This week, we light a candle for lost legends and torch a few bad takes. In Follow Up, Molly White reminds us that giving a damn still matters—despite the rising tide of apathy (and flaming robotaxis in downtown L.A.). Protesters across the country chant “No Kings!” while Elon does his best impression of a bootlicker groveling back to Trump. Meanwhile, we take a moment to reflect on 2025's greatest hits: riots, rollbacks, and rampant idiocy.In the news, Uber decides buses are cool again—but shittier and more expensive. The UK jumps into the robotaxi game while Tesla, shockingly, misses another launch date. French Tesla fans are suing over the brand's fashy vibes, Google is ghosting employees via buyout, and Meta's trying to buy its way to artificial godhood. Oh, and Trump's launching an AI chatbot. What could go wrong? Elsewhere, China turns off AI so kids can cheat the old-fashioned way, Disney and Universal are gunning for Midjourney, and Shopify goes stablecoin with Coinbase and Stripe.Media Candy's popping off: Foundation returns, Strange New Worlds prepares for its final warp, and Spaceballs is back—with the original cast! Meanwhile, we review Mythfits, Princess of Power, and the slow striptease that is David Zaslav's credibility. On the gadget front: forget your canned air—go full vacuum-blower-keyboard-cleaner madness. And in The Dark Side with Dave, stormtroopers vlog, AI kills joy, and we race the beam in retro game land. Finally, we say goodbye to a few greats—Sly Stone, Brian Wilson, Ananda Lewis, Douglas McCarthy, and Apple legend Bill Atkinson.

The year 2000 ushered in an era of shiny newness – from metallic clothing and furniture to a computer evolution turned tech revolution – alongside generation-defining events: a housing and financial crisis, 9/11 and early public recognition of climate change. Author Colette Shade argues the socio-cultural shifts ushered in during the early 2000s remain significant today in her debut book, “Y2K: How the 2000s Became Everything (Essays on the Future That Never Was.)” It's our March selection for Bookmarked: the “Under the Radar” book club.

Send us a textSonny Sandoval, the legendary frontman of P.O.D., joins Vulgar Display of Podcast to talk about his journey from the streets of Southtown to the heights of the music industry. In his new book, Son of Southtown, Sonny shares his raw and unfiltered story—overcoming adversity, finding true faith, and navigating the complex world of nu-metal as a band that was too Christian for the world and too secular for the church.From playing underground shows to dominating MTV's Total Request Live and performing in New York just weeks after 9/11, Sonny has lived on the edge between two worlds—always walking with passion and integrity. We dive deep into his struggles with identity, the power of Youth of a Nation, and why his message is more relevant today than ever.

Colette Shade [Y2K: How the 2000's Became Everything (essays on a future that never was)] joins the lads in Odyssey for some eXtreme adventures in cliques, Y2K paranoia, and the Odyssians' forever war with the people of Rakistan. Topics include Y2K aesthetics, being jumpscared by John Avery Whittaker, and what it means to have nostalgia for an optimistic techno future that never came to pass.   Colette Shade: Website // Instagram // Twitter // Bluesky   Y2K: How the 2000's Became Everything (essays on a future that never was) (CLICK HERE TO GET YOUR COPY!): In Y2K, one of our most brilliant young critics Colette Shade offers a darkly funny meditation on everything from the pop culture to the political economy of the period.

On today's episode, we are graced with Kristen Maldonado, a vibrant storyteller whose passion for pop culture and digital strategy has led her to roles like Social Media Manager at MTV's "Total Request Live." Kristen's journey from theater major to social media powerhouse is nothing short of inspiring, filled with twists, determination, and a lot of heart.Kristen started her career as a theater enthusiast before pivoting into journalism, where she discovered her love for entertainment reporting. Reflecting on her college days, she shares how a late switch to journalism opened doors, ultimately landing her a life-changing internship at Viacom. Her trajectory underscores a powerful lesson: "You have to do the work yourself; no one is going to hand it to you." This mantra has guided her through internships and into the digital realm of social media management, where she now thrives.Her passion for storytelling shines as she recounts her experience managing social media for iconic brands like MTV. Kristen explains the delicate art of digital strategy, where authenticity reigns supreme. “It's not just about putting content out there; it's about creating something people can genuinely connect with,” she emphasizes.From cutting viral clips for shows like "Ridiculousness" to brainstorming strategies for new TV launches, her work exemplifies the intersection of creativity and precision.Kristen's love for pop culture doesn't stop at her professional life; it spills over into her personal projects, including her YouTube channel. Here, she dives into reviews, interviews, and discussions about everything from movies to books. This channel, she says, started as a way to share her voice and explore her passions: “No one was going to put me on air, so I created my own platform.” Her journey as a content creator mirrors the entrepreneurial spirit she encourages in others.But even in a world of likes, retweets, and shares, challenges abound. Kristen talks about dealing with trolls and negativity, both on professional and personal platforms. Her response? Grace and kindness. “If someone doesn't like what I post, it's fine—they still watched it,” she quips. Her approach speaks volumes about maintaining balance and perspective in the sometimes chaotic digital landscape.Kristen also shares insights into the evolving social media landscape. She discusses the importance of natively posting content tailored to specific platforms, noting how even small details like video dimensions can influence engagement. The key, she says, is to stay authentic while paying close attention to what resonates with audiences.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/indie-film-hustle-a-filmmaking-podcast--2664729/support.

