TONY DANZA CHECKS IN
** "As Hollywood is crumbling - what the heck is with this new 'AI' actress..."
Pacifica Host Garland Nixon hanging out with the Hollywood 'Homeless Left.' With connections to Robin Williams, Jack Nicholson, Ed Asner, Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston rebel actor moments, nothing new recycled pilots and cookie cutter formulas, Paul Robeson's 'the artist as revolutionary' - and 'how many masks do I put on to get the job, so you lose that part of the artist...'
** "Youth today are just customers - I think that's what I see..."
Tony Danza Talks Re-Election, Taxi - and 'instead of all the reality baloney that we watch now...' While in this chaotic, coincidental election season offscreen, the role in his latest film as the downwardly mobile dad of an equally alienated son's election do-over, confronting political corruption, excess and lunacy.
Danza also revisits in conversations, his journey as an actor from working class roots through the decades, reinventing himself creatively along the way. And memories of Taxi as cab driver Tony on a sitcom 'so funny, so thought provoking, so emblematic of another time of TV - just so you know how much of a Taxi nut I am...'
** "And then came climate change - actually started a long time ago. And in fact, we find it is almost impossible to even list the vast number of extinctions..."
The Last Extinction: The Real Science Behind The Death Of The Dinosaurs. A Conversation With Princeton Geologist Gerta Keller - a key player in what has been called the nastiest feud in science.
Part ecological detective story, part personal odyssey, Keller probes radical theory reshaping how we understand the planet's past - and with the possibility of a sixth extinction, how we might survive its future...
