When Oscar-winning filmmaker Guillermo del Toro was a kid growing up in Guadalajara, Mexico, he would draw monsters all day. His deeply Catholic grandmother even had him exorcised because of it. But when del Toro saw the 1931 film ‘Frankenstein,' his life changed. "I realized I understood my faith or my dogmas better through Frankenstein than through Sunday mass." His adaptation of Mary Shelley's classic book is nominated for nine Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Del Toro spoke with Terry Gross about getting over his fear of death, the design of Frankenstein's creature, and his opinion on generative AI.Also, John Powers reviews the noirish drama ‘Islands.' Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

Guillermo del Toro’s waited his whole life to make a “Frankenstein” movie, and now he’s done it. We carefully select the (Oscar-nominated!) film’s best bits, chop them up, and then sew them back together in the grossest way possible. (We know Del Toro would approve.) You don’t need to have a degree in Frankensteinology to take a seat at the lympahtic charcuterie board, but it helps! Jason Snell with Annette Wierstra, Brian Hamilton, Monty Ashley, Tony Sindelar and Moisés Chiullán.

There have been over 400 versions of Mary Shelley's saga, but Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (2025), brings multiple viewpoints, as well as a new twist. It also raises the question of why this story continues to be told. Does it hold a larger meaning, or is it just a good monster tale?

One Battle After Another earned 13 Oscar nominations - including best picture, best director and a lead actor nomination for Leonardo DiCaprio. In the action-thriller, DiCaprio plays a washed up ex-revolutionary searching for his missing daughter while raging against the machine. In this case, the machine is unabashedly racist, xenophobic, and corrupt. Directed by Paul Thomas Anderson, the ensemble also includes Sean Penn, Teyana Taylor and Benicio del Toro. Today, we're revisiting our episode about the film that originally aired in September 2025.

Sinners received 16 nominations; a record-breaking nomination count for the most in Academy Awards history. The supernatural thriller received nominations for best picture; director (Ryan Coogler); actor (Michael B. Jordan); supporting actress (Wunmi Mosaku); actor in a supporting role (Delroy Lindo); and original screenplay. Timothée Chalamet is 30 years and 26 days old, Chalamet just became the youngest male actor to receive three Oscar nominations since Marlon Brando, who achieved this feat at age 29 in 1954. Steven Spielberg has broken his own record for the most Oscar nominations as a producer, bringing his total to 14 with the nomination for Best Picture for the film "Hamnet." One Battle After Another received 13 nods, including Best Picture.The Snubs:The Cold Shoulder: The Biggest Snubs of the 2026 Oscar NominationsThe Wicked Witch of the West... Gone?The biggest shocker of the morning has to be the complete erasure of Wicked: For Good. Just last year, the first installment picked up 10 nominations. This year? Zero. Zilch.Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, who were both nominated for the first film, were completely shut out of the acting categories. Even the music branch turned its back on the franchise, ignoring the two new songs written specifically for the film. It seems the magic ran out for the sequel.Paul Mescal's Shakespearean TragedyIf you were betting on Paul Mescal picking up a nomination for playing William Shakespeare in Hamnet, you lost money today. While the film itself did well—and his co-star Jessie Buckley secured a nomination—Mescal was noticeably absent from the list. It's a tough break for an actor who has been a darling of the awards circuit lately.The Strange Case of Chase InfinitiHere is a genuine head-scratcher: One Battle After Another is a massive favorite, racking up 13 nominations. Yet, its breakout lead actress, Chase Infiniti, didn't make the cut. Some insiders think her limited screen time (she's in the movie for about 30 minutes) might have hurt her chances, but considering she's the heart of the film, her absence in the Best Actress category is glaring.Guillermo del Toro Gets the "Argo" TreatmentThe Academy clearly loved Netflix's Frankenstein—it scored nine nominations, including Best Picture. But they apparently didn't love Guillermo del Toro quite enough to give him a Best Director nod. The Directors branch is notoriously finicky, and this year, they left the beloved filmmaker off the list.Blockbuster FatigueAvatar: Fire and Ash failed to secure a Best Picture nomination, a category the previous two films sailed into easily. It seems voters might finally be feeling some Pandora fatigue.Star Power Didn't Save ThemBeing an A-lister didn't help anyone this morning.George Clooney & Adam Sandler: Their film Jay Kelly was completely shut out. Usually, a Noah Baumbach movie is catnip for voters, but this one came up empty.Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson: Despite a serious campaign for his dramatic turn in The Smashing Machine, he couldn't crack the lineup.Jennifer Lawrence: She gave a ferocious performance in Die My Love, but the film was likely too gritty and indie for the broader voting body.The show, hosted by Conan O'Brien, airs live on ABC on March 15th.

