In today’s episode of Bingeworthy, our TV and streaming podcast, co-host Mike DeAngelo launches into one of the best sci-fi series currently on television, “For All Mankind.” The show began as an alternate history version of the 1969 space race in which the Soviet Union beat the United States to the moon, kicking off an increasingly different reality that keeps the space race running towards new goals for decades. Season 3 has seen the race to Mars in the 1990s amidst the continued tensions between the Soviet Union and the United States. The show stars Joel Kinnaman, Shantel VanSanten, Jodi Balfour, Wrenn Schmidt, Krys Marshall, Cynthy Wu, and more.

Cringe comedy is a tough genre to crack. If you go too far, you can make an audience lose interest and not laugh at the absurdity. But if you do it just right, such as in the new film, “I Love My Dad,” you can bring audiences along on a ride that will make them laugh, possibly cry, and definitely feel a bit uncomfortable, but in the best possible way. And in this episode of The Playlist Podcast, I have a recent interview I conducted with actor Patton Oswalt and actor-writer-director James Morosini, from the film, “I Love My Dad,” and we talk about that tightrope walk that is cringe comedy.

In this episode of The Discourse Podcast, we talk to actor Dylan O’Brien, who you may know from his many stand-out roles in MTV’s "Teen Wolf," "The Maze Runner" films," Love and Monsters," and much more. He’s currently out promoting his latest film, “Not Okay,” from Writer/Director Quinn Shephard (“Blame”).

The film stars Zoey Deutch as Dani Sanders—an "unlikeable," fledgling influencer working for an online publication called Depravity in New York City. In a desperate move for attention, Dani decides to pose as a victim of a terrorist attack in Paris, creating a whirlwind of events that spins Dani’s life out of control.

Dylan O’Brien sat down with host Mike DeAngelo to discuss his role in the film as an influencer named “Weed Boi Colin” and putting together the character.

Character-acting icons Wes Studi ("The Last of the Mohicans") and Dale Dickey ("Winter's Bone") join Chance to talk about an on-screen opportunity they've never had before despite their combined 250 screen credits: playing soft-spoken, vulnerable romantic leads. Director Max Walker-Silverman's "A Love Song" makes the most of both actors' skills with weathered naturalism, but Studi and Dickey also have plenty to say about their storied careers, how people talk about their unmistakable faces, and their upcoming TV projects like "Reservation Dogs" (S2) and "A League of Their Own."

The show follows a young chef, Carmen ‘Carmy’ Berzatto (Jeremy Allen White), as he returns home after working at one of the best restaurants in the world to take on saving his family's fledgling Chicago sandwich shop.

Episode 4 of Marvel Studios’ “Ms. Marvel” series was a change of pace for the show. Not only did it bring the world of Pakistan to the MCU, but it also serves as an introduction to director Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy, who is the woman helming both episodes 4 and 5 of the new series. And in this episode of The Playlist Podcast, I got a chance to talk to Obaid-Chinoy about working on the MCU show and including the sights and sounds of her hometown of Karachi.
