Alex Heller-Nicholas @horrornonna.com wrote the book on women in horror. It's called '1000 Women in Horror' 💅 And now it's a documentary on Shudder! This week, she and @jorcru.bsky.social are diving deep into the horror depths, with Lucky McKee's MAY as a guide. maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Buddy Joe was a true delight! Of course he picked this Burt Reynolds classic as his feeling seen choice, and it was an amazing talk with a guy whose been in this business since his dad set up a shop for horse stunts way back in the Western golden age. Listen and waaaaatch!!

A true legend of stunts, Buddy Joe Hooker, tells @jorcru.bsky.social all about how he relates to both Hooper and Ski in HOOPER (a movie that might just be about his own relationship with its director, Hal Needham). #stunts #filmsky maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

PICS THAT GO FUCKING HARD

So cool to talk with #OnePiece S2's own Camrus Johnson this week. His role of Mr. 5 represents a change from hero (Batwing on 'Batwoman') to villain. He's talking with Jordan about being seen by superheroes: Static Shock (from the 2000s TV series) and Black Panther. maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

!!!!!!

This week on the show, we’re going back to the Hotel Earle, this time with the star of HONEY BUNCH (now on Shudder) and writer/director/star of DEAD LOVER (in theaters this month), Grace Glowicki! #filmsky maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Don’t forget there is a truly raucous viewing guide to Indian action movies on The Action Desk right now. Lift your midweek up in positively explosion fashion with recs from a globe-spanning collection of film critics! www.rsclfilms.com/news/rscl-pr...

BIG NEWS! We have a brand new YouTube channel, and we're kicking things off over there with an interview we're so excited about: Matthew Lillard! #filmsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zsJ...

Sasha Calle has been cast in Mike Flanagan's ‘EXORCIST’ movie. Also starring Scarlett Johansson, Jacobi Jupe, Diane Lane, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Laurence Fishburne. (Source: Deadline)

I cannot stress enough how beautiful this conversation is with Walter. His film writing comes from such a personal place, and I was so looking forward to that same level of closeness to the material in a feeling seen chat. It was everything I’ve hoped!

When @mangiotto.bsky.social sent us his character pick for this week's episode of Feeling Seen, he asked "...too obvious?" Always a good sign. Fans of the cinema arts, you gotta hear the singular film critic Walter Chaw and @jorcru.bsky.social talk about BARTON FINK. maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Fans of action cinema (or, frankly, fans of @jorcru.bsky.social's writing!): virtually run, don't virtually walk, to read and subscribe to the new movie newsletter RSCL! Here's a peek at one of our favorite stories from the launch... www.rsclfilms.com/news/charlie...

Unbelievable things happening at the @maximumfun.org studios

If you haven't listened to @gianmarcosoresi.bsky.social talk about AMADEUS (and feeling seen by all-timer antihero Salieri, as played by F. Murray Abraham), now's your chance! We brought this one out of the vault this week -- it's one of our favorites. maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

We made a special episode about the damage being done to public mental health here in Minnesota. Even if you don't live here, it's a bracing look at the dangerous position we're in, what we stand to lose, and what our community is doing about it.

We are going back to our ROOTS w/ this @feelingseen.bsky.social because I am talking to THE Shauna Shipman (and now The Rose Landry)… Sophie Nelisse. We have an impromptu therapy session talking about her connection with INSIDE OUT 2 and anguished inner monologues podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

I'm so excited to work with Chiwetel again! And more to come, very soon... deadline.com/2026/02/the-...

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again. #Pinks #ProudBlue

This absolute bastard. And not for nothing, complete and total loser. Desperately trying to make up for a life of being a nerd by becoming whatever vapid celebrity CEO this is now. What a waste of resources.

Sophie Nélisse (YELLOWJACKETS, HEATED RIVALRY, & WHISTLE, now in theaters) has a few thoughts about eMoTiOnS! That's why she's brought INSIDE OUT 2 to the show today, for a great conversation about facing anxiety and the unknowable inner monologues all around us! maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Today we've got CHRIS STUCKMANN (writer/director of SHELBY OAKS and longtime YouTube movie guy) talking about one of the few on-screen representations of the Jehovah's Witness world he left behind: 2022's YOU CAN LIVE FOREVER. And it's a queer teen romance, you guys! maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Latest feeling seen is with filmmaker Chris Stuckmann, who brought a movie for discussion I’d never heard of: YOU CAN LIVE FOREVER, about a gay teen girl struggling in the Jehovah Witness community. We talk about living for movies and for yourself and it’s lovely! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

We better get leaks AS SOON as this wraps!

For Jolenta Greenberg, the first time through high school felt almost as awkward as Jerri Blank's return there in STRANGERS WITH CANDY. Except Amy Sedaris made it all seem hilariously...bearable. All this, plus RHONY reminiscences and the scoop on self-help books! maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

It is a hallowed day on Feeling Seen. For we are discussing… STRANGERS WITH CANDY! Find out how Jolenta Greenberg connects with THE Jerri Blank! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

If there is one Oscar nominee I will beg you to see, it’s the feature doc MR. NOBODY AGAINST PUTIN. It’s told from the perspective of a school teacher in a small Ural Mountains town as he, the schools documentarian, captures the tightening authoritarian grip following Russia’s invasion into Ukraine.

