El programa explora la relación música-cine, desde bandas sonoras icónicas a biopics musicales. Juan Fer Andrés, director del Instituto del Cine de Madrid, define el musical cuando sus canciones son esenciales, y su evolución, que integra oscuridad y temas en narrativa como "El Rey León" o "La La Land". En animación, la música precede a la imagen. Guillermo Balmori, historiador, repasa grandes éxitos del cine. Detalla la elección de Stallone para "Eye of the Tiger" en "Rocky 3" y el impacto de "I Will Always Love You" de Houston en "El Guardaespaldas", con inicio a capela ideado por ella y Costner. Destaca "Stayin' Alive" de Bee Gees ("Fiebre del Sábado Noche"), útil para RCP, y "As Time Goes By" ("Casablanca") como melodía preexistente. Streisand triunfa con "Evergreen" en "Ha Nacido una Estrella". Juan Tejero, crítico, analiza el éxito de los biopics musicales, que conectan al público al humanizar mitos y priorizar la emoción. Elogia la interpretación de Jamie Foxx en "Ray" por su ...

Lawrence Zarian hosts an episode of “You Are Beautiful” with guest Melissa Errico, beginning with a candid, humorous setup about lighting, auditions, and aesthetics before moving into Lawrence's background as a longtime TV makeover expert and QVC clothing designer behind “Beautiful by Lawrence Zarian.” They talk about how fashion is less about how you look and more about how you feel, share favorite pieces from Lawrence's line (including blues, an off-the-shoulder rosette top, and a scalloped V-neck stripe), and discuss what Melissa wears to feel confident—V-necks, black-and-white Breton stripes, vintage biker boots, and eclectic, artsy combinations. Lawrence and Melissa also answer a mirror question about what they like seeing in themselves that day, including Melissa's healing from an eye stye, feeling rested, and fresh red hair, and Lawrence's enjoyment of wearing blue, having a good hair day after hair loss post-COVID, and embracing turning 60. The conversation expands into Melissa's artistry and origins: her father playing Michel Legrand at home during the Vietnam era, how that music later led to Melissa's close collaboration with Legrand on Broadway and on a symphonic record (“Legrand Affair” with the Brussels Philharmonic), and her formative experience seeing “On Your Toes” on Broadway that made her sob and sparked her desire to perform. They discuss Sondheim's “Beautiful” from “Sunday in the Park with George,” which Melissa reads aloud to frame beauty as something that changes, and Lawrence's intent to focus his podcast on the essence of people rather than projects. Melissa then describes her evolving relationship with Barbra Streisand—how Malcolm Gets pushed her to truly listen, how Streisand's artistry feels like a force of nature, and how Melissa's “The Streisand Effect” concert is an homage exploring what Streisand made possible rather than a tribute imitation. They share personal connections to Broadway (including Lawrence's first love story with Hugh Panaro after seeing “Les Misérables,” and plans to coordinate seeing him perform again), and Melissa recounts meeting Streisand briefly backstage at Madison Square Garden. Melissa also describes creating a new song concept, “Daughter of Fire,” inspired by Streisand's memoir and a moment with her own daughter, and she closes by sharing her current release: an album titled “I Can Dream, Can't I?” rolled out as weekly singles via a “waterfall release,” featuring classic American songs and ending with Joni Mitchell's “Both Sides Now.” The episode ends with Lawrence's signature prompt—Melissa answering “I am beautiful because…”—and she responds that she is beautiful because she feels music deeply as something precious that passes through her.Timestamp Menu: 00:51 Broadway Beginnings and My Fair Lady01:49 Meet Lawrence and the Beauty Theme02:46 Fashion Crushes and QVC Picks04:24 How a Designer Is Made08:31 Podcast Origin and Mirror Question09:32 Melissa on Exhaustion and Healing12:38 Three Things You Like Today15:14 Aging and Self Acceptance at 6017:24 Sondheim Beautiful Reading21:58 Melissa Musical Spark and Legrand26:56 Broadway Awakening and Les Mis30:48 Broadway Crush Memories31:30 Broadway Boyfriends Bond32:14 Streisand Effect Origins37:05 Meeting Barbra Briefly39:40 Daughter of Fire Song42:26 Style That Feels Fire48:21 Wardrobe Tips After 4053:37 New Album Dreaming56:32 Beautiful Because Music58:35 Blue Love Farewell

The life of a media mogul is analyzed in an attempt to learn the meaning of his last word: Rosebud. It's our 500th episode, and we're talking about the Streisand effect, a feature that's not in the Chase app, and a painful COVID flashback. Then we see if Citizen Kane stands the Test of Time. (Heads up: we start with some celebrating before diving into Citizen Kane at 27:23.) 

