We’ve put together the ultimate Galentine’s movie list designed to do one very important thing: stop you from spiralling into your notes app and texting someone who absolutely does not deserve access to you anymore.From comforting rom-com classics to surprisingly emotional slow burns, laugh-out-loud comedies and even a few “why did you pick this?” wildcards, Laura and Mon interpret the brief in wildly different ways — resulting in a list that swings between empowering, unhinged and deeply confusing (in the best way).Plus… a few truly rogue entries. Including the film Laura says made her never want to speak to another human again.From romance to comedy, and even a kids’ movie moment nobody saw coming — this list is chaotic, cathartic, and might just be the thing that saves you from reopening that old thread.THE END BITS Love binge-watching TV?

February is delivering a packed slate of must-watch television. Critic Dheepthika Laurent reviews the French release of "Heated Rivalry", which brings a steamy, taboo-breaking hockey romance to new audiences, as well as the Netflix show that revisits the legacy and controversies of "America's Next Top Model". Legal drama fans can dive into a high-stakes new season of "The Lincoln Lawyer", with Mickey Haller facing his toughest case yet – his own.

In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy Koch explore a growing trend among so called "TV Moms," parents who allow television freely but restrict personal devices like iPads and phones. Is there really a difference? Or is all screen time the same? Drawing on current research and practical parenting experience, Dr. Kathy explains why screens are not created equal. Television can become communal and conversational when used intentionally. Personal devices, however, are engineered for individual consumption and often create emotional ownership that's harder for kids to relinquish. But even TV loses its value when it becomes constant background noise. The deeper concern isn't just screen exposure, it's what screens are replacing. Quiet. Conversation. Boredom. Creative play. Relational engagement. In a culture where something is always on, children are losing the natural rhythms that form identity: sitting, walking, listening, asking, and wondering. When noise fills every space, wisdom has no room to rise. Dr. Kathy reminds parents that quiet is not empty. Quiet is formative. It's where discernment grows, where creativity sparks, where the Holy Spirit speaks. Identity is shaped not by constant input but by repeated relational moments in which children feel known and guided. This episode challenges parents to reconsider not just how much media their kids consume, but whether screens are crowding out the spaces where character, connection, and confidence are built.

Television is filled with "will they or won't they" couples. Friends had Ross and Rachel. Parks and Rec had Leslie and Ben. The Gilmore Girls, had Lorelei and Luke. But what happens after the couple's kiss? Do we keep watching? One statistician dug into the data behind the kiss effect, and that's the focus of this episode of Stats and Stories with guest Ashley Mullan.  Ashley Mullan is a PhD student and research assistant in Vanderbilt University's Department of biostatistics. Currently, Mullan works on a team focusing on the care children receive in Tennessee's child welfare and juvenile justice systems. She's also interested in pop culture, and in her spare time, analyzes her own consumption of popular media. That led Mullan to author a Significance article on The Kiss Effect, the impact of a "will they won't they?" couple's first kiss on a TV show's ratings.

