  The world’s a pretty objectively terrible place right now, isn’t it? All manner of chaos and ignorance is getting thrown at us at a never-ending pace, taxing anyone who feels the responsibility to keep abreast with that’s happening. But, it’s always nice to take a nice break […]

9. Super Fly

One of the aspects of this new project that has been the most fun to me has been the way that I’m able to completely vacillate between radically different tones and genres, week by week. I’m able to jump between comedy, action, sci-fi, noirs, fantasy, Westerns, and now […]