Adam and Jeff talk about that time Andre Agassi dated singer Barbra Streisand for a while despite their 28 year age gap and his fax-based courtship of actress Brooke Shields.

Misty, watercolored memories! Of what, we ask? Protesting and awkward dates, mostly. Verifiable movie stars BAR-bra Streisand and ROB-ert Redford have a relationship! It has, you know, ups and downs.

When a private sub-space message is “delivered” to the Enterprise, Kirk and Co. make their way to Star Base 11.

Hey there, it's Dave Jackson, and in this episode, I'm exploring what we, as podcasters and content creators, can learn from none other than Barbra Streisand—specifically, the infamous "Streisand effect." What Does It Mean?If you've ever wondered what that term means, I break down the story behind it, starting with a 2003 lawsuit involving her Malibu home and how trying to hide something can actually make it go viral.Be Careful What You Try to "Ban"I share my own experiences dealing with promotion in podcasting, including the challenges that come with companies making big promises about starting your podcast and, yes, my mixed feelings about Spotify's practices in the early days. I also talk about how, as much as we sometimes want to warn our audiences loudly about something, we might end up giving it more attention than it deserves.You'll hear a few stories from my past, like the time with Podshow and an NDA, and what I've learned about arguing with trolls or competitors. Bottom line: sometimes pushing back just amplifies the thing you're trying to keep quiet!As always, if you need help with your podcast, I'd love to work with you.

Anna and Ben sit down to visit the third most successful film of 1972, the slapstick comedy "What's Up, Doc?" They discuss how the film compares to its obvious antecedents and whether Streisand's character is more manipulative and callous than either Hepburn in "Bringing Up Baby" or any of Groucho's schemers, and whether Bugs Bunny's life has to be endangered to justify his actions. Of course you know that this means war...

Just in time for the Holiday season, Austin and Tim travel back in time to Christmas Day, 1973. However, another stowaway snuck on board, and this time it was Tim's friend Jim. We made him watch 5 movies with us, and he can't take that time back! We forced him to watch the kung fu movie The Screaming Tiger, a wacko musical starring Desi Arnaz Jr and Zero Mostel called Marco, Streisand and Redford in The Way We Were, The Paper Chase, and ending the show with what could be the craziest movie we've seen so far on the podcast, Mike Nichols' assassination thriller The Day of the Dolphin.

Special movies reviews today!It's #56 and it's all Streisand movies.Barbra Streisand made 9 movies in the 70,s and we have already reviewed 3, (The Way we were 1973-For Pete's sake 1974-and A Star is Born 1976) So now you get our reviews of the remaining 6.1 (On a Clear Day 1970) Here rad director Vincent Minnelli (yes Liza's dad) gives us a weird musical about a woman with esp who can also make plants grow. Bob Newhart and Jack Nicholson are here along with a French guy and the racist ass cop from West Side Story. Babs sings her way into space at the end of this, and I'm extremely here for it.2 (The Owl and the Pussycat 1970) This one has a director that I really like Herbert Ross (Footloose, Goodbye Girl, the Turning Point, the Sunshine Boys, the Last of Shelia, and T.R. Baskin) giving us a zany movie that I love less than all those others. this movie is still good but for me Babs could be more of a Xanadu Muse, than an insensitive crack addict. 3 (What's Up Doc 1972) I might be getting this confused with the last film, and Maybe the “Muse” comment more applies here, I'm not sure cause it's been a minute. Also both of these films are a bit similar and Zany, I like this one better though and we might have Madeline Kahn and San Francisco to thank for that. people loved this when it came out and it pairs Babs with Ryan O'Neal which just may come up again soooooon.4 (Up the Sandbox 1972) Here Babs plays a rad woman and mother who says some of the coolest shit I've ever heard. Film ain't perfect but this was a treat for us. Watch this and then The Empire Strikes back, 2 great films from the same director.5 (Funny Lady 1975) Herbert Ross directing again in this messy sequel (ish) to 1968's Funny girl. Not the worst film but I guess it's not what people ordered at the time. I like That Cornelius from the planet of the apes is here, and that Roddy got to play an “out” character standing next to Babs.6 (Main Event 1979) This pairs Babs with Ryan O'Neil again. this one was a place in my heart cause I saw it as kid in the theater, so I'll always enjoy watching it. It's fun and light, it's got an issue or two and hey, why listen to us tell ya all about it. thank you film chums for listening.

