If you visit the Killer Cocktails website about now, one of the first photos you’ll find will be of hosts Shawndreya “Dreya” Garliepp and Jackie DeGear, each of their hands duct-taped around 40-ounce bottles of beer. DeGear’s mouth is in a straight frown of resignation while Garliepp chugs down one of her Busch Classics. If […]

May the Source Be With You
Holy heck, everyone! We’re right in the middle of it now. Summer is here, with her arms blissfully stretched out, cracking her back and, I dunno, maybe playing some cornhole while eating a brat and sipping a honey-colored microbrew. That sounds like what she’d do. And you too, maybe! But when you’re not doing that, […]
May the Source Be with You
Has it been a month already? Have you missed me as much as I missed you?? Awww, that’s sweet. Anyway, it’s been a rough 30 days since last we spoke, what with “Avengers: Endgame” stomping our hearts into Ant-Man sized pieces and “Game of Thrones” progressively feeling like the world’s deadliest game of musical chairs. […]
May the Source Be with You
We’re a quarter of the way through the year already?! That doesn’t seem right. It feels like just yesterday that I made a New Year’s resolution to stop shame-eating entire DiGiorno pizzas while crying through old episodes of “Golden Girls.” Well, maybe next year. Instead, I think I’ll put my effort into finding awesome and […]
10 Barrel Podcast
Get behind the scenes at 10 Barrel with its new podcast, “Fully Aligned.” With two episodes under their belt, the podcasters deliver life at the brewery with cheeky antics. If you can get beyond the bro talk and frat vibe, even with a female co-host, local craft beer enthusiasts will geek out on all the […]
May the Source Be With You
Ahhh, February. The month in which folks in relationships remind me how blissfully happy they are on Instagram, while my mom reminds me that there’s still someone special out there for me by once again being the only one to send me a Valentine. I also try to celebrate February’s Black History Month by focusing […]
Top 10 Movies (and Other Stuff) of 2018
Here we are again. Another end of the year list and the end of a pretty phenomenal year for film. Normally, it’s pretty easy for me to select a top 10, but this year I had around 25 in my list and it was like telling my kids they were ugly each time I eliminated […]
May the Source Be with You
I know. I can’t believe it has been another year, either. It’s heartbreaking to think about how much time I spent listening to podcasts and binging on another silly…just kidding, it’s the greatest. We’re living our best lives, not because we have the spare time to listen to podcasts and watch cool stuff, but because we’re […]
May the Source Be with You: Halloween edition
I have a bit of an obsession with the macabre year-round, so using Halloween as an excuse to talk about scary stuff is a bit disingenuous. Still, I’ll take what I can get. There are so many different sub-genres of horror that people with a deep aversion to, say, clowns, can avoid Pennywise and all of […]
