"Beyond the Gates" Week 27 & 28 Review
The month of September has been a wild one for sure. I myself have been focused on the incoming NFL season and the chaos of the final month of baseball, but Beyond the Gates remained in my mind, especially since August ended with Chelsea held captive by psycho Allison. Of course, as I mentioned in the Week 26 recap, the month of September started off with yet another hiatus--September 1-5 were full of reruns. My goodness.

Welcome to Night Vale: A Love Letter to Community Radio and Cosmic Horror
There's something magical about stumbling onto the perfect piece of media at exactly the right moment in your life. For me, that happened in college when my friend Liz introduced me to a little podcast called Welcome to Night Vale. What started as a curious listen became an obsession that has lasted years, spanning not just the original podcast but an entire universe of novels that have only deepened my appreciation for this wonderfully weird corner of fiction.

When the World Belongs to Geeks
M Mehran On the first day of college, Daniel walked into the cafeteria holding a laptop under his arm. Not just any laptop—a bulky, sticker-covered machine he had rebuilt piece by piece, upgrading parts he could barely afford. He carried it everywhere like someone else might carry a skateboard or guitar. To most students, it looked like a strange accessory. To Daniel, it was his identity.

Haunted Hotel (2025)
Netflix's latest animated venture, "Haunted Hotel," arrives with considerable pedigree behind it—created by Matt Roller (a writer from "Rick and Morty") and executive produced by Dan Harmon himself. Yet despite its impressive creative lineage and promising premise, the series struggles to establish its own distinct identity in an increasingly crowded field of adult animated comedies.

Explaining My Thoughts and Concerns for the Upcoming 51st Season of "Saturday Night Live"
I've known about Saturday Night Live since I was a kid, and it wasn't until my early teens that I started watching on NBC. By then, the known core group wasn't there anymore. People like Adam Sandler, David Spade, and Chris Rock were out of there and doing other things. On a sad note, SNL legends like Chris Farley and Phil Hartman left this world; the latter in the near end of 1997 and the former just five months later.

The Karens Are Coming, The Karens Are Coming
My, oh, my! The following story isn't a surprise to many people. During the 2020 global pandemic, a group of women who harass and falsely accuse others of doing mundane or ordinary things were known as Karens. Fast forward to now, a recent incident at a baseball game and a woman at the center of it is now a Halloween costume. Spirit Halloween is selling it at their stores. It includes a Phillies Jersey, stolen baseball, and bad attitude. Not included: an apology, as it was stated on the package. When you become the butt of all jokes and go viral, chances are a Halloween costume will be made and sold to thousands, even millions of people. Many of you already know the story about the woman I'm about to discuss, but just in case you haven't, here it is.

How Social Media Algorithms Control What You See — And How You Can Take Back Control
Introduction Open your phone right now, and chances are the first thing you’ll do is scroll through social media. Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube are part of our daily lives. But here’s something most people don’t realize: what you see on your feed is not random, and it’s not really your choice either. Behind the scenes, powerful algorithms decide what shows up first, what disappears into the background, and even how long you’ll keep scrolling.

Simpsons Review: "Who Shot Mr. Burns?"
Doesn't seem like it's been 30 years, hasn't it? I remember this like it was yesterday. So the episode starts off... somewhat innocently. The class hamster, named Superdude, sadly passes on. Groundskeeper Willie buries the hamster, while venting about his father's burial, but all of a sudden, Willie inadvertently digs up some gold. Black gold. Texas tea.

A Deep Look at "Hogan's Heroes"
I had actually been sitting on any stories about this for a long while. I had patiently waited for the right time to discuss this classic sitcom, and then, I finally decided bout a month or so ago, I decided that the perfect time would be the anniversary of the show's premiere. The 60th anniversary, to be exact.

Luigi Mangione
Luigi Mangione: The Enduring Fascination with a Shadowy Figure In the vast landscape of organized crime history, certain names resonate with a particular, almost mythical, infamy. One such name is Luigi Mangione. While not as universally recognized as Al Capone or John Gotti, Mangione's story is a compelling chapter in the annals of American crime, a tale that continues to spark curiosity and occasional Luigi Mangione news cycles decades later.