In today's episode I consider the Streisand effect, how responding to critics and attention can create more noise, how I once gave a lecture in Black Metal once upon a time, would that work now? and how the scene back in the day and it's adoption of extremity was never meant to bear close analysis, a brief discussion of what a live album used to mean.....keep your tongue in your cheek...nemtheanga_primordialon the gramsupport the show over at :https://patreon.com/AlanAverillPrimordial on SpotifyYES THERE'S A NEW LIVE ALBUM OUT !!https://open.spotify.com/artist/0BZr6WHaejNA63uhZZZZek?si=yFFV8ypSSDOESUX62_0TzQsponsored by Metal Blade recordshttps://metalblade.indiemerch.com/promo code AA 2024 for 10% off your orderships worldwideFor info on my work as a booking agent go to:https://www.facebook.com/DragonProductionsOfficialor email alan@dragon-productions.comPrimordial cds/lps available fromhttps://www.metalblade.com/primordial/death metalVERMINOUS SERPENThttps://open.spotify.com/artist/54Wpl9JD0Zn4rhpBvrN2Oa?si=zOjIulHXS5y9lW1YHMhgTAdoomDREAD SOVEREIGN https://open.spotify.com/artist/60HY4pl0nbOrZA6u2QnqDN?si=sxQ5_1htR6G3WIvy1I_wXAgothAPRILMENhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GzLO1YJClmN5TvV4A37MJ?si=cRXSk24lQKWSqJG-B8KbWQSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/agitators-anonymous-the-alan-averill-podcast.

Send us a textSofia Streisand dropped into Playwright's Spotlight to discuss the U.S. premiere of her play Bluebeard's Castle (that I misspoke as Blackbeard's) November 1st through November 23rd. In this discussion, we discuss the difference between Russian, European, and American theatre, her journey from musical theatre to playwriting, writing multiple voices, and writing for specific actors and their cadence, mannerisms, and nuances. We unpack writing in a second language, the concept of and recognizing imposter syndrome, writing bilingually, refraining to avoid offense, and introducing sensitive topics. We follow up with "weight bearing" walls, inspirational  feedback, when a show is born, the difficulty/benefits or wearing different hats, as well as adding layers and references. It's a brilliant interview discussing cultural aspects of playwriting we can all acquire from. Another great learning experience I know you will learn from. Enjoy!Sofia Streisand is producer, director, and playwright born in St. Petersburg, Russia. She co-wrote the musical based on Alexander's Pushkin's masterpiece The Queen of Spades.For tickets to Bluebeard's Castle at the Odyssey Theatre through November 23rd, visit - https://odysseytheatre.com/whats-on/bluebeards-castle/To watch the video format of this episode, click - https://youtu.be/JaqIonYRzSIWebsite and Socials for Sofia Streisand -https://sofiastreisand.com/Websites and socials for James Elden, Punk Monkey Productions and Playwright's SpotlightPunk Monkey Productions - www.punkmonkeyproductions.comPLAY Noir -www.playnoir.comPLAY Noir Anthology –www.punkmonkeyproductions.com/contact.htmlJames Elden -Twitter - @jameseldensauerIG - @alakardrakeFB - fb.com/jameseldensauerPunk Monkey Productions and PLAY Noir - Twitter - @punkmonkeyprods                  - @playnoirla IG - @punkmonkeyprods       - @playnoir_la FB - fb.com/playnoir        - fb.com/punkmonkeyproductionsPlaywright's Spotlight -Twitter - @wrightlightpod IG - @playwrights_spotlightPlaywriting services through Los Angeles Collegiate Playwrights Festivalwww.losangelescollegiateplaywrightsfestival.com/services.htmlSupport the show

