Episode Synopsis
FIFA’s schedule just arrived — and your sleep plan didn’t stand a chance. We unpack the timezone chaos, “Playoff Qualifier” panic, and sponsor‑name sleight‑of‑hand as fans recalibrate flights, naps, and dinner plans for the World Cup schedule. Tune in for laughs, survival tips, and the true first‑world trauma of kickoff times. Keywords: World Cup schedule, FIFA, time zones, kickoff times.
Are Hollywood’s game‑to‑film boom and franchise fever killing creativity? In this episode of The Capitalist’s Fever Dream we trace nostalgia‑mining, franchise filmmaking, and how casting and corporate math have flattened storytelling into merchandise and sequels. Expect sharp analysis of Minecraft, Zelda, and the industrial logic driving adaptations — and why culture pays the price. Keywords: game adaptations, Hollywood, franchise filmmaking, nostalgia.
Heroes or band‑aids? We profile CNN’s Top 5 “heroes” — from a teen river‑cleaner to food rescuers and animal savers — and ask whether applause masks systemic failures that made their work necessary. A thoughtful take on community impact, nonprofit prizes, and what real solutions would look like. Keywords: CNN Heroes, community heroes, social impact, nonprofit.
This is urgent: stop picking wild mushrooms — California’s amatoxin outbreak has hospitalized 21 people and killed one adult. We explain the danger of death caps and destroying angels, early symptoms that mislead, and lifesaving advice (plus the poison control number). Listen now for expert warnings and what to do if exposure happens. Keywords: mushroom poisoning, amatoxin, death cap, California parks, poison control.
When a cultural landmark becomes a political PR machine, who loses? We investigate the Kennedy Center’s $257M renovation, donor‑first programming, board shakeups, and the quiet erosion of artist‑led missions. Tune in for the inside story on arts funding, political influence, and what’s being renovated out of public culture. Keywords: Kennedy Center, arts funding, political influence, cultural institutions.
