Fritz in 4
Bonus hot take is that Jiri Lehechka makes it to the semis
My normal prediction for the US Open is that Carlos is gonna win. My semi hot take is that Ben Shelton is gonna make it to the final. My super hot take is that Alex De Minaur is winning the whole thing
This is an all time Criterion month
“Listening to audiobooks counts as reading” is the exact same as “driving counts as walking”
I’m really enjoying FREE PLANET by Aubrey Sitterson. Fun socioeconomic action with super dense world building, cool characters, and charts + graphs. What more do you need?????
There’s never a bad time to get into something new but right now would be a great time to start watching tennis
I think Carlos Alcaraz is going to become the GOAT. He’s LeBron Jamesing right now. We’re gonna be watching him for another 10 years at least
Since everyone’s (rightfully) talking about Nathan Fielder again, here’s a reminder that THE CURSE was probably the best TV show since TWIN PEAKS: THE RETURN
A few other current favorites that I would highly recommend:
-We’re Taking Everyone Down With Us
-You’ll Do Bad Things
-Blood & Thunder
-Assorted Crisis Events
-I Was a Fashion School Serial Killer
-Free Planet
This has been another installment of Brads Recommendation Corner (Comic Book Edition)
Finally got around to reading EXQUISITE CORPSES by James Tynion IV. Super exciting and XL first issue will have you hooked. Can’t wait to keep reading
If you see Sinners in 4DX, you can actually feel Hailee Steinfeld spit in your mouth
Brian De Palma was on some different shit in the 1970s!!!!!!!
Brads Recommendation Corner: Check out “The Power Fantasy” by Kieron Gillen. It’s really good and I have the feeling it’s only going to get better. This has been another edition of “Brads Recommendation Corner”
30 Rock ass headline
I’m on the internet and recommending Tulsa King to my friends and loved ones!!!!
Great month for Criterion Channel - good to see Jackass: The Movie getting the respect it deserves as a modern masterpiece
Before Spotify does their wrapped lists for the year, I thought I’d remind everyone that the best album that came out this year is not available on Spotify

Dune show is good so far. I like that they included a Duncan Idaho character but made him an evil witch
Can’t tell if I’m going through a Trojan War phase or if I just like the word “Agamemnon”
I am once again watching Troy (2004)
Would any of these fly here?
After getting off twitter I started keeping drafts in a note, there’s gotta be something salvageable in there
Alright time to give another app a try. Surely this will be the good one that we all like and continue to use
