On the radio this weekend: We go inside one of the biggest parties in New York City. People come from all over the world. There are masks, feathers, rivalries that go back years, men staring at women. And one guy trying not to stare. bit.ly/2MypMtC

Writer and poet Imani Brown takes us through her experience at the West Indian American Day Parade that takes place in the early hours before the parade starts. bit.ly/2petz7s

I don’t even know what to say about this week’s TAL other than I just had to pause it at the break. I don’t want it to end. Neil with another banger. Every time he’s in the host chair that show is so damn good. And shouts out to Nadia on that good ass story. In awe!

Hi! I’m at #ThirdCoast19 looking for stories. Anybody have any pitches? Seriously. Come find me.

Somehow Freshly -- which is, at least, shaped like food --left me feeling less like a human than Soylent. Lesson learned.

Happy to hear Steph Rennick Steph Rennick shout out Mass Effect Andromeda here abc.net.au/radionational/… (Yes, I'm one of those.)

No one warned me about who shows up partway through Hawkeye and both literally and figuratively pours hot sauce over everything.

Personally, I'd kill to find a post-Gamergate, of-the-moment, engaging and tellable story about women in gaming. Who's your favorite reporter covering this stuff? Or someone living it?

Now that we have the technology to make Mark Hamill nineteen again, can we get a sequel to Corvette Summer? #BobaFett

Last week’s Euphoria was so bonkers, I thought it was the season finale. Imagine my surprise…

In high school, I'd have been okay with banning Ethan Frome — not because of the sex stuff. That book was just a slog. #THHSAlumni

Question: What is anyone/everyone's favorite *fiction* writing about contemporary gaming?

We finished the final print issue of Washington City Paper last night. It was a somber task and a tough week. One bright spot was my conversation with Neil Drumming, who provided some optimistic final thoughts during otherwise shitty circumstances. washingtoncitypaper.com/article/555713…

Damn. The Orville got dark.

Every week for many weeks, I’ve had the same thought: I wish I had someone to discuss The Orville with.

How soon before we see versions of the current advanced AI incorporated into game dev? Or is that not a priority? Just curious.

Lots of mainstream journalists explaining Discord this week.
