Trey’s Beacon Jams really were special for a variety of reasons. They brought people together at a time when everyone was separated and were also a master class in production. Was thinking about this recently when I found myself listening to one of the shows. brobible.com/culture/arti...

At some point Corey Feldman stuff started creeping into my Instagram algorithm & it’s been a very weird, confusing time since then. I have no idea what’s going on w/ any video he posts. He name drops like a champ, yells at his all-female band about cleaning up the bus, & drops nuggets like this…

One of my favorite things w/ Always Sunny is when my wife walks in halfway thru an episode & I explain what’s going on. I sound like a crazy person. Dee got LASIK & wanted Dennis to sleep over, but instead the guys had a sleepover & Frank jizzed on a cookie then Artemis brought over a Ouija Board…

One of the craziest things about The Police (besides them not literally killing one another on stage) was that they released their first 3 albums with a 3 year span. Just wild productivity, which tracks because the band consisted of 2 lunatics and one English gentleman.

Back when I put on events in higher ed, we had R.J. Mitte come & speak to students. He was delightful, super down to earth, engaging & gave a great talk. Students were lucky to hear him and I consider myself lucky to have met him.

Trump: "This guy, I call him Mohammed El-Fayad. Some people call him Abdul. I call him Mohammed. Somebody said, 'why?' I said, I don't know. I feel like it."
