AI video generators are making storytelling more affordable — and one day, the tools may allow anyone with enough creativity to become a filmmaker. But the same technology can power convincing deepfakes that undermine our shared reality and destabilize our politics. Cristobal Valenzuela, the co-founder and CEO of Runway AI, joins Kara to discuss how its tools are disrupting the advertising and film industries, and why Hollywood studios might not want to admit how much they are using them. They also talk about how Runway is holding its own against (and warding off takeover advances from) much bigger tech players, and the AI video industry's responsibility in preventing deepfakes and political manipulation.

Our second trip to VAL-halla finds Paul, Arlo, and Eric contemplating two very different experiences of Val Kilmer's ‘80s career: Tony Scott's 1986 pro-war classic Top Gun and the 1988 Tolkien rip Willow, helmed by–of all people–Ron Howard. The twist is that the mega-popular Top Gun is a terrible, empty film that survives on aesthetics alone and the notorious flop Willow is a fun little high fantasy romp. The gang discusses the insidious nature of Top Gun, Val's fleeting scenes as Iceman, the superior role of Madmartigan in Willow, and the ominous James Horner horn riff. Plus, The Sandman season 2 arrives on Netflix and Arlo went to see The Fantastic Four: First Steps. NEXT: everybody goes to see Fantastic Four!

Two young saints, one who loved mountaineering and the other rocked Nike sneakers: Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati prove holiness doesn't mean leaving normal life behind—it means living it to the fullest with Christ. Father Dave and Deacon Bob reflect on Pope Leo's homily at the canonization Mass for these two young Italians and explore why so many saints begin saying yes to God in their youth. True to They That Hope form, they take a lap through the weekend in sports, from NFL openers to U.S. Open storylines to the eternal LeBron vs. Jordan debate. Then they settle into the title's theme: modern sanctity. Carlo's wisdom (“In front of the sun you get a tan; in front of the Eucharist, you become a saint”) and Frassati's cry “to the heights!” frame a simple invitation: say yes to the Lord today. They close with campus updates, a prayer, and a warm invitation to share your favorite podcast memories. Saints Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati, pray for us! Highlighted Sections (00:29) Jubilee of Hope and Merch Madness Father Dave and Deacon Bob kick things off with playful banter about sponsors, the Jubilee Year of Hope, and whether the pope might be a secret podcast listener. They also remind everyone there's one last chance to snag They That Hope merch, including the highly prized Heather Khym mug, at CatholicToTheMax.com. (07:24) NFL, Tennis, and the LeBron vs. Jordan Debate They next jump into sports to discuss the NFL's opening weekend, recap the US Open finals, and, of course, argue over The Athletic's “Basketball 100.” Jordan or LeBron? The debate continues. (15:47) Franciscan Homecoming Preview Campus is buzzing for Homecoming Weekend with chapel tours, a St. Francis Festival, and alumni reunions. Father Dave and Deacon Bob share details on the newly renovated Christ the King Chapel and joke about who may—or may not—be getting awards at the banquet. (Pssst, sign up to join Homecoming here.) (21:43) Five Years of Movies, Memes, and Memories Looking back on the podcast's run, the hosts laugh about their obsessions (Hamilton, Top Gun, Black Widow) and reflect on milestones from solar eclipses to campus life during COVID. They recall both joyful and sobering moments, always framed through the lens of hope. (26:16) Modern Saints for Modern Times Next, they move into the heart of the episode: celebrating the canonizations of Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati. Father Dave and Deacon Bob highlight the families present in Rome, the youthful joy of both saints, and the reminder that holiness often begins with a simple yes lived in ordinary life. (32:54) Carlo's Wisdom in His Own Words “In front of the sun you get a tan; in front of the Eucharist, you become a saint!” The hosts share Carlo's best lines on joy, sin, and holiness, and revisit his Eucharistic Miracles project as a reminder of how young people enrich the Church. (35:37) Prayer and Sending Forth The episode closes with gratitude for these new saints, a prayer for their intercession, and a heartfelt thank-you to listeners. As the season draws to a close, Father Dave and Deacon Bob invite fans to send memories and well-wishes to Hope@Franciscan.edu.

