Podcast appearances and mentions of warner bros discovery

Shortly after the final Enduro World Cup race of the 2026 season, Warner Brothers Discovery and the UCI made the surprise announcement that the series will not continue for 2027. Despite the uncertain future that leaves for top-tier professional Enduro racing, the announcement was met with a surprising amount of excitement from athletes, and a real sense of optimism that something better can rise from the ashes of the short-lived EDR series. So we brought professional racer Eric Olsen back on the show to discuss all of it. The full press release from the UCI can be read here. Note: We Want to Hear From You!

Grosse semaine sur les marchés. Kevin Warsh prononce vendredi son premier discours de président de la Fed à Jackson Hole, dans un contexte inhabituel : trois présidents de Fed régionales ont voté pour une hausse de taux en juillet, du jamais-vu depuis 2016. Le marché price une chance sur trois d'une hausse en septembre, pas une baisse. Le PCE de juillet sort mercredi, juste avant Nvidia qui publie ses résultats le même jour, avec en toile de fond le retour discret des puces H200 en Chine chez ByteDance et Tencent. Au menu aussi : le bras de fer Paramount Skydance contre les régulateurs américains sur le rachat de Warner Bros Discovery, Disney qui attaque la FCC en justice, Tesla qui prépare le lancement public de son robotaxi à Austin, et un marché obligataire américain sous tension qui complique la vie de tout le monde. Sans oublier la France et son budget 2027, déjà sous pression avant même d'être écrit.

The CFO of Walmart joins the show, first on CNBC, with his reaction to results as the stock pulls back on concerns about U.S. sales.

The Attorney General's job is to enforce the laws on behalf of their people, and state Attorney Generals are even more essential now that we have a federal Attorney general who's made it clear he doesn't work for the people, but for the president. AG Bonta reminds us that lawsuits aren't about slapping lawbreakers on the wrist, but structural remedies that make the law work better for the people. Among other things, we discuss the lawsuit blocking the Paramount Skydance merger with Warner Brothers Discovery, and what State AG's can do to protect our upcoming elections.

While the U.S. Department of Justice opted not to question Paramount Skydance's proposed acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery, 12 state attorneys general and the Writers Guild of America are taking the media giants to court to block the sale. Antitrust expert Patrick Neville from Parsons Behle & Latimer joins Mountain Money to break down the legal theories behind the suits, how market definition and monopsony power play into the case, and what the high-stakes battle means for Hollywood and consumers.

This week on CounterSpin: It was not a shock when Donald Trump's Justice Department greenlit the merger of Paramount—owned by the scion of the Trump-adjacent Ellison family—with Warner Bros Discovery. Who cares if a single entity (that loves Donald Trump and all he stands for) controls a vast empire of the movies, cable TV and streaming services we have access to? It turns out a lot of people care, and that's why the merger, presented as a done deal weeks ago, is actually on the ropes. We'll get a state of play from Jessica Gonzalez, co-CEO of the public advocacy group Free Press. Also on the show: A sitting congressperson stated publicly: “Every single Muslim holding public office in America is a Trojan horse, and a threat to both national security and our republic. We refuse to be silent.” The fig leaf, if there were one, is off. Folks are just out here saying all Muslims (well, except for Dr. Oz) are devils, criminals, evil—and woe betide anyone who doesn't sign up for that perverse, hateful view. News media could declare such racist, ignorant, ahistorical, anti-democratic—did i say racist?—they could call all that out, and remove anyone spouting it from respectful public conversation. But: We have the media we have, so people who hate Muslims because they're Muslim have a seat at the grown-up table, and a microphone. Islamophobia in media is not new. It wasn't new when FAIR produced a report about it in 2008. We'll hear today a conversation we had around that report, which we called Smearcasting: How Islamophobes Spread Fear, Bigotry and Misinformation, with former FAIR staffers Isabel MacDonald and Steve Rendall. CounterSpin provides a critical examination of the each week's major news stories, and exposes what the mainstream media may have missed in their own coverage. Produced by the national media watch group FAIR (Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting). The post Jessica Gonzalez on Paramount Merger, Isabel MacDonald and Steve Rendall (2008) on Islamophobia appeared first on KPFA.

