 From Adal:

Jemma and I had the best time in Japan! This time around we got to pop over to Kyoto and Osaka as well as hit up some of our favorite places again in Tokyo. We ended up buying 2 suitcases (thank you Don Quijote) to bring back all the shit we (I) bought, which was mostly the byproduct of me becoming infatuated this time around with the insane gachapons available. My favorite being animals that are weighing themselves. I also brought back way too many Smiski figures. Jemma and I are writing up a document with all our favorite things we did if you ever want a copy for an upcoming trip. 

Here’s what I consumed in August. Let me know if you’ve enjoyed anything recently that I should check out!

TV:

• Mr. Throwback 

• RuPaul’s Global All-Stars

• English Teacher

• Hard Knocks: Training Camp with the Bears

• Receivers

• Untold: The Murder of Air McNair

Movies: 

• Singin’ In the Rain - I’d never seen this before so Jemma insisted I finally watch and I adored it. Way funnier than I thought it would be and I’m now interested in checking out all of Donald O’Connor’s work

• Adam Sandler: Love You

• Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire

• The Marvels

Other Stuffs: 

• In Japan I listened to Taeko Onuki on repeat for most of the trip. If you haven’t heard her song 4:00 A.M. then you should remedy that now. Let it be the soundtrack to the next walk you take. Since being back home I’ve listened to some Alice in Chains while cleaning and have been loving Magdalena Bay’s album Imaginal Disk. Also you better believe I’m absolutely CHUFFED about the Oasis reunion. I saw them live on their final tour and am trying to scramble and figure out how/when I can see them next year. Rock N’ Roll (Britpop) is back!

• Enjoying playing Peglin on Switch. As a big fan of Peggle, this scratches that itch. 

• Saw the Back to the Future musical and it was better than I anticipated. All the Delorean effects were pretty magical

• Went to Rita’s Italian Ice a few times for a raspberry gelati. Similar to Wawa, I’d never heard of this place in my life until Jemma pointed out there was one near us and it’s apparently an east coast staple. I’m addicted. 

• Played more Blood On the Clock Tower - always a blast.

• Listening to the podcast Sixteenth Minute (Of Fame)

• Recently guested on two podcasts I always have a great time on: 1. My Cabbages: An Avatar Podcast (talking about Legend of Korra s1 e12) 2. TV & Movie Trivia Pod (talking Beetlejuice)

From JPC:

Hey Riddiots -

I’m on vacation. Hope everyone has a happy whatever holiday this is where my wife gets Monday off. I’d Google it but that would be Labor and I do NOT Labor while I’m on vacation. 

Love,

JPC

Love
