"Will you welcome to the stage, the one, the only... Magic Mike!" In which we talk about all of the things Magic Mike gets right with the fabulous Luna Luck.

"If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough." In which we celebrate the arrival of a new Jackass movie by going deep on Jackass Forever (2022) with Niko Stratis!
I said as much to our assigned community manager (I have been one myself and I know it's a thankless job but...):
"Having been making content in one way or another for decades now, this is not the first time a useful service has been forced into an unasked for social media format emulating its competing services (Substack) and it won't be the last. I hope it goes well overall. As the marketplace goes, Patreon is where we make the highest cut of subscriber income...
"I'm not trying to be a dick, I'm just increasingly exhausted by the expectation that every month there is some new expectation to address an unending need to feed the insatiable content beast more and more just to be able to the thing we are primarily interested in (make a show / process subscriber fees for said show)."
Anyway, off to come up with some good Quips (ugh) in hopes of MORE ENGAGEMENT.

"Men are rats, listen to me, they're fleas on rats, worse than that. They're amoebas on fleas on rats. I mean, they're too low for even the dogs to bite. The only man a girl can depend on is her daddy." In which Courtney Kocak introduces Alex to Grease.
Just covered The Safe Harbor (S3E11) for The OC, Again and I love, love, love that it is a series of open nods to the Donna Martin Graduates episode of Beverly Hills 90210 (that episode aired 33 years ago last week, by the way).
