“Jack doesn’t necessarily have a movie background, but he has a broad pop culture background,” she said.

There isn’t 100 percent overlap in their coverage - Moviepilot focuses mostly on film and television, and while Cracked does cover pop culture, it’s usually through an idiosyncratic, humorous lens - but both are deeply rooted in geek culture, so Crossing the Streams would cover topics ranging from film to television to comic books, but from an insider’s point of view. Grauso met with Jack O’Brien, Cracked’s editor-in-chief, and Daniel O’Brien, one of the magazine’s lead writers, and though the group discussed a variety of projects, they quickly settled on teaming up for a podcast. You have a great site and it overlaps with what we do, and we should talk because we have ideas for things we could collaborate on.’” “Their PR guy reached out and said, ‘Hey, we heard you’re going to be at Comikaze. Alisha Grauso, Moviepilot’s editor-in-chief, first met the Cracked team when she was attending Stan Lee’s Comikaze Expo in the fall. Not so with Crossing the Streams, the new pop culture podcast launched earlier this year as a collaboration between film news site Moviepilot and the humor magazine Cracked.

If you’ve never taken the time to think about how society grooms cult leaders like Manson, or if you just like fascinating stories of Hollywood’s dark underbelly, You Must Remember Manson is a can’t-miss series.Usually when two corporate entities enter into some kind of partnership you can be certain a small army of lawyers is involved in the process, each side guaranteeing that no ambiguity exists as to who owes what deliverables and share in costs.

The series also explores the lives of the many Hollywood players who were directly or indirectly linked to the Manson Family, from Doris Day, whose son became Manson’s best path to success, to cult filmmaker Kenneth Anger, who collaborated with Manson Family member Bobby Beausoleil for his outsider short film “Lucifer Rising.” The 12-episode series revisits the making of Manson and homes in on the turbulent two years leading up to the infamous, brutal murder of seven people, including actress Sharon Tate, by members of the Manson Family. Now, in the wake of Manson’s death, the Panoply podcast network has released the Manson season of You Must Remember This as its own podcast: You Must Remember Manson. The podcast series, written and hosted by Karina Longworth, delved into sides of Manson that rarely get discussed today: his early life, his dreams of Hollywood stardom, his ability to manipulate his way into favor with Hollywood’s elite - usually offering the bodies of his female followers in exchange for the notice. In fact, for a heady time between 19, Manson was something of a Hollywood insider, primed to coast his way to music industry success. If that pairing of concept and subject seems surprising, it’s because Manson’s personal connections to Hollywood, its influence on him, and his manipulation of its culture have been largely written out of his legacy as a fringe megalomaniacal cult leader. In 2015, the podcast You Must Remember This, which explores “the secret and/or forgotten histories of Hollywood’s first century,” dedicated an entire season to Manson, who died on Sunday. One of the best cultural examinations of the late Charles Manson in recent memory just became its own series.
