2024-09-2759 minThe Top 5 PodcastTop 5 Worst Karaoke SongsWho doesn’t love to sing? In the car, in the shower, with friends. But never, never in public.

While everyone is allowed to karaoke, some may need to think carefully about what they are trying to sing.

2024-03-101h 00The Top 5 PodcastTop 5 Video Game SoundtracksThink back on some of the most iconic moments in movie history. Think about the exact moment when the Avengers assembled for the first time in New York City. Think about when Sam and Frodo were lying on the side of Mount Doom near the brink of death, so close to finishing their quest. The score has an unquantifiable impact on the scene; it elevates, depresses, excites, or frightens us. Musical scores and soundtracks when done really well transform a great story into a masterpiece. It’s also true with video games, which is something not a lot of pe...

2023-11-241h 01The Top 5 PodcastTop 5 Sci-Fi SettingsScience Fiction means so many things all at once. It is a catalyst for creativity and inquiry, and through its creation of alternate realities, it serves as a mirror to reflect where we are today. The setting is itself a main character in any Sci-Fi story as it is the all-important binding element that makes the story possible. A Sci-Fi show set a few centuries in the future would undoubtedly have to project our path forward and explain how we got to that point, whether it’s a positive view of the future, or a totally dystopian one.
