A lot of people my age talk fondly about growing up in the 90s. A lot of older friends and relatives talk just as fondly about life in previous decades. This sort of nostalgia is understandable, but it’s also misguided.
Even with the current state of the world, I’m NOT nostalgic for the 90s. And I’m here to make the case that nostalgia for any past decade is empty and incomplete. Enjoy!

When it comes to romantic sub-plots, certain pairings are obvious. But others are a lot less certain. In King of the Hill, one of the most enduring sub-plots involved Bobby and Connie.
From the original series and into the 2025 revival, these two have shared a unique bond over the years. Sometimes, it’s romantic. Sometimes, it’s pure friendship. But overall, what’s their endgame? Are they destined to be?
I honestly don’t know, but I try to break it down in this video. Enjoy!

Marvel’s rebooted Ultimate Universe is very distinct from its predecessor, as well as the mainline 616 universe. But as this world has unfolded, those distinctions have evolved in a very particular way.
In a world where the greatest evil are the institutions and authorities set up by the Maker, what are the heroes of this universe to do? They can’t stop at saving the day.
They can’t stop at defeating the bad guys. They must be revolutionaries in a very particular sense. And that’s something we haven’t gotten in superhero comics in quite some time. Enjoy!

In this video, I make my picks and predictions for the 2025 NFL season. Last year, my predications weren’t as good. But I did get some things right, namely predicting that the Chiefs would make it to the Super Bowl and lose. I was just way off on the Eagles being the one to beat them.
Again, don’t take that to mean my predictions are better than any football fan.
Once again, I’m going to try and predict how the 2025 season will play out. I’ll go division by division. Then, I’ll offer my pick for who I think will win Super Bowl LX. Enjoy!

After 15 years, King of the Hill is back! Hank, Peggy, Bobby, and the rest of the gang have returned in yet another revival of a beloved series. But unlike other revivals, this one works on a level that I found genuinely surprising. It feels different than other efforts, but in the best possible way. That’s certainly were celebrating and exploring. Enjoy!

The future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is very much in flux, even with Avengers: Secret Wars on the horizon. But if the MCU is to continue beyond that movie, it’ll need a new villain.
And I strongly believe the Maker should be that villain.
He’s not just an evil, broken version of Reed Richards. He is the ultimate worst case scenario for any Marvel universe. And he would present a truly unique threat to the MCU for multiple phases. Enjoy!
PS: I started working on this video before Fantastic Four: First Steps came out. And I was too far along when I eventually saw it. So, please keep that in mind.

There’s no need to debate this.
There’s no point in arguing this.
The Naked Gun is the perfect comedy. That’s it. There’s no way to claim otherwise. It is perfect in every conceivable way and deserves to be celebrated as such.

TV dads are known for being stubborn, dense, and foolish. But some do manage to stand out for all the right reasons. They’re still stubborn, but that doesn’t prevent them from having greater depth.
Hank Hill from King of the Hill is a perfect example of this. He is very much defined by how stubborn and uncompromising he is. But he has also been shown to be reasonable. And that helps make him such a better character while also providing for some endearing comedy.

This video is my quick reaction/review for Fantastic Four: First Steps. I tried to limit spoilers, but I had to slip in a few. So, watch accordingly. Enjoy!

I wasn’t planning on binging Ironheart. It was one of those show that didn’t appeal to me at first. But after some good word of mouth, I gave it a chance. And I’m glad I did.
This show surprised me. It wasn’t just good. It made me a Riri Williams supporter for all the right reasons. And I highly recommend everyone else give it a chance, as well. Enjoy!
