The show also celebrated a major career milestone for Jeezy, who was surprised by LeBron James with a Key to the City of Las Vegas during the finale of his “Legend of the Snowman” residency. Rather than ending the residency, Jeezy announced additional dates through New Year’s Eve, showing continued demand for the Atlanta rap icon. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The Rickey Smiley Morning Show packed the conversation with headline-making news, candid celebrity revelations, and inspirational moments. The show opened with the latest developments in the Karmelo Anthony case after a Texas judge denied the teenager’s request for a new trial, leaving his murder conviction and 35-year sentence in place while his legal team continues its appeal efforts. Recent reports indicate the retrial request centered on evidence and courtroom procedures that the defense argued were not fully presented to jurors, but the court ultimately upheld the original verdict. The crew also debated parenting and self-defense after Cardi B revealed she has enrolled her children in boxing classes and wants them to be able to protect themselves and, one day, defend her if necessary. Adding a more personal and meaningful conversation, singer Kehlani opened up about being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and borderline personality disorder, explaining how therapy, medication, and understanding her triggers have transformed her life and improved her mental health journey. The show also celebrated a major career milestone for Jeezy, who was surprised by LeBron James with a Key to the City of Las Vegas during the finale of his “Legend of the Snowman” residency. Rather than ending the residency, Jeezy announced additional dates through New Year’s Eve, showing continued demand for the Atlanta rap icon. Listeners were also treated to Money Mondays with Jini Thornton, who shared practical advice on helping aging parents organize their finances, legal documents, and long-term care plans before a crisis occurs. Other trending topics included Jamie Foxx preparing to welcome another child, tributes to late actor Michael Wright of The Five Heartbeats, and a lively discussion about mental health, family, and protecting loved ones while navigating life’s challenges.

Greetings, and welcome back to Horror Business. We've got one heck of an episode in store for you guys as we're talking about 1987's The Hidden and 2021's Significant Other. First off thank you to the fine folks over at Lehigh Valley Apparel Creations, the premiere screen-printing company of the Lehigh Valley. Chris Reject and his merry band of miscreants are ready to work with you to bring to life your vision of a t-shirt for your business, band, project, or whatever else it is you need represented by a shirt, sweater, pin, or coozy. Head on over to www.xlvacx.com to check them out. And as always thank you to our Patreon subscribers. Your support means the world to us and we are eternally thankful. If you would like to become a Patron, head to patreon.com/cinepunx. Thanks in advance! We briefly talk what we've doing involving horror recently. Liam talks about reading The Snowman. Justin talks about a few of the films he watched for the Fantasia International Film Festival, as well as the film Saccharine and a screening of the 1988 version of The Blob at the Mahoning Drive In. Up first is The Hidden. We talk about how the film is the essential late 80's cop/action film but instead of merely flirting with horror elements it openly embracing them by having the antagonist being a body hopping alien addicted to the human experience. Liam brings up the phenomenon of loving a movie as a kid but being disappointed by it as an adult and how this movie avoids them. Justin talks about how the film also openly embraces every late 80's cultural trope in addition to cop movie tropes. We discuss how the film is the quintessential “one in the morning on HBO back in the day” film. The film's flirtation with the “LA at night”/neon slime subgenre is discussed. We talk about how the film is a rare example of a cop's excessive actions is realistically depicted when a paramedic questions why a victim was shot fifteen times. Liam talks about the film using the tension of the good alien being found out as a source of anxiety. We talk about the somewhat weak narrative that the one cops daughter knowing Kyle McLaughlin's character is an alien actually brings the movie down a notch. We briefly talk about how the sequel likely sucks and the film being an example of something that kind of fell flat when it first came out but later found a wider audience. Justin talks about how his only real problem with the film is how the bad alien is revealed too early. Up next is Significant Other. Justin talks about how the film's twist is what makes it initially watchable and knowing that twist kind of takes away from the film and how the film is an example of the trope where aliens cannot comprehend the concept of love and laments not enjoying the film as much the second time around. Liam talks about how he forgot that he had seen it initially and that the twist comes right when he was becoming overwhelmingly annoyed with the character, and how the concept of the alien as a “frustrated actor” was compelling. We talk about how one of the film's shortcomings is that it doesn't explore the concept of aliens that are so different from humanity that they don't understand love. We further dissect the concept of empathy as an alien idea. As always thank you for listening and to everyone and anyone who donated on Patreon, checked this episode out, or shared a tweet/shared a post on FB/gave us love by recommending us to someone.

