Yeah, DJ Shadow and Tricky and Massive Attack are for aging hipster dads like me, can throw in Portishead too. Dad Trip Hop is where it’s at.

In the 90's Counting Crows was Dad Rock immediately. 

Obvious? Well the “rock” label is less obvious, I guess in the broad scope of music they fit there. I’d go with “pop rock” really. The New Radicals reunited and played the inauguration at the request of Biden and Harris this seems very obvious. 

I never understood it. She seems psyched to be an actor! That’s like, yeah. She successfully made the transition from Disney kid to A-lister. Let her be psyched!

I often feel terrible for the way the internet treated this very genuine and delightful theatre girl a few years back.

love this show. seeing a real shift away from ‘omg epic lolz’ tim & eric style* comedy into slower burn, more deliberate stuff like this and joe pera talks with you.

The official story is different but if that’s not a cover for what you assumed then I’ll eat my hat.

A rare spotting of the sweet laurel canyon sound in the wild. Makes me incredibly nostalgic for the days there would have been so many DAWES memes in this comment section

WTF is you issue exactly? It’s a small business owner saying that we need a plan to deal with the pandemic so that it is safe to open again. JFC

Watched this as wee little gay in 2003 and it fully lead me to a career in public health.

“Mind if I turn on the radio?”
“Oh, my favorite song” she said
And it was Joni singing “Help me I think I’m falling...”Brrring

Goethe was a damn stone cold genius.  

If anyone can crack BBC iPlayer they have a superb new show, Staged, with David Tennant and Michael Sheen as (versions of) themselves, video-calling each other and other cast members and crew as they try to rehearse a version of Pirandello’s Six Characters In Search Of An Author to, supposedly, be staged after the…

Are you joking? Leftists hate Hamilton.

They’ll make millions either way. I’m proposing they make even more money by not hiring screenwriters and re-writers and fully embrace their lazy nature. I think Spade just shooting the shit with Sandler over lunch would be a more entertaining movie than “The Wrong Missy.” 

You wonder why the Happy Madison crew doesn’t just steal this format, instead of trying to come up with some contrived movie premise to justify their vacation travel. It would probably be way more entertaining. 

I know I speak for the entire AV Club when I say we are all SO sorry that you had to find out this way, seeing how close you were. Condolences.

i'm gonna go into bat for long long long as one of the best songs on the white album, and probably my favourite harrison composition. its mood of isolation and (yes) longing are totally successful, and it's one of his best vocals

The White Album is my favorite Beatles LP because it embraces its own flaws instead of working too hard to gloss them over ('Sgt. Pepper's") or just not giving a damn ("Let It Be"). "Revolution 9" encapsulates the spirit of the world's biggest band daring to put out an album with spots that aren't just rough around…

Okay, I'll start the number 9 discussion.
