Can you believe that for half a century student bars the length and breadth of the land have resounded to the excruciating cries of "Nii!"? Yes, the film the Spanish call 'The Knights of the Square Table and Their Crazy Followers' turns 50 and to mark the occasion here's a bonus episode with Tyler and writer, podcaster & performer Tom Salinsky in which they talk at length about the film. Tom thinks that Life of Brian has more to say but Monty Python and the Holy Grail is the most consistently funny of their films, with barely a moment left gagless, from the inspired opening titles to the demonic camp of Tim the Enchanter. They discuss highlights such as the cartoonish violence of the King Arthur vs Black Knight sequence; Brave Sir Robin and his minstrel Neil Innes; Gilliam the gatekeeper of the Bridge of Death (later rented out to William Friedkin for Sorcerer?); Dennis the mud-ridden firebrand decrying systems of government; Carole Cleveland as Zoot, Mistress of Castle Anthrax; the weakly insipid Prince Herbert and his overbearing dad; the witch trial; Brother Maynard and the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch and, of course, Frank the TV historian who suffers a violent slaying.Tom also talks of his love for the LP and compares the film to the script book – whither Brian the Wild from the final cut? – and reveals that parts of the original script were later repurposed for the fourth series of Monty Python. He also touches on Spamalot and springing from that there's an interesting overview of the recent Dr Strangelove production starring Steve Coogan.Also: the coconuts for horses gag – A Show Called Fred got there first! So that ticks the box marked 'Goon Content'!Tom is co-host of Best Pick podcast: https://bestpickpod.com/

I november 2023 pratades det mycket om att ett tredje världskrig kunde vara nära anstående och för att få reda mer om det bjöd vi in Sebastian van Baalen för att få A-kursen i freds- och konfliktkunskap. Då kunde Sebastian, som är forskare på Institutionen för freds- och konfliktforskning vid Uppsala universitet, det största orosmolnet på horisonten. Nämligen att Donald Trump skulle bli återvald till USAs president. Nu har denna värsta farhåga besannats och vi är nyfikna på vad det kommer göra med säkerhetsläget i världen. Nästa vecka är Sebastian tillbaka för att ge oss en uppföljning med A-kursen i den nya världsordningen. För de som missat det första avsnittet med Sebastian eller som bara viill fräscha upp minnet om vad som sas då kommer det här som en repris.Klipp och musik:SVT Nöjesmaskinen - Fred på jordenAftonbladet TV - Krigsrapporten 28 april 2022P1 Ekot i OdessaBiden says world must 'strive to prevent' World War III1945 Harry Truman Announces Victory Over Germany WWIIThe Cure - World WarDr. Strangelove eller: Hur jag slutade ängslas och lärde mig älska bomben (1964)Bush Declares War on TerrorDN, Trump i natt- Jag kan förhindra tredje världskrigetPlastic Ono Band - Give peace a chancemail: akursenpodd@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

"IT'S FATAL: WHAT IS FILM NOIR?" (PART III) (080) 3/24/2025 Welcome to the third and final installment of our series on Film Noir. As we have previously discussed the technical elements of noir and met the typical character's of noir, we will now take a look at the creative aspects of the genre that help create that special brand of dark, sexy, deadly movies. We'll discuss dialogue, and clever devices like voice overs, flashbacks, and dream sequences that enhance these dark, moody films. We'll also look at the fatalistic themes that reigned supreme throughout the genre.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: Film Noir (2017), by Alian Silver & James Ursini; Into the Darkness: The Hidden World of Film Noir 1941-1959 (2016), by Mark A.

In this month's instalment of our Mike Nichols marathon, we are putting our thinking caps on as we discuss his first official box office disappointment, which is the adaptation of Joseph Heller's irreverent post-war novel Catch-22. You will hear us talk about how this movie came together with its lavish production, editing woes and having to deal with Orson Welles on set, how it was a truly Herculean attempt at filming the unfilmable and how despite all the script changes and diversions from the novel the author still liked the output. We also talk about how Altman's MASH beat Nichols to the punch and how Kubrick's Dr Strangelove and 2001 gave him permission to think big, how the movie might be a dream and how it is equally funny as it is frightening.

--- Outgoing GovEx Executive Director Amy Edwards Holmes reflects on a momentous year for cities and data--- While the characters in Dr. Strangelove, referenced in the title of this episode, grappled with the invention of the atomic bomb, cities in recent years have only tentatively explored the potential of artificial intelligence to benefit residents.