What's up, dudes? Kevin Williams from ‘Tis the Soundtrack joins me to talk about Rainbow “Snowman!” Yes, the former Deep Purple guitarist took Howard Blake's song from the 1982 classic and reworked it as an atmospheric synth and electric guitar anthem!Rainbow was formed in 1975 by guitarist Ritchie Blackmore after he began to tire of Deep Purple and the band's changing musical direction. Deep Purple had already replaced Ian Gillan and Roger Glover with David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes, but Blackmore remained unhappy with where the music was headed. What began as Blackmore recording a single with members of the band Elf ultimately grew into a full album and the creation of Rainbow. The band quickly became known for its larger-than-life live shows, whose centerpiece was a massive computer-controlled rainbow containing some 3,000 lightbulbs and stretching 40 feet across the stage. Rainbow also became notorious for its revolving door of musicians, with original vocalist Ronnie James Dio departing in 1978 over disagreements about the band's increasingly commercial musical direction. After further lineup changes, Joe Lynn Turner eventually took over as lead singer, ushering in Rainbow's more radio-friendly early-'80s era. That lineup would lead to Bent Out of Shape, released September 9, 1983, which featured the song in question as the album's ninth track.Rainbow's instrumental “Snowman,” featured on their 1983 album Bent Out of Shape, is based on “Walking in the Air,” the haunting theme written by composer Howard Blake for the beloved 1982 animated film The Snowman, itself adapted from Raymond Briggs' 1978 children's book. Blake had actually composed the melody around 1970 before later adapting it for the television special, where it became the musical centerpiece of the story. The Snowman—which went on to become a seasonal television favorite in Britain and Finland—follows the fleeting adventure of a young boy and the snowman he brings to life. During their magical flight to the North Pole, “Walking in the Air” accompanies the pair as they soar through the night before attending a gathering of snowmen and meeting Santa Claus and his reindeer. In the original film, the song was performed by St. Paul's Cathedral choirboy Peter Auty, whose recording was later reissued in 1985 and 1987. Ritchie Blackmore was captivated by the composition's haunting, melodic beauty and, having long enjoyed adapting classical and traditional melodies into rock instrumentals, transformed Blake's delicate vocal theme into “Snowman.” Rainbow's version builds atmospheric tension around the familiar melody before giving Blackmore the opportunity to let loose with a soaring, emotional electric-guitar lead—turning one of animation's most delicate Christmas themes into a distinctly Rainbow instrumental.Synth flute? Check. Fuzzy guitar? Got it. Brad Fiedel The Terminator-style synth percussion? Definitely! So grab your guitar, stand behind that keyboard, and rock out to Rainbow “Snowman!”‘Tis the SoundtrackYouTube: @TisTheSoundtrackIG: @tisthesoundtrackGive us a buzz!

Liza Libes is a writer and literary critic at Pens and Poison. Her parents escaped the Soviet Union. She went to Columbia. She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since. We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Continuing Issue 74 of Double Reel, the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd. Now it's the Remakes Tribunal where we put two films up for judgement. First up, it's a Remake on Trial and we ask whether they should have made another screen adaptation of Thomas Harris's Red Dragon after Michael Mann's version from the 80s. Then we offer a Parole Board hearing to a film that didn't work the first time and ask if a remake would fix its problems. This time it's The Snowman, in which everyone made a terrible mess of trying to bring Jo Nesbo's Nordic crime fiction antihero Harry Hole to the screen. Double Reel Monthly and Classics & Hidden Gems are already out, and there's a Christopher Nolan special coming up in a few days.

Send us Fan MailScammers aren't just pretending to be idols anymore. They're reportedly impersonating entertainment companies to pitch fake performances and pull in serious investment money, and we dig into why Cube Entertainment's warning matters for fans, promoters, and anyone who treats a viral post like “proof.” If you follow K-pop news on X, Instagram, or Weverse, you'll recognize how fast these schemes can spread and how hard it is to tell what's real when everything looks official at a glance.We also talk about the kind of controversy that never seems to stay gone: fashion choices that collide with history. Mark's (Mark Lee formerly of NCT) new label issues an apology after a Confederate flag T-shirt appears in posted photos, and we break down why “vintage” is not the same as “harmless,” especially in a global music industry. From there we shift into better headlines, celebrating ATEEZ hitting a new career high in first-week sales for Golden Hour Part 5, and reacting to T.O.P's Asia fan meeting tour announcement and the intriguing “pre-studio” idea.On the J-pop and J-rock side, we're genuinely excited about STARTO Entertainment opening a free multilingual news archive for international fans, plus the formation of YAO with Awich, CHICO CARLITO, ONE OK ROCK, and Paledusk timed around Tanabata.

