At the age of 80, Broadway legend André De Shields now starring in "CATS: The Jellicle Ball."

He made his Broadway debut in the title role of the 1975 original production of "The Wiz."

It's summertime and the World Cup is heating up. Adam's favorite team, Spain, dominated France in the first semifinal match. Jack is holding out hope that his England squad can pull off the win against Argentina and his most-hated player--Messi. The Wiz are playing it safe by shutting down Dybantsa, Riley, and Johnson from the summer league. Trump continues to embarrass himself and everyone around him. RIP to Mitch McConnell. Oh wait, Lindsey Graham. That's right, he's the one.

A few weeks ago, “Cannonball” hosted its first live show at the 2026 Tribeca Festival. Wesley Morris thought to himself, “What could we talk about in front of a bunch of New Yorkers that would be interesting to them?” And then the answer came to him: New York movies! Movies about New York City. Joining him for the conversation is Cynthia Nixon, one of our great New Yorkers. She's made iconic work in the city (like, of course, “Sex and the City”) and is a fierce advocate for the TV and film industry to continue making work here. Also, no big deal, she ran for governor in 2018. Together, Wesley and Cynthia chat about three N.Y.C. movies of their choice: “Breakfast at Tiffany's,” “The Taking of Pelham 123" and “The Wiz.” Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Also featuring: Richard Pryor, Lena Horne, Nipsey Russell, Mabel King, graffiti Munchkins, crow monsters, poppy girls, and way more long slow musical numbers than anyone really wanted.

Let's put on a show! It's season 8 for Paul and Corey Cross the Streams, and this season we're watching musicals. It's a singular art form with a dynamic history, and we get to listen to a lot of cast recordings... This week, Paul continued along, and is now easing down, the Yellow Brick Road as he and Corey discuss The Wiz (1978). It's another example of a film adaptation of a hit Broadway show that radically reimagines the book and premise - for good or for ill. Paul and Corey discuss the historic exclusion of Black musicals from Broadway, as well as the conditions that led to a welcome influx of them in the early 1970s. They talk about the somewhat fraught pre-production, and the people (Geoffrey Holder, Stephanie Mills) and events that led to its rousing success. They also talk about how Motown Productions came to produce the film, some of the history of the company, and most especially the involvement of Diana Ross behind and in front of the camera. The Wiz (the film) was a critical and box-office failure at the time of its release; however, it found its audience and has become its own cultural institution. Paul and Corey discuss what works and what doesn't and how much of the blame can and should be attributed to having the film directed by Sydney Lumet(!) and written by Joel Schumacher(!!).

The federal government's human capital arm added several new industry partners to its Tech Force hiring effort Monday as the program begins to take root in agencies. The new batch of companies is Cisco, Scale AI, Wiz, Arista Networks, Armada, Cognition AI, Cognizant, Payward, and Moveworks, per a release from the Office of Personnel Management. They join a cohort of a couple dozen companies that are already part of the program's industry support, including OpenAI, Google Public Sector, xAI, and Palantir. “These partnerships bring world-class engineering expertise into public service and create a stronger pipeline between industry and government at a moment when modernizing federal technology has never been more important,” OPM Director Scott Kupor said in a written statement Monday. According to the release, the companies will provide training resources and programming, as well as their own employees who they'll nominate for temporary federal service.

(Originally aired: 7/7/25)This week, the one and only Wiz Khalifa brings the chill - and a smile that could light up the world. The multi-platinum rapper, father, and certified smooth operator sits down with Bunnie to talk growing up in a military family, dad life, and his deeper purpose: spreading joy. He opens up about how his parents' divorce shaped him, and how it influences the way he co-parents today. Wiz shares his approach to staying calm, and how he finds healing through music, hot yoga, MMA, and morning routines. He also talks about the release of Kush & Orange Juice 2, the long-awaited follow-up to the mixtape that defined an era. Plus: his favorite stoner snacks, his dream strip club, and why he never gets tired of performing his hits like "Black and Yellow".

Cybersecurity Today for June 2, 2026. Microsoft has backed away from its hard-line stance against vulnerability researchers after widespread criticism from the security community. The dispute began after independent researcher Nightmare Eclipse published proof-of-concept code for unpatched Microsoft vulnerabilities, triggering a public debate over responsible disclosure, zero-days, and researcher relations. Cybersecurity Today would like to thank Material Security for sponsoring this podcast. Material Security provides faster, more complete detection and response for email, identity, and data threats inside Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. You can contact them at material[dot]security. Carnival Corporation disclosed a social-engineering attack that led to the theft of sensitive personal information affecting nearly six million people. Exposed data includes names, contact information, dates of birth, and government identification details. The ShinyHunters cybercrime group has claimed responsibility and alleges the breach involved even more records. Password manager provider Dashlane temporarily locked some customers out of their accounts after large-scale password-guessing attacks triggered automated security protections. Access was later restored, although some users reported lingering issues. The episode also examines a software supply-chain attack uncovered by Wiz involving 32 Red Hat Cloud Services NPM packages. Attackers compromised a Red Hat employee's GitHub account and inserted Miasma malware designed to steal Google Cloud and Microsoft Azure credentials.

Amy Schwartz, Chief People Officer at Wiz, joined us on The Modern People Leader. We talked about why HR alone can't create a high-performance culture, why relationships and influence matter more than HR systems, and why "picking up the trash" - a leadership philosophy she picked up working in casinos - has stuck with her ever since.---- Sponsor Links:
