Peter and Jake take a look at the latest Nicolas Cage mindfuck "The Surfer"
On this episode of the Swell Season Surf Podcast, host Tyler Breuer discusses 'The Inevitable Return,' a short documentary film with filmmaker Zachary Zezima and Kumeyaay surfer Shuuluk Leo-Retz. The film explores the entanglement of military technology, atomic testing, and contemporary surfing on the militarized beaches of San Diego. Our conversation highlights Shuuluk's journey in reclaiming surfing as a practice of joy and connection on his indigenous land. We preview the 'Shredding: A New Lens in Surf Filmmaking' program, which challenges outdated stereotypes in surf culture and showcases diverse voices from around the world.To Learn more about Shredding: A New Lens in Surf filmmaker go check out:https://digitalgym.org/movies/shredding-a-new-lens-in-surf-filmmaking/ To follow the film on Instagram go to: @the_inevitable_return.movieThe Swell Season Surf Podcast is recorded by The NewsStand Studio at Rockefeller Center in the heart of Manhattan and is distributed by The Swell Season Surf Radio Network.

In Folge 225 sprechen David & Robert über The Surfer, ein seltsam faszinierender Film mit Nicolas Cage, der garantiert nicht jeden abholt, aber definitiv Eindruck hinterlässt. Krieg der Welten hingegen sorgt für kollektives Kopfschütteln: billig produziert, schlecht gespielt und Anwärter auf den schlechtesten Film des Jahres. Außerdem Thema: die wachsende Vorfreude auf die kommende Serie Alien: Earth, sowie die neue Dokumentation Stans über Eminems Fandom, die spannend erzählt ist, aber nicht ganz so tief bohrt, wie man es sich vielleicht wünschen würde. 00:00:00 Start 00:22:43 The Surfer 00:35:12 Alien: Earth 00:41:20 Krieg der Welten 00:49:11 Chief of War 00:56:36 Locked 01:01:46 STANS Alle Pech und Schwafel Links auf einen Blick: beacons.ai/zweiwiepechundschwafel Alle Werbepartner, Promoaktionen und weiterführende Infos findest du hier: https://linktr.ee/zweiwiepechundschwafel
Can a gender-swapped character point us toward deeper truths rather than distract from them?That's the question Jeremy Jeremiah and James St. Simon explore in our latest conversation on Marvel's Fantastic Four 2025 and its bold reimagining of the Silver Surfer as a woman. At first glance, many believers might brace for another heavy-handed cultural message—but what unfolds is something far more interesting, even spiritually resonant.In an age where entertainment often leads with ideology over imagination, Fantastic Four surprises by putting storytelling first. Unlike past reboots like Ghostbusters or Ocean's 8, which often seemed to treat gender-swapping as the central appeal, this new Silver Surfer doesn't exist to make a statement—she exists to serve the story. And because of that, she works.Rooted in the multiverse logic of Earth-828, this version of the Surfer arrives with moral weight: a once-noble figure who sacrificed everything to save her own world now finds herself an unwilling agent of destruction. The paradox is powerful—and deeply Christian. What happens when self-sacrifice is distorted by the systems of the world? Can goodness remain when repurposed for evil?This isn't just good storytelling—it's a cinematic parable. It reminds us that true virtue, like Christ's, often comes through sacrifice, not through force or flash. The Surfer's arc offers a surprising mirror to the Gospel: salvation through suffering, strength in surrender, and the tragedy of corrupted mission.We also ask the hard question: Have Christians become so wary of “woke” Hollywood that we miss moments where the message actually aligns with deeper truth? What if some of these creative risks—even when imperfect—still invite us into conversations about identity, sacrifice, and redemption?Join us as we dive into this and more—seeking not just entertainment, but glimpses of the eternal hidden within today's culture.

