On this episode, Jim Hill and Eric Hersey dig into the latest Universal Orlando updates before turning to a deep-dive tribute to Jay Stein — the visionary who transformed Universal's backlot tour into a spectacle factory and helped define the studio's signature “JayBang” style of themed entertainment. NEWS NBC's Wicked: One Wonderful Night special sparks strong reactions as Universal's cross-promotions continue everywhere from Dunkin' to TV tie-ins. New 2026 Universal Orlando ticket options clarify how multi-day guests can access Epic Universe more than once. Reddit reactions and critic reviews paint a wide spectrum of opinions on Universal's latest TV musical marketing moment. Preparations continue around Orlando as fans look ahead to more detailed Epic Universe rollouts. FEATURE — A TRIBUTE TO JAY STEIN How a 26-year-old studio problem-solver was handed one directive: “Fix the tram tour.” The creation of the very first “JayBang”: the 1968 Flash Flood, sending 20,000 gallons of water rushing past the tram. The shift from generic “movie magic” to effects pulled straight from current Universal Pictures releases. The Eiger Sanction–inspired glacier tunnel illusion, which evolved into one of the most memorable tram finales ever built. Why Jay Stein's fingerprints can still be felt across every fireball, near-miss shark, collapsing bridge, and runaway vehicle in Universal's attraction lineup.

Synopsis:  Join acclaimed poet Joy Harjo for an illuminating conversation on finding courage and embracing our stories, as she discusses her new guide "Girl Warrior: On Coming of Age"This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  We are in what today's guest calls a dark night of our national soul. Many of us are feeling hopeless, uncomfortable and stuck, but it is possible to make it through the darkness. Generations before us survived the unthinkable; if the past has a story to tell, what's today's? This notion of coming into ourselves and embracing our stories is what Joy Harjo, the internationally renowned poet, performer, writer and activist of the Muscogee Creek Nation takes up in her long-spanning career. Harjo is just out with “Girl Warrior: On Coming of Age”, a guide, dedicated especially to Indigenous girls, for people trying to find their way in a time of transformation. She is the author of two American Book Awards winners: “In Mad Love and War” and “Crazy Brave”, and was executive editor of the groundbreaking “When the Light of the World Was Subdued, Our Songs Came Through: A Norton Anthology of Native Nations Poetry”. She was the first Indigenous Poet Lau­re­ate and served three terms from 2019 to 2022. Join Harjo and Flanders for this illuminating conversation on finding courage this winter, plus a commentary from Laura on releasing the files on Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls. “We have to stand for what's right. You can't stand and watch a neighbor starving. We have to realize that ultimately we were created by a creator who loves diversity . . . The universal law is diversity. Universal law is love and connection. We're all connected.”  - Joy Harjo“The bone and the muscle of being human is stories. That's what we do. I remember years ago, thinking about what use are human beings to the ecosystem. I really couldn't find a reason that we were here, except that we make stories. It's important we express gratitude and that we're helpful to the other beings who live here.” - Joy HarjoGuest: Joy Harjo (Mvskoke): Poet, Performer & Writer; Author, Girl Warrior: On Coming of AgeFull Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

Wicked: For Good movie is in theaters this week, so please enjoy this wonderful conversation from the AOK library with the film's director Jon M. Chu. He and Robert Peterpaul to discuss being a kind leader on set, acts of kindness from Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, his spellbinding memoir Viewfinder and more. Rejoicify - this is a thought-provoking chat filled with STAR-studded surprise guests! We're OBSESSULATED! Jon M. Chu is known for his visually stunning blockbuster films, as well as his kinetic work across various genres from groundbreaking series to commercials and films. Additionally, his unique storytelling ability has earned him the honor of inclusion on the Hollywood Reporter's Power 100 list as well as Variety's New Hollywood Leaders. Most recently, Chu directed Universal Pictures' critically acclaimed WICKED 1 & 2, starring Oscar-nominees Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande. Part 1 of the feature-film adaptation of the record-breaking musical phenomenon released in theaters on November 22 and quickly became a box-office hit, becoming the highest-grossing Broadway adaption in domestic box office history in its second week earning over $350 million globally. His memoir, Viewfinder, is his journey from growing up in the Silicon Valley to transitioning to Hollywood and helming major studio projects, released Summer 2024. The book is an uplifting tale of belonging, creativity and learning to see who you truly are. His other projects include the critically acclaimed adaptation of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Tony Award-winning musical IN THE HEIGHTS for Warner Bros. Studios as well as the worldwide phenomenon CRAZY RICH ASIANS, which was nominated for numerous awards, including a SAG Award, a Golden Globe and PGA Award. It is one of the top 10 highest grossing romantic comedies of all time and the highest in a decade. It was also the first contemporary studio picture in more than 25 years to feature an all-Asian cast and opened a new chapter in Asian-American representation in Hollywood. Chu is attached to direct the highly anticipated biopic for Britney Spears based on her memoir, The Woman in Me, with Universal. He is also in development on Dr. Seuss' OH, THE PLACES YOU'LL GO! with Warner Bros and JJ Abrams' Bad Robot, which will be his first animated film. His previous films include GI. JOE: RETALIATION, NOW YOU SEE ME 2, JUSTIN BIEBER'S NEVER SAY NEVER and many more representing over 1.3 billion dollars in the worldwide box office.

