This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we review True History of the Kelly Gang, Justin Kurzel's bleak, stylish and aggressively unromantic version of the Ned Kelly myth, starring George MacKay, Essie Davis, Nicholas Hoult, Charlie Hunnam and Russell Crowe.Before we get to Australian outlaw trauma, we discuss the important stuff: Dan's adult-nappy experiment, whether “pound a piss” is a viable subscription model, and Sidey's long-standing policy of treating every body of water as a toilet.Our top five is gangs / revolutions / rebellions, featuring:Chris remembering the Romanian Revolution of 1989, childhood gunfire and shiny spent shellsThe Warriors and “Warriors, come out to play”The Wanderers and its soundtrackthe Rebel Alliance as freedom fighters / terrorists, depending on perspectiveSpartacus and historical inaccuracy done properlyPolice Academy 2 as, apparently, gang cinemaDaniel Day-Lewis method-acting complaints during Gangs of New Yorkthe Fremen from Dune and spice-fuelled jihadthe Baader-Meinhof gang, Joe Strummer T-shirts and Luke HainesGreen Street Hooligans and football-fight bravadochildhood gangs from Stand by Me and Itthe War Boys from Mad Max: Fury RoadThen we get into True History of the Kelly Gang, including:the film's fake-truth title gaga red dress, a white horse and an apocalyptic Australian bushyoung Ned Kelly watching his mother bargain with Charlie Hunnam's police sergeantRed Kelly, stolen cows, hidden dresses and emasculated fathersEssie Davis as Ellen Kelly: protective, seductive, terrifying and constantly pushing Ned toward violenceNed being offered a possible escape through education, only for his mother to sabotage itRussell Crowe's Harry Power, an enormous beard, and a family singalong about the “Constable Cunt”Ned being sold into outlawry and refusing Harry Power's pancakesCharlie Hunnam having a very bad day in a whorehousethe Sons of Sieve, dresses, mud-blackened faces and theatrical rebellionGeorge MacKay's adult Ned arriving through brutal prize-fightingNed and Joe Byrne's intense, ambiguous bondNicholas Hoult's Fitzpatrick in suspenders socks, spreading vice and misery wherever he goesMarlon Williams' astonishing hair and “I'm gonna be your daddy” energyFitzpatrick's predatory deal over Ned's sister and the confrontation that finally tips everything overEllen Kelly asking why Ned did not kill himpolice murders, severed ears, hostage-taking and bank robberythe famous homemade armoura botched train derailment plana strobing, bloody final siege where the police do not care who else is in the buildingEllen's command to “die like a Kelly”whether Australia's Ned Kelly mythology is heroic, poisoned, or bothIt is not an easy watch. Dan finds it long, bleak and punishing, though brilliantly acted. Reegs thinks it looks amazing and digs the way it interrogates Australian identity, colonial oppression and generational trauma. Chris appreciates the harshness and lack of romance. Sidey thinks this is probably closer to what survival and outlawry actually felt like than the cleaner folk-hero versions.Verdicts: Dan gives it a mid recommend; Reegs, Chris and Sidey are on strong recommends.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

MTD was at the beach.Jacob turned 91.And somehow that combination led to a discussion about Chris Hansen, suspicious party guests carrying cookies, and why Facebook Marketplace might be the most dangerous place on the internet. Before they even mentioned the movie, Brad unloaded weeks of Marketplace trauma.One guy negotiated the price......only to announce he was already on his way to buy someone else's bike.Another promised to show up Saturday morning, completely disappeared, read Brad's messages hours later, and never replied.Then there was the 3 a.m. message from a woman who wanted an e-bike delivered halfway across the state because her boyfriend would meet him there.At that point, Brad was convinced every Marketplace sale ends with either getting ghosted or getting kidnapped.Mark didn't exactly disagree.The two spent several minutes wondering why basic human communication seems to disappear the moment someone opens Facebook Marketplace. They even pitched an entire bonus episode devoted to reading ridiculous Marketplace messages because, frankly, they write themselves. Eventually they remembered they