  • There aren’t a ton of really good women in earlier WWE, but I highly recommend watching AEW for women with fun stories right now. The Timeless Toni Storm storyline is amazing, and you can find a video on YouTube.

    For my money, the best lore and wild character work was in Lucha Underground. I don’t know where to watch it right now, but it has dragons, zombies, moth men, phoenixes, and a crazy violent authority figure who runs the ring like a temple. It’s incredible.

    ETA my partner just let me know Lucha Underground is streaming on Cineverse, which is ad supported. Check it out! It’s WILD.










  • Depeche Mode at the United Center in Chicago is definitely the one that blew me away the most. Their opening act hit the resonance point of the building and shook the whole thing, and Dave Gahan is such a showman. Everyone in the audience was reaching toward him and singing along with Personal Jesus.

    Seeing the Red Elvises is always a treat too, but my partner and I caught them fresh off of touring with The Reverend Horton Heat and they played an incredible set that included a cover of Let Me Teach You How to Eat, and their songs from the movie Six String Samurai (Love Pipe and Boogie on the Beach). They even did a cover of Misirlou that night!
