Podcast appearances and mentions of Rob Reiner

With vaccinations increasingly a point of political tension, correspondent Jon Wertheim reports on the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program – a “no fault” vaccine court that balances the public health benefits of widespread vaccination with rare cases of harm to individuals. Founded in the 1980s, the program has paid out billions of dollars to thousands of Americans. International crime groups are finding new, sophisticated ways to infiltrate the global supply chain online, stealing hundreds of millions of dollars of goods per year. Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi reports on the growing threat of cargo theft and how 24 thousand bottles of Guy Fieri's tequila vanished on their way to the warehouse. Correspondent Lesley Stahl visits Rob Reiner on the New Orleans set of Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, the long-awaited sequel to his 1984 cult classic, This Is Spinal Tap. Four decades after launching the now-beloved mockumentary genre with a fully improvised classic, the director of When Harry Met Sally, Stand By Me, A Few Good Men, and The Princess Bride reunites the band for an encore.

El aniversario de esta semana nos lleva a recordar a uno de los grandes genios de la historia del cine. Este 4 de octubre se han cumplido 130 años del nacimiento de Buster Keaton y en este episodio os contamos su historia. También tenemos aniversario en el cine español, los 30 años que se cumplen del estreno de “Nadie hablará de nosotras cuando hayamos muerto” de Agustín Díaz Yanes. Charlamos con el director Antonio Vicent a punto de estrenar su primera película, “Aves de corral”, y en la sección “En pos de la aventura” Jack Bourbon ha elegido esta semana “La princesa prometida” de Rob Reiner, una de las películas más idolatradas de los años 80.

Elle est l'une des romancières les plus lues de France : Virginie Grimaldi aurait vendu plus de 8 millions de livres depuis ses débuts. Et chaque année, aux alentours des vacances, ses livres fleurissent dans les Relais de gare, promesses de petites lectures légères pour le train ou la plage. De la « chick lit », vraiment ? Derrière ces abords de « littérature pour gonzesse » ou de « romance urbaine », Grimaldi parle de sujets graves : de dépression, de deuil, de ruptures… Et remet en question ce que les lectures de vacances peuvent nous apporter. Car si les vacances sont des moments de détente ou de divertissement, elles sont aussi les rares moments de pause où l'on peut prendre le temps de méditer sur des sujets plus graves. Autres oeuvres citées : Middlemarch de George Eliot Les Racines du ciel de Romain Gary Tout le bleu du ciel de Melissa Da Costa En Thérapie d'Eric Toledano et Olivier NakacheQuand Harry rencontre Sally de Rob Reiner et Nora Ephron Les Contemplations de Victor Hugo Absalon, Absalon! de William Faulkner Un homme qui dort de Georges PerecFace aux ténèbres de William Styron (?)

Ryan and Dylan recap the winners of the 2025 Emmy Awards and then determine whether or not Rob Reiner's films turned into duds following his legendary streak-ending film, North.

Click here to try it out!This week we celebrate the late, great Robert Redford the Bad Dads way: with a chaotic Top 5 Roberts and a deep dive into All the President's Men — the newsroom thriller where Redford and Dustin Hoffman painstakingly peel back Watergate until the whole presidency caves in. It's cigarettes, typewriters, and journalism that actually mattered.What we get intoRedford & Hoffman, peak charisma: why their odd-couple energy (and immaculate 70s fits) makes procedural journalism feel electric.The craft stuff: split-diopter shots, sound design that drowns phone calls in newsroom chaos, and that final typewriter barrage (“Nixon Resigns”) still landing like a gut punch.Truth vs. proof: editors wrestling with “we know it” versus “we can print it,” and why that tension hits even harder now.Deep Throat decoded: “follow the money,” the parking-garage paranoia, and how the film weaponises quiet dread.Top 5 Roberts (no De Niro, no Redford — house rules)We raid film, TV, music and pop culture for the best Bobs/Roberts/Robbies—from Sideshow Bob and Robert Englund to Robert Mitchum, Rob Reiner, Bob Odenkirk, Robert “Bob with bitch tits” Paulson, SpongeBob (Robert) Squarepants, and some gloriously fringe picks (RIP Rob Garrison, Cobra Kai's OG goon). Expect arguments, deep cuts, and at least one guided detour through Spinal Tap and King Crimson.The chaotic quiz: Redford or Red Ford (…or both)?Sidey springs a quiz where every answer is either Redford (the man) or red Ford (the car on screen). Cue confusion, Christine vs Cars, The Sting, All Is Lost, and a tricksy Winter Soldier “both” that broke brains and buzzers.Content note: swearing, savage tangents, and the occasional anatomical overshare. If you came for “balanced coverage,” you've wildly misread the brand.

