Oh Denise, sacrificed to the cynical Walking Dead Gods who seem to hate it when people have character building moments in life. This was a good episode, but depressing.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Of course as we suspected, viewing this episode through our analytical podcaster's lens we found a lot to dig into and appreciate about this episode and it's implications for Harmony Cobel's character, the series in general, and what it says about the real world. Still wasn't our favorite though. Next up on Severance: S2E9 “The After Hours”. Let us know your thoughts! You can email or send a voice message to waffleparty@podcastica.com.

One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), and with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

Karolina Wydra's performance as Zosia in Vince Gilligan's new hit series "Pluribus" is impressive on many levels, but it wasn't until I talked to her for this podcast that I realized the absolute herculean challenge this role is for an actor. Zosia is part of the single consciousness, and is no longer ruled by the hang-ups, shortcomings, and flaws of a normal human existence. "Remember, she has no nerves!" Gilligan kept telling her. Luckily Wydra faced the challenge head-on. On this episode, she talks about her journey from Poland to America, from model to actor, dipping in various acting disciplines before she created her own blend, and the break she took from her career to feed another love in her life. It was during that break, when her reps had dropped her, that the Pluribus team went looking for her, not knowing that it was her absolute dream to work for Gilligan. This is an inspiring episode about being fully dedicated to the work, following your heart, and letting love lead the way. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.

"Pluribus" is an American post-apocalyptic science fiction television series created by Vince Gilligan for Apple TV. Set and filmed primarily in Albuquerque, New Mexico, the series follows novelist Carol Sturka (Rhea Seehorn), who finds herself isolated after an alien virus transforms the rest of humanity into a peaceful, content hive mind that nevertheless seeks to assimilate her and other immune individuals. The series has received acclaim from critics, with praise for Gilligan's writing and direction, Seehorn's performance, and the show's originality, tone, and stylistic influences. It was nominated for two Golden Globe Awards and two Critics' Choice Awards, with Seehorn winning Best Actress in a Drama Series in both ceremonies. Karolina Wydra was kind enough to spend some time talking with us about her work and experience making the series, which you can listen to below. Please be sure to check out the show, which is now available to stream on Apple TV. Thank you, and enjoy! Check out more on NextBestPicture.com Please subscribe on...

What a breath of fresh air this episode is after the intensity and trauma of the season so far. The lightness and warmth of it are such a welcome relief. And what a milestone it is to see Rick and Michonne finally get together.

Don't Kill the Messenger with movie research expert Kevin Goetz
Send Kevin a Text MessageMark Johnson, Academy Award-winning producer of Rain Man and Emmy Award-winning executive producer of Breaking Bad, joins host Kevin Goetz for a conversation about a career defined by creative restlessness and uncommon decency. The interview ranges from his transformative partnership with Barry Levinson, which produced Diner, The Natural, and Good Morning Vietnam, to shepherding beloved films like The Notebook, A Little Princess, Donnie Brasco, and Galaxy Quest to championing an unknown writer named Vince Gilligan, Johnson reflects on what it means to serve a director's vision, why he refuses to make the same movie twice, and how audience testing changed the way he thinks about filmmaking.Never the Same Movie Twice (02:14): Johnson explains his resistance to repeating himself across genres. From Galaxy Quest to The Notebook to Breaking Bad, he compares his varied tastes to simply deciding what he wants for breakfast.Meeting Barry Levinson (04:07): Johnson recalls how a chance connection on the Mel Brooks comedy launched one of Hollywood's most fruitful producing partnerships, and what he learned from working alongside a director who always began with character.The Lesson of Good Morning Vietnam (13:12): Johnson describes how audience testing transformed his understanding of filmmaking, including working with the mercurial and brilliant Robin Williams and the pivotal decision to restore a scene with J.T. Walsh.Winning the Oscar for Rain Man (18:29): Johnson reflects on the bittersweet experience of winning Best Picture for a film he credits largely to others, Tom Cruise's underappreciated subtlety in the role, and the one name he forgot to thank from the podium.The Closest Thing to a Perfect Movie (26:08): Johnson singles out Alfonso Cuarón's A Little Princess as the film he holds most dear as a lesson in collaborative craftsmanship.Discovering Vince Gilligan (30:06): In 1988, Johnson read a script by an unknown writer at a Virginia Film Festival jury and knew immediately he was in the presence of singular talent. He details how he championed Gilligan for years before Breaking Bad made the world take notice.The Producer's True Role (38:57): Johnson shares what he hopes listeners take away — that his passion for moviemaking is as alive today as when he started, and that a producer's job is never to claim ownership of a film, but to help a director realize their vision.Host: Kevin GoetzGuest: Mark JohnsonProducer: Kari CampanoWriters: Kevin Goetz, Darlene Hayman, and Kari CampanoAudio Engineer: Gary Forbes (DG Entertainment)For more information about Mark Johnson:Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Johnson_(producer)IMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0425741/LFor more information about Kevin Goetz:- Website: www.KevinGoetz360.com- Audienceology Book: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Audience-ology/Kevin-Goetz/9781982186678- How to Score in Hollywood: https://www.amazon.com/How-Score-Hollywood-Secrets-Business/dp/198218986X/- Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Substack: @KevinGoetz360- LinkedIn @Kevin Goetz- Screen Engine/ASI Website: www.ScreenEngineASI.com

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Is it weird that when we get an episode exclusively set in the outside world that we miss the office? Well, we did find a ton to love about this one too, because this show is always mysterious, funny, beautiful, and thought provoking, among other things.

