The average estimated words-per-minute in a feature film is 90; His Girl Friday (1940) clocks in at 240. And yet the fast dialogue is only one of its many fascinations.

It's as cynical as Network yet as joyful as Singin' in the Rain and skewers the news-tainment complex with an affection for its perpetrators. Join us for an appreciation for one of the best.

In one of the stranger twists of fate, Mike slaps Jay with the exact movie Jay had been planning to assign next: the sun-bleached slab of questionable ‘80s excess known as Blame It on Rio. The infamous 1984 comedy stars Michael Caine and was directed by Stanley Donen, yes, the very same Stanley Donen who gave us Singin' in the Rain. This time, however, decorum is tossed aside in favor of ribald “laughs” and some deeply uncomfortable subject matter. Did Jay recoil at the film's themes and its eyebrow-raising approach to teen sexuality, or is there some strange middle ground where material like this can be examined without completely torching the conversation? The guys dig into it during the main review, and afterward count down their Bottom Five Black Sheep, misfires from Grade-A filmmakers whose D-list efforts quietly lurk in the shadows of otherwise celebrated careers. The guys next play a heart-felt game of Kick Two, Pick Two honoring Catherine O'Hara, the eccentric and endlessly hilarious star of film and television who passed away in late January. Finally, Jay shifts the blame away from Rio and places it squarely onto Mike, unveiling his next punishment: yet another cinematic misadventure dredged from the bottomless pit this podcast proudly calls home.

Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s. Before he was “Singin’ Sam,” Harry Frankel performed in blackface, an unfortunate part of his life as an entertainer and one I hope he would regret. Fortunately for us, he took on the persona of “Singin’ Sam” and you’ll hear three of his recordings as “Singin’ Sam” in the first segment of this week’s edition of Rapidly Rotating Records. Irene Beasley and Clayton McMichen will also have birthday segments on the show. We’ll also enjoy some delicious soup and tell you all about the Dunning-Kruger Effect. There's lots of great music and interesting information so set aside an hour with your favorite beverage and prepare to be transported back to a different–and we think better–musical era.

Es ist wieder soweit und wir besprechen einen 10er Block an IDMb Filmen. Heute haben wir mit "Come and See" und "Dr. Strangelove" zwei Kriegsfilme die unterschiedlicher nicht sein könnten. "Singin in the Rain" und "3 Idiots" bilden den musikalischen Teil diese Blocks und mit "Prinzessin Mononoke" haben wir auch wieder einen Animationsfilm im Angebot. "Joker" und "American Beauty" bieten Raum für eine grosse Disskussion und "Capernaum" hat uns beide fertig gemacht. "Breaveheart" und "Once upon a time in America" sind wohl die Filme die wir am ehesten aus diesem Block entfernt hätten. Warum das alles so ist und was wir von den Filmen halten, erfahrt ihr in dieser Folge. Viel Spass.

Send us a textLouis Gaunt has solidified his reputation as one of the most charismatic and technically gifted triple-threat performers in the musical theatre today. After earning a Stage Debut Award for his breakout performance as Will Parker in Oklahoma!, he's earned further acclaim for his roles as Bert in Mary Poppins and more recently in the role of Tommy in Brigadoon. His latest role sees him returning to the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester to play Don Lockwood in a five star rated production of Singin in the Rain. The show also sees him reuniting with Danny Collins and Carly Mercedes Dyer who he worked with on Sweet Charity at Nottingham Playhouse. In this brand new interview with Louis Gaunt, we reflect on his recent successes as one of the industry's most exciting leading men. Here, Louis provides candid insights into the physical rigors of performing in Singin in the Rain —including the nightly challenge of performing the iconic title number under 14,000 litres of water—and the artistic responsibility of bringing the Golden Age of Hollywood to a modern audience. Since the production opened in Manchester, his performance has been hailed by critics and audiences as a masterclass in showmanship. We also talk about why this era of musical continues to resonate with audiences and what keeps drawing him to pieces like Brigadoon and Gypsy which demand so much him physically.Singin in the Rain runs at Royal Exchange Theatre, Manchester until 25 January 2026.

