My dearly departed Mom was a big fan of daytime television soap operas.  She got up early each morning and made breakfast for us four boys.  Then she sent us off to school and said goodbye to Dad as he drove downtown to work at his retail job. Mom still had a sink full of the morning dishes plus loads of yesterday’s dirty clothes to wash, hang out to dry, and, later, iron.  My 4’10” mother stayed quite busy but found a way to keep up with her friends on weekdays. She spent a portion of her day watching a few cheesy daytime television soap operas on her little black-and-white portable television. Mom often referred to these characters (mostly the good characters) as her “friends.” Declining ratings and increased production costs has seen a reduction in several long-time television “friends” which Mom once viewed. Today, sports fans are glued to a new fast moving soap opera based in Baton Rouge! There is less than one week before the LSU Tigers kick-off the 2026 football season against the ACC’s Clemson Tigers on Saturday night (6:30PM CDT on ABC) in Baton Rouge.  Both teams’ head coaches have a lot riding on making a good first impression. Clemson’s Dabo Swinney is under growing pressure after a few disappointing (by recent Clemson standards) seasons.  The two-time national championship coach has been able to quell most of the “Fire the coach!” grumblings by reminding the press how much they all loved him a few years ago.  Coach Swinney is officially on the hot seat this season. LSU’s new head football coach and his program have been making a lot of headlines since the end of last season.  Coach Lane Kiffin (whether purposeful or not) is a human headline machine.  Kiffin’s on-field success and frequent job changes have kept him in the media spotlight. Tigers fans care only whether Kiffin can mastermind a way to help LSU capture its fifth national title in college football.  Coach Kiffin quickly hit the ground running with his new job.  LSU’s new coach is trying to do everything possible to make the championship dream happen for himself and the Tigers faithful. The sports media has been working 24/7 jumping aboard the “Lane Train” as news out of Baton Rouge continues to play like a never-ending LSU-based soap opera. “As the Tigers Turn” Has it really been seven years since the 2019 LSU Tigers football team obliterated all comers in a 15-0 national championship season? Much has changed since Louisiana’s own Ed Orgeron ruled the bayous as the head football coach of LSU’s fourth national champions of college football. Heisman quarterback Joe Burrow, wide receivers Justin Jefferson and Ja’Marr Chase have become highly paid NFL stars. Other LSU players from that team are also enjoying nice NFL paychecks today. That 2019 championship season came during the early days of the NCAA’s infamous Transfer Portal.   When coupled with the now-legal (but not in its intended form) Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL), a virtual Wild West Show of athletes has been taking place as more players enter and leave programs annually.   LSU head coach Ed Orgeron struggled during the ensuing years. LSU’s record slipped to 5-5 in the 2020 COVID-plagued season and fell to 6-7 in 2021. The likable but sometimes unfocused Coach O was shown the door following the 2021 season.  Orgeron laughed all the way to the bank to deposit his $17 million going away present courtesy of the wealthy LSU athletic supporters. “Search for Tomorrow”’s Coach LSU turned to Notre Dame football coach Brian Kelly beginning in 2022.  The veteran coach immediately instilled more discipline to his football team.  Kelly’s 10-4 opening season in 2022 gave LSU fans a glimmer of hope for the future. It was followed by 10-3 in 2023 and 9-4 in 2024. Brian Kelly set lofty expectations for LSU in 2025.  However, he pigeonholed problems behind the scenes (especially information about lingering injury issues with LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier).  After posting a modest 3-5 SEC mark and a 7-6 overall record, LSU wrote a $54 million exit check for Brian Kelly to skedaddle after last fall. Lane – is a Many Splendored Thing Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin has a history of short stays with his former employers.  The Rebels coach remained in Oxford for six years (a personal record!) before Kiffin shocked his team and the entire state of Mississippi by accepting the top job at SEC rival LSU. The 2025 Rebels had just finished their best regular season ever (11-1).  They were heading into the College Football Playoffs for the first time in school history.  That’s when their coach admitted that he had accepted the vacant LSU job. Upon arriving in Baton Rouge, Lane Kiffin immediately got to work on upgrading LSU’s football talent – especially on offense.  He went dialing for dollars utilizing the NCAA transfer portal combined with a very large ($40+ million) wallet filled with NIL bucks to sign dozens of new players. In fact, Coach Kiffin just signed a few additional players over the past week which has created a new chapter to our growing soap opera story. The Young and the…Ruthless? Coach Lane Kiffin is just 51 years of age.  