What’s Up With Tyra?

About this episode

The episode discusses the youth of the Founding Fathers, the impact of trauma in media, and personal anecdotes from Jon and Tracy.

The Founding Fathers were shockingly young, James Taylor's theft makes Tracy's blood boil, and America's Next Top Model reveals how we normalize trauma. Plus: a Jon’s near-death spiral and why social contracts must evolve. 🎥 Youtube: https://youtu.be/yPb5jCK3cyI 🍎Apple: https://tinyurl.com/OnApplePods 🎙️Spotify: https://t.ly/wTez3 Insta: @marriedtomoviespod TikTok: @marriedtomovies Facebook: http://tinyurl.com/M2MPOD #MarriedToMovies, #jonrussellcring, #tracynicholecring, #setlife, #filmmaking, #director, #indiefilm, #KenBurns #GeorgeWashington #ThomasJefferson #AlexanderHamilton #BetsyRoss #BenFranklin #JamesTaylor #CaroleKing #TyraBanks #WimWenders #JeffreyEpstein #PrinceAndrew #StephenColbert #RobertAltman #ElliottGould #RaymondChandler #PhilipMarlowe #RalphBakshi #JonnyGreenwood #Radiohead, #AmericasNextTopModel #TheAmericanRevolution #TheLongGoodbye #Chinatown #Fletch #MASH #CBSSundayMorning #LordOfTheRings #TheHobbit #HeavyMetal #Wizards #FireAndIce #Marshmallow #Goosebumps #Tapestry, #FortTiconderoga #Saratoga #Albany #Berlin #Gaza #Tennessee #Malibu, #Epstein, #EpsteinFiles #SocialContract #FoundingFathers #ContinentalCongress #PBS #YouveGotAFriend #FireAndRain #JMail…
