The media war you're watching on the news is NOTHING compared to the media war happening behind the news. In this episode, I'm breaking down how Netflix – the same company that crushed the entire streaming game – just ran into the REAL bosses of media… and why a $108 billion hostile takeover tells you everything you need to know about power, propaganda, and who really runs America.Netflix tried to level up from “just streaming” to owning the airwaves – TNT, TBS, CNN, the whole Warner Bros Discovery empire. Then Paramount + Skydance pulled up like, “Nah… we want ALL of that” – with an all-cash, $108B offer straight to the shareholders, backed by Larry Ellison's money, Saudi wealth funds, and Trump's son-in-law's capital. This ain't just about movies. This is about who controls the narrative. And they don't let just anybody touch that.Join our Exclusive Patreon!!!

Netflix has made one of the biggest moves in entertainment history, announcing a proposed $82.7 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery's streaming and studio division, including Warner Bros. Games. If approved, this deal would put major gaming franchises under Netflix's control, including Mortal Kombat, Hogwarts Legacy, and the Batman: Arkham series. In My Xbox And Me Podcast #545, we break down what this could actually mean for gamers, not just investors. We discuss: What Netflix owning Warner Bros. Games means for console players The future of major IPs like Arkham, Mortal Kombat, and Hogwarts Legacy Whether Netflix could push games toward subscriptions or exclusivity How this impacts Xbox, PlayStation, and third-party studios If this deal strengthens or weakens the future of big-budget games With Netflix already struggling to find its place in gaming, this potential acquisition raises serious questions about ownership, preservation, monetisation, and creative freedom in the games industry. If you care about Xbox, AAA game franchises, and how corporate decisions shape the games we play, this episode is essential listening. Subscribe for weekly conversations covering Xbox news, gaming industry debates, and the business moves that directly affect players.

Episode 131 strips the Jungle back to its core. No guest, no buffer, no outside energy to balance the room — just the squad in their purest form. These are the episodes where the conversations breathe, the jokes run longer, and the disagreements hit harder. When it's just the Jungle, nothing gets softened.We start where the pulse always lives: the music. 21 Savage's What Happened 2 The Streets? opens a conversation about whether street rap is evolving or disappearing, and who's really carrying that sound forward. Nas and DJ Premier reunite on “Light Years,” reminding everyone what mastery sounds like when legends refuse to age quietly. Lil Tjay's “Used 2 Love” pushes the room into emotional territory, questioning whether heartbreak records still feel authentic when vulnerability becomes a formula. Friday's “Everybody Got Somebody” adds a smoother contrast, while DaBaby's “Letter to My YN” brings the conversation back to responsibility, mentorship, and what it means to speak to the next generation. Popcaan and Sway's “Tek Time” shifts the energy global, and GloRilla's “March” closes the music run with raw momentum and presence.From there, the Jungle locks in on the culture. The Diddy documentary sparks debate over accountability, timing, and who gets to control the narrative once the damage is done. Netflix and Paramount battling for Warner Bros. opens a bigger discussion about media consolidation, power plays, and how streaming is quietly reshaping what stories even get told. The firing of Ebro and Rosenberg from Hot 97 hits close to home, raising questions about loyalty, relevance, and what radio looks like in an era where platforms rise and fall overnight. And as wrestling history approaches a turning point, John Cena's final week in the ring becomes a conversation about legacy, knowing when to walk away, and whether icons ever really get to retire on their own terms.As always, the episode settles into its most honest space with the relationship talk. The squad debates whether long-term relationships thrive more when partners are similar or when opposites force each other to grow. Personal stories surface about moments when something serious was shared with a partner — only to be brushed off — and the lingering damage that dismissal can leave behind. The conversation closes with a tough, uncomfortable question: should someone even be in a relationship if they don't make at least $50,000 a year, or is that mindset reducing love to logistics?Episode 131 is reflective, argumentative, and unapologetically real. No guest. No distractions. Just the Jungle doing what it does best — saying the things most people only think.Welcome back to the Jungle.—Subscribe: YouTube.com/@JSCNetwork_ Follow: @thejunglesquadcast Ape Loso – @apeishere_ Rad – @radical_jl Rahh – @_rahhbanks#JungleSquadCast #Episode131 #HipHopCulture #NasAndPremier #21Savage #DiddyDoc #Hot97 #RelationshipTalk #PodcastUnfiltered

Is the United States already at war with Venezuela—and if so, who authorized it? The Law Talk crew reconvenes for a wide-ranging debate over presidential war powers, congressional passivity, and how far modern practice has drifted from constitutional text.