He exudes a boyish twinkle in his eyes along the sidelines as he watches his football team confound opponents with yet another timely and well-conceived offensive play call. LSU’s new head football coach was hired to transform the Tigers’ offense into the upper echelon of the SEC.  The Tigers’ defense has been expected to remain top caliber again this season. Saturday night’s first game in the Coach Lane Kiffin era will feature least 44 new LSU players taking the field against Clemson.  This year’s LSU football team looks like an assemblage of Frankenstein-styled parts. The multitude of new players have been bought and paid for by LSU’s $13 million/year mad scientist/coach Lane Kiffin. You’re going to need time to learn the names of your new players, LSU fans! You will find a new transfer quarterback #10 Sam Leavitt (Arizona State) tossing passes downfield to new wide receivers #3 Eugene Wilson III (Florida) and #4 Jackson Harris (Hawaii). Holy courtroom drama, Batman!  The SEC lawyers are joining the action in Baton Rouge on Thursday LSU made more national news last week by signing several former college football players recently cut by their NFL employers during the preseason. This spring, the NCAA ruled that, beginning this fall, college athletes will be granted five years of athletics eligibility over a five year period following their high school graduation. However, a group of 16 former college football players (who had exhausted all four of their years of eligibility under the previous NCAA standard) filed a lawsuit in Louisiana.  They demanded the right to play a fifth season of college football this fall should their NFL employers release them following the final preseason games. One of those players is former LSU linebacker Jack Pyburn. He played at the University of Florida for three years but transferred to Baton Rouge for his final year in 2025.  Pyburn was signed by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but has been released after the final preseason roster cuts.  He now wants to return to play football at LSU this fall. So do former Ole Miss tight end Dae’Quon Wright and defensive lineman Zxavian Harris, among others.  They were former standouts for coach Lane Kiffin last season in Oxford. Like Jack Pyburn, the two former Ole Miss players signed NFL contracts but have been cut by their teams.  They could quickly learn the playbook of their former coach – now at LSU.   The SEC is furious about the new LSU football coach’s decision to add several former college players who signed and participated with professional teams over the summer. Last week, the Southeastern Conference joined hands with the ACC, Big Ten, and Big 12 Conferences in a rare move of solidarity. The four major college football conferences want to prohibit former players from the freshman class of 2022 from returning to school this fall to play football after they signed contracts to play for a professional sports league team.  The ramifications for LSU could be massive. The SEC’s proposed punishment could involve suspending coach Lane Kiffin for half of the current season.  Worse, LSU’s athletics program could be fined 50% of its $200 million annual athletics budget. Ouch. On Sunday, the SEC announced that the conference plans to abide with the court’s current decision (allowing the former NFL players to participate).  However, an additional hearing of this matter will occur this Thursday in the judge’s courtroom in Baton Rouge. The SEC has retained a powerful legal concern based in New Orleans to vigorously attempt to get the judge to reverse positions in this matter on Thursday. Wow!  This could become a high drama legal showdown taking place just two days before LSU hosts Clemson on national television Saturday night in Baton Rouge. Meanwhile, the remainder of the SEC head coaches and administrators are fuming mad.  They are pounding the war drums and sound as if they are ready to toss LSU completely out of the SEC if they don’t forget about playing those ex-pro athletes this fall. Louisiana State University has been part of the Southeastern Conference since its founding in 1932. I can picture thousands of hands waving “Pick me, SEC!” in North Carolina, Clemson, and Florida State today! Before ACC fans of those schools get too giddy, keep in mind that Disney’s ESPN and ABC own the television rights to SEC football. If LSU were to (shudder) get booted from the SEC over this issue, the Big Ten or the Big 12 Conference (both televised by competitor FOX Sports) would quickly make an offer to the Tigers. LSU might even consider going independent and negotiate its own national television contract like Notre Dame.  Why share the loot when you can keep it all for yourself, right? I fully expect ESPN/ABC to intervene to tamp down the growing SEC anger in short order. This year’s LSU “Black Hat” Tigers will the hottest college football commodity on television.  ESPN cannot afford to lose LSU anytime soon. A good TV soap opera usually contains just a few small weekly plot twists. By contrast, this new sports soap opera based in Baton Rouge has been making-up its own script from week to week.  Who knows where all of this will lead next? Our next episode of “As the Tigers Turn!” should be a dandy.   Stay tuned! The post New Plot Twists in the LSU Football Soap Opera! appeared first on SwampSwamiSports.com.