were supposed to review Obsession.The movie follows Bear, a painfully awkward guy who's too afraid to ask Nikki out, so instead he buys a magical "One Wish Willow" from the creepiest crystal shop imaginable.Rather than wishing for confidence......or money......or unlimited wishes......he wishes Nikki will love him more than anything else in the world.As expected, that turns out to be one of the worst decisions in horror movie history.Brad couldn't understand why Bear was so terrified to ask her out in the first place. Nikki practically hands him the opportunity on a silver platter, asking if he likes her while they're sitting alone in the car.Instead......he freezes.Then immediately cracks open the magical wish stick.Problem solved.Sort of. The guys loved the creepy crystal shop, especially the employee who looked less like a cashier and more like someone who escaped from another dimension.Brad's theory?The store isn't actually a store at all.It's basically hell with retail hours.Neither of them could figure out how a company selling cursed wishing sticks hasn't been sued into oblivion.Somehow the business just keeps operating. From there, the conversation wandered completely off the rails.William Baldwin was declared the greatest Baldwin because he got Sharon Stone and Cindy Crawford in consecutive movies.Russell Crowe was accused of eating Russell Crowe.They reminisced about AOL discs, Prodigy internet, Pizza Hut's Back to the Future Part II glasses, and enough forgotten '90s thrillers to fill several future episodes.At one point they honestly seemed to forget Obsession existed.Then someone remembered.Barely. When they finally returned to the movie, both hosts agreed it delivered exactly what horror fans have been missing: an original premise, genuine creepiness, and a villain who creates his own nightmare because he refuses to have one uncomfortable conversation.Not bad for a movie that cost less than most Hollywood catering budgets.

Jon Miltimore is back — writer, commentator, and one of the sharpest guys covering arts, culture, and politics on Substack. This is his second time on the show and we did not run out of things to talk about. Topics include: why California can't fight wildfires and why Native Americans had better land management practices; the World Cup finally breaking through in the US; what to actually expect at a Bob Dylan concert when you're a Dylan fan (Jon didn't get what he wanted; he has no regrets); Ben Askren's double lung transplant and why elite athletes bounce back from things that would end most people; the new Stallone biopic about how Rocky got made — specifically the part where a broke, dog-selling, parking-car Stallone turned down $1 million because he refused to not play the role himself; the Rocky franchise and what it means that it somehow worked as it became more absurd; working out at 44 and 47 and why exercise is mental health; the case for travel sports (and why Matthew Yglesias is wrong); and why you should never outsource teaching your kid to ride a bike.

Amy Shark doesn't know how ended up here. Before the ARIA Awards, the platinum records and sold-out tours, there were years of cover gigs, day jobs, rejected demos and wondering whether it was finally time to give up. She came within days of walking away from music altogether before one song, Adore, changed everything. In this episode of No Filter, Amy joins Kate Langbroek for a deeply personal conversation about the fifteen years it took to become an 'overnight success', why she believes the universe had other plans for her, and what fame actually looks like once you've achieved everything you thought you wanted. She talks about growing up on the Gold Coast with young parents, the grandmother who believed in her before anyone else did, falling in love with her husband and manager Shane, navigating marriage inside the music industry, and the burnout that left her feeling as though she had nothing left to give. Amy also reflects on finding joy in songwriting again, making her fourth album Soft Pop, and why she's finally learnt that success isn't about constantly chasing the next milestone. This is a conversation about perseverance, creativity, love, grief and what happens when the dream you've spent your whole life chasing finally comes true. Amy Shark's new album Soft Pop is out now.

