'What Should I Watch Now?!': First Edition
We've all been there: the show hole takes us into the darkest part of our brains and we think about all of the wrong that we've ever done in life and what the future holds and if the spider we killed was going back to its family before we squashed it.

Top 6 Musicals and Songs
Not everyone can sing great, nor can they act or perform. But whether or not you are a musical theater geek or a choral nerd, these songs are some of the best songs that non-Broadway fans are sure to love. Some musicals on this list might be off-Broadway now or they may be still performing on Broadway. The music from these musicals may also be some of the best works written by their composers.

Why The Valleyfolk Will Be the Biggest Thing on YouTube in 2018
It's often hard for a new channel to stick out on YouTube. YouTube's algorithm tends to cater to their bigger channels, so it's difficult for a new up and coming channel to find their footing. The Valleyfolk managed to buck that trend in a big way. Within the first 24 hours of their new channel, The Valleyfolk have over ninety-three thousand subscribers, made it to #4 on YouTube's trending page, and have almost 3,500 backers on their Patreon.

Opening Night in Theatre
Nothing quite explains how you feel when a show you've been working on is about to do it's first performance, live, in front of an audience. And here I am trying to write a blog post about it... oh well, it's too late now to go back. We are both way to far along in the post to give up now.

15 Binge-Worthy Anime To Watch This Weekend!
I’ve been watching anime for a few years now, and I’ve come to notice that I binge-watch A LOT. So is this normal? Yes, it is. However, let's first define this behavior that we do on the weekend: binge-watching is when you watch a series for a long time span, usually of a single series. Netflix, the provider of binge-watching, defines this marathon-watching when a person watches between two to six episodes of the same show in one sitting. So don’t make any plans this weekend, because here are 15 of the most binge-worthy anime out there.
