Kate Flannery and Oscar Nuñez had a mini "Office" reunion on last night's season finale of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" and went ALL THE WAY! (You'd know them as Meredith and Oscar on the show.) They even called up Brian Baumgartner (Kevin) for their "Phone-a-Friend" lifeline. As for the million-dollar question? "The word 'planet' comes from an ancient Greek word that literally means what?" Their options were "powerful," "immortal," "stranger," and "wanderer" . . . the answer being "wanderer". Kate and Oscar will be splitting their winnings between Planned Parenthood and a Philadelphia-based food bank called Philabundance. Fresh off Coachella comes Stagecoach!

She'll appear on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on October 6, just three days after her album release and one day after fiancé Travis Kelce's birthday. Fallon teased the appearance in a cryptic roulette-themed post landing on Swift's lucky number, 13. This marks Taylor's seventh Tonight Show stop, alongside guests Keri Russell and a performance from The Format.Queen Eyeing Vegas Sphere ResidencyBrian May says Queen is seriously considering a Las Vegas Sphere residency after seeing the Eagles perform there. He told Rolling Stone, “The kind of show we could put on would be absolutely stupendous.” While May admits he's weary of traditional touring after 50 years, the Sphere could give the band a spectacular new stage without the grind of life on the road. Katie Couric pokes fun at Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle ad in a new PSA for colon cancer screenings. The clip opens to a close-up of Katie wearing a jean jacket, and quickly pans out to show she's wearing a hospital gown underneath, and she's on a gurney getting ready for a colonoscopy. She tells the camera, quote, "Speaking of genes. Did you know that the majority of people who develop colon cancer are not genetically predisposed to the disease? That's why doctors recommend everyone 45 and older get checked." Katie told "People" magazine, quote, "That ad showed how pop culture and a pair of jeans could really shape the cultural conversation, it was everywhere. It was a moment in time, and we thought, 'Why don't we ride that horse a little bit longer and have some fun with it?'" It'sbeen 25 years since Katie became the first person in history to broadcast a colonoscopy on national TV. She lost her husband to colon cancer in 1998. He was only 42. One of the most famous homes in American history is opening its doors to the public for the first time ever. The "Brady Bunch" house in North Hollywood will be accessible to fans on November 7th, 8th, and 9th. And while bookings are sold out, you can register to be on a waitlist, or be notified if additional dates become available. When the show was in production back in the day, the house was only used for EXTERIOR shots. The inside of the Brady home was created on a soundstage, and the inside of the actual house looked nothing like it. But HGTV bought the house in 2018, and renovated it so that it DOES match the house from the show. And of course, they recorded it for a series called "A Very Brady Renovation". Alyssa Milano, now 52, announced on Instagram that she underwent surgery to remove her breast implants—calling it a step toward reclaiming her body. She wrote that she's letting go of “false narratives” and a body she felt was “sexualized” and “abused.” Page Six+2People.com+2Milano said she once believed implants were essential to being attractive, loved, or successful—but now emphasizes that her worth doesn't depend on them. People.com+2The Cut+2 She also expressed hope that her 11-year-old daughter will be spared similar pressure. Page Six+1She made clear this was her personal decision and not a judgment on others who choose differently. People.com+2The Cut+2 After the procedure, she posted she's resting comfortably and thanked fans for their support. Sacha Baron Cohen, 53, has been spotted on a dinner date with 27-year-old OnlyFans creator Hannah Palmer, just months after finalizing his $75 million divorce from Isla Fisher. Page SixThe pair were seen leaving the restaurant separately before getting into the same Cadillac Escalade. Page Six+1Sources say they first met at Taika Waititi's 50th birthday party in Ibiza, with Rita Ora reportedly introducing them. Although the age gap raised eyebrows, insiders say they “seemed to be getting on really well.” Page Six+1Cohen and Fisher married in 2010, share three children, and announced their split in 2024 before finalizing the divorce this past June. Action legend Chuck Norris, now 85, marked his birthday by hiking Lassen Peak in Northern California—a strenuous trail rising to 10,457 feet. The round-trip journey spans about 5 miles and climbs 2,000 feet, often taking 4 to 5 hours to complete. Outside OnlineOn Instagram, Norris reflected on the trail's long recovery since the 2021 Dixie Fire, saying while the damage is heartbreaking, “the park's beauty still shines through.” Outside Online+2Active NorCal+2 He also credited his wife for introducing him to the region's natural splendor. It's official: HBO Max wants to traumatize your children. What other reason could there be for them to produce a brand new, animated version of "Charlotte's Web", one of the greatest children's stories ever told . . . until it becomes the most heart-wrenchingly brutal story in the history of mankind? This one is a limited series, told in three parts, which will all be released on Thursday, October 2nd. It stars Amy Adams as Charlotte, Elijah Wood as Wilbur the pig, and Jean Smart as the narrator. The voice cast also includes Cynthia Erivo, Randall Park, and Rosario Dawson. HBO Max released a clip yesterday of a scene between Charlotte and the young version of Wilbur, voiced by Griffin Robert Faulkner. Comedy legend Bill Burr is in talks to join production of The Social Network Part II, a follow-up to the 2010 Mark Zuckerberg biopic. William Shatner is reassuring everyone on social media that he is doing well after he was rushed to the hospital for a medical emergency Wednesday.