Además, se conmemora la aprobación de la Convención de los Derechos del Niño el día 20 de noviembre del año 1989, el más universal de los tratados internacionales.

In this conversation, Dr. Katharina Reinecke explores the intersection of technology and culture, discussing how cultural assumptions shape the design and functionality of technology. She delves into the implications of self-driving cars, the importance of understanding diverse user experiences, and the challenges posed by a predominantly Western perspective in technology development. The discussion highlights the need for greater cultural sensitivity in technology design and the potential consequences of ignoring these differences.Takeaways Technology is not culturally neutral; it reflects the values of its creators. Self-driving cars are based on American commuting assumptions. Cultural differences significantly impact user experience and technology design. Efficiency in technology can undermine social interactions and relationships. WEIRD populations dominate technology research, leading to biased outcomes. Universal design principles often fail when applied globally. Stack Exchange exemplifies individualistic design, contrasting with collectivist values. AI systems must be designed with cultural sensitivity to avoid reinforcing biases.Chapters 00:00 Understanding Digital Culture Shock 03:53 The Challenges of Autonomous Vehicles 06:21 Cultural Assumptions in Technology 08:37 The Impact of AI and Data Bias 10:32 Efficiency vs. Social Interaction in Design 12:14 The Concept of 'Weird' Populations 14:24 Cultural Values in Digital Platforms 21:53 The Simplicity of Design and Its Cultural Impact 22:51 Efficiency vs. Community: The Stack Exchange Debate 25:41 Adapting Global Platforms to Local Norms 31:52 The Implications of AI and Digital Infrastructure 34:34 Recognizing Cultural Bias in Technology Design 37:42 Technology as CultureFollow Katharina on Twitter, LinkedIn, Bluesky, and find her new book here.You can find Lab in the Wild on Twitter and BlueskySubscribe to Breaking Math wherever you get your podcasts.Follow Breaking Math on Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, Website, YouTube, TikTokFollow Autumn on Twitter, BlueSky, and InstagramBecome a guest hereemail: breakingmathpodcast@gmail.com

Sat Dharam Kaur, co-founder of Compassionate Inquiry with Dr. Gabor Maté, spent years discovering something profound: each addiction points to a specific childhood trauma. Not random. Not a moral failing.In this Mind Architect episode, Sat Dharam Kaur reveals how she decoded Gabor Maté's therapeutic approach into Compassionate Inquiry—a method now taught to trauma therapists worldwide. She shares the hidden connection between what we're addicted to and what we experienced as children, along with the healing path that addresses addiction at its root.You'll discover why smoking addiction often traces back to loneliness, alcohol addiction to feeling unheard and work addiction to a core belief about worthiness. Sat Dharam Kaur explains the Compassionate Inquiry principles that allow healing without rescuing, the naturopathic protocols that rebalance brain chemistry and how Kundalini yoga activates the vagus nerve to support addiction recovery.This isn't about willpower or 12 steps. It's about understanding the pain behind addiction and addressing it.Her Beyond Addiction program integrates Compassionate Inquiry with 45 years of Kundalini yoga practice and naturopathic medicine. She's worked with Gabor Maté since 2009, transcribing hundreds of hours of his sessions to identify the patterns that make trauma healing possible.Whether you're working with addiction recovery, supporting someone you love, practicing as a therapist, or trying to understand your own patterns—this conversation offers clarity on the trauma-addiction connection and a path forward.BOOKS REFERENCED:In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts by Dr. Gabor MatéThe Complete Natural Medicine Guide to Breast CancerThe Complete Natural Medicine Guide to Women's HealthA Call to Women: A Healthy Breast Program and WorkbookPRACTICES & PROGRAMS:⁠Compassionate Inquiry Training⁠ Beyond Addiction Program (16 modules: CI + Kundalini Yoga + Naturopathic Medicine)Kundalini Yoga on ⁠Sat Dharam Kaur's YouTube channel⁠Compassionate Inquiry ⁠Romania⁠ → local training & communityTHERAPY MODALITIES MENTIONED:Compassionate Inquiry (CI)Internal Family Systems (IFS)Somatic Experiencing (SE)Kundalini YogaTHREE QUESTIONS FOR HEALING:What needs were unmet in your childhood?What emotion did you experience when that was happening?What did you believe about yourself?"(00:00:00) Intro""(00:04:56) The car accident, mom's alcoholism and aftermath""(00:09:12) From art and science to naturopathic medicine""(00:17:17) From reading the book to meeting Gabor""(00:21:09) Decoding Gabor's method by transcribing hundreds of hours""(00:22:41) Gabor: I don't know what I'm doing.

