On today's True Sunlight Podcast, Co-hosts Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell continue their investigation into the photos and screenshots found on Stephen Smith's phone, learning more about what the Hampton, S.C., teen's life was like leading up to his mysterious death in July 2015. Mandy and Liz revisit two interviews with South Carolina Highway Patrol that — with new context — shed more light on his very last night and on what evidence SLED might have to help them retrace Stephen's steps. Plus, listeners will finally get to hear Stephen's own voice from a video Mandy and Liz found on his iPad... Also on the show, Luna Shark is taking on a new case! This May, Michael Colucci will stand trial — again — for the 2015 murder of his wife, Sara Lynn Moore-Colucci. Michael — a wealthy, prominent and well-connected Charleston-area man — insists that his wife killed herself with a garden hose. His attorney Andy Savage (yes, that one) even suggests that she might have tripped and fallen into the hose and hanged herself. SLED Agent David Owen — remember him from Alex Murdaugh's trial? — and the Attorney General say Michael strangled Sara to death in a fit of anger. This case features a lot of familiar themes and players from the Murdaugh trial, including the twists and turns that seem to have come right off the pages of a novel... On Tuesday, we published one of our Top Five Favorite episodes of Cup of Justice! We interviewed Emmy Award Winning Journalist and TV Host Tamron Hall. Tamron was on the TODAY Show in Mandy's early days of journalism and she deeply admired how she handled stories. So, y'all… give episode 69 of COJ a listen to learn all about her new book 'Watch Where They Hide', the attached scripted series and bias in journalism. We promise it's a good one!

WHOA!!! Here's our 75th episode, not including bonus episodes! I can't believe it - well, yeah, I can, whatever. This week we're keeping The Professionals Series going with our favorite Grifters - Con Men/Con Women, etc. This started out being a very easy list for me, but then again I was trying not to be overly obvious. I did trump my sister on a couple of movies, though - one of which I could have sworn we'd watched together, but I'll be quite excited to watch them with her when I visit in April. If you've tried to send us an email in the past few weeks, you probably thought we were making up that address...well, we weren't, I just forgot to renew our domain - oops. I'm hoping that explains the lack of engagement from our community, LOL. So that email is: hello@thetopfivepodcast.com. Let us know if there's a topic you want us to take on!!

I don't know about y'all, but I could talk about movie cops in a dozen different ways - and I think even Annie would say the same. You often get cops in buddy movies - like Riggs and Murtaugh, Tango and Cash, etc. And then you have the franchise people - for which we do have something to say in this episode. And we haven't even talked about TV cops yet at all. I am trying my darndest not to break Annie's rule after our first episode on teachers. Hope you enjoy this episode. We still have a ton of professions to get through! For example: Con Artists Retail Workers Soldiers Priests Um....Prostitutes Do you have one you'd like us to take on?