As Holmes prepares to move on, she also discusses the progress GovEx has made in recent years and the crucial work that lies ahead.--- Learn more about GovEx!--- Fill out our listener survey!

Nick and Angela welcome their first guest of series 7 to Dish HQ. Legendary actor, comedian, writer and producer Steve Coogan was born in Lancashire. His career began on Spitting Image in the 80s, and he is most celebrated for his portrayal of the iconic Alan Partridge. He has earned critical acclaim for roles in Philomena, Stan & Ollie and The Reckoning, in which he played Jimmy Savile, and is back on the West End stage after a 28-year hiatus for a sold-out run of Dr Strangelove. His new Channel 4 drama, Brian and Maggie, is out now. Nick mixes a non-alcoholic Mother Root for Steve, while Angela prepares one his favourite meals, a potato, cheese & onion pie. The experts at Waitrose pair this with a Le Arenarie Vermentino di Gallura. For dessert, our trio tuck into a rhubarb & pear crumble. Steve Coogan gives some hilarious insights into his cult show The Trip with Rob Brydon, sharing a great story about Anna Wintour. He talks Alan Partridge, of course, and weighs in on the best way to heat baked beans.

Send us a textOn the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are on an unstoppable quest to get our gold back from the worst scum imaginable. We watched the 2022 film from Jalmari Helander, Sisu.What do you get when you cross a crapload of found gold, a bunch of Nazi bastards, and what could rightly be called the Finnish Superman? You get one of the bloodiest, revengiest films ever made.There's a proverb that revenge is a dish best served cold. When you're in the far northern part of Finland, where temperatures can plummet down to -60º F (around -50º C), then the only temperature revenge can be served is freaking freezing.Let this film be a lesson to us all. If you ever happen to meet a grizzled looking Finlander who's on a determined trek, then stay the hell away from them. Seriously.

REMEMBER GENERAL JACK D. Ripper, the character from the 1964 movie “Dr. Strangelove; or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb”? Can you imagine what might have happened if General Ripper had been elected governor? For Oregonians, just a few years ago, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch. In 1934, voters elected a retired major general named Charles Henry Martin — known to the soldiers assigned to his care during the First World War as “Old Iron Pants.” And although Martin isn't known to have gone on any anti-fluoridation rants or spluttered about “precious bodily fluids,” his political style was more than a little reminiscent of Ripper's … and, of course, it's not a work of fiction. “If things come to a crisis,” he wrote to a sympathetic fellow military man in 1937, while discussing the likelihood of a Communist takeover in America, “there are enough strong men left in the country to handle it properly. … The Italians wouldn't submit; they organized their blackshirts. The Germans wouldn't submit, so they had their brownshirts and Hitler. I don't believe Americans will submit.” Left unmentioned in this remark was any suggestion for who might play the role of the American “strong man” analogous to Mussolini or Hitler, but it seemed clear that he felt himself to be up to the challenge if called upon to do so.

How do we go from a countdown to the end in a quest for world peace to protecting our fluids from Russians and women? Why is Peter Sellers so many guys? Are you just as capable of being as sorry as I am, Dmitri?    Content warnings for Red Alert include: violence, bombings, suicide, death, threat of doom, 60's-standard outlooks on the world.   Content warnings for Dr. Strangelove include: violence, bombings, suicide, death, threat of doom, so much horniness, one goofy Nazi, and a Tim Robinson lookalike.   The articles Emma references in this episode can be found here: https://www.bbc.com/culture/article/20240129-dr-strangelove-at-60-the-mystery-behind-kubricks-cold-war-masterpiece https://collider.com/stanley-kubrick-dr-strangelove-original-story/ https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/dr-strangelove-stanley-kubrick-making-of-1235808181/   You can find Emma on twitter @ematsca and the show @UnselectPod.

A new nuclear arms race is underway. Almost all the landmark treaties of the Cold War and post-Cold War period restricting the U.S. and Russian arsenals are no longer in effect, having been abrogated or abandoned. China is arming. Other states may be interested in joining the nuclear club, despite the strictures of the non-proliferation treaty of 1968. In this episode, nuclear weapons expert Joe Cirincione, who writes Strategy & History on Substack, discusses the "arms control extinction" and the potential consequences of President-elect Trump's proposals, as stated in Project 2025, to spend trillions in building up America's arsenal.  Further reading: The Arms Control Extinction by Joseph Cirincione, Strategy & History on Substack

