Happy Madison Productions is now cranking out movies starring two generations of Sandlers: paterfamilias Adam and daughters Sadie and Sunny. Earlier this year, Sadie starred in Netflix’s college-set Roommates, and now it’s Sunny’s turn in Don’t Say Good Luck, a tear-jerker that pairs family drama with high school musical drama. And it’s a pairing that Matt and Jordan agree works pretty well, thanks to the director Julia Hart (Fast Color, I’m Your Woman), solid work from Sandler, and a great performance by Melanie Lynskey as Sunny’s mom. Plus, a “Nepo Baby” streaming rec from Matt, and one from Jordan for a forgotten Oscar-winning Canadian film from the early 2000s. And Matt hosts another round of Portmanteau-to-Toe.

Bill believes that the affordability issues in the USA could be solved if the war in the Middle East ends. The Dems go to the economic underdog to portray themselves. Making life hard for the healthcare companies and oil companies by forcing them to lower prices for consumers may be the key; however, how easy is that? President Trump's personality could be a major reason that socialism is happening nowadays.

It's Arthouse Tuesday on a Friday, with some truly great new films. Here's what we reviewed on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day: IT ENDS (NO Spoilers!): It's been such a great year for indie horror movies from exciting, young directors, and "It Ends" continues that trend. The debut feature from writer-director Alex Ullom finds four friends stuck in a car on a seemingly endless road, post-college. This is a non-spoiler review, because we want you to experience this for yourself, but join us at Noon Pacific time on Tuesday, Sept. 8 for a LIVE spoiler chat at our YouTube channel. In theaters. THE RIVALS OF AMZIAH KING: It's a terrible title for one of the best films we've seen all year. Matthew McConaughey is mesmerizing as a beekeeper and musician in small-town Oklahoma. Angelina LookingGlass is a tremendous find as the former foster daughter who comes back into his life. The less you know going into Andrew Patterson's film, the better. In theaters, but not for long, so look for it near you. DON'T SAY GOOD LUCK: Sunny Sandler is charming in this coming-of-age dramedy from director and co-writer Julia Hart ("Fast Color"). She plays a teenager who gets the lead in her high school production of "Waitress: The Musical" just as her mother's cancer returns. Melanie Lynskey, Stephanie Beatriz and Steve Buscemi lead the strong ensemble cast. Streaming now on Netflix. MOVIE NEWS LIVE! Always a lot to talk about, even at the end of summer, including the death of Hayden Panettiere, "Dune: Part Three" tickets, D23 announcements, the latest milestone for "The Odyssey" and more. We won't be here the next couple Fridays, but join us again for our movie news livestream on Sept. 11. We're taking the end of summer off, but we have some goodies stockpiled for you. We'd never abandon you completely! Thanks for starting your weekend with us. Subscribe to Christy's Saturday Matinee newsletter: https://christylemire.beehiiv.com/

Two years after its surprising first season, X-Men '97 returns to Disney Plus as the series dives straight into what was teased in the 2024 finale: Apocalypse. Can the show follow up its lean, gangbusters debut season with something just as worthwhile? Or will the loss of creator and writer Beau DeMayo spell trouble for this lore-heavy animated series? We discuss the eleventh hour changes, a show without its steward, and what we thought of X-Men '97's turbulent storylines.