Okay, raise your hand if this is your favorite series so far? It might be mine, I haven't decided yet. But we sure are having a lot of fun. This week, for The Professionals Series, we are talking about our favorite characters who are playing Actors. That's right - actors playing actors, who knew? Talking about these characters was great fun for us. While he didn't make the list, I continue to think about Leonardo DiCaprio's performace in a little Woody Allen movie called CELEBRITY, from 1998. This was, of course, coming off of Leo's huge star-making turn in TITANIC so it's ironic that he's an actor playing a typical celebrity actor. Maybe not so many women in his bed, though, I don't know. Just like any other role, actors playing actors dive deep into research. They study the mannerisms, speech patterns, and body language of actors both past and present to capture the essence of their character's profession. Actors portraying actors might find themselves reflecting on their own experiences in the industry. Drawing from personal anecdotes, struggles, and triumphs can add authenticity to their portrayal and create a layered performance that resonates with audiences (Annie and I had 1 bit of overlap in this show, and it's definitely a reflection of this point here.) What do you think of our list? We'd love to hear your thoughts - hello@thetopfivepodcast.com
Welcome to the next episode in our Professionals Series - DOCTORS. Doctors, the real-life heroes in the medical drama of life. Representing them correctly in movies? Oh, it's crucial! Setting Realistic Expectations: Ever notice how in movies, doctors seem to have the superpower of solving complex cases in an hour? Let's talk about the importance of setting realistic expectations. Medicine is more than just quick diagnoses; it's about diligence, teamwork, and sometimes, the reality of uncertainty. Humanizing the White Coat: Doctors aren't just walking textbooks with stethoscopes. Accurate portrayals help humanize them, showcasing the emotional toll, personal sacrifices, and the occasional self-doubt. It's like adding vibrant colors to the canvas, making the narrative richer and more relatable. Reflecting Diversity in Medicine: Doctors are a diverse group. Movies should reflect this diversity, breaking away from the one-size-fits-all portrayal. Whether it's different specialties, backgrounds, or challenges, let's celebrate the multifaceted world of medicine. Highlighting Ethical Dilemmas: Medicine often involves navigating ethical minefields. From tough decisions to moral dilemmas, movies can explore these aspects, sparking important conversations about the complexities doctors face. Addressing Mental Health in Medicine: Doctors are human, too, dealing with the weight of responsibility and high-stakes situations. Addressing the mental health aspect in movies helps destigmatize seeking help and emphasizes the importance of well-being in the medical profession. Let us know how you feel about our approach to this show as well as our choices! We want to hear from you!
Welcome back to the show and our new Professionals Series! Now that Annie and I have really started digging into this, I think you're going to be THRILLED with what is coming around the bend. Doctors Con Artists Priests "Sex-Workers" What ideas do YOU have for professionals we should add to the series? This episode features ZERO overlap and ZERO cheating by me, mostly - and you'll also get to hear from my niece, Emily, who was home from college for the weekend. Always exciting when Annie's kids join us on the show! Give us some feedback, people - we WANT it! hello@thetopfivepodcast.com
In this episode of the 'top five' podcast, my sister Annie and I launched a new series where we explore portrayals of different careers in movies. We opted to start with Teaching, with this episode making me reflect back on our "Top Five Movies About College" episode. Despite veering off the beaten path, we discuss both movies and characterizations that we think reflect disparate elements of the education system and the teaching profession as a whole. It was a unique discussion as Annie and I approached this series concept differently but it gave us context for the series, which I do anticipate will be a BIG one. We're already working on Doctors, Lawyers, Prostitutes (why not?), and...well, what ideas do y'all have? We want to hear them!! Email us today: hello@thetopfivepodcast.com and give us some suggestions for The Professionals Series!
Happy New Year, Top Five Fans! And major apologies for taking almost a month off and not telling y'all about it. Between Annie and me, we just needed to take a Tech Time Out. But we are BACK and super duper excited for 2024!! Today's episode is highlighting characters from the incredible film career of one Gary Oldman - Oscar-winning Chameleon Actor who is all things sexy, hard-core, and funny...not to mention dangerous, deep, over-the-top, and a variety of other superlative adjectives. Where Gary Oldman is concerned, I always yield to my sister's knowledge of his films because she "found him" first! She shares a story of how she discovered his films that always makes me nostagic for our college years together. Anyway: here's a few more deets on today's episode: The hosts share detailed insights into movies like Sid and Nancy, The Professional, True Romance, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and others. They also discuss their love for the actor himself and his incredible range, noting how he often completely transforms into his characters, making him a favorite actor to many other celebrities. The episode also explores topics such as Oldman's lesser-known roles and the movies the hosts recommend people watch. Did any of these roles make YOUR list? Send us an email and let us know! hello@thetopfivepodcast.com

