I loved #AKnightOfTheSevenKingdoms Season 1. It was true to the book's spirit (a knight who remembered his vows) and most of the changes enhanced the source material...though I'm still not sure about Westerosi jazz. Can't wait to talk to @macpool.bsky.social and @tokz21.bsky.social about it!

What If... @annoyedgamer.bsky.social, @macpool.bsky.social, and @paulsemel.bsky.social had evil variants?!?

For #BlackHistoryMonth, I wanted to learn more about Afrime Studios, a majority Black-owned #videogame developer in South Carolina. Founders Crandon Dillard and Erik Reynolds told me about the company's origins and shared details on their first game, #Unyverse. youtu.be/FqfaZDvumcc?...

Had a fun chat with @macpool.bsky.social, @tokz21.bsky.social, and @annoyedgamer.bsky.social about #Fallout Season 2. While I enjoyed S1 a tiny bit more, this is still the best videogame-to-TV adaptation ever. Also, Thaddeus rules. 😆😆😆

Amazon continues to knock it out of the park with #Fallout. While I preferred Season 1 a tad more, this is still the best videogame-to-TV adaptation. One slight nitpick: I wish they tightened up some of Season 2's endings instead of Return of the King-style endings shown in the finale.

After finding Pikachu, Gandalf, and Bilbo mentioned in the #EpsteinFiles, I was relieved that some of my childhood heroes are still worthy.

Really enjoyed #WonderMan: the leads were fantastic, the writing was smart, and the world building was excellent. @paulsemel.bsky.social, @macpool.bsky.social, and @annoyedgamer.bsky.social disagreed (it's okay that they're wrong). This show is best suited for comics nerds, not mainstream MCU fans.

Another reason why Brian May is my favorite

When I saw my childhood hero, Dean Takahashi, writing about submissions, I thought he was finally embarking on a career in professional wrestling. It was tremendously disappointing to learn that he will not be a sports entertainer (yet).

I really enjoyed #WonderMan It’s the most unique MCU show — very meta and a little weird (in a great way). Many of the scenes made me miss living in Los Angeles. As the last vestige of the old Marvel regime, I don’t expect to see uniquely creative shows like this for a long time.

There is an overwhelming amount of nerd #television in 2026. The three series I'm looking forward to the most are: 1) Ted Lasso Season 4 2) Lanterns 3) Ahsoka Season 2 Check out the #TV shows @annoyedgamer.bsky.social and Mac are looking forward to and share what's on your must-watch list.

This looks very cool, but I'm having difficulty processing the fact that Game Freak is making a game that's not #pokemon.

I love the song "Against All Odds." I love #KPDH. Ergo, Ejae will have my favorite #SuperBowlCommercial.

here’s my next album cover. we’re like Batman and the Outsiders, but instead of fighting crime, we fight good taste…with the power of pop-punk!!!

What 2026 #movies are you looking forward to? My top three are small-budget films, but of course I enjoy nerdy blockbusters. Thankfully, @paulsemel.bsky.social and @annoyedgamer.bsky.social chose comics and sci-fi movies for us to discuss. Check out our picks here: youtu.be/gAJpXurvhOw?...

Shaffer and Rudd have nothing on @paulsemel.bsky.social. Watch RPadTV to see the best Paul. 😃😃😃

Given how many icons of free improvisation #jazz they've both played with, it's inexplicable how "Duologues 5" is the first collaboration between sax master Ivo Perelman and master trumpeter Wadada Leo Smith. Here's my review of this duets collection. paulsemel.com/ivo-perelman... 🎶🎷🎺

Randomly getting back into #robotech — my favorite cartoon as a kid. Some of it seems silly and dated, but a lot of it holds up & it’s easy to see why it was massively influential to 80s nerds. It also makes me wonder how much the fandom would’ve grown if the franchise wasn’t plagued by legal issues

Super excited to be making my debut Sunday at The Upstairs in downtown LA. Get tix here: www.tixr.com/e/169905 #comedy #standup

I wonder if the current administration will disappear its own guidelines. www.justice.gov/jm/1-16000-d...

Need a laugh? Go watch #IsThisThingOn. The movie is well written, Bradley Cooper has grown as a director, and Will Arnett delivered a shockingly great performance. I've enjoyed his comedic roles, but had no idea he had this level of dramatic chops.

wtf is a professional agitator???

as a card-carrying #homelesscat at #PFChangs, i’m so happy that the word redacted will be used heavily over the next week or so.

