Podcast appearances and mentions of Riz Ahmed

The inner critic doesn't just disappear with more success. Academy Award-winning actor, writer, and artist Riz Ahmed shares why success, recognition, and achievement can never replace self-worth. He opens up about identity, shame, the inner critic, and the pressure to perform, revealing how life can start to feel like one long audition when your value depends on other people’s approval. Through a deeply personal health crisis and years of chasing validation, Riz discovered the power of vulnerability, gratitude, and self-acceptance. This conversation is a powerful reminder that true freedom begins when you stop proving yourself to the world and start defining your worth for yourself. In this episode you'll learn: How to Stop Seeking Constant Validation How to Quiet Your Inner Critic How to Find Flow Instead of Chasing Success How to Let Go of Who Others Expect You to Be How to Stay Grounded Through Life’s Highs and Lows How to Build Self-Worth Beyond Achievement How to Find Freedom in Vulnerability How to Live More Fully in the Present Moment Growth isn’t about becoming someone else; it’s about having the courage to be fully yourself. Keep showing up, keep learning, and trust that who you are is already enough.

Sometimes, actor Riz Ahmed says, his life feels like a spy thriller. He made his new show, “Bait,” about that feeling, and sat down with Jessica Mendoza at our Journal Live show in Los Angeles to talk about it. The actor, known for blockbusters like “Star Wars: Rogue One” and his Oscar-nominated performance in “Sound of Metal,” also spoke about his career, what it takes to succeed in Hollywood and getting the rights to a famous spy for his show.

Riz Ahmed is an Oscar and Emmy-award winning actor and rapper, known for pushing for more nuanced portrayals of South Asians, and especially Muslims, on screen. In his most recent projects, he's shaking the foundations of British cultural mythology by taking on two roles that have long been definitive for white actors: James Bond and Hamlet. He joins Tom to talk about his new series Bait, where he plays an actor chasing the role of 007, and why he wanted to strip down Shakespeare's most famous tragedy into something more contemporary for his film Hamlet.

The Oscar and Emmy award-winning actor is currently on the press tour for not one but two new projects: his TV series 'Bait', and a film adaptation of William Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'. But the tour wouldn't be complete without joining his former school mate and fellow school play actor Mehdi for a special LIVE taping of 'We're Not Kidding' in New York City. The two dig into Riz's new roles, the state of Muslim representation in popular culture, and making political art. They also take questions from the audience, but first they share a few choice anecdotes from their teenage years. The two also discuss: Neil Patrick Harris' recent ridiculous comments about making "apolitical" art.  Why "getting in the room" doesn't matter if you let the room change you. The lasting significance of his films 'Four Lions' and 'The Long Goodbye' given the UK far-right political scene.  And how Riz got banned… from UK grocery store Tesco's! They also take questions from the audience about why some Muslim entertainers have stayed silent on Gaza, the best ways to resist fascism, the power of political storytelling, and whether Riz's aunties call him up to chastise him about some of his.. erm… spicier on-camera scenes.

Darren and I kick off our coverage of the Euphoria season three premiere, reacting to the six-episode, five-years-later reset, the new tone, and the shift in music after Labyrinth's reported split from the show, with Hans Zimmer taking over. Before the recap, we run through recent watches and recommendations, including the Oscar-nominated foreign film set around desert rave nomads and looming apocalypse, Riz Ahmed's Bond-audition satire series, the “Jury Duty”-style Company Retreat, Nirvana the Band the Show the Movie, Hulu's gag-heavy stoner sci-fi “pizza movie,” and the A24 hit The Drama starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson. We then discuss the premiere's border-drug-smuggling opener, Ru's strip-club ordeal and new criminal orbit, the show's heightened style and recurring exploitation themes, and how Hollywood, OnlyFans, and “hustle culture” storylines may converge, plus upcoming viewing plans like Beef season two and Margot Has Money Troubles. mailto:needssomeintroduction@gmail.com 00:00 Welcome and Premise 00:42 First Reactions to Premiere 01:45 Podcast Updates and Watchlist 02:56 'Sirat' Desert DJ Film Talk 07:35 Riz Ahmed Series 'Bait' 09:51 'Company Retreat' Recommendation 12:21 Nirvanna the Band the Show the Movie Hype 16:27 'Pizza Movie' Stoner Comedy  18:55 Zendaya Pattinson 'The Drama' 23:59 Euphoria Star Power 27:10 Sam Levinson and Euphoria Debate 32:38 Music and Labyrinth Fallout 34:54 Music Fallout After Split 37:35 Season Two Visual Style 39:14 Season Three Reset Works 41:43 Capitalism Hustle Themes 44:46 'Margot Has Money Trouble' 49:44 Border Smuggling Breakdown 51:42 Strip Club Apple Test 58:13 Exploitation Versus Critique 01:00:10 Hollywood Side Plot Setup 01:03:43 Breakout Actors And Wrap

