doyle takes readers through the ride of a lifetime, from Starr's brushes with death as a child brought up in poverty, through to dizzying heights of fame and success with the Beatles and beyond. By examining pivotal moments, anecdotes, and cautionary tales, we see Starr soar as part of the biggest band in the world - and then try to cope with life outside of it with a film career, misadventures with friends, children's TV narration, furniture designing, and marriage to a Bond girl, before eventually finding peace and sobriety as one of the elder statesmen of rock.So much more than another Beatles biography, Ringo follows Starr's career far beyond the rose-tinted '60s, through the various addictions and career left turns in the '70s and '80s, before reaching the '90s, his legacy and reputation intact.The life of Richard Starkey is long overdue for a proper inspection, and this book - with exclusive new interviews conducted by Doyle with Starr himself, among others - provides a never-before-seen level of detail that will delight hardcore fans and curious readers alike.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

“This is a calling. It's bigger than anything in your life as an individual. If you found the thing that you were put on this planet to do, and a lot of people are put on this planet and they don't know, it's such a gift to find it.”Nick Grimshaw and Annie Macmanus speak to global music icon Chaka Khan about her life and career.Born Yvette Marie Stevens in the US city of Chicago in 1953, her big break came at the age of 20 when her band Rufus signed its first record deal. With her powerful vocals and striking stage presence, she quickly caught the public's attention.The band enjoyed commercial and critical success in the years that followed, before Chaka decided to go it alone around a decade later… a decision which transformed her life and career.Worldwide hits such as I'm Every Woman and I Feel For You followed, as well as collaborations with legends like Whitney Houston and Prince, multiple Grammy Awards, and an induction into the Rock ‘n' Roll Hall of Fame.As a new musical telling her story begins its run, the 73-year-old has a lot to reflect on.Thank you to the Sidetracked team for their help in making this programme.

“Our best reply to the regime is that they didn't make us bad people. That we remain focused on our dream of seeing a free Venezuela. I have seen other people become very bitter and angry and resentful. And I think they lose. Because when you become angry you become, in a way, a prisoner of a sentiment that doesn't allow you to go forward.” James Menendez speaks to Leopoldo Lopez, once the most prominent face of Venezuela's opposition, he is now living in exile in Spain. He spent more than a decade attempting to unseat Nicolás Maduro's authoritarian government and was imprisoned for over three years, accused of inciting the 2014 anti-government protests. Following the capture and arrest of Maduro by US forces in January, the country has entered a new and uncertain phase, with Vice-President Delcy Rodríguez now acting as interim leader. Leopoldo Lopez talks to us about the prospect of elections in Venezuela and the personal cost of standing up for political change.

A secondary school in northeastern B.C. tied to one of Canada's deadliest mass shootings will be torn down, while health officials say several Canadians are isolating after exposure to a hantavirus outbreak linked to a cruise, though the overall risk remains low. Oil prices are rising after Donald Trump rejected Iran's latest proposal to end the war, and new data shows fewer Canadians are travelling to the U.S., with visits down significantly. In entertainment, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr have released their first-ever duet, Dua Lipa is suing Samsung over alleged unauthorized use of her image, and “The Devil Wears Prada 2” is topping the box office again. Meanwhile, Canadian households are filing for bankruptcy at the fastest pace in over 16 years, highlighting growing financial pressure.

Bob Spitz has written major biographies of the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Bob Dylan, and now the Rolling Stones — but also, somehow, Ronald Reagan and Julia Child. In rock, his credentials were hard won: he started out hustling gigs for an unknown Bruce Springsteen for six years, moved on to handling Elton John's American business, and spent long enough in the world to find himself jamming with Paul McCartney and chatting with Bob Dylan on a stoop in the Village. The Reagan and Julia Child books are harder to explain, and perhaps that's the point—Spitz seems to do his best work when he has no business writing the book at all. Tyler and Bob discuss how the Stones became so great so quickly, what they added to the blues, how their melodies stack up against the Beatles', whether Exile on Main Street deserves its canonical status, which songs are most underrated, what Charlie Watts actually got out of playing in a rock band, the rise and fall of Brian Jones, how the Stones outlasted nearly everyone, the influence of Mick's London School of Economics training, why popular music has lost its cultural influence, what we should still be asking Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr, whether the Beatles' breakup was good for the world, how senile Reagan really was in his second term and whether he was ever truly a communist, how good a cook Julia Child actually was, his next book on Lennon's second act, and much more.

In this hotly anticipated Part 2, T.J. and Casey and their Sunshine Band pick up the pieces for Florida Man, Tony Mendoza, still buggin' out in the Everglades. They wrap up their deep deep dish on Ringo's “Long Long Road”, and T.J. “press night invite” Shanoff does his finest Chris Jones impression (Angry Drunk Chicago Guy: “I WAS ALWAYS MORUVA HEDY WEISS GUY MYSELF”) and opines on Brendan Hunt's new one-man show “The Movement You Need” at Steppenwolf's Magic Carpet Theater. And between the bits, they babble on wondering:
‘The power of AI is that it's able to capture everything, it's able to try to interpret everyone objectively. Human beings are imperfect in terms of their capability to listen and understand. Everyone unconsciously, when they listen, they don't hear everything.'

He received a PhD from Stanford University before joining Google, where he led the search engines location services. He co-founded California based Otter.ai in 2016.

Since 2003, Ringo Starr has been producing an incredibly prolific run of releases: albums and EPs, plus live recordings. With him on this journey of multiple producers and supporting musicians has been engineer Bruce Sugar, the one constant. Bruce comes with stories and observations about working with the world's most beloved drummer, including alongside Sir Paul McCartney in the studio (including an upcoming duet), as well as on the “last Beatles song, “Now and Then.” It's a delightful dose of positivity (as well as peace and love) to hear what Bruce has to say, including work on the upcoming Long, Long Road. This episode is brought to you by DistroKid and Magical Mystery Camp.
“If you play piano, bass guitar, saxophone, I don't care - I'll play with you all night. That's how I did it. And I tell all my grandkids - get an event, get a few of your schoolmates together. They're practising and playing by themselves. Get with people!”Regan Morris speaks to musician Ringo Starr about his career. Born in Liverpool, England, during the Second World War in 1940, Ringo, real-name Richard Starkey, found fame as the drummer of the legendary British band The Beatles - widely regarded as one of the most influential acts in music history.After joining John Lennon, Paul McCartney and George Harrison in 1962, the four-piece became a global pop music sensation through hits such as ‘She Loves You', ‘Yesterday', ‘Penny Lane', and ‘Hey Jude'. They also released multiple studio albums and starred in five major motion pictures.Although the band split up in 1970, their legacy continues to live on. They remain one of the best-selling musical acts of all time over half a century later. And such was his and the band's cultural impact, that Ringo, one of two surviving members of The Beatles, received a knighthood at Buckingham Palace for his services to music in 2018.But despite achieving seemingly all that can be achieved in a music career, the 85-year-old seems to be showing no interest in retirement — he's just released his third country album, which is his 22nd album as a solo artist.
