The U.S. now owns a big chunk of Intel. That's a huge deal.

Last month, President Donald Trump announced an unusual deal. Intel, the biggest microchip maker in America, had agreed to give the United States a 10 percent stake in its business. That means the U.S. government is now Intel's largest shareholder — and a major American company is now a partially state-owned enterprise. This deal has raised a lot of eyebrows. The U.S. government almost never gets tangled up with businesses like this. Some have accused the president of taking a step toward, well, socialism.But the Intel deal didn't come out of nowhere. It's actually the latest chapter in one of the most aggressive economic experiments the United States has ever attempted. An experiment that Trump is now taking in a surprising new direction. On today's show, we unpack the Intel deal. Where did it come from, and what does it say about President Trump's unconventional approach to managing the economy. For more: - The President's Golden Share in U.S. Steel  - Bringing a tariff to a graphite fight  - A controversial idea at the heart of BidenomicsSubscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.This episode was hosted by Jeff Guo and Keith Romer.

Red Sonja It's been an age since we've seen Red Sonja... a Hyborian Age in fact! Since the characters creation in 1934, her adaption to comics in 1973 and the first film's release in 1985, she has caught the minds of innumerable great creators, artists and storytellers. She has also shown up in this film. After 2008's aborted Robert Rodriguez helmed version which was to star Rose McGowan, it's been a long time between drinks for the OG beautiful barbarian. it's obviously harder to get actors interested in scale mail bikinis in the modern market... it seems you just have to wait long enough and drop the budget enough that eventually someone just says "Screw it, why not?" and thats how we got here... All four of the review team are in for this review, "Occasionally Red Jill", "Pleasantly Earth-toned Peta", and "Concerningly Puce Dion". Though they are all mightily annoyed with "No Confirmed Colour Quinny" for his terrible choice... He's in movie-choosing-jail for a while yet to come... Synopsis The film follows the adventures of the nomad barbarian Sonja, who unites a group of unlikely warriors to face off against Dragan and his deadly consort Annisia. https://youtu.be/Lk7ItIJwAhE?si=Q1L00K3xC2kWIRvK As always, a Hyborian high five to the barbarian and babe-arians who join in with the conversation on the Twitch stream, live each Tuesday night at 7:30pm AEDT. And an especially huge thanks to any of the generous stop-motion cycplopses who are kind enough to support us by smashing a tip in our jar via Ko-Fi, or subscribing on twitch... every bit helps us to keep the gladiator pits mucked out and the scale mail polished....

There's one question we seem to be hearing everywhere: “Is my job safe from AI?” Dozens of you, our listeners, have written to us about this. Saying things like, “Maybe my yoga teacher side gig is actually my safest bet now,” and “My parents were in real estate, and I never thought I'd say it ... but maybe that's what I should do?”  If only there were a list that could tell you which jobs are safe from AI. We go looking for that list…and find that the AI future is going to be even weirder than we'd imagined.Today on the show: We talk to two researchers who have come up with some first drafts of the future. We learned more about the machines that might be coming for our jobs, and also, more about what it actually means to be human.Subscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.Today's episode was produced by Eric Mennel and edited by Marianne McCune.