A podcast about a podcast about one of the strangest sports scandals of the modern era. Brian Beckner welcomes back Reality Steve and Jason Stewart for a special Baller Lifestyle Podcast crossover dedicated to the ESPN 30 for 30 podcast The Betrayal of Shohei Ohtani. The guys go deep on the unbelievable story of Ippéi Mizuhara, Shohei Ohtani's former interpreter and trusted intermediary, who was ultimately accused of stealing approximately $17 million from Ohtani while accumulating enormous gambling debts. The central question: Did Shohei Ohtani really know nothing about it? Coming into the podcast, the guys had very different theories. Reality Steve was torn between the possibility that Mizuhara initially told the truth and the possibility that Ohtani genuinely had no idea what was happening. Jason Stewart entered firmly in the conspiracy/fall-guy camp. Brian was somewhere in between. After listening to the full story, however, the evidence presented in the 30 for 30 dramatically changed the conversation. The guys examine the three major possibilities surrounding the scandal: Ohtani was secretly involved in the gambling. Mizuhara gambled, lost millions, and Ohtani knowingly bailed him out. Mizuhara was secretly stealing from Ohtani, while Ohtani had absolutely no idea. The discussion dives into the evidence supporting the third scenario — including the enormous volume of communications investigators reviewed without finding evidence of gambling conversations between Ohtani and Mizuhara. But the guys aren't willing to completely let Ohtani off the hook. How can one of the richest and most famous athletes on Earth fail to notice $17 million disappearing from his own bank account? The answer may have more to do with Ohtani's unusual lifestyle, his dependence on other people, his limited English-language communication, and his extraordinary level of wealth than most people realize. The guys also explore Mizuhara's increasingly bizarre behavior, including his deception about his background, his relationship with Ohtani, his interactions with bookmaker Mathew Boyer, the enormous volume of bets placed, and the shocking story involving Ohtani's money and dental work. They also question why Boyer received a dramatically shorter sentence than Mizuhara and discuss how federal cooperation agreements can change the outcome of criminal cases. And then there's the biggest "what if?" of all: What happens if the federal government never catches Boyer? Would Mizuhara still be stealing from Ohtani today? The episode also explores one of the most revealing details from the documentary: Ohtani's description of Mizuhara not necessarily as a best friend, but as a business partner. That distinction changes the entire way the relationship can be viewed. Approximate Timestamps Note: The uploaded source is a transcript rather than an audio file, so these are suggested editorial timestamps based on the sequence and relative length of the discussion. 00:00 — Welcome to the Special Bonus Episode Brian introduces the special Baller Lifestyle Podcast episode. Reality Steve joins the show. Jason Stewart returns as the "Stu Gatz's favorite producer." Why this episode is different from the normal Baller Lifestyle format. 03:00 — The First-Ever Baller Lifestyle / Reality Steve Crossover Reality Steve explains why he wanted the episode on his own feed. The guys joke about doing a "podcast about a podcast." Why the Shohei Ohtani story was perfect for a baseball-focused crossover. 06:00 — What Did Everyone Believe Before Listening? Brian's initial impression of Ippéi Mizuhara. Reality Steve's three possible theories. Was Ohtani gambling? Did Ohtani knowingly pay Mizuhara's gambling debts? Or was Mizuhara secretly stealing from him? 10:00 — The $17 Million Question How does someone steal approximately $17 million from one of the world's richest athletes? Why Ohtani may genuinely not have noticed. Ohtani's extraordinary wealth and unusual lifestyle. The idea that he may have essentially never needed to monitor his own bank accounts. 14:00 — Jason Stewart's Fall-Guy Theory Why Jason initially believed Mizuhara was taking the fall. Why the conspiracy theory was more entertaining than the actual explanation. Comparisons to other famous sports scandals. Why the evidence eventually changed Jason's mind. 18:00 — 19,000 Bets and $325 Million in Action The staggering volume of Mizuhara's gambling. More than $300 million in total bets. Approximately $142 million in winning bets. Approximately $182.9 million in losing bets. The resulting roughly $41 million net gambling loss. How someone could gamble at that scale and continue getting credit. 23:00 — The Bookmaker Mathew Boyer Reality Steve explains the betting numbers. Why Boyer kept increasing Mizuhara's credit. The importance of Mizuhara's connection to Ohtani. How much did Boyer actually know about his client's finances? The enormous amount of money moving through the operation. 