Brother and sister bring the #caturday love.

I did not intentionally choose a sports movie as counter-programming, it was just in the queue. www.imdb.com/title/tt0051...

This is the “two kinds of TV watchers” divide I’m getting behind today.

I bet Wile E Coyote has a really pretentious Substack. #TCMParty #BugsBunny

I want the firm of Elwes and Patinkin to represent me in all my trademark litigations.

If you share images of what to do during a weather-related emergency, share that advice with blind and low-vision users, too. Add alt text. The alt text should include the text in the image, rather than just a vague description, so people aren't missing out on vital information.

IT'S FINALLY HERE!!!! So excited to share this show with you all. I am so grateful for the support and encouragement from so many people to get this off the ground 🚀 If you need a spot of light-heartedness in your day, this is the show for you! ✨ Please have a listen and please share!

Hello new follows! I shall attempt sparkling content.

will also add - yes, this is my personal crusade - that turning podcasts into videos implicitly asks women to once again make more effort than men, as the bar for "camera-ready" for one gender is obviously higher than for the other

Rewatching one of my two favorite Christmas movies. And hey, we did a podcast in 2022. www.theincomparable.com/lts/66/

Merry Christmas to all whose giant brisket is done 7 hours early. Just me?

Merry Christmas from the girls in Research. #FilmSky #TCMParty

Merry Christmas to everyone who's trying to appreciate what a declining loved one can still do rather than agonize over what they can't.

My Christmas brisket is now under tight security.

Finally, an advent calendar I can embrace.

Joe Ely has died at 78. A singer-songwriter at the forefront of alt-country, he earned the nickname Lord of the Highway thanks to tireless touring.

I will be logging off Bluesky for awhile. The volume and acope of RIPs has been breathtaking.

What's the fate of TCM if/when Netflix acquires Warner Bros.? DEADLINE reported Fri that TCM would be spun off w/ the other WBD cable networks in Q3 2026. (screen cap below) Then they edited their story to state that Netflix would own TCM. Are they right? In short, I don't think we know. #FilmSky

This brings me happiness.

I watch one TV channel. It’s not ESPN, so not subsidized by everyone else’s subscriptions. And it doesn’t have ads, fascinating in a modern landscape. Only an intense group cares about it. And every six months someone tries to set it on fire to squeeze an extra two bits out of the ashes.

i do not "also like" random podcast episodes being dropped in feeds to which I subscribe. I get It’s a dynamic insertion thing, but it's no more welcone than those 4 minutes of pre-roll ads.

“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas” Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.

The Plex movie randomizer wants me to doze in front of a middling title from the 40s (T-Men). A productive afternoon, I’d say.

The best story I heard at Thanksgiving dinner involves a leopard gecko and LinkedIn.

POPCORN DISABILITIES is out tomorrow and the wonderful Kelly McClure at @salon.com published an excerpt you can read now. www.salon.com/2025/11/26/e...

Watching Possessed (the 1931 one) while #TCMParty enjoys Queen Bee. As long as there’s some Crawford on your screen, you’re on the right track.

KYUK is the only public radio station in remote Alaska that regularly broadcasts in the Yugtun language, providing a crucial lifeline to Indigenous communities in the area. After Congress slashed its budget, the station isn't sure how it'll survive. The latest from our friends at @revealnews.org:

Joined the MacBreak Weekly dudes this week to talk about Apple succession speculation, legal cases, 3D-printed watch cases (those last two are DIFFERENT) and so much more. twit.tv/mbw/999 Thanks for having me, @twit.tv

Absolutely real! I used to do a tech podcast, butt I do still have a show for you.., @liontowershield.theincomparable.com

I feel as though I ate all of Houston during our @texasstandard.bsky.social roadtrip. Yeah, we brought home a pie from House of Pies. What’s it to ya?

Criterion Channel has re-added the Pioneers of African American Cinema collection. 16 features + 13 shorts/fragments curated by Charles Musser and Jacqueline Stewart. Oscar Micheaux's BODY AND SOUL (1925) w/ Paul Robeson + a haunting original score by DJ Spooky is a good place to start. #FilmSky

[Publicity for THE FLY (1958), supposedly found by David J. Schow in the Motion Picture Herald. Can this be real?]

We’ve recently lost the iconic Diane Keaton. Agents of SMOOCH wanted to do a special mission to honour her. We chose The First Wives Club with Goldie Hawn, Bette Midler and some amazing power suits. With @shelly.brisbin.net, Heather Berberet, and Micki Maynard. www.theincomparable.com/smooch/136/

Hello, Houston! Your @texasstandard.bsky.social pals want to know: What's the most exciting thing about Houston food right now? Great places, trends under- or overrated places. Send us a voice memo: texasstandard.org/talk And you might hear yourself on the air tomorrow, when we'll be in HTX.

When I pack for a work trip, I do so as if there will be barely any modern conveniences. Because a city larger than my own will surely not have Internet or AC power in its air conditioned buildings! And I better bring snacks, just in case food is unavailable.

Attention Houston folks! @texasstandard.bsky.social is broadcasting from Houston Public Media on Friday! We've got Houston stories and guests planned, and I have a Talk of Texas question? What's the most exciting thing about Houston food right now? Drop a voice memo at texasstandard.org/talk.

I reported on the cancellation of Digital Equity Act grants for @texasstandard.bsky.social www.texasstandard.org/stories/digi...

Digging my new LG TV’s accessibility features. Speech is on by default when you set up for the first time, and the default color contrast is great! Speech is a little fast to start, but that can be sorted out. #A11Y

Here’s a good reminder of the history of special education in the US. And a reminder for me why I was able to go to a public high school. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

Sportsball adjacent. It’s as close as I get.

Of course it's an episode about a witch movie. It's Halloween! Have a listen as @shelly.brisbin.net and I discuss The Witches of Eastwick (1987) with our ever-delightful Director @annettew.bsky.social, and find out what we mean by "The Sexy Part" 😉 #AgentsOfSmooch on @theincomparable.com
