  • The Best and Worst Movies of 2025... So Far

    The Best and Worst Movies of 2025... So Far
    Jul 6 2025
    Speaking with host Lou Pate on 1210 WPHT, KOP shares his opinions on movies released so far in 2025. After KOP watched 62 movies last year and almost 30 this year , he highly recommends "F1," especially for the theater experience, praising its immersive racing scenes and Brad Pitt's performance and "Ballerina" from the John Wick universe.

    Conversely, the guest identifies "The Weekend" as arguably the worst movie of the year, criticizing its amateur acting and poor plot and a strong disapproval for "Bride Hard," calling its premise of Rebel Wilson as a CIA agent saving a wedding from mercenaries ridiculous.

    The conversation touches on a "Jurassic Park" rebirth and the final "Mission Impossible" movie, "Dead Reckoning, Part Two"and how that the "Mission Impossible" sequels can be watched independently, as they provide refreshers on Ethan Hunt's career.

    KOP also expresses anticipation for the John Madden biopic starring Nicolas Cage. The discussion concludes with speculation about the next James Bond.

  • Seeking A Radio Career? Separating Signal from Noise (ep.391)

    Seeking A Radio Career? Separating Signal from Noise (ep.391)
    Jul 4 2025
    Thinking about radio? "Sound Advice: A Guide to Navigating Careers in the Modern and Future Radio Digital Media Landscape" touts the industry's digital expansion and the demand for adaptable, multi-skilled pros in AI, data, and podcasts.

    That's a start, but for aspiring talent, this sanitized view leaves you unprepared for reality. While the book correctly points out the necessity of becoming "multiskilled", it barely scratches the surface of what that truly entails for aspiring talent. You won't just be a "Music Presenter who blend song selection with personality" or a "Talk Show Host who facilitate fascinating conversations".

    The expectation in today's lean media environment is that you become a one-person content machine – a virtual Swiss Army knife. This demands not only audio mastery but also proficiency in video, social media, basic graphic design, and web analytics.

    While "Sound Advice" lists "Multimedia Content Development" or "Video Producer/Editor" as separate roles, new entrants often find these are their responsibilities—creating compelling social content and engaging listeners in real-time, all while prepping for your next on-air segment.

    Beyond skills, "Sound Advice" ignores the industry's human element. It highlights "creative cores" and "dedicated teams of technical professionals" but omits the cynicism infecting co-workers—a byproduct of tight budgets, long hours, and constant pressure. Radio's corporate climate can be fiercely competitive, even toxic.

    While "challenges" are mentioned, detailed discussions of interpersonal dynamics, job insecurity, or demanding management are missing. Aspiring talent needs to be mentally prepared not just for technical demands, but for the emotional resilience required to navigate an environment where passion is constantly tested by commercial pressures and internal politics.

  • 20 Years of Podcasting: How Apple Revolutionized the Medium (ep.390)

    20 Years of Podcasting: How Apple Revolutionized the Medium (ep.390)
    Jun 27 2025
    In a landmark celebration, Apple is marking the 20th anniversary of adding podcasts to iTunes, a pivotal moment that legitimized and propelled the once-niche medium into a global phenomenon. To commemorate this milestone, the company has launched a dedicated webpage titled "20 Years, 20 Podcasts We Love," highlighting influential shows that have shaped the industry over the past two decades. This anniversary serves as a reminder of Apple's profound and enduring legacy in the world of audio entertainment.The History and Legacy of Podcasting Before AppleBefore the iPod and iTunes became synonymous with podcasting, the groundwork for the medium was laid by a community of tech enthusiasts and early adopters. The term "podcast" itself is a portmanteau of "iPod" and "broadcast," a name coined by journalist Ben Hammersley in a 2004 article. The concept relied on RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feeds, which allowed users to subscribe to and automatically download audio files. Early podcasts were often homemade, featuring a wide range of topics from technology to personal journals, but they lacked a centralized platform for discovery and distribution, making them difficult for the average user to find and access.Apple's Game-Changing InterventionApple's entry into the podcasting world in June 2005 with iTunes 4.9 was the catalyst for its mainstream explosion. This single move solved the biggest hurdle for podcasting: accessibility. By integrating podcasting directly into iTunes, a platform already used by millions of people to manage their digital music libraries, Apple made it incredibly easy for users to find, subscribe to, and download podcasts to their iPods. The initial directory launched with 3,000 shows, providing a central hub that legitimized the medium and made it a recognized form of entertainment.Steve Jobs, in a press release at the time, famously stated, "Podcasting is the next generation of radio, and users can now subscribe to over 3,000 free Podcasts and have each new episode automatically delivered over the Internet to their computer and iPod." This statement was not just a marketing slogan; it was a vision that Apple would go on to realize.Apple's Enduring Impact on the Podcast EcosystemApple's contribution goes far beyond simply providing a directory. Its influence is evident in several key areas: * Standardization and Discovery: The iTunes directory created a de facto standard for podcast distribution. Creators simply needed to submit their RSS feed to Apple, and their show would be discoverable to a massive audience. This open, decentralized model fostered a diverse and independent ecosystem, empowering a wide range of voices and creators. * The Apple Podcasts App: In 2012, Apple released a standalone Apple Podcasts app, further solidifying the platform's place as the primary destination for listeners. This dedicated app, pre-installed on every iPhone since 2014, made podcasts a core part of the mobile experience. * Democratization of Content Creation: By providing a free and open platform for distribution, Apple leveled the playing field for content creators. Anyone with a microphone and a computer could potentially reach a global audience, leading to the rise of independent creators who could build their own communities and even generate revenue through advertising and sponsorships. * Evolution and Growth: The anniversary page highlights this evolution, showcasing a curated list of influential podcasts from different eras, including early pioneers like This American Life and Love and Radio to more recent hits like Huberman Lab and The Rest Is History. This demonstrates how the medium has evolved from simple audio diaries to sophisticated narrative storytelling, in-depth journalism, and specialized content for every niche. * Continued Innovation: Even two decades later, Apple is still investing in the platform. The company is introducing new features like a wider range of playback speeds and an "Enhance Dialogue" feature to improve the listener experience, reaffirming its commitment to the medium.The LegacyWhile other platforms and apps have emerged, Apple's initial push and continued stewardship of the open podcasting ecosystem are undeniable. The company didn't just popularize the term "podcast"—it built the infrastructure that allowed it to flourish. From a handful of shows in 2005 to millions today, podcasting has become a multi-billion dollar industry and a fundamental part of the modern media landscape, and Apple's iTunes (now Apple Podcasts) played the most critical role in making that happen.Contact KOP for professional podcast production, imaging, and web design services at http://www.kingofpodcasts.comSupport KOP by subscribing to his YouTube channel and search for King Of PodcastsFollow KOP on Twitter or X and TikTok @kingofpodcastsListen to KOP’s other programs, Podcasters Row… and the Wrestling is Real Wrestling Podcast and The Broadcasters Podcast.Buy KOP a ...