Journey with me on my health journey. That’s what the doctor’s office called it, or maybe the online portal, or maybe a folder of crap they gave me. A health journey into my butt. Which at this time was an absolute horroshow. Be grateful this is an audio format.
Shine on you crazy diamond. And shine on, my butt.
T&A: Tens And Aces. An AP Blackjack podcast. Turning the tables from Las Vegas to Local Casinos
In this episode, the now-infamous Snowman joins the show as he and I dive into the mailbag and answer your questions.What you're hearing is a significantly improved version of the original recording from November 2020, back when we were recording over Skype and doing our best to stay sane during pandemic lockdowns. If we're being honest, this entire AP Podcast project started out of pure boredom. There wasn't much to do, but I had a bunch of friends with great stories, so we started sharing them. Somehow, that little lockdown experiment grew into what Tens & Aces is today.The original audio quality of this episode made me cringe a bit when I revisited it in 2026, so I dusted off some of the ninja-level audio editing skills I've picked up over the years and cleaned it up as best I could. The sound is better now, but the real reason I wanted to bring this one back is because the content remains one of my favorite episodes we've ever done.So why not give it a listen?Thank you for all of your support over the years. We couldn't have done this without you, and we're just getting started. Here's to many more years ahead!I'm also using this episode as a test of our new podcast feed after some jackass decided to attempt to get the show's feed taken down because he wasn't a fan of certain truths being discussed. We stand by the truth with our integrity 100% intact. He remains standing in his web of lies and toxicity. He's shown his true self to this community with his continued actions. But, like we've said in the past, the best way to get rid of a troll is to ignore the. So, let's get back to doing exactly that! We'll leave it at that!Anyway... here we go...
A tiny concert moment turned into a full-blown fandom mystery: when Jun Matsumoto grabbed a drone mid-song during the ARASHI show, it instantly reminded us of Jungkook doing the same thing on the BTS tour. So we do what we do best and start digging. Who grabbed the concert drone first, was it happening across multiple shows, and is it pure coincidence that both groups were touring in Japan around the same time?From there, we zoom out into bigger questions that every J-pop and K-pop fan ends up asking sooner or later: how long can groups really last, what the “seven-year itch” looks like in the industry, and why Arashi's long history gives us hope for BTS's future. We also celebrate BTS's AMAs wins, talk about what major U.S. recognition can mean, and bring back the goal that still cracks us up because it's also dead serious: SUGA wants a Grammy.We don't skip the messy side of pop culture, either. We react to legal action tied to defamation and misleading headlines, and we vent about the Ticketmaster class action email many fans just received. Then we get back to the good stuff: Arashi's upcoming Blu-ray and DVD release, STARTO talent updates like Takahisa Masuda's Yellow fashion brand, Snow Man finally putting a huge catalog on streaming, and Takuya Kimura's album and tour news.We close with a very real weekend recap: braving cold sideways rain for the Hello Kitty Cafe Truck pop-up in Boston, then finding out a meteor caused a sonic boom nearby hours later.

On this episode of Filmjitsu, Mike decides he'd like to "extend winter" a little longer by assigning Jay the Netflix holiday rom-com Hot Frosty. A calculated attempt to exploit Jay's well-documented affection for romantic comedies, this weird take on Frosty the Snowman stars Hallmark Channel royalty Lacey Chabert and a magically animated snowman blessed with abs that could cut glass. Is it a surprisingly heartfelt holiday romance, or just another disposable entry in the ever-expanding streaming content machine? The guys dig in during the main review and then afterward, Mike and Jay count down their Bottom Five Hotties, a collection of movie characters whose scorching appeal can't compensate for their terrible behavior or general awfulness. Then it's time once again for Dueling Double Bills, where the guys attempt to build the perfect companion features for wildly different movies and, as usual, wander into unexpected territory along the way. Finally, the eternal cycle of cinematic revenge continues when the next assignment is revealed. So crank up your air conditioning, grab a mug of hot cocoa and join the podcast that wields films like deadly weapons as they contend with more icy-hotness than Mike's used on his forever-ailing back.

In this second round we take up: a playlist of KYE's Straussian-related episodes; (Straussian) esoteric writing versus (French) death of the author and the art of writing (and interpretation); prose style—what it is, why it matters, its relationship to poetry, and the rhythms of Norman Maclean; a "Straussian" reading of Steely Dan; and why liberalism is (mostly) worth defending.
