  1. Been waiting for this to start streaming for a long time. One of my all time favorites. I particularly like the more odd and surreal episodes, like Aurora Borealis and The Body in Question. The minor characters like Bernard and Adam are also wonderful.
  2. Are you suggesting MisterP drives a used Corvette?
  3. That the Jewish people outlasted multiple other powers that have conquered/attacked Israel in the past . . . and maybe Greeks and Romans fit the meter better than Ottomans and Babylonians.
  4. I used to fish on a river near Santa Cruz and would occasionally encounter what appeared to be UCSC students. Based on those experiences, my impression is that UCSC students really like to do psychedelics in the woods.
  5. Once about a month after it opened. Food was really good, and overall more interesting than comparable places I have been in Austin (e.g. Peacock). It was loud. Really long dinner . . . as in I had to ask the waiter whether they had forgotten to put in several of the dishes and noticed nearby table having the same issue.
  6. I have always found Vespaio to be a bit more charming than Red Ash.
  7. Actually, no. The Domain is great because (1) I dont ever have to go there; and (2) it keeps all of the northern suburbanites from coming into Austin proper. If you want to talk dancing on Austin's grave . . . there is a Hermes boutique on South Congress.
  8. I would start with the self-titled album. Then Goodbye Normal Street or Diamonds and Gasoline. There are some great songs on all of the albums, so hard to go wrong.
  9. The one where you were youngest and had the least responsibility? Austin has definitely changed a lot. But I cant help thinking that we are all conflating Austin changing and loss of our youth. The young people here still seem to be having a pretty good time.
  10. Most of the stuff I look at is more targeted towards middle aged guys (putthison.com, Drake's lookbook, DieWorkwear, etc.), so maybe not the best fit for a 20 yr old. Todd Snyder and No Man Walks Alone sell semi-classic clothes a stylish 20 year old might like, but the prices are too high for most people that age. Maybe tell him to check out EdgyAlbert on Insta/TikTok. Guy has tolerable style compared to most Gen Z influencers.
  11. Of that list, the only one that has any argument for best of all time is Garcia. He has his own definitive style and is not just copying others (like Clapton). And millions of people across multiple generations (most of which are not guitar players) love to listen to extended Dead jams. It would be hard to think of another guitar player that has inspired so many non-guitar players to listen to lengthy guitar-driven instrumental music. A similar argument could probably be made for Page or Gilmore given how iconic a lot of their guitar riffs/solos are and that LZ and PF have retained relevance to a broad audience over the decades. I suspect most guitar players would say Hendrix or whoever their favorite jazz player is.
  12. Neil is my tone hero . . . especially on Like a Hurricane and the Deadman soundtrack. I also love the tone on pretty much any Ry Cooder recording or anything I have seen from Blake Mills.
  13. Nothing wrong with 501s. Everyone under 30 seems to be wearing rather full cut jeans these days, so something like 511s are actually now the "dad jeans". 501s also have a reasonably high rise, so they can work with a tucked in shirt. If you want higher end than levis, other brands to look at would be RRL and Imogene & Willie.

    Musah. But I think Arteta would be great for McKennie's development -- especially fixing the defensive lapses we see from Wes.
  15. Byrds - Gram Parsons Wilco - Jay Bennett Wilco - Nels (improved live shows, not the albums) Beatles - Clarence Walker