This week, we're discussing the music and career of Berlin, a band whose biggest hit was, strangely, not really a Berlin song at all. “Take My Breath Away” soared into the stratosphere on the tailwinds of Top Gun in 1986, but it wasn't a great representation of the sexy, upbeat new wave synth-pop that Berlin was known for. Join us as we journey deep into Berlin to see if they take our breath away, or if we'll just become another Pleasure Victim.

Fighter pilots have “Top Gun.” Race car drivers have “F1” and “Days Of Thunder.” What movie did firefighters have up until 1991 to put their heroics on full display? Nothing. Absolutely nothing, until a director, mostly known for making comedies, decided that firefighters finally get their day in the sun. That director was Ron Howard and the movie that helped the aura of firefighters burn so bright is the movie I'm reviewing in this episode of Movies Merica. That movie is “Backdraft.” Kurt Russell and William Baldwin play Stephen and Brian McCaffrey, two brothers who grew up in a family of firefighters in Chicago. To put it mildly, they don't like each other very much. Stephen is a veteran firefighter and Brian is his younger brother still trying to carve out his niche in life. Brian decides his latest venture is to go into the family biz and fight fire too. Add to the family friction, a series of mysterious deaths due to fires, that may or may not be murder. Many of you have seen this classic, but for you of those who haven't, is it worth checking out? Watch this episode of Movies Merica to find out! “Backdraft” also stars Robert De Niro, Donald Sutherland, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Scott Glenn, Rebecca De Mornay, Jason Gedrick, J.T. Walsh, Tony Mockus Sr., Cedric Young, Juan Ramirez, Kevin Casey, Jack McGee and Mark Wheeler.

Für alle, denen Top Gun noch nicht "Hurra, endlich kann ich die Welt retten und nach Disneyland gehen!" genug war.
In this episode, Guy Bauer, founder and creative director of Umault, shares the single biggest lesson he's learned about marketing: never stop. Through analogies ranging from hand-pumped water wells to Top Gun, Guy explains why consistency matters more than perfection, why most marketing efforts will fail before they succeed, and why hitting pause is the most dangerous move a brand can make. If you've ever been tempted to cut spend or stop campaigns because results look flat, this short, punchy episode will remind you why momentum is everything.

On August 19, 2012, Tony Scott — the British filmmaker best known for high-octane blockbusters like Top Gun, Crimson Tide, and Man on Fire — died by suicide at the age of 68 in Los Angeles. In a career that stretched across three decades, Scott carved out a unique place in Hollywood as a master of adrenaline-fueled spectacle. With his signature visual style — kinetic camerawork, bold color palettes, and an editing pace that matched the heartbeat of his action sequences — he helped redefine what a mainstream action movie could feel like. From working with stars like Tom Cruise and Denzel Washington to pushing the technical limits of action cinema, Scott's influence continues to ripple through blockbuster filmmaking today.

For the first time in a long time, Gobbledygeek dips its beak back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. They've done so for a very special film: Jake Schreier's Thunderbolts*, a return to the MCU's past glories with a tale of outcasts looking for something to believe in. Yelena Belova, the Winter Soldier, U.S. Agent, Red Guardian, Ghost, and Taskmaster come together to form a new kind of Avengers team; one formed under the auspices of none other than Elaine Benes. Paul, Arlo, and Eric–our own band of lovable misfits–discuss Florence Pugh's killer performance, the lovable David Harbour, what Thunderbolts* does differently than most recent MCU films, and much, much more. NEXT: we enter VAL-halla for a second Val Kilmer double feature. This time, it's 1986's Tony Scott pro-war classic Top Gun and 1988's Ron Howard (???) Lord of the Rings rip-off, Willow.

CannCon and Alpha Warrior welcome Lt. General Steve Kwast to SITREP for a powerful conversation on faith, service, and the future of warfare. General Kwast shares his journey from dreaming of flight as a child in Africa to becoming the first pilot straight out of training assigned to the F-15E Strike Eagle. He recounts combat missions in Desert Storm and Afghanistan, the lessons learned in Top Gun training, and the critical role of air power in saving lives on the ground. The discussion dives into situational awareness, the moral burden of combat, and how God-given confidence shapes leadership. Moving into today's battles, Kwast explains the nature of information warfare, the threats of AI and infiltration, and why America's strength lies in its innovation and faith. He emphasizes that the art of war should be about deterrence and peace, not glorification of violence, and that teaching children God's ways is essential to preserving freedom. A candid, wide-ranging interview that connects the heart of a warrior to the challenges of America's future.

