Hollywood in Toto with Christian Toto

In the latest Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we hit pause on politics and dive into the magic of moviemaking with veteran producer Matt Baer. His newest project, the heartfelt romantic comedy “Merv,” brings together Zooey Deschanel (Elf) and Charlie Cox (Daredevil) as a freshly split couple navigating the ups and downs of co-parenting their lovable dog, Merv. But when Merv starts acting… different, the pair must figure out whether he’s mourning their breakup or reacting to something deeper.

This week on The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we break down the cultural and political fallout from Jimmy Kimmel’s one-week suspension — and the controversial narrative surrounding it. In this episode, we explore how Kimmel’s misinformation, and the media response that followed, may be fueling real-world consequences across the country. Why do late-night hosts keep pushing divisive narratives, and what does it mean for a nation already struggling to trust its institutions? We unpack the shocking new poll that illustrates why misinformation from major media voices truly matters.

Then, we shift to an emotional and deeply personal conver...

In the newest episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we dive deep into the culture-war clash surrounding Sydney Sweeney, her unapologetically all-American American Eagle jeans campaign, and why conservatives who rage against the “woke mind virus” still hesitate to openly support her—let alone show up for her new boxing drama, "Christy." The reasons are predictable, frustrating, and say a lot about today’s fractured pop-culture landscape.

Next, filmmaker Joseph Holmes joins the show to discuss his ambitious new indie film, Jim Vs. The Future. This smart, emotional multiverse drama blends science-fiction storytelling with Holmes’ personal reflections on faith...

This week on the Hollywood in Toto Podcast, host Christian Toto dives into two disturbing stories shaking up the cultural landscape.

Christian also revisits Jimmy Kimmel’s one-week suspension, revealing how it impacted his audience, his reputation, and the broader public perception of late-night comedy. Is late-night TV still relevant—or has it become an echo chamber for prog...

This week on The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we bring you not one but two powerhouse interviews that explore original filmmaking from very different corners of the industry.

D’Souza pulls back the curtain on his creative process, how he consistently captures the cultural zeitgeist, and why The Dragon’s Pr...

In this powerful episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, host Christian Toto chats with filmmaker Spencer Folmar, a bold voice in the world of faith-based cinema. Known for Generational Sins and Shooting Heroin, Folmar brings a raw, unfiltered approach to storytelling that reflects the messiness of real life — and the complex, imperfect nature of faith.

Folmar opens up about his personal journey into filmmaking, the inspiration behind his deeply emotional stories, and why he believes Christian films shouldn't shy away from life’s darker edges. At the heart of the conversation is the Hard Faith Film Festival, a gr...

On this episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we dive into Jimmy Kimmel’s embarrassing return to ABC and his cringeworthy attempt at an apology.

We also sit down with Wasim No’mani, breakout star of YouTube’s original faith-based comedy series The Promised Land—a sharp, hilarious take on The Office with a Biblical twist. Wasim opens up about the show's unique creative process, what inspired the project, and shares emotio...

We examine Kirk’s remarkable life, his lasting legacy, and the deeply personal impact his death had on Toto’s own young sons.

This isn’t just political — it’s personal.

But while many mourn, two Hollywood legends responded with disturbing, disgraceful reactions to Kirk’s murder. We name names and expose what their comments reveal about the toxic anti...

This week on The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we dive into the cultural chaos fueled by late-night TV — and Stephen Colbert is front and center. Once a platform for laughs and lighthearted satire, late-night has become a tool of political division, and Colbert’s angry, partisan monologues are leading the charge. We break down how Colbert and his peers have helped polarize the country — and why they may not even realize the damage they’ve done.

Later, we’re joined by director Nim Shapira to discuss his powerful new documentary, Torn. The film explores the emotional and political firestorm...

In this episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, your go-to conservative look at entertainment, we dive into the surprising new romantic comedy The Elephant in the Room – a bold film that tackles America's cultural divide head-on.

In this revealing episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we uncover the ugly truth behind Howard Stern's career crisis — a stunning fall from grace for the self-proclaimed "King of All Media." Once a fearless voice of shock jock radio, Stern is now teetering on the edge of being canceled, abandoned by the very culture he once mocked. So what went wrong? Why did Stern lose his mojo, his edge, and his legacy? We break down the critical missteps that led to his decline — and how he could’ve taken a very different path.

Then, we dive into bold...

In this hard-hitting episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we dive into the latest cultural flashpoint: the Left’s outrage over Sydney Sweeney's American Eagle jeans commercial.

