Host Michael Azevedo is joined by Sasha Waters, the director of “Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World” a biographical documentary about poet Mary Oliver that is now playing in a limited theatrical release and which will broadcast on the PBS series American Masters in August.   Celebrated best-selling poet, Pulitzer Prize-winner, lover of dogs and long walks in the woods, openly queer but intensely private, Mary Oliver was America's unlikely contemporary mystic, stalking the ponds and forests of Cape Cod for nearly fifty years in order to open herself – and her readers – to the known and unknowable world.    From a lonely childhood to literary fame, Oliver's life was shaped by devotion to nature, paying attention, and the long journey toward learning to love and to be loved.    Her poems inspire liberals and conservatives, atheists and believers, naturalists and urbanites, speaking directly to contemporary anxieties about attention, presence, and the human relationship with the natural world.    Sasha Water's film features interviews with Mary Oliver's close friends, including John Waters, never-before-seen personal photos, notebooks, and correspondence from her archive, and recitations of her work by Stephen Colbert, Lucy Dacus, Steve Buscemi, and Oprah Winfrey.   Making Media Now—which is available on all podcast platforms including YouTube--is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum. From providing fiscal sponsorship to presenting an array of informative and educational programs, Filmmakers Collaborative supports creatives at every step in their journey.   About the host: www.writevoicecreative.com and https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-azevedo/   Sound Engineer: A.J.

Filmmaker Sasha Waters discusses her new documentary Mary Oliver: Saved by the Beauty of the World, about the prize-winning poet who became a lecture circuit sensation late in life. Waters reveals how she got Stephen Colbert, Helena Bonham Carter, Steve Buscemi, as well as Hairspray director John Waters (no relation to Sasha) to take part in the film.

