This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan crack open the VHS vault and dive into the magical, chaotic, and surprisingly emotional world of 1996's Matilda the movie that made every millennial believe two things: Reading unlocks superpowers Your principal should never be built like a retired Olympic shot-putter. Cam and Dylan break down the film's quirky charm, from Matilda's early genius days (reading Dickens before most of us could read our own names) to the Wormwoods the most aggressively neglectful yet hilarious parents ever portrayed on screen. Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman were in their BAG for this movie, serving peak-trashy comedy. Of course, no Matilda conversation is complete without talking about Miss Trunchbull the terrifying, chokey-building, child-yeeting villain who straight-up traumatized a whole generation. The guys revisit her most unhinged moments, debate whether she secretly invented CrossFit, and celebrate the triumphant scenes where Matilda finally turns the tables with some telekinetic justice. Along the way, Cam & Dylan dive into behind-the-scenes trivia, the film's Roald Dahl roots, why the chocolate cake scene lives rent-free in our heads, and how Miss Honey remains the gold standard for “teacher who actually cares.” If you grew up quoting this movie, hiding from Trunchbull in gym class, or wishing you could levitate cereal with your mind, this episode is pure nostalgic comfort food xtra butta included. Tune in, laugh with us, and rediscover why Matilda still hits with magic, heart, and just the right amount of childhood chaos. Wanna ask us something?!?

The Roald Dahl Retrospective is back after an almost two year hiatus. In this episode, Arun, Patricia, and special guest Eli a.k.a. The Hero of Tomorrow discuss about the 2025 Netflix animated film The Twits based on the 1980 film of the same name starring Margo Martindale, Johnny Vegas, Emilia Clarke, Natalie Portman, and Alan Tudyk,. Mr. and Mrs. Twit are an evil, gross couple who play pranks on one another. They open a theme park called Twitlandia to attract people into giving them money only for it to shut down immediately. They also drive a truck filled with hot dog filling and shove it into the town's silo to make a huge mess everywhere. A young orphan girl named Beesha and her best friend Bubsy learn about Twitlandia and want to go there, but then learned it's ran by the same people who covered the town with hot dog filling. They get them arrested and find out they have been locking up and abusing a family of monkeys called Mugglewumps into using their tears to run Twitlandia. They set them free, but then things turn for the worse when Mr. and Mrs. Twit are out of jail and are running for mayor when they promise to make the town great again by reopening Twitlandia to generate money and convince the townspeople that Beesha is bad for stealing the Mugglewumps, the only source of power to make Twitlandia run successfully.When the film premiered on Netflix, it received mixed to negative reviews from critics and fans criticizing its gross humor, its strange art style, its forgettable musical numbers, its social and political commentary, and not fitting into the spirit of the book. What did Arun, Patricia, and Eli think of this film?

In this episode of The Growing Readers Podcast, host Bianca Schulze welcomes Academy Award-winning director, animator, and author Alan Barillaro to discuss his middle-grade novel, Bunns Rabbit. Best known for directing Pixar's beloved animated short Piper, Alan brings over 25 years of animation experience to the page with a deeply moving tale about a brave rabbit born with unusually short ears who must find her place in a world that fears her because she's different.What began as a vulnerable leap from the security of animation—where Alan could "hide behind a monster"—became an intimate exploration of belonging, courage, and following your heartsong. Alan shares how his childhood struggles with dyslexia and his habit of reading backwards shaped his creative journey, why Roald Dahl's The Witches became a pivotal moment in his development as a storyteller, and how his personal experiences became woven into Bunns's world. With honesty and warmth, he reveals why he never feels "up to the task" as a creator, how vulnerability is essential to authentic storytelling, and why treating young readers with the same respect as adults creates the most powerful connections.Read the transcript on The Children's Book Review.Highlights:From Animation to Prose: Why Alan's editor had to convince him to write a novel instead of a graphic novelThe Roald Dahl Awakening: How a fourth-grade book report on The Witches changed everythingLearning to Read Backwards: Alan's experience with dyslexia and finding his way to storytellingHide and Seek: Why animators feel like actors and how that prepared (and didn't prepare) Alan for writingPersonal Sketches to Story: How drawings from his son's baseball games and his daughter's monarch butterfly became part of Bunns's worldThe Garden Approach: Alan's method of throwing story "seeds" without knowing which ideas will growColor Scripts and Heartsongs: How film techniques like color scripting and specific music playlists shape his book writingBalancing Dark and Light: Creating illustrations that feel both shadowy and luminousEaster Eggs and Book Two: What's planted in Bunns Rabbit that will pay off in the sequelNotable Quotes:"I think Bunns would ask you to be true to yourself and that she would remind you that everyone feels that way... there isn't a single character in the story that doesn't feel a little different." —Alan Barillaro"I felt like Roald Dahl always spoke to me like you would speak to an adult... the honesty and there's like some truth to what he's saying or cruelty, like he has all these little sides of him that as a young reader I found just really attractive." —Alan BarillaroBooks Mentioned:Bunns Rabbit by Alan Barillaro: Amazon or Bookshop.orgWhere the Water Takes Us: Amazon or Bookshop.orgThe Witches by Roald Dahl, illustrated by Quentin Blake: Amazon or Bookshop.orgRevolting Rhymes by Roald Dahl, illustrated by Quentin Blake: Amazon or Bookshop.orgMadame Badobedah series by Sophie Dahl: Amazon or Bookshop.orgAbout Alan Barillaro:Alan Barillaro is an Academy Award-winning director, writer, and animator who has spent over 25 years at Pixar Animation Studios bringing beloved characters to life.

