Iran, Israel & the CIA: When “Conspiracy” Starts Sounding Plausible | The Karel Show The word conspiracy gets thrown around easily — but sometimes the real-world facts are disturbing enough on their own. As protests erupt in Iran, the political fallout gives Donald Trump fresh justification to escalate tensions. The question becomes: who benefits if conflict expands? Israel? The United States? Powerful interests that thrive on instability? Karel examines why so many people are now willing to believe scenarios that once felt unthinkable — and what it says about the era we're living in. Meanwhile, the Senate makes a stunning move that effectively gives Trump wide latitude in Venezuela, raising serious questions about power, resources, and accountability — and why so few seem to be paying attention. Also in this episode: • Why the facts are often scarier than conspiracy theories • Why Karel is skeptical of CBS News' reporting on the alleged “internal bleeding” of an ICE officer • Voting season for the SAG Awards and Dorian Awards — and why this year's film slate feels oddly underwhelming The Karel Show delivers thoughtful, unfiltered commentary on global politics, media narratives, and culture — without the shouting or fear-bait.

Through Corymore Productions, a company that she co-owned with her husband Peter Shaw, Lansbury assumed ownership of the series and was its executive producer during its final four seasons. She also moved into voice work, contributing to animated films like Beauty and the Beast (1991) and Anastasia (1997). In the 21st century, she toured in several theatrical productions and appeared in family films such as Nanny McPhee (2005) and Mary Poppins Returns (2018).Among Lansbury's numerous accolades were six Tony Awards (including a Lifetime Achievement Award), six Golden Globe Awards, two honorary BAFTA Awards, a Laurence Olivier Award, an honorary SAG Award, and the Academy Honorary Award; in addition to nominations for three Academy Awards, eighteen Primetime Emmy Awards, and a Grammy Award.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:24 UTC on Thursday, 16 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Angela Lansbury on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Joanna.

Esri Ireland, the market leader in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), has announced that broadband provider Fibrus has won a Special Achievement in GIS Award (SAG) at Esri's annual User Conference in San Diego. Fibrus was recognised for its application of Esri's ArcGIS technology to accelerate the delivery of next-generation fibre broadband to homes and businesses across Northern Ireland and Cumbria. The technology was implemented across its government backed infrastructure rollouts, including the recently completed Project Stratum in Northern Ireland and Project Gigabit in Cumbria Esri's User Conference is the world's largest GIS conference, with over 18,000 attendees. The prestigious SAG Awards celebrate organisations worldwide who have gone above and beyond in their innovative applications of Esri's technology. Using this technology, Fibrus has created streamlined and collaborative processes that have resulted in cost savings of up to €5.8 million on the rollout of fibre networks. It was selected from over 700,000 eligible customers globally. The company needed to establish more efficient and integrated digital processes for collecting, viewing, and sharing information. Esri's digital mapping technology is enabling it to control costs, scale up rapidly, achieve ambitious project milestones, and streamline processes throughout the entire lifecycle of planning, building, and maintaining the fibre networks. Real-time access to data via dedicated dashboards, wherever employees are working, is improving data accuracy and productivity for the business. To date, Fibrus has laid more than 25,000 kilometres of fibre, reaching over 440,000 homes across Northern Ireland and Cumbria, with plans for further expansion. The Esri solution is saving 500 hours per week across Fibrus, its contractors and subcontractors, due to the automation of previously manual processes. The ArcGIS-based processes initially developed for Project Stratum have subsequently been deployed across all of Fibrus' other public sector and commercial projects. Philip McLaughlin, Client Manager, Esri Ireland, said: "We are delighted to present Fibrus with this award, in recognition of its innovative application of Esri's technology. Fibrus is transforming digital infrastructure across Northern Ireland and Cumbria and its incredible work to date is a compelling example of the power of ArcGIS. This award is a testament to the dedication and determination of their entire team." Riain Garcia, Senior Manager, GIS at Fibrus, said: "We are immensely proud to receive this prestigious award. From the outset, we recognised that the scale of Project Stratum demanded innovative digital solutions. With Esri's technology, we were able to scale effectively, drive innovation, and surpass our targets. Looking ahead, we are excited to continue advancing our digital mapping capabilities across a wide range of projects and industries." See more stories here.

In this episode of Identified, Nabil Ayers sits down with David Cross—Emmy-winning comedian, writer, and actor, best known for Mr. Show with Bob and David, Arrested Development, and The Ben Stiller Show. Over the course of his career, David has earned multiple Emmy and Grammy nominations and shared three SAG Award nominations for Outstanding Ensemble in a Comedy Series. Behind his sharp wit and cultural commentary lies a turbulent upbringing: frequent evictions, extreme poverty, a volatile father who vanished, and a mother doing everything she could to stay afloat. David recounts how those early years shaped him—not just as a comic, but as a person still reckoning with identity, responsibility, and what it means to create a different life for your own child. They explore themes of Jewish identity, inherited trauma, the gradual disconnection from his British-Jewish extended family, and the firm decision to cut off contact with his father—despite living in the same city for over 20 years. Now a father himself, David reflects on the gravity of being present, the legacy of emotional absence, and the quiet work of choosing a better path than the one you came from. Guest: David Cross. Host: Nabil Ayers. Executive Producer: Kieron Banerji. Identified is produced and distributed by Palm Tree Island.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if the voice guiding blind audiences through your favorite show was never credited? Or never even acknowledged? In part two of her conversation with Roy Samuelson, Bridget asks more insightful questions about the unseen artistry of Audio Description (AD). From the SAG Awards adding AD to both screeners and the live broadcast, to Netflix requiring crediting AD for performers as well as writers, this episode reveals how a behind-the-scenes craft is becoming a movement. Roy shares the origin of the ADNA, the push to get AD talent recognized by the Television Academy, and why AD is more than narration: it's performance, precision, and presence. They explore the rise of blind professionals in media, the power of proper tools and coaching, and the industry's slow but thrilling shift toward honoring every voice in the room. This is the story of inclusion done right. And it's just getting started. Roy's book is available at roysamuelson.com/book

