Gary and Shannon open the show breaking down Taylor Swift's new album The Life of Showgirl and its viral track “Wood.” Shannon insists Gary's not the target demo, while Gary admits he's listening anyway to keep up with the zeitgeist.The conversation shifts to former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez, who's facing a level 5 felony after attacking a delivery driver, an incident allegedly caught on video. Then, they analyze a major court ruling blocking the federal deployment of National Guard troops and discuss the Supreme Court's new term, including its rejection of Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal and her legal team's push for presidential clemency. Finally, Gary and Shannon unpack the latest developments in the Gaza-Israel ceasefire talks and the Trump administration's ongoing push for peace in the Middle East.

That crazy cat-lady Taylor Swift has released yet another album and we have no choice but to listen to it (multiple times) and then get on the podcast and discuss what we think. (Spoiler: we love it, duh)

A chance meeting with Cristal (Gina Gershon), the Stardust's marquee dancer, and her powerful boyfriend, Zack (Kyle MacLachlan), brings Nomi one step closer to realizing her dream.

Showgirls stars Elizabeth Berkley as a Vegas dancer trying to move up from a seedy club to a glamorous hotel show. Paul Verhoeven's NC-17 movie was a notorious flop, but it is now considered a camp classic and a window into a moment of moral panic. Showgirls turns 30 this year, so today we're revisiting our conversation about the film.Follow Pop Culture Happy Hour on Letterboxd at letterboxd.com/nprpopcultureLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

"Showgirls" turns 30 this year, and while it was panned on release, it's since earned a reputation as a cult classic. Las Vegas film critic Josh Bell of Awesome Movie Year joins co-host Dayvid Figler for a wild ride through the glittery, gritty, and gloriously unhinged legacy of perhaps the most misunderstood Vegas film of all time. They debate whether it's genius satire or just a beautiful mess, unpack its connection to Las Vegas myth-making, and even give some love (and shade) to "The Last Showgirl" and "Leprechaun 3."

In this glitter-packed bonus episode, Danielle and Jackie are joined by their Gen Z honorary little sister Zoe for a fierce and fabulous game of Camp Trash™. They put queer-coded and nostalgic faves like Showgirls, Spice World, and Romeo + Juliet on trial to decide: are they cult classics worthy of worship, or camp trash best left in the Blockbuster bargain bin? Expect chaotic debates, heartfelt nostalgia, and exactly one hot take that might get the internet mad (sorry, Josie and the Pussycats).

Seit fast 20 Jahren steht Taylor Swift auf der Bühne und erlaubt ihren Fans auch den ein oder anderen Blick hinter die Kulissen des Showgirls "Taylor Swift". In 20 Jahren hat Taylor schon jede Menge Showgirl Momente für die Ewigkeit geschaffen. Jeder Moment half Taylor dabei, der Superstar zu werden, der sie jetzt ist. Dazu gehören Höhen und Tiefen, mutige Experimente und verrückte Zeiten. Wir stellen euch in dieser Folge die besten Showgirl Momente aus elf Eras zusammen.

We're here to provide a little distraction -- and a positive online community during these weird times -- with the latest episode of our Breakfast All Day podcast. Our first movie isn't exactly escapist fun, though: "The Long Walk," which is one of the better Stephen King adaptations. It's beautifully written and acted but also harrowing to watch, especially now. This may not be the best week to see people getting shot in the head, but this movie is really good otherwise. In theaters. Next up, it's "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," the painfully unfunny sequel to the 1984 comedy classic "This Is Spinal Tap." It would be impossible to match the brilliance of a movie that invented an entire genre, but this one really doesn't. Rob Reiner, Michael McKean, Christopher Guest and Harry Shearer are all back, along with some major celebrity cameos. In theaters. If you're looking for elegant pleasures, we have "Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale." Everyone's lives are in flux in 1930s England, but they look great doing it. And despite their financial woes, they find time to get gussied up for the horse races at Ascot. This tidies up all the stories in satisfying fashion. In theaters. Finally, a lengthy Movie News LIVE!: Early reactions to "One Battle After Another," Emmy Awards on Sunday, "Big Little Lies" season 3 and much more. We tried to keep the politics to a minimum but dipped into some entertainment-adjacent items toward the end. Join us every Friday at Noon Pacific. Thanks for all you do for our community!

30 years on, the tide is turning for Showgirls.Showgirls is remembered for its outlandish dialogue, the over-the-top performances, culminating in controversy, cult status, and unapologetic campiness. It's widely regarded as a mess, a critical and commercial flop, and poor Elizabeth Berkley took the brunt of the blame.Showgirls is polarizing, for many it's a guilty pleasure drenched in excess, but for others, it's a train wreck that's hard to look away from. This movie is no financial flop though, in fact it's one of MGM's most lucrative of all time. Sex sells. Nomi Malone hitchhikes her way to Las Vegas, dreaming of stardom and glory in the world of top tier showgirls. Writer Joe Eszterhas dreamed of a script that contained the real life stories of the women who worked in Vegas clubs, but director Paul Verhoeven wanted a not-so-subtle commentary on the darker side of fame and ambition in show business.It's looking at the American dream in a dark, twisted mirror, showing the misogynistic rot of show business, the dark reality of a patriarchal society that on the surface claims to love, idolise and promote women, it actually exploits and degrades women in the name of entertainment. Just like what happened to Elizabeth Berkley.I would love to hear your thoughts on Showgirls !Verbal Diorama is now an award-winning podcast!

Taylor Swift has mastered the art of album anticipation and has created another P.R. juggernaut with her next release, “The Life of a Showgirl.” It got us wondering what other albums were highly anticipated over the years, from the Beatles' “Sgt.

Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 109 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by AwardsWatch contributor Trace Sauveur discuss the latest film in their Paul Verhoeven series, Starship Troopers (1997). After making a cult classic with Showgirls, Verhoeven took to space to go back to his political, social satire with an adaptation of Robert A. Heinlein's novel, Starship Troopers. The director readapted the book heavily, not liking the politics of the book, making his film more aware that these characters were fascists in a fascist country that didn't know that they are fascists. By using this tool, he made a masterpiece grilling the military industrial complex, and our countries obsession with concurring other nations. Ryan, Jay, and Trace break down their thoughts on the film, their thoughts on the films politics, the casting in the film, the visual effects that have aged well and are horrific, the spin-off sequels, how relevant the film is in the modern era, and how clever Verhoeven is able to mix the horror of war with his usual, twisted humor found in his films. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 2h08m. The guys will be back next week to continue their series on the films of Paul Verhoeven with a review of his film, Hollow Man. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it.

Does it get any more '80s than Flashdance? Luminous Jennifer Beals is a welder by day who dances at a bar by night, but must conquer imposter syndrome to achieve her ballerina dreams. It's sort of a music video-esque Disney musical crossed with an inspirational sports drama (a la Rocky or Rudy), yet somehow Javi and Paul had never seen it, much to Producer Brad's amusement. Join them in a world made of steel, made of stone (aka Pittsburgh) as they bask in the glory of Giorgio Morodor's memorable music, wrestle with the film's male-gaze-fantasy-meets-aspirational-female-empowerment dichotomy, and get pleasantly sucker-punched by this surprisingly sweet fairy tale about having faith in oneself (and dancing like you've never danced before). And did we mention it's from the future director of Fatal Attraction, future screenwriter of Basic Instinct (and Showgirls), and action impresario Jerry Bruckheimer? (And is that Cynthia Rhodes playing her same character from Staying Alive?)