Very exciting to talk about Kristen Stewart's new-to-theaters directorial debut with @roxanegay.bsky.social and @alainmartin.bsky.social. We're talking THE CHRONOLOGY OF WATER, plus a discussion of memoir movies we love and ones we'd like to see get made. #filmsky maximumfun.org/episodes/max...

SUPPORT INDEPENDENT CINEMA! is a really rallying cry for us at Feeling Seen, and OBEX is as indie as things get. Saw it at last years Sundance and finally got to chat with Albert Birney about his inspirations and to my great delight: Marcel the Shell!!

Looking for some creative inspiration? @albertbirney.bsky.social’s stunningly creative, super handmade film OBEX is in theaters now, & he told @jorcru.bsky.social about filmmaking with friends for the joy of it. All through the lens of MARCEL THE SHELL WITH SHOES ON! maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Yes, please believe that Jordan asked Tim Blake Nelson about his teen high school adaptation of Othello, 2001’s ‘O,’ starring Mekhi Phifer, Julia Stiles, and Josh Hartnett. And believe that he told her all about how he came to direct it — and how it almost didn’t get released!

Extremely grateful to the extraordinary Tim Blake Nelson for sitting down with @jorcru.bsky.social to talk about his career as an actor, director, & writer, from Juilliard (where he was studying when he first saw Jim Jarmusch’s DOWN BY LAW) to THE TESTAMENT OF ANN LEE, & beyond! #filmsky

We're still getting settled but wanted to give you a look at our new studio. Thanks to everyone who participated in our moving sale (closes today, so last chance: maximumfun.org/movingday)! We're so excited to have this nice space and as you can hear, hosts who record here are pumped about it, too!

A rewatch is in order

Marching orders: 1) watch HAG (tubitv.com/movies/10004...) 2) watch HOW TO BE SINGLE 3) marvel at the surprising points of comparison 4) Listen to HAG's director, Sam Wineman, on this week's FEELING SEEN! (step 4 can also become step 1, we won't tell) maximumfun.org/episodes/fee... #filmsky

It is a most beautiful day on @feelingseen.bsky.social because I have my dear friend Sam Wineman talking about both his new movie HAG, and also about the movie that is core to his being: HOW TO BE SINGLE podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Badge told us a lot of great stories in this episode: about being in a table read with Meryl Streep in his 20s. About working at a Pizza Hut in Utah. And this might be the best of them all: how he almost got fired from the movie SHAME before filming even started. #filmsky youtu.be/3R4Ya5h_wv8?...

Continuing into our 200s with major star-power…JAMES BADGE DALE gives us an acting masterclass packed-full of amazing stories, and the inspiration he felt watching the free performances in Scorsese’s MEAN STREETS. You gotta listen! #filmsky maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

Team I need you to drop everyone and listen to THE James Badge Dale on @feelingseen.bsky.social right now! An actor’s actor. A talent. A storyteller. A cool ass guy. Talking to him about MEAN STREETS and KING IVORY and so much more! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Thank you for your help, Felipe! And for your honorary toilet paper dispensing. For folks who want to achieve this status (well, close to it--all the toilet stuff got claimed so fast, so you won't be on that level), there are still a few items left to be sponsored: maxfunstore.com/collections/...

Looking for a great episode of FEELING SEEN to listen to? There are now 200 to choose from! Like this delightful & insightful conversation with amazing actor Shea Whigham, (which has come up often ever since)? He felt seen by Robert Duvall in TENDER MERCIES. #filmsky maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

In continuing celebration of 200 episodes...have you heard our very first episode, with @emilystjams.bsky.social, from 2021? Not only does it set the tone for the whole show going forward, but it was nominated for an LA Press Club award! bit.ly/4iJK8hW

Reminder: Thomasin McKenzie was on Feeling Seen and she’s an absolute gem podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

In honor of 200 episodes, we're sharing some of our favorites. Since guest Thomasin McKenzie, shouted it out on Ep 200, why not give a listen to @jorcru and her interview BFF Allison Williams talking about Mary Poppins and Maria Von Trapp? youtu.be/WFwlwRSYxMo?...

BIG day for us! Thomasin McKenzie is our guest for our **200th Episode!!** 🎈🍾🎊 Thomasin is feeling seen by Julie Delpy in BEFORE SUNRISE & feeling intimidated by what she called "the best interview she's ever heard," Jordan's Allison Williams ep from July 😊❤️ maximumfun.org/episodes/fee...

I cannot stress enough the level of DELIGHT in our 200th episode of @feelingseen.bsky.social where Thomasin McKenzie tells me about her heart’s desire to be miniature sized, her obsession with mini figures, and also her love of BEFORE SUNSET! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

Today we reached the 200 episode threshold of FEELING SEEN! And what better way to mark the occasion than our latest interview, which features Thomasin McKenzie calling the Allison Williams episode the best interview she’s ever heard. Thomasin, A TALENT WHO KNOWS podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...