This annual event has become a significant highlight for fans of comics, movies, and television, showcasing the latest and greatest in entertainment. The trailers they discuss include thrilling sneak peeks of upcoming superhero films, intriguing new series, and perhaps even some unexpected surprises that left the audience buzzing with excitement. Each trailer is dissected for its impact, visual effects, and storytelling potential, sparking lively debates among the hosts about what they are most looking forward to seeing on the big screen and small screen in the coming months.As the conversation progresses, the guys shift gears to talk about Joe finally embarking on his journey through the pages of William Gibson's groundbreaking novel, Neuromancer. This seminal work is often credited with popularizing the cyberpunk genre and has had a profound influence on both literature and film. Joe shares his initial thoughts and impressions, discussing the themes of artificial intelligence, virtual reality, and the intricacies of a dystopian future that the book explores. The other hosts chime in with their own experiences of reading Neuromancer, reminiscing about how it shaped their understanding of technology and its potential implications on society, as well as its relevance in today's digital age.The discussion then naturally evolves into a nostalgic recollection of the days when they would watch anime on the Sci-Fi Channel, a network that played a pivotal role in introducing many viewers to the world of Japanese animation. They fondly recall specific shows that aired during that time, the unique art styles, and the compelling narratives that captivated audiences. The guys share stories about their favorite series, memorable characters, and the impact that these shows had on their lives, igniting a passion for the genre that continues to this day. This leads to a broader conversation about the evolution of anime in Western culture, the growing popularity of conventions, and how accessibility to different forms of media has changed over the years. The episode closes with reflections on how these early experiences with anime and science fiction have shaped their current tastes and interests in the ever-expanding landscape of entertainment.Official Website: https://www.comesnaturallypodcast.comOfficial Merchandise: https://shop.spreadshirt.com/comes-naturally-podcast/iTunes: http://tinyurl.com/kqkgackFacebook: http://tinyurl.com/myovgm8Tumblr: http://tinyurl.com/m7a6mg9Twitter: @ComesNaturalPodYouTube: http://tiny.cc/5snxpy

Dinosaur bones have become one of the world's most expensive collector's items, with some selling for tens of millions of dollars at auction. A Tyrannosaurus rex fossil recently sold for $50 million, making it the most expensive dinosaur ever auctioned. Some celebrities, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, have their own private collections. So why are the ultra wealthy spending so much money on dinosaur bones, and what does it mean for science?We speak to BBC Climate and Science journalist Esme Stallard about why they have become so valuable, who is buying them, and why many scientists are concerned about private ownership. We also hear from Professor Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist at the University of Edinburgh and consultant on the Jurassic Park films, about why these ancient fossils matter and the growing debate over who should really own them.Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producer: Adam Chowdhury, William Lee Adams and Emma-Louise Amanshia Video producer: Baldeep Chahal Editor: Emily Horler
The primary focus of this podcast episode is the cinematic masterpiece "Gladiator," a film that has garnered significant acclaim for its storytelling and performances. We delve into the intricate narrative of a former Roman general who embarks on a quest for vengeance against a corrupt emperor, a tale that resonates with themes of honor, redemption, and the struggle for justice. Our discussion highlights the exceptional performances by Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix, as well as the directorial prowess of Ridley Scott, whose artistic vision elevates the film to an extraordinary level. Throughout the conversation, we explore the film's profound emotional depth, the significance of its score by Hans Zimmer, and the masterful construction of scenes that captivate the audience. Ultimately, we reaffirm our conviction that "Gladiator" stands as a monumental achievement in cinema, deserving of its place in the pantheon of great films.Visit Our Sponsor: https://dubby.gg10% Off Code: OURVERDICTSupport us:https://www.patreon.com/whatsourverdictEmail us:hosts@whatsourverdict.comFollow us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsourverdictTwitter: @whatsourverdictInstagram: @whatsourverdictYouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC-K_E-ofs3b85BnoU4R6liAVisit us:www.whatsourverdict.com
This week on Peanuts and Popcorn, we return from our summer break with a quick wrap‑up of the FIFA World Cup. Then we shift to Popcorn, where we break down two films we think deserve a spot on your watchlist. We start with Leo's suggestion, American Gangster (2007), starring Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe and directed by Ridley Scott. After that, we turn to Tom's selection, Fat City (1972), featuring Stacey Keach and Jeff Bridges under the direction of John Huston.Next Show's Films: • Tom's Pick: Grave of the Fireflies (1988)• Leo's Pick: Victory (1981)
Christian Pérez, actor venezolano radicado en Australia, participó este año en dos producciones cinematográficas: "Balls Up" y "The Get Out", esta última protagonizada por Russell Crowe. Antes de dedicarse a la actuación, se destacó en el fisicoculturismo, y en 2020 fue reconocido públicamente tras intervenir en un incidente de violencia en Gold Coast.