Greg has been itching to talk about the new Deftones album, but two artists passed this week so we're getting a thoughtful Three for Thursday. He kicks off with a track from the new Deftones album, Private Music, a great listen if you like anything they've ever done. Tomas Lindberg, singer for the Swedish metal band At the Gates, died of cancer at the age of 52. We also lost prolific Brazilian multi-instrumentalist and composer Hermeto Pascoal at the age of 89. Miles Davis once called him “one of the most important musicians on the planet.”Songs: Deftones - “Milk of the Madonna”At the Gates - “Cold”Hermeto Pascoal - “Mixing Pot (Tacho)”Jay has a new game! Using RadioGarden, Jay selects a random station from any part of the world and contestants must guess the city and country that they're hearing. The closest guess gets a point, a correct guess gets two points. Let's play Radio Guesser!Song: J.D. Crowe & The New South - “Old Home Place”Nick fills us in on some news for the week. Miles Davis's estate sells his catalog ahead of what would have been his 100th birthday. Morrissey would very much like someone to buy The Smiths catalog so he doesn't have to talk to his former band members ever again. Neil Young is getting sued, and D4vd is in some very hot water.Song: Spilly Cave - “Ice Klone”

Let's Chat!A rotary phone rings in a frozen forest. A spiral pulses red against cement. A mirror fractures, showing not one reflection but dozens—none matching the face of the man who stands before it.In this landmark tenth episode of the Gentleman's Journey podcast, we descend into the heart of the Greenbrier mystery where Detective Walter Grayson and his partner Laura Black confront the ultimate truth about the case that has consumed them. Within an abandoned cabin at the edge of a Chicago forest, they discover ledgers filled with crossed-out names, walls that whisper secrets, and mirrors that reflect versions of themselves they refuse to recognize.But the revelation waiting at the spiral's center shatters everything they thought they knew: the Briar isn't a killer to be caught—it's a function that transfers from one vessel to another. Grayson hasn't been hunting the Briar; he has been carrying it. And now, as he disappears into the spiral, the inheritance passes to Black, continuing a cycle that began long before either of them arrived.The narrative weaves through atmospheric soundscapes featuring Peter Gabriel, Joy Division, The Smiths, and other haunting tracks that underscore the emotional weight of Grayson's final confession. "Endings don't disappear," he tells us. "They move." This isn't just his story—it's a warning about the silences we all carry and the debts we leave unpaid.We close with five reflections that turn the spiral toward you: What silence have you carried so long that it's begun to inherit you? Whose ledger are you writing without realizing it? What version of yourself smiles in the mirror when you don't? The Greenbrier waits in the rooms you've abandoned and the names you won't speak. Perhaps it's already writing your name.Remember this—you create your reality. But if you don't confront your silence, it doesn't disappear. It waits for someone else to carry it."True mastery is found in the details. The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."

Let's Chat!The deepest truths aren't spoken—they're carved into riddles we leave for ourselves to find.Detective Walter Grayson has been chasing the mysterious Greenbrier through a labyrinth of riddles, but tonight, the pursuit takes a devastating turn. Under an ancient oak tree at Brockwell Asylum, he unearths a box containing items that shouldn't exist: his hospital bracelet from 1974, a knife bearing his initials, and Polaroids showing impossible scenes from a past he doesn't remember living.As Grayson and his partner Laura Black venture deeper into the abandoned asylum, they discover walls covered in riddles written in his handwriting—some fresh, some decades old. A spiral pattern leads them through haunted corridors while post-punk anthems from Joy Division, The Cure, and The Smiths emanate not from speakers but from the building itself, each lyric a piece of a confession Grayson has been avoiding.What begins as a detective story transforms into something far more profound: an excavation of memory, a confrontation with buried truths, and the terrifying realization that Grayson might not be hunting the Greenbrier—he might be the Greenbrier himself. Every riddle is a confession in disguise, every spiral a path back to the self, and every silence a truth waiting to be spoken.This episode isn't just about supernatural horror; it's about the boxes we all bury, the patterns we circle without recognizing, and the witnesses who see the truths we pretend not to know. Through five powerful reflections, you'll be challenged to examine your own riddles and face what you've been avoiding. Because as Grayson discovers, peace of mind doesn't come from cleverness or forgetting—it comes from finally speaking the words you've been afraid to say.The Greenbrier doesn't live in the shadows. He lives in the questions you refuse to answer. He will wait until you finally speak.Ready to confront your own riddles?