My top 3 #movies of 2025 were: 1) Rental Family 2) The Ballad of Wallis Island 3) Sorry, Baby @paulsemel.bsky.social and Mac chose very different movies, and it was fun hearing about what they enjoyed (and what they didn't) in 2025. What were your favorite movies? www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2vO...

I don’t know that I’ve seen someone as happy as #50cent on his Diddy documentary press tour. May we all experience such sheer joy.

My favorite #television shows of 2025 were: 1) Andor 2) The Studio 3) Peacemaker What were your top three of 2025? Check out the TV shows @paulsemel.bsky.social and @revistingmania.bsky.social Carlos liked best here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=0khO...

it’s getting cold in Las Vegas (3 Celsius at night). thinking of getting a hooded cloak for the season. maybe the “Aragorn chic” look will become a thing.

#RentalFamily is a wonderful film that takes a look at what it means to make an authentic human connection. It’s easily one of my three favorite movies of 2025. What did you think of Rental Family???

Once again, Veep was shockingly prescient. It's absolutely hilarious that morons have angrily responded to a joke Polymarket made about #ZohranMamdani requiring New York schools to teach "Arabic" numerals. www.snopes.com/fact-check/m...

#NowYouSeeMeNowYouDont is a fun addition to the #NowYouSeeMe franchise. It refreshes old tricks and middle-aged actors, with new gimmicks and fresh faces. To me, it's Ocean's 11 with magic or Fast & Furious with magic. More thoughts with @tokz21.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZwF...

#NowYouSeeMeNowYouDont was fun and entertaining. The new Horsemen held their own. Ariana Greenblatt’s stock continues to rise. If you want a movie to ‘veg out,’ this is it. More thoughts later today when I join @rpadtv.bsky.social www.youtube.com/live/6ZwFu65...

In lighter news: I’m writing about THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT on Ahch-To Baby matthewfreeman.substack.com/p/empty-empire

Nerding out on #KPopDemonHunters with Mac and his daughter Lexi. This is #RPadTV history! Due to various postponements and cancellations, I've not had a young guest or a female guest on the show. Cheers to Lexi for changing that. 🤩🤩🤩 www.youtube.com/live/1Lmtg1O...

RIP Cleto 😿😿😿 youtube.com/shorts/tb8eQ...

Although I agree with Lina Khan, I still prefer George Carlin's take on the "Illusion of Choice."

Like many boxed sets of classic albums, The Jimi Hendrix Experience's "Bold As Love" — a new boxed set of their second album, "Axis: Bold As Love" — is a mixed bag, but has plenty fans of this band, and this album, will want to keep. Here's the link to my review. paulsemel.com/the-jimi-hen... 🎶🎸🎻🥁💿

alleged couch-f*cker @jd-vance-1.bsky.social seen here being fondled by a women dressed as a leather couch #parody

Watching @kamalaharris.com on @weeklyshowpodcast.bsky.social. I had no idea she was so skilled at dropping F-bombs.

Prior to its release, some critics were saying that #TheRock should get #Oscars consideration for his performance in #TheSmashingMachine. He was fine, but Emily Blunt was the outstanding actor in this movie. I stopped by @revistingmania.bsky.social to discuss. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHKF...

As a massive fan of #TheBoys comics and TV show, I was excited for #GenV Season 2. To my surprise, it exceeded my expectations. It had the action, humor, and storytelling I was expecting, but the character development and pacing were streets ahead. I really hope Amazon gives them a third season!

Dear @jamesgunn.bsky.social -- I loved #Peacemaker Season 2, but my friend Mac wanted more closure for Chris. Will Mac and Chris get their happy ending??? youtube.com/clip/UgkxUHD...

Super excited to give Open AI's #AtlasBrowser a go. Dia has been my main browser for several months and I've grown fond of #ChatGPT -integrated browsers, BUT The Browser Company's future is murky since it's been acquired. Open AI is stable and has the financial resources to make Atlas fantastic.

@filtertron-tele.bsky.social hello there! i saw your username and wondered if one of my guitars became sentient.

I mostly loved #Peacemaker Season 2. The writing was hilarious, the acting was far beyond what I was expecting, and Foxy Shazam rules. That said, the finale was disappointing when it pulled focus from the 11th Street Kids. More thoughts tonight with Paul, Mac, and Carlos. Hope you can hang!

because nothing says "clean protein" like #PopTarts 😆😆😆

Here's a chat with #Acclaim CEO Alex Josef on the challenges of reviving a classic #videogame brand, the games he's publishing over the next year, his goals for the company, and more. www.youtube.com/live/Zt-nCGl...