Our celebration of Musical Month continues this week on @wedrinkandwewatchthings with what many consider to be the greatest movie musical of all time: the 1952 masterpiece, "Singin' in the Rain." It's bright, it's athletic, and it's a total joy-bomb from start to finish. Pour yourself a refreshing cocktail and get ready for a conversation about a film that is essentially a love letter to the magic of movies.This week, we are revisiting the incredible transition from silent films to "talkies" and how this movie captures that chaotic, hilarious era of Hollywood history. We'll be highlighting the sheer physical genius of Gene Kelly, the breakout charm of a young Debbie Reynolds, and the gravity-defying comedy of Donald O'Connor. We also spend some time marveling at Jean Hagen's brilliant comedic turn as the unforgettable Lina Lamont - whose voice was definitely not made for the microphone. It's a discussion about technical innovation, the grueling work behind those "effortless" dance numbers, and why this film's optimism still feels so infectious decades later.If you love the Golden Age of Hollywood, world-class choreography, or just want to hear us gush about a movie that is practically perfect in every way, this is the episode for you. We're blending our deep respect for the craft with our usual casual banter, making this a high-energy highlight of our Musical Month lineup, including a guest star. Just try to listen without humming along!This episode VIDEO is live on YouTube AND Spotify!Follow us on Instagram and TikTok to get ep sneak peaks and find out what's coming next.

EPISODE 117 - “STEVE AND NAN DISCUSS: MOVIES ABOUT MOVIES” - 12/08/25 In the latest episode of From Beneath the Hollywood Sign, we pull back the curtain on the cinematic world of making movies about… making movies. We dive deep into the movies that reveal what really happens behind the scenes in Tinseltown—sometimes with affection, sometimes as a cautionary tale to be careful what you wish for. Movies like Sullivan's Travels (1941), Singin' in the Rain (1952), and Sunset Boulevard (1950), all offer a fascinating look at the machinations that go into making films. This week, we'll be discussing six lesser known moves that five us a peak behind the scenes and show us very different sides of the not-always-so-glamorous ways that Hollywood works. Across genres and generations, these films offer an insider's view not just of how Hollywood works, but of the dreams, delusions, and dramas that make moviemaking an art form all its own.

Best Pick with John Dorney, Jessica Regan and Tom Salinsky Episode 324: Singin' in the Rain Released 26 November 2025 For this episode, we watched the 1952 MGM musical Singin' in the Rain, directed by Stanley Donen and Gene Kelly who also starred alongside Donald O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds and Jean Hagen. Arthur Freed produced and wrote most of the songs alongside composer Nacio Herb Brown. Slightly overshadowed at the time by the enormous commercial and critical success of An American in Paris the year before, this movie is now widely regarded as the absolute pinnacle of the golden age of Hollywood musicals. And who are we to disagree?

fWotD Episode 3097: How You Get the Girl Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Monday, 27 October 2025, is How You Get the Girl."How You Get the Girl" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift from her fifth studio album, 1989 (2014). She wrote it with its producers, Max Martin and Shellback. An electropop and bubblegum pop song, "How You Get the Girl" is a ballad that features acoustic guitar strums and a heavy disco beat. The lyrics find Swift telling a man how to win his ex-girlfriend back after their breakup. Some music critics praised the song as catchy and energetic; they particularly highlighted the chorus and how the track combines acoustic and electronic elements. Less enthusiastic reviews considered the production generic and the lyrics lightweight. "How You Get the Girl" charted on the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart in the United States and on the Canadian Hot 100 chart in Canada. It received certifications in Australia, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Swift included "How You Get the Girl" in the set list of the 1989 World Tour (2015), with choreography that evoked the musical film Singin' in the Rain (1952). She performed it on some dates of her later tours, the Reputation Stadium Tour (2018) and the Eras Tour (2023–2024). The track was used in a Diet Coke advertisement prior to its release.Following a 2019 dispute regarding the ownership of her back catalog, Swift re-recorded the song as "How You Get the Girl (Taylor's Version)" for her fourth re-recorded album, 1989 (Taylor's Version) (2023). She produced the new version with Christopher Rowe. Music critics believed that the re-recording had a vibrant sound and an enhanced production quality. The track reached number 29 on the Billboard Global 200 chart and the top 40 on the national charts of Canada, New Zealand, and the United States.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:14 UTC on Monday, 27 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see How You Get the Girl 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 Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Joanna.
This episode of Across The Margin : The Podcast features an interview with singer-songwriter Jenna Nicholls. Hailing from the small town of Irwin, PA near Pittsburgh, after college Jenna set her sights east to test her wings as a songwriter and performer. Initially trying Boston, she ultimately gravitated to the creative hotbed of Manhattan's Lower East Side forging lasting friendships with other like-minded artists and musicians. Jenna made three albums on her own dime: Curled Up Toes in Red Mary Janes, The Blooming Hour, and Radio Parade. The albums revealed a restless muse and a theme that would be a constant for Nicholls: a love of vintage music – anything from classic music films like “Singin' in the Rain” to Bessie Smith. Her latest album — The Commuter — is the focus of this episode. The title of Jenna Nicholls' new album The Commuter is fitting in every sense — the story of a journey both musical and personal. The recording signals a departure and new beginnings: a new producer (multiple Grammy winner Larry Campbell), a new record label (Hudson Valley based Royal Potato Family), a lusher sound with inventive, fleshed-out arrangements, and an astoundingly wide-ranging collection of original songs. The constant: Jenna's unique ability to transport the listener to a different place and time with her writing and inspired singing. The Commuter displays Jenna's melodic and lyrical gifts in full flower. It's a cinematic trip that takes the listener to 1930's Parisian cafés, New Orleans juke joints, and beyond. It is an album that communicates the excitement of venturing forth and the reassurance of returning home to an abiding love. Learn all about it and more in this episode. Hosted on Acast.