The way you handle the little things defines the way you handle everything."

Burn Kit: Noise with HeartGuest: Valentino (Burn Kit) • Host: Graham CoathFrom New Hampshire's Dover (yes, there's an “old” one too) to stages across Europe and the US, Valentino of Burn Kit brings raucous guitars, serious intent, and a very human pulse. In this conversation, he and Graham dig into the band's British post-punk DNA (The Damned, Joy Division, Chameleons, The Smiths), why the songs are dark but the people aren't, and how a DIY writing process becomes a full-band wildfire.They get honest about passion vs paycheque bands, why live shows deliver a feeling screens can't, and the eternal tussle between algorithm-chasing and making work from the heart. Valentino shares how Burn Kit craft energetic, person-to-person gigs that “wake people back up,” and what's next: touring now, then heads-down on their first full-length album.In this episode:The origin of the name Burn Kit (and the almost-band names that didn't make it)British influences shaping an American soundValentino's demo-to-band songwriting flow — and how each member elevates the trackSerious music, healthy humour: avoiding the “untouchable prince of darkness” actWhy some bands keep going without passion (and why Burn Kit won't)Community > virality: the live connection you can't streamAuthenticity in a saturated scene — and how to “educate the algorithm”What's next: the debut LP and how listeners can genuinely supportSupport the artist: Find Burn Kit on Bandcamp and say hello on their socials — every play, purchase, and share helps independent music thrive.If you enjoyed this chat, follow My Music, leave a quick rating/review, and pass the episode on to a friend who loves their guitars loud and their art honest.

Anne's visit with Mrs. Smith continues, and so do Mrs. Smith's revelations about the truth of Mr. Elliot's character. The Smiths were acquainted with Mr. Elliot long before this current moment in Bath, and that means that Mrs. Smith knows much more than Anne realized. Behind Mr. Elliot's friendliness, there is calculation, cunning, and trickery, with a bit of being a spendthrift to boot. Anne knew there was more to Mr. Elliot than met the eye, but the extent of it all astounds her. As she processes these new discoveries, let her story help you process your day and move into a night of restful sleep.-----Welcome to the Jane Austen Bedtime Stories podcast!

Jack and Mike dust off this podcast's flagship segment, "How F***ing Dumb Are You?!" In the States, a Publisher's Clearing House winner is in financial trouble after the company went bankrupt and stopped paying him. Jack thinks he should have built a nest egg and kept working, to avoid such conundrums. Meanwhile, in Japan, an old woman was scammed by someone pretending to be an astronaut in distress. Mike has some THOUGHTS about that! Elsewhere in this episode of Hardly Focused: Jack and Mike review Nine Inch Nails' Boston concert Jack traveled to New York City with Becky to visit the 9/11 Museum, and later FINALLY see Oasis perform live Steven Patrick Morrissey is selling his ownership of The Smiths to anyone who wants it Studies confirm, sitting on the toilet for too long is a sure-fire way to get hemorrhoids FOLLOW and SUBSCRIBE! https://hardlyfocused.com/subscribe Learn more about your ad choices.

The internet's still broken, folks, and apparently, AI's here to make it more awkward. Intel caught a break from Uncle Sam's CHIPS Act, cool for them, not so much for those 'flashing warning signs' in the job market. Meta's been letting celebrity chatbots run wild (and creepy), Midjourney's getting sued by Warner Bros. for stealing IP (who'da thought?), and OpenAI thinks an AI hiring platform is a good idea. Plus, an AI chatbot automated a cybercrime spree, totally unexpected. If you're calling ChatGPT a 'clanker,' you're not wrong, but seriously? Your butt probably needs a break from the toilet.Elon Musk and his joyride of companies continue to make us wonder if we're living in a dystopian satire. Tesla got slapped with a $243 million verdict after rejecting a $60 million settlement (because that's how you make deals, right?). 'Key data' they said they didn't have? A hacker found it. His vague 'master plan' sounds like a last-minute college essay, and software deploys airbags before you crash. His quest for a trillion-dollar pay package is on, and Neuralink can't even trademark 'telepathy.' They're doing brain surgeries in Toronto now. What could go wrong?On the lighter side, Finland built a giant sand battery, which is cool, and iOS 26 finally gave iPads a native Instagram app after, like, forever. We've got movie reviews, TV binges (Wednesday is really good), and a deep dive into KPop Demon Hunters (seriously, listen to the songs). FIFA's jacking up World Cup ticket prices with dynamic pricing (of course they are), and Morrissey's selling his stake in The Smiths (probably to escape his own 'malicious associations').

