    I Love Boosters (Boots Riley, 2026)

    Psychedelic sci-fi treatise on class, labor, fashion. Superb cast having fun with serious politics.

  2. #music review

    Kacey Musgraves - Middle of Nowhere (Lost Highway, 2026)

    No mainstream artist has captured my heart like Spacey Kacey over eight years. Classic country → disco → cottage core → electro-pop. I ride with it.

  3. #music review

    Kurt Vile - "Chance to Bleed" (Verve Records, 2026)

    Song of the Summer? Breezy melody, chantable chorus, and a great vocal hook:

    "Old time, lo-fi, DIY, Rock & Roll…Nights!"

    A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms (HBO, 2026) - Episodes 1-3

    Chemistry between Ser Duncan the Tall and squire Egg powers this funny, bawdy, medieval buddy sitcom based on G.R.R. Martin's Dunk & Egg novellas.

  6. Sentimental Value (Joachim Trier, 2025)

    Norwegian award season juggernaut. Stellan Skarsgård as the prodigal patriarch - a sensitive and selfish filmmaker returning home after his daughter's mother dies.

    Award season cramming about to begin

  9. Larry's 100 Faves: 2025 Television

    Thirty scripted shows ranked. Stone-cold classics (Andor, Black Mirror) meet mind-bending genre work (Pluribus, The Eternaut).

    Comedies returned to balance reality's darkness.

    Top 3: Pluribus, Andor, The Rehearsal.

  10. Pluribus Episode 8: Charm Offensive AppleTV 2025

    Carol and Zosia's slow-burning love story. Sexual tension until the collective consciousness deduced that Carol needed to get laid.

  11. Oh. What. Fun. (Amazon, 2025)

    Holiday party eggnog left out to curdle. 1970s gender stereotypes, check-collecting stars, and meanness as 'satire' blended together.

  12. Pluribus Episode 7: The Gap (Apple TV+, 2025)

    Meditative and harrowing. Carol is drowning in loneliness, Manousos is on a glass-huffing vision quest. Both nearly break.

  13. Merry Christmas, Ted Cooper (Hallmark, 2025)

    The season's first banger. Atypical male lead, Anchorman-style comedy, and Christmas Ale buzz romance.

    Supporting cast matters: fruitcake of an ensemble.

  14. Oathbreakers: The War of Brothers That Shattered an Empire and Made Medieval Europe by David M. Perry, Matthew Gabriele.

    What does the Carolingian Empire warn us about in 2025?

    Brinkmanship. Family infighting. Egos, power-mad schemers, and an endless supply of nepobabies turn out to be centuries-old tropes.