It's one of the saddest parts of television history. Thousands of episodes of American daytime soap operas from the 1950s, '60s and into the '70s are gone, and in many cases the networks themselves deliberately erased them. Guest Host talks about the whole debacle.

A deluxe edition of The Sprina Sessions is live!

John is broadcasting live from the Howard Stern Tower in New York City with Chris and Thea in studio. He talks about the dubious appointment of Todd Blanche as Attorney General, a move that raises serious questions about integrity and accountability within the Republican Party. As Blanche navigates a web of conflicts, John explores the implications of a political culture more concerned with appearances than ethical standards. Then, he speaks with David Jolly, the Democratic candidate for governor of Florida, who shares his remarkable political journey from a Republican congressman to an independent and finally a Democrat. David discusses the current state of the Republican Party, the urgent need for change in Florida, and his confidence in the Democratic message resonating with voters. Next, John jokes with award-winning Democratic Strategist Max Burns, who shares his perspectives on Trump's tariffs and their detrimental effects on the American auto industry. Together, they dissect the disconnect between Trump's promises and the harsh realities faced by workers, particularly in Michigan, where union members are beginning to question their past support for the president. Then finally, he welcomes back Professor Corey Brettschneider. They talk about the troubling confirmation of Todd Blanche as Attorney General, discussing his qualifications—or lack thereof—and the implications of his potential actions on democracy and the press. They also examine the alarming trend of the DOJ's aggressive tactics against journalists, highlighting the chilling effect on free speech. And, they touch on the ongoing political maneuvering surrounding mail in voting and the broader constitutional threats posed by Trump and his minions.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we'll catch up with one of our favorite Soap Opera actors on a show titled "Up Beyond The Gates."

We have a full crew to discuss a surprisingly crazy find on an Actor Spotlight, 3 (Or 2 I guess) great Zords in a row! We also discuss exactly how much money Taylor owes the United States Government, Bears and Bear Powers, Extremely creepy twins, Cole's deep need to be shirtless, the Red Lion being a buddy, and more about Dime Store Palpatine, AKA Master Org.

Amanda Reyes and Daniel Budnik joined me for a fascinating conversation inspired by the Soap Operas in Popular Culture Conference and their presentation, Daytime After Dark: Exploring the Relationship Between the Daytime Drama and the Primetime Made-for-TV Movie.Together, we looked at the surprising connection between daytime soap operas and the primetime TV movie boom of the 1970s, '80s, and '90s. Amanda and Dan shared how soap stars regularly crossed into made-for-TV movies, why networks embraced these actors in primetime projects, and how these films became major television events for audiences across the country.We also discussed their love of soap operas, the origins of The Made-For-TV Mayhem Show, and some of the most memorable TV movies of the era.As a special surprise, Colleen Zenk joined us to share memories of appearing in Woman on the Ledge alongside Deidre Hall and Leslie Charleson, and she also looked back at her memorable role as Binky in the cult classic Christmas Evil.If you love soap operas, television history, pop culture nostalgia, and behind-the-scenes stories, this is an episode you will not want to miss.

Colleen wrapped up the final season of the "The Bear" on FX on Hulu and she recommends making a reservation, Jason updates us on John Oliver's soap opera ambitions -- he's going to be on TWO soap operas, and we go down soap opera memory lane. Plus, Holly checked out "The Sheep Detectives" on Amazon Prime -- it's delightful or disturbing, depending on who you ask...

This week, we are looking at a hilariously poorly acted Kmart employee training video from 1992. It beats you over the head with their 'smart sales plan,' but remember it's not an extended warranty.This week's Top 5 features the worst of the worst when it comes to acting. Poor box office performance, terrible critic reviews, loads of Razzie nominations. Some of these are obvious, maybe a few are surprising, but all make the list of worst actors ever. And of course, there is a new This Week In History and Time Capsule looking back at the delicious invention of the ring donut.Thank you so much to everyone who has listened over the years and helped me make it to 250 episodes of the podcast.

