Send us a textToday's episode is my conversation about the 1928 film Our Dancing Daughters. My friend Vicki Lesly from the Meandering Over the Pebbles newsletter joins me to discuss the film and we talk about some incredible cinematography choices that absolutely merited a nomination in that category at the 2nd Academy Awards, how this film began Joan Crawford's rise to stardom, and subsequent films that have been influenced by Our Dancing Daughters.You can watch Our Dancing Daughters on YouTube and be sure to check out Vicki's newsletter.Other films mentioned in this episode include:2001: A Space Odessey directed by Stanley KubrickDr. Strangelove directed by Stanley KubrickFrom Here to Eternity directed by Fred ZinnemannBabylon directed by Damien ChazelleWhat Ever Happened to Baby Jane? directed by Robert AldrichThe Last Command directed by Josef von SternbergRebecca directed by Alfred HitchcockThe Brutalist directed by Brady CorbetOur Modern Maidens directed by Jack ConwayOur Blushing Brides directed by Harry BeaumontThe Atom: A Love Affair directed by Vicki LesleyOther referenced topics:Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice SendakMotion Picture Magazine review of Our Dancing DaughtersMotion Picture Classic review of Our Dancing DaughtersOur Dancing Daughters on joancrawfordbest.com

The 60s produced a Baby Boom generation that catalyzed the dawn of a new era—the space age, the age of television, the global age, and the beginnings of civil rights. At the same time, a new paradigm for parenting was unfolding that put emphasis on permissiveness, defined by what it permitted – the free and unfettered impulses of children. Others worried that the wildness of children, personified by the characters in Maurice Sendak's 1963 classic children's book, Where the Wild Things Are, was destructive, disruptive and disrespectful. Where the Wild Things Were: Boyhood and Permissive Parenting in Postwar America (NYU Press, 2025) centers on the exploding, contentious national conversation about the nature of childhood and parenting in the postwar US emblematized by Dr. Spock's Baby and Child Care. Renowned scholar Henry Jenkins demonstrates that the language that shaped a growing field of advice literature for parents also informed the period's fictions—in film, television, comics, children's books, and elsewhere—produced for and consumed by children. In particular, Jenkins demonstrates, the era's emblematic child was the boy in the striped shirt: white, male, suburban, middle class, Christian, and above all, American. Weaving together intellectual histories and popular texts, Jenkins shows how boy protagonists became embodiments of permissive child rearing, as well as the social ideals and contradictions that permissiveness entailed. From Peanuts comic strips and TV specials to The Cat in the Hat, Dennis the Menace, and Jonny Quest, the book reveals how childhood and the stories about it became central to Cold War concerns with democracy, citizenship, globalization, the space race, science, race relations, gender, and sexuality. Written by a former boy in a striped shirt, Where the Wild Things Were explores iconic works, from Mary Poppins to Lost in Space, contextualizing them through a critical but respectful engagement with the core animating ideas of the permissive imagination.

What has play got to do with suffering?  Annie F. Downs has built her career on having fun. Her New York Times bestseller titles include That Sounds Fun, Remember God, and 100 Days to Brave. Her new book for kids seems very different from the fun-loving Downs.  Downs explains how the death of her nephew TJ led her to write a children's book to help kids (and grownups) understand suffering and loss at the same time as the love of God.  In this episode, Downs tells us what surprised her about how kids respond to this kind of suffering and what that taught her about getting rid of fake platitudes, about what to do when someone you love is hurting, and about how to genuinely grieve while still recognizing a world of joy, hope, and even fun. Resources mentioned in this episode or recommended by the guest include: Where Did TJ Go? By Annie F. Downs Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak Harriet the Spy by Louise Fitzhugh Starring Sally J.

If you're looking for a delightful new children's book to add to your little one's collection, you'll want to check out "Jeddy's Teddy" by actor-turned-author Jed Bernard. In this fun and insightful conversation, Jed chats with host Jed Doherty about his journey from the screen to the page, and the special bond between a boy and his beloved teddy bear. Jed shares the true story behind "Jeddy's Teddy," which he wrote this past July and released in October. As a child, Jed was quite attached to his teddy bear, Tommy, who became his best friend during a time when Jed struggled with a speech impediment. Jed fondly recalls using his imagination to take Tommy on all sorts of adventures, just like the kids do in classic books like "Where the Wild Things Are." The discussion touches on the importance of imagination and unstructured play in child development - something Jed feels is being lost in our tech-driven world. He emphasizes the magic that can happen when parents take the time to read aloud to their kids, using different voices and accents to bring the story to life. Jed also opens up about his own path, from overcoming speech challenges to pursuing a career in acting. He explains how writing "Jeddy's Teddy" allowed him to have more creative control, compared to the collaborative nature of his on-screen work. Whether you're a parent, educator, or just a lover of heartwarming tales, this episode is sure to leave you inspired. So grab a cozy blanket, snuggle up with your little ones, and get ready to dive into the world of Jed and his beloved teddy bear!

