This week on Peanuts and Popcorn, the FIFA World Cup steps into the spotlight, taking over our usual baseball segment as the global tournament delivers its own brand of drama and spectacle.

In Popcorn, we turn to two landmark films. First up is Tom’s pick, Mike Nichols’s provocative and still‑debated Carnal Knowledge (1971). Then we shift to Leo’s choice, the incendiary and influential The Battle of Algiers (1966), a film that continues to echo through political cinema.

Next Show’s Films: • Tom’s Pick: Fat City (1972)• Leo’s Pick: American Gangster (2007)

Schedule Reminder: Peanuts and Popcorn will be taking its annual summer break and returns with fresh‑baked material on July 26th.