The leftist cultural critic David Masciotra isn't happy with the state of America in the first half of 2026. His dislike of the MAGA crowd goes without saying. But his anger at the state of progressive politics is more noteworthy. So far, he says, 2026 has been — to borrow from Antonio Gramsci — a time for monsters both on the left and right. With its “Epstein class” vocabulary, knee-jerk Luddism and AIPAC litmus tests, the left, Masciotra argues, is mimicking MAGA in its paranoid bigotry. The year's most disturbing story so far is Graham Platner, the erstwhile Maine Senate candidate who, Masciotra suggests, is either an idiot or a Nazi. Equally disturbing were the “progressives” who blindly defended Platner until the most recent rape accusations. So how to slay these monsters on the left? What's missing, Masciotra argues, is the kind of positively benevolent Jacksonian (Jesse) vision which seizes the moral high ground of American politics. We are still waiting for the next Bill Clinton, Obama, or even Bernie able to imagine a new dawn for the left in America. Maybe we'll see the early shoots of a more optimistic progressivism in the second half of the year. In the manner of a football (soccer) match, let's hope 2026 turns out to be a year of two halves. Five Takeaways •       The Old Gods Return. Masciotra's answer to the what-time-is-it question is that 2026 has seen the old gods stumble back onto the landscape: nationalism, male chauvinism, paranoia and conspiracism. Borrowing from Zygmunt Bauman, he argues that we have moved from a solid age to a liquid one, in which nothing feels stable — and instability inculcates a nostalgia that is usually irrational and ill-informed. People are reaching for the resurrection of manufacturing, the male-headed nuclear family, even a return to religion, with young Americans reportedly turning to Catholicism. Quality of life is objectively better than in our grandparents' era, and yet we live in an age of doom-scrolling and pessimism. •       The Epstein Class and the Left's New Litmus Tests. The criticism of Israeli conduct after October 7 has morphed, for many on the left, into an all-encompassing paranoia in which AIPAC, Zionists, and “the Epstein class” control everything. Graham Platner coupled those terms constantly in his stump speeches — antisemitic conspiracy-mongering 101, in Masciotra's phrase — and declaring Israel genocidal has become a litmus test in Democratic primaries from Maine to Denver to California. Masciotra, who saw Jesse Jackson spend decades atoning for Hymietown, calls this the most important story of 2026 to monitor: the collapse of parts of the progressive left into bigotry, misogyny tolerance, and purity tests. •       Luxury Beliefs and Streamer Politics. Voter turnout used to be organized bottom-up — black churches, the NAACP, Jackson's Rainbow PUSH Coalition — around the issues of actual neighborhoods. Now streamers like Hasan Piker mobilize thousands of calls into districts they know nothing about, amplifying what Masciotra calls luxury beliefs: positions whose consequences never touch the people who hold them, from making every race about Israel to defunding police in neighborhoods the believers don't live in. Whether it's Piker on the left or Nick Fuentes on the right, national streamers will always champion luxury beliefs, because they lack the knowledge to champion local ones. •       Working-Class Drag Doesn't Work. Platner looked like he had just changed a tire and talked like a pro wrestler cutting a promo on Susan Collins — and the polls showed Collins beating him even before he dropped out over credible accusations of rape and domestic violence. White working-class voters, Masciotra argues, are not looking for someone in the right costume with the right gravelly voice; they have real beliefs, and they respond to people who speak directly to their concerns rather than in the nomenclature of consultant firms. Nobody in Maine piecing together a living as a farmer or a home-health aide has AIPAC first and foremost on their mind. •       Waiting for the Benevolent Vision. What the half-year lacks, from Washington to Westminster, is what Jesse Jackson had even for his critics: a benevolent vision. Masciotra finds it today in Bryan Stevenson and the civil rights tradition he calls the moral center of American politics, and in Senator Raphael Warnock, who preaches from King's old church. His policy candidate for the next Clinton-or-Obama moment is a self-employment manifesto — politics for the millions piecing together gig work who appear in nobody's rhetoric, not the manufacturing nostalgia of the right nor the union nostalgia of the left. And on AI, he sees an opening: oppose the secretly-dealt data centers, as presidential hopeful J.B. Pritzker has, but harness the technology for the precariat rather than the moguls. About the Guest David Masciotra is a cultural critic, journalist, and lecturer. He is the author of six books, including Exurbia Now: The Battleground of American Democracy (Melville House, 2024) and I Am Somebody: Why Jesse Jackson Matters (Bloomsbury, 2020), drawn from his many years working alongside the late Reverend Jackson. His writing appears in UnHerd, The New Republic, Washington Monthly, The Progressive, and the Los Angeles Review of Books, and he teaches literature and political science in Indiana. He is a longtime friend of the show. References: •       Exurbia Now: The Battleground of American Democracy by David Masciotra (Melville House, 2024). Booklist, starred review: “Insight and a fresh perspective on the culture wars.” •       I Am Somebody: Why Jesse Jackson Matters (Bloomsbury, 2020) — Masciotra's biography of the Reverend, discussed here for Jackson's decades of recompense after the 1984 Hymietown remark. •       Zygmunt Bauman — the Polish sociologist of liquid modernity, quoted in Exurbia Now, whose move from solidity to liquidity frames the episode's diagnosis of nostalgia. •       Antonio Gramsci — the Prison Notebooks passage on the interregnum, in both its translations: morbid symptoms and monsters. •       Masciotra's recent UnHerd essays — on why Democrats gave Graham Platner a free pass, on the party's luxury belief agenda, and on Stephen Colbert as the emblem of detached establishment liberalism. •       Bryan Stevenson — founder of the Equal Justice Initiative and the legacy sites memorializing slavery and lynching; the subject of Masciotra's forthcoming piece and, in his view, the closest thing 2026 has to a benevolent vision. About Keen On America Nobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