Jo Plaete, a pioneer in digital humans and chief innovation officer at Metaphysic, joins the podcast to discuss his company's groundbreaking work on the newly released film Here, now in theaters. Jo traces his journey from his early career in computer graphics and visual effects, working on films like Where the Wild Things Are and Aladdin, to creating cutting-edge AI-driven tools that enable photorealistic de-aging of actors like Tom Hanks and Robin Wright. His experience includes collaborating with Disney Research on facial reconstruction technologies and pushing the boundaries of neural network-based visual effects. Jo also explains how Metaphysic's tools provided real-time feedback on set, allowing filmmakers to see younger versions of the actors instantly. This innovation enabled directors and actors to evaluate performances live, making adjustments on the spot to achieve the most authentic and emotionally resonant portrayal. Jo reflects on the future of digital humans in cinema, emphasizing how AI and real-time feedback are reshaping storytelling while maintaining a high level of artistic control.

This week we're discussing every album by Metallica from 1991-1998. This is such a strange era for the band. They dominated the world of rock music with 1991's The Black Album, then returned 5 years later with short hair, eyeliner, and southern hard rock songs.

The Drunk Guys have a wild beer-infused rumpus this week when they read Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. And some people call them Maurice, including: The Piff by Sixpoint, Stooper by Sixpoint, and Return of the Bretti by Wild East Brewing. Join the Drunk Guys next Tuesday

Get ready to feel smart as Tom teaches us the science behind cute aggression. How does the urge to squeeze something cute help us stay regulated? Mike is reminded of favorite books that depict this dimorphous emotion--from the Where the Wild Things Are to More, More, More Said the Baby. Mike and Ross show off their brain chemistry knowledge. Perhaps cute aggression also has a role to play in rough and tumble play between friends.

Season 4, episode 18: Where the Wild Things Are. We did it again! We disappeared on you all - but now we are back! And unfortunately we are kicking things off with the horniest episode of Buffy ever made, and which totally made our skin crawl. Thankfully all the other characters had interesting storylines and fun lines so we could mostly ignore Buffy and Riley!

We're back from an unexpected hiatus and return to Elwood City with our pal Ryan Walterson to discuss a special from Arthur's later years. How do we feel about the flash animation and this episode's attempt at a joint "Where the Wild Things Are" parody and time travel episode? Will our childhoods be RUINED FOREVER???? Listen and find out! --- Edited by Jacob Miller Show Logo by Marissa Thorburn Theme by AndyHG and Tyler Green

Scotty talks to award-winning author Rena Mason about her upbringing in both northern California and upstate New York, her early introduction to horror through "Godzilla" and Maurice Sendak's "Where the Wild Things Are," how a bad experience with an English professor, family obligations, and her career as an OR nurse steered her away from a literary career, but how a frustrating encounter with a disappointing "domestic drama" novel (which she thought would have been greatly improved by a third-act appearance by a famous movie slasher) convinced her to give writing a try. She discusses her influences from Stephen King, Shirley Jackson, and Clive Barker, and how her "blender" approach to genre lead to her strange, disturbing--and deeply satisfying--novel "The Evolutionist" (2013, Nightscape Press, winner of the Bram Stoker Award for Superior Achievement in a First Novel). Rena and Scotty also talk about her Jack the Ripper-themed novella "East End Girls" (2013, Cemetary Dance Publications), how she developed her ear for dialogue, the joys (and dangers) of research rabbit-holes, balancing the demands for creating shorter content against the desire to keep writing longer work, and more. And Rena extols the virtues of the 1973 British occult biker movie "Psychomania"...which unfortunately Scotty didn't get to watch beforehand because of a weather-related mishap with his Internet (c'est la vie). You can find Rena online at https://www.renamason.ink You can find "The Evolutionist" at https://www.encyclopocalypse.com/product/the-evolutionist-rena-mason/125?cs=true&cst=custom You can find "East End Girls" at https://www.amazon.com/East-End-Girls-Rena-Mason/dp/B088JXC25B/ Be sure to tune in to Daniel Braum's YouTube series "Night Time Logic."