Welkom bij Nerd Culture #223, de Gamekings podcast waarin we het laatste nieuws en de heetste geruchten uit films, series en alles nerdy bespreken. In deze aflevering duiken we onder meer in de langverwachte terugkeer van Knight Rider op het grote scherm, gemaakt door niemand minder dan de makers van Cobra Kai. Daarnaast hebben we groot Marvel-nieuws: Jon Bernthal's Punisher krijgt volgens de laatste berichten een prominente rol in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Natuurlijk checken we ook trailers, opvallende statements en het laatste nieuws rondom franchises als Star Wars, Gladiator en Gremlins.The Punisher krijgt een grote rol in Spider-Man: Brand New DayHet MCU staat op scherp, want er gaan sterke geruchten dat Jon Bernthal's Punisher een grote rol krijgt in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Volgens scooper Daniel Richtman zou Frank Castle zelfs meer in beeld komen dan andere helden die in de film verschijnen, zoals Hulk en mogelijk Yelena Belova. Dat is groot nieuws: fans verwachten vaak een cameo, maar dit klinkt alsof Castle echt verweven raakt met Peter Parker's verhaal. Hoe hard gaat Marvel durven om de rauwe, gewelddadige toon van The Punisher samen te brengen met Spidey's wereld?Met Tom Holland terug als Peter Parker, Zendaya als MJ en Michael Mando's Scorpion die opnieuw zijn opwachting maakt, belooft dit een stevige mix van bekende gezichten en nieuwe dreigingen. Regisseur Destin Daniel Cretton (Shang-Chi) heeft zijn handen vol, maar de potentie is enorm. In de podcast bespreken we hoe deze crossover de Spider-Man films kan veranderen – en of Frank Castle misschien wel dé gamechanger wordt voor Phase 6. Makers Cobra Kai komen met Knight Rider filmNa jaren van geruchten lijkt het eindelijk te gebeuren: Knight Rider krijgt een officiële filmadaptatie. De iconische 80's serie die David Hasselhoff tot superster maakte – met de onvergetelijke KITT, de AI Trans Am – wordt nieuw leven ingeblazen door de makers van Cobra Kai. Universal heeft bevestigd dat Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg en Josh Heald niet alleen het script schrijven, maar ook de regie en productie op zich nemen. Daarmee lijkt het project meer kans te maken dan eerdere pogingen, want rebootplannen rondom Knight Rider gaan al meer dan vijftien jaar rond. Van Kevin Hart en John Cena tot James Wan en zelfs gesprekken met James Gunn en Robert Rodriguez: niets kwam echt van de grond. Maar nu het team achter Cobra Kai aan het stuur zit, is de verwachting hoog. In de podcast bespreken we of Knight Rider nog relevant kan zijn in 2025, en hoe AI anno nu perfect past bij KITT's comeback.Timestamps:00:00:00 Nerd Culture #22300:00:40 Donkey Kong Bananza00:04:48 Gamescom00:05:34 Supermarkten00:11:27 B&B Vol Liefde00:13:10 Twin Peaks00:14:25 28 Years Later00:15:34 Huey op zwemles00:22:10 Bugonia Trailer00:25:10 Superman nieuws (Koos krijgt een krat bier!)00:30:36 Stelling 1: The Last Jedi is beter dan The Empire Strikes Back00:35:38 Star Wars deelt eerste beeld Starfighter00:42:33 Volledige cast Star Wars: Starfighter00:45:47 John Williams houdt niet van filmmuziek 00:50:14 Stelling 2: Filmmuziek (John Williams) kan zich meten met orkestrale muziek00:53:46 SISU: Road to Revenge Trailer00:56:27 John Bernthal's Punisher is geen cameo maar de grootste rol naast Spider-Man00:59:18 Jackie Chan's stunt team werkt aan Spider-Man Brand New Day01:00:34 Wanneer wordt teasen spoiler?01:02:40 Kumail Nanjiani dacht 10 jaar in de Marvel Cinematic Universe te spelen01:04:01 War of the Worlds 4 miljoen keer bekeken01:07:17 Makes van Cobrai Kai komen met Knight Rider film01:10:28 Streamer Raja Jackson slaat worstelaar bijna dood01:15:23 Pierce Brosnan staat open voor terugkeer als James Bond01:18:26 Ridley Scott is onvermoeibaar en werkt aan Gladiator 301:20:09 Gremlins 3 toch opeens in limbo01:22:46 The Lowdown Trailer

After witnessing a murder, a high school photographer believes the teachers at his school have been taken over by aliens and he investigates the odd phenomena sweeping over his school.The Faculty is a 90s scifi horror movie like no other, paying homage to so many films before it. It features an amazing cast of breakout stars, and it's directed by Robert Rodriguez. It truly feels like The Thing meets The Breakfast Club as a sci-fi mystery that stars Elijah Wood, Josh Harnett, Jordana Brewster, Clea Duvall, Robert Patrick, Famke Janssen, Piper Laurie, Usher, Salma Hayek, and Christopher McDonald to name a few. It's a cult classic that pits an unlikely band of high school teens, meeting all the stereotypes, against the teachers who are in charge and play host to a parasitic alien race.

When news broke that a Japanese company, Nippon Steel, was buying the storied American steel company U.S. Steel, it was still 2023, just before an election. And right away, politicians from both sides of the aisle came out forcefully against the deal, saying the company should remain American. Before leaving office, President Biden even blocked the sale. But in a dramatic twist a few weeks ago, President Trump approved it. With a caveat: the U.S. would get what Trump called 'a golden share' in U.S. Steel.On our latest show: what even is a "golden share"? When has it been used before, and why? And, could deals like this be a good way to get foreign investment in American manufacturing...or is it government overreach?