The entertainment industry is at a crossroads, with a major merger between Paramount and Warner Brothers Discovery on the horizon. But what does this mean for the future of streaming and the state of California? In this episode, we dive into the details of the proposed merger and the lawsuit filed by California Attorney General Bob Bonta to block it.The merger between Paramount and Warner Brothers Discovery would create a massive media conglomerate with control over a significant portion of the film and television industry. But Bonta argues that this would lead to a loss of competition and higher prices for consumers. He's not alone in his concerns, as many in the industry are worried about the impact of mega mergers on the economy and the creative community. But is this a case of politics or a genuine concern for the future of the industry?The speaker shares his thoughts on the matter, weighing the pros and cons of the merger and the lawsuit. He also discusses the changing landscape of the entertainment industry, including the rise of streaming services and the decline of traditional television. With the future of the industry hanging in the balance, it's time to take a closer look at the proposed merger and its potential consequences.Join us as we explore the complexities of the Paramount-Warner Brothers Discovery merger and the lawsuit that's got everyone talking. Listen in as we discuss the impact on the industry, the economy, and the consumers. Will the merger go through, or will Bonta's lawsuit block it?

Warner Bros. Discovery confirmed a live-action The Jetsons movie starring Jim Carrey on its Q2 2026 earnings call, and Frank breaks down why the casting is doing all the heavy lifting so far. A Jetsons reboot on its own would be an easy shrug. The Flintstones already ran that play in the 90s. What makes this one different is that Carrey is in the middle of a genuine second wind, coming off the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise and heading into a Grinch remake.Frank makes the case that Warner Bros. has the tools to do something stranger than a straight adaptation. Barbie proved the studio will greenlight a meta take on a legacy property, and The Jetsons is sitting on an obvious hook: the retro-futurist world the show promised in 1962 is not the future anyone actually got. Pull George Jetson into the real 2026 and let him ask where his flying car went while he stares at a Roomba. That is a movie with a reason to exist beyond nostalgia.The segment closes with a look at the rest of the earnings call, which mostly reaffirmed titles already on the books. Aegon's Conquest from the Game of Thrones universe, the next Matrix installment, and the next Batman film all sit on the same post-2027 slate as The Jetsons.Solo segment, no guest on this one.0:00 Jim Carrey lands The Jetsons0:24 The Jim Carrey second wind, from Sonic to The Grinch0:40 What a Barbie-style meta approach could unlock0:58 Making a Jetsons movie worth watching1:11 Digging through the rest of the WB earnings callJim Carrey is attached to star in a live-action The Jetsons, presumably as George Jetson, confirmed on the Warner Bros.

But, here’s a local story of interest: After seven years of planning, a new seniors lodge will be built in Vulcan to replace the Peter Dawson Lodge, which was built in 1963. According to spokesperson Kelly Nelson, while the Dawson Lodge is reportedly in “really good shape,” it no longer meets current building standards. “The rooms are too small, we have inside rooms without any windows to the outside,” said Nelson, adding seniors don't want to move in until they have a room with a window. The new facility, expected to open in 2028, will have 62 affordable-housing units. Vulcan Mayor Tom Grant said Thursday the new facility will be a “win-win” for the community.

Jamie Dimon gaat Warren Buffett achterna. Ook hij vindt dat er geen goede aankopen meer te vinden zijn op de beurs. Al jaren dramt Dimon bij elke cijferpublicatie van zijn bank dat er een lange lijst aan risico's boven de markt hangt. Geopolitieke spanningen, instabiele inflatie, expoloderende staatsschulden: de kans is groot dat ze niet voldoende worden ingeprijst, denkt Dimon. Moet jij hem daarin volgen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. We hebben het ook over Samsung. Die maken al chips, koelkasten, televisies, telefoons, en nog veel meer. Maar het is allemaal niet genoeg. Ze gaan nu ook aan de humanoïde robots. Er wordt een aparte divisie voor opgezet, onder leiding van een van de co-CEO's zelf. Gaan ze de concurrentiestrijd met bijvoorbeeld Tesla winnen? Verder hoor je ook over een poging van de Londense beurs om weer aandacht te krijgen. Daarom gaan ze de openingstijden flink verbreden. Ze willen eigenlijk handel 24 uur per dag mogelijk maken. En we vertellen je hoe de strijd tussen farmaceuten Novo Nordisk en Eli Lilly nu naar de rechtszaal wordt verplaatst.

