The Yellowstoners, Mike DeAngelo and Rodrigo Perez, have returned to break down another season of “Yellowstone” like Beth’s bottle over some poor woman’s head. Along the way, they’ll also welcome guests from the show to discuss what makes the series so popular, their favorite characters and moments, and tease what’s to come. For the uninitiated, the top-rated series follows John Dutton (Kevin Costner), a powerful rancher in Montana, as he struggles to keep his ranch and family together by any means necessary — all while being besieged by land developers, surrounding native tribes, and America’s first national park. The highly popular Taylor Sheridan show stars Kevin Costner, Kelly Reilly, Wes Bentley, Luke Grimes, Cole Hauser, Gil Birmingham, and more. On this podcast episode, our hosts throw their ropes around episode three, entitled “Tall Drink of Water,” which premiered yesterday on Paramount Network. Afterward, Jamie Dutton himself, Wes Bentley, sits down to talk about what drew him to “Yellowstone” beyond just the great script.  Remember to check out more stories, news, reviews, interviews, and more at ThePlaylist.net, subscribe to our newsletter, and check out more of our Playlist Podcast interviews here.

Over the past 12 years, Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross have become two of the premier names in the world of film scores. The musical duo shot out of a cannon back in 2010 with the release of “The Social Network,” with a score that would win an Oscar. From there, they released a number of acclaimed scores and even earned another Oscar. So, even though we were already excited about the release of Luca Guadagnino’s “Bones and All,” the idea that Reznor and Ross were working on the score for a romantic drama about two young cannibals in the ‘80s, seemed too good to be true. And in this episode of The Playlist Podcast, I got the chance to speak with Reznor and Ross about their surprising new score and how their sound has evolved over the years.

The cast of a new Hulu drama dives into the complex world of marriage and divorce. They share personal connections to the story and discuss the moral dilemmas faced by the characters. The conversation touches on the challenges of adapting a beloved source material and the intricacies of modern relationships. Listeners will explore themes of intimacy, identity, and the shifting dynamics of adult life. Expect humor, emotional depth, and insights into the characters' flaws as they navigate the murky waters of love and separation.

In the latest episode of The Rogue Ones, our hosts break down their thoughts on Episode 11 of “Andor,” entitled “Daughter of Ferrix,” which dropped on Disney+ today. After the discussion, Andor himself, Diego Luna (“Narcos: Mexico,” “Y Tu mamá también”), joins the podcast to discuss his journeys with the show and its characters. Luna's passion for the show, what it's saying about the world, and working with showrunner, writer, and creator Tony Gilroy is palpable. He clearly is deeply proud of this show and this new perspective they have brought to "Star Wars." Also on this episode, we're joined by actor Duncan Pow (“Black Mirror”), who plays Melshi, a character who also has a significant role in “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story”). But what's interesting is that Pow tells us his Melshi character was a creation of Tony Gilroy's 'Rogue One' reshoots. It seems Gilroy loved the actor enough to also want to include him in 'Andor.'

We're back! The Yellowstoners, Mike DeAngelo and Rodrigo Perez, have returned to break down another season of “Yellowstone” like a brand-new horse at the Dutton Ranch. Along the way, they’ll also welcome guests from the show to talk about what makes the series so popular, talk about their favorite characters and moments, and tease what's to come. On this return podcast episode, our hosts throw their ropes around the first two episodes of season five, which premiered yesterday (Sunday, November 13) on Paramount Network, and afterward, we’re going to have a bit of a rewind with some interviews from this past summer with Beth & Rip themselves, Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser.

There were a lot of questions going into the release of Marvel Studios’ “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.” How would the sequel deal with the sudden passing of Chadwick Boseman, the leader of the franchise? Who is going to suit up as the new Black Panther? And do we really need a villain with pointy ears and winged ankles? Thankfully, Ryan Cooger and his amazing cast have once again delivered a “Black Panther” film that answers all those questions a whole lot more. Like, for real, there’s a lot of movie here. That’s where this episode of The Playlist Podcast comes in.

On program! In the eighth episode of The Rogue Ones, our hosts break down their thoughts on episode ten of "Andor," entitled “One Way Out,” which dropped on Disney+ today. After the discussion, actor Andy Serkis (“Lord of the Rings,” “War for the Planet of the Apes,” “Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” “The Batman”)  joins the podcast to talk about re-joining the Star Wars universe as another character, Kino Loy. During the interview, Andy Serkis detailed his reluctance to rejoin the "Star Wars" universe if only because of the fan theories it would spawn, but he obviously got passed that quickly.  For more 'Andor,' read our review on ThePlaylist.net, and don't forget to listen to all our episodes of the Rogue Ones, where we talk to Tony Gilroy, Adria Adjona, Kyle Soller, Fiona Shaw, and many more.

In the seventh episode of The Rogue Ones, our hosts break down their thoughts on episode nine, entitled “Nobody’s Listening,” which dropped on Disney+ today. After the discussion, director Toby Haynes (“Sherlock,” “Black Mirror,” “Brexit”) joins the podcast to talk about COVID changing the production, working with Andy Serkis, and more. During the interview, Toby Haynes talked about speaking with showrunner Tony Gilroy and producer Sanne Wohlenberg about directing one to three episodes, which completely changed after the pandemic lockdown. The original plan was for Tony Gilroy to direct the first episodes of the series, but COVID made that nearly impossible. Haynes ended up directing many more episodes than he thought he would and broke it all down for us in this engaging new episode of 'The Rogue Ones.'

In today’s episode of The Discourse, host Mike DeAngelo puts on his accordion and talks about The Roku Channel’s latest release, “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story,” with the director Eric Appel (“Son of Zorn,” “Funny or Die Presents…”) and star Daniel Radcliffe (the “Harry Potter” films, “Swiss Army Man,” “Miracle Workers”). The parody film follows Weird Al’s life from weird, polka-obsessed child to world-renowned rockstar to depraved, alcoholic, Madonna-loving Sex God. READ MORE: ‘Weird: The Al Yankovic Story’ Review: Novelty Acts & Cult Heroes Take The Spotlight In Daffy Anti-Biopic [TIFF] During the chat, director Eric Appel discussed why the journey from parody trailer to parody film took nearly a decade, how Daniel Radcliffe prepared for the role, and much more.

If there are two things you probably know about Taran Killam, it’s that he is a really funny guy and he absolutely loves Los Angeles Rams football. Lucky for him, he’s able to use both of those skills and passions for his new show, “The NFL Pile On.” And in this episode of The Playlist Podcast, I was able to talk to Killam about poking fun at the NFL on his new show, his undying LA Rams fandom, and a little bit about that old show he was on, something called “Saturday Night Live” or whatever.