It's a major Hollywood drama: Despite striking a deal with Netflix, the high-stakes bidding war for Warner Bros. Discovery shows no sign of cooling off. The company turned down a renewed offer from Paramount of $30 a share, signaling a continued preference for the Netflix deal. Thing is, the transaction will likely draw close regulatory scrutiny from the Trump administration. But first: messy economic data and a deal to buy TikTok's U.S. operations.

They all float down here. Now that It: Welcome To Derry, the prequel to Andy Muschietti's It Chapter One and It Chapter Two, has finished its eight-episode run, the Empire Podcast has teamed up with Warner Bros. to bring you a special episode in which Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, and James Dyer conquer their fears of clowns, spiders, and spider-clowns just long enough to talk about the Andy Muschietti/Barbara Muschietti/Jason Fuchs-created show, its Stephen King connections, its brand new characters, its setting (1962 Derry, Maine), and, of course, Bill Skarsgård's Pennywise, The Dancing Clown, who's back for another bout of bloody mayhem. While not a spoiler special, our very own Losers Club do delve into the show's major twists and turns, so if you haven't seen all eight episodes, they're available to buy now on digital platforms, or you can pre-order them on DVD, Blu-ray, 4K UHD or steelbook from warnerbros.co.uk

The show kicks off with talk of a Rams watch party and whether the team is truly legit this season. There’s also a local heads-up for Cerritos residents about rising sewage fees, along with practical advice on which bills you should never skip—spoiler: pay your water bill. Michael Monks joins in with his unique take on downtown LA, offering a darkly humorous “weathervane” observation from Skid Row that signals the arrival of winter. The conversation also touches on Burbank’s decision not to pursue litigation over Warner Bros.’ sale to Netflix. Conway then shares memories of his former partner Doug Steckler, including why Steckler despised New Year’s and a hilarious story involving the “Husky section” at Montgomery Ward—one of many classic Steckler moments. The episode wraps with Eric Lisardo’s special “Conway Christmas” segment featuring the signature “Dinga DONGA,” updates from Nick Reiner, and commentary from a defense lawyer weighing in on who hired attorney Alan Jackson.

