Why Does ‘X’ Mark The Spot For Coolness In Pop Culture?

Why Does 'X' Mark The Spot For Coolness In Pop Culture?

What is it about X? Probably the coolest letter of the 26, X definitely marks the hot spot in entertainment. No, Bert and Ernie didn’t put me up to this. When it comes to the letters of the alphabet, X is the favorite child in the world of cool. Examine the facts: One of the coolest shows in TV history is Fox’s sci-fi thriller, “The X-Files.” It’s an excellent show, even if it does promote xenophobia. After the movie “Malcolm X” was released, millions of athletes, musicians and assorted geeks trying to look hard started wearing hats, shirts,... Read More

Are There Satanic Illuminati Messages In Children’s Cartoons? Which Is The Worst Offender?

Are There Satanic Illuminati Messages In Children's Cartoons? Which Is The Worst Offender?

If you have small children, more than likely Satan is in your house. But he doesn’t wear black robes. He’s seldom seen spinning Led Zeppelin records backward. And he’s not the one that keeps flicking on “Real Housewives” and laughing when you’re not in the room. That’s the ghost of your great-great-great-Uncle George. Actually, he’s purple and chubby and he sings ghoulish verses that could chill the marrow of Kid Rock more than Dylan Mulvaney in a bikini! “I love you, you love me, we’re a happy family . . .” Yes, that buddy... Read More

Forget Dylan Mulvaney And Bud Light, THESE Are Some Of The Worst Ideas In Pop Culture

Forget Dylan Mulvaney And Bud Light, THESE Are Some Of The Worst Ideas In Pop Culture

The controversy continues over Dylan Mulvaney and her Bud Light can, and goobers like Kid Rock who are buying the beer just so they can shoot their crossbows at it or whatever on dumb TikTok videos. Bud Light’s executives issued a somewhat apology about the whole thing this week, but, as I said in my previous column, the whole thing was a dumb idea from the start. Even if Dylan Mulvaney weren’t a trans woman, her style and audience is pretty far from the down-the-middle crowd that actually drinks Bud Light. No woman who dresses like Audrey Hepburn and stars in Broadway shows is going... Read More

Keggers And Eggers: The Events That Just Don’t Make The Calendar Cut

April 14th, 2023
Sean Leary

Every week, we provide you with a huge calendar of activities that will take place in the Quad-Cities area over the coming week. Because we love you. And because it’s our job … to love you. (The preceding sentence was written in tribute to the late Luther Vandross.) However, some calendar items we receive don’t make the list. Some are out of the geographic area. Some aren’t really entertainment. And some … well, some just don’t seem to fit in, if you know what I mean. For those of you who don’t know what I mean, I thought I’d provide a few examples.... Read More
