Actor Decides To Produce Captain Planet

Movies need a producer, and Captain Planet has an unlikely one. You’ll be surprised when you find out which actor has jumped into the role, but rest assured, he knows what he’s doing!

The U.N. Has A New Ambassador

In a liberating and empowering step forward, the U.N. gained an icon that became even more of a role model for females everywhere, even more than before. This is pretty great news and Radnor can’t wait to share it with you!

It’s Not Meant To Be Scary, But…..

Tune into today’s episode to hear about a new children’s book that’s anything but ordinary. Penned by an author that does horror right, get all the info on his new change of pace that still has us a little squirmy. (The story seems innocent enough, but there’s just something about that cover….)

 

In addition to these great stories, we’ll be talking about who’s been nabbed to play young Lando Calrissian in the new Hans Solo film, find out some Deadpool 2 casting info, learn some unique plans about Jessica Jones Season 2, and hear some ‘Indiana Jones 5’ stuff that has us a bit disappointed.
It’s all in this episode!
