A winter storm could cause havoc for Americans from Texas to New York with the possibility of massive power outages and flight cancellations. Around 180 million people are bracing for the winter weather that may bring subzero temperatures and heavy snowfall to much of the country. President Trump signed an executive order this week aimed at boosting the housing market. The goal is to increase the supply of homes available to buy by preventing big investors from purchasing single family homes for the rental market. CBS News business analyst Jill Schlesinger explains. YouTube says it wants to get rid of fake AI videos flooding social media feeds on its platform. CBS News MoneyWatch correspondent Kelly O'Grady explains what's driving the change. Prince Harry is testifying in a lawsuit against the owner of two British tabloids, the Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday. The newspapers' owner denies the allegations. Elizabeth Palmer reports on the emotional testimony. Behavioral researcher and peak performance educator Shadé Zahrai, who has coached Fortune 500 leaders, joins "CBS Mornings" to explain the key to finding confidence. Zahrai says it's important not to compare yourself to others and find trust in yourself. The "CBS Mornings" series "USA to Z," which brings stories from across the U.S. to celebrate 250 years of America, is focusing on "C" for Constitution. While just over half of Americans say "U.S. democracy is performing poorly or very poorly," Jan Crawford went inside the National Archives - home of the Constitution - and a classroom to see how future generations embrace what it stands for. Jessica Williams joins "CBS Mornings" to discuss the upcoming season of "Shrinking," which follows a therapist as he navigates life after the loss of his wife. She talks about her character, how her own mental health helps shape the role, and working with Michael J. Fox and Harrison Ford. The nominees for the 98th Academy Awards have been revealed.

The Untold Story Behind Reagan's ‘Tear Down

Ronald Reagan first visited the Berlin Wall in 1978, during the Carter administration. While there, he reportedly told his aides: “We've got to find a way to bring this down,” says Mark Joseph, producer of the 2024 film “Reagan.”“Reagan” is a biographical movie starring Dennis Quaid as Ronald Reagan and Jon Voight as KGB agent Viktor Petrovich.In this episode, Joseph shares why it took nearly 20 years to bring this film to the big screen, and what it was like to film during the height of COVID-era restrictions.Joseph, who's also the founder of MJM Entertainment, is the author of “Making Reagan: A Memoir From the Producer of the Reagan Film.”The movie is based on Paul Kengor's book “The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.”That book, Joseph said, helped him understand Reagan and his passionate drive to end what he called the “evil empire,” the Soviet Union.“There have been hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of books written on Ronald Reagan, but Kengor was the only one who went to the church Reagan grew up in and said: ‘Can I see the sermons that young Ronald Reagan would have heard as a child?' And the current pastor said they're in the basement, in the box. Nobody has ever asked to see them before.' So when he opened the box, he found a lot of anti-communist sermons by the preacher,” Joseph said.The film received sharply divided reviews: On “Rotten Tomatoes,” 98 percent of the audience gives a positive rating, but only 18 percent of critics' reviews are positive.That may be a new record.“We have the greatest gap between critics and film goers of any movie ever made in Hollywood history. ... I'm really proud of that. I don't make movies for critics. I make movies for the film goers,” Joseph said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

What if the biggest threat to your freedom isn't a bad decision - but a scoreboard you never agreed to? Philosopher C. Thi Nguyen joins Bankless to unpack how modern life quietly turns values into points: likes, GPAs, net worth, rankings, and performance metrics that feel objective - but often flatten what matters most. We explore what games really are, why “gamified” platforms like social media can be uniquely corrosive, and how “value capture” pulls you from meaning into measurable proxies. Then we get practical: playfulness, reflective control, and “value federalism” as ways to use metrics without letting them use you. ---