In this episode, acclaimed Filipino filmmaker Baby Ruth Villarama joins Ray Powell and Jim Carouso to discuss her documentary, "Food Delivery: Fresh from the West Philippine Sea"—a film Beijing tried repeatedly to block inside the Philippines and internationally. Villarama shares her perspective on the struggle of Filipino fisherfolk and defenders facing intimidation on the region's contested waters, and how their experience holds urgent lessons for food security, truth, and sovereignty across the Indo-Pacific.A story bigger than borders: Villarama frames the West Philippine Sea not merely as a local dispute, but as a global issue involving food security and human dignity—where what happens to Filipino fishermen and their defenders ripples far beyond the region.Courage and resistance on the water: Her documentary spotlights Arnel Satam, whose David-versus-Goliath confrontations with China's bullying paramilitary vessels epitomize the bravery and resolve of ordinary Filipinos under threat.Suppressed but not silenced: Repeated efforts to ban and discredit the documentary—in Manila and abroad—reflect real-world campaigns to silence stories that threaten powerful interests, but these actions have also served to attract even more attention and support.Funding and independence: Villarama explains how her team navigated the challenges of independent filmmaking in the Philippines, relying on grassroots backing and remaining free from government support, thus reinforcing the film's authenticity and local perspective.Solidarity and the Streisand effect: She notes that pushback from China and “silent treatment” at home only amplified interest; acts of censorship drew more eyes and allies.Beyond politics—human connections: Villarama emphasizes that the heart of the story is about protecting livelihoods, identity, and the truth itself. She advocates seeing the sea as something that connects, not divides, and urges mutual respect between neighbors.Military and daily life on the edge: The film, as described by Villarama, captures the harsh realities of Filipino military postings on remote outposts, documenting both logistical struggles and profound patriotism that contrasts sharply with China's well-supported installations.Expanding the narrative: Despite obstacles, Villarama shares that “Food Delivery” has screened at over 80 venues, launched an Oscar campaign, and plans to continue sharing the fisherfolk's story worldwide—inviting communities everywhere to reflect on their own fight for truth and home.Takeaway message for global audiences: According to Villarama, defending truth and dignity is everyone's responsibility: when one story is lost, the world's humanity is diminished. She calls on viewers to see themselves in the struggle and to protect our “one sea, one world” for the sake of all.

Brigitte Macron bajo la lupa: una periodista americana acusa, la primera dama demanda y Francia entero intenta controlar la narrativa. ¿Qué hay detrás de esta historia? Te contamos cómo un rumor se convirtió en un caso de comunicación política global, con acusaciones de grooming, teorías de conspiración, ataques DDoS y demandas que pueden redefinir la relación entre política, prensa y poder. La pregunta no es si es verdad o mentira, sino cómo un país entero maneja una crisis de reputación cuando la transparencia sería la salida más simple.☕️ Acompaña este episodio con Café Granell: https://cafesgranell.esNuestros sabores favoritos: avellana y vainilla. Pruébalos con un 10% de descuento usando el código SINFILTRO10 al hacer tu pedido.⏰ Minutos (00:25) Macron demanda a Candace Owens(01:28) El efecto Streisand explicado(03:05) Quién es Candace Owens(05:12) Macron tenía 15 cuando la conoció(08:04) Relación consensuada o grooming(10:22) El misterio de las fotos de Brigitte(12:48) El hermano invisible Jean-Michel Trogneux(15:06) Reconocimiento facial(18:03) Medios vs teoría de conspiración(21:00) Ataque DDoS desde Francia(23:05) Difamación y la Primera Enmienda(26:12) Crisis de comunicación de Macron(28:10) Qué delitos implicaría ocultar identidad(30:02) Conclusión narrativa vs verdad

Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot dedicate this episode of The Audio Files to processing the shock and grief of Charlie Kirk's assassination through the power of music. They weave a journey from anger to resilience, curating songs that reflect raw emotion, unshakable defiance, and the hope needed to carry forward. From metal tracks that channel rage without violence, to classics like Tom Petty's “I Won't Back Down,” Tesla's “Hang Tough,” and Johnny Cash's “Man in Black,” each song becomes a statement of strength and principle. They share personal stories of concerts, mosh pits, and college experiences with intolerance, connecting them to Kirk's own legacy of dialogue over violence. Along the way, they reflect on Codex 9/11 screenings, the Streisand effect amplifying Kirk's message, and the broader cultural battle over free speech and indoctrination. The show closes with uplifting selections, Kansas, Hatebreed, opera, and more, reminding listeners that while grief is real, music can unify, inspire, and heal.