In 2018, Mariana Ramirez walked into the pit at Once On This Island as a sub and made history. She became the first female Mexican percussionist to ever perform on a Broadway show.Nobody handed her that moment. She built it.I first published this conversation in March of 2022, and it remains one of my favorites. Most of you weren't subscribed back then, so I'm bringing it back — the story is too good to leave in the archive.Who is Mariana Ramirez?Mariana is an NYC-based freelance percussionist who began her music studies at the National Conservatory of Mexico in Mexico City before earning her Bachelor of Music in Percussion at Rutgers University.That first Broadway sub gig at Once On This Island opened doors. She went on to sub Head Over Heels and Ain't Too Proud: The Life and Times of the Temptations, then hit the road holding the drums/percussion chair on the Once On This Island national tour. Off-Broadway, her credits include Merrily We Roll Along and Fiddler on the Roof in Yiddish, among many others. Today, she is one of just two female Mexican drummer/percussionists performing on Broadway.But her career stretches far beyond the pit.She has performed across Europe, Asia, and Mexico with Mexican traditional music bands, symphonic ensembles, chamber orchestras, and pop bands. You may have caught her on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, in the series Mozart in the Jungle, or at the NBC Universal Upfronts at Radio City Music Hall.She also founded Percussion Quartet Excelsis, which Jonathan Haas, head of the NYU Percussion Department, praised as one of the most innovative and exciting percussion ensembles of this era of chamber music. Excelsis has performed twice on NPR's From the Top, at the Percussive Arts Society New York Weekend of Percussion, Brooklyn Bound with Sō Percussion, Zeltsman Marimba Festival, and Tippet Rise Music Festival in Montana. The group is endorsed by Sabian Cymbals.As a symphonic percussionist, she has performed with the National Symphony of Mexico, Orquesta de Minería, the first all-women orchestra of Mexico, Dartmouth Symphony, South Florida Symphony, New England Ensemble, Fairfield Orchestra, and most recently with The Dessoff Choir, premiering works for choir and orchestra at Alice Tully Hall.Traditional Mexican music. Broadway pits. Symphony halls. Chamber ensembles. Television. That range is not an accident — it's the career.In this conversation, we talk about:* The Santana concert in Mexico City that made an 11-year-old girl decide, on the spot, what she wanted to do with her life* Her path from the National Conservatory of Mexico to Rutgers to New York* What it took to break into Broadway subbing — and what it meant to be the first* How versatility across genres and settings keeps a freelance career aliveAnd when you're done with this one, keep an eye on your inbox. Up next on the podcast: Spencer Inch. You won't want to miss that conversation.For the complete roadmap to building a career in theater, grab Broadway Bound and Beyond at broadwayboundbook.com.Broadway Bound and Beyond isn't theory. It's twenty-six years on Broadway broken down into what actually works: how auditions really get decided, how reputation gets built or destroyed, how money works in this business, why versatility keeps you employed, and what it takes to last decades instead of one season. If you want the full career picture, the hardcover is at broadwayboundbook.com.If subbing is specifically your way in, the book gets you the mindset and the etiquette, but the Broadway Sub Playbook goes further. It's the actual system: the four-week prep formula, the show-day routine, how to take notes that stick, how to handle a pit you've never sat in before. It's built for one job — getting you ready for that call when it comes — and it's the resource a lot of working subs wish they'd had before their first one.Grab both at signaturebrandworks.com.Clayton Craddock is the drummer for Cats: The Jellicle Ball on Broadway at the Broadhurst Theatre. He is also the founder of Broadway Drumming 101 and the author of Broadway Bound and Beyond: A Musician's Guide to Building a Theater Career.His Broadway credits include Memphis, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud, and Cats: The Jellicle Ball, with additional credits spanning tick, tick…BOOM!, The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical, and subbing on Rent, Motown, Evita, Avenue Q, and the Hadestown tour.Clayton has appeared on The View, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Today Show, and the Tony Awards.

Have you ever listened to a speaker share a deeply personal story ... and instead of feeling moved, you felt worried about them, a bit awkward and like the life had been sucked out of you? On the other side of the coin, you might have been in the room with a speaker who share the most harrowing story and yet when they've finished you feel moved, uplifted and energised. So what's the difference? In this episode, I explore what I believe is the secret to sharing emotional stories that create connection rather than discomfort, and why the most moving speakers aren't always the most emotional. If you've ever worried about sharing a personal story, or wondered why yours don't always land in the way you'd hoped, then this episode is for you. What you'll discover: • Why some emotional stories move an audience… while others leave them feeling awkward • The biggest mistake speakers make when sharing personal stories • Why speaking isn't acting ... and why that distinction matters • Why audiences don't need you to tell them how you felt • The hidden emotional layers inside every story • The simple questions that uncover the moments your audience will connect with most • Why behaviour is often more powerful than emotion words • How tiny details can create huge emotional impact • The storytelling principle comedians use that speakers can borrow • What an orchestra conductor can teach you about leading an audience's emotions • Why giving your audience space to make the connection themselves creates deeper engagement • Two brilliant examples of speakers who evoke emotion without becoming melodramatic • How to share deeply personal stories without overwhelming yourself, or your audience Enjoy!