We break down the wildly different responses from The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and Gutfeld!, revealing how even Colbert may have found his limit with progressive overreach.

Next, host Christian Toto welcomes Paul Hutchinson, philanthropist, entrepreneur, and author of The Sound of Freedom. Hutchinson discusses his powerful new book, The Sound of Freedom: True Stor...

The conversation also explores how McDonough has stayed true to his Christian faith in Hollywood, including his firm stance on turning down romantic sc...

Host Christian Toto welcomes indie filmmakers Max Tzannes and David San Miguel, the creative minds behind the new horror-comedy Found Footage: The Making of the Patterson Project. The duo dives deep into the chaotic and creative world of low-budget filmmaking, sharing behind-the-scenes stories, unexpected challenges, and how cutting corners on set often led to surprisingly better results. You'll hear about the genre-blending magic that combines laughs and frights, plus the surprising wisdom from a veteran co-star that helped elevate the final product.

On the latest episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, host Christian Toto tackles the escalating rhetoric on The View and asks a critical question—has the daytime talk show crossed a dangerous line? Once considered light political entertainment, the show’s hard-Left politics, led by Whoopi Goldberg and company, now reflect a growing trend of incendiary speech amidst rising political violence on the Left. Is this just free speech, or is it reckless commentary? And how should free speech purists respond when celebrity voices like Goldberg’s veer into deranged territory?

Plus, we go beyond Hollywood with an emo...

Get ready for one of the most jaw-dropping trigger warnings yet — George Orwell’s 1984 has been given a woke reimagining, and the results are as cringe-worthy as they are unbelievable. In this episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, host Christian Toto dives into the latest assault on literary classics by hyper-sensitive academia and cultural gatekeepers. We break down the embarrassing comments made for the book's 75th anniversary and what this means for free speech, satire, and the enduring power of dystopian fiction.

But that’s not all — we’re joined by writer, illustrator, and Babylon Bee alum Ethan Nico...

Jake Tapper's new book, "Original Sin," is rocking the country. The CNN journalist bravely shares the shocking details of President Joe Biden's decline ... months after he withdrew from the 2024 election. It's the cover-up of the century, and Tapper had a supporting role (even if he denies it). This bonus episode asks the biggest question surrounding the book - could it make the jup to the big screen? Will Hollywood put aside its progressive groupthink to tell a story that demands to be told?

In this hard-hitting episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, host Christian Toto exposes how once-revered celebrities are undermining their legacies in the name of political virtue signaling. 🎸 Case in point: Bruce Springsteen. Known as The Boss and once a symbol of blue-collar America, Springsteen has taken a sharp turn, bashing the very country—and fans—that built his career. Now he's criticizing America and Donald Trump during international concerts. Here’s why that message is not only tone-deaf but damaging.

In this explosive episode of The Hollywood in Toto Podcast, we dissect late-night host Jimmy Kimmel’s shocking interview with Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker—an exchange that veers beyond comedy and into the realm of fat shaming and political hypocrisy. Was it just tasteless humor, or a calculated move to push a deeper leftist agenda? We break down what Kimmel’s approach really says about mainstream media bias, and why this same media helped cover up Joe Biden’s cognitive decline during the 2024 election cycle.

In this hard-hitting episode, we unpack the growing hypocrisy at the heart of celebrity activism. A major Broadway star recently issued a highly publicized plea for tolerance—but does her rhetoric hold up? We explore how her statements clash with her actions, and how they reflect a broader pattern of Hollywood elites fueling the very Cancel Culture they claim to condemn. From silencing dissent to enforcing ideological conformity, celebrities have become key players in the war on free speech.

One rare exception? Comedian Bill Maher, who dared to reach across the aisle in today’s polarized climate—and was im...

The stars of Fantastic Four: First Steps are making waves — and not just on screen. Two of the film’s key leads are proudly proclaiming this reboot as a bold, progressive departure from past superhero fare. But is this "not your father’s Fantastic Four" approach a box office risk? We break down their eyebrow-raising comments and compare them to another star who famously dissed the source material — and paid the price. Could First Steps follow the same doomed path? 🔥

In this episode, we dive into the complex and contradictory approach to free speech taken by rock legend Neil Young. Known for defending free expression in the 2000s, Young’s more recent actions—specifically his attempt to silence Joe Rogan over controversial views on COVID-19—have raised eyebrows. We unpack how his latest comments reflect a growing partisan stance rather than a commitment to open debate. Is Neil Young’s approach to free speech evolving into something less about the exchange of ideas and more about enforcing a specific narrative? We explore this paradox in depth.