Hello! Our Oscar Series for this year continues with another Best Picture frontrunner--Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein. It's a visionary adaptation of Mary Shelley's classic fantasy novel. The film features a top-notch cast, including Oscar Isaac as the titular doctor. We have strong opinions, even if they don't match the raves we had for last week's film. Enjoy!

¿Sabías que la Independencia de Venezuela (y de medio continente) es básicamente culpa de un corazón roto? En este episodio de La Casa, Manuel Silva, Natalia Moretti y Samuel Rodríguez se ponen serios (y un poco sentimentales) con Doriann Márquez. Analizamos el matrimonio de Simón Bolívar con María Teresa del Toro, una historia de amor que solo duró 8 meses. Descubrimos cómo un joven Bolívar millonario y enamorado vio su vida destruirse por una fiebre, y cómo esa tragedia fue el "Evento Canónico" necesario para que naciera el Libertador. Doriann nos cuenta los detalles que no salen en los libros aburridos del colegio: ¿Cómo se conocieron? ¿Realmente juró no volver a casarse por amor o por despecho? Prepárate para entender la historia de Venezuela desde el lado humano, trágico y romántico.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein continues to captivate audiences centuries after its publication, but not all adaptations emphasize the same ethical questions. Matthew and returning guest AK dive into both the original novel and Guillermo del Toro's recent film adaptation—not to catalog their differences, but to explore how each medium handles the story's core moral dilemmas and which approach proves more compelling.How Does the Film Emphasize “The Other” Differently?While both the book and film explore themes of parentage, responsibility, and scientific hubris, they emphasize different ethical questions. AK notes that the novel places stronger emphasis on the responsibilities of individuals in medicine and parenting, particularly through the lens of abandonment. The film, however, foregrounds questions about the grotesque other, the monstrous other, and how appearance shapes moral judgment. The visual decisions in del Toro's adaptation—juxtaposing the creature against beautiful backdrops that shift with emotional moments—underscore this emphasis.How Does the Shift from Abandonment to Abuse Change Victor's Responsibility?One of the most striking differences between the book and film lies in Victor Frankenstein's initial interaction with his creation. In Shelley's novel, Victor creates the monster, goes to bed, wakes up, and immediately flees—abandoning the creature with almost no interaction. Del Toro's film takes a dramatically different approach: Victor spends considerable time with the creature, engaging with it in ways impossible in the book. This changes the fundamental ethical question. Does Victor bear responsibility for abandonment and neglect, or for intentional, directed abuse? The film's choice to show an extended period of interaction—where Victor treats the creature as an object rather than a being—shifts the moral weight of his culpability.Why Does the Composite Body Matter More Now Than Ever?Victor's method of selecting “optimal” body parts from different corpses to create his creature resonates uncomfortably with contemporary debates about human enhancement and biotechnology. The discussion explores how Victor's approach—viewing the creature as an optimization project rather than a living being—connects to modern questions about CRISPR, genetic modification, and who decides what constitutes an “optimal” human body. These questions inevitably involve ableism and the commodification of bodies. The film's emphasis on Victor literally selecting bodies at prisons raises urgent parallels to current concerns: Who becomes test subjects for experimental procedures like Neuralink? Are they being viewed as humans or as subjects for experimentation?Other Topics Covered:Why the novel's nested narrative structure (stories within stories) creates a unique moral complexityHow both works explore humanity's relationship to nature, science, and the line between achievement and hubrisThe challenge of adapting works from different historical contexts when what counted as scientific hubris has radically changedThe concept of viewing people as player characters (with their own interiority) versus non-player characters (existing only to advance your plot)Why Frankenstein's relevance grows as biotechnology makes questions of life preservation more immediateThe conversation reveals how both Shelley's novel and del Toro's film use the Frankenstein story to explore timeless questions through different emphases—one focusing on neglect and parental failure, the other on abuse and the othering of those who don't meet conventional standards of beauty or normalcy. **************************************************************************This episode is a production of Superhero Ethics, a The Ethical Panda Podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

