The Music of Athens: Places You’ve Forgotten
ATHENS, GA – A musical monolith with a small-town feel. Athens has musical history that dates over a century, with a reputation right below that of Atlanta and Nashville. However, many Athens residents have no idea how huge their hometown truly is. Athens’ music hasn’t always centered around the Georgia Theater, around the legendary 40… Read More The Music of Athens: Places You’ve Forgotten

Reviewing a Mandarin Orange (Yes, you read that correctly.)
As a child, I never found another sensation quite like the satisfaction of perfectly peeling a Mandarin orange. Its totality made me feel oddly accomplished, neat, and mature. I wasn’t making a mess like all the other kids; I could shed my lunchtime snack’s skin like a pro and dispose of it in one long,… Read More Reviewing a Mandarin Orange (Yes, you read that correctly.)
REVIEW: Hilda, S1e3
A cartoon has never mixed reality and fantasy so seamlessly. Hilda, a Netflix original cartoon, is a prime example of the innocent, childish wonder we often miss and something that is scarce in many modern children’s shows. It trades fancy graphics for masterful storytelling, 3D showmanship for characterization that is a refreshing departure from the… Read More REVIEW: Hilda, S1e3

REVIEW: Seether, Poison the Parish Tour
I attended Seether’s “Poison the Parish” tour on Sept. 29 at the Tabernacle, an old church-turned-music-venue, in Atlanta, Georgia. Despite a few hiccups, it was nothing short of a divine experience. The show began at 7:30, despite announcements of 6:30. We never got an explanation as to the delay, but artists being behind schedule isn’t… Read More REVIEW: Seether, Poison the Parish Tour
REVIEW: Cats I’ve Known (BOOK)
Pets are some of the most important beings throughout our lives. We may not have the most vivid memories with our favorite toys as a child, or that weird neighbor kid our mom made us play share them with. We may not even remember something as important as our first day of elementary, middle or… Read More REVIEW: Cats I’ve Known (BOOK)
REVIEW: Atypical, S2e1+2
Atypical, a Netflix original, released its second season in 2018 and continued right from where the last season left off. I must admit, I was nervous for this one – shows and movies tend to either soar or completely crash and burn when the “sequel” is released. Thankfully, season two of Atypical, at least episodes one and two, is greatly exceeding my expectations.… Read More REVIEW: Atypical, S2e1+2