CEO David Zaslav to request that Zaslav meet with his father, Larry Ellison. The conventional wisdom was that the Oracle cofounder's billions would prevail. In the end, that didn't happen. WBD expressed concern that the bid relied on a revocable trust, whose assets or liabilities were subject to change.A zealous Paramount pulled out all the stops to woo ZaslavWe already knew Zaslav stood to make over $500 million from a Paramount deal, based mainly on his shares that would vest immediately after it closed ($567,712,631, to be exact, according to the filing). Zaslav told the WBD board that the Ellisons had "indicated to him that" if a deal went through, he would "receive a compensation package worth several hundred million dollars," per the filing. Zaslav responded that it "would be inappropriate to discuss any such arrangements at that time," he told the board.Paramount also offered Zaslav the position of co-CEO and co-chairman of the combined company, a role Netflix didn't offer, the filing said.That runs contrary to the narrative put forth in a letter Paramount's attorneys at Quinn Emanuel sent to WBD, stating they suspected the process was biased in favor of Netflix due to WBD leadership's expectations that there could be roles for them at the new company. Paramount's legal and financial advisors didn't know about the "December 3 Quinn Emanuel" letter and, in their view, the letter should not have been sent, was "not helpful," and was a "mistake," the filing says.TikTok signs agreement to create new U.S. joint ventureTikTok has signed binding agreements with investors including Oracle, Silver Lake and MGX for the sale of its US arm, creating a joint venture as part of a deal orchestrated by President Donald Trump.The U.S. joint venture will be 50% held by a consortium of new investors, including Larry Ellison's Oracle, Silver Lake and Abu Dhabi's MGX, with 15% each. Just over 30% will be held by affiliates of certain existing investors of ByteDance, and almost 20% will be retained by ByteDanceHouse Democrats release more Epstein photos, including Bill Gates and a dinner full of wealthy philanthropists Donald TrumpBill Clinton Bill Gates – Microsoft co-founderSergey Brin – Google co-founderRichard Branson – Virgin Group founderLarry Summers – Economist, Harvard President, OpenAI directorSalar Kamangar – Former YouTube CEO Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem — Emirati businessman; Chair/CEO of DP WorldLes Wexner — Founder of L BrandsLeon Black — co-founder and former CEO of Apollo Global ManagementTom Pritzker — Executive Chair Hyatt HotelsGlenn Dubin — Hedge fund manager Dubin & Co.; co-founder of Highbridge Capital Management Ron Baron — Founder & chairman of Baron Capital ManagementJosh Harris — co-founder of Apollo Global Management and managing partner of Philadelphia 76ers, New Jersey Devils, and Washington CommandersAriane de Rothschild — Wealthy banking heir; CEO of Edmond de Rothschild GroupGoodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: Canada to Launch Sustainable Investment Taxonomy in 2026According to the government, the new taxonomy will provide a set of criteria for the identification of investments that are eligible for a “green” or “transition” investment label, enabling companies to issue green or transition bonds, and investors to evaluate the credibility of sustainable investment products.MM: Tesla's having a good time at the DMVCalifornia won the right to ban sales of Tesla vehicles in the state due to false advertising about “self driving cars”MM: Walmart's women truckers surge thanks to $115,000 starting pay and other perks bringing in nontraditional candidatesAssholiest of the Week (MM):Helge LundEmbattled BP replaces CEO, naming Woodside Energy chief as first-ever woman leader of a Big Oil giant:O'Neill is “taking over the British energy behemoth at a time when it has fallen behind the other global oil and gas supermajors and was even a potential takeover target earlier this year by rival Shell.”Is there anything glass cliff-ier than this stat:Helge Lund has now overseen BP's failed Murray Auchincloss tenure, Bernard Looney's tenure, and Bob Dudley's leaving (6 year tenure) and Novo Nordisk's incredible succession failure, the failure of Nokia in 2013… I hate having to celebrate a female first - like becoming a CEO when eminently overqualifiedSam Altman againSam Altman says he has '0%' excitement about being CEO of a public company ahead of a potential OpenAI IPOHe changed it from a non profit to a for profit in order to go public and make all the money.Also: “billionaire says”Sam Altman Sounds Alarm As ChatGPT Explodes Globally: 'Rate Of Change' Sparks AI Anxiety, Job FearsSam Altman Uses His New Image Generator to Show Himself As a Jacked Fireman With Washboard Abs… With an Absolutely Hilarious ErrorSam Altman says OpenAI has gone 'code red' multiple times; and they'll do it againThe “sound the alarm” gaslightPeter C. Earle, Ph.D, Director of Economics and Economic Freedom and Senior Research Fellow at American Institute for Economic Research DRStop Fixating on CEO Pay Ratios and Start Fixing Labor Markets“The average employee is hired under conditions of broad substitutability — many people can competently perform the role with modest training. The CEO labor market is the opposite: extremely small, specialized, global, and contingent on track records that can shift a firm's valuation by billions of dollars. The demand curve for top executive talent is steep; the supply curve is extraordinarily thin.”“Skilled executives can influence strategy, capital allocation, risk management, and organizational culture in ways that affect firm performance far more than incremental labor inputs elsewhere in the organization, even if the latter are voluminous. If a CEO's decisions add even a few percentage points to long-term returns, the economic value created dwarfs the compensation.”Translation: CEOs are worth it, regular workers are not. “Such a ratio also ignores value creation. [...] The relevant question is not “Is the ratio of worker to executive pay too large?” but rather “Does the CEO create more value than their talent costs?”Does not propose how to prove value creation of the CEO other than “stock go up”Earle had this to say about leadership in 2019: “teams (also companies, organizations, groups, and so on) which experience outstanding success inevitably cite leadership as a factor — often the decisive one, and frequently emanating from a particular individual.”“But it should come as no surprise that many successful sports teams, firms, and organizations readily identify leadership as the decisive factor in their triumphs. It's a better story than merely having incredible resources and facilities, superior performance, or as is often the case: simple, garden-variety luck.”Headliniest of the WeekDR: Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary plans to step down by 2035 & Chipotle chases the protein craze with new menu items — including meat in a cupMM: LinkedIn CEO says it's ‘outdated' to have a five-year career plan: It's a ‘little bit foolish' considering the pace AI is changing the workplaceWho Won the Week?DR: Powerful women at BPMM: 4 year career plansPredictionsDR: David Ellison cancels his Netflix subscription then hires Erika Kirk to run programming at Nickelodeon and MTVMM: Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary steps down in 2035 and become executive chair, pledging to step down as executive chair in 2057.

