Rock n’ Roll never died, Elvis Presley is ensuring the genre stays as lively as possible decades after his death in 1977. For years now, especially in the recent ones, we have seen multiple movies about musicians taking over our movie theaters. These films include major actors and actresses taking their own spin on the […]

Is Lip-Syncing Really Bad After All?
Live performances are probably one of the toughest and most demanding parts of a musician’s job. Having to tie together the singing aspect, dancing aspect, visual aspect, and appeal subject it to heavy criticism, and only few artists have been able to master the art of live performance over the years. Some artists have endured […]
Time to Scrub Back In
I will be completely honest, when I heard that the TV show Scrubs was getting rebooted, my first thought was, “Oh no, here we go again”. Honestly, after the truly horrible 9th season, I had a hard time even wanting to talk about the show. I have gone around basically pretending the last season doesn’t […]
Against War to Start a War
Election night, November 2024. We hear the words, “I’m not going to start wars, I’m going to stop wars,” come from the current President Donald J. Trump. Less than two years later, the United States launched strikes on Iran, which officially started a war with Iran. A campaign that was centered around being a ‘peaceful […]
Evolution of Wrestling Games
Wrestling games have come a long way since the initial release of the first WWE wrestling game on console, WWF WrestleMania.

My Nervous System Needs Me
Yoga and meditation, journaling, breathwork–all such simple tasks, but they make all the difference for our wellbeing. In recent months, there has been a shift in the way individuals are taking control of their mental wellbeing and processing emotions and trauma they have experienced. Rather than prioritizing therapies such as psychotherapy, or ‘talk therapy,’ individuals […]
Breaking Out The Brackets
March is officially upon us. Spring is right around the corner, the temperatures no longer keep us cuddled up in bed all day, the snow is finally not piling onto our front yards, and college basketball is about to have its shining moment. March Madness, the NCAA Division 1 single-elimination tournament, will begin on March […]
Megan Thee Stallion, Megan Thee Broadway
Right before Hot Girl Summer comes up, we are going to see Hot Girl Broadway. The Savage herself, Megan Thee Stallion, will be making her Broadway debut this spring. I know we all Wanna Be in attendance, and no need to be a Cry Baby about it at all, because tickets are already available for […]
SpongeBob is Just so Superficial These Days
I was Nickelodeon-kid growing up, so SpongeBob Squarepants was always a special part of my daily routine. To go a day without watching SpongeBob was a rarity for me, and the amount of iconic lines that I can quote from the show may be unhealthy at the age of 23. We still never got to […]
War in Middle East Forces ATP players to Stay
Saturday marked the conclusion of the grueling Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Tournament. The ATP 500 tournament lasted for a week as many of the top players of the circuit competed to hold the trophy and catapult themselves up the ranks. Russian-native Daniil Medvedev came out on top, lifting the trophy in unorthodox fashion as […]
Singing to Fight Fascism
Over this past weekend, people from across the country joined together to celebrate community and resistance against fascism through song. The nationwide protest was organized by Singing Resistance, which is a grassroots movement with over 95 chapters across the US. You have probably seen this group’s work before, even if you didn’t recognize the name. […]