In this episode, we break down a fascinating new study comparing three training styles — Strength & Conditioning, CrossFit, and HYBRID training — to see which one delivers the best results. The kicker? All groups did the same workouts in different formats. The results might surprise you.We also dig into why training age matters, the most overlooked factor in getting results, and why chasing two goals at once can backfire. From physique burnout to the optimal male body fat percentage, this one covers it all.And then… we tackle CrossFit's bold new campaign: F the Quick Fix. Is it a marketing win, a mistake, or both? We share our takes on the message, the backlash, and what it means for the fitness industry.Timestamps:0:00 A study where all groups did the same workouts but different formats2:17 Exercise science… what's realistic?3:35 So here's what happened7:20 The difference between the test groups9:00 HYBRID group improved overall fitness more than CrossFitters10:10 This was a very well-done study10:46 Training age plays a huge factor here12:03 Areas of improvement for this study12:55 Why this all matters15:41 The most underestimated part of training — enjoyment17:13 Chase two chickens, catch none?

The Death of the True Star: From Streisand to Sydney Sweeney | Karel Cast Ep. 107 Hollywood used to make stars—real stars. The kind that could sing, act, and command a room like Streisand, Streep, or Prince. But now? The era of the true entertainer is over. Sydney Sweeney does a jeans ad and suddenly we know her political party. JLo headlines a tour and is torn to shreds. Fame today doesn't require talent—just a phone and an algorithm. And when everything became “content,” the art… started to die. Are real stars a thing of the past? Have we traded brilliance for virality? Let's talk about it—uncensored, unfiltered, and unhinged.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 20, 2025 is: utmost • UT-mohst • adjective Utmost describes something that is the greatest or highest in degree, number, or amount. // The safety of employees is of utmost importance. // Olympians push themselves to the utmost limit when training. See the entry > Examples: “Only about 2,000 of the hybrid tea rose bushes, dubbed Barbra's Baby, are available so far. … Streisand politely declined to comment for this story, but Dan Bifano, a master rosarian and longtime gardener to Streisand, Oprah and other famous folk, believes a rose's name ‘is always of utmost importance; it makes the rose salable or unsalable, and anytime a rose is connected to a celebrity, it's going to pick up the sales.'” — Jeanette Marantos, The Los Angeles Times, 25 Mar. 2025 Did you know? Utmost, which typically communicates that something is of the greatest or highest in degree, number, or amount, is commonly found modifying words like importance, concern, and respect. But utmost can also indicate that something is, literally or figuratively, farthest or most distant—that it is outmost, as in “the utmost point.” Utmost in fact traces back to the Old English word ūtmest, a superlative adjective formed from the adverb ūt, meaning “out.” Utmost can also function as a noun referring to the highest attainable point or degree, as in “the inn provides the utmost in comfort and luxury.” The noun also often occurs in phrases such as “we did our utmost to help” where it means “the highest, greatest, or best of one's abilities, powers, and resources.”

The A.M. Update with Aaron McIntire dissects a chaotic weekend: President Trump's Truth Social post fuels the Epstein controversy, igniting the Streisand effect by defending AG Pam Bondi amid reported tensions with Deputy FBI Director Dan Bongino. A massive ICE raid in Southern California targets a cannabis farm, uncovering child labor and sparking violent protests, while a rogue judge tries to halt operations. Tucker Carlson's Turning Point USA speech slams GOP for prioritizing “appetizer” wins like women's sports over core issues like economic decay and urban decline, hinting at a 2028 run. Plus, charges dropped against Dr. Kirk Moore for defying COVID mandates.

European football is here, a chance to learn about new teams, unknown players and exotic places. And then there's Shelbourne v Linfield. The first section of this show is taken up by discussion of Wednesday night with a bit of Mark Coyle, Joey O'Brien and David Healy audio thrown in. Have Linfield staff attended more FAI Cup finals than your average Irish tourist in Cambrils? This week's show might just provide the answer. We also discuss St Pat's, the Streisand effect and the goal return in Inchicore being similar to the alcohol content in Johnny's beverages of choice. In a crowded mailbag, we have a bit of podcast to podcast action, Dermot Usher analysis, the inevitable Derry City title race discussion and much more besides. All of this 24 hour partying is brought to you in association with Rascals Brewing, Collar & Cuff, Future Ticketing and Sport Cosanta.