27:00 — The $500-a-Week Problem Mizuhara's claims about how much Ohtani paid him. Why the guys immediately questioned the number. What Mizuhara actually did for Ohtani on a daily basis. Driver, personal assistant, translator, errands and more. Why the story didn't seem to add up. 31:00 — The FBI Investigation What federal investigators actually examined. Thousands of pages of communications. The surprising absence of gambling conversations between Ohtani and Mizuhara. Why that evidence dramatically changed the guys' opinions. 35:00 — Was Shohei Really Completely Clueless? Jason explains why he still had doubts. Why the absence of gambling conversations initially seemed suspicious. Could Ohtani have used Mizuhara as a buffer? Why the guys ultimately lean toward Ohtani being unaware. 39:00 — Ohtani's Extraordinary Dependence on Other People Ohtani's limited English. His dependence on agents, bankers, interpreters and other representatives. Why the guys think Ohtani may have been unusually insulated from everyday life. The theory that Ohtani has simply never had to handle normal financial responsibilities. 43:00 — The Dental Work Scam The shocking $60,000 dental story. Mizuhara receives money for dental treatment. What allegedly happened to the money. How the guys view this as another example of Mizuhara's willingness to exploit Ohtani. 47:00 — What If the FBI Never Caught Boyer? How the entire scandal came to light. The federal investigation was focused on Boyer. What could have happened if investigators never uncovered the connection to Ohtani? Would Mizuhara still be stealing from Ohtani? Reality Steve's theory that Ohtani might eventually have discovered everything privately. 51:00 — The Original Story Mizuhara Told ESPN Mizuhara initially claimed Ohtani knew about his gambling. The original explanation for the money transfers. Why Mizuhara's story completely changed. How Ohtani reportedly learned about the allegations. 55:00 — The South Korea Team Meeting Ohtani's shocking position as the last person to understand what was happening. Mizuhara's explanation of what he had told the team. Ohtani asking what had been said. The surreal nature of the situation. 59:00 — Could Ohtani Have Been Suspended? Reality Steve poses the hypothetical: What if the original story had been true? What if Ohtani knowingly paid off Mizuhara's illegal gambling debt? What would Major League Baseball have done? The difference between gambling himself and helping a friend pay a debt. Pete Rose and the Astros enter the discussion. 1:05:00 — MLB, Gambling & the Changing Sports Landscape How professional sports' relationship with gambling has changed. Pete Rose's precedent. The Astros' cheating scandal. Modern sports betting controversies. Why punishment for gambling-related behavior has become increasingly complicated. 1:10:00 — Was Mizuhara Really Ohtani's Best Friend? The guys challenge the public perception of their relationship. Ohtani reportedly referring to Mizuhara more as a business partner than a close friend. How Mizuhara may have cultivated the image that they were essentially brothers. Ohtani's language barrier and how it affected that perception. 1:15:00 — Mizuhara's Sentencing vs. Boyer's Mizuhara receives 57 months. Boyer receives only five months. Why the sentencing disparity surprises the guys. Federal cooperation agreements. The guys compare Boyer's situation to other famous criminal cases. 1:20:00 — What Does Boyer Know? Boyer's claims about his gambling operation. His alleged connections to major sports figures. Why the guys wonder who else might have been betting with him. The unanswered question of how much information Boyer actually possesses. 1:24:00 — Mizuhara's Future in Japan Mizuhara's Japanese citizenship. Why he may ultimately be deported. The implications of returning to Japan after stealing from Ohtani. The guys speculate about what his life could look like after prison. 1:28:00 — Ohtani's Incredible Ability to Compartmentalize The scandal breaking right around Opening Day. Ohtani's ability to perform despite the controversy. His historic 2024 season. Winning the World Series while the scandal surrounded him. How remarkable his focus was. 1:33:00 — Brian's Ohtani Hot Take The guys discuss Ohtani's current performance. Brian insists on consistency. The conversation turns to international baseball and MLB's overseas strategy. 1:37:00 — Should MLB Start the Season Overseas? The guys revisit MLB's decision to open the season in Korea. Why Brian thinks regular-season games should begin in the United States. Growing baseball internationally versus inconveniencing American viewers. Why exhibition games might accomplish the same goal. 1:42:00 — NFL Games Overseas The NFL's increasingly aggressive international strategy. Games in Australia and other international locations.