After Andrew's failure to help Luke with his stand-up routine, Luke turns to A.I. for some jokes. Plus, Morrissey is ready to sell his stake in the songs he wrote for The Smiths, and you know he's serious because he set-up a gmail account and posted it on Instagram. 

Fair Lawn Farm's 18th-Century Trades Fair is an annual living history trades encampment in bucolic Highland County, Virginia, featuring artisans affiliated with the likes of Colonial Williamsburg, The Frontier Culture Museum, The Smithsonian and Townsends. For this in-the-field episode, we will be touring the tents, hearing from a dozen craftsmen-&-women about their historical trades ranging from gunsmithing & engraving, to powder horn making & woodworking. Topics discussed: Indian trade silver; gorgets; tin as 18th-century plastic; how to be an American peddler; the itinerant green-woodworker; bread-baking with "baker's match;" natural dyes made from wood shavings; historical uses of animal fats such as bear grease, deer & cow tallow; powder horns and the origin of scrimshaw folk art; casting lead ammunition; Fort Seybert's annual fort burning festival; the surveyor's compass & the white man's flies; acanthus scrollwork on flintlock firearms & self-taught mastery; and last and most importantly, the potential for a craft revival as the antidote to the AI Revolution.

Start your morning with Buzzcast with Austin Karp: ESPN DTC rolls out plans for NFL at launch; the Smiths look to create destination in downtown SLC; WNBA Cleveland gets its first team president; and could MLB.tv be headed to ESPN?

The best rock album ever made by a band with a frontman pretending to not have a penis. The gloriously unwieldy catalog of The Smiths is tremendous front to end - but there was a little extra specialness happening with The Queen is Dead as The Smiths closed out their final full year of existence.

Early in August, Record Store Day held their annual "Summer Camp" meeting in New Orleans, once again returning to the lovely Hotel Monteleone, in the heart of the French Quarter, for a few days of meeting, schmoozing, and, frankly, Big Easy cuisine. During the week, host Paul Myers recorded a couple of live interviews with musicians talking about their approach to the music business in 2025.  Today, we are sharing one of them. Guitarist, singer, songwriter, producer David Rawlings, whose most recent album with Gillian Welch, Woodland, was one of the best records of 2024, sat down with Paul in the Hotel Monteleone ballroom to discuss his duo's truly independent, and self-reliant, approach to the business of music making and distribution. Welch and Rawlings are co-owners of Nashville's Woodland Studio, their own Acony Records label, and now, they are partners in their own prestige pressing facility, Paramount Pressing & Plating, in Denver, Colorado. It's a fun talk! The Record Store Day Podcast is a weekly music chat show written, produced, engineered and hosted by Paul Myers, who also composed the theme music and selected interstitial music.  Executive Producers (for Record Store Day) Michael Kurtz and Carrie Colliton.

How about those intergenerational Smith family members hanging around and impacting the Memphis area for about a century, including Fred Smith, the founder of FedEx? What is it about such impact across generations—is it about interests, passions, or aptitudes…or all three? Join Kevin as we take a glimpse at the Smiths of Memphis and ponder the way their hands were played—and consider our own approaches afresh! // Download this episode's Application & Action questions and PDF transcript at whitestone.org.

Dungeons and Dragons is a far out game and perhaps a work of social evil

Producer Mark Wallis began his career as the assistant to Steve Lillywhite on U2's War album. How about THAT being the first thing on your resume?! This launched a great career working some of the best pop acts of the era. He produced the Go-Between's perfect album 16 Lovers Lane, the debuts from the Primitives and the Silencers, and music from artists like Paul Kelly, the Mighty Lemon Drops, the Wildhearts, Icicle Works and more. He also engineered the Smiths' "How Soon is Now" and tells that story. He was a total sport for taking my nerdy questions.