Paul and Erin discuss two films about obsessive fandom: Rob Reiner's 1990 Stephen King adaptation MISERY, and Tony Scott's 1996 De Niro/Snipes thriller THE FAN.

Hollywood legend Rob Reiner had a string of smash hits in the 80s and 90s and has now written a new book on the iconic Spinal Tap, called ‘A Fine Line Between Clever & Stupid'. He joins Piers Morgan to talk about free speech in today's political climate, drawing on the death of Charlie Kirk and the leftwing rhetoric of comparing Donald Trump to Hitler. He also tells Piers the things said about him by Kamala Harris and Jake Tapper in their books are not true and reveals the movie he'd most like to be remembered for.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- A jury has found Ryan Routh guilty of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at his golf course in Palm Springs, Florida in 2024. Routh was also found guilty of several firearm violations and of assaulting a federal law enforcement officer. Routh, who made the unusual decision of representing himself in court, attempted to stab himself after hearing the jury's verdict. 6:10pm- According to former Vice President Kamala Harris's new book, she was incredibly disappointed by Tim Walz's debate performance against JD Vance. Shocking! 6:30pm- Rob Reiner was recently on Bill Maher's podcast—where he seemed to suggest the left shouldn't engage in dialogue with conservative political perspectives. By the way, has Reiner been in any movies recently?

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITLightning strikes in the most unexpected ways. The mystery of two young elk hunters found dead in Colorado has finally been solved with a shocking twist – they were instantly killed by lightning, leaving only slight burns on their bodies. It's a stark reminder of nature's unpredictable power even for experienced outdoorsmen.Meanwhile, the political landscape grows increasingly volatile. Keith Oberman deleted threatening social media posts directed at CNN analyst Scott Jennings with the ominous words "You're next, mother effer" – a troubling example of how political disagreements are escalating beyond healthy discourse. This comes as ABC reinstates Jimmy Kimmel while Sinclair Broadcasting refuses to air him until he apologizes for recent controversial remarks.On a more thoughtful note, Bill Maher and Rob Reiner engaged in a fascinating debate about whether people from opposite political sides should continue talking to each other. Maher insists dialogue must continue regardless of disagreements, while Reiner argues some baseline agreement on facts must come first. Their exchange perfectly captures America's struggle with maintaining civic discourse across deepening divides.Taking a breather from the heavy news, I've been rewatching "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and rediscovering the joy of revisiting favorite shows. Tony Shalhoub's brilliant performance, the stunning period costumes, and the complex family dynamics make it worth multiple viewings. This led me to wonder: what movies or shows do you find yourself returning to again and again? For me, "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" and the "Ocean's" movies never lose their charm.