Blackout! Records was formed in 1988 by Bill Wilson and Jim Gibson. In 1989, the label released its album, a New York hardcore compilation album entitled Where the Wild Things Are.[1] The album included tracks from Sheer Terror, Killing Time, and others. After this first release, Gibson amicably parted company to start his own record label, Noiseville Records.  The label ended the 1990s with records from Killing Time, Kill Your Idols, and East Bay/ Berkeley bands Redemption 87 and Powerhouse. The early part of the 2000s brought some new blood, including Crime In Stereo, NJ's The Banner, The Procedure, and The Commercials. The last official Blackout! release was The Fire Still Burns in 2005. Although no longer releasing new music, the label still maintains a blog at its website which is infrequently updated and has the catalog available digitally on Amazon, iTunes, eMusic, Rhapsody, and other major digital outlets through The Orchard. I got Bill on the Skype and this is what we chat about Growing up with a genetic immune condition Designing the artwork for the Where The Wild Things Are Comp How he got albums in record stores Traveling on Lollapalooza The Goops H20 Plow United Kill Your Idols Business partner trying to steal his label Will he start putting out more records And a ton more Lastly I started doing whiteboard animations so if your marketing department has said recently “Hey, we need a whiteboard animation” then email me at mike@drive80.com Feel free to support  the podcast for as little as $1 a month through Patreon

Maurice Sendak, author of “Where the Wild Things Are” and “Alligators All Around,” is the focus of the Skirball Center’s new exhibit, which includes original art and first editions of his books.  The Supreme Court ruled that former President Trump has immunity for some of his official acts. How will this affect his federal trial regarding the January 6 insurrection?  The Supreme Court recently ruled that cities have the right to break up encampments of unhoused people under anti-camping ordinances. What does the Grants Pass v. Johnson ruling mean for LA? Press Play rebroadcasts our ur last in-person interview at the beginning of the COVID pandemic — it was with musician/humorist Kinky Friedman.

“What is a greater expression of love than eating someone else or wanting to consume and have that person in a way that no one else can have?” Dr. Nicola Welsh-Burke joins to delve into the intriguing topic of cannibalism in romance novels. We explore the intersection of food, eating, and sexuality, discuss the metaphorical use of cannibalism in literature, and examine the societal taboos and fascinations with the concept. The conversation touches upon various themes such as erotic vampirism, werewolf lore, incorrect eating, and how these elements are used to explore deeper human desires and fears.Media Mentioned/Discussed:Blood and Chocolate by Annette Curtis KlauseTooth and Claw series by Heather GuerreWhere the Wild Things Are by Maurice SendakHannibal (TV show)A Certain Hunger by Chelsea G.

Here's a sobering thought: The older we get, the harder it is for us to learn, to question, to reimagine. This isn't just habit hardening into dogma. It's encoded into the way our brains change as we age. And it's worsened by an intellectual and economic culture that prizes efficiency and dismisses play.Alison Gopnik is a professor of psychology and philosophy at the University of California, Berkeley, where she runs the Cognitive Development and Learning Lab; she's also the author of over 100 papers and half a dozen books, including “The Gardener and the Carpenter” and “The Philosophical Baby.” What I love about her work is she takes the minds of children seriously. The child's mind is tuned to learn. They are, she writes, the R. & D. departments of the human race. But a mind tuned to learn works differently from a mind trying to exploit what it already knows.So instead of asking what children can learn from us, perhaps we need to reverse the question: What can we learn from them?In this conversation, recorded in April 2021, Gopnik and I discuss the way children think, the cognitive reasons social change so often starts with the young, and the power of play. We talk about why Gopnik thinks children should be considered an entirely different form of Homo sapiens, the crucial difference between “spotlight” consciousness and “lantern” consciousness, why “going for a walk with a 2-year-old is like going for a walk with William Blake,” what A.I. researchers are borrowing from human children, the effects of different types of meditation on the brain and more.Book recommendations:Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice SendakMary Poppins in the Park by P.L.
