Link of the Day: Kids in the Hall Audio Archive

, September 16, 2010

I guess “nostalgia” is the most appropriate word with which to describe a site like this one. For one thing, it’s an audio archive, and you sure don’t see a lot of those anymore. For another, it’s an audio archive based on a great show that went off the air fifteen years ago. Also, the […]

Link of the Day: Sade

, September 8, 2010

Sade is amazing, you guys. It’s unbelievable how talented she is, you know? I don’t even know why we need Turing tests, if you want my opinion. If Sade’s music has never put your heart and soul through the wringer, then you’re basically a robot.
