H.R. McMaster joins Steve and Charles to take stock of the war in the Middle East. Though a tank man by training, H.R. is no stranger to thinking about our capabilities and how they stack up against our foes—both the enemy in Iran and the aggressors backing them up. Plus, Cooke and Hayward can't help but feel a bit of relief that there's a bit less Erlichian misanthropy in the world; consider newly reported accusations against Caesar Chavez that could prove fatal to the progressive hero's reputation; and they round the necrologies out with a salute to the immortal Chuck Norris. Sounds from this week's open: Cesar Chavez at UCLA in 1972, Paul Erlich (Growth Busters, 2007) and Chuck Norris on… Chuck Norris (Full Measure, 2017)

Today is my conversation with our consultant Mike Linn. His background of 25 years with UCLA gymnasts as the Athletic Performance training coach and current work with club gymnastics teams is very insightful. He prepares athletes to be fit and strong which impacts their results each season. I also recommend hiring Mike to give the athlete a step up day one when they report to their college teams

Colorectal cancer is one of the few cancers that can often be prevented through screening, yet far too many people aren’t getting screened on time. In this episode of Medically Speaking, Dr. Eve Glazier welcomes back the show’s very first guest, award-winning journalist Katie Couric, for an ongoing conversation and call to action for Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. Joined by Fola May, MD, PhD, UCLA gastroenterologist, and researcher, they discuss what’s changed in the conversation around colorectal cancer, why screening matters more than ever, the symptoms people should never ignore, and how to choose among today’s screening options. They also explore the barriers that keep people from follow-through — and why turning awareness into action can save lives.

Two weeks into the US-Israeli assault on Iran, every prediction of its architects has collapsed. The regime stands. Protests haven't reignited. Iran's new Supreme Leader — more hardline than his assassinated father — has vowed to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed. And the war began just as negotiations in Geneva were apparently close to a deal. Suzi speaks to UCLA sociologist and Iran expert Kevan Harris on Day 14 of Operation Epic Fury. We examine Iran's domestic political economy, the corrupt economic empire of the Revolutionary Guard (IRGC), and the regime's brutal repression after the January uprising. On the fantasy of regime change by bombing, Kevan says, “There are zero historical cases of air power bombing a country into revolution from below. Zero." Every US intelligence agency told the White House this. They went ahead anyway. It's 2003 all over again. Kevan describes Israel's war strategy as a widening gyre with no limit and no endpoint — one likely to produce another war on Iran within two years. That's why, Kevan argues, building an anti-war movement the Left's most urgent task. "We might have a hot summer in the United States." Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.

