Onward – A Movie Review
We love both Disney and Pixar in this family, so we intended to see Onward in the theater. Unfortunately, the outbreak had other plans for everyone. Amazingly, Disney rushed Onward to video-on-demand weeks after its theatrical release. Until this moment in time, such a thing was unprecedented. Perhaps even more surprising, Disney announced that Onward…

East Of West (Volume 9) – A Book Review
Author Jonathan Hickman continues to captivate with his East of West series from Image Comics. In this word, our idea of the United States has been divided up into many factions, and they all await the end of the world. The Four Horseman roam freely, and it’s only a matter of time. East of West…

They Got Me On This April Fool’s Day

Netflix’s Tiger King – A Few (Introductory) Thoughts
I’ve seen a LOT online about a documentary on Netflix called Tiger King. Even so, when I would notice the “poster” on Netflix, I always thought it looked ridiculous. It appeared as some sort of a mockumentary–I assumed it couldn’t be real. However, I listen to a radio program called The Dan LeBatard Show with…

The Mandalorian – A Few Thoughts
This is probably my favorite show of all time, so there is no excuse for just now writing about it months after it debuted. By the way, yes, I’m a Star Wars fanatic. And, no, I’m not capable of being objective when it comes to Star Wars. However, even with that being said, this is…

Have Older Siblings Teach Younger Siblings
Do you have siblings in the house? Have the older sibling teach the younger sibling something at which they excel. It gives the older child a daily sense of purpose and it gives the younger sibling the attention they are probably craving.
