What is the overall premise of Weirdhouse Cinema’s Mortal Kombat episode?
This is an iHeart podcast. Guaranteed human. Hi, this is Kylie Brakeman. Angela Geritana. Jeremy Colhane. Patrick McDonald. And we're the hosts of the Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists podcast. The improvised character comedy podcast where each week a new panel of artists discuss their craft. Join us for a panel of Eurovision participants. And we do a little Halloween sometimes. Does the Pope dress up? He winks on Halloween. It's right up next to the microphone. I hear you can almost hear the eyelashes hit each other. You've never seen Italy so quiet as when the Pope gets up to wink on Halloween.
How do the hosts describe the original 1995 Mortal Kombat video‑game mechanics and story?
Listen to Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists every Thursday on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. So like by age 11 or so, at least 70% have a phone. I'm Dr. Joy, and this is Therapy for Black Girls. We spend our surviving middle school run getting into what's happening inside your kid's brain, the group chats, and their friendships, and what you can do about it. Your child is not doing this on purpose. That's the kind of perspective we've been pulling from the psychologists and psychiatrists who study this for a living. Listen to Therapy for Black Girls on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Self-care September is your reminder to slow down, check in with yourself, get off your phone, and maybe ask, why am I like this?
I'm Gemma Speck, host of the Psychology of Your 20s podcast, and this month we're helping you make sense of the person that you are becoming. From setting boundaries and navigating friendships, to understanding anxiety, confidence, relationships, and attachment. Sometimes our biggest decisions, without us even realizing it, aren't driven by what we truly want, but by what will prevent us from feeling lonely or being alone. Listen to The Psychology of Your 20s on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
I have 32 new photos of 9-11 from a camera found in the Rubble of the World Trade Center, never published until today. My name is John Walczak, and my new film, 32 Frames, A 9-11 Mystery, is now available to stream. For more information, go to 32frames.com.
What is the basic plot outline of the 1995 Mortal Kombat film?
And if you haven't listened to my podcast, Missing on 9-11, hey, that's where this all started. Listen to Missing on 9-11 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite shows.
Welcome to Decoding Women's Health. I'm Dr. Elizabeth Poynter, Chair of Women's Health and Gynecology at the Adria Health Institute in New York City. I'll be talking to top researchers and clinicians and bringing vital information about midlife women's health directly to you.
A
hundred percent of women
go through menopause. Even if it's natural, why should we suffer through it?

Hey, welcome to Weird House Cinema Rewind. This is Rob Lamb, and I have a fun one here for you today. This one originally published 8-9-2024. This is our look, or this is part one of our look at Mortal Kombat from 1995. This is a film that we, yes, had two episodes worth of thoughts about. So this is an ideal week for us to re-air this one because this is a buffer week for us. We are not traveling.
Which characters are highlighted and how are they portrayed in the movie?
We are not off from school and so forth. That usually happens halfway through October. This year, we decided, hey, let's go ahead and take that week off in September, and then we can just plow ahead through October, put out more October Halloween content. So this week is going to be a week of, I think, some high-quality reruns, and it looks like we'll probably have an omnibus episode of The Monster Fact on Wednesday. So please enjoy Mortal Kombat Part 1, and you can tune in Friday for the second half.
Welcome to Stuff to Blow Your Mind, a production of iHeartRadio.
