Bagels and carbs, carbs and bagels. They go together. Bagels are good, cream cheese is great, and running is OK. But we understand that in order to eat bagels smothered in cream cheese, you’re going to have to run to still fit in between your office chair and desk. So…
It’s Friday night at Station 4 and Jenna Skyy is dressed and ready to perform. She is drinking an Angry Orchard and “tribbling” — a term she uses to describe mingling. A young man gropes her ass, but she is polite…
You know when you have spent all day and night drinking and then you find yourself running? You’re running from something — whether it’s the cops, your friends, the bouncer at the bar — point is, you’re running. And you feel nauseous and horrible. Well take that feeling and reverse…
Finding a soulmate is difficult, especially in 2015. Marilyn Monroe or Hepburn, or some famous female of the 20th century once said, “I don’t mind approaching guys, just as long as I can be a woman approaching guys.” So true. It’s hard to be single out there. People are way…
After David Vobora arrived back home in Dallas after a week in the Bermuda Triangle, he consumed 13,000 calories in 24 hours. He had just spent a week filming for a man versus water-type reality show called The Raft for National Geographic. The concept is essentially where he and one…
There aren’t many people worth traveling more than 1,000 miles for. Maybe the president of the United States, maybe your child you’ve never met, or maybe a resurrected John Lennon. But a former Bachelor contestant?…

She stole our hearts when she first stepped out of the limo holding a karaoke machine and singing to the Bachelor. Then she went and stomped all over our hearts when she told on fellow contestant Britt for being dishonest to the Prince Farming. She’s Carly Waddell, a cruise ship…
This weekend, Dallas is going to be the epicenter of country music. The 50th Academy of Country Music Awards will be taking place at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, and in the days preceding the gala basically everybody who’s anybody in country music will be here to perform, including two nighttime…
You know what’s fun? Singing a cappella. You know what’s more fun? Singing a cappella on TV as part of a singing competition called The Sing-Off. If you’ve never seen it before, that’s because it’s on NBC and it’s hosted by Nick Lachey, the guy who was in a band…
What’s worse than going on three dates with someone before realizing they are a horrible human being and can never be trusted? It’s not that they have a criminal past or put ketchup on their eggs, it’s that they listen to that … music. You know, Nickleback or slow jazz…
When Hannah Kirby finished “Gimme Shelter” in The Voice’s battle round, her fate was in the hands of her coach, Blake Shelton. If you’ve never seen The Voice, it’s a singing competition show that strives to cut out the looks and glamour of being a musician and get to the…
I guess he read my review…

Shoes. You have, like, a million of them in your closet right now. You have a different pair for every dress imaginable. You wear them every day, even when you don’t want to. Shoes are super important. I mean, where would Cinderella be without her glass slipper? Probably still scrubbing…
Do you want the good news or the bad news first? The good news a new reality show centering on the ladies of Dallas was recently picked up. Its working title is Ladies of Dallas because duh. The bad news is Bravo will show it. Bravo brought you all of…

The best part of school was always recess. The playground. The swings and the monkey bars and the time to play with other rascals. But with adulthood comes taxes and boring dinner parties and no more recess. And it sucks. But luckily for you, there’s an adult version of recess…
There are three simple rules for keeping a gremlin: Don’t expose it to sunlight, never let it touch water, and never, under any circumstances, feed it after midnight. In Joe Dante’s Gremlins, Gizmo, the main gremlin, proves to be a difficult responsibility when it keeps spawning little equally terrifying destructive…
RiFF RAFF Thee Theater, Dallas Friday, March 27, 2015 It’s like a nightmare. All of the worst nightmares combined into one. One where you are naked in front of your peers, trying to scream but nothing is coming out, and you somehow end up in a car that is flying…
Most scary movies consist of characters trying to find their way out of insane circumstances. But when the characters purposely put themselves into the insane circumstances, it makes for a completely different story.