Today, I share a little about my dream job(s) and reflect on how pivotal moments have shaped my career aspirations. Growing up, I was inspired by MTV and envisioned myself as a VJ like Carson Daly on Total Request Live, immersed in music, celebrities, and engaging conversations. However, my journey took a different turn after struggling with a mass communication law class, which led me to shift my major to business. I still dream of being a part of The View, where I could participate in meaningful discussions and share diverse perspectives. What would your dream job be if you had the chance to pursue anything without the constraints of reality?Companies mentioned in this episode: MTV UCF Total Request Live The View Resources: To listen in on more conversations about pivotal moments that changed lives forever, subscribe to "The Life Shift" on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Watch this episode on YouTube.I'm so excited to share this new conversation with my good friend, colleague, and guide Quddus Philippe.Quddus is a sound facilitator, psychedelic guide and the founder of Sound Sanctuary Academy. Surrounded by the instruments he calls his “bandmates”, he guides individuals and groups through life-changing sound and psychedelic experiences. He is based in Amsterdam.Originally from humble beginnings in Canada, Quddus started his career as a campus radio DJ and then made a quantum leap, replacing Carson Daly as the host of MTV's iconic show, Total Request Live. Describing his impact, TIME Magazine called Quddus “one of pop culture's foremost tastemakers.”Q has been on quite a journey since then. After exploring the world of personal development and becoming a certified life coach, it was a shamanic training that inspired a more spiritual awakening and the spark to work with sound. Quddus proceeded to study under 3 of the best sound practitioners in the world and now he gets invited by people all over the world to deliver his uniquely empowering journey with sound.What I love most about Quddus is the conviction, audacity, and love with which he pursues his calling and amplifies others doing the same.In this conversation, we explore Q's journey — what it was like for him going from being on TV in front of millions of people to facilitating small, intimate sound ceremonies.We discuss the power of sound, meditation, and psychedelics to open us to our deeper truth and reveal the calling and the power of our souls.We discuss the tension that can exist between soul and scale, and how to approach that tension in a creative, aligned way.And finally, we discuss the path of becoming a shamanic practitioner, what makes a true and trustworthy shaman, how to navigate choosing practitioners that you work with, and in general, demystifying the complex topic of shamanism through the simple lens of “working in service of love.”--If you enjoyed this conversation and are seeking deeper purpose and presence in your life, you'd likely be an amazing fit to join me on The Vision Quest I am leading next month in Southern Arizona.The quest is a weeklong wilderness-based ceremony that helps you travel more deeply within yourself than you have ever been before and get the answers you've been longing for.If Quddus' message about transforming pain into purpose resonates with you, I couldn't recommend The Vision Quest more highly.I feel the same way about guiding quests as Quddus feels about facilitating with sound. This was the journey that fundamentally changed my life for the better ten years ago, when I was depressed, stuck, and lost. There is nothing more fulfilling in the world for me than guiding others on this same journey and witnessing the incredible magic, purpose, and presence it brings into their lives.What gifts and insights will you uncover when it's just you and nature?Check out the full details and apply here: https://soulfulimpact.co/quest--Links & Resources* Follow Brooks on Instagram or LinkedIn* Soulful Impact: soulfulimpact.co* Follow Quddus on Instagram* Sound Sanctuary: soundsanctuary.org* The Creator Incubator: quddus.co/mastermind* Beyul Retreat: beyulretreat.com* New York Times magic mushrooms brain scan article* Get newsletter updates & future episodes delivered to your inbox: Subscribe to Soulful Impact on Substack Get full access to Soulful Impact at www.soulfulimpact.blog/subscribe