From Riga flyovers to AI “investments” that wouldn't even buy a used Ford Ranger, this week's Ops Brief is a buffet of absurdity.

(Laramie, WY) - University of Wyoming football strong safety Andrew Johnson is no stranger to altitude. The Cheyenne-native and Central High School graduate plays at the division one campus with the highest altitude in the nation, 7,220 feet above sea level. After his final season on the gridiron, his goals go even higher. "I've loved aviation since I was a kid," Johnson told County 10 at UW Media Day Monday in Laramie. He explained that he spent much of his off-season flying around Wyoming and Montana, marveling about flying over the Tetons and Big Horn Mountains. "Now, my goal is to become a fighter pilot." Later joking that his favorite movie is 'Top Gun.' While ambitions to become a fighter pilot seem lofty, Andrew has already crossed off his first major life goal. Wearing the brown and gold. "It was my dream since I was a kid. It was everything I ever wanted to do. So when Coach Bohl gave me the opportunity to do so, it was the easiest decision of my life." The former Central High wide receiver and defensive back appeared in 11 games for the Pokes and started 5 of them last year. He recorded 19 solo tackles and 11 assisted tackles. This season, he's expected to be a leader on the Cowboy defense. "We're bringing that toughness back to Wyoming football," Johnson said about summer camp. "Something that I experienced a lot in my early years here and that's something we need to maintain and bring into the season." Catch our full chat with Johnson in the player below! Wyoming football kicks off August 28th against Akron. Listen to every Cowboy football game in Fremont County this season on KOVE Radio, 1330 AM and 107.7 FM!
Yikes! I don't think this is what will get you to be a top gun pilot.
Meet Justin Jackson. There's no friend I admire more. In fact, he's my new favorite podcast guest and will be back for Round 2 in October.Justin's a former Marine gunship pilot with over 25 years of service, who transitioned from combat deployments to entrepreneurship. He's built companies ranging from a cybersecurity firm with elite hackers to a mission-driven brewery honoring Gold Star families.Nowadays, he's a husband, dad, and dog-father to a Rhodesian Ridgeback puppy named Lincoln. Professionally, he leads “On Glideslope,” a leadership development venture.In this episode, we rewind to our high school days at Cy Falls, where Justin took over centerfield duties after I graduated (he was Class of 2000). He had the good fortune of playing for Coach Brent McDonald before playing at the Naval Academy. We discuss the mental & emotional side of baseball.Then we get into the role Top Gun played in Justin deciding to be a Cobra attack helicopter pilot. He talks about the contrast between a quiet Iraq deployment and a much more intense tour in Afghanistan's Helmand Province—flying low over desert landscapes, supporting Marines under fire, and the kind of brotherhood only combat can forge.Justin's a natural storyteller with a rare mix of tenacity and humility.Hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did.

Send us a textScott Sanders didn't just go from Navy E-2 to Admiral—he took that momentum and barrel-rolled straight into crafting world-record bourbon and hunting MIAs in Cambodia. The Ones Ready crew sits down with the Tobacco Barn Distillery co-founder and Tours of Duty partner to talk Navy aviation, smacking SEAL brothers, bourbon snobbery, and what it means to chase purpose post-uniform. If you've ever wanted to drink patriotism straight from a bottle or launch a 500-lb barrel out of a C-130, this episode's for you. Oh, and PSA: don't mix good bourbon with Coke unless you want to get dropkicked by Trent.
Jared Isaacman may be the ultimate embodiment of the American Dream, or possibly the real-life version of Tom Cruise's “Top Gun” character, Maverick. He is a wildly successful businessman who started a billion-dollar company out of his parents' basement when he was a teenager. He has never been in the military, yet he owns and flies his own fighter jets. And in his spare time, he's an astronaut who has worked with SpaceX and became the first civilian in history to perform a spacewalk. When President Trump nominated him to be the new head of NASA, he seemed like an ideal outsider choice who would soar to confirmation. But then, he ran into a firestorm of turbulence that he's not used to navigating: DC politics. Jared sits down with Glenn Beck to tell the story behind that, including whether Elon Musk played a role and why America must defeat China in the AI and space races.