Comedy is the hardest genre to get right. Making people laugh once is tough; making them laugh for decades is almost impossible. Yet here we are in 2026, revisiting a film released in 1980 that still lands gags at a rate modern comedies can only dream of. This week on Born to Watch, Whitey and Gow tackle the undisputed benchmark of parody comedy in our Flying High (Airplane) Review, a movie that didn't just spoof disaster films; it rewired comedy forever.Known as Flying High here in Australia and Airplane! Everywhere else, this is the film that taught generations how powerful straight-faced absurdity can be. Serious actors, ridiculous situations, relentless visual gags and a script that fires jokes every few seconds without ever stopping to catch its breath. Watching it again now raises the big question: Does it still work in 2026?The short answer, absolutely.From the opening Jaws parody at the airport to the final moments on the runway, this film never lets up. There are jokes in the foreground, jokes in the background, jokes buried inside other jokes, and blink-and-you-miss-it moments that reward repeat viewings again and again. Whitey and Gow break down just how outrageous the gag density really is, and why that non-stop approach is exactly what modern comedies have lost.The cast is a huge part of what makes Flying High work so well. Robert Stack, Lloyd Bridges, Peter Graves and Leslie Nielsen all play it completely straight, refusing to wink at the audience even once. That contrast between deadly serious performances and utterly ridiculous dialogue is the secret sauce. Leslie Nielsen, in particular, launches what would become one of the great comedy second acts of all time, delivering lines like “Surely you can't be serious” with such conviction that it somehow makes them even funnier.Whitey and Gow also dig into the sheer insanity of the situations. A full hospital bed loaded onto a commercial flight. A child needing a heart transplant mid-air. Everyone eating the fish except the one person who doesn't get sick. A blow-up autopilot. A guitar smashing passengers in the head as it walks down the aisle. None of it makes sense, and none of it is supposed to.Overs and unders are discussed, with both hosts landing comfortably in the 35 to 40 watch range, a testament to just how embedded this movie is in their DNA. It's the kind of film that was always in rotation growing up, something the whole family could watch, quote and laugh at together. That shared comedy experience is something Whitey argues we no longer get.The episode also explores how Flying High set the template for everything that followed, from Naked Gun to Hot Shots and beyond, while also pointing out why so many parody films failed to replicate its magic. Awareness of what you are, commitment to the bit, and never stopping the joke train.Critical scores still back it up. A 7.7 on IMDb, 97% on Rotten Tomatoes, and a spot alongside absolute classics in movie history. Not bad for a film that proudly advertised itself as the winner of zero Academy Awards.This episode is packed with favourite scenes, forgotten gags, pop culture moments, questionable jokes that still somehow work, and plenty of Born to Watch side tangents along the way. If you love comedy, parody, or just laughing out loud at things you probably shouldn't, this is one episode you don't want to miss.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONIs Flying High the funniest comedy ever made?Which gag still kills you every time?Could a movie like this even get made today?Listen now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or at BornToWatch.com.au#FlyingHigh #AirplaneMovie #BornToWatch #ComedyClassic #MoviePodcast #80sMovies #ParodyFilms #FilmReview #CultCinema #LaughOutLoud

Stephanie also walks us through the journey of bringing her upcoming feature, TOW to the screen. Full Bio:Sundance Alumni Stephanie Laing is an Emmy-winning director, writer, and producer. Laing recently wrapped production on feature film, Tow, under her newly launched Cake or Death Pictures. Tow, which Laing also directs, is the inspirational true story of Amanda Ogle, an unhoused Seattle woman who fought her way out of tow-company hell to reclaim her life and the car that held it all together after receiving a tow bill for $21,634. Tow had its world premiere at the 2025 Tribeca Festival in the Spotlight Narrative film category, and was recently picked up by Roadside Attractions and Vertical for a 2026 theatrical release. Tow stars Rose Byrne as Ogle and currently holds a 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Additionally, Laing directed 3 episodes in season one of Apple TV's hit Jon Hamm series Your Friends and Neighbors, and she has directed 6 episodes for the upcoming season two, which she's also an Executive Producer on.

Prior to this, she was the series director of Jez Butterworth's Mammals starring Sally Hawkins and James Corden for Amazon Prime. A Sundance alumni, Laing's pilot Bootstrapped starring Sam Richardson was an official selection of Sundance in 2019. Laing's additional TV credits include HBO Max's Made For Love starring Billy Magnussen and Cristin Millioti, Love Life starring Anna Kendrick, and HBO's hit comedy series Veep which ran for seven seasons and won over 15 Primetime Emmy Awards.

This week we head back to 2005 to go behind the scenes on the Elektra movie, and find out how it became the WORST Fox Marvel offering! We'll explore the terrible box office performance, the terrible movie reviews, the major stars who didn't want to make the movie at all, the Daredevil appearance that was CUT from the movie(!), and we'll debate whether this movie deserves the 11% it has on Rotten Tomatoes!

