THE SHAZAMILY JOINS THE DCEU!! Shazam! Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: / thereelrejects With Superman & the DCU soaring at the Global Boxoffice + Peacemaker Season 2 on the horizon, Andrew & Tara RETURN to their DCEU Marathon giving their Shazam! Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Analysis & Spoiler Review!! Andrew Gordon & Tara Erickson react to the electrifying 2018 DC Extended Universe film Shazam!, directed by David F. Sandberg (Lights Out, Annabelle: Creation). A refreshing blend of superhero action and heartfelt comedy, Shazam! follows 14-year-old Billy Batson (Asher Angel – Andi Mack, High School Musical: The Musical: The Series), a foster kid who is granted the ability to transform into an adult superhero (Zachary Levi – Chuck, Tangled) by the ancient wizard Shazam (Djimon Hounsou – Gladiator, Guardians of the Galaxy). With the help of his foster brother Freddy Freeman (Jack Dylan Grazer – It, Luca), Billy must learn to harness his newfound powers while navigating teenage life in a grown-up's body. The film's main villain, Dr. Thaddeus Sivana, is played by Mark Strong (Kingsman, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy), a man corrupted by the Seven Deadly Sins and bent on stealing Shazam's powers. As Billy embraces his heroic destiny, he discovers the importance of family and teamwork, especially when his foster siblings—played by Grace Caroline Curry, Meagan Good, Michelle Borth, Ross Butler, Adam Brody, and D.J. Cotrona—transform into a team of adult superheroes in one of the film's most crowd-pleasing, highly searched moments: the Shazam Family reveal. Packed with hilarious training montages, heartfelt family dynamics, and high-stakes action—especially the final battle at a winter carnival—Shazam! stands out as one of the most joyful entries in the DCEU.

Arjun Raghavan, CEO of Partners Capital is the man private equity executives trust with their money. And not just them. Partners Capital has evolved from managing private equity executives' wealth to overseeing $60 billion for smaller endowments, family offices, and foundations globally. In this conversation, Arjun speaks to Ross Butler about the firm's "Advanced Endowment Approach", emphasizing diversification, resilience, and early-stage access to niche opportunities. Origins and Growth Partners Capital was founded in 2001 to offer investment management services inspired by the endowment model. Initially focused on private equity partners, the firm expanded to serve smaller institutional clients and family offices. Under Arjun's leadership, the firm scaled operations globally, now managing $60 billion across Europe, Asia, and the US. Twin-Engine Investment Philosophy Central to Partners Capital's strategy is the twin-engine model. The beta engine focuses on cost-efficient diversification across traditional and alternative asset classes. Meanwhile, the alpha engine targets illiquid, high-return opportunities, providing both resilience and enhanced returns. Together, these engines ensure robust portfolio performance through cycles. Adapting to Market Dynamics In a challenging market environment marked by concentrated gains in public equities and the saturation of alternatives, Partners Capital remains agile. It prioritises resilience through true diversification, embracing strategies like private debt, venture capital, and specialist asset management. Learn more about your ad choices.

Ross Butler speaks with Edward Talmor-Gera, Founder and CEO of NewVest, and Matthew Chapman, Director at NewVest. NewVest is a pioneering company providing low-cost, diversified index funds for private equity, private debt, and other private market strategies — revolutionizing how investors access private markets. Insights: Why Passive Investing in Private Markets is Revolutionary Edward explains how indexing challenges traditional notions about private equity by providing diversified exposure to the market's average return, which has consistently outperformed the median. He reveals that 70% of private equity funds in any vintage year underperform the pooled average, making an index approach both efficient and attractive. Debunking Myths About Private Equity Performance Edward and Matthew address a common myth: that trying to select top-performing funds is the only way to succeed in private equity. They share data proving that relative performance persistence among fund managers is statistically limited, making an index strategy a reliable alternative. NewVest's Unique Approach Fund Structure: NewVest employs a no-management-fee structure, charging only a low carry. Access to Top Funds: NewVest invests in the 50 largest private equity and private debt funds each year, gaining near-complete access to the top players in the industry, including Blackstone, KKR, and Carlyle. Diversification and Cost Efficiency: By weighting investments according to target fund sizes, NewVest offers exposure to the asset class while drastically reducing fees and risk compared to active fund selection. The Evolution of Private Markets Investing Matthew emphasizes how passive instruments complement active strategies, allowing investors to focus on areas where they can achieve true alpha while leveraging the stability of an index for broader diversification. Future Plans and the Vision for Private Markets NewVest envisions a future where passive investing in private markets is as ubiquitous as it is in public markets. They aim to introduce sector-specific and niche indices, such as clean tech or geographic-focused products, and even indices for first-time funds. Aligning Interests and Democratizing Access Edward shares how NewVest's alignment with LPs and innovative approach is attracting institutions, family offices, and even individual investors.