Photo: “Water is life. Life is water”, said AFN Newfoundland Regional Chief Brendan Mitchell during the 2026 Assembly of First Nations. (Courtesy Assembly of First Nations / Facebook) First Nations chiefs in Canada have gathered in Ottawa for a three-day general assembly. High on the agenda for the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) is the issue of clean water. As Dan Karpenchuk reports, many of the chiefs say Ottwa's new proposed clean water legislation appears to walk back their hard won rights. The new proposed legislation is in line with a preivous bill that failed to pass under the government of former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Some chiefs are taking issue with new changes to the wording that no longer explicitly recognizes First Nations rights to clean drinking water … as a human right. The new bill was recently introduced with the aim of making sure that Indigenous people have reliable access to clear drinking water in their communities, according to Algonquins of Pikwakanagan First Nation Chief Greg Sarazin. “We need to protect water. We need sustainable water. There needs to be legislation that ensures safe, clean, sustainable drinking water.” About 100 chiefs and community members recently held a march for clean drinking water. Brendan Mitchell, a regional chief from Newfoundland, says the issue is critical, but no longer appears to be a priority with the federal government. “Previously in meetings with the former prime minister, three times, I heard him state at a meeting like this, that no relationship was more important to him than his relationship with the Indigenous people of Canada. I've yet to hear our current prime minister say that.” The AFN is considering a proposed resolution that calls on chiefs to demand the right to clean water be included in new legislation. Executive chef Nephi Craig prepares a dish at Café Gozhóó in Whiteriver, Ariz., in Feburary 2026. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) The food sovereignty movement is teaching tribes to reclaim healthier and more sustainable food systems. And a new memoir penned by one of Arizona's most popular Indigenous chefs is giving direction. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio reports. Executive Chef Nephi Craig is in charge of Café Gozhóó in Whiteriver and is now the author of “Our Knives Will Save Us: Dispatches from a White Mountain Apache Chef”. “I'm 46 years old and 15 years into my sobriety, and I wanted to write a story that is a tool for others.” His modern, scratch kitchen inside a renovated gas station employs fellow Apaches recovering from substance abuse. “This is our legacy: To make health and healing an everyday practice, bringing back ceremonies, planting songs, cooking recipes, hunting, language – all of that great stuff. That way, it doesn't matter if you're in New York or on the rez.” “Dark Winds” shoots in New Mexico. (Courtesy AMC) New Mexico’s high tax incentives meant to lure film production crews are paying off – even in remote or rural communities. Roz Brown has more. After reaching a financial high mark in 2022, the state’s film industry took a hit starting the next year, after two Hollywood strikes. Now, it is showing modest gains, thanks in part to the “Uplift” program, designed to encourage film and television producers to choose more rural communities or those off the beaten path. Film Office Director Steve Graham says productions spent $325 million in the recent fiscal year – nearly a quarter in locations beyond Santa Fe and Albuquerque. “There’s a historically high mark now, from $57 million dollars worth of shooting in the rural areas. It means the uplift worked and it has spread activity across the state.” Graham says smaller towns such as Truth or Consequences and Ruidoso have shared in the windfall, along with Las Cruces – which is larger than Santa Fe, but failed to attract as many film productions until recently. The 1940 film “Grapes of Wrath” shot in New Mexico. The Uplift program benefitted from Senate Bill 12, which was signed by the governor in 2023 and increased the tax credit from 5-10%. That is in addition to the state’s 25% base film credit for expenditures on productions filmed at least 60 miles from city halls in Albuquerque or Santa Fe. New Mexico is among the top five states with the most competitive film and television tax incentives. In the past year, it has hosted 63 productions, including the hit television show, “Dark Winds”. Graham says great weather, iconic locations, robust infrastructure, world-class crews, and support from local businesses add to its appeal. “Some of the things that make it hard to shoot in larger jurisdictions, they don’t have to deal with here. Permits are inexpensive or free. Traffic is low or nonexistent. There’s places to park. It’s easy to get around.” Graham is optimistic about the film industry’s future, but he is also watching a lawsuit New Mexico joined last week to prevent a merger between Paramount Skydance Corporation and Warner Brothers Discovery. While federal regulators approved the $110 billion transaction, a coalition of attorney generals in 12 U.S. states led by California have since filed an antitrust lawsuit to block the deal. They claim it would create an illegal monopoly, stifle competition, and hurt entertainment workers. 19th Century illustration of Vitus Bering’s expedition wrecked on the Aleutian Islands in 1741. And on this day in 1741, Danish explorer Vitus Bering, sailing for Russia, sighted Alaska’s coast near Mount St. Elias during the Great Northern Expedition. The voyage marked the beginning of sustained Russian contact with Alaska Native peoples, forever changing the lives of Unangax̂ (Aleut), Alutiiq/Sugpiaq, Yup’ik, and other Indigenous communities through the fur trade and eventual colonization.

JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, CitiGroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo: het cijferseizoen begint met vuurwerk. De Amerikaanse grootbanken verpletteren de verwachtingen. JP Morgan noteert zelfs met 21 miljard dollar de hoogste winst ooit voor de bank. Maar toch is één bank niet zo vrolijk. Ondanks een prachtig kwartaal waarschuwt Bank of America voor té enthousiaste beleggers. Waar komt dat recordkwartaal vandaan? En wat moet je nou doen met die waarschuwing? Deze aflevering zoeken we het voor je uit. Verder hebben we het over dé overnamedeal van het afgelopen halfjaar. Die van Warner Brothers Discovery door Paramount Skydance. De deal dreigt alsnog in het water te vallen, nu 12 Amerikaanse staten er bezwaar tegen hebben. Ze starten een rechtszaak omdat ze bang zijn dat klanten, bioscopen én distributeurs benadeeld worden door de overname. Je hoort ook nog over het drama bij tech-ancienne IBM. Daar verdampt een kwart van de waarde na een tegenvallend cijferrapport. En je komt erachter wat het geheim is van de 16-jarige die beter belegt dan jij.

Voor wie dacht dat Nike nu eindelijk met goed nieuws zou komen, zat mis. Het herstel (waar beleggers al jaren op wachten) laat nóg langer op zich wachten. Dat is de conclusie na het zien van de kwartaalcijfers. Vooral China springt eruit: de omzetdaling wordt daar alleen maar erger. Je raadt het dus al: de vooruitblik ziet er niet goed uit. De komende zes maanden zullen de omstandigheden niet verbeteren, denkt de directie. Deze aflevering kijken we of er nog lichtpuntjes in de cijfers vindbaar zijn. Wat voor jou als aandeelhouder (of potentiële aandeelhouder) het houvast is in deze resultaten. En wanneer dan ein-de-lijk dat herstel gaat plaatsvinden. Hoor je ook alles over de plannen van Basic-Fit. Dat heeft namelijk wéér een bedrijf overgenomen. Dit keer een in Duitsland. We kijken of de fitnessketen nu ook zelf breder wordt en of ze het aandeel meer gaan oppompen. Het aandeel Meta wordt ook opgepompt. Je hoort waarom het aandeel even 10 procent (!) in de plus staat. Praten we je ook bij over de crypto-inkomsten van president Trump. Die heeft even een miljard dollar verdiend met zijn belangen in de digitale munt. En Maxim heeft een prachtig verhaal over de gekke hobby van Mark Zuckerberg. Te gast: Thomas Pellegrom van ABN Amro MeesPierson BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn.

Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren.

The British government says it could step in to challenge Paramount Skydance's $110 billion takeover of Warner Bros Discovery. Also, French inflation slowed to just 1.8 percent in June year-on-year, down from 2.4 percent in May. Plus, more than 1 million undocumented people in Spain apply to obtain legal status as part of an economic bet that immigration is what's keeping the country's growth alive.