Johnny Mac delivers a bonus rant about reports that Taylor Swift married Travis Kelce at Madison Square Garden with Adam Sandler officiating, citing coverage from The New York Times and other outlets. He mocks the celebrity spectacle, noting details like Austin Swift as man of honor, Jason Kelce as best man, and Sandler's purported marriage advice via Andy Reid to “keep kissing,” plus comments attributed to the AMC Theatres CEO, Joseph Kahn, and a critical Slate piece questioning Sandler as the choice. Mac speculates about how guest lists are shaped by Hollywood networking rather than real friendships, naming attendees such as Paul McCartney, Charlie Day, Conan O'Brien, Stephen Colbert, Seth Meyers, Donald Glover, Chris Rock, and Nikki Glaser.

This is an encore episode of 'Behind The Table' — new episodes return Monday, July 6. Alyssa Farah Griffin sits down with executive producer Brian Teta to break down what could be done to stop Trump's anti‑weaponization fund—and why she believes it could ultimately be challenged and blocked in the courts. She reflects on the end of an era with Stephen Colbert and explains why his cancellation may actually prove his influence is stronger than ever. Alyssa also discusses why it's possible to support certain policies, like Trump Rx, while still being a vocal critic of President Trump, saying, “I don't want Americans to keep hurting just to stick it to Donald Trump.” The conversation turns personal as Alyssa opens up about the mom guilt she experiences as a working mother and wraps with her evolving take on the ongoing 'Summer House' drama.

If you haven't seen Part 1 yet, start there first: https://youtu.be/jBuZ6d7O2esWhat happened to Christian humor?For centuries, Christians laughed, joked, mocked hypocrisy, and used satire to expose pride, corruption, and foolishness. But somewhere along the way, many believers became afraid to laugh.In Part 2 of this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb and Dr. Terry Lindvall explore the forgotten history of Christian humor—from medieval monks and the Feast of Fools to Martin Luther, G.K. Chesterton, and the long tradition of holy mockery.Why did Christians become so serious? Can satire be used faithfully? What's the difference between humor that heals and humor that harms?This conversation is insightful, hilarious, and surprisingly relevant for the modern church.

Stereo Embers The Podcast 0504: Jon Lampley ("The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, O.A.R.) by Alex Green Online

"Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen" has experienced a massive national ratings collapse since replacing "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on CBS. Since taking over the late-night time slot from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in late May, the panel show has struggled to find a national audience, sparking widespread debate about the future of network late night.

On today's show, Scoot "Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen" has experienced a massive national ratings collapse since replacing "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on CBS. Does it matter if the president tells the truth? President Trump has made questionable claims about the stock market and about alleged vandalism at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Are these harmless exaggerations, political salesmanship, or does the truth still matter when it comes from the White House? The gap between the informed and the uninformed keeps growing. So why do you think you are informed? Where do you get your news? How do you know it is reliable? And are you actually seeking information, or just looking for someone to confirm what you already believe? Scientists say our brains are being overwhelmed by the constant stream of bad news, from politics and crime to wars, storms, and everything else flashing across our phones. Do you feel overwhelmed by the news? Do you turn it off, talk it out, exercise, pray, drink, doomscroll, or something else?

"Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen" has experienced a massive national ratings collapse since replacing "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on CBS. Also, Scoot asks if you'd live in a haunted apartment.