Send us a textAs promised, this week on episode #109 of "Fabulous Film & Friends we're going to weigh in on the two big ticket super hero extravaganzas from the Summer of 2025: James Gunn's Superman starring David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Skyler Gisando, Wendell Pierce, Edi Gathegi, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Sara Sampaio and Nicholas Hoult up against The Fantastic Four: First Steps directed by Matt Shakman and starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss Bachrach, Joseph Quinn, Julia Garner and Ralph Ineson. Returning for yet another daringly detailed deep dive into the world of fantastical four colored fantasies is nephew to a comic bookstore Kingpin, author, teacher and hypnotherapist, Joe Field. Before we blast off into the Ultra-Negative Zone, the synopses: In 2025's Superman, it is 3 years into his mission and Earth's Champion, The Man of Steel has met his match in Lex Luthor who causes a distraction with a giant monster and breaks into Superman's secret Fortress of Solitude where he translates a message from Superman's parents in which they instruct their son Kal El –Superman's Kryptonian name-- to take over earth and spread his seed. Using this jarringly awkward info to turn public opinion against our hero, Luthor has also made a clone of Superman called Ultraman who continually batters and beats the Man of Steel into submission. On top of that, Luthor has a Pocket Universe where he jails his enemies including his ex-girlfriends. And Lex has Ultraman place Superman in a cage with another a super powered being named Metamorpho who can weaken Superman by turning his hands into Kryptonite. Ultimately, Luthor's cruelty overwhelms Metamorpho who helps Superman escape the pocket universe but it in doing so, the unstable dimensional rift threatens to swallow Earth. It is only with the help of scrappy reporter Lois Lane and a team of heroes called The Justice Gang that Superman that is able to beat Ultraman, Luthor and close the rift. There's also some political stuff going on with two made up countries going to War because of Luthor's manipulations. In The Fantastic Four: First Steps it has been four years since Reed Richards, Sue Storm, her brother Johnny and Ben Grimm were transformed by cosmic rays into the world's protectors, super stretchy genius Mr. Fantastic, The Invisible Woman, The Human Torch and the rock man known as The Thing who are biggest celebrities on the planet. The exciting news that team leaders Reed Richards and Sue Storm are expecting their first child is put on the back burner by the arrival of the Silver Surfer the herald of the planet eating Celestial known as Galactus. Galactus tells the Fantastic Four that he will spare Earth in exchange for their yet unborn child, but that his too high a price to pay. With the public opinion against them, and world watching nervously, the team springs into action and devises a incredible plan to teleport planet earth into the far reaches of space. But then the Surfer and Galactus arrive and put the kabosh on the plan so the FF amends the plan to send Galactus himself into the far reaches of space, which seemed like the better strategy to begin with. So which movie was dumber and more suitable for booger eating six year olds? Find out!Watch to the video podcast on Youtube:https://youtu.be/cZCszsepEVM

With their mission nearly complete, America Chavez opens a portal back to the Resistance, while the Riftguards themselves return to Earth.

It's time for a Be Kind Rewind on Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer—the 2007 sequel that gave us Chris Evans' scene-stealing Human Torch, Andre Braugher delivering one of the best lines ever (“I'm the quarterback!”), and… a Galactus that looks like a weather cloud. Dave and Cody dig into what holds up, what absolutely doesn't (looking at you, Jessica Alba's blue contacts), and the surprisingly decent CGI that made Silver Surfer a standout.Also: The fellas hit the latest pop culture news including the...um...Coldplay's concert incident and South Park's $1.5 billion streaming deal.And stay tuned at the end as we answer listener questions in The Lobby!https://linktr.ee/PopCulturePastorPod

Physical media serves up some classics as well as some that deserve more modern classic status. Peter Sobczynski may disagree with some of them but he joins Erik Childress again this week to bring you the latest and greatest. They include a restored series from Francois Truffaut as well as some oddities involving Fred MacMurray and the “involvement” of The Three Stooges. There are sequels for Robocop and the Ghoulies as well as some more WWII hijinks for Brad Pitt. One of the great westerns of all-time is up for debate. Though there is nothing but love for one of the better low-budget sci-fi films of its day and Bill Paxton making one of the best directorial debuts ever.3:22 - Criterion (The Adventures of Antoine Doinel (4K))12:30 - Kino (Exclusive, Shane 4K)27:39 - Arrow Films (Crumb Catcher)34:19 - Sony (Stop!