What's New to Netflix is alive and well, and we go full speed ahead into some rough terrain with the July 2026 movies and shows that Netflix has got coming out. Also, Russell Crowe portrays a boxer that falls on hard times during the Great Depression but has a comeback that takes America by storm in Cinderella Man from 2005. Then it's the remake of House on Haunted Hill from 1999, which may or may not be too twizzy for audiences that didn't grow up shoplifting nu-metal CDs from Best Buy. And we also talk about John Cena and Eric André's new Netflix movie, Little Brother, which somehow saved the formulaic buddy comedy for the foreseeable future. All of this plus Mr. Rogers, Mothra, Tom Brady, a backwards movie not being backwards, Emeril, two different Ticks, a house on the prairie that some would call little, The Hunger Games, and Will Ferrell as "The Hawk" in The Hawk. got a suggestion for the show?: whatsnewtonetflix@gmail.com
It's a new installment of the FTC Film Club, and we have found a film the boys are especially fired up to discuss. After a bit of banter about the new Steven Spielberg film Disclosure Day, Jared Wilson and Ronni Kurtz launch into a spirited discussion of the 2012 film adaptation of the musical Les Miserables. And Jared offers a theory on Russell Crowe's singing voice that he hopes will make you reconsider any criticism you have of this incredible movie.

Russell Crowe says the original “Gladiator” worked because it had a clear moral core: a man consumed by vengeance for his murdered wife and son, a journey he fought to protect on set by rejecting studio‑pushed sex scenes that would weaken Maximus' single‑minded purpose. He argues “Gladiator 2” failed at the box office, even allowing for inflation, because the sequel didn't understand why people loved the first film and “destroyed that moral centre,” trading a clear code and emotional spine for empty spectacle.
“The fock is going on here?” I go. Because – yeah, no – I've arrived home to find my wife, my four sons and my in-laws sitting in front of the TV watching, quite literally, a soccer match? My reaction is basically the same as it would be if I arrived home to find Sorcha in bed with Russell Crowe. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome back to Not A Bomb! — the podcast where we resurrect cinema's most infamous box office disasters and ask the burning question: is it a bomb?This week, the guys set sail for one of the most ambitious and accomplished films of the 21st century with Peter Weir's Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. Released in 2003, this sprawling naval epic follows Captain Jack Aubrey and the crew of HMS Surprise as they pursue a powerful French warship across the globe during the Napoleonic Wars. Despite earning critical acclaim, multiple Academy Award wins, and a passionate fanbase, the film never quite became the blockbuster franchise many expected. Over the years, however, Master and Commander has steadily grown in reputation, earning recognition as one of the finest historical adventures ever put to screen.But does the film deserve its status as a modern masterpiece? Troy and Brad dive into the incredible craftsmanship behind the production, from its obsessive attention to historical detail to its thunderous sea battles and unforgettable performances from Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany. The hosts also discuss why director Peter Weir remains one of cinema's most underappreciated filmmakers despite a career that includes classics like The Truman Show, Witness, and Picnic at Hanging Rock.Hoist the colors, secure the gun decks, and join the chase as Not A Bomb celebrates a film that proves blockbuster filmmaking can still be intelligent, immersive, and endlessly rewatchable.Want to help support the show?

