Review: The Conjuring: The Last Rites is Let Down by a Rushed Ending.

I hope Chris puts me over when he shows this article to Paul and Tony.

Got to break out my lucha knowledge once again.

Joey Valence & Brae are not just super talented musicians, they're an extremely fun interview. We talk WAY too much about Cheesecake Factory in this one.

i have caged in the flowers after this springs rabbit plague and heres the only beebalm with any will to live: puny and pathetic with a shit-ass bloom. thankfully for next season i have killed and eaten all the nearby rabbits, weird face tentacles and all

Sea.Hear.Now 2025 has announced their lineup for Late Night Shows ... but with a few intriguing additions this year.

So stoked to have interviewed AJ Wolfe about her new book. It's one of the easiest interviews I've done in 25 years, and it's a fascinating look into the Disney Adult phenomenon.

The word "dude" is often associated with the '80s and '90s. But its origin is rooted much, much farther back in American history and it took a long and winding road to reach the coast of California.

Trevor does a good job here talking about the issue. I've spent the morning thinking about how I'd want to write about Brock's return, but I currently don't have a lot of new things to say beyond pointing out that it was predictable that Brock would return to WWE.
