noni

Pour ce retour après une longue absence, un épisode peut-être plus improvisé pour se remettre en jambes, dans lequel on se lâche un peu sur des figures assez antipathiques du nanar. On laisse temporairement de côté la bienveillance pour dévserser un peu de bile, de temps en temps ça ne fait pas de mal.

Au programme de cet épisode:

- Rico nous raconte la carrière de Vic Savage, un cinéaste qui a laissé un souvenir détestable à à peu près tout ceux qui l'ont croisé

- Julien nous parle de Noni le fruit de l'espoir, un film remarquable par sa nanardise, par la présence de Robert Hossein et des frères Bogdanoff au casting, et par les six mises en examen auxquelles il a donné lieu

- François évoque la carrière de Jared Leto et plus particulièrement sa prestation au sommet du ridicule dans House of Gucci

- Mathilde revient sur Uwe Boll et notamment Bloodrayne, mais aussi toutes les raisons pour lesquelles on ne l'aime pas.

Très bonne écoute !

As I go tiptoeing through the floral herbs that are now nutrition supplements, I found some interesting ones in the L – M – N – O – P – Q – R – S part of the alphabet.
Not surprisingly, melatonin has attracted a lot of attention and this NIH article looks at some of these studies on its effectiveness to ease insomnia.

Noni comes from a tropical fruit-bearing tree native to southeast Asia. This supplement may be effective as both an antioxidant and possibly as a cancer-fighting substance. The NIH article can be found here.

Peppermint oil is an essential oil that is examined for possible health benefits. This NIH article reviews these studies. 

Over the counter probiotics are sold everywhere.  But are they effective? And if so, for what ailments? This NIH article gets into that.

You may have seen CoenzymeQ10 advertised somewhere. But does it repair muscle cells? This NIH article looks into it.

Quercetin and Vitamin C, when combined, has been shown to kill the SARS coronavirus (among others) in the lab setting.  This NIH article looks into several studies regarding this flavonoid compound. 

Noni Shemenski stops by to discuss how she became a writer, producer, actor, and someone who does stand-up comedy. She founded and is the president of Creatives of Color, a UNC-Chapel Hill organization that promotes diversity and inclusion for students of color with creative passions.

The hosts talk Everything, Everything (2017): the astronaut, the texting, and the Rapunzel parallels, as well as revisiting the unknowns about Maddie's mom.

Question of the Week: Did the film change your perception of Maddy’s mom? How much did she know about what she was doing in the film?