We are so happy to have Dr. Elina Veytsman join us for this episode of the show! Dr. Elina Veytsman is a licensed psychologist and the Director of Training at the UCLA PEERS® Clinic, where she leads groups for neurodivergent youth and their caregivers while also training interns, postdocs, and professionals. She earned her Psychology degrees at UCLA and UC Riverside, researching developmental disabilities and transition experiences for youth and parents, and completed her doctoral internship providing therapy, parent training, and diagnostic assessment services. Since joining the UCLA PEERS® Clinic in 2014, she has delivered the PEERS® program in multiple settings and also provides individualized PEERS services through a private practice in Los Angeles. Dr. Elina Veytsman joins us to discuss how we help neurodivergent teens and young adults explore dating in ways that are both safe and authentic to who they are. We unpack the importance of supporting relationship development for neurodivergent youth without removing their agency or individuality, and we start off by unpacking a common misconception - that autistic or neurodivergent youth are not interested in romantic relationships. In reality, many deeply want connection but may not have been given clear, explicit guidance about the social patterns that others often learn more informally. Our conversation in this episode explores how dating skills are teachable rather than innate, and Dr. Veytsman explains that social skills such as reciprocal conversation, recognizing romantic interest, understanding boundaries, and processing rejection can be broken into concrete, observable steps. Much of the work that she discusses is grounded in research and sociological observation, with more than 75 scientific papers supporting PEERS® programming. This episode of the podcast also touches upon how social cognition, perspective-taking, and communication differences can affect dating experiences. Safety and vulnerability are also major themes that we talk about, and we discuss risks such as online exploitation, misreading friendliness as romantic interest, and the challenge of recognizing subtle social cues. Dr. Veytsman highlights that vulnerability often comes from inexperience rather than neurodivergence itself and that education about red flags, consent, and online behavior can be very protective! Our discussion also highlights the strengths-based philosophy behind PEERS®. Rather than changing identity or forcing conformity, the program focuses on expanding communication tools, building confidence, and supporting young people as they pursue relationships that feel meaningful to them. If you are a parent, clinician, or someone interested in how neurodivergent youth can approach dating with confidence and safety, then this episode is not one that you will want to miss! Show Notes: [2:44] - Dr. Veytsman explains how romantic skills often begin in adolescence, starting with friendship and learning conversation, boundaries, and recognizing shared interests. [5:24] - Dating challenges could include one-sided conversations, so the program first teaches reciprocal communication before introducing relationship-specific skills. [7:10] - Dr. Veytsman discusses how limited peer learning and social cue misunderstanding can increase vulnerability to online exploitation. [10:23] - Hear how perspective-taking and social cognition can be strengthened like a muscle with structured practice of social thinking and empathy skills. [12:20] - Early training in communication, risk awareness, and perception helps build meaningful relationships by improving social understanding and behavior awareness. [13:42] - Vulnerability often arises from limited experience; explicit education helps youth recognize manipulation, red flags, and online safety risks. [16:41] - The PEERS® program is a strengths-based, neurodiversity-respecting, and skill-building dating / social development program for neurodivergent youth! [17:11] - Preparation, coaching, and education help autistic youth build healthy relationships via learning consent, rejection, safety, and partner recognition. [19:21] - We learn that approximately 70% of participants involve parents learning to coach social skills while respecting individuals' goals. [22:52] - Hear how the program truly promotes neurodiversity, teaches social tools for connection, and encourages personal choice rather than masking. [25:16] - Dating education covers rejection, boundaries, consent, and flirting as observable, research-grounded behaviors. [27:59] - We further learn how flirting and interest are taught via low-risk signals such as eye contact, smiles, and reciprocal conversation exchanges. [30:44] - Hear why online profiles should present clear, positive, authentic information and use profile-specific messages to initiate meaningful contact. [33:13] - Caregivers can help reinforce skills with praise-based feedback, homework practice, and shared interest activities. [36:57] - Evidence shows that PEERS® improves dating behavior, confidence, social participation, and relationship skill use across research studies! [40:08] - How can Dr. Veytsman be contacted?

On this show we feature the late writer and activist Mike Davis, who dabbled as an “urban historian,” who took on geography, politics, economics, sociology and literature. His focus was the dislocation and separation brought on by capitalist society: people from land, work from ownership, individuals from each other, all in the service of profit. And he showed how this dislocation resulted in climate, environmental, and social disasters. His solution was communities connecting together and to the land. Mike Davis was a true intellectual visionary, who was down to get into the streets and walk his talk. I met Mike Davis as a graduate student when he taught at UCLA in the School of Architecture and Urban Planning. At the time, he was writing his incendiary and prophetic shadowing of the social and environmental calamities that the city of Los Angeles, and our world at large, continues to face. We begin with an introduction of Mike Davis and will come back to a question and answer by Vijay Prashad, an Indian Marxist historian and commentator. This is from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst History Department Feinberg Lecture Series from 2020. We also feature a lecture by Mike Davis about his book Planet of Slums, which investigates the increasing inequality of the urban world. According to the U.N., more than one billion people now live in extreme poverty in mega-cities facing environmental and social collapse from perpetual and worsening climate disruptions. Mike Davis explores the meaning and the future of this radically unequal and unstable urban world. The Planet of Slums lecture comes from a talk given at Rhodes College in Memphis, TN, in 2015.

Once a meat cutter and a truck driver, he was Professor Emeritus at University of California, Riverside, a Macarthur Fellow, and the author of more than 20 books. He is best known for his investigations of power and social class in works such as City of Quartz: Excavating the Future in Los Angeles (1990) and Late Victorian Holocausts (2001).

