Jurassic World: Rebirth

“Okay, so on to the new Jurassic movie. We’ve got a great director, the original Jurassic Park screenwriter, and a cast of A-list actors for the demographic. Do we have Pedro Pascal?” “No, he’s shooting six other shows in our window.” “Fine, just get a Mexican guy who...

Measuring Sticks

Measuring Sticks

In the world of the independent artist, there aren’t obvious measuring sticks by which to judge our progress. It’s why we often compare ourselves to our friends and peers. My special has gotten 30,000 views this month. Is that extraordinary? Just ordinary? A miserable...
