When You Shut Up And Focus, You Can Learn A Lot More
I don’t know who I’m voting for in the 2024 Presidential election. It’s still more than a year off, and a lot can change in a year. From my perspective, I pray daily and nightly that it does. But my prayers are far more personal than who winds up winning. As is my rationale for
Barking Up The Right Trees
Go ahead, bring on your jokes. We’ve heard them all, and we can make better ones when given the opportunity to do so. Today will be yet another day of reckoning for the troubled Warner Brothers Discovery executives, and our friend Yosemite Zas and his posse will be doing their best to assuage the concerns
It’s Become A Game of Chicken For Fran. She’s Got The Chops To Win, Right?
We’re a week from Halloween, a month from Thanksgiving, and two months from Christmas, and Fran Drescher’s still fighting. With her SAG-AFTRA negotiating team set to resume discussions later today with the so-called Gang of Four at AMPTP, and since SAG-AFTRA membership is still prohibited from promoting their actual work, the main reason we saw

With Friends Like This…
It’s been a really tough week, and it is in this safe space that I will admit to those of you willing to read this exactly how much so. I own up to the fact that much of the pain and suffering I endure are through a series of poor choices I have made throughout
You Know What Some Bears Do In The Woods. Some Do It On Earnings Calls, Too.
I’d contend one of the more impactful books I’ve read in my life was the 2000 best seller THE TIPPING POINT, which introduced most of the world to the mind and thughts of the brilliant albeit electrocutionally coiffed author Malcolm Gladwell.