It's a Pop Culture Thursday on the JTrain Podcast, and Jared kicks things off with Barbra Streisand's “penetration” memoir moment (yep, you read that right). From there, he dives into the absurdities of reality TV, Lindsay Hubbard bringing her baby to the Summer House, and the hilariously overhyped “epic” birthday party for North West. Jason Isaacs spills Hollywood tea, Jason Segel gets engaged, and Meghan Markle teaches her toddlers about money markets (because, of course, she does). Jared's got opinions, rants, and riffs on all of it, with the perfect mix of outrage and laughs. Plus, he plugs some upcoming shows, a great Hero Bread discount, and a YouTube channel that needs your eyeballs. Quick hit stories, maximum sarcasm, and that signature JTrain energy.

Barbra Streisand has been a huge presence in American entertainment—music, film, and stage—for more than sixty years. She was the youngest person ever to achieve the EGOT, winning Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony awards by the age of twenty-seven. At eighty-three years old, Streisand is releasing a new album, “The Secret of Life: Partners, Volume 2.” It's a collection of duets featuring Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, and Seal, along with younger artists including Hozier, Sam Smith, and Ariana Grande. Streisand sat down with David Remnick to talk about the record and the history behind it. Bob Dylan, for one, apparently had a crush on the singer from afar. “We were both nineteen years old in Greenwich Village, never met each other,” Streisand says. “I remember him sending me flowers and writing me a card in different color pencils, like a child's writing, you know. And ‘Would you sing with me?' And I thought, What would I sing with him?” Streisand talks with Remnick about her complicated childhood with her mother, who was jealous of her talent; her dislike of live performance; and the classy way to rebuff a come-on from Marlon Brando.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITThe alarming rise of politically charged rhetoric and its real-world consequences takes center stage in this candid morning reflection. When Representative Jasmine Crockett suggests Democrats need to "punch" in races against Senator Ted Cruz, we must ask: how do such statements impact our already volatile political landscape? With Tesla dealerships becoming targets of what can only be described as domestic terrorism—complete with incendiary devices and armed suspects—the connection between inflammatory speech and dangerous action becomes impossible to ignore.Meanwhile, Heart guitarist Nancy Wilson's declaration that "it's more embarrassing than ever to be an American" sparks a fascinating exploration of celebrity influence and fan reactions. As social media critics suggest she leave the country while longtime fans wrestle with disappointment, we're confronted with a deeply personal question: where do we draw our own boundaries when it comes to separating art from political views?The conversation evolves into a thoughtful examination of consumer choices and personal values. Can we still enjoy Streisand's voice while disagreeing with her politics? Should we continue watching Clooney's films despite opposing viewpoints? These aren't simple questions with universal answers—they're individual judgments that reveal much about how we navigate our increasingly divided culture.What's your threshold for boycotting? Have you ever stopped supporting an artist, product, or company based solely on political statements? Join the conversation and share where you draw your own lines between appreciation and principle in today's complex political landscape.

We have had a weird week between traveling and Tropical Storm Debby at home, so we decided to switch things up on the True Sunlight feed with a special deep dive episode lead by Sam Berlin. We will be back next week with more shocking developments in the Mica Francis story and we'll start this show with a couple of quick updates on a few of the cases we have been following.  This is an exclusive Premium Dive Episode normally reserved for Luna Shark Premium Members but todays premium dive will also be released on the public feed because of how important the topic is.  In today's episode, reporter and producer Sam Berlin sat down with attorney Rebecca Lindahl to discuss the complexities of defamation cases…and what she thinks might happen with Buster's case. Today's Premium Dive revolves around defamation law, specifically the differences between libel and slander, legal remedies, and the challenges of proving falsity, publication, and damages. Sam and Becky also discussed the ongoing legal battle between Angie and Aaron Solomon, the concept of public figure status in defamation cases, implications for reporters, and the potential for the Streisand effect. Save The Date For Peter Strauss' federal sentencing hearing August 27th in Charleston and Alex Murdaugh's Federal Appeal in Richmond October 29th (just in time for spooky season).  Special thank you to Rebecca Lindahl for lending her voice to today's show and you can learn more about her and her firm here: Rebecca K.
