The double bounce of an election and the Euros has led to some very successful podcasts achieving even bigger numbers. Many of these podcast hosts are also part of the TV coverage, so how does one format bleed into the other, what can TV learn from podcasts, and should podcasts really be on TV?
'The Apprentice' (a biographical drama of Donald Trump in the 70s & 80s and 'The Last Screenwriter' (a film written by AI) are struggling to find distributors. What are the reasons for this, and what does it say about the wider movie industry?
Lastly, House of Games filmed its Christmas episodes but what how do you create that festive atmosphere in the Summer?

In politics, the podcast revolution shows that there’s an audience for people talking at length about a topic rather than parroting partisan talking points for 3 minutes or less and not listening to one another.

BBC1’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg is the epitome (nadir) of bad political interviewing. The host contrives long, accusatory and typically inane multi-part ambush questions based on the latest piece of journalistic tittle-tattle then interrupts the minute the interviewee opens their mouth. Fifteen minutes after the show, a snippet is launched as the top story on the BBC News website. Politicians are forced to defend themselves in a barrage of soundbites to avoid being misrepresented by the producers’ sensationalist editing. Contrast that with the relaxed style of ITV’s This Morning where the interviewers ask open questions and where the guest is allowed to speak calmly, on a sofa, without interruption and with humour and even some occasional self-deprecation. This is by far the more interesting, engaging and insightful approach to political journalism, and viewing figures reflect this. The BBC’s contrived, confrontational approach serves no useful purpose, satisfies no-one and is now the aberration.

There would be a noticeable slowdown of improvement before improvement stops and we haven't seen that, so we can be pretty confident that there will be significant improvement over the next 3 months.

Christmas specials being filmed in June is interesting. In Australia we have Xmas in July. Because our Xmas falls in summer, we sometimes have classic Xmas food like roast beef & potatoes etc while inside in air-conditioning. Or we may eat something lighter or have a barbecue by the pool instead, because the hot weather doesn't invite a roast dinner. So, our restaurants do something called Christmas in July - they offer roast beef, spuds, sprouts, crackling etc along with some Xmas trappings, in the middle of our winter when such food is very appealing. It's like Xmas comes twice a year.... :)

Best bookings on political shows are back benchers with axe’s to grind who don’t care if they dish the dirt. Diane Abbot and Michael Portillo on “This Week” were a wonder to behold. Every week they would happily dish the dirt on their own party. It was a miracle Diane didn’t get expelled.

@stewartbrodie1720 Ай бұрын

Although I distrust soundbite politicians, I cannot blame them alone for their approach as they understand that their responses will be mercilessly edited by the broadcaster to suit the narrative the broadcaster wants. There are no good, serious politics discussion shows left on mainstream TV, IMHO. I used to enjoy "This Week" (2003-2019), presented by Andrew Neil with Michael Portillo, Diane Abbott/Alan Johnson/some other Labour politician, mainly because the discussion was almost always carried out in a civilised fashion, where the debate consisted of one person speaking for a while and then other people responding to it, challenging it and asking questions - or, shock horror, agreeing with each other! - rather than just trying to shout louder than the speaker in an attempt to drown them out. They covered all the serious topics as well as the less serious . The weekly guest contributors, from all walks of life from journalists to rappers, made a short film and joined a debate on the issues of the day in the same spirit. In retrospect, it was very podcasty.

Genuine q: How do we think Stephen King gets away with using sooo many hundreds and hundreds of song lyrics in his books? He’s obviously very untouchably famous and wealthy, with wealthy publishers-but hasn’t always been. And of course our Ricky is not a nobody 🤗 SK’s been doing it for decades and is always using the absolute most famous lines from smash hits - you can always tell what it is. A good example in US IP law of what we’d call “non-competing format”: the people who buy a Stones album won’t stop doing so because of them being referenced in King’s books; the music sales might even experience a bump. His son Joe Hill does the same-even had a book titled “Heart-Shaped Box.”