Today's Headlines: Three weeks into the Iran "excursion" — Trump's word, not ours — and there's no end in sight. Trump claimed Iran asked for a ceasefire; Iran said that didn't happen. Either way, 5,000 more marines and three more warships are headed to the region, joining the 50,000 U.S. troops already there. Oil is stuck at $100 a barrel, every country Trump asked to help escort tankers through the Strait of Hormuz said no, and the U.S. bombed Iran's Kharg Island oil hub — which Trump said he might hit "a few more times just for fun," as one does. Iran fired a missile at an Italian base in Iraq's Kurdistan region, a drone killed a French soldier in the same area, and Emmanuel Macron had to call Tehran to say that's unacceptable. At home, a federal judge blocked the DOJ's attempt to criminally investigate Fed Chair Jerome Powell, ruling it was a pretext to pressure the Fed on interest rates — the Trump administration is appealing. The FCC chair threatened to pull local TV licenses over Iran war coverage he doesn't like, and Trump threatened media outlets on social media for the same reason. Neither has real teeth yet, but that's sort of the point. Meanwhile, a viral six-hour deposition of two former DOGE employees revealed they used ChatGPT to identify 1,400 grants to cut — including ones for Black civil rights documentaries and Holocaust research — with zero government or academic experience between them. The Wall Street Journal reported that the Trump administration will collect a $10 billion fee from the TikTok deal — on an app valued at roughly $14 billion total. Palantir's CEO went on CNBC to brag that his AI will shift economic power away from educated women who vote Democratic. Kash Patel announced the FBI will now train with UFC fighters. Marco Rubio is on the witness list in his close friend's federal trial for acting as an unregistered foreign agent of Venezuela. A Florida Democrat won the Boca Raton mayoral race by one vote, and the Republican loser said he'd "sleep on" whether to accept the results. And a UCLA study found that diverse film casts outperform at the box office — which landed the same weekend the Oscars completely snubbed Sinners.

In this special episode of the Explaining History Podcast, recorded just days before the 2026 Academy Awards, we're joined by film and media historian Monica Sandler of Ball State University to explore what the Oscars tell us about American culture, power, and the film industry itself.Monica brings her deep expertise to bear on these questions, tracing the Oscars back to their founding in 1929 as a deliberate attempt to reframe film as an art form—a response to the 1915 Mutual Decision that denied movies First Amendment protections and labeled the industry "plain and simple" commerce. From Will Hays's 1930 speech describing the awards as "an educator of public taste" to the New York Film Critics Circle's 1936 declaration that the Academy was "completely out of touch," the tension between industry insiders and cultural arbiters has been there from the start.We dive into the economics of awards campaigning—how smaller films depend on Oscar success for profitability, while blockbusters don't need the validation—and the transformation of that process by Harvey Weinstein, who turned awards campaigning into a brutal, multi-million-dollar blood sport. The rules the Academy has had to create in response tell their own story.The conversation also grapples with the Oscars' troubled relationship with race and representation. Monica discusses the 2016 #OscarsSoWhite movement, which forced the Academy to overhaul its membership—then 90% white, 75% male, with an average age of 65—and the complicated legacy of that change. We talk about the first person of colour ever nominated, Merle Oberon in 1936, who passed as British and whose racial identity was unknown to the public, a poignant illustration of the barriers that existed.And we look forward: to the rise of streaming, the consolidation of media conglomerates, the threat of AI, and the question of whether the Oscars will remain relevant in a world where young people watch YouTube, not Hollywood. Monica argues that while broadcast ratings may decline, the social media visibility of awards moments—like Michael B.

