Did you really think that we’d have @jamiejirak.bsky.social of @littohpod.bsky.social & @phasehero.bsky.social on “Time 2 Party” & not bring up “Grease” somehow? Listen to our discussion about “Peggy Sue Got Married” all month long!

I should’ve gotten a “Cars” tattoo during my drive down Route 66.

Clearly, I spent a good chunk of 2016 at wrestling shows.

I’ve only seen the OG “How To Train Your Dragon” and the live-action remake, so I thought I’d dive into the franchise for funsies.

Turns out on top of the 3 movies, there’s 22 seasons of TV, plus specials and shorts.

As a lover of loving love, I felt qualified to rank some of the best rom-coms of the 2000s.

This was a very hard one to narrow down since there are SO MANY worthy contenders, but overall, I’m happy with how this turned out.

Did your favorites make the list?

If your life is a conversation with the universe, the media you consume is one way it talks back to you.

And sometimes the universe slaps you in the face with a new episode of a show that you love by saying the quiet thing you’ve had in your head for a while out loud.

Everyone is sharing this and for decent reason.
However, PBS is not gone, nor is NPR.
It falls to us to help support them now!

Got 5 dollars left over from dumping Netflix or D+?
Toss that towards PBS Passport or an individual creator you like!

A pitch for a series of convention panels at NYCC, C2E2, SDCC, and beyond:

@bjcolangelo.bsky.social, @jamiejirak.bsky.social, & I gush about #Grease2 with special guests like Drew Barrymore, Brett Goldstein, and eventually Michelle Pfeiffer.

Last year, I said that I’d use Letterboxd more, but fell back into my notes app 3 months later.

Let’s try this again, shall we?

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Truly was not ready to watch “Anna and the Apocalypse” for the first time today. It’s great and I love it, but I wasn’t expecting the wave of emotions.

Since “Ted Lasso” says that December 28 is the sexiest day of Christmas, I’m squeezing in season 2 episode 4 “Carol of the Bells” today.

I never thought I’d see halo-halo on The Food Network, but Chef Dale Talde is out here representing the Philippines on Tournament of Champions!

Sad to hear that #ChainReactionCA is closing. What a legendary venue! Wish I could’ve gone more, but loved seeing AJ Rafael & Jesse Barrera w/ my cousin Nicole back in 2010.