EP:90In this episode, I sit down with world champion para-surfer Zoe Smith, whose story is not the sugar-coated kind. After losing her leg in a car accident, Zoe went through years of depression, identity loss, and frustration. But instead of settling, she carved out a brand new version of herself — in the surf, no less.We talk about everything from mindset and ableism to why people need to stop assuming every disabled person is angling for the Paralympics. Zoe's journey is raw, funny, and fiercely honest — and full of the kind of perspective that makes you rethink what's actually stopping you.Key Takeaways:You don't need a five-year plan. You just need to start.Adversity doesn't make you a hero — how you respond to it does.There's no one-size-fits-all recovery. Let people grieve, then grow.Surfing isn't just a sport — for Zoe, it's been a tool for freedom and identity.Want to support someone with a disability? Ditch the pity and ask real questions.The dark place can become a comfort zone. The real growth? Punching your way out.Being “strong” isn't always helpful — sometimes it just hides the pain.Surfing in a wave pool and the ocean are two different beasts — but both teach you something about resilience.Timestamps:00:00 – Intro: Recorded at The Wave Surf Sisters Weekend00:14 – Zoe shares how she lost her leg and the identity crisis that followed02:50 – “Are you going to the Paralympics?” – Why that question can miss the point06:40 – Finding community at a limb loss charity event — and finally feeling seen09:10 – Why surfing (not football) gave Zoe a fresh start — no comparisons, just progress13:48 – From total beginner to competing for Team England in months18:40 – Mid-roll ad break opportunity (great natural pause in the conversation)20:12 – How to talk to kids about prosthetics — and why language matters24:25 – Zoe on surviving the “dark place” and building mindset one wave at a time31:30 – The day a grom and his dad saw Zoe surf — and everything shifted35:18 – Why surfing clears the mind like nothing else — even in a wave pool41:00 – Quick-fire round: comfort zones, dares, and the joy of being underestimated

In 1959, American International came out with Gidget, about a teenage girl who falls in love with surfing even though she doesn't know the first thing about the aquatic sport. If we as an audience weren't already privy to surfing, the titular protagonist's enthusiasm would've been enough to at least pique our interest.
We pay tribute to a musical giant, focusing on the moment where is started to get the recognition he deserved, and a cover where everyone reinforced that recognition. Surfer Girl, originally by The Beach Boys, covered by Paul Simon. Outro music is Brian Wilson, by Barenaked Ladies.