On the Saturday September 20, 2025 edition of The Richard Crouse Show we meet musician, songwriter, and director Gerald Casale. Best known as a co-founder, co-lead vocalist, and bassist of band DEVO. He was a key creative force behind DEVO’s satirical, art-driven sound and aesthetic, contributing to hits like “Whip It” and directing many of their innovative music videos. His work is deeply influenced by his experiences as an art student at Kent State University during the 1970 May 4th massacre, which shaped his views on societal devolution, a core theme in DEVO’s music. Today we talk about evolution of a band famous for singing about devolution. Then, we spend time with actor, director, producer, screenwriter and political activist Rob Reiner. He starred on the classic sitcom “All in the Family,” directed the coming-of-age drama "Stand by Me," the romantic fantasy "The Princess Bride," and the rom-com classic "When Harry Met Sally," and his company Castle Rock Entertainment produced hits like "Seinfeld and "The Shawshank Redemption." Today we talk about the classic “Spinal Tap,” which he directed and starred in, the new sequel “Spinal Tap: The End Continues” and his new book, “A Fine Line Between Stupid and Clever: The Story of Spinal Tap.” Then actor Rade Šerbedžija stops by to talk about "Rise of the Raven," a 10-part historical epic series about Hungarian commander János Hunyadi’s battles against the Ottoman Empire in the 15th century, and tell a grewat story about working with Maggie Smith.

Over the course of his long and distinguished career, Rob Reiner has directed some of the most beloved and acclaimed films in Hollywood history. But he had never directed a sequel until ‘Spinal Tap 2: The End Continues.' In this episode, Reiner breaks down why he decided to reunite with Christopher Guest, Michael McKean, and Harry Shearer for one last mockumentary 41 years after they invented the genre with ‘This Is Spinal Tap.' He talks about how the comedy of the film has evolved now that they are in their 70s and 80s, and the secret to playing the straight man opposite someone as effortlessly funny as Guest. Reiner also gets into the state of America under Trump 2.0, how Elon Musk drove him away from Twitter, and what he learned about being a politically outspoken celebrity from Norman Lear and Jane Fonda. Finally, he reflects on his relationship with his late father Carl Reiner, recalls the first time he met Mel Brooks, and considers the enduring legacy of classic films like ‘The Princess Bride' and ‘When Harry Met Sally.'Follow Matt Wilstein on Bluesky @mattwilstein Follow The Last Laugh on Instagram @lastlaughpodHighlights from this episode and others at The Daily Beast Hosted on Acast.

We're here to provide a little distraction -- and a positive online community during these weird times -- with the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast. Our first movie isn't exactly escapist fun, though: "The Long Walk," which is one of the better Stephen King adaptations. It's beautifully written and acted but also harrowing to watch, especially now. This may not be the best week to see people getting shot in the head, but this movie is really good otherwise. In theaters. Next up, it's "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," the painfully unfunny sequel to the 1984 comedy classic "This Is Spinal Tap." It would be impossible to match the brilliance of a movie that invented an entire genre, but this one really doesn't. Rob Reiner, Michael McKean, Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer are all back, along with some major celebrity cameos. In theaters. If you're looking for elegant pleasures, we have "Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale." Everyone's lives are in flux in 1930s England, but they look great doing it. And despite their financial woes, they find time to get gussied up for the horse races at Ascot. This tidies up all the stories in satisfying fashion. In theaters.

This Is Spinal Tap ushered in a new wave of genre films with its satirical, mockumentary style. It is hailed as a classic, having found its way into the U.S. Library of Congress' National Film Registry. And if that isn't proof enough, the Criterion Collection is releasing a director-approved 4k restoration of the film. Now, over forty years later, the band is back together for one last show. Spinal Tap II: The End Continues finds bandmates David St. Hubbins, Nigel Tufnel, and Derek Smalls (all reprised roles by Michael McKean, Christopher Guest, and Harry Shearer) reuniting on stage after much time apart. Along with documentarian Marty DiBergi, the band tries to recapture the magic that was in the original This Is Spinal Tap. Today on FilmWeek, Larry Mantle is joined by Rob Reiner, co-writer and director of both films to talk about the legacy of the original This Is Spinal Tap for both film and music, and the unique task of continuing that legacy four decades later. SPINAL TAP II: THE END CONTINUES is in Wide Release and available in IMAX theaters. A Director-Approved 4K UHD edition of THIS IS SPINAL TAP will be released from the The Criterion Collection on Tuesday, September 16.
