Fandom Tribalism

DC or Marvel? You have to pick one!!!  WWE or AEW? You have to pick one!!! Insert the WHYNOTBOTH.gif in here. In the past 15 years the idea of fighting on social media has unfortunately spilled over from politics to your favorite nerdy thing. That band you like? It's not metal enough. Your favorite…

Pentaverate with Mike Myers

Pentaverate on Netflix won't be winning any awards, but who cares. I've enjoyed the Mike Myers shtick since I was a kid and while at times I feel I'm better than juvenile humor - I'm not. I watched the series, 6x 30 min episodes, and I laughed a lot. Puns and bodily functions but also a loose Illum…

My friend got sucked away into a mosh pit from hell, while I got kicked in the head and somehow pressed on. Relive my metalhead youth with this first concert story an…

What's It Like to be an Extra on TV show?

Chicago Fire wanted a doughy white bald dude and they got one! I got to be a Homeland Security Officer in 2015 and it was quite the experience. Three days of freezing my butt off but I got paid, fed, and have some interesting stories to tell about what I call Professional Extras and also how real t…

Let's talk about The Batman

You know I'm a Batman guy but I truly believe in not giving into preconceived ideas about who is acting in a role, who is directing and all of that. Back in the mid 2000's I don't believe people were hyped about heartthrob Heath Ledger cast as the Joker. With all that said, I loved The Batman -- an…