Comics Unleashed with Byron Allen has experienced a massive national ratings collapse since taking over CBS's late night. Viewership has dropped by up to 85% to 87% compared to the final episodes of its predecessor, The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Despite the severe decline in viewers, CBS executives state the new programming is a financial win due to a unique leasing agreement. Former New Orleans City Councilman Jared Brossett was scheduled for a court appearance tied to his latest DWI allegation, reportedly his fourth. Do we know what happened in court and what should happen when a public official keeps facing the same kind of charge? At what point is this no longer just a personal problem but a public one?

On today's show: A Fox News article argues that some sports media outlets are trying to decide which American fans are allowed to cheer for Team USA at the World Cup. Is there a liberal bias in sports media, or is this just another example of every cultural moment getting dragged into politics? When you see World Cup coverage, do you think the media is celebrating America, judging America, or just looking for the easiest narrative? The U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6–3 that a former Rastafarian inmate cannot sue individual state prison officials for money damages after they forcibly shaved off his knee-length dreadlocks.

Most Christians read the Bible far too seriously.But what if Scripture contains far more humor, irony, satire, and laughter than we've been taught to see?In this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with humor scholar Dr. Terry Lindvall to explore the hidden comedy of the Bible—from Sarah's laughter and Noah's drunkenness to Jewish humor, biblical irony, and the surprising ways God uses humor throughout Scripture.Why do we miss so much of the Bible's humor?

Career / Process You broke in around 2006, and you're now pushing close to two decades in comics. How has your approach to storytelling changed from those early years to now? You've been at this for nearly 20 years at this point. What's something you understand about comics today that you wish you knew when you started? You're writing across multiple major franchises right now. How do you shift your voice between something like Superman, Iron Man, and G.I. Joe? On top of all this, you wrote a story in Creepshow Vol. 4 #5 titled Artificial Ignorance. Was that a story you had in a drawer, or…how did that come to be? Superman / Superboy-Prime Superboy-Prime has always been a volatile character, but here he feels almost desperate to prove himself. How do you balance his edge with making him someone readers want to follow? With Manchester Black entering the picture, what excites you about putting those two characters in conflict specifically? Any Superman elements/tropes you want to touch? Iron Man You've said Tony Stark is one of your favorite characters. What's something about Tony that you feel hasn't been explored enough in past runs? Madame Masque and A.I.M. feel like they're operating at a higher level here. What makes them the right villains for this phase of the story? Universal Monsters: Blood of the Wolf Man Do you have a favorite Universal Monsters adaptation? Do you have any favorite werewolf stories? This feels like a very grounded, almost psychological take on the Wolf Man. What drew you to that angle? Is the when of this story important to the overall experience? What makes the Wolf Man a character worth revisiting right now? Rapid Fire Question Round (Stolen from Stephen Colbert so that a guest is “known”): Best sandwich?

Stephen Colbert's ‘Late Show' ended last night after 11 years. He spoke with Terry Gross in 2016 shortly after he took over from David Letterman. Before that, Colbert played a conservative persona in the vein of Bill O'Reilly on ‘The Colbert Report.' When he started ‘The Late Show,' out of character, he said, “I knew it would be a little bit of a public discovery. It's somebody else's joke, but life is like learning to play the violin in public. You don't know what you're doing until you do it.”Also we remember Massachusetts Congressman Barney Frank, who died this week at age 86. The influential Democrat helped normalize being openly gay in public office. He spoke with Terry Gross in 2015.Also, John Powers reviews the horror-comedy Apple TV series ‘Widow's Bay.'

Rose Byrne starred in big box office comedies like ‘Bridesmaids' and ‘Neighbors,' and, more recently, the indie film ‘If I Had Legs I'd Kick You,' which kind of defies genre. It's about a woman trying to care of her sick daughter while her life is unraveling. “In many ways, it tapped into the monster within and the fear of being a parent and the horror of being a parent – and some of the joy, too.” Her raw performance won a Golden Globe and an Oscar nomination this year. Now Byrne is nominated for a Tony for her performance in a revival of Noël Coward's play ‘Fallen Angels.' She spoke with producer Ann Marie Baldonado. Later, TV critic Davie Bianculli reflects on the end of ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert.' The final episode airs tonight. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