What does ministry fruitfulness look like in Papua New Guinea? Alex Kocman talks with Bill and Lori Smith, veteran ABWE missionaries who have served in Papua New Guinea (PNG) for nearly 40 years. The Smiths share their journey into missions, the unique cultural and spiritual challenges in PNG, and the dual nature of their ministry—training pastors and missionaries at Goroka Baptist Bible College and providing medical care through a high-volume clinic and foster care ministry. Bill and Lori emphasize that while PNG is often labeled a “Christian nation,” deep-rooted animism, syncretism, and spiritual oppression are prevalent, creating ongoing needs for evangelism, discipleship, and training indigenous missionaries to reach both remote PNG tribes and neighboring Pacific nations. They share real-life stories of God's miraculous interventions and how, through it all, God is allowing them to plant churches, one baby at a time. Key Topics Bill and Lori Smith's background and calling to missions in Papua New Guinea Cultural context: animism, syncretism, and hidden spiritual strongholds despite widespread Christianity Goroka Baptist Bible College: 50 years of ministry, 500 graduates, 300+ churches planted Medical ministry: serving 150 patients per day, maternal care, and gospel witness To find out more about the Smith's ministry and to get involved, visit abwe.org/png.

Their latest album, Diamond Vehicle, came out in early 2025. KEXP’s Martin Douglas spoke with Imperioli about how he started playing music, the influence of Buddhism in his songwriting, and his fondness of The Beatles, Lou Reed, and The Smiths. “When you play with people for a long time, hopefully something gels,” Imperioli says of Zopa’s music. “It took a while to get there, but I’m happy with how it came out.” Support the show: kexp.org/deeper Support the show: https://www.kexp.org/sound/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when you mix a passionate teacher, a business-savvy nurse practitioner, and a dream to build something of their own? You get Noah and Jennifer Smith—a dynamic duo who turned one child care center into three thriving schools in Pennsylvania. Tune in to this episode of the Child Care Genius Podcast as Brian and Carol catch up with the Smiths to hear how they've grown their business, managed their time, and learned to delegate without losing their sanity.   Listen in as Jennifer shares her journey from employee to owner, how a leap of faith during COVID led to a life-changing purchase, and why opening a second school was far more challenging than the third. You'll hear the real story—the stress, the tears, the doubts—and the turning point that helped her finally let go and scale with confidence. Noah explains how he balances multiple businesses, a full-time job, and his role behind the scenes in the child care centers by sticking to a tight schedule and trusting the systems they've built.   Join us as we dive into how the Smiths' schools stand out from the crowd with top-tier quality ratings, programs that give back to under-resourced families, and a team culture that includes real benefits and support for teachers. This episode is packed with advice for anyone dreaming of opening their first child care center—or scaling beyond one.   From near-disastrous deals to smart investments, from daily check-ins to boundaries that protect their personal life, Noah and Jennifer reveal what it really takes to grow a successful business as a couple and as parents. If you're ready to scale, delegate, or just get inspired by a couple who figured it out together, this one's for you.       Mentioned in this episode:   GET TICKETS to the Child Care Genius LEVERAGE Conference:  https://childcaregenius.com/leverage/   Need help with your child care marketing?

In January 2018, 25-year-old Trish Haynes returned to New Hampshire for a court date. She planned to stay just a few months and then head back to Florida, where her grandparents were waiting for her. But that return trip never happened. After moving in with an old classmate and her husband - Ashley and Doug Smith - Trish's contact with her family dropped off. And by July, she was officially reported missing. Weeks later, investigators found her jawbone inside a washer that had been dumped in a nearby pond.  To this day, no one has been arrested. And Trish's family is still waiting for justice. Trish Haynes was last heard from on May 16, 2018, during a brief phone call with her grandmother. She was staying with Ashley and Doug Smith at their rental property in Grafton, New Hampshire. In late August, police searched the Smiths' home. A second search led them to Grant Pond, less than a mile away, where investigators recovered a washer containing Trish's jawbone. The rest of her remains have never been located.  If you have any information that could help this case, you can call the New Hampshire State Police at 603-223-4381.

In this two-part series, we examine the controversial yet crucial topic of Organic Portals, NPCs (Non-Player Characters), Agent Smiths, and soulless humans. We aim to clarify the meaning of these terms, their origins, and how they have often been misunderstood and misapplied.

In this episode the Smiths, Raffi and special guest Marcela Barcelona talk about self love and body image through answering the question: “How do I love myself the way I love others??” (Submitted by: Crystal, 20, Connecticut)You can get your copy of The ‘Bible, Simplified' by Zach Windahl wherever books are sold or head to thebiblesimplified.com to learn more.Check out our website, Thehandlebarpodcast.com for more information, merch, how to partner with us and more.