Tables turned! Bridget Melton sat in the host chair for The ADNA Podcast, grilling me about my new book A Voice Actor's Guide to Audio Description Performance. We dug into privilege, allyship, and why I open the book by addressing the awkward-but-important question: “Why listen to a sighted guy talk about AD?” Bridget appreciated that the book stays laser-focused on performance for film and TV, without wandering into every other AD niche, and we explored how performers and writers can “salsa dance” between script and delivery to keep blind audiences immersed, even when the words are limited. I shared why access to visuals matters for performance, how production ownership of AD could change everything, and the surprising ripple effects of SAG Awards requiring AD on screeners. From deft “dialogue dodging” to scene-shift signaling, from the dream of live, in-production AD collaboration to the reality of working in silos, we covered the craft, the advocacy, and the small-but-mighty ways performers can elevate the work. Bridget's thoughtful questions brought out the heart of why I do this, and why better AD is access as well as honoring the story. Bridget was one of the first to ask to interview me about my book, A Voice Actor's Guide To Audio Description Performance. Follow her at BridgetMelton.com

“I would encourage you, as I do if you're an actor, to know your own equipment, know your own psychology, and use the great teachers that are synthesized in my favorite teacher's book, Moss, who I studied with later. There is a book called Intent to Live that distills down Uta Hagen, Stella Adler, Bobby Lewis, and Stanislavski. The great teachers at the Group Theatre believed that the method needed to be altered to be constructive rather than destructive to artists.David Milch's mind is so singular because he uses language in a way that defines character. That's what all good writers do: use language to get to the heart of something. He would use malapropisms to make up words, and Milch loved playing with that. As someone who played the love interest of such a unique character as Andy Sipowicz, I found it fascinating.Through Sylvia and David Milch's understanding, his wife humanized him. Sipowicz was portrayed as an addict, a very flawed human who had many addictions. David Milch is now suffering from Alzheimer's, so we won't get his words again. However, the words that he has to offer are timeless because he studied Robert Penn Warren and had many mentors throughout his vast literary education. That is key. I love speaking Noël Coward's words. As a bon vivant, he wrote musically, to charm us and amuse us. So going and reading Noël Coward is important for actors to learn those cadences and the musicality of a certain era. Of course, Shakespeare comes to mind. I also think of the female playwrights who delight me now, whether it's Caryl Churchill. She has that singular mind and plays with gender so well, challenging gender norms. Seeing ‘Cloud Nine' when I was in college blew my mind open because men were playing women and women were playing men. Of course, Shakespeare was doing it too, but her work felt more intimate; it was in a small theater. That's another thing I encourage actors and audiences to do: go see things in small theaters. See it up close because that will excite you and help you learn the craft.”Sharon Lawrence is an acclaimed actress best known for her Emmy-nominated, SAG Award-winning role as ADA Sylvia Costas on NYPD Blue. She has delivered memorable performances in Desperate Housewives, Monk, Law & Order: SVU, Criminal Minds, Shameless, and Queen Sugar. On stage, she's earned praise for roles in The Shot (a one-woman play about the owner/publisher of the Washington Post, Katharine Graham), Orson's Shadow, and A Song at Twilight. Shestarred in Broadway revivals of Cabaret, Chicago, and Fiddler on the Roof. Her recent work includes the neo-Western series Joe Pickett, opposite Michael Dorman, and the films Solace with Anthony Hopkins and The Bridge Partner.

That's what all good writers do: use language to get to the heart of something. He would use malapropisms to make up words, and Milch loved playing with that. As someone who played the love interest of such a unique character as Andy Sipowicz, I found it fascinating.Through Sylvia and David Milch's understanding, his wife humanized him. Sipowicz was portrayed as an addict, a very flawed human who had many addictions. David Milch is now suffering from Alzheimer's, so we won't get his words again. However, the words that he has to offer are timeless because he studied Robert Penn Warren and had many mentors throughout his vast literary education. That is key. I love speaking Noël Coward's words. As a bon vivant, he wrote musically, to charm us and amuse us. So going and reading Noël Coward is important for actors to learn those cadences and the musicality of a certain era. Of course, Shakespeare comes to mind. I also think of the female playwrights who delight me now, whether it's Caryl Churchill. She has that singular mind and plays with gender so well, challenging gender norms. Seeing ‘Cloud Nine' when I was in college blew my mind open because men were playing women and women were playing men. Of course, Shakespeare was doing it too, but her work felt more intimate; it was in a small theater. That's another thing I encourage actors and audiences to do: go see things in small theaters. See it up close because that will excite you and help you learn the craft.”Sharon Lawrence is an acclaimed actress best known for her Emmy-nominated, SAG Award-winning role as ADA Sylvia Costas on NYPD Blue.

“That transformation was key to my next step as an artist, to knowing that's what acting is. It isn't just posing; it isn't just being a version of yourself in a way that was free. Performing wasn't just performing; it was transforming. I think that artists find that in many different ways, and as actors, there are many ways into that.I would encourage you, as I do if you're an actor, to know your own equipment, know your own psychology, and use the great teachers that are synthesized in my favorite teacher's book, Moss, who I studied with later.