The Space Show Presents Dr. Andrew Fraknoi, Sunday, March 1, 2026Quick Summary:The Space Show presented an in-depth discussion with astronomer Dr. Andrew Fraknoi about the upcoming total lunar eclipse on March 3rd, which will be visible in the early morning hours across North America. Our discussion explored how ancient Greeks used lunar eclipses to prove Earth's spherical shape and covered modern astronomical topics including the Vera Rubin Observatory's 10-year sky-mapping project and the James Webb Space Telescope's capabilities for observing distant galaxies. The discussion also touched on the debate between active and passive SETI approaches to searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, with Dr. Fraknoi expressing caution about sending messages to potential alien civilizations. The program concluded with information about Dr. Fraknoi's free astronomy textbook and his ongoing Silicon Valley Astronomy Lectures series for 27 years.Detailed Summary:The meeting began with a discussion about teaching programs for retired individuals, where Andrew shared his experience teaching astronomy in national classes through the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute. The conversation then shifted to a discussion about supernovae, with Andrew explaining that predicting them is currently impossible. David encountered technical difficulties with Zoom, preventing a participant from joining, and John Hunt offered suggestions to resolve the issue. The conversation ended with David announcing upcoming schedule changes, including a canceled show due to his travel to UCLA, and encouraged listeners to support the program through PayPal or Substack.Andrew explained the details of the upcoming total lunar eclipse, noting that while it's easily observable without special equipment, its timing in the middle of the night makes it inconvenient for most people. He shared a chart showing the eclipse's progression across different time zones, highlighting that the total phase will last about an hour, with the moon appearing red due to Earth's atmosphere bending sunlight. Andrew also discussed the historical significance of lunar eclipses, explaining how ancient Greeks observed the round shadow cast by Earth to conclude the Earth was spherical, and clarified that lunar eclipses are safe to watch without protection. He contrasted lunar and solar eclipses, noting that while lunar eclipses are more accessible and beautiful, solar eclipses are crucial for studying the sun's atmosphere due to a unique coincidence where the moon and sun appear the same size from Earth.The Space Show Wisdom Team discussed the history of astronomical knowledge, focusing on ancient Greek contributions to understanding the Earth's shape and the distances to the moon and sun. Andrew explained how the Greeks developed geometry to calculate these distances, with Marshall noting that their ratio estimates were surprisingly accurate. They also discussed Eratosthenes' experiment measuring the Earth's circumference and how this knowledge influenced Columbus' voyages, despite some debate during the Middle Ages about the Earth's shape.Andrew discussed the historical significance of Einstein's general theory of relativity, highlighting the 1919 solar eclipse experiment that confirmed his predictions about light bending. He also explained the Vera Rubin Observatory, a ground-based telescope in Chile with a sophisticated digital camera that will capture a 10-year time-lapse of the sky, enabling astronomers to discover millions of new celestial objects. David inquired about the observatory's citizen science component, to which Andrew confirmed the existence of projects like the Rubin Comet Catchers and mentioned that the data will be accessible for public participation. Andrew also briefly mentioned the James Webb Space Telescope, emphasizing its ability to observe infrared wavelengths and its potential to provide new insights into the universe's history.Andrew explained how light travels at a finite speed, making observations of distant astronomical objects reflect events from the past, such as the 4-year-old light from the nearest star. He highlighted the James Webb Space Telescope's ability to observe the early universe, revealing structures and black holes that formed much earlier than expected, prompting questions about their origins and the need for better theories and telescopes to understand these phenomena. David inquired about the feasibility of extrapolating current conditions from ancient observations, to which Andrew responded that while AI and data could help, more observations and theoretical understanding are needed to accurately model the early universe's evolution.The group discussed historical measurements of the speed of light, with Marshall sharing how Galileo used Jupiter's moons to make one of the first estimates. David mentioned a story about an Old West cowboy who invented a way to measure the speed of light and later became involved with the Naval Observatory, though the group couldn't confirm the details. The conversation concluded with David asking if there was any citizen science opportunity related to the James Webb Telescope, though no answer was provided.Andrew discussed citizen science projects, particularly Zooniverse and NASA's citizen science page, where individuals can contribute to astronomical discoveries. He highlighted the significant increase in the number of known planets around other stars since 1995, from zero to over 6,000, emphasizing the role of citizen science in these discoveries. Andrew also touched on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI), expressing optimism about the possibility of discovering advanced life forms elsewhere in the universe, and mentioned an upcoming international symposium on the search for technosignatures.Our guest explained that the speed of light does not change near a black hole, but rather space and time are affected by gravity. He described how time would slow down for someone approaching a black hole, causing them to experience a faster-paced universe upon their return. Andrew mentioned a Harvard experiment that confirmed Einstein's predictions about time's relationship with gravity. John Hunt noted that the phenomenon was depicted in the movie Interstellar, though the film's space dynamics were inaccurate.We continued talking about black holes and their properties, with Andrew explaining that black holes themselves are invisible but can be detected through their accretion disks - swirling whirlpools of material being pulled into the black hole. Marshall clarified his earlier comment about varying gravity in accretion disks, explaining that while black hole gravity remains constant, individual particles in the disk experience varying gravitational effects due to the complex arrangement of mass. The conversation concluded with a discussion about the differences between astronomy, astrophysics, and cosmology, with Andrew explaining that while all astronomers are essentially astrophysicists, cosmology is a specialized branch that studies the universe as a whole rather than individual celestial objects.Andrew and David discussed the nature of astronomy and astrophysics degrees, emphasizing that the terms are often interchangeable and that a strong background in physics and mathematics is crucial for a career in astronomy. They also explored the concept of SETI (searching for extraterrestrial intelligence) versus MEDI (messaging extraterrestrial intelligence), with Andrew expressing concerns about sending out loud messages to potential alien civilizations due to humanity's relative youth and lack of understanding of other civilizations in the galaxy. The discussion concluded with the question of who should make the decision to reveal humanity's presence to extraterrestrial civilizations, highlighting the need for a global consensus on such an important issue.Andrew and David discussed the potential dangers and ethical considerations of broadcasting messages to extraterrestrial civilizations, emphasizing the need for caution and decision-making processes. Andrew shared insights from his work with the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, highlighting efforts to debunk pseudoscience and paranormal claims, and explained the role of faith in personal belief systems. He also promoted the OpenStax project, which provides free online textbooks for introductory college courses, including astronomy. The conversation concluded with updates on the Silicon Valley Astronomy Lectures, which are now available as podcasts and on YouTube, and a brief discussion about upcoming celestial events and potential guests for future shows.Special thanks to our sponsors:American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics, Helix Space in Luxembourg, Celestis Memorial Spaceflights, Astrox Corporation, Dr. Haym Benaroya of Rutgers University, The Space Settlement Progress Blog by John Jossy, The Atlantis Project, and Artless EntertainmentOur Toll Free Line for Live Broadcasts: 1-866-687-7223 (Not in service at this time)For real time program participation, email Dr. Space at: drspace@thespaceshow.com for instructions and access.The Space Show is a non-profit 501C3 through its parent, One Giant Leap Foundation, Inc.