We're up to the second episode of our Guilty Pleasure Series - and after the Movies Episode, which was very difficult for Annie, bless her heart, we are back with our favorite Guilty Pleasure TV shows and this one was just a tad bit easier. Still silly. Remember - guilty pleasures are like the secret stash of chocolate you hide in your desk drawers – they're indulgent and maybe a tad bit naughty. And yet, even though they are guilty pleasures, we don't always feel super guilty at all, do we? And what are the defining characteristics of guilty pleasure shows anyway? Well, first off, they often defy the norms of what's considered "high-brow" or "cultured." It's that guilty feeling you get when you know you probably should be reading a classic novel but, instead, you're binge-watching a reality show. They also tend to be a bit over-the-top, whether it's the drama, the humor, or the sheer outrageousness of it all. It's like they crank everything up to 11 (from SPINAL TAP, which could in itself be a Guilty Pleasure, haha), and we can't help but be drawn in. Plus, guilty pleasures often provide a quick fix of entertainment – no need to overthink, just enjoy the ride.
Well - y'all know we HATE to be behind on these shows, but sometimes life just gets in the way, right? Apologies all around for keeping you hanging for - OMG - three weeks. I mean, we get to start missing it, too, LOL. So this new series is all about The Guilty Pleasure. Heather Z. and I were working up an episode on Guilty Pleasure TV shows, but then Annie dropped the series idea into my lap and we were off to the races. And let's just all make fun of my sister for just two seconds - she really had a tough time with this first episode: Guilty Pleasure Movies. But before we go too far into embarrassing my amazing co-host, let's just break down what we mean by Guilty Pleasure... A guilty pleasure is like that secret stash of chocolate you keep hidden in your desk drawer (or, as in my case, Jolly Rancher candy) – you know you shouldn't indulge too much, but you simply can't resist. It's those movies, songs, or activities that bring us immense joy, even if they don't necessarily align with our usual taste or the highbrow standards of society. Guilty pleasures often have a certain addictive quality, a magnetic pull that draws us in, leaving us utterly captivated...or ashamed and embarassed. Now, let's talk about how they differ from cult classics. Cult classics are like those vintage vinyl records that only true connoisseurs appreciate. They're not just loved; they're adored, celebrated, and embraced by a devoted fanbase. Cult classics usually have a niche appeal, captivating a specific group of enthusiasts with their unique charm, quirky characters, or unconventional storytelling. These gems achieve a level of cult status because they resonate deeply with their audience, creating a shared sense of belonging among fans. So, while both guilty pleasures and cult classics bring us immense joy, the distinction lies in their reception. Guilty pleasures might be seen as indulgent delights we enjoy privately, while cult classics are cherished openly, forming connections and communities around their magnetic allure. It's fascinating how these different forms of entertainment enrich our lives, isn't it? And thus, yet another reason why you can't help but appreciate this show, am I right? So - enjoy! Make fun of us all you want, LOL. And, hey, we want to know what you think!! Send us an email: hello@thetopfivepodcast.com. Tell us your thoughts, and get ready for the next episode in the series!

So we're here this week to close out the country music series - we think, anyway - and as a Belated Labor Day show, we are honoring the World of Work. this little episode features songs that honor the work day, but even though the term "working class hero" does refer to blue-collar, Annie and I reflect on our own hourly-worker experiences as well as job transitions, etc. I think y'all will enjoy these songs! Yes, there is a playlist, but it's not complete due to a certain country artist's big-time streaming deal...but no worries. I'll try to get Annie to make us an Amazon Music Playlist, too! Enjoy!!!
Whoa, sports movies!! What is it about these films that give us such a charge?? Movies about sports have this magical ability to captivate us because they tap into our deepest emotions and passions. They're not just about the game; they're about the human spirit, determination, and the triumph of the underdog. When we watch these films, we're not just witnessing a match; we're going on an emotional rollercoaster ride. We cheer for the underdogs, empathize with their struggles, and feel a surge of adrenaline during those intense game moments. These movies often showcase teamwork, dedication, and the pursuit of excellence, which are qualities that resonate deeply with us as humans. Plus, sports movies tend to have fantastic storytelling. They weave compelling narratives around the games, adding layers of drama, friendship, love, and sometimes even humor. It's this combination of relatable characters, powerful storytelling, and the thrill of competition that makes sports movies so incredibly exciting and universally loved. They inspire us, make us believe in ourselves, and remind us that with determination and heart, anything is possible!