In this episode, we take a very special trip … to the Bizarro World.Imagine a place that is the opposite of the Cinebuds universe. A place where the two main characters are awful to their very core. A pair of people who hate everything, including each other. A couple who are … gulp … married.The duo at the center of Roald Dahl's novel-turned-Netflix-movie The Twits are truly the Bizarro version of Dori and Kpolly, who are notoriously nice and do not hate indiscriminately and are definitely NOT married. They do, however, manage to disagree about The Twits movie adaptation in their own agreeable way. Maybe you're more like Dori and will have trouble disconnecting the plot from certain real-world events or find the Twits “a little bit too much.” Maybe you're more like Kpolly and will deeply dig the "really impressive" animation and creative plot additions to the source material. Find out for yourself by listening to the episode in full and checking out The Twits on Netflix.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Co.

Every Halloween, we pick a kid-friendly horror movie from our childhood and take a cute, trauma-reviving trip down memory lane. This year, we went with none other than Roald Dahl's THE WITCHES (1990), celebrating 35 years of Anjelica Huston tearing off her wig and face, to the terror of many a Gen X and elder millennial child in the 90s.

Oli Julian - Kleptomaniacal Music - Scoring The Twits for Netflix In this episode of Sync Music Matters, I chat with composer Oli Julian, the man behind the gloriously mischievous scoring of The Twits for Netflix Known for his work on Sex Education and Catastrophe, Oli brings his signature blend of fun, rhythm and emotional punch to Roald Dahl's anarchic world with a soundtrack he describes as “kleptomaniacal” The new film, featuring the voices of Margo Martindale and Johnny Vegas as the grotesquely dysfunctional Mr and Mrs Twit, is anything but conventional  and neither is its score. Oli takes us behind the scenes of a sonic palette that includes Bulgarian choirs and what he calls “flatulent” baltic brass, giving the film an irreverent and delightfully chaotic tone. He tells the story of how, during one of his early meetings, he found himself playing the musical saw over Zoom -  a moment he jokes might have sealed the deal.  But beneath the playfulness, there's a deep sense of craft and authenticity to Oli's work. We talk about how his first dalliance with making music came in the from of a humble four-track recording of Wonderwall by Oasis.  As a drummer, Oli admits he's “rhythmically led,” and it shows — the propulsive energy of his cues often drives the emotional core of a scene. For him, groove and feel aren't just musical ideas, they're emotional anchors. During our chat, a familiar theme emerges - one shared by so many composers: the importance of authenticity and being confident in what you create.  The Twits might be a story about the world's most horrible couple, but under Oli Julian's mischievous baton, it's also a celebration of the beautifully bizarre - proof that even the strangest sounds can make perfect sense when they come from an honest place.