Powered by CJ Moneyway Entertainment and Bleav Network. Resilience is a word we hear often. But what does real survival actually look like when life collapses? On this episode of The CJ Moneyway Show, CJ sits down with Dr. Kirsten Viola Harrison, a trauma psychologist with more than 25 years of experience helping people rebuild after profound psychological, emotional, and spiritual challenges. Dr. Harrison has taught and trained at institutions including UCLA, Georgetown University, and Pepperdine University, but her work extends far beyond the classroom. Her approach focuses on the deeply human side of trauma recovery — how individuals reclaim identity, dignity, and purpose after systems and circumstances push them to the edge. Her newest book, co-written with Seana Smith, tells the lived journey of an intersex woman navigating homelessness, schizophrenia, and the complex systems meant to provide care but often create further harm. In this powerful conversation, we explore: • What trauma really does to identity and self-worth • The difference between surviving and truly healing • Why systems designed to help often fail the most vulnerable • The psychological path from crisis to transformation • Faith, resilience, and rebuilding the human spirit • What leaders and entrepreneurs can learn from trauma recovery This episode is a deep and necessary conversation about human dignity, healing, and the courage it takes to rebuild life after devastation. ⸻ PODCAST SHOW LINKS Listen to The CJ Moneyway Show https://pod.link/1707761906 Official Website https://cjmoneyway.com Book CJ Moneyway / Podcast Guest Booking https://calendly.com/cj-cjmoneywayshow/60min ⸻ CJ MONEYWAY EXCLUSIVE BENEFIT High performers protect both their mental clarity and physical health.