Tread Perilously starts the summer Total Request Live with the debut episode of the forgotten ABC TV series The Charmings.  Waking up after a 1000-year sleeping curse, Snow White Charming, her husband Eric, and their sons find themselves in 1980s Los Angeles. They attempt to re-establish some sort of life with a home, new neighbors, and a new school for the boys. But when Snow's stepmother, Lillian White, suggests they'll never fit in and a note from the school's psychologist puts the family on blast, will Snow and Eric accept that they must lie to make modern life work? Erik, of course, watched The Charmings when it aired. Justin wonders, "why is this?" The pair try to determine all the things the pilot is missing. They also try to figure out who would've been the "budget John Mahoney" at the time. A digression about The Birdcage happens immediately. The endless abyss outside Castle Grayskull becomes incredibly important. The problems with the show's premise are explored -- including a solution to its biggest conceptual fault -- a few casting changes are proposed, and Erik shocks Justin by revealing the presence of First Hobie as one of the Charming sons. Also, a nostalgic feeling for the soft-spoken man selling speakers by the highway emerges.

Reflecting on "Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace" twenty-five years after its release, it's clear the film has made significant contributions to the Star Wars saga. From introducing controversial concepts to unforgettable characters and groundbreaking sequences, let's rank the top five contributions from the film, from number five to number one.5. Midi-ChloriansMidi-chlorians, introduced as microscopic life forms residing in all living cells, form a symbiotic relationship with their hosts, providing a biological explanation for the Force. Qui-Gon Jinn explains to a young Anakin Skywalker that without these midi-chlorians, life and the Force as known in the Star Wars universe could not exist. Anakin's exceptionally high midi-chlorian count signified his extraordinary potential, though this concept faced backlash and was largely sidelined for years. It has recently been reintroduced in the animated series "The Bad Batch," suggesting a revival of interest in the term.4. The PodraceThe Boonta Eve Classic podrace, inspired by the chariot race in "Ben-Hur," was a visual and auditory marvel that George Lucas waited years to bring to life. This sequence pushed the boundaries of special effects technology of its time, featuring advanced speeder bike designs and groundbreaking sound effects. Notably, the race is mostly devoid of music, emphasizing the raw, visceral experience of the event. This scene remains a standout for its thrilling pace and innovative execution.3. Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan KenobiEwan McGregor's portrayal of Obi-Wan Kenobi stands as one of the most beloved elements of the prequel trilogy. Despite mixed reactions to the trilogy, McGregor's performance was widely praised, and his enthusiasm for the role never waned. After "Revenge of the Sith," it seemed his time as Obi-Wan had ended, but the rise of social media rekindled fan interest, ultimately leading to McGregor's return in the upcoming "Obi-Wan Kenobi" series. His casting remains a defining legacy of "The Phantom Menace."2. Darth MaulDarth Maul, with his striking appearance and formidable combat skills, quickly became a fan-favorite villain. Though seemingly killed off in "The Phantom Menace," his character was resurrected in "The Clone Wars" and "Rebels," allowing for deeper exploration and development. Maul's survival and continued storyline, including significant arcs in "The Clone Wars" and the "Son of Dathomir" comic series, underscore his lasting impact on the Star Wars narrative.1. Duel of the FatesThe climactic lightsaber battle between Obi-Wan Kenobi, Qui-Gon Jinn, and Darth Maul, known as the Duel of the Fates, is one of the most iconic scenes in Star Wars history. Accompanied by John Williams' epic score, performed by the London Symphony Orchestra and London Voices, this sequence combines intense choreography with powerful music, enhancing its emotional and dramatic impact. The track "Duel of the Fates" became an instant classic, even debuting on MTV's Total Request Live, and continues to be a touchstone of the franchise's musical legacy."The Phantom Menace" might have divided opinions upon its release, but its contributions have undeniably shaped the Star Wars universe in enduring ways. From introducing new lore and characters to pushing the boundaries of film technology and music, its legacy remains influential and celebrated by fans old and new.

After recent episodes on Mariah and Nirvana, two artists who had massive career-defining moments on MTV's iconic live showcase Unplugged, Louie invited authors of the book I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, Craig Marks and Rob Tannenbaum to chronicle the history of the series: how it started, why it was important, and which pop stars gave the most indelible performances.