Streaming and unusual kickoff times. 1:46:00 — Reality Steve's NFL Survivor Pool Reality Steve discusses his 2026 NFL Survivor Pool. Entry fee and contest structure.

Jason's memories of Majerus. The legendary Krispy Kreme story. A brief detour into Majerus lore. 2:01:00 — Final Thoughts on The Betrayal of Shohei Ohtani The guys recap what they learned. Why the 30 for 30 podcast changed their opinions. Why Mizuhara increasingly appears to have acted alone. Why Ohtani's financial naivete remains the most unbelievable part of the story. The unanswered questions that remain. 2:04:00 — Wrap-Up Brian thanks Reality Steve and Jason Stewart. Discussion of doing another crossover episode. Final plugs and sign-off. TBLS. Key Takeaways The Three Theories The episode revolves around three possible explanations for the scandal: Ohtani was secretly gambling himself. Ohtani knew Mizuhara was gambling and knowingly paid his debts. Mizuhara secretly stole from Ohtani without his knowledge. After reviewing the evidence presented in the ESPN podcast, the panel largely moves toward the third explanation. The Scale of the Gambling Mizuhara's gambling activity was enormous: Roughly 19,000 bets Approximately $325 million in total wagers About $142 million in winning bets About $182.9 million in losing bets Roughly $41 million net losses The scale of the operation becomes one of the most astonishing aspects of the entire story. ️ The Communication Evidence One of the most important points discussed is the federal investigation's review of thousands of pages of communications between Ohtani and Mizuhara. The guys focus heavily on the fact that the investigation reportedly did not uncover conversations between the two directly discussing gambling. For Jason in particular, this becomes a major reason to reconsider the original fall-guy theory. How Could Ohtani Not Know? The panel's explanation is that Ohtani's extraordinary wealth and insulated lifestyle may have made it possible for him to remain completely unaware of the missing money. The guys discuss how Ohtani delegated virtually every aspect of his day-to-day life to other people — making Mizuhara's position of trust extraordinarily powerful. Mizuhara's Deception The episode portrays Mizuhara as someone who repeatedly manipulated people around him, fabricated elements of his background and cultivated a much closer public relationship with Ohtani than Ohtani himself may have considered accurate. The guys particularly focus on the contrast between the public perception of them as best friends and Ohtani's description of Mizuhara as more of a business partner. ️ The Sentencing Question Another major unanswered question is why Mizuhara received a dramatically longer sentence than bookmaker Mathew Boyer. The guys discuss how cooperation with federal investigators can produce dramatically different sentencing outcomes — and speculate about what information Boyer may have provided. The Biggest "What If?" The biggest hypothetical of the episode: What if the federal government never investigated Boyer? The guys debate whether Mizuhara would have continued stealing from Ohtani until he eventually ran out of money, got caught by Ohtani himself, or somehow managed to keep the scheme going. Most Shocking Moments Approximately $17 million allegedly stolen from Shohei Ohtani. Nearly 19,000 gambling bets. Approximately $325 million wagered. Mizuhara's reported losses exceeding $40 million. The absence of gambling discussions in thousands of pages of communications between Ohtani and Mizuhara. Ohtani allegedly being the last person to learn what Mizuhara had told the Dodgers. The bizarre $60,000 dental-work story. Mizuhara's original claim that Ohtani knowingly paid his gambling debts. The dramatic reversal of that story. Mizuhara receiving 57 months compared with Boyer's five months. The possibility that Ohtani genuinely never noticed millions disappearing from his accounts. Ohtani's ability to produce an historic season while the scandal exploded around him.

Science, energy, AI, and the Canada versus U.S. policy split We cover a wide-ranging roundup that starts with technical streaming headaches and then moves into a much bigger theme: how technology, energy, and policy are shaping the future. The conversation contrasts U.S. and Canadian approaches to science, industry, and regulation, while also touching on AI, fusion, nuclear power, law enforcement, media bias, and the dairy supply system in Canada. Darren Grimes- Drives the opening banter, frames the show updates, and reacts to the clips and arguments throughout Graham Dunlop- Leads the main commentary on science policy, energy, AI, Canada's regulatory posture, and the dairy cartel segment Main topics Streaming and podcasting tech frustrations Science, energy, AI, and industrial policy Canada's regulatory model versus U.S. reindustrialization Law enforcement, surveillance, and power abuse Canadian dairy supply management and cartel-like pricing Key topics They pivot into a bigger warning about AI, law enforcement, and bureaucracy, arguing that technology can either improve systems or turn them into hard-to-escape loops when no human can intervene. Graham compares official U.S. science and technology priorities with Canada's official policy framing, arguing that the U.S. is focusing on innovation, industrial rebuilding, and AI readiness while Canada remains fixated on net zero and carbon policy. They highlight U.S. policy language about merit-based science, faster grants, less bureaucracy, and rebuilding the link between research and manufacturing, presenting it as a serious attempt at reindustrialization. The episode also touches on fusion and nuclear energy, including DOE messaging about fusion energy, national fusion roadmaps, and the push for faster commercialization. Graham argues that energy abundance is essential for human progress and points to U.S. moves to expand oil, gas, coal, and nuclear investment as evidence of a more pragmatic industrial strategy. The conversation turns to surveillance and policing after a clip about a Colorado woman allegedly being accused of theft based on flawed camera data and license plate interpretation, raising concerns about digital evidence and presumption of guilt. Later, Graham walks through criticism of Canada's dairy supply management system, explaining quota, asset value, taxpayer compensation, and why critics call it cartel-like. The hosts close with broader commentary on censorship, public trust, media framing, and the idea that official narratives often lag behind reality.