Andy Farnsworth joins KSL-TV to help audiences decipher #WhatToWatch for the weekend of October 17, 2025. Frankly, "Good Fortune" is a good watch! The new movie featuring Keanu Reeves, Aziz Ansari & Seth Rogen is a slow-burning comedy that gets even better once you think about it. Also in theaters, the historical thriller, and faith-fueled, story of "Truth & Treason” is the true story of a teenager who paid the ultimate price to stand up for his conscience in WWII-era Nazi Germany. Andy even sat down with the film’s writer and director, Matt Whitaker, to discuss the new film in this ‘Movie Show Digital Extra.’ Finally, Roald Dahl's "The Twits" gets an animated Netflix feature, including lots of departures from the book's story, but it's still kind of a weird mix of fun (and plenty of bodily function jokes). The brains behind Fan Effect are connoisseurs of categories surpassing nerdy, with a goal to publish a weekly "What to Watch on the Weekend" minisode taken from KSL-TV's Friday segment, and two deep-dives a month on shows, creative works, artists, local events, and other fandom topics.  Based in the beautiful beehive state, Fan Effect celebrates Utah's unique fan culture as it has been declared The Nerdiest State in America by TIME, and is hosted by KSL Movie Show's Andy Farnsworth and KSL Podcasts' KellieAnn Halvorsen.  Listen regularly on your favorite platform, at kslnewsradio.com, or on the KSLNewsRadio App. Join the conversation on Facebook @FanEffectShow, or Instagram @FanEffectShow.

Quite the story, this. Phil Johnston, in a special episode of Film Stories, takes us through his own tale, and how it led to a nomination at the Academy Awards. He and Simon chat through the struggles to get The Twits - an adaptation of Roald Dahl's book - off the ground, and how for a few weeks it all looked like it'd fallen apart.

Hey everybody! This week we are discussing Wes Anderson's adaptation of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Listen as we breakdown this fun, darkly comedic stop motion animated adaptation of the Roald Dahl classic. Enjoy!

Hi Everyone! I interviewed Erin Richardson, Illustrator. Here is more about Erin:As a lifelong artist, I've always been drawn to storytelling through illustration. Growing up, I spent countless hours lost in books, captivated by the details in the artwork and eager to create my own. My vivid childhood imagination still inspires me today—whether it's the cozy world of my beloved dollhouse or the magic of turning a simple idea into something tangible.My dream project is to build a 3D set to illustrate the story of a spunky girl navigating her emotions in a miniature world within her dollhouse. It's a tale of self-discovery, unlikely friendships, and realizing you don't have to shrink to escape.I'm inspired by all things that matter to kids—emotions, relationships, and the beauty found in small, everyday moments. My artistic influences include Jessie Wilcox Smith, Norman Rockwell, David Hohn, Arthur Rackham, Chris Van Allsburg. I loved the classics from storytellers C.S. Lewis, Roald Dahl, and Judy Blume. If there's an element of fantasy, magic, or adventure, I'm all in!Beyond illustration, I'm passionate about color, texture, and atmosphere, blending vintage aesthetics with modern storytelling. I've painted Trompe L'Oeil murals, designed hand-painted furniture, and created custom cards and advertising. Lately, I've been exploring 3D set design, finding joy in building miniature furniture and discovering new textures.  Studying the papercrafting and 3D world building from Samantha Cotterill, Nancy So Miller and Cybele Young, I am fascinated with the interaction between cut paper and the way a shadow falls from a structure in dimensional set.  If I am not illustrating, I can be found hiking the Rocky Mountains, trying a new recipe, or spending time with family and friends. Most of my illustrations are digital, using Photoshop and my Cintiq, yet I love traditional media like watercolor, gouache, ink, and cut paper.  I believe pictures open doors where words sometimes can't, offering kids a window into new worlds and deeper emotions.This year, my goals are to write and illustrate my own manuscript, expand my website with a store and blog, and continue honing my skills through SVS Learn. I'm excited about school visits and hope to inspire kids to believe they can achieve anything they set their minds to. Awards: Top 12 Critique Arena, 2022 SVS LearnWinner of the Rocky Mountain Chapter SCBWI Annual Calendar Contest, 2023Illustrator of the Month, September 2024 SCBWI Books:Oliver's Shadow, Brinkley Press, written by Martin Knight-Yeager.  When Oliver discovers his shadow disappears as soon as the light goes out, he decides his shadow must be afraid of the dark. Joined by favorite bear, Watson, they set out to find his shadow. This heartwarming tale of Oliver's misguided first impression about his shadow's disappearance leads them both to explore the unknown. Yet, it also allows the reader to explore a bit more about the fears we all face. As Oliver decides his shadow must be fearful of the dark, he also shares his concerns about being alone.   I'm Making a Wish, Tootsie and Teed, written by Linda Teed. One little girl's travels in her grandfather's car evoke an overflow of emotions that remain deeply woven in her heart. Years later, she recalls those early days as she makes new memories with her husband, children, and grandchildren. I'm Making a Wish is a tribute to all those that enjoy the simplicity of time spent together and the memories that are created for a lifetime.In development:  A Magic Stick Box, by author Michael Kujawa.  Release date TBD 2025Erin Richardson Designswww.erinrichardsondesigns.comIG: @erinrichardsondesigns21Thanks for listening!