Ross Butler speaks with David Whileman, Partner at Inflexion Private Equity, about the untapped potential of minority private equity investments. David shares how minority investing provides entrepreneurs with the resources to scale without selling their businesses. The conversation explores the fund's strategy, its impact on portfolio companies, and the competitive advantages of minority investments in addressing a vast market underserved by traditional private equity. Insights: The Untapped Potential of Minority Investments: David explains how minority investing offers private equity benefits without requiring businesses to sell outright. This approach opens private equity to 75% of companies that are not typically for sale, particularly family-owned or entrepreneur-led businesses. Inflexion's Partnership Capital Fund Performance: Since launching in 2015, the fund has raised £1.75 billion, completed 24 investments, and exited nine, including several that achieved exceptional growth. David emphasizes the fund's ability to serve as the first institutional investor for established companies averaging £350 million in value. Building Trusted Relationships: Key to minority investing is fostering trust and alignment with entrepreneurs. David highlights how Partnership Capital avoids prescriptive exit strategies, allowing for collaborative decisions that benefit both investors and business owners. Expanding Globally and Corporate Partnerships: Inflexion has extended its reach across Europe and recently into corporate partnerships, where it supports divisions of large corporations seeking independence while maintaining alignment with their parent companies. Value Creation Beyond Capital: Inflexion delivers more than funding, offering expertise in talent management, technology adoption, pricing strategies, and global expansion. Its offices worldwide provide portfolio companies with the tools to enter new markets and scale effectively. Cultural Fit and Talent Recruitment: David underlines the importance of hiring professionals with emotional intelligence and entrepreneurial mindsets. He describes Inflexion's team as diverse and collaborative, ensuring alignment with the needs of entrepreneurs.

Hans Lovrek stumbled on Medieval Florentine documents that showed structures were being used to align interests in ventures with high information asymmetry that were uncannily similar to today's limited partnerships. Through a method of historical institutionalism, Hans demonstrates how the same techniques have been used to solve similar problems, down the ages, and that today's private equity industry is based on ideas that successful trading nations have used before.

This week we discuss the latest film in the DC Universe - Shazam! Fury of the Gods - directed by David F. Sandberg and starring Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, Grace Caroline Currey, Jack Dylan Grazer, Rachel Zegler, Adam Brody, Ross Butler, Meagan Good, Lucy Liu, Djimon Hounsou, and Helen Mirren. Continuing where the first film left off, this film follows Billy Batson and his family of superheroes (Shazamily) empowered by the magic of the ancient wizard, Shazam. This film has drawn the discontent of many fans who struggle to see how an artifact of a toppled Warner Brothers regime can relate and connect with the new DCEU led by James Gunn. Nonetheless, any film should be able to stand on its' own legs and not rely on the ceaseless industry of interconnected content... right? Does this newest installment have the magic it needs to set itself apart, or has it been disenchanted by the studio circumstance it finds itself in? Listen to find out: But... Is Shazam! Fury of the Gods Good?If you'd like to suggest a film or film franchise, or if you'd just like to say hello, you can reach us at biigpodcast@gmail.com, @biigpodcast on Twitter, or @butisitgoodpodcast on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube!

Hey everyone, the sequel to the 2019 DC hit - Shazam! Fury of the Gods - has now hit theatres. I, unfortunately, had to wait a to see it because I was a little under the weather but I have now seen it and I can finally understand what people've been saying about this for the past couple of days. While I was a fan of the first Shazam!, this was easily my least anticipated DC film of the year because the trailers just seemed like this sequel had lost all of the heart and charm of the first movie, trading it for generic superhero stuff. Was I right in my concerns... or is Shazam! Fury of the Gods a GREAT entry into the DCEU? Find out in this SPOILER-FREE review. Shazam! Fury of the Gods: Directed by: David F. Sandberg Written by: Henry Gayden and Chris Morgan Shazam created by: Bill Parker and C.C. Beck Produced by: Peter Safran Executive Producers: Marcus Viscidi, Walter Hamada, Richard Brener, Geoff Johns, Dave Neustadter, Victoria Palmer, Adam Schlagman Music by: Christophe Beck Cinematography by: Gyula Pados Film Editing by: Michel Aller Casting by: Rich Delia Production Design by: Paul Kirby Cast: Zachary Levi, Asher Angel, Jack Dylan Grazer, Adam Brody, Ross Butler, Meagan Good, D.J.

Kathleen Robertson visits the YVR Screen Scene Podcast to talk about her years acting on Maniac Mansion and Beverly Hills 90210 and her current gig showrunning Roku's hit series Swimming With Sharks. The last – a dark thriller – is a reimagining of the 1994 film of the same title, about a Hollywood assistant who turns the tables on an abusive boss. But this time, the Hollywood assistant and the abusive boss are women: played by Kiernan Shipka and Diane Kruger respectively. Donald Sutherland, Thomas Dekker, Finn Jones, Erica Alexander, Ross Butler, and Gerardo Celasco also make appearances – as does Kathleen herself. In this fascinating and entertaining interview, Kathleen pulls back the curtain on Swimming With Sharks. She also takes us into her career journey, and talks about reinvention in an industry that isn't always welcoming of women who want to expand into new roles.

S2 E6: The Smile at the End of the Dock Did you watch season 2 of '13 Reasons Why'? If so, we need your input regarding what turned out to be the most heated (& fun) debate we've had in some time. Geoff believes this episode is where the story "jumped the shark" & that Zach is an asshole. Ian thinks it makes perfect sense why Hannah & Zach's #SummerOfLove wasn't included in her tapes & argues that Hannah stuck up for herself, ended the relationship & had no regrets about losing her virginity to Zach. To get to the bottom of this, we're reviewing the timeline of their romance while chatting about Zach's court testimony, Clay's existential crisis as the perfect image he's created for Hannah is falling apart, why Zach wanted to keep his relationship with Hannah a secret in the first place, who let Hannah down more (Mr. Porter or Zach), hooking up in high school & much more.