Laci and Matt are joined by their friends AJ and Kristie from the In Love With Horror podcast to go through the history of the modern Christmas classic Elf (2003).   First, the podcast goes through the history of the movie, starting as a spec script in the '90s with Jim Carrey vaguely attached. It entered development hell for years before being revived with Will Ferrell and Jon Favreau, before ultimately becoming the classic it is today... one that you just know Warner Bros is threatening to turn into a cinematic universe at any second.

Zdelo se je, da si bo Netflix z nakupom konglomerata Warner Bros. Discovery letos za Miklaža res privoščil, a bomo morda morali za razplet prevzema počakati na Božička. Je Youtube, ki ima vse lastnosti družbenih omrežij, res toliko boljši od omrežij podjetja Meta, ki so že pregovorno ter zaradi dejanj in odločitev bolj osovražena? Kako si razlagati besede, ki se pojavljajo po vsem svetu in spreminjajo družbo (možganska gniloba, parasocialen in besolovka)? In katere so najverjetnejše tehnologije, ki jih prinaša prihodnost?

It's that time of year again—when we gather by the fire, sip something warm, and queue up… movies that *technically* take place at Christmas. This week, we're unwrapping two not-quite-but-definitely-set-during-the-holidays classics: Stanley Kubrick's eerie yuletide odyssey Eyes Wide Shut (1999) and Steven Spielberg's breezy cat-and-mouse charmer Catch Me If You Can (2002). While neither film is exactly “festive,” both use the holiday season to cast their stories in a glow equal parts melancholic and mischievous. Before diving into our gift-wrap-adjacent double feature, our Blue Plate Special is packed with plenty of cinematic goodies waiting under the tree. We break down the eyebrow-raising possibility of Warner Bros. being sold to either Netflix or Paramount/Skydance—and what such a shake-up could mean for the future of the film industry. We also share our thoughts on several recent releases we've caught (Sentimental Value, The History of Sound, Jay Kelly, and Pavements), react to Quentin Tarantino's recent comments about Paul Dano and 21st-century cinema, relive our theatrical experience seeing Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair, and pay tribute to the recent losses of Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Jim Ward, Jeff Garcia, Peter Greene, and the legendary Rob Reiner.

We start with breaking corporate news as Warner Bros. Discovery is expected to reject Paramount's latest acquisition offer, choosing instead to move forward with its $82.7 billion Netflix deal. If finalized, Netflix would gain control of Warner Bros. Games, including massive IP like Mortal Kombat, DC, Harry Potter, and more. We discuss whether Netflix will license these franchises out—or finally go all-in on games—and what this could mean for the future of AAA development. Next, we look at alarming new data showing US hardware sales and physical game spending just hit their worst November in 30 years. Despite heavy Black Friday promotions, record-high console prices dragged sales down, even as PS5 emerged as the best-selling console for the month. We break down what this says about the future of physical games, hardware pricing, and consumer behavior. Then we tackle the ongoing AI controversy in game development, as Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke responds forcefully to backlash over AI usage following The Game Awards. Vincke makes it clear: artists are not being replaced. We discuss where AI fits responsibly in modern game development—and where players are drawing the line. The episode also covers Bungie's major Marathon update, including a March 2026 release date, revamped visuals, deeper PvE, hardcore gameplay shifts, solo playlists, expanded weapon mod systems, and new lore teases. After months of controversy, Bungie appears to be rebuilding trust—so we ask: Is Marathon finally back on track? And can it stand alongside competitors like Arc Raiders? Plus, listener questions and reactions on Bungie, PlayStation strategy, and shooter fatigue.

Plus: The U.S. approves more than $11 billion in arms sales to Taiwan. And, Warner Bros. demands Larry Ellison's give a personal guarantee to backstop Paramount's takeover bid. Luke Vargas hosts.
