I love food, travel, movies, music, pop culture, books and fun interesting stuff. Especially burgers.
Were you "raised on radio?" Here are some classic songs by Queen, Donna Summer, Journey and more that celebrate it: johnrieber.com/2026/01/08/w...

You make an excellent point. And you are right, Blue Moon is a beautiful film with an incredible performance by Ethan Hawke!
"The Donald Trump of table tennis"! That's hilarious!

I thought Sinners, One Battle and Marty Supreme were all overrated. The best movies I saw were all foreign, plus Hamnet and Blue Moon were excellent.

I hear what you're saying about Hollywood, but I also think Hollywood has given up on quality.