Stephanie welcomes back author Margaret Feinberg to explore Margaret's journey to better understand and personally experience the Holy Spirit, and share insights about how God's Spirit works in our everyday lives. Margaret's new book, "The God you need to know” invites us into a deep dive in the Person and Work of God's Holy Spirit. Many people think the Holy Spirit first appeared in Acts 2 (Pentecost), yet the Spirit has been active throughout the whole Bible. In the Old Testament, the Spirit is present from the very beginning, hovering over the waters in Genesis. The Holy Spirit empowers people in many diverse ways, such as giving wisdom to artisans like Bezalel or clothing Gideon with courage. Realizing this deepens our appreciation of God's ongoing presence and reminds us that spiritual experiences aren't limited to the extraordinary—they are woven throughout the ordinary. Margaret says, the story of the Spirit didn't start at Pentecost, and it doesn't only happen in dramatic moments. Where might you miss the Spirit at work in your daily routines? Margaret describes her research into how people experience the Holy Spirit, and discovered that there is no “cookie-cutter” approach. Some feel a nudge or inner voice, others recall Scripture, some sense physical warmth, and others have dreams or receive guidance in mundane activities. The Holy Spirit's creativity matches our unique personalities and learning styles. Together, Margaret and Stephanie wonder, How might God communicate with you in a way that matches your temperament? Are you overlooking His voice because you expect it to look a certain way? Margaret expands the definition of miracles from the spectacular to “the kindness of God on display.” She shares examples like God guiding someone home when lost or prompting a generous act. Sometimes miracles are obvious, but often, like at the wedding in Cana, they remain hidden to many—yet are miraculous all the same. So, together, they ask, What small moments in your life might be God's quiet miracles—His kindness breaking into your routine? Drawing from the story of Bezalel, Margaret points out the Spirit's role in empowering creativity. Making art, plans, connections, and even daily tasks can be inspired by God. We're all invited to “make” with the Spirit's inspiration, whether it's a beautiful loaf of bread or a supportive friendship. She prompts us to wonder, What is God inviting you to create or offer today? Margaret encourages us to pray simple prayers for the Holy Spirit's presence and guidance daily—paying attention to coincidences, inspirations, or “nudges.” While engaging with the Spirit may seem mysterious or even intimidating, it leads to freedom, peace, and transformation. She challenges each one of us: For the next week, ask, “Holy Spirit, help me notice Your presence today.” Journal what you sense, feel, or notice—especially in small ways. The Holy Spirit is alive and active—sometimes dramatic, often gentle, always personal. By lifting our expectations and slowing down to notice, we can discover God's kindness in new places and learn to walk more closely with Him, trusting that He meets us right where we are. Embrace God today, the God you need to know! MEET MARGARET FEINBERG Margaret Feinberg, one of America's most beloved Bible teachers, speaks at churches and conferences. Her books, including Taste and See and Fight Back With Joy, along with their corresponding Bible studies, have sold more than one million copies and received critical acclaim and national media coverage from the Associated Press, USA Today, the Los Angeles Times, the Washington Post, and more. She was named by Christianity Today as one of fifty women most shaping culture and the church today. Margaret savors life with her husband, Leif, and their superpup, Zoom. Zoom makes an appearance in the interview on Gospel Spice, and you can catch him on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/gospelspice Now that you've read the official bio, here's the kick off your shoes and drink iced tea on the back porch version: Margaret spends most mornings with her good friends Coffee and God. Without Coffee, mornings would be difficult. Without God, life would be impossible. You'll often find Margaret (puppy-in-tow) adventuring outdoors—she enjoys hiking, river rafting, and scanning the night sky for the Northern Lights and shooting stars. She boasts an exceptionally dry sense of humor that she attributes to her Jewish father. Little known secret: He was recently inducted into the Surfer's Hall of Fame, and her mom earned her captain's license for 60-ton ships. They're pretty amazing. You'd like them. Married to Leif for more than a decade, Margaret's known for losing things like her sunglasses on her head, keys in her hand, or her phone for the 12th time in the same day. Luckily, Zoom hasn't been left anywhere… yet. Always up for an adventure, Margaret is known to drive 50 miles to chase down a food truck. She prefers watching comedies and laughing until her tummy aches over doing sit ups. More about Margaret here: https://margaretfeinberg.com/ ABOUT “THE GOD YOU NEED TO KNOW” Discover answers to your biggest questions about the Holy Spirit--and invite the Spirit to move in your life in powerful, real, tangible ways. The topic of the Holy Spirit can be…well, spirited…and one that sparks passionate discussion, especially among the most devout religious circles. What does it mean to be filled with the Holy Spirit? Are spiritual gifts still relevant today? Was the move of the Holy Spirit reserved for a specific age in history – or is the Spirit active now? The book traces Margaret's personal search for the Holy Spirit's work in her own life, rooted in childhood experiences and theological study. She unpacks the Spirit's role in the lives of biblical figures like Gideon, David, Ezekiel, and Bezalel, showing how God's presence has never been limited to a single moment in history. “Over the last few years, I've embarked on a deep exploration of the Holy Spirit prior to Pentecost, Margaret writes. “When we simply skip forward to the displays of the Spirit at Pentecost, we miss the faithful ways the Spirit of the Living God has been present and active with people throughout history. That's why we must explore the Holy Spirit on the road to Pentecost. The Spirit is not just the God we want to know; this is the God we need to know.” Everyone has questions about the Holy Spirit. If faith in Jesus provides my connection to God, then what role does the Holy Spirit play? How is the Spirit part of my day-to-day relationship with Christ? And why doesn't the Spirit's work play out in my life the way it seems to in the Bible? Why do other believers seem to have a connection to the Spirit, and I don't? Even longtime Jesus followers can feel stymied and confused. In The God You Need to Know, Margaret Feinberg, the bestselling author of Fight Back with Joy and Scouting the Divine, takes you on a journey through the Old Testament on the road to Pentecost to find answers to your burning questions about the Spirit. You will discover: The Spirit still working powerfully in unexpected places How to respond to spiritual promptings that often go ignored A deeper understanding of the Spirit's role in biblical events, especially the Old Testament How to encounter the Holy Spirit in fresh and practical ways Spiritual renewal through companionship with God The Holy Spirit's appearance on the Day of Pentecost was not a grand debut; it was the culmination of the Spirit's work since the beginning of time. You can experience a vibrant life with the same powerful flame. It's time to discover the God you need to know. We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.