Daily Show correspondent Jordan Klepper joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk about raising his two-and-a-half-year-old son, Witt, while juggling a career built on improv, political satire, and late-night comedy. Klepper recalls misjudging the mattress size for his son's bunk bed—leaving a four-inch gap that could double as future deposition material—and justifying his “safety plan” with a beanbag chair under the danger zone. He rails against the whiplash speed of kids' TV, admitting Bluey gets a pass while Gabby's Dollhouse and Cocomelon make him wince, then describes how YouTube ballet performances and Singin' in the Rain became his family's slower-paced alternative. Klepper revisits his Kalamazoo math-nerd roots, including the actuarial scientist who tried to sell him on predicting death for insurance companies, before he pivoted to improv and eventually landed at The Daily Show. Now, he applies his correspondent's interrogative style to parenting—only to be told by his wife to stop cross-examining their toddler at the dinner table. From Amazon-era instant gratification to his son's invented sneakers-with-springs-and-wheels, Klepper balances surreal political interviews with the even trickier task of convincing Witt to wear a jacket. The episode ends with a new father–son bit: shouting “Dan!” back and forth, lifted from an Alan Partridge sketch that Witt now proudly recycles as their private running gag.
The final Episode is up! Join us as we literally make our way to Brev's front door while discussing what is considered the top 5 movies that AFI calls the best and they are: Singin' in the Rain Raging Bull Casablanca The Godfather Citizen Kane Be sure to stick around after that as both Brev and Tyler talk about what movies should be on that list. Thanks so much for taking the journey with us and enjoy!
The guys from Dawgman.com - Kim Grinolds, Chris Fetters, and Scott Eklund - gathered Friday morning to gab a bit during this BYE weekend and tie up some loose ends after Washington's 70-10 dismantling of UC Davis. After some scheduling talk and the normal complaints from west coasters about late night starts and Scott's master plan for how conference realignment will all shake out within a decade (he promises this will definitely all happen), Kim gets Chris's and Scott's take on some things that came out of the UC Davis win since he wasn't able to make it due to car troubles. Talk moved to the improvement of the offensive line, including the things that have helped this year's line settle in a lot quicker compared to last season, as well as how Jedd Fisch's high school recruiting philosophy has already started to pay off, especially along the OL. After a quick break Kim asks Scott to talk about John Mills and his recruitment to Washington. Scott happened to be at UW the day Mills was offered a scholarship by the previous staff, and he lays out Mills' recruitment from when he originally committed to Texas, to Washington keeping on him due to his Montlake family ties, to his eventual flip to the Huskies. Kim asks Chris whether or not Washington's first BYE week comes at a good time. Believe it or not, they had differing opinions on this topic. And then Scott gives a recruiting update that eventually wound its way toward the 2027 recruiting class and whether or not he's surprised the Huskies don't have any public commitments for that class so far.
