Podcasts......you should listen to.
Two best friends talk about life in general, pop culture, things from way back when and everything else that intrigues you. If The Chris Moyles Show started at 6 am, then it'd be an hour of just talking before heading into a song at 7 am after. Here's one example of a typical episode. Look and pick which topic is your favorite.
They even have a Tiktok section too. Like this.

More money, more problems. That seems to be the motto of Netflix's brand new competition series, in which one contestant is saddled with a $1 million prize as the other 11 players fight to hunt them down and claim it for themselves.
The series, with the working title "Million Dollar Secret," will be hosted by Peter Serafinowicz, the British comedian and actor whose credits include "Guardians of the Galaxy," "Shaun of the Dead," "John Wick: Chapter 2" and "Spy."
Here's how the competition works, in Netflix's own words: "The million-dollar prize is won by one of 12 players right at the start of the first episode. Now, the others will hunt them down – eliminate the millionaire and the money moves to someone new. When should they strike? Too soon and they become the target; too late and they may never get the money. Meanwhile, the millionaire can try to get rid of the cash if the heat becomes too much. This is a game of strategy and alliances, where predators can become prey in the blink of an eye."
The series will consist of eight 45-minute episodes. It's produced by Wheelhouse U.K. and Spoke Studios ("Love & WWE," "Buying Beverly Hills"). Charles Wachter serves as showrunner and executive produces alongside Glenn Hugill, Will Nothacker, Russ Friedman, Joe Coleman and Pam Healey.
The cast of "Million Dollar Secret" has yet to be announced.
Serafinowicz has had a prolific career in Hollywood, creating and starring in "Look Around You" and his own sketch comedy series "The Peter Serafinowicz Show," as well as landing roles in "Parks and Recreation," "The Gentlemen" and "Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace," in which he voiced Darth Maul. Serafinowicz has also lent his voice to the "Sing" animated movies from Illumination, "South Park," "Rick and Morty," "The Simpsons," "Bob's Burgers," "American Dad!" and "Archer."

Mark Maxwell Smith was at the expo and is thinking of reviving of this.......
Breaking news ahead of National Game Show Day from the inaugural Quiz Show Expo is that the beloved 80's and 90's hit family game show 'Talk About', created by multi-Emmy-nominated game show phenom, Mark Maxwell-Smith, is readying a worldwide comeback. Maxwell-Smith announces a new Board Game Partner and plans for a TV Show relaunch. While details of a new Talk About TV Game Show Reboot are still under wraps, Maxwell-Smith has signed a comprehensive licensing agreement with Toyetic Brands, founded by longtime Toy Industry and Tabletop Game innovator, Dan Rowen, to develop an extensive line of board games based on the Talk About property. The Talk About deal, which includes board games, card games and mobile game apps, was negotiated by global licensing agent Genna Rosenberg from GennComm ImaGENNation.
Talk About creator Mark Maxwell-Smith is an internationally recognized game show Writer, Creator, Producer, and multiple Emmy Nominee. Maxwell-Smith's career began as a Production Assistant on the classic game show, Truth Or Consequences hosted by Bob Barker, and evolved to him creating, selling and producing over a dozen television game show formats, including Talk About, Mouth Trap, Chain Letters, Equal Partners, Humdingers, Majority Rules, Knockout, and Now You Know. He has also contributed to the development of formats and content for series like The Joker's Wild, Name That Tune, Let's Make A Deal, Cross-Wits, Tic-Tac-Dough, Beat The Clock and his beloved first show, Truth Or Consequences, too.
Dan Rowen from Toyetic Brands said, "Classic reboots resonate with consumers, and this dynamic communication game will bring fresh themes, exciting energy, and attract a whole new fanbase! It's so much fun working with a legend like Mark Maxwell-Smith on the Talk About franchise, and hopefully more of his games in the future." Rowen, who has been producing toys and games for 25 years, indicated that Toyetic Brands will unveil the party game series under its new upcoming game brand which will specialize in bringing fun, playful concepts of this genre to retailer shelves and into consumer's hands. The board game version will be available in 2025 and the company has indicated that there will be some unique aspects to how it is launched.
Mark Maxwell-Smith said, "What makes Talk About so special is its ability to go beyond facts and instead, offer insight into the minds and hearts of the game's players. I know that Dan and the team at Toyetic Brands have the vision to adapt the gameplay for different audiences of today in fresh and exciting ways." In North America, Talk About aired on the CBC, USA Network, and in domestic syndication via The Fox Station Group. International versions of the show aired in almost one dozen countries, including Ireland, The United Kingdom, and Japan. Talk About continues to air on YouTube and launched on Buzzr beginning in 2022. Pressman Toys did the original game, which was an important part of the TV Game Show's DNA.

One of the more surprising elements of The CW's fall schedule unveiled last month was that there was no room for Penn & Teller: Fool Us – one of the longest-running anchors of the network's unscripted slate.
That's changed now as the network has renewed the show for Season 11.
It is one of a handful of renewals at the network; The CW also picked up All American for a seventh season and dated season four of religious drama The Chosen.
The magic competition show is centered around the legendary duo, who invite aspiring magicians are invited to perform their best trick to try and fool them. Anyone who succeeds wins the right to perform with Penn & Teller in their show at the Rio Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas. Penn & Teller see the trick only once and have to immediately try to work it out.
Brad Schwartz, President of Entertainment, The CW Network recently told Deadline that the show is a "crazy consistent performer". Season 11 will likely launch in early 2025.