Welcome back to Parenting Out Loud where we've got a brand new episode to start your weekend off right. On the show this week: The rise of the stealth mum. From Margot Robbie's press tour to your work colleague who's never mentioned having kids, we're exploring why hiding motherhood has become the new cultural currency. Plus, praising your child is a fraught business. Do you compliment their efforts, their appearance, their creations? Perhaps millennial parents are overthinking things... again. We discuss. And, there's a tiny internet feud happening on Facebook that we need to talk about. Plus, our recommendations:

In this episode we cover the incredible, improbable, extraordinary life of the wildly talented and controversial author of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Matilda and more: Roald Dahl.

Hook: Arrancamos nueva temporada con un relato de Roald Dahl que te agarra del meñique: una apuesta brutal —un Cadillac a cambio de un dedo— y una pregunta incómoda… ¿hasta dónde nos lleva la codicia cuando creemos que “no puede fallar”? Leemos y comentamos “El hombre del sur” de Roald Dahl, origen de una de las historias de Four Rooms, para explorar el filo entre lo lúdico y lo ludopático, la seducción del riesgo y el precio real de los caprichos. Entre risas y pullas, hablamos de vuelta al cole, límites del lenguaje y la percepción de la belleza (con sus patinazos), felicidad vs. dinero a partir de cierto umbral, y cómo la presión social/material puede dejar a nuestro alumnado emocionalmente al límite en apenas una semana de curso. Todo con el humor canalla de Siripecias y un remate literario: leer más Dahl (y no solo Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate). Momentazos: la escena del encendedor que “nunca falla”, el Cadillac como cebo, el cuchillo en alto… y un final que te deja mirando tus propios dedos (y decisiones).

El 13 de septiembre se celebra el "Día Internacional del Chocolate" conmemorando el nacimiento de Roald Dahl. Su obra Charlie y la fábrica de chocolate ha alimentado las fantasías de niños y mayores, y ha sido llevada al cine en dos ocasiones.

Simon Terry is the brand and marketing director, as well as owner (or as he prefers to describe himself, custodian), of the lamp company, Anglepoise, a product that has genuine claims to iconic status. Initially designed by George Carwardine in the 1930s and manufactured by Herbert Terry & Sons, over the years, the product has been used by the likes of Queen Elizabeth II, David Lloyd George, Picasso, Roald Dahl and Barbara Hepworth to name just a few. More recently, Terry has collaborated with fashion figures such as Margaret Howell and Paul Smith, as well as writing a design manifesto which talks about the importance of durability and repair. Importantly, the company now offers a lifetime guarantee for all its products. Happily too, it will be showing prominently at this year's Material Matters London – which runs from 17-20 September at Space House – celebrating the 90th anniversary of the 1227.In this episode we talk about: the pros and cons of running a family business; being ‘a small company with a big name'; how mistakes can lead to opportunities; his morning routine (which involves a spring); how the Anglepoise stays in perfect balance; the genius of George Carwardine; the product's evolution; why the Terry family handed the US market to Luxo; joining the family firm and making huge changes; his background in movies; initially feeling out of his depth; working with the brilliant Sir Kenneth Grange to reinvigorate the brand; the importance of repair; wanting to support design's grassroots; and why materials and systems are the company's future. You pre-register for Material Matters London here.Support the show

This is Aug-Heist: The Getaway! This week, we're running away with Fantastic Mr. Fox, a 2009 animated film directed by Wes Anderson. The quote-unquote “Fantastic Mr. Fox” - voiced by George Clooney - and his colorful cast of animal accomplices - including the voices of Meryl Streep, Jason Schwartzman, and Bill Murray - must escape from one perilous predicament after another when faced with the wrath of three local farmers. Anderson and co-writer Noah Baumbach adapted the beloved children's book by Roald Dahl, expanded on its plot, and created a vibrant world in stop-motion. The result was a hit, with the flick feasting on its fill at the box office and awards shows. But will it get off scot free with our fantastic foursome of fearsome hosts? Or will this fox tale wind up decorating our mantle?   For more geeky podcasts visit GonnaGeek.com    You can find us on iTunes under ''Legends Podcast''.