To wrap up the year, Have You Ever Seen episode #636 reviews our first Peter Sellers movie in over 10 years. He was flawlessly funny in Dr. Strangelove (which is the other film we reviewed) and he's note-perfect in Being There too. Hal Ashby had a very-underrated run of greatness in the '70s, directing powerful dramas like Coming Home, but also making truly funny-yet-cynical yuck-fests like Shampoo and this. In Being There, Sellers plays an illiterate gardener who supposedly-intelligent people believe is the wisest man they know. Melvyn Douglas won an Oscar playing a dupe who projects so much onto this blank slate, partly because he's a well-dressed, pleasant, older man. The film is also prescient about presidential politics, with Sellers spouting inoffensive platitudes...and then there's that infamous Jesus imagery at the end. It's quite a ride. So we hope you like to listen as much as Chance/Chauncey likes to watch as the Ellises bid you Happy New Year and present a gab about Being There.

"FORGOTTEN LEADING LADIES FROM THE GOLDEN AGE OF HOLLYWOOD" - 11/18/2024 A friend of mine once said that in Hollywood the toilet flushes every seven years. Meaning after about seven years, no one remembers who you are. Whether that's true or not, there are many classic film stars who were once popular, who have faded away into obscurity. We covered men a few months go, and now we are giving the ladies their due. Join us as we talk about four fabulous actresses who deserve to be remembered — LIZABETH SCOTT, MARIE WINDSOR, ELLA RAINES, and GERALDINE FITZGERALD.  SHOW NOTES:  Sources: “Biography of Lizabeth Scott,” August 1951, Paramount Pictures; “Liz Scott Slaps Libel Suit on Confidential Mag,” July 26, 1955, Variety; “Cut Actress Lizabeth Scott Out of Texan's Will,” May 12, 1971, Variety; "Geraldine's Long Journey,” June 13, 1971, New York Times; “Lizabeth Scott,” November 1971, by Don Stanke, Film Fan Magazine; Merv Griffin Interview with Geraldine Fitzgerald, 1977; Arlene Francis Interview with Geraldine Fitzgerald, 1985; Katie Kelly Interview with Geraldine Fitzgerald, 1985; “The Alluring Lizabeth Scott,” February 1993, by David M.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 64: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: Yeah, I heard it too. I heard him he "shouldn't have left" the White House when his term ended. And I heard him say AT his rally that he wouldn't mind people shooting at the reporters COVERING his rally. And I guess it's shocking. Except he's been saying these things (a little more coded) since 2015, and he said the shooting thing about Liz Cheney last Thursday night. And after all he is going through what the shrinks call “disinhibition” AT the rallies where he loses all sense of what he should say in private not public. But that's not what got me. I heard something I have never heard before. WHEN he said he wouldn't mind people shooting the "fake news," he said he wouldn't mind them shooting THROUGH "the fake news" - THROUGH it - AT him. Doesn't that sound kind of… what's the word? Suicidal? Plus: I understand that we are inside the 48 hour bubble before the election and the pressure is like 887 Atmospheric Units and our rage against this creature and his cult that wants to burn this country to the ground – burn this world to the ground – and our amazement that there is ANYBODY voting for him – that RAGE is at unbearable levels – but… didn't he sound kinda dead yesterday? At one point he was inaudible. At another, in North Carolina, he thought he was in Pennsylvania. Throughout, he sounded exactly like Hal the Computer in the movie “2001” when they unplugged him. PRACTICALLY SPEAKING on the eve of the election, the polls continue to support a Harris victory (size TBD) and this shocking poll where she's up by 3 in Iowa hides an even more shocking number (she's ahead by 20 among women in the whitest part of the midwest). And the reaction to the pollster who published this 21 point swing from June tells you all you need to know about polling. They have previously insisted Ann Selser was an immortal. Now they're saying she's making the rest of them look bad by not tailoring her poll to fit their narrative. B-Block (30:33) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: A Trumpist has vowed to "castrate himself on camera" if Harris wins Iowa (if you're a Trumpist, haven't you already castrated yourself?). Chris Cillizza 2024 mocks everybody who didn't buy the conventional wisdom about the vice presidency (evidently including Chris Cillizza 2020, who had disproved it), and courtesy Tim Alberta in The Atlantic, we find a new reason to hate Trump. This is the real reason he's so mad Biden dropped out. Trump thought he had the perfect nickname for the President - and it's appalling. C-Block (37:48) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: I call it The Annual Day I Get Trapped Inside My Home Day. You know it - and may have seen it on TV yesterday - as "The New York City Marathon."  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