Hollywood and Horsepower Show with Mark Otto Guest, John Barbour of Talk Movies and John Barbour's World https://johnbarboursworld.com/ Hollywood Legend John Barbour: The Bumpy Road from Canadian Dropout to Reality TV Pioneer John Barbour: Hollywood & Horsepower The Bumpy Life of the "Father of Reality TV" & Sinatra's Secret Writer Editorial Abstract Core Narrative From a Salvation Army charity ward in Toronto to the heights of Hollywood, John Barbour's career was built on "accidents" and raw wit. A high-school dropout and former Vegas gambler who became a 5-time Emmy winner. "Television is the only industry in America where competition does not improve the product." KEY MILESTONES • Created Real People (1st Reality Show) • 4.5 years as Sinatra's private writer • Directed definitive JFK documentaries • Discovered/Mentored Pat Morita LIFE PHILOSOPHY • "Better to be liked than talented" • Atheism at 12 (The "God's Will" debate) • Success through accidental timing The Inner Circle FS Frank Sinatra "The Chairman" & Employer JG Jim Garrison JFK Investigator & Mentor RF Redd Foxx Lifelong Friend & Mentor FEATURED WORK "Your Mother's Not a Virgin" The definitive autobiography of a Canadian dropout. #RealityTV #JFKConspiracy #Sinatra Interview Date: Feb 12, 2026 • 105 min read This interview explores the extraordinary life of John Barbour, the "Father of Reality TV," tracing his journey from a dysfunctional childhood in Toronto to the heights of Hollywood success. Barbour shares candid anecdotes about his "accidental" career, his time as Frank Sinatra's private writer, and his groundbreaking work on the first reality show, Real People. The conversation also delves into his deep involvement in investigating the JFK assassination alongside Jim Garrison. Detailed Summary 1. Roots of Resilience: A Troubled Beginning John Barbour's life began in a Salvation Army charity ward in Toronto in 1933, born into a severely dysfunctional environment. His father left to fight in WWII when John was six and never returned, later surfacing as a successful advertising executive in Scotland. Raised by an alcoholic mother in an abusive household, Barbour found refuge in two places: the local hockey rink and the cinema, where he developed a lifelong love for storytelling and movies. His early life was marked by poverty and minor delinquency, including stints in jail, which he balanced by spending his free time in libraries. 2. The Accidental Path to Fame Barbour attributes his greatest successes to "accidents." At 17, he became a professional gambler after memorizing books on dice and cards, eventually winning enough to buy a suit and a bus ticket to the United States. A train delay led him to Lake Tahoe, where he witnessed the arrival of Frank Sinatra and mobster Sam Giancana—a precursor to his future role as Sinatra's private writer for four and a half years. After moving to Hollywood, he transitioned from gambling to comedy, inspired by the conversational wit of Jack Paar. The "Accidental" Career Timeline 1933: Born in Toronto charity ward. 1950: Moves to US; witnesses Sinatra in Tahoe. 1960s: Mentors Pat Morita; breaks into stand-up comedy. 1979: Creates Real People, the first reality TV show. Present: Investigative documentarian (JFK/Jim Garrison). 3. Mentorship and the Comedy Scene Barbour played a pivotal role in the careers of other icons, most notably Pat Morita. He encouraged Morita to embrace his Japanese heritage in his act, providing the specific cultural jokes that helped Morita find his unique voice in comedy. Barbour also shares a deep, lifelong friendship with Redd Foxx, whom he describes as his mentor. Despite his success, Barbour remained a "controversial" figure in the industry, often clashing with network executives and fellow hosts like Johnny Carson over creative integrity and political outspokenness. 4. The JFK Investigation and Jim Garrison A significant portion of Barbour's later career has been dedicated to the JFK assassination. After reading Jim Garrison's Heritage of Stone, Barbour became a close associate of the New Orleans District Attorney. He produced definitive documentaries on the subject, arguing that Garrison had essentially solved the case in 1967. Barbour remains a vocal critic of the official Warren Commission narrative, a stance that he admits has occasionally made him persona non grata in mainstream Hollywood circles. Key Industry Connections John Barbour's influence spanned multiple generations of talent. Frank Sinatra: Private writer for 4.5 years. Pat Morita: Gave him his "Japanese comic" concept. Redd Foxx: Lifelong friend and comedy mentor. Jim Garrison: Partner in JFK investigative media. Key Data Birth Year: 1933. Sinatra Collaboration: 4.5 years as a private writer. Peak Earnings: $23,000 per week during the height of Real People. JFK Special Date: November 22nd, 4:00 PM – 6:00 PM Pacific Time. To-Do / Next Steps Read John Barbour's autobiography, Your Mother's Not a Virgin, available on Amazon. Tune in to the live two-hour JFK special on November 22nd via BBS Radio/TV. Visit John Barbour's website to view archival interviews with Redd Foxx and Frank Zappa. Research the "No Fallen Heroes" foundation to support veterans and first responders. Conclusion John Barbour's story is a testament to the power of storytelling and the unpredictability of life. From a "Canadian dropout" to a television pioneer, his career has been defined by a refusal to compromise his wit or his search for the truth, whether in comedy or in the investigation of American history.

With so much of the world focused on games right now, it seemed only natural for us to do the same and the results are pure off-the-rails gold. (If they gave medals for going on random tangents, we'd be the competitors to beat.)

Could they be true, and if so, what would we like to see? We consider the pros and cons of releasing DLC for a game that's now over a decade old before we wrap up with Valerie's thoughts on The Conqueror's Witcher Virtual Challenge and why she may never make it out of Velen. Oh, and we wind up talking about sex cards. Because of course we do.

A compelling look at the network that helped give a community its voice.

Can humor actually save the world? For 40 years, Steve Bhaerman has been testing that theory through his alter ego, Swami Beyondananda—the "Cosmic Comic" famously dubbed the "Mark Twain of our generation." But beneath the rubber nose and "irreverently uplifting" puns lies a serious mission to heal a divided society. In this episode, we sit down with the man behind the Swami to discuss his groundbreaking work with cellular biologist Bruce H. Lipton on Spontaneous Evolution and why humor is the ultimate catalyst for human growth. We explore his "Swami for Precedent" campaign, the courage required to tell the truth through comedy, and what he calls the "Upwising"—a movement of collective wisdom designed to steer us toward a more positive future. Join us for a deep dive into the relationship between laughter and evolution, and learn how comedy can bridge the gaps that logic cannot.
