So, I Saw ‘Vice’ Today…
Liked it, didn’t love it. If the trailer makes you think it’s gonna be full of laffs, you’ll be disappointed. If you didn’t know what a monster Cheney was, you will after you’ve seen it. Most of the performances were of the ‘caricature’ variety. Yes, Christian Bale effectively inhabited Cheney, but Cheney’s emotional range, to […]

2018 was a year unlike any other, at least when it came to putting together my MVP list.

You all know this wonderful song. The story behind this song, or more specifically, the man behind the song, is equally fascinating. From No Depression: Ric O’Barry, the founder and director of the Dolphin Project, was Neil’s best friend.
