Podbit · 2 Bears, 1 Cave with Tom Segura & Bert Kreischer
Sir Ben Kingsley arrived at the Operation Finale table read with a leather-bound script decorated with swastikas — the Buddhist peace symbol, but still — and performed every single Adolf Eichmann line completely from memory. He turned the pages with everyone else but never looked down once. The six actors who kidnap Eichmann in the film sat in stunned silence.

The pivot comes when Tom recognizes the Argentina film as Operation Finale and the conversation immediately deepens. Bert attempts to reconstruct what he knows about the Eichmann trial — getting some details wrong (the skeptics of the Holocaust were largely outside Israel, not within it) but correctly identifying the trial's world-historical significance as a moment of documented proof. [1] — Nick Kroll "Sir Ben Kingsley arrived at the Operation Finale table read with a leather-bound script decorated with swastikas — the Buddhist peace symbo…" 1:39:25 Nick describes how the Mossad decided to bring back Eichmann as the singular symbolic trial while consciously choosing not to also pursue Mengele in Brazil. Tom, who had read The House on Garibaldi Street, adds the detail that Eichmann's own son exposed his father's identity by bragging to his girlfriend. The segment culminates in Nick's Ben Kingsley story: Kingsley arrived at the table read with a leather-bound script decorated with a swastika (which Nick clarifies is the Buddhist peace symbol that predates the Nazi appropriation), and delivered every single word of his Adolf Eichmann dialogue entirely from memory — turning the pages with the group but never looking down once. The cast was stunned. The episode closes with a brief debate about Holocaust-themed animated films and a final plug for Mating Season.
Sir Ben Kingsley arrived at the Operation Finale table read completely memorized, turning pages with the group but never looking down, while his script was covered with swastikas.
The trial of Adolf Eichmann in Israel was pivotal in providing documented proof of the Holocaust to much of the world.
The entire plot of the original Terminator film depends on the phone book. The Terminator looks up 'Sarah Connor,' finds multiple listings, and starts killing them one by one. No phone book, no movie.
Rico has already appeared in Den of Thieves, Den of Thieves 2, and Roadhouse alongside Jake Gyllenhaal and Dave Bautista. Jason Statham is developing a specific role for him. Working alongside elite actors taught Rico something about himself: the emotional suppression that makes him a great fighter is exactly the material that makes great acting — if he learns to stop pushing it away.
Trump joked that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. personally ran over, butchered, and delivered the evening's beef tenderloin to the dinner — then topped it with a punchline about RFK wanting to serve raccoon roadkill as an appetizer. The crowd's laughter at jokes targeting his own administration signaled a rare night of good-natured self-deprecation from Trump.
Jimmy Tatro is playing the nemesis-son to Will Ferrell's washed-up golfer in The Hawk, his fifth project with Ferrell and Ferrell's first lead TV series. The real highlight: Molly Shannon, playing his on-screen mother, drove off set on the last day with Chief Keef blasting from her subwoofers.
Alan Ritchson walked into a Thor audition with his sides still in his hand, half-assed it on a spotlight-lit stage before two silhouettes in a dark theater, and bombed so completely that the casting director broke protocol to call his team. The feedback? He had no craft. That one sentence sent him to acting school — and changed the trajectory of everything.
Alan Ritchson walked out of his Titans audition so sure he'd booked the lead that he called his wife and told her he was going to buy a Tesla. She said he hadn't booked it. He went and bought the car anyway. His instincts were right — he was offered the role — just not the one he wanted.
Reacher drew 56 million global viewers in a single week of Season 2. Alan Ritchson points out what makes it unusual: unlike ensemble shows, almost all of that visibility lands on one person. It's an anthology with a rotating cast built around a single titular character — and the scale of it is something even he calls unprecedented.
Motor City has no spoken dialogue. Every major leading man in Hollywood — Jake Gyllenhaal, Hugh Jackman, Gerard Butler, Adrian Brody — was attached at some point. It was greenlit nine times. The concept was simple: Greg Silverman wanted a film everyone in the world could watch with the exact same experience, regardless of language. Alan Ritchson read the script and called it a masterpiece.
Working with Arnold Schwarzenegger showed Alan Ritchson what 100% recognition looks like. People feel Schwarzenegger before they see him — like a meteor approaching. Alan's wife wants a strict no-photos policy around family. Arnold stops for everyone. The contrast was a master class in how gratitude should manifest when fame is inescapable.