Pour lutter contre la baisse des naissances, l'Espagne a fait le pari d'une immigration légale et choisie. Deux millions d'étrangers pour la plupart originaires d'Amérique latine se sont installés en Espagne au cours des sept dernières années. C'est le cas dans la région de Zamora, en Castille-et-León, dans le nord de l'Espagne, où, depuis 2022, une entreprise céréalière fait venir des conducteurs de camions du Pérou ou de Colombie. Ces embauches ont permis de remettre à flot le céréalier et, au passage, de redonner vie au village de Bóveda de Toro.

Kate also discusses working with the cast, designing for Frankenstein's Creature, and how kitty litter may have played a far more surprising role in this film than anyone would expect.It's a chilling, richly artistic dive into one of the year's most captivating films, and a thrilling way to kick off a brand new season of The Art of Costume Podcast.

We're joined by Becky D'Anna, co-host of Sony Pictures Official podcast, Director's Take, for a special jam packed year in review episode! Together, we each share our personal Top 10 Best Films and Top 10 Worst Films of 2025. It's less a debate and more a celebration (and respectful roast) of the year in cinema—comparing notes on horror standouts, unexpected gems, and the films that missed the mark. We dive deep into films like Zach Cregger's Weapons, Ryan Coogler's Sinners, Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Yorgos Lanthimos's Bugonia, Mike Flanagan's Life of Chuck, Alex Garland's 28 Years Later, Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another, and Steven Soderbergh's Presence. Plus, we break down the disappointments, including the Snow White live-action remake, War of the Worlds, and Final Destination: Bloodlines.