Maybe it's because both Annie and me didn't really get into country music until our adult years - and in both cases, that was around the late '90s and early 2000s - but we still feel compelled to continue the country music series AND the concept of our favorite "whatever" in The New Millenium...but that is the theme for today's Country Music Series Episode. Although Annie and I didn't just stumble on country music. There are, indeed, a wealth of factors that brought country music into mainstream musical/pop culture: Crossover Success Country artists like Shania Twain and Faith Hill gained widespread popularity by crossing over into mainstream pop music, attracting a larger and more diverse audience. Bro-Country The emergence of the "bro-country" subgenre, characterized by party-themed lyrics and a fusion of country and rock elements, led by artists such as Luke Bryan and Florida Georgia Line, contributed to a new wave of listeners embracing country music. Digital and Online Platforms The rise of digital platforms and online streaming allowed country music to reach a global audience more easily, breaking down geographical barriers and fostering the growth of new artists and fan communities. And then there's the Country Concert Experience: Country music concerts provided fans with an opportunity to experience their favorite artists and songs in a live setting. The energetic performances and interactions between artists and fans helped create a strong sense of community and connection. Many country artists embarked on extensive tours during the 2000s, often collaborating with other artists for joint tours or music festivals. These tours not only showcased the individual talents of artists but also exposed audiences to a variety of country music styles. The 2000s saw the rise of country music festivals, such as the CMA Music Festival and Stagecoach Festival. These events brought together a diverse lineup of country artists and attracted attendees from all over the country, contributing to the genre's visibility and popularity. Successful country music tours and concerts served as effective marketing tools for artists and their albums. They helped boost album sales, increase radio airplay, and elevate the overall profile of country music. and, of course, the Apple Music Playlist can be found HERE. ENJOY!!!!
Welcome back!! We wouldn't be doing our due diligence if we didn't give the ladies a chance to be featured for that whole Character Actor thing. We talked about our favorite five fellas a couple of weeks ago, now we'll dish about the ladies! To be clear, what makes someone a "Character Actress?" A 'character actress' typically refers to an actress who specializes in playing distinctive, unique, and often supporting roles that are memorable due to their personality, appearance, or quirks. These roles often deviate from conventional leading or romantic roles and require the ability to portray a wide range of characters. Character actresses are known for their versatility, transformative performances, and ability to bring depth to supporting roles, adding richness to the storytelling. We also somewhat operated under the same "code" from the Character Actor episode, which basically identified these rules, as previously posted on New York Magazine's VULTURE site: ➼ The Jenkins Rule: If a performer has been nominated for an Oscar, that performer is ineligible. ➼ The Dowd-Martindale Rule: If a performer has won a lead or supporting actor Emmy, that performer is ineligible. (Winners of an Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor are permitted.) ➼ The Hahn Rule: If a performer currently works primarily as a lead, that performer is ineligible. OH NO! Spoiler Alert!!!! Does anyone with the last name Hahn or Martindale factor into today's episode? I guess you'll have to listen and see!!
I am quite surprised that it took us more than a year to get down with Country Music, but I'm really glad that we have, AND that we're starting this special "mini-series" with our favorite Drinkin' Songs. Annie and I both went to high school in rural Arkansas, and the first thing we ever learned about country music (having just moved from Chicago) was that there were three subjects covered: My Truck, My Momma (or My Grandma), and My Beer, or whatever other liquor you had around. Now that's about as simplistic as country music can get but shoot...who doesn't love a country song about drinkin'? Country Music Duets and our favorite tunes in the 2000's are coming next - and if you have any suggestions for country music Top Five LIsts, just shoot us an email: hello@thetopfivepodcast.com And you are seriously a big old fool if you don't fall in LOVE with this playlist! it's pretty freaking epic if I do say so myself! Check it out HERE.

Welcome back to another fun show! Sorry that we've sort of been hit-and-miss since Annie returned from Europe. Working this whole 4/10 schedule usually means I'm home by 6 pm and that's a little late for my Central-Time Co-Host Sibling to get started recording. But don't you worry - the 4/10's will be ending SOON! Meanwhile, you're going to hear Annie and I talk alot about "New Millenium" things in the next few episodes. Yeah, we know - that was, like, 23 years ago...but the good news about that is there was incredibly good music being cranked out during those early years. The early 2000's were my years living in Chicago, Arizona, and Nashville all before moving to California - I hosted a karaoke show in Chicago, discovered country music in Arizona, and you can bet your ass that I loaded up on a TON of musical influences during my 18 months living in Nashville. Regardless - as Annie and I were kicking up new show ideas, this whole "Our Fave Cover Songs of The New Millenium" seemed an obvious choice and I do hope that you'll enjoy our selections. And is there a playlist? OMG - you're darn tootin' there is! You can find that bad boy RIGHT HERE. ALTHOUGH - there are three of our songs that you can't find on Apple Music (BIG TIME SAD FACE). But not to worry - we have links to them here! BETTER MAN - Sugarland 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover - Miley Cyrus Can't Help Falling in Love - 21 Pilots ENJOY!!!
