Just finished Making of a Murderer on Netflix. Excellent and troubling. I've started watching The Circus on Showtime.

It also was played during the broadcast of the Blackhawks game on Saturday night.

I don't find many of Bernie's positions on any issue appealing (and don't plan to vote for him), but I find him very appealing as a person. He is principled and authentic -- unlike most of the other candidates from the two parties. Plus, the prospect of serial Larry David appearances on SNL is irresistible!

^^^ Agree on "You, Me & The Apocalypse." I used to kind of hate Rob Lowe. But his role on Parks & Recreation completely changed my opinion of him. And now with The Grinder and Y,M & the A, he's one of my favorites. Stick to comedy, Rob. You're pretty great at it.

Thanks, LouieB. Just ordered "New York Before the War" used from Reckless.

That was great.

Thanks, guys. Anyone else want to chime in on Jesse Malin album recommendations?

At the Alejandro Escovedo show on Saturday the couple next to me were raving about Jesse Malin. I've heard of him but am unfamiliar with his work. Turns out he's playing in Nashville the same weekend I'll be there -- tickets were only $15.00 so I grabbed a couple (not much of a risk at that price). If there are any Jesse Malin fans out there, I'd appreciate recommendations on albums of his I should check out. Thanks.

^^^ Agree. Sound + Vision is one of my favorite Bowie songs. There's something about the way Bowie sings the word "vision" that makes me smile every time. It has a harmonic quality to it -- like a vibrating pipe.