Interview with Philip Williams, Director & CEO of IsoEnergy Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/isoenergy-tsxiso-multi-jurisdictional-uranium-portfolio-8580Recording date: 15th January 2026IsoEnergy Ltd. (TSX:ISO) differentiates within the uranium sector through near-term production advancement at the Tony M project in Utah while maintaining exposure to ultra-high-grade exploration upside at the Hurricane deposit in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin. The company has commenced bulk sampling operations at Tony M, extracting approximately 2,000 tons of material for processing at the White Mesa Mill. This program validates three critical decision criteria for full-scale production restart: current operating costs for mining, trucking, and processing; updated capital requirements; and scalability of beneficiation techniques tested on smaller samples that could substantially reduce waste material sent to mill. The strategic toll milling arrangement with Energy Fuels' White Mesa Mill—the only operational conventional uranium mill in the United States—eliminates processing infrastructure capital while providing established metallurgical pathway, as the mill historically processed ore from Tony M during previous 2007-2008 production period. Tony M's existing surface and underground infrastructure substantially reduces restart capital intensity compared to greenfield mine development, positioning the project as IsoEnergy's primary near-term production opportunity. CEO Philip Williams emphasized the competitive advantage: "In our market cap range, there's not so many of them so we want to be one of those producers and be able to deliver material into a rapidly rising uranium price environment which we think is coming in the United States." Concurrently, IsoEnergy has mobilized two drill rigs to Hurricane for a winter campaign exceeding 5,000 meters. The program tests expansion potential within and adjacent to known ultra-high-grade mineralization, extending up to 3 kilometers along structural trend. Hurricane ranks among the world's highest-grade uranium deposits, with exceptional grade concentration reflected in small physical footprint relative to contained uranium. The exploration strategy follows the Athabasca Basin geological model where high-grade deposits form as multiple lenses along structural corridors, suggesting discovery potential for additional proximate ore zones.Portfolio diversification spans multiple development stages and top-tier jurisdictions. Beyond Tony M and Hurricane, IsoEnergy maintains the Coles Hill project in Virginia—a large-scale development opportunity potentially benefiting from federal policy support for domestic production—plus a 50% joint venture with Purepoint Energy exploring additional Athabasca Basin targets. The pending acquisition of Toro Energy, expected to close April 2026, adds Western Australian exposure and development-stage assets.IsoEnergy operates within a bifurcated uranium market where large-cap producers trade at premiums to net asset value while smaller companies trade at substantial discounts, creating consolidation conditions. The company's mid-tier market capitalization provides optionality as both potential acquirer of discounted junior assets and potential target for larger producers seeking high-grade Athabasca Basin exposure. NextGen Energy's 30% ownership provides strategic shareholder stability, while IsoEnergy maintains approximately $60 million in equity positions in smaller uranium companies.Management reports accelerating institutional investor engagement as the production timeline clarifies and uranium market fundamentals strengthen. The recent addition of commercial and marketing expertise signals preparation for uranium sales as production approaches. Near-term catalysts include the Tony M production restart decision following bulk sampling results, Hurricane drilling outcomes, Toro acquisition closure, and potential uranium import policy changes under the Section 232 investigation.Williams acknowledged uranium equity performance ultimately depends on physical price movement despite strong fundamentals: "The space can get ahead of the price for some period of time, but the price has to also move." However, when utility contracting accelerates—whether driven by policy changes, supply disruptions, or other factors—price movements can occur rapidly given concentrated uranium market structure.View IsoEnergy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/isoenergySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Double Tap Episode 444 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics, Primary Arms, Medical Gear Outfitters, Bowers Group, Mitchell Defense, and Flatline Fiber Co   Welcome to Double Tap, episode 444! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Aaron Krieger, Nick Lynch, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 - Dear WLS Anonymous Coward from Nebraska - Dear wls, I have a Mitchell defense bought the green grips to go with the green gun. What would be a good green butt stock or just put on purple butt stock? Still deciding on a flow-through can to put on it. Justin T - This question is for Shawn. In the early parts of Covid, you were going to have a medical class in Canton, Ohio. Ohio shut down so you canceled the class. If you come teach a class at Rivers edge tactical. Can the people that paid for the Canton class come to that one? Ps. A couple shows ago that you guys were talking about a volcanic action pistol I'm fairly certain I seen Tippmann ordnance the same company that has the Glock mag Gatling gun was gonna make a volcanic pistol chambered in .380 and 22lr Trucker Matt - Do any of the cast members have experience with IWA civilian-legal flashbangs, smoke grenades or any of their other products? I've been looking at them and thinking about buying some for "airsoft/paintball", and definitely not for SHTF reasons. Would love your input, or just general thoughts on them even if you have never used them. Thanks. Full-grown Human - Shawn stated that you didn't like we the people holsters, and I had never had any issues with them but I also didn't have to deal with the customer service side of them. I now have had to deal with their half-ass customer service and their subpar duty belts. My question is what issue did you have with them? I don't buy nearly enough guns or gear so I do like to take the advice of people who do. Aside from blue alpha do you have any other companies that the cast would recommend for a duty belt? I don't carry too much on my belt at work but I don't want this cheap made product. Amanda Hungnkiss - I was thinking about getting a Marlin in .357, but then they announced the 10mm model. As a 10mm fan, I was stoked to hear that, but also a bit confused about which one would be the better choice for overall power?Ammo cost isn't a big deal since I already have a 10mm pistol and a 357 revolver. So, which caliber marlin would you pick and why? Robbie R - Ok, hear me out. Gun Fights, but poll the listeners. EXAMPLE, Mitchell Defense rifle, suppressor, optic, maybe accessories. Each cast member makes a package, and listeners vote. Maybe Mitchell Defense offers it as a package. The winner of this week's swag pack is Anonymous Coward from Nebraska!

David James Keaton has been a friend and a peer since the waning days of 2011. Back then, I was starting a podcast and didn't really know what I was doing. He was promoting a book about zombies at a bed and breakfast and podcast were kinda brand new. Since then I've read a ton of his books, he's been on a ton of my podcasts, and we've even gone to a baseball game. But this is a first! Finally, the tables have turned and David has had me as a guest host on his podcast - Almost Good. Almost Good is a podcast where David and a revolving door of guests talk about mostly recent movies - specifically movies that are “Almost good”. But maybe it's just a way to give Dave license to be overly critical? Nah. There's a lot of wit and insight in his episodes, and it's obvious that before he was a respected professor, or an established author, Dave spent a lot of time in video stores (as a customer and an employee) and had built not only a huge body of experience with movies, but also fine tuned his thoughts on what works and what doesn't. Usually I disagree with him (lay person that I am), but on this occasion, when Guillermo del Toro drops a Frankenstein, we managed to feel pretty similar about it. While I did have my gripes with the film, the conversation was great, and he even tricked me into talking about like 30 other movies he recently watched. I hope you enjoy this conversation, and that you're inspired to check out more of David's podcast. For the folks who prefer YouTube: This is a public episode.