What more can be said about the much maligned 1978 musical film 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' that hasn't been said already (11% on Rotten Tomatoes)? But this week's guest, multi-instrumentalist, artist and songwriter Robbie Gennet, contends that the movie - and especially its accompanying soundtrack - deserves a second look. Featuring the Bee Gees, Peter Frampton, and a slew of guest artists covering Beatles songs (AND produced by none other than George Martin!), as well as a murderer's row of side men including  Max Middleton, Wilbur Bascomb and Bernard Purdie, it's an eclectic, at times bizarre collection of songs you've known for all these years. We hope you will enjoy the show. Songs discussed in this episode: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band - Bee Gees with Paul Nicholas; Vacillate, Don't Wait (Live, 2025) - Robbie Gennet; I've Gotta Get A Message To You (Live at The Forum, 1976), Too Much Heaven - Bee Gees; I'm In You, Show Me The Way (Live) - Peter Frampton; Cause We've Ended As Lovers, Head For Backstage Pass - Jeff Beck; Fire and Brimstone - Hummingbird; Here Comes The Sun - Sandy Farina; Theme song from 'Which Way Is Up' - Stargard; Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds - Dianne Steinberg with Stargard; Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds - Elton John; I Want You (She's So Heavy) - Bee Gees with Donald Pleasence; Good Morning Good Morning - Bee Gees with Peter Frampton; Oh! Darling - Dana Fuchs; Maxwell's Silver Hammer - Steve Martin; Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise) - Bee Gees with Peter Frampton; Got To Get You Into My Life - Earth, Wind & Fire; Night Fever - Bee Gees; I Want You (She's So Heavy) - Eddie Hazel; Because - Bee Gees with Alice Cooper; Come Together - Aerosmith; A Day In The Life - Bee Gees; Get Back - Billy Preston; Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Finale) - Bee Gees, Peter Frampton, Cast; No Questions - Robbie Gennet

In this episode Colin interviews Brad Porteus, founder of BridgeGrades.org, a report card for Congress that grades politicians on how collaboratively or divisively they govern by compiling objective 3rd-party data. Bridge Grades offers citizen voters an alternative lens to evaluate and assess the performance of our United States legislators beyond ideology or party affiliation. Brad was motivated to create BridgeGrades.org because he believes toxic polarization and hyper-partisanship is holding us back. His multi-year quest is to build Bridge Grades into a transparent, open source, crowdsourced, and independently governed system protected from special interests. Durable and self-sustaining, Bridge Grades aspires to be a public utility that offers citizen voters an easy way to sort Congressional bridgers from dividers, creating incentives that can lead toward more collaborative governance for our common interests.

Today on Too Opinionated, we sit down with Director Anthony Lucero to talk about his new film, Paper Bag Plan! Synopsis: After being diagnosed with cancer, Oscar (Lance Kinsey) realizes his overprotectiveness may be holding his son Billy (Cole Massie) back from gaining independence. Determined to secure Billy's future, Oscar helps him build the skills needed for a job as a grocery store bagger. Their heartfelt journey highlights the challenges and triumphs of fostering self-reliance, revealing the deep love between father and son—and the courage it takes to let go. Anthony Lucero's directorial debut feature film, East Side Sushi, was picked up by HBO after screening at the Miami International Film Festival where it was also nominated for Best Screenplay. Written by Lucero, this drama/comedy indie favorite garnered 15 film festival awards nationwide, 8 Diosa de Plata award nominations including Best Picture and Best Director, has a 94% Rotten Tomatoes score and has the distinction of being listed as one of the "Top 10 Films of 2015" by SF Weekly and one of "The Most Overlooked Films of 2015" from the Los Angeles Times. In 2017, Lucero was selected as a U.S. Envoy and screened East Side Sushi at six U.S. Embassies and Consulates throughout Japan. Born and raised in Oakland, Lucero draws on his Chicano roots to create stories that are multicultural and socially relevant. After receiving his B.A. in Film from San Francisco State University, Lucero spent over a decade working in visual effects at George Lucas' Industrial Light and Magic, working on such films as Star Wars Episode I & II, Ironman, Pirates of the Caribbean and The Avengers.   Want to Watch: YouTube Meisterkhan Pod (Please Subscribe)

Its importance to film history is certain — but is it still fun to watch?  While much of Grand Illusion is unique, especially its bittersweet farewell to the pre-WWI European aristocratic order, it has directly influenced countless movies, including The Great Escape and The Shawshank Redemption, does it offer any surprises or unexpected delights to a new generation?

