The Roots don't have their longevity, but they're my favorite group. Their last album was their most inconsistent, but it wasn't bad, and I'm hoping they come roaring back sometime in the near future. Hardly a week goes by where I don't listen to a Roots song. Black Thought is a Top 5 DOA MC.

I was hoping it would be out by the time November has come.

When a friend told me this was happening on the show last night, I could not think of words. I just responded with shocked emojis. (I usually have the best words.)

Once the year is over, when we think of good things that happened in 2016, and we may have trouble at first, let us not forget this.

You don't need doubletalk…

And you didn't even get the Republican Vice Presidential nomination. Talk about adding insult to injury.

Although she's shrouded in legend and liberties will most definitely be taken, there's actually going to be a biopic on her scheduled to come out next year. Tituba will be played by Anne Hathaway.

And there's a Salem in New Hampshire less than an hour away from Salem, Massachusetts! I'm seeing double, four Salem's!

I do agree with you there. I'm pretty sure there was considerable controversy when Spielberg left the Twin Towers in "A.I." before it came out on DVD/VHS (remember when that was a thing?) and when Martin Scorsese showed it in the last frame of "Gangs of New York". I was only a child at the time, though I was just old…

Ah, Sprite Remix! Yeah, I enjoyed that in its heyday…although not as much as the old Sierra Mist, before they changed their formula. There are few things I miss more.

Alright then, @empathylouis:disqus. As a soda fan who recognizes that it has to be consumed in moderation, what would you tell someone like me my brother, Prighlobrone, who loves soda and overindulges too often? Any ideas or strategies on how to cut down without eradicating it from my his life?

Could it please be Andre Braugher's year this year?

Probably misses his old glasses.

Gah, as if this year hasn't been bad enough…

Hey. My last order was CDs too: the newest Aesop Rock and Radiohead albums.

It's 222-2222!

What did you think of seasons 2 & 3? While I think this season has improved since its beginning, I'm not sure if I'd put it in the same company as those two, which had some of my favorite episodes. At any case, I'm looking forward to the finale.

Isaac Newton was one of many famous people, including Michaelangelo, Buzz Aldrin and Jim Carrey to suffer from depression. I suppose that wouldn't make a very fun Wiki Wormhole though.

Worrying about everything is not good, so I'm guessing you're simply not a weed person. Or maybe you haven't tried the right weed for you, but I wouldn't know, as I'm not a weed person myself.

The 5% Nation has become largely irrelevant in hip-hop since it peaked in the late 80's and early 90's, despite the occasional believer and the occasional reference here and there. There's been no record of Jay ever being Muslim, much less a member of the Nation. I don't deny that their beliefs are ridiculous, it's…