In 1988, NASA published an article about a "Universal Antidote" referring to a gad called 'Chlorine Dioxide', which is now being used for all sorts of diseases; from cancer, to autoimmune conditions and everything in between. Jonathan Otto is a medical journalist who exposes the corruption of big pharama and suppressed medical treatments and he creates documentaries with science backed and tested health interventions. Chlorine Dioxide was first discovered in 1811, and it's since been used as a disinfectant, in water treatmen and in the beverage industry and in fruit and vegetable processing. It killed anthrax in 2001, indoor mold after hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans in 2005, and the CDC even used it to kill ebola.   TOPICS DISCUSSED: Chlorine dioxide as a "universal antidote" it's effects on cancer, autoimmune disease and other conditions the suppressed medical treatments corruption of big pharma accessible treatments like red light therapy how to take control of your own health   More from Jonathan Otto: Instagram: @Jonno.Otto Docuseries: CancerSecrets.com  and Healing Revolution Series  Make Chlorine Dioxide: Adreas Kalcker   Leave us a Review: https://www.reversablepod.com/review   Need help with your gut?

Plus, Hyundai teases a high-riding electric concept for the off-road segment, and Netflix pivots to a massive experiential retail strategy.Show Notes with links:Ford is leveraging Amazon's massive consumer reach, partnering with the e-commerce giant to allow franchised dealers to sell their Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) inventory directly through the platform.The transaction flow is highly digitized: customers can secure financing and complete the initial paperwork online, streamlining the final steps required in the dealership.The dealership remains the seller of record, ensuring they handle the final transaction and subsequent service.Ford will evaluate the results of CPO-only sales before considering expanding into new vehicle sales on the platform in the future, mimicking the Hyundai model.Hyundai is doubling down on the rugged-SUV trend at the LA Auto Show, teasing the "Crater Concept," an extreme off-road show vehicle that aggressively amplifies the brand's popular XRT trim line.The Crater is a boxy, high-riding SUV, a true off-road direction for the brand, possibly targeting the Ford Bronco.The design uses a closed-off grille and no visible exhaust, suggesting it is part of Hyundai's electrification pushHyundai Design North America just unveiled "The Sandbox," a new creative hub dedicated exclusively to developing future outdoor adventure vehicles and XRT-branded gearNetflix is betting that the future of retail is experiential, as it opened its first 100,000-sq-ft "Netflix House," setting a new benchmark for brand activation and customer engagement.The space converts a former Lord & Taylor anchor store, demonstrating a highly creative use for large, vacant mall real estate.Initial press reviews were overwhelmingly positive, with critics comparing the staff's training and execution to "Disney and Universal staffers."The model uses a high-low structure: free exploration drives traffic, while paid, premium immersive experiences ($15–$39) are the key revenue drivers.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Step into late November with This Week in Horror History, the horror podcast that digs into the spooky anniversaries hiding between Thanksgiving and Christmas. In this episode, we dive into a full week of genre milestones for November 18–25, from cult slashers and gothic ghost stories to Stephen King adaptations, survival horror gaming, and a haunting cannibal romance.We kick things off at summer camp with Sleepaway Camp (1983), the infamous 1980s slasher movie whose shocking final twist made it a cult legend on VHS and a must-watch for every serious horror fan. Then we ride into the fog with Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow (1999), a stylish gothic horror film packed with headless-horseman mayhem, Hammer Horror vibes, and one of Johnny Depp's most beloved spooky roles.From there, we lock the supermarket doors and let The Mist (2007) roll in. This Stephen King horror movie traps terrified townspeople in a grocery store surrounded