Happy New Year! The perfect way to end the year is with director John-Michael, or JM, Powell, and his genre thriller, VIOLENT ENDS (2025). In this episode, JM and I discuss the astonishingly moody cinematography -- the deer scene and a shootout will stay with you way after the film; his journey through film school and a grant that made this film possible, and his steady and sure approach to indie filmmaking.And let me add: VIOLENT ENDS is a perfect New Year's Eve film. Let the shootouts remain on the screen, grab a bottle of champagne, and welcome in the New Year with filmmaker JM Powell.In this episode, JM and I talk about:the incredible moody setting of VIOLENT ENDS and how setting portends to great filmmaking;how he got his start in filmmaking;whether you should go to film school;the story behind his first feature, THE SEND-OFF (2022);why he loves the Calgary International Film Festival;how he managed fatherhood and his advice for people having kids in the indie film space;the grant that made VIOLENT ENDS possible and his views on using film to shoot it (which was made impossible by a very mundane reason!);what people should expect to watch with VIOLENT ENDS;the moody cinematography, including whether the deer was real and more about the insane shootout scene near the end;how to handle both fantastic and negative reviews as a filmmaker;the vote of great actors on a particular project;what's next for him.JM's Indie Film Highlights: THE LAST STOP IN YUMA COUNTY (2023) dir. by Francis Galluppi; TOUCH ME (2025) dir. by Addison HeimannMemorable Quotes:"There's so many movies that take place in New York, but the good movies feel specific to that writer and that filmmaker.""I went to school in Dallas Fort Worth, so I think a lot of the people aspire to do like commercial work in Dallas.""I'm very much that personality where I'm...give me a problem and I'll figure out how to solve it.""Anywhere you can find yourself where you are orbiting and brushing up against story because story is everything.""You can create your own AFI community on YouTube.""In some ways, I think, micro budget, independent distribution is obsolete.""What matters to me more than shooting on film is capturing a good story.""I don't think most people are consuming film criticism. I think most film criticism, especially for cinephiles now lives on like Letterboxd...Rotten Tomatoes obviously, too, is a valuable asset. But these platforms cater to clickbait headlines and taglines that for better or worse...that has influenced our cinema discourse and our film criticism."Links:Follow JM On InstagramWatch VIOLENT ENDSSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

BEFORE WE BEGIN – the best way to enjoy today's stupidity is in the form of video, which as a special thank you to all of you for another great year, I have edited together and made FREE at patreon.com/funeralkazoo. No strings attached. Just a gift to you all, with hopes for happy holidays and a fantastic new year. –––––You ever watch a big, blockbuster sci-fi action adventure movie that turns out to be so bereft of technical and scientific merit or accuracy that you almost start to like it? Me neither! On today's very special Christmas Disaster Moviesode: we'll start by joining the shortest, worst, and probably my personal favourite business presentation of all time; we'll learn how the US government tried to spite it's enemies by giving the planet the Alderaan treatment, twice; and we'll meet the man tasked with fixing all this, and saving Earth, and everything on it, but who doesn't even know how to put on a coat.Welcome to the return of the disaster moviesode! We haven't done this in a while, but our last episode on Michael Bay's 1998 shlocktacular Armageddon was so popular, there was no way we weren't coming back to this. I promise if I win the lotto over the holidays, I'll make moviesodes a regular thing thing.Today's story, currently sits at 34% on Rotten Tomatoes. This is a film that critics called “a modestly fun exercise in disappointment”, and “as aggressively loud and obnoxious as it is tiresomely stupid”. It's 2 hours and 15 minutes, which I sat through so you didn't have to… it is my distinct pleasure to bring you this very special presentation, the 2003 Aaron Eckhart disaster masterpiece, The Core, made free to one-and-all here on Patreon as a thank you for another great year. Grab your popcorn and your safety glasses and kick your kids out of the room because otherwise this is going to make them stupider, and let's begin.–––––THANK YOU. Most shows survive at the whim of production companies and corporate sponsors, built from the top down. Doomsday doesn't exist because some network exec believes in it – it exists because actual people do. It's built from the bottom up, and it's been my privilege to bring you these stories. Just you, me, and a microphone. I don't do this for you, so much as I do this because of you.

Is Avatar: Fire and Ash really the lowest-rated film in the Avatar franchise so far? On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Roxy Striar breaks down early reactions and critical response to James Cameron's latest entry, including whether the Rotten Tomatoes score truly reflects the film's impact, scale, and ambition—or if expectations for the franchise have simply shifted over time. We also continue the conversation around alleged Avengers: Doomsday teaser leaks and what they mean for Marvel Studios and Disney in an era where spoilers spread instantly online. Can studios still control their biggest reveals, or is leak culture now unavoidable? Plus, Disney is reportedly moving forward with a live-action Gaston movie, sparking debate about the future of villain-led projects and animated remakes. AMC is planning a Point Break sequel series, revisiting the cult classic for television, while Netflix is developing a Kingmakers film as part of its expanding slate of high-profile adaptations. Finally, Fallout Season 2 is set to premiere a day early—what does this say about Amazon's confidence in the hit series and its growing franchise potential?