Anika Jackson sat down with Mark Williams, founder of NUUX Design Studios, to explore why so many businesses keep UX design and marketing completely isolated—and how bridging that gap can make or break a brand. Streaming live from Madrid, Spain, Mark shared his unexpected journey from a pre-med neuroscience and psychology major to leading a remote design agency working with enterprise clients. The conversation offered a look into how founders can use modern AI workflows to bring ideas to life without massive budgets. In This Episode The Pre-Med Pivot: Why Mark walked away from the MCAT, research labs, and a medical track during lockdown to jump into advertising and UX design. The UX-Marketing Disconnect: Why sending traffic to a broken website (or designing a great website with no traffic strategy) kills conversions. Moving Beyond Blind Redesigns: Why looking at data, heat maps, and user sessions matters more than guessing solutions with AI. The Remote Agency Model: Managing a global team across time zones with a startup hustle mindset. AI-Native Workflows: Using tools like Claude Cowork, Motion, and voice dictation to automate tasks and build foundational design systems faster. The Imposter Syndrome Reality: Relying on the grounded support of friends and family when making massive life leaps. Timestamps 00:00 Introduction: Building in parallel with modern AI tools 01:09 Meet Mark Williams from Madrid, Spain: Celebrating the World Cup energy 03:13 From Pre-Med Psychology and Neuroscience to UX Design 07:05 Why UX and Marketing need to talk to each other 08:35 Where enterprise teams and marketers get design wrong 10:48 Case study: Restructuring and improving conversion rates for auto insurance brands Amax and Alpha 13:16 Balancing the need for speed with foundational quality in an AI era 16:58 Taking the leap from agency employee to starting NUUX Design Studios in LA 18:44 Building a global, remote team based on capability over location 21:54 What small businesses and SMBs can learn from enterprise workflows 23:11 Mark's favorite AI tools: Claude Cowork, Motion, and voice dictation workflows 26:52 Design trends: Are we making a mistake skipping mid-fidelity wireframes? 29:11 Dealing with imposter syndrome and the support of family 32:37 Expanding NUUX Design Studios to compete with the industry giants 34:48 Maya Angelou, belonging, and finding your footing anywhere in the world Key Insights & Takeaways Insight 1: UX and Marketing Cannot Live in Isolation Mark points out a critical flaw in many companies: marketing teams send traffic to web experiences without checking if they work, while design teams focus purely on aesthetics without looking at the business goals. True conversion happens when both sectors communicate constantly. If your landing page experience is broken, all the ad spend in the world won't save it. Insight 2: Data Tells You What Is Happening, Not Why Many teams see a drop in a metric and immediately prescribe a complex redesign or blindly prompt an AI tool for a new layout. Mark emphasizes that real optimization requires looking deeper at heat maps, user session recordings, and heuristics to understand user behavior before making targeted changes. Insight 3: Leverage AI to Move Faster, But Keep the Foundation Founders today don't need massive budgets to bring ideas to life. By utilizing AI agents and workflows (like Claude Cowork or automated task planners), lean teams can move at lightning speed. However, for enterprise stability, building a strong, consistent brand design system once prevents fragmented, chaotic user experiences down the line. Insight 4: Hiring for the Startup Hustle Mindset When running a remote, global agency, location doesn't matter nearly as much as execution. Mark looks for team members who share an entrepreneurial drive—people who take ownership, get the work done under any circumstance, and keep the client experience human, approachable, and deeply collaborative. Insight 5: You Are More Capable Than You Think The barrier to entry for building a business or bringing a creative vision to life has never been lower. Armed with modern digital tools and the courage to take risks—whether moving across the country to LA or relocating abroad to Madrid—founders can parallel-track multiple projects and accomplish far more than previous generations could.