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesAs has become par for the course these last few weeks, Marvel Studios released the third Avengers: Doomsday trailer, which focuses on the X-Men, Tuesday morning after an exclusive week run attached to theatrical showings of Avatar Fire and Ash. Sebastian Stan is in talks to join The Batman Part II opposite Robert Pattinson and Scarlett Johansson, making him the second Marvel Cinematic Universe alum to jump to Matt Reeves' Gotham. The Oscar-nominated Apprentice star, best known for playing Bucky Barnes aka the Winter Soldier in multiple Marvel films, would join returning cast members Colin Farrell, Jeffrey Wright and Andy Serkis ahead of spring production for an October 2027 release.Avatar: Fire and Ash crossed the 1 billion dollar mark at the global box office after 18 days in theaters, led by 40 million dollars domestically in its third weekend for a total of 306 million dollars and 777.1 million dollars internationally, making it Disney's third billion-dollar release of 2025. Meanwhile, Netflix's Stranger Things series finale generated between 25 to 28 million dollars from a limited two-day theatrical run across 600 theaters on New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, with exhibitors selling concession vouchers rather than traditional tickets and keeping all revenue themselves as an olive branch between the streamer and theaters. Simu Liu has publicly endorsed his Copenhagen Test co-star Melissa Barrera to play Wonder Woman in James Gunn's DC Universe, praising her stunt training as Wonder Woman-esque and calling her a total badass who puts in the work. DC Studios boss James Gunn confirmed in July that Wonder Woman has not been cast yet and won't be discussed until the script is finished, with Supergirl screenwriter Ana Nogueira tapped to write the new Wonder Woman film.Paul Thomas Anderson's One Battle After Another dominated the Critics Choice Awards on Sunday night, winning Best Picture, Best Director and Best Adapted Screenplay, while Timothée Chalamet won Best Actor for Marty Supreme and Jessie Buckley took Best Actress for Hamnet.

Cameron has indicated he may scale back his hands-on involvement with future Avatar films to pursue other projects, potentially delegating more directorial duties to second unit directors or another filmmaker while remaining as producer.Paramount+ has renewed Mayor of Kingstown for a fifth and final season consisting of eight episodes, down from the usual ten episodes per season. The Taylor Sheridan crime drama starring Jeremy Renner and Edie Falco will conclude after its upcoming season, which follows the bloody Season 4 finale that aired in December 2025.Amazon Prime Video has announced the cast for its Tomb Raider series starring Sophie Turner as Lara Croft, with Sigourney Weaver joining as Evelyn Wallis, a mysterious woman seeking to exploit Lara's talents, and Jason Isaacs as Atlas DeMornay, Lara's uncle. The series, created and co-showrun by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, will also feature several characters from the video game franchise including Bill Paterson as butler Winston and Martin Bobb-Semple as tech support Zip.

This week we're excited to present a conversation with One Battle After Another cast member Benicio del Toro as he discusses his performance in Paul Thomas Anderson's new film that's been heralded as one of the year's finest. This conversation was moderated by FLC Senior Programmer Tyler Wilson. Paul Thomas Anderson's most viscerally thrilling film to date is a total blast, an epic, comic adventure of the weird new America that spans years and stretches from across the treacherous rolling-hill highways of the southwest and beyond. Inspired by Thomas Pynchon's Vineland, but with a flavor and cinematic rush that's pure PTA, One Battle After Another is an exhilarating, ultimately moving portrait of undying commitment to family amidst the mania of our contemporary world.

In this episode, Sidney breaks down the classic Universal monster film Frankenstein (1931) and how it compares to Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein (2025).

Venezuelan expert Quico Toro explains why the removal of Nicolás Maduro feels historic—and yet leaves Venezuela largely unchanged, with the regime's machinery fully intact.  Toro warns that Washington's belief in Rodríguez as a workable "moderate" badly misreads her ideological lineage and incentives. Plus: a spiel on Trump's lies and bombast—why presidential exaggeration is a poor proxy for judging whether high-risk foreign operations actually succeed. And the thickness of Venezuelan oil, Trump blood, and maybe Trump himself.