@Elwaves2925 Ай бұрын

By "Heart Shaped Box" can I assume you're referencing the Nirvana song. It doesn't really matter anyway, I was just curous. It works as a book title because as you say, it's a non-competing format and the words used are in general use. Even then, you could still call a book you wrote Heart Shaped Box without any issue. The term cannot be copyrighted in that way. It's how there can be multiple different songs called "The Power Of Love." Some things aren't copyrightable if they use general words that are in regular use. I hope that makes some sense from a non-expert point of view. As for the lyrics they use, I have no idea. Maybe it's different in the US to Richard's experience in the UK but I suspect they both get permission for those lyrics.. Why not send it in to that e-mail address as they do like questions related to a previous podcast. 🙂

But surely there is a difference between listening to lots of songs in a certain style and then making up a new one in that style, versus actually just quoting the lyrics of a specific song. I mean, the top ten singles today all have the same four chords and they were written by humans. So if AI used those same four chords is it suddenly a general infringement of copywrite because the AI download the songs but it's ok for the human writers to do that because they just listened to them on the radio?

Please, answer this question. I love and trust you both so much. I also love and am really proud of the BBC. HOWEVER, I worked at an airport in Manchester, which was bought by one of the richest men. He allowed fracking on his land. My stepdaughter joined the protesters and was a witness to police violence. I knew it had happened as did everyone surrounding the camp. The anti-fracking violence never got a mention on the BBC. I was so struck, especially as my family thought I was a tosser supporting Aunti Beeb. Why would they not report if they were genuinely neutral?

@thomasdalton1508 Ай бұрын

Do you mean the protests in 2013/2014? The BBC reported on the accusations of police brutality around those protests. The reporting mostly focused on the official investigation and its findings that there wasn't any evidence of brutality. The lack of evidence is probably why the BBC focused its reporting on the investigation rather than events themselves. The BBC can't report serious accusations without some evidence to support them. Were there videos showing clearly excessive force being used by police?

I watch/listen to a lot of KZfaq because I can focus on what I want to at greater depth. I’ve almost stopped watching traditional tv news and interviews because they only cover sound bites and life is more nuanced than that. The other thing that puts me off is tv journalists interview techniques which is combative for combative sake and this negative approach isn’t pleasant to listen to and isn’t very productive either. The other issue is mainstream tv clearly having agendas on politics - just look at how negative the coverage is for trump and Farage - people don’t like that and will rebel against it. It won’t take long before the way I consume news will be the norm and mainstream news and newspapers will be history.

Says on football broadcasts that broadcasters have a responsibility because they know how much they can impact the teams, then when talking about politics, that Trump claiming a movie portraying sensationalized and unconfirmed stories about him being released right before the elections is election interference, that he is absolutely mad. Which is it? Does entertainment have real world influence or do people take it as entertainment and then move on? Should the movie be released, probably…but if it’s made to negatively impact people’s opinion of Trump using unconfirmed stories and sprinkles in some falsehoods to be more engaging or sensationalizing, maybe it shouldn’t come out before the election. Put it out Dec 1. These big production companies wouldn’t be so scared to put it out if they were confident that it was all true and they did everything above board. It is strange that Hollywood is so left leaning, wanting all these social programs and oversight, going so far as to claim over and over again that if “x” gets elected they are moving to Canada or England or some other “leftist“ country, then they don’t and complain about the taxes in those countries or how it wasn’t feasible business wise. The republicans are supposed to be the ones about deregulating businesses, shrinking the government and lowering taxes, if they are so concerned about taxes and business, wouldn’t they want republicans.

@thomasdalton1508 Ай бұрын

Whether training AI from copyrighted material is a copyright violation is an interesting question and one that the courts will have an interesting time with. Really, though, we need legislatures to make some new laws on the subject and decide democratically whether or not it should be allowed. It is no different to how humans are trained. If you read any advice for aspiring authors, it will always tell them to read a lot. You can't become good at writing without reading what others have written. You can't just plagiarise their content, but you can and must learn from it and be inspired by it. If we are going to have generative AI, it is going to have to be trained in the same way. Therefore, I think legislatures should pass laws explicitly authorising the training of AI from copyrighted materials. There should probably be some kind of license fee involved - just buying one second hand copy of the book and then training an AI that is going to do the work of thousands of humans doesn't seem quite right - but preventing training at all will stunt development. Human authors have a conflict of interest, so can't be allowed to decide whether their content can be used this way.

AI systems don't reproduce training data verbatim, but rather learn patterns and generate new content. This is more akin to how humans learn than to copying. The difference is the speed of generation of output not the substance which can vary in quality just like human ouput.
