…About the Rocky Franchise

Even if your opponent would fight as hard as they can to get their way instead of you getting your way, you don’t have to be enemies. That’s what I learned from the Rocky movies. That’s what I learned from Carl Weathers.

…About 2023

It’s been close to a year since my last podcast, and what a year it’s been. I’m not good at keeping things brief, but I’ll do my best in this “lightning round” of 2023 highlights (and some lowlights).

…About Writing Mysteries

Are you writing the kind of mystery you like to solve?  Can you solve it the way it’s written?  If you can’t, then I guarantee your readers won’t be able to.  In this episode, I talk about how to write good mysteries.

…About James Cameron’s Avatar Franchise

James Cameron has taken us to a new world, with new life and new civilizations. A lot of people around the world love the Avatar movies, but a lot of people have concerns about them. In this podcast, I talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly about Avatar.

…About the Role of Thanksgiving

The more we learn about the true history of our nation and how it was formed, the more injustices we’ll notice in the world today, and the more motivated we’ll be to correct them. That’s what I think the purpose of Thanksgiving should be.

Elon Musk’s ostensible purpose in buying Twitter was to make it a “platform for free speech around the globe”. It already was that. Now, it’s just another free-for-all hellscape, and I want no part in it.
