Listening to DJs Eric and Kathy during my frantic race (if I could highlight “frantic race” and make it size 100 font, I would) to the train station this morning, I learned a bit about Matt Nathanson. Eric informed listeners that Nathanson has to be at least “6 foot billion” and both he and Kathy … Continue reading

Song of the day: “Lately” – Stefano Langone
Maybe I loved this performance because I have an old school obsession with Stevie Wonder. Maybe I clung to it because he delivered a solid performance on American Idol. Or maybe…the sped up version is catchy. Do I prefer the original version? Of course I do, but Langone found a way to make the song … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Everything They Know About Us” – Salteens
A little bit country and a little bit rock and roll might have sounded like an odd mix back in the day but get real, Donny and Marie,…it isn’t that weird. Let’s talk about a new one. How about a little bit Deathcab, a little bit Partridge Family? We’ll let that serve as an adequate … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Where You Are” – Cali Swag District ft. Michael Jackson
This song is a bit of a lie. I heard it at Express the other day (so I technically didn’t find it today) and it’s been stuck in my head ever since. I definitely knew the Michael Jackson portion (duh, what kind of fan would I be if I didn’t) but I couldn’t figure out … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Jolie Coquine” – Caravan Palace
Nothing like a solid, trippy song to start off the week. Today, I wasn’t only introduced to a new song; I was introduced to an entirely new genre: electroswing. Would I normally listen to this type of thing at work? Probably not. Too distracting. Makes me want to dance. How about on a Monday? Nooo … Continue reading
Song of the day: “Turning Tables” – Adele
British singer-songwriter, Adele, released her second album, 21, today and instantly won me over. I wrestled with myself in terms of turning this into an album review rather than song of the day for longer than I’d like to admit…but settled with sticking to my goal of posting a new song each day. (Don’t be … Continue reading
Song of the day: “That Should Be Me,” Justin Bieber and Rascal Flatts
Alright, I’m starting something new. Because my iPod is crying for new music, I’ve decided to take on a new challenge: to discover a new song every day. Hopefully Pandora can help in this endeavor, but I also hope all of you can give suggestions! Consider this to be your challenge, as well. As I … Continue reading
It’s about to get weird: DFW Boys
“Students come to Notre Dame to learn not only how to think but also how to live…” For alumni The King, Fancy G, Krispy Kreme and Officer Nik Rod, Notre Dame taught them that being down for weird was a way of life. After meeting in South Bend, Indiana, the foursome cemented their bond in … Continue reading
True Grit Review
by: Tyler Deardorff John Wayne, please don’t haunt me, but Jeff Bridges was better as Rooster Cogburn than you were. Now don’t get me wrong, both are very good, well acted movies but Jeff Bridges is a hilarious badass in this version. The Coen Brothers, yet again, make another great movie with beautiful cinematography. 14 … Continue reading
Black Swan Review
by: Tyler Deardorff Wow, I was not expecting this. When my friend Anne asked me to go see this movie (we usually see the “hype” movies) I was expecting a lame ballet movie. Holy shadooby was I wrong. This movie is intense, disturbing, suspenseful and a it messes with your mind. Natalie Portman is practically … Continue reading
