History of The Three Stooges (Part I: The Beginnings and Columbia Pictures - 1920s-1936)
I have been itching to write about The Three Stooges on Vocal for close to two years, but I couldn't figure out how to do it. I wanted to do it by third Stooge, but that's a bit complicated. I know this much. I was about eight or nine years old when I first saw The Three Stooges. I remember one of my local channels had the Stooges on for hours, and I tried my damnedest to be up for those shorts. I remember that the Family Channel actually had an hour of the Stooges on from 11PM to midnight, and it was the entire library on during that time.

The Politics of Playing Dress-Up
Well, to start off I'd like to say a happy world book day to all who celebrate. I know I haven't really posted anything on my socials about it but I'm not a jubilant kind of person. I lay low most of the time. Let's start off with a popular anecdote from the vaults...

A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Series Review (Season 1)
As one of the biggest properties in fantasy, A Song of Ice and Fire remains immensely popular with audiences. After reaching far into the past with House of the Dragon, a second spin-off was on the cards. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms serves up a bite-sized slice of action and drama, but it still claims a spot among the best small-screen titles.

The Big Book Review: "Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman (Pt.1)
This book is split into parts but honestly, the parts themselves have so many ideas that I have no idea how I could fit everything I wanted to say into ONE review. I know I haven't done this since 'Reliable Essays' by Clive James, but I'd like to try that structure again. Sorry if it's not something you enjoy but I really wanted to share this...

Goodbye, Mr. Duvall
It is turning out to be an interesting year. I was in the middle of teaching a class when a pop-up appeared on the screen announcing the death of Mr. Robert Seldon Duvall (yes, that was his full name). I was in the middle of a discussion on the obsession we have with winning when it comes to sports (the Winter Olympics was a theme), and I felt as though things were coming full circle. We had already lost Gene Hackman last year, and along with that titan, it feels though one particular golden age has closed off to be replaced by...?

The Invisible Nuclear Bomb
The morning news felt different that day. My coffee was lukewarm, my toast burned, and every headline seemed to hum with tension: “Strait of Hormuz Tensions Rise” and “Global Oil Markets on Edge.” I couldn’t stop thinking about it. This wasn’t just politics—it was my grocery bill, my rent, the cost of driving to work. I realized I had been blissfully unaware of how a tiny stretch of water halfway across the world could grip my daily life like a vice.

Book Review: "American Poetry: A Very Short Introduction" by David Caplan
Help me, I'm stuck in the Very Short Introduction series and I can't get out! No really, this is becoming the same problem I had a few years ago when I got my limbs caught in the British Library Crime Classics series and ended up reading almost 100 of those books in perhaps a few months. Now, I've managed to find one on American Poetry, I have to say it is probably one of my favourites so far. I mean The Beats is good, but American Poetry has Phillis Wheatley and Emily Dickinson so it is, by default, better. The writer doesn't only display his knowledge of American Poetic History, he also provides some historical accounts of the people who wrote them, commenting on where they fit into the greater American landscape.

History of The Three Stooges (Part II: The Prime Years - 1937-1939)
As I said before, for a long while, I had been wanting to write about The Three Stooges on Vocal, but couldn't figure out how to really do it. Then, I looked at my DVD sets, and decided, that's how I'll do it. For Part I, their earliest years were mentioned leading to their official start at Columbia Pictures. The Stooges were 19 shorts in at Columbia, and as the 1930s progressed, so did the Stooges' popularity.