Today's Headlines: Trump's 80th birthday UFC fight at the White House went ahead as planned, sponsored by Meta, Polymarket, Bud Light, and Monster Energy, with fighters' bonuses paid in Trump crypto instead of actual dollars, weigh-ins at the Lincoln Memorial, and a crowd of million-dollar VIP ticket holders plus military members pre-screened for waist-to-height ratio — just as the Founders intended. The $14 million reflecting pool renovation, completed mere days ago, is already growing green algae because the color choice is algae growth friendly, which is a perfect metaphor. The Kennedy Center name removal deadline came and went with maximum drama — the Trump administration filed last-minute court motions to stop it, millions watched a live stream of construction workers put up a giant tarp, though the tarp remains up for unclear reasons. On the war beat, The US and Iran reportedly agreed on a peace deal, with a formal signing scheduled for Friday in Switzerland — terms not fully disclosed because the administration was busy with the birthday cage match — but the Navy blockade will end and the Strait of Hormuz will open toll-free when signed, kicking off 60 days of nuclear negotiations. The deal was briefly delayed by Israel launching strikes on Beirut, prompting Trump to tell Axios "Why did Bibi have to do a f---ing attack? I was so pissed off. He has no f---ing judgement" — which is a remarkable thing to say about your closest ally on your birthday. On the erosion of free press, the DOJ approved Paramount's $110 billion acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery, with Bari Weiss reportedly set to oversee CNN as well as CBS News after the deal closes, because apparently the documented viewership collapse at CBS wasn't enough of a red flag. And finally, Argentina's Javier Milei submitted legislation to create a legal category for "non-human corporations" — essentially corporate personhood for AI systems — as part of his plan to make Argentina the Silicon Valley of unregulated AI, which Peter Thiel is presumably thrilled about.

Hawk walks through Jonathan V. Last's Bulwark newsletter "The Murder of 60 Minutes," a deep look at how Barry Weiss and the Ellisons are systematically dismantling CBS News and 60 Minutes to appease Donald Trump and clear the path for billion-dollar media mergers. 60 Minutes generated $206 million in advertising revenue in 2024, yet CBS's corporate parent Paramount SkyDance is willing to destroy a profitable and iconic institution. David Ellison paid $150 million for Barry Weiss's Free Press website and installed her at CBS News, where the ratings have cratered across the board. Correspondents Sharon Alphonse and Cecilia Vega were pushed out. Producers Tanya Simon and Drag Mihalovich were fired. Leslie Stahl was bypassed for a Netanyahu interview she had worked on for months. Hawk connects this to the broader pattern of corporate surrender: law firms, universities, media companies, and figures like Jeff Bezos publicly capitulating to Trump in exchange for favorable regulatory treatment. Larry Ellison has reportedly already discussed what he plans to do to CNN anchors Trump dislikes, with Warner Brothers Discovery in Ellison's sights next.

Kristian breaks down everything we know so far and what it could mean for DC Studios moving forward. Next, legendary producer Jerry Bruckheimer is developing a new animated musical titled Epic Odyssey. This project reportedly originated as a viral TikTok sensation that exploded in popularity—so how does that translate into a full-scale film? We discuss the growing trend of social media concepts turning into major studio productions and whether this one has real potential. Over in a galaxy far, far away, we've got a fascinating update on The Mandalorian and Grogu. The director has revealed an unexpected connection involving Martin Scorsese and themes tied to his film Alien. How does that influence the tone or direction of the Star Wars universe? Kristian dives into what this could mean for the future of the franchise and how it connects to the larger storytelling landscape. Marvel fans won't want to miss this—new details have emerged about Spider-Noir, including episode runtimes and early talk of a possible Season 2.

Two entertainment and media powerhouses are likely to become one. So why aren't the artists happy about it?Backlash against a possible merger between the media companies Paramount Skydance and Warner Brothers Discovery increased this week when more than 2,000 actors, writers and directors signed a letter opposing the deal. The letter warns that the merger will result in “fewer opportunities for creators, fewer jobs across the production ecosystem, higher costs, and less choice for audiences in the United States and around the world.”  Damon Lindelof created "The Leftovers", "Watchmen" and helped create the hit series "Lost." He was one of the artists to sign the letter, and he explains his decision to NPR's Mary Louise Kelly. For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Marc Rivers and Karen Zamora.It was edited by Christopher Intagliata and Courtney Dorning.Our executive producer is Sami Yenigun.To manage podcast ad preferences, review the links below:See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