by Lovecraftian monsters and religious hysteria, building to one of the bleakest endings in modern horror cinema. We also pick up a controller for Condemned: Criminal Origins (2005), a grim Xbox 360 survival horror game that turned a next-gen console launch into a nightmare of crime scenes, jump scares, and first-person brutality.Our Deep-Cut Spotlight sinks its teeth into Salem's Lot (1979), Tobe Hooper's terrifying Stephen King TV miniseriesthat made an entire generation afraid to look out their bedroom windows. We talk small-town dread, the iconic window-scratch scene, and how this vampire story helped shape everything from Fright Night to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Midnight Mass.Along the way, we roll through horror birthdays (including icons connected to The Silence of the Lambs, The Thing, and indie horror favorites), revisit the legacy of Universal's Frankenstein in a Then & Now segment, and close with a Weekly Recommendation: Luca Guadagnino's Bones and All (2022), a melancholic cannibal road movie that plays like a twisted, emotional Thanksgiving watch.If you love horror history, Stephen King adaptations, Tim Burton gothic horror, 80s slasher movies, Thanksgiving horror, and deep dives into cult classics, this episode is your cozy, creepy guide to late-November genre viewing.Subscribe to This Week in Horror History on the Weekly Spooky network so you never miss a horror anniversary, hidden gem, or nightmare from the vault.Sleepaway Camp (1983)Streaming: Currently streaming on Peacock and available via Prime Video (depending on region/packaging).Physical: Recent Blu-ray restorations from boutique horror labels are in print and easy to hunt down for collectors.Sleepy Hollow (1999)Digital: Available to rent or buy digitally on the usual suspects, including Prime Video and Apple TV.Physical: Long-standing Paramount Blu-ray and DVD releases are widely available.The Mist (2007)Streaming: Streaming on Peacock and Paramount+, often as part of their Stephen King / horror lineups.Physical: Blu-ray editions are easy to find, including releases that feature Frank Darabont's preferred black-and-white cut.Condemned: Criminal Origins (2005 – game)Digital: Recently delisted from major digital storefronts, so it's not a simple click-to-buy anymore.Physical / Legacy: Best found as a physical Xbox 360 disc or as remaining PC keys from reputable sellers that still activate on Steam; expect some tinkering on modern hardware.Salem's Lot (1979 miniseries)Streaming: Shows up on free-with-ads streamers like Tubi and on horror-centric services such as AMC+ and Shudder from time to time, though availability shifts.Physical / Digital: There are solid DVD and Blu-ray editions in circulation, and it's typically available to rent or buy digitally on major VOD platforms when it falls out of flat-rate streaming.Bones and All (2022)Digital: Available digitally on Prime Video.Streaming: Also popping up on cinephile-focused streamers such as The Criterion Channel and MUBI, making it easy to slot into a late-night double feature.This episode of This Week in Horror History is brought to you by Savorista Coffee.

In this episode of The Wade Borth Podcast, Wade breaks down the recent headlines about NASCAR driver Kyle Busch allegedly losing $8.5 million in an Indexed Universal Life (IUL) scheme—and why stories like this create so much confusion about life insurance. Wade explains the likely factors behind the situation, including premium financing and unrealistic illustrations, and clarifies why IUL shifts risk back to the client while dividend-paying whole life insurance operates on guarantees, transparency, and long-term stability. Instead of letting one bad actor or bad tool tarnish the entire industry, Wade uses this moment to highlight the critical differences between IUL and whole life, the importance of understanding risk, and why whole life remains the most reliable foundation for financial security. Episode Highlights 03:03 - Index Universal Life (IUL) concerns. 05:50 - Universal life risks to clients. 07:11 - Whole life vs. Universal life. 10:54 - Value of guarantees in whole life. 13:04 - Transferring risk to policyholders. 15:39 - Whole life as a liquidity contract. 19:21 - Industry skepticism and bad actors.

