It's Dodgers Night in LA! Mark Thompson is in studio co-hosting with Tim Conway Jr. Alex Stone is on the phone to talk about Tilly Norwood, the A.I. Hollywood actress causing a stir in Tinseltown. She looks incredibly real, but unlike any other aspiring actress with an Instagram account and Facebook page, "Tilly" is totally computer generated – and Hollywood agents are interested. It's also causing fresh issues for the actors' union, SAG-AFTRA. Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny will be performing at the Super Bowl 60 Halftime Show next year, and some people aren't happy about that. Santa Clara's Levi's Stadium in the Bay Area will be hosting the Super Bowl LX next year, and some locals don't want it – including the mayor.
Oscar-nominated screenwriter Billy Ray talks about AI creeping further into Hollywood. Spoiler alert, he is not a fan of cinematic artificial intelligence. He refers to Tilly Norwood as an “it” and not as an actress. Billy Ray believes AI hurts Hollywood and takes away middleclass jobs from behind-the-scenes movie workers, like gaffers, workaday actors and camera operators, arguing that LA is a blue-collar town. Will AI become a powerful creative ally or is it a threat to their craft and livelihoods? Ray argues for strong protections, insisting that “the public has a right to know when they're watching something written by a human being.” The Dodgers have taken a 1:0 lead at Dodgers Stadium! Hurricane Humberto is drawing near Bermuda, thus sparing the U.S. East Coast. A nursing student at a carwash in Reseda was mugged for $4,000 while vacuuming her car, but she has a GoFundMe.

The Atlanta Braves and Brian Snitker today announced that the long-time manager will transition to an advisory role within the organization for the 2026 season, and will be inducted into the Atlanta Braves Hall of Fame prior to a game next year. Snitker, 69, guided the Braves to 811 wins, six NL East division crowns and seven postseason berths over parts of 10 seasons in his managerial tenure, and led the club to the fourth World Series title in franchise history in 2021. He was a four-time finalist for NL Manager of the Year in his nine full seasons at the helm and won the award in 2018. He exits his managerial post with the third-most wins by any skipper in the history of the franchise. Snitker completed his 49th season in the Braves organization in 2025, and his ninth full campaign as the Braves manager. He took over on an interim basis on May 17, 2016, before being named Atlanta’s permanent manager on October 11, 2016. The native of Macon, IL, joined the organization as a non-drafted free agent in 1977. Snitker compiled an 811-668 (.548) record at the major league level, and his 811 total wins trail just Hall of Famers Bobby Cox (2,149) and Frank Selee (1,004) in franchise annals. Dating to his managerial debut, Snitker’s 811 victories were the second most by any skipper in baseball, behind just Dave Roberts of the Los Angeles Dodgers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

“Why would a man with a dream life and a booming business empire want to grind it out in a Major League dugout?”In this compelling and insider-packed episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive into a surprising twist in the MLB world: the Los Angeles Angels are reportedly eyeing three former players as potential managers—including two Rollertown Beerworks investors and close friends of the show, Michael Young and Torii Hunter.The crew breaks down the buzz around the Angels' managerial vacancy, sparked by a tweet from MLB insider Bob Nightengale. While Michael Young seems unlikely to leave his idyllic SoCal lifestyle, Torii Hunter's name carries real weight—and real intrigue.“Torii Hunter is one of the greatest leaders I've ever seen in my life. He controls a room. Everyone who knows him loves him, respects him, and follows him.” — SkinFrom watching the Rangers clinch the World Series with Torii at Rollertown, to discussing his deep ties with the Angels and his role as honorary chairman of the upcoming Rollertown Open golf tournament, the hosts paint a vivid picture of a man who could absolutely lead a clubhouse—if he's willing to walk away from his already incredible life.