This week on BEHIND THE LENS it's all about "To See or Not To See", and after hearing today's exclusive interviews with BEN WHEATLEY discussing NORMAL and ANEIL KARIA talking all things HAMLET, I think you'll agree that the answer will easily be – Must See. Both of these films are fresh and fantastic, from story to performances to production values. First up today is director ANEIL KARIA talking about HAMLET starring Riz Ahmed. It takes guts to handle Shakespeare and adapt and reimagine, but director Aneil Karia did an amazing job with HAMLET. One of the most interesting aspects of the film comes courtesy of Michael Lesslie's screenplay. Michael did a wonderful job adapting "Macbeth" for director Justin Kurzel, and once again delivers a Shakespearean adaptation that is relatable and attainable for today's audience with HAMLET. Switching gears and genres, we head to the small town of NORMAL with director BEN WHEATLEY. I love Ben Wheatley's work, be it High Rise, Free Fire, Rebecca, Meg 2, or now, NORMAL. Ben can tackle any genre and always delivers first-rate films with high production values, excellent performances, and, in many cases, go-for-broke action and intensity. I have to put NORMAL in the latter category. Directed by Ben Wheatley and written by the brilliant Derek Kolstad, and starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL is the latest collaboration from this powerhouse team. Described as a kinetic neo-Western action film with Odenkirk as an unassuming substitute sheriff with a troubled past who, after moving to a quaint Midwestern town, responds to a bank robbery and unknowingly uncovers something far more explosive. NORMAL is weird, wacky, and wonderful, brimming with originality, spurting blood, fantastic action, great deadpan humor, and first-rate performances. It is an absolute blast.

Jeff and Phil welcome back their best friends in podcasting, cultural critic/journalist/educator Rebecca Sun and Dino-Ray Ramos of DIASPORA, to re-connect, reset, and share what they've been watching/consuming/experiencing in pop culture and beyond. They discuss, among other things, Asians in the Regency romance of Bridgerton; the possibility of a brown James Bond in Riz Ahmed's offbeat comedy Bait; the audacity of multiple Asians cast members as health care workers on The Pitt; and how far pretty privilege can get you on The Traitors. This episode is sponsored by Chinese Republicans, a new play from Roundabout Theatre Company.

In the whimsical Prime Video comedy series Bait, the great Riz Ahmed plays Shah, an actor in the middle of a career downturn who lands an audition to be the next James Bond. But when this leaks to the public, the social media reactions to the possibility of a brown 007 are unhinged. And one particularly disturbing response shakes Shah's confidence and sends his personal life into a tailspin.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Riz Ahmed wants to make "category killers" — and ‘Bait,' his new Prime Video series about a London actor faking a James Bond audition, is exactly that. He sits down with Newsweek's H. Alan Scott to talk about the show's wild tonal range, why being brown in the West can feel like living in a spy thriller, and whether ‘Bait' is, as he puts it, his James Bond audition. Not saying it is, not saying it isn't.

When Riz Ahmed feels lost in his creative endeavors, he asks two questions: Does it stretch me? Does it stretch culture? Those questions have guided Ahmed to an Oscar- and Emmy-winning acting career (The Long Goodbye and The Night Of, respectively), a boundary-pushing music catalog, and stories that have redefined who gets to be seen at the center of the frame. And now, in the latest chapter of his career as WePresent's guest curator, he's posing those two questions to all creatives.    In this episode of Creative Control, we explore how Ahmed is utilizing his role as WePresent's guest curator (a role previously held by the likes of Marina Abramović, Solange Knowles, and Olafur Eliasson) and how his upcoming version of Shakespeare's Hamlet ties directly into his vision of stretching culture—particularly at a time when it needs it most.  For more of the latest business and innovation news, go to https://www.fastcompany.com/news To listen to the latest episodes of Creative Control on Fast Company:https://www.fastcompany.com/podcasts/creative-control