Will Rodriguez ever get his edge back? How great is Mickey Rourke in this movie? Was having three different musicians do three different scores a good idea? Should the Hartigan story have been cut in two or should the film have been left as the triptych with the Hartnett character as the bookend?

Sin City stars Bruce Willis, Clive Owen, Mickey Rourke, Josh Hartnett, Rosario Dawson, Benicio Del Toro, Michael Clarke Duncan, Carla Gugino, Rutger Hauer, Jaime King, Tommy Flanagan, Nick Offerman, Marley Shelton, Nick Stahl, Elijah Wood, Devon Aoki, Alexis Bledel, Powers Boothe, and the late, great Michael Madsen as Bob; directed by Robert Rodriguez.

The product was a hit - but the retail model wasn't. Faced with mounting losses, Josh shut down the store and moved into a warehouse to pivot to wholesale. With time, tenacity, and a now-iconic clear jar, Talenti became a national sensation, and in 2014, was acquired by Unilever.

This week, the Three Guys ain't just talkin' movies—they're takin' you hostage on a one-way ride through From Dusk Till Dawn. Strap in as they break down the blood-soaked brilliance of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino's grindhouse lovechild, where crime meets creatures and the Gecko Brothers raise hell… until hell raises back. Join the crew as they dissect this genre-jumping fever dream—from slick bank robberies and tequila-fueled pit stops to Salma Hayek's snake-charming seduction and that first jaw-dropping vampire reveal. We're digging into everything: character arcs, head-exploding practical effects, and that dirty dive bar of a soundtrack that slaps harder than a vampire in sunlight. So pour a drink, keep your stakes sharp, and remember what Seth Gecko always says: “OK, ramblers. Let's get rambling.”

Over the last few months U.S.-China trade relations have been pretty hard to make sense of – unless you look at what's happening through the lens of game theory. Game theory is all about how decisions are made, based not just on one side's options and payoffs, but on the choices and incentives of others.So, are Donald Trump and Xi Jinping competing in a simple game of chicken? Or is the game more like the prisoner's dilemma? On today's show, we try to decide which of four possibilities might be the best model for this incredibly high-stakes game. And we take a look at who is playing well and who might need to adjust their strategy.For more on the U.S.-China trade war: - The 145% tariff already did its damage - What happened to U.S. farmers during the last trade war - What "Made in China" actually meansThis show was hosted by Keith Romer and Amanda Aronczyk.

Western wear is having a moment – and so is the upstart Western brand Tecovas. Founder Paul Hedrick is a Texan who realized that cowboy boots were either too expensive or too cheap, so he decided to create a premium brand with an attainable price. He traveled repeatedly to the cowboy boot capital of the world – León, Mexico – to obsess over every detail, and later he expanded his DTC business to make a surprising bet on brick-and-mortar stores. Today, beyond boots, Tecovas sells jeans, shirts, dresses, hats, and bags, and this year, the company expects to do more than $300 million in sales.This episode was produced by Alex Cheng with music composed by Ramtin Arablouei.

The U.S. exports billions of dollars worth of agricultural products each year — things like soybeans, corn and pork. And over the last month, these exports have been caught up in a trade war. U.S. farmers have been collateral damage in a trade war before. In 2018, President Trump put tariffs on a bunch of Chinese products including flatscreen TVs, medical devices and batteries. But China matched those tariffs with their own retaliatory tariffs. They put tariffs on a lot of U.S. agricultural products they'd been buying, like soybeans, sorghum, and livestock. That choice looked strategic. Hitting these products with tariffs hurt Trump's voter base and might help China in a negotiation. And in some cases, China could find affordable alternative options from other countries.Today on the show: what happened in 2018, how the government prevented some U.S. farms from going bankrupt, and what was lost even after the trade war ended.This episode was produced by Sylvie Douglis and edited by Jess Jiang.

While apple picking on a farm near Philadelphia, Abhi Ramesh learned that a massive amount of “misfit” produce goes to waste. He started running ads on Facebook to see if people would pay a discount for subscription boxes filled with twisted carrots and oddly-shaped squash. Demand was so strong that Abhi soon hired drivers on Craigslist to deliver produce around Philly from a rented warehouse. Four months in, Misfits Market had thousands of customers and landed $2 million in venture capital to expand. The pandemic turbocharged its growth and the business evolved into an online grocery store offering 1100+ items.
