This week on Something Planet, John J Murray is joined by artist and creative force Mark Castle for a conversation that covers everything from Pride Month and the role of art in modern culture to jury duty, weird news, and the general confusion of living in 2026.

The guys discuss Pride, creativity, painting, and the strange ways artists and audiences interact in the social media age. They also dive into the bizarre story of people reportedly emerging from the sewers of New York City like they're auditioning for a reboot of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and examine the growing trend of "Teen Takeovers" happening across the country.

In Massive Media, they review:

• The Mandalorian and Grogu
• I Love Boosters
• Dicks: The Musical
• And several other movies and shows that caught their attention this week

It's an episode full of art, culture, weird headlines, and the kind of conversations that can only happen when you put a podcaster and a painter in the same room.