With a background in psychology and neuroscience from his pre-med days, Mark brings a deeply human-centric, analytical approach to user experience design, bridging the crucial gap between digital marketing and high-converting web interfaces.

Episode 600. On August 21st the Modern Warfare 4 early access beta, the WARDOGS closed beta, and Call of Duty NEXT all land on the same day — and the two games are asking for wildly different amounts of money. We go through everything Activision is cramming into the MW4 beta: a playable campaign mission called Entrenched, six multiplayer maps, the return of Ground War, and a brand new Warzone Resurgence map called Zodiac. Then we put odds on whether any of it actually works over a single weekend. Spoiler: 20%. Omnimovement is gone. We get into what replaced it, whether removing it was a gameplay decision or a marketing one, and why "you can climb pipes now" is the funniest thing Infinity Ward has ever put in a press release. On the WARDOGS side: $39.99 Early Access on September 10, over a million Steam wishlists, and a promise of no in-game monetization that came out of one very bad Reddit post. We argue that the promise is a mistake — and that the most consumer-friendly thing a game can do is just be good. Plus DMZ2, aim assist, and why Infinity Ward is about to be spread way too thin. 0:00 - Intro — 600 episodes 2:09 - Patreon free trials all August 4:02 - Patron hangout: August 28th 5:30 - Two betas, one Friday 6:49 - MW4 beta dates and the pre-order wall 7:44 - A campaign mission in a beta — a CoD first 10:23 - The battle dad theory 13:24 - Discord Nitro gets you in free 15:28 - All six multiplayer maps 16:06 - Ground War is back 20:24 - Zodiac: a new Resurgence map in the beta 23:56 - Modes, and the ones held back 25:33 - 19 weapons and a fake pre-order camo 26:59 - "It's gonna be a buggy fucking disaster" 28:51 - Putting the odds at 20% 31:13 - Why I win either way 33:23 - No more omnimovement 33:48 - Climbing pipes is just a ladder 35:58 - Was omnimovement actually better? 40:22 - Mantling as the Warzone middle ground 43:06 - What actually makes you a casual? 51:12 - WARDOGS 51:50 - Closed beta August 21–23 53:30 - Three maps at launch?

"No—You hear that word 90% more than you hear yeses… The nos sometimes come from the people closest to you. For the last 20 years I've been told my dream is far-fetched, but the passion in me drives me… So when business people tell me no, [I say] my loved ones tell me no, and that hasn't stopped me. You're not gonna stop me either. I go knock on another door. One of them's gonna open, and they're gonna say yes." —Bert Lopez Overcoming rejection is the thread that runs through this entire conversation with San Antonio filmmaker Bert Lopez, who built a directing career out of VHS tapes, borrowed favors, and an almost unbelievable number of closed doors. This episode is for anyone chasing a dream that keeps getting told "no" — the entrepreneur, the aspiring author, the creative who's starting to wonder if the door will ever open. Bert walks through his origin story, from watching movies over the fence of a San Antonio drive-in theater as a kid, to filming his first project with his mom's VHS recorder in high school, to now producing faith-based films that stream on Hulu, Amazon Prime, and Tubi. He gets specific about the grind: for one scene in his upcoming film, he was turned down by 10 hotels before the 11th said yes. That kind of persistence, paired with a hard conversation about forgiveness, is what makes this episode land differently than the average "never give up" pep talk. Key takeaways: • Bert was rejected by 10 hotel locations before finding one willing to host a single scene — proof that the "no" is rarely the final answer. • Unforgiveness functions like a mental prison: it blocks creative output the same way writer's block does, according to Bert. • His breakout film ideas came from real pain, including a comedian friend's struggle with anxiety and depression, which became the basis for his upcoming film. • Passion projects — work done without pay, purely for the love of the craft — funded the bigger, paid productions that followed. • Bert's biggest personal takeaway from filmmaking wasn't a directing lesson; it was learning to release decades-old resentment before it could release him. • Streaming revenue from smaller films is what financed each subsequent, bigger production — a slow-build model, not an overnight one. Listen to the full episode for Bert's unfiltered take on chasing a God-given dream through years of rejection. A story of courage, passion, and the strength to keep going is coming to the big screen. Anxious Mark—Life of Emet, written and directed by Bert Lopez and Rogelio Cirillo, premieres September 5, 2026. We're thrilled to share that our very own Daniel Gomez is part of this special film.