There is no rush.If you need support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 (available 24/7) or visit lifeline.org.au—This week I sat down with Macario De Souza, known to most as Kid Mac, and this one really got me.Macario grew up in Maroubra, one of Australia's most iconic and tight-knit surf communities, and from a young age he was finding his way through a world that wasn't always easy. He opens up about the challenges he faced towards the end of his school life and how surfing and storytelling became his way through.Most people know Macario from Bra Boys, the landmark Australian surf documentary that put Maroubra on the map and introduced him to working alongside Russell Crowe. That film changed the trajectory of his life and sparked a career built on telling stories that matter.We also get into Fighting Fear, his deeply personal documentary that saw him confront his own mental health challenges head on. It's a film that took real courage to make, and Macario speaks about that journey with total honesty.But the heart of this conversation is his new film, In Pieces Together. The film tells the story of Blake Johnston's world record surf — and the story running alongside it about Blake's dad, his battle with mental health, and his death by suicide. It is one of the most important surf films ever made, and talking with Macario about why he felt compelled to tell this story was something I won't forget in a hurry.This one is for anyone who has ever lost someone, loved someone who is struggling, or believes that storytelling has the power to change lives.In this episode we cover:Growing up in Maroubra and the Bra Boys cultureThe challenges he faced at the end of his school lifeMaking Bra Boys and working with Russell CroweHow filmmaking became his path forwardFighting Fear and his own mental health journeyIn Pieces Together — Blake Johnston's world record surfBlake's dad, his mental health battle and his death by suicideWhy this film matters and the lives it could changeIf this episode brought something up for you:

Cathy and Todd discuss Gladiator, released in 2000 and directed by Ridley Scott, it stars Russell Crowe as Maximus, a Roman general betrayed by the Emperor’s son Commodus, who murders his own father Marcus Aurelius to seize power, then orders the execution of Maximus and his entire family. Sold into slavery and forced into the arena, Maximus fights his way back to Rome for one purpose: vengeance. With a box office of $466 million, five Academy Awards including Best Picture and Best Actor for Crowe, and a Hans Zimmer score that became one of the bestselling soundtracks of all time, the film didn’t just succeed, it reinvented an entire genre and inspired everything from HBO’s Rome to The Hunger Games. It’s filled with unforgettable lines like, “What we do in life echoes in eternity” and “Are you not entertained?”, and it happens to be one of Cathy’s all-time favorite movies.

Life comes at you fast. Apparently way faster after age 30. On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, the crew dives headfirst into the terrifying realization that June is basically here already and somehow we're halfway through the year. One minute you're sneaking into clubs with fake confidence and terrible decisions… the next minute you're googling “why do my knees sound like microwave popcorn?” Welcome to adulthood, baby.This daily comedy show gets philosophical for roughly six minutes before immediately derailing into Burt Reynolds chest hair appreciation, Sally Field drama, and the deeply important question of whether Barry Gibb secretly teaches funk magic at Hogwarts.Also in today's chaos:Ozzy Osbourne's family is building an AI avatar version of Ozzy that could eventually talk to fans forever. Totally normal. Definitely not dystopian at all.Taylor Swift sends signed guitars to an 8-year-old girl after a paper airplane request goes viral.Russell Crowe explains why autograph seekers need to calm the hell down.The gang debates the difference between old-school celebrity roasts and today's “who can get canceled first” format.Roxette announces a tour and suddenly everyone's emotionally sprinting back to the 80s.Yellowstone spin-offs continue multiplying faster than raccoons behind a dumpster.TV's most shocking character deaths get revisited, reopening emotional wounds nobody asked for.And yes… someone accidentally thought Barry Gibb was dead. HE IS NOT. The Bee Gee king remains alive, tan, moisturized, and presumably shirt-unbuttoned somewhere in Miami.There's also a surprisingly passionate discussion about The Brady Bunch Movie, Vincent Price deserving his own St. Louis street, and why Travis Kelce drinking beers at a basketball game somehow became national news.Basically this episode has everything: existential dread, celebrity gossip, nostalgic movie tangents, weird AI conversations, TV spoilers, and middle-aged panic wrapped into one beautiful disaster of a daily comedy show.If you love sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity chaos, and hearing grown adults argue passionately about Burt Reynolds and Hogwarts funk classes, congratulations — this daily comedy show was made specifically for your damaged brain chemistry.