WHAT IS LIFE REALLY LIKE IN IRAN? I'm very excited about today's guest at 1. Khosro Isfahani. Khosro was born and raised in Tehran, where he lived for over three decades, working as a journalist and frontline human rights defender until 2021. He infiltrated secretive missile facilities. He smuggled classified documents beyond the regime's reach. He delivered aid quietly to communities placed deliberately in harm's way. Those choices carried consequences: interrogations, threats, surveillance, and finally exile. But exile did not silence him. Over seventeen years reporting on Iran's political and human landscape, Khosro has transformed lived experience into disciplined research and strategic advocacy. Today, he serves as Research Director at the National Union for Democracy in Iran (NUFDI), documenting abuses and articulating a pathway toward a democratic transition. Before NUFDI he worked for Financial Tribune, Article 19, Atlantic Council, and as a professor at Colby College. He has also led Iran research at UC Berkeley and UCLA. We will talk about life in Iran both before the war, now and hopefully after.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Newly-minted Nobel laureate Fred Ramsdell joins Claudia to discuss his groundbreaking work on regulatory T cells, which act as the immune system's natural "brakes." His research aims to "reset" the immune system to cure autoimmune diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis and MS) moving beyond mere symptom management. Fred reflects on his new role as a science advocate, addressing the crisis of public trust in science and the need for greater diversity in biomedical research.During this conversation, recorded at the UC Berkeley/JP Morgan Healthcare Conference in Taipei, Claudia and Fred discuss:How Fred missed the Nobel Prize call while off-grid campingHis shifting goals in retirement post Nobel winWhy he chose biotech: collaboration, speed, and being "wrong fast"The deeper threat to science: funding vs. trust, and his surprise in SwedenFred says he's excited to see what other advances are possible in what he calls “the early innings” of scientific discovery:“As humans, we're really good at solving technological problems. If we know what the problem is, historically, we're pretty good at figuring out an answer. [We're] pretty confident now that we know the problem in peripheral tolerance, that is the breakdown of our immune system recognizing our own tissues. Now we know what at least part of that problem is, we'll be able to engineer our way into a solution.”Relevant LinksSee more about Fred's Nobel win and read the UCLA press releaseFred's Nobel prize lectureSee Fred and his co-laureates accept their prizeRead more about Fred's 2025 co-laureates Mary E. Brunkow and Shimon SakaguchiAbout Our GuestFred Ramsdell, PhD, is a veteran biotechnology leader in immunology with nearly three decades of experience and was named a winner of the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. A co-founder of Sonoma Biotherapeutics, Dr. Ramsdell was the former Chief Scientific Officer (CSO) and current Scientific Advisory Board Chair of the Company.Dr. Ramsdell earned his doctoral degree in microbiology and immunology from the University of California, Los Angeles and holds a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and cell biology from the University of California, San Diego. Following a fellowship at the NIH, Dr. Ramsdell joined Immunex studying T cell activation and tolerance, with a focus on gene discovery and functional characterization. He later joined Darwin Molecular (which was later acquired by Celltech R&D) to establish the immunology program. Amongst other programs, he led the team that discovered and characterized FoxP3, a gene critical to the function of regulatory T cells. Dr. Ramsdell joined ZymoGenetics in 2004, where he led teams studying novel proteins with potential regulatory activity in lymphoid cells. In 2008, Novo Nordisk brought on Dr. Ramsdell to help establish the company's new Inflammation Research Center in Seattle and lead the Immunobiology group. Prior to SonomaBio, Dr. Ramsdell was the CSO at the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy (PICI) where he helped to build and advance multiple research programs from the inception of the Institute.SourceConnect With UsFor more information on The Other 80 please visit our website - www.theother80.com.

The USC Triple-Double Podcast -- the Peristyle's basketball-focused podcast -- returns with Shotgun Spratling and Ahmad Akkaoui filling in to break down the latest news and recent struggles of ⁠⁠USC⁠⁠ men's and women's basketball. The Trojan men finished the regular season dropping their final seven games after suffering a pair of humbling losses to West Coast foes, falling by 19 points at Washington after holding a three-point lead at halftime and then getting blown out by 21 against UCLA with way too much baby blue cheering in the Galen Center. On the women's side, USC dropped its fourth straight game with a disappointing single-game showing in the Big Ten Tournament, falling to Washington by 12 points after the Women of Troy scored just 20 points in the first half. Shotgun and Ahmad break down all the latest action and look at what it will take for the Trojan men to go on a miraculous run in the Big Ten Tournament, starting with a rematch of the Washington team that just beat them soundly in Seattle. The podcasting duo also take a look at where the USC women stand as they've slid closer to the bubble in recent weeks.

Paul and Amy pay tribute to the late Bud Cort by revisiting Hal Ashby's 1971 cult classic that somehow never shows up on the big movie lists. They unpack the film's unlikely origins as UCLA student Colin Higgins' audacious script and trace its journey from disastrous reviews and a blink-and-you-miss-it release to becoming a full-blown counterculture cult classic.
