Pendeja Diaries: Quarantine Going on Thirty
I’m in shock that I made it to 30 without a single breakdown leading up to my birthday. I was so ready for it! I had told myself right before 2020 started that it was going to be MY year and I planned to do everything that I had always wanted to do. 2020...
The Yellow Roses Debut Their First Two Singles
It’s easy to get lost in the 80s rock and roll soundscape – not driving 55 in your Trans AM, tunes blaring, windows rolled down so hot air hits your face and blows your hair back. The style is alive and well in the first two singles released by The Yellow Roses,...
Wayne’s World, Party Time, Fabulous: Wayne Holtz plays his last show in San Antonio
I stumbled into the Paper Tiger after taking an uber from a tribute show at the Korova. My vision is a little blurry, I’m not sure if from the three vodka waters or my contacts being three weeks past the recommended wear time. I see familiar faces everywhere as we...
Women’s World Cup Pool 2019
UPDATE FINAL: First of all, congrats to the USWNT. Seeing the schedule we had for the knockout round, I was a little nervous and knew it was going to be tough but man did these ladies kick ass. It was so fun to watch and with every goal and every celebration and...

Get Out
It seems like every year in recent memory, there’s been another great new horror release from a first time director, and 2017 is no different. Last year I wrote about ‘The Witch’ from Robert Eggers and previously there was 'The Babadook’ and 'It Follows’. We’re...
Logan
I’ve never been the biggest fan of the X-men movies. I look at them like I did the Harry Potter series: I’d go see the newest entry, have a fun time, and almost immediately forget about it when I leave the theater (the one exception being Matthew Vaughn’s far...
John Wick: Chapter 2
John McClane. Jason Bourne. James Bond. Ellen Ripley. These guys (and gal) better watch their backs, because there’s a new action hero on the scene, and for my money, he could take all three of them, no problem. With 2014’s ‘John Wick’, director Chad Stahelski...
Split
Alright, it’s time to kick off 2017, and what better way to do it than a great new M. Night Shyamalan movie! Yep, I just said those words. Shyamalan has had an insane roller coaster ride of a career so far, starting with the classic ‘Sixth Sense’, followed by a...
Top 8 Movies of 2016
It’s that time of the year again: time for arbitrary and subjective ‘best of the year’ lists for people to disagree with and argue over. I flirted with the idea of expanding mine to 10, but why mess with tradition? I’ve been doing top 8’s since 2009 in one form or...
La La Land
Let me start off by saying that I’m typically not a fan of musicals. I have a hard time explaining why that is, but I just don’t connect with them (the exceptions being Les Miserables and Phantom of the Opera) for some reason or another. I can now add...