He notes Netflix will debut “Adam Ray: Dr. Phil Live” on June 19 as a cheaply produced TV show mislabeled as a podcast, with four episodes and guests such as Michael Bublé, Dave Matthews, Nikki Glaser, and Santino, plus future guests including Hasan Minhaj, Marshawn Lynch, Joel McHale, Mark Normand, and more; Ray also improvises characters like Dr. Phil. Days of Our Lives reportedly cast John Oliver after his on-air offer.

“Today is all about 7's…”   We can't believe it…it's officially been SEVEN years since we began our podcasting journey, and as of this episode, we are celebrating SEVEN years of heavy metal podcasting excellence!  And in the spirit of heavy metal greatness, what better way to celebrate and commemorate the completion of our SEVENTH year than a tribute to the best thing MTV ever did for metal heads that started way back in the late 80's: HEADBANGERS BALL!!!   “It was the novelty, because that was the only place where you could get it…”   Premiering on Saturday April 18, 1987, MTV began what would become a weekly Saturday night tradition and/or ritual for metal heads with HEADBANGERS BALL, the one section of MTV that belonged to the metal community…it was OUR show, OUR music, and OUR videos, made by metal heads for metal heads (ironically, not unlike this podcast).   “SEVEN!”   Granted, there were often a lot of glam and hair metal videos mixed in, but there were always a plethora of obscure thrash, power metal, and other assorted heavy metal videos on there that you absolutely could not see anywhere else on MTV except for when you tuned in to “The Ball” (NOTE:  this is where the crochety “back in my day” sentiment comes into play because, as everyone with access to the internet knows, in the late 80's, rock radio sure as hell wasn't doing much to promote metal artists, and we certainly didn't have Spotify or YouTube at our disposal. “The Ball” was all we had…mark the time.).   “They weren't Trans then, dude…they were 100% dudes and they were the Savatage Brothers…”   Break out your finest relaxers and get ready for a celebratory stroll down memory lane, and understand that since we're discussing music videos, you're gonna need all the sensory enhancement you can muster to thoroughly maximize your enjoyment of this episode. Find out who's “lips are always out”, understand why calling a woman “handsome” is a dangerous move even with the proper context, see how many applicable references to “SEVEN!” you can find in this episode, and don't deny the power of “The Dinklage” when you JOIN US as we celebrate our 7th birthday in nostalgic style with HEADBANGERS BALL.

First, I want to give a big fat thank you to our friend Joan Kanner who hooked me up with Hazel, knowing this would be a great conversation! It's fun when things just line up really perfectly - for me, at least. Last week we heard from Austin French, of the More Than Outdoors podcast, and it was just chance that today we're learning from Hazel Stark, of The Maine Outdoor School - both in Maine, both focusing on outdoor activities. Seriously,  how fun is that? AND I had asked Austin what a State Guide does, because is co-host is a Maine Guide, but Hazel is as well, so I get to have my curiosity satisfied!Hazel, Naturalist Educator, Registered Maine Guide, and Wilderness First Responder is from Maine- she explored, as people do, and after studying in California for a year, she knew what she had to bring to Maine. Maine Outdoor school was born in 2016. Hazel's business partner left it to her after several years, and in 2025 Hazel became the sole Owner and CEO. The school offers classes for children and adults, but it is so much more - they offer public school programming, professional development, homeschool programs, virtual programming, outdoor adventures...Hazel shared some really profound things: one is a quote from Erin K Kenny "kids can't bounce off the walls if there are no walls." I've heard that many times, but it felt more meaningful in this container. She also says "If nature isn't being taught, it's being taught as not important." And also "Nature isn't a nicety, it's a NECESSITY."  SO much wisdom was shared here to note it all.I had a huge AHA talking with Hazel; growing up in a larger town in Maine, I didn't spend a lot of time outside - my sister and I watched a lot of Soap Operas after school instead of playing outside (insert shoulder shrug emoji), so I don't have a lot of experience, other than gardening - I said a few times here that I wonder if my life would be different now, had I had more of an outdoor influence...Learn even more about what's offered through the Maine Outdoor School here: https://www.maineoutdoorschool.org/Check out the Women for Healthy Rural Living site here: https://whrl.org/Maine Outdoor School on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/maineoutdoorschool/Send me a message!Support the showLike this episode?
