CWT611: New Year's Resolution / After We Fell (2021) REVIEW 20:12

Play Pause

8h ago20:12

20:12

Today I'm talking about After We Fell, the 2021 romantic drama and the third installment in the After franchise. If you’ve made it this far into the series, you already know what kind of ride you’re signing up for. Big emotions, messy relationships, and a lot of arguing in nice-looking rooms.

4d ago12:05

12:05

[NOTE: I will upload a fuller video of this, if there is a demand for it, with "demand" meaning if even 1 person asks for it.] In his latest documentary work, Homegrown, filmmaker Michael Premo turns his camera away from institutions and figureheads and instead focuses on the everyday people who became wrapped up in the events surrounding January 6…

🎙️CWT609: The Divinyls – Underworld (1996): Darkness at the End of the Line 8:57

7d ago8:57

8:57

If you think of the Divinyls purely through the lens of “I Touch Myself,” you'll have an idea of what this album might provide — even if the lyrics don't unsettle prudes as much as their hit about handling the bearded clam.

🎙️CWT608: 'Highway 61 Revisited': Dylan's Song, America, and the Sound of Collapse 20:03

8d ago20:03

20:03

Released in 1965 as the title track of Dylan’s album Highway 61 Revisited, the song stands as one of the clearest statements of his break from acoustic folk into electric blues-rock. This wasn’t a gentle evolution. It was a confrontation — with tradition, with authority, and with the idea that music should behave itself.…

🎙️CWT606: Hunger in the Gingerbread House: Teeth, Fire, Female Fury 🧙‍♀️🍭🔥 13:22

13d ago13:22

13:22

When we think about fairy tales, most of us picture the cleaned-up versions. Soft edges. Clear morals. Princesses who suffer quietly until someone saves them. These are the Victorian-era revisions many of us grew up with, stories that have been sanded down to feel safe, instructive, and polite. But that’s not where these stories began...…

🎙️CWT605: 'Romancing the Stone' by Eddy Grant MUSIC VIDEO REVIEW 13:12

12d ago13:12

13:12

Today, I'm talking about a song that lives at the crossroads of pop music and movie history. It’s called “Romancing the Stone”, and it comes from Eddy Grant in 1984. It was also made to promote a film of the same name.

Today, I'm talking about a surprisingly common pattern in predators, both living and extinct. It’s a dental setup where teeth are concentrated toward the front of the jaws, while the back of the mouth has fewer teeth or none at all. Also, what's a key difference between alligators and crocodiles? It's all right here! IMAGE CREDIT: Some joke on Redd…

🎙️CWT601: Highway 61 Revisited — Dylan Goes Electric 11:24

16d ago11:24

11:24

Today we’re digging into Highway 61 Revisited, the 1965 Bob Dylan album that marked the moment he threw himself fully into electric rock. If you know even a little Dylan, you know this is the record that split audiences, rewired songwriting, and helped move popular music into a new era.

🎙️CWT600: Education Faces a War on Science 17:29

17d ago17:29

17:29

Today, I want to talk about something that, at first glance, looks like a routine university course offering. But somehow, it ends up tangled in a much bigger fight. A fight over science, education, and who knowledge is supposed to be for. I will also discuss how outrage against the course ties into a broader war on science and education overall...…

🎙️CWT596: Favored and Forsaken 6:58

20d ago6:58

6:58

There’s a common mistake people make when they look at ancient epics, especially Greek ones. They assume these stories are just primitive attempts to explain cruelty. Bad things happen because the gods are petty. Lightning strikes because Zeus is angry. Suffering gets shrugged off as fate. But that reading misses the point.…

When we teach folktales, we often treat them like containers. Open the story. Extract the lesson. Close the book. Be kind. Be brave. Don’t lie. Message received. Next story. But what if that’s the least interesting thing a folktale can do?

In 2003, The Mars Volta released De-Loused in the Comatorium — an album that didn’t just enter the world of rock music… it detonated inside it.

It’s a question that comes up a lot — especially online. If liberals champion tolerance and acceptance, why do they seem unwilling to extend that same courtesy to conservatives?