Invitation link: https://discord.gg/6WUMt3m3qe Other shows we cover on this podcast: We cover these other intelligent, engaging, oftentimes delightfully twisted shows: Fallout (Amazon): A crazy retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic melange of wholesomeness and depravity. One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), and with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — A propulsive (and yet regressive?) first episode of the season, bringing up new questions and feeling like things have been frustratingly papered over in that way that only mega-corporations can do.

The X-Files: "X-Cops"Two unexpected titans of the FOX network cross over -- one a fictional paranormal drama, the other a reality show about law enforcement. Somehow, it works! Tyler from Fear Coded joins us as Mulder and Scully face annoying cameramen, an invisible monster, incompetent police officers, and getting their swears bleeped. We unpack the long and upsetting history of the exploitative but hugely popular Cops, the apex of copaganda spanning decades, and how this Vince Gilligan-penned episode perfectly mimics it while also saying ACAB.Check out Fear Coded!Find Tyler: Bluesky | InstagramIf you want more X-Files podcasts, check out Glitterjaw's newest show Little Dead Aliens!A proud part of The Glitterjaw Queer Podcast CollectiveTip us on Ko-Fi | Gimmicks WebsiteEmail: gimmickspodcast@gmail.com | Bluesky | InstagramTheme song: "Disco Tears" by Raven | Creative Commons Attribution 3.0Sources: “Arresting Television: After Nearly 25 years On-air, John Langley is Still Keeping Reality TV Real,” by Alejandro Benes, writing for Cigar Aficionado (2013).“The Unreality of Cops,” by Sophie Gilbert writing for The Atlantic (2020).Cavender, Gray. “In the Shadow of Shadows: Television Reality Crime Programs.” Social Problems: Constructionist Readings (2003).Cops Finds New Home on Fox Nation by Ryan Schwartz for TV Line (2021)Monsters of the Week: The Complete Critical Companion to the X-Files by Zach Handlen & Emily St. James

Vince Gilligan and Rhea Seehorn join The Rolling Stone Studio Live at SXSW to unpack what's ahead for Pluribus, their ambitious Apple TV+ drama that's still finding its next chapter. In conversation with Brian Hiatt, Gilligan reflects on the challenges of mapping out Season Two, the lingering fallout from that explosive finale, and why he's steering clear of “mystery box” storytelling. Seehorn, meanwhile, opens up about carrying the series from nearly every frame and the grueling shoot that revealed just how much the crew had her back. Learn more about your ad choices.

Worship leader Pat Barrett — known for "Good Good Father" and "Build My Life" — joins Cameron, Jesse and Emily to talk about his new live album 'Break Open,' why he sat on the title track for nearly a decade, and his late-in-life obsession with surfing (including an upcoming trip to Kelly Slater's Surf Ranch). He also gets honest about how his thinking on songwriting vs. worship leading has shifted, because of course we ask awkward questions.Also, Emily brings RELEVANT Buzz fresh from South by Southwest, where she sat in on a panel with Vince Gilligan — creator of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul — who said he thinks he owes the world something better than anti-heroes.

It's the cheesemaker! Some of you guys love this episode and some hate it — a polarizing one for sure. Even though I see it differently now, I still love and appreciate it so much. Top-tier TWD for me. But I think my take is more nuanced than last time, and it was a blast to have Alex Kruger (who co-hosted our TWD: Dead City coverage with Ben) with me to thoroughly talk it through.

Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — Ooh, some open defiance on the Severed Floor this week.

Invitation link: https://discord.gg/6WUMt3m3qe Other shows we cover on this podcast: We cover these other intelligent, engaging, oftentimes delightfully twisted shows: Fallout (Amazon): A crazy retro-futuristic post-apocalyptic melange of wholesomeness and depravity. One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), and with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

Holy cow what an aggressively brutal episode, and also an artfully crafted one, with the juxtaposition between the mundanely suburban confines of Alexandria and the explosively violent attack from those big bad Wolves!

What if the dream feels “too big” because you haven't built the capacity to hold it yet? What if success isn't missing you—but waiting for you to feel safe enough to receive it? This week, Jessica sits down with actress Karolina Wydra (Pluribus, Sneaky Pete) to talk about the long game of manifestation. From growing up in communist Poland and internalizing scarcity and suppression, to stepping away from acting at 39 to become a mother, Karolina's story is one of surrender, self-trust, and divine timing. It's a true testimony to something central at TBM: what is meant for you will not miss you. After years of inner work, Karolina landed a life-changing role on Pluribus, fulfilling a longtime manifestation of working with Vince Gilligan. Through EMDR, nervous system regulation, Expanders, journaling, and radical honesty with herself, she shares how subconscious reprogramming helped her release the belief that her dreams were “too big” and instead expand her capacity to receive them. If you've ever feared success as much as failure, this conversation is a reminder that manifestation isn't about forcing—it's about becoming safe enough to hold what you've been calling in.