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Life hits hard. Pavement hits harder.On today's episode of The Rizzuto Show, Rizz suffers a catastrophic public wipeout outside the Wildwood post office after attempting the impossible: carrying multiple packages while existing over the age of 30. What starts as a simple errand instantly turns into a full public humiliation event featuring flying boxes, ripped jeans, one silent elderly witness, and the horrifying realization that falling in public no longer looks “funny” — it looks medically expensive. Honestly, this might be the most relatable thing this daily comedy show has ever discussed.Naturally, the crew immediately spirals into a deep conversation about aging, embarrassment recovery strategies, and the exact moment your body transitions from “athletic” to “fragile Home Depot lawn decoration.” Meanwhile, Rafe contributes his own emotional damage after stepping barefoot into dog poop TWICE in under 30 seconds. One mystery pile. One homemade disaster. Somehow bleach, Q-tips, and psychological trauma all become part of the story. This is what happens when a daily comedy show is powered entirely by caffeine, sarcasm, and questionable life choices.The chaos somehow escalates from there:Would you admit to clogging a gas station toilet during a road trip?If cartel money washes ashore… are you legally required to be honest?Is keeping accidental extra cash from a cashier technically stealing or just “winning?”Why do modern cars all look like Pixar characters with anxiety?And at what point does your neighborhood friend become a full HOA supervillain?Then the show pivots into celebrity chaos, nostalgia, and existential dread because apparently everyone realized June is already here and adulthood is basically one long speedrun toward knee pain and suspiciously loud joints. The crew debates Ozzy Osbourne AI avatars, Taylor Swift's viral kindness, Russell Crowe vs autograph seekers, and whether Barry Gibb secretly teaches funk magic at Hogwarts while moisturized somewhere in Miami. Completely normal topics for functioning adults.Also:Burt Reynolds chest hair appreciation becomes weirdly emotionalRoxette triggers an accidental 80s nostalgia spiralYellowstone spin-offs continue multiplying like raccoons behind a dumpsterTV's most shocking character deaths reopen old emotional woundsSomebody incorrectly declares Barry Gibb dead and immediately gets corrected by the roomAnd because society apparently enjoys suffering, the crew tackles the modern horror known as tipping culture. Why are frozen yogurt machines asking for 25% tips when YOU did literally everything except plug the machine into the wall? Is a $9 tip on a $600 steak dinner grounds for prison? Why do Costco employees reject tips like undercover federal agents? Nobody knows anymore. America feels tired.Chris Kerber joins the show to absolutely torch WalletHub's “Best Hockey Cities” rankings, the gang debates NHL expansion rumors, and hockey nicknames somehow sound like rejected mobster aliases from a low-budget casino movie.The episode also takes a heartfelt moment to honor listener Danielle following her tragic passing after injuries sustained during PointFest. The show sends love to her fiancé Jason, family, and friends during an incredibly difficult time.This episode has everything:public humiliation, celebrity gossip, hockey rage, AI weirdness, dog poop trauma, tipping arguments, nostalgic movie debates, existential panic, and middle-aged chaos wrapped into one beautiful disaster of a daily comedy show.If you enjoy sarcastic humor, weird news, celebrity fails, comedy podcast chaos, and hearing grown adults argue passionately about frozen yogurt economics and cartel ethics… welcome home.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.Blind North Chicago man sues Grayslake car dealership alleging they pulled ‘bait and switch' during new car purchaseFalkville votes to end 140-year alcohol ban by single voteNew AI pet translator claims it can understand dogs and catsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Hour 1: Mason opens up about how she went viral on social media. Spoiler alert: it was oversharing. People are worried about Justin Beiber… again. Is Ryan Reynolds distancing himself from Blake Lively? Jlo is in her single era. So is Mason. Is Sabrina Carpenter too short for fashion? It SNOWED in Tahoe. Vinnie is still on the hunt for the perfect deodorant. There was an explosion of a chemical tank in Washington State. “No more, we're FULL!” - Charlotte, NC. Plus, lazy gigs that pay a ton.