The Queen of Quarantween, legend of the golden TRL era & celebrity expert Jessie Kanevsky joins the podcast to talk about the most recent celebrity wedding phenomenon - Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley take the Jersey Shore! Which leads into a conversation about Taylor Swift, Karlie Kloss, The Jonas Brothers and Kevin Jonas's recent venture on Claim to Fame. But first, Devin talks about a recent encounter with an ex-boyfriend who took her for granted and whether the mission for closure (getting on the bus in a crop top to go to your ex's studio apartment) is worth it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this one, Cody talks to Josh Boots. He's been a fixture in the Alaska rap scene since the 90s, back when he helped form Arctic Flow Records. It's a legacy that solidified him as one of the best, most authentic lyricists in Alaska. He says that he and the rest of Arctic Flow truly believed that they would one day take over the world with their music. It was a belief and a dream supported by talent and selling weed. That was a big part of maintaining the dream for Josh — the weed — it brought in the money that supported his lifestyle. Since 18, that was mainly what he did for work. Now, at 44, he owns and operates a legal dispensary in Anchorage. He says that making that transition from the traditional market to the legal one was a huge jump, but there are similarities. Like how you treat the customer and how you operate in the industry. Those principles that kept him successful in the old market are now crossing over into this new, legal market. There was this moment when he was mixing his first album, “Cold Weather Survival Guide,” at Unique Studios in Time Square. He was looking out of a 10th story window thinking, “We're here. We made it.” Partly because all of the action outside — the Puerto Rican Day Parade was going on and he had a clear view of Total Request Live — and partly because of all the greats who had recorded at that same studio. James Brown, Ice T, Tupac, Nas, Madonna, Public Enemy, Big Pun, Mobb Deep, the list goes on. And now, at 21 years old, Josh was there too. It was a dream come true. The rebellious kid who had little to no supervision and a tumultuous upbringing, just running up and down the streets of Muldoon causing trouble, was now on the path to being a household name. But he had to make a choice: Chase this rap dream or be a family man. He and his wife were in their 20s and they were starting to have kids — they would eventually have six — and he wanted to give them the upbringing that he never had. Although he never wanted for anything, including love and affection, he grew up in a rough household with lots of partying, drugs and alcohol, and he knew that's not the environment he wanted to raise his own kids in. So, he chose to be a family man instead of a rapper. It's a decision he's thought a lot about over the years. Did he give up on his dream or did he follow his destiny? Ask him and he'll tell you, what happened is what was supposed to happen. PHOTO / Leif Ramos

Tread Perilously opens Total Request Live -- its semiannual Patreon subscriber request month -- with an episode of Killjoys called "A Glitch in the System." When Dutch and John find an abandoned freighter in an asteroid belt, they believe it to be an easy salvage. But soon they discover they are not alone on board and that the ship's mission was anything but harmless. Meanwhile, D'avin's memory issues are not helped when he befriends one of the people they find on the vessel: a suspicious custodian answering to the name "Hogan." Will he discover the meaning of Red 17 or will the Killjoys risk their lives to escape his questions? Erik and Justin are both enamored with star Hannah John-Kamen. Erik learns to tell the Ashmore Twins apart. The Trivago guy and the Event Horizon haunt the proceedings. The current state of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Secret Invasion are litigated. David from Prometheus barges in. Other sci-fi films are also discussed. The pair advise against deep space research vessels. Dylan Baker emerges as the preferred Lizard. The rapport between Aaron Ashmore's John and Luke Macfarlane's D'avin gets praise. The pair will never stop being angry about Battlestar Galactica and they accidentally create a new CBS detective show.

Alecia Moore was so fearless, they put an exclamation point in her name. Pink—a.k.a. P!nk—was full of bravado from the moment she broke at the turn of the millennium, singing a frothy style of teen pop&B. She was promoted as ethnically ambiguous and sold to white and Black audiences as a sassy Total Request Live starlet. She even joined an all-star remake of “Lady Marmalade.” But Pink felt misrepresented, even Missundaztood—so she recorded an album by that name, fusing rock guitar, dance beats and filter-free lyrics. She called out shiftless boyfriends, other pop stars, even the president of her record label in the lyrics of her hits, becoming the pop fan's rock star. Join Chris Molanphy as he explains how Pink defined her own genre fusing punk attitude and soaring melodies into 21st-century self-empowerment music. She made herself into a rock star, simply by calling herself one. Who knew? Podcast production by Kevin Bendis.