Jim Hill and Eric Hersey trace the ambitious — and ultimately ill-fated — vision for Universal's Dark Universe, from the scrapped sequel to The Mummy to Tom Cruise's push to reinvent himself as the studio's modern Van Helsing. NEWS Universal courts talent and headlines by hiring Mark Platt and director Lorene Scafaria for a Sabrina Carpenter–led Alice in Wonderland musical. Comcast explores a bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, with Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs advising. Competing interest from Netflix and Apple raises the stakes ahead of WBD's planned corporate split. Peacock sets a new premiere date for The Epic Ride documentary, now featuring rare dragon-drone testing footage from Epic Universe. A closer look at how the industry shake-ups could affect theme park rights, licensing, and future Universal IP development. FEATURE The original plan for a direct sequel to 2017's The Mummy — and how the story would have expanded Dr. Jekyll's organization and the gods-and-monsters mythology. Why Tom Cruise's version of Nick Morton was conceived as the entry point to a larger shared universe… and how internal plans positioned him as the modern Van Helsing, monster hunter and connective tissue between films. How Cruise's hands-on creative control — the same instinct that later led Top Gun: Maverick to a $1.4B box office — clashed with Universal's rollout of the Dark Universe brand. A breakdown of what actually killed the Dark Universe: mismatched expectations, a premature cinematic universe announcement, and a marketing campaign Cruise felt undermined the film he delivered. Why Epic Universe's Dark Universe land succeeds where the films didn't — channeling classic-monster storytelling without the burden of a forced franchise blueprint.

Send us a textThis episode features Dr. Sarah Swenson (Children's Nebraska), Dr. Cara Solness, PhD (Children's Nebraska), and Dr. Desiree Leverette (Emory/Children's Healthcare of Atlanta) discussing equitable approaches to parental mental health screening in the NICU. They highlight that traditional programs often screen only mothers for depression, missing significant distress among non-gestational parents, especially fathers. Universal screening identified five times more affected partners, improving opportunities for support. The guests underscore the developmental importance of including all caregivers, the need to address stigma and fears of CPS involvement, and the value of trauma-informed communication. They advocate for integrated NICU psychologists and tailored, equity-focused interventions, including telehealth and culturally responsive materials.Support the showAs always, feel free to send us questions, comments, or suggestions to our email: nicupodcast@gmail.com.

Send us a textThe Monster Squad (1987) is what happens when a bunch of middle school monster nerds decide to take on Dracula, the Wolfman, and the rest of Universal's greatest hits — armed mostly with sarcasm, bike helmets, and the power of friendship. The film was unfairly dismissed when it came out, possibly because audiences weren't ready for a movie where a kid yells, “Wolfman's got nards!” and somehow, it becomes cinematic poetry.Over the years, The Monster Squad has crawled out of its coffin and earned its cult status — a true hidden gem for anyone who loves practical effects, 80s charm, and kids who apparently skipped all adult supervision. It's equal parts monster mash and love letter to classic horror, proving that sometimes the movies we ignored at the box office are the ones that stick around in our undead hearts forever.

Jim Hill and Drew Taylor salute Veterans Day and talk about Xavier “X” Atencio, the new Disney Editions book celebrating the Imagineer behind the Haunted Mansion's “Grim Grinning Ghosts.” Then, Drew and Jim dive into the weekend box office — from Predator: Badlands breaking franchise records to the upcoming Zootopia 2 — before Jim goes solo to finish his deep-dive on the 20th anniversary of Chicken Little: Disney's first CG feature and the film that changed everything at the studio. HIGHLIGHTS Disney Legend spotlight: The new Xavier X. Atencio biography reveals rare sketches, wartime cartoons, and Haunted Mansion concept art — including the one-eyed cat that almost was. Box office breakdown: Predator: Badlands lifts Disney past $4 billion for 2025, while Zootopia 2's early projections could redeem TRON: Ares' underperformance. Streaming watch: Netflix's In Your Dreams wins praise from Collider and The Hollywood Reporter; Star Wars: Visions Vol. 3 drops on Disney+. The forgotten fowl: Why Chicken Little struggled in 2005 — from corporate pressure and story changes to a release window crushed by Goblet of Fire. Animation turning point: How Pixar's arrival, John Lasseter's leadership, and Ratatouille's success permanently shifted Disney away from hand-drawn animation.
