  1. I feel like Wednesday et al are Gen Z on paper but probably have more in common with Millenial stereotypes. They seem to like drugs, fucking, and hell raising more than the rest of their cohort. Much like how us old Millenials (I believe you're a fellow Xennial) were infused with a healthy does of Gen X preferences and outlooks.
  2. Pretty sure the Crutchfield sisters are straight up Millenials. Lenderman is Gen Z.
  3. These are my two favorites off the Snocaps album
  4. Snocaps is basically Waxahatchee's current line up + her sister. If you enjoy it, check out the Waxahatchee albums as well as MJ Lenderman (dude playing drums in the clip) and Wednesday. All part of a big sprawling connected universe/scene that's making some of the best albums of the post COVID era.
  5. Yes. I learned the hard way about posting in the chili thread without making sure that the recipe has less than one deviation from the San Antonio Chili Ladies of 1836's method. Funny part is after absorbing all that eye rolling provincialistic nonsense, I have started making chili (w/out beans) fairly regularly and did a big batch of it for the Iowa/Iowa State game earlier this year. A good buddy of mine was over for the game and he absolutely fucking loved it. He and I, and another good friend were out to lunch this Saturday and he brought up how good that was (suggesting I make a batch for a guy's weekend we're doing in March). Our other friend (who wasn't there that day) got to asking about the recipe. When he found out there were no were no beans in it, he goes "why would you do that??" Like with the same tone he'd have responded with if I told him I started abusing dogs for fun. Their exclusion was as offensive to him as their inclusion is to y'all. Cracked me up.
  6. One of his many eulogies has called his live albums "stand up comedy with really great songs in between". That's pretty much who he was as a performer.
  7. Yeah, it was either the day before or the day after that show (I saw them in St Paul) Isbell played Elephant and you could hear a pin drop. It was one of those moments where you knew you were hearing something that was going to alter things.
  8. Shit, she actually looks like she's lost weight in that video
  9. I remember seeing Isbell open for Todd a few months before Southeastern dropped. Seems wild to say that now, but it made total sense at the time.
  10. Sure looks like him
  11. Forgot how good this shit is
  12. God damn it, Spike
  13. Agreed. At his best he was an absolute genius.
  14. Todd ripping up my old college hang
  15. Came here to post this. Play a mother fucking train song, y’all.
  16. Ugh. It does not seem like things are trending positive for him.
  17. Ron Swanson became the most popular/iconic character in Parks & Rec. The show wasn't built around him. What's a side character? That's the question. In Seinfeld, it's literally everyone outside the main 4. Same with Always Sunny (main 5). Those shows seem easy to delineate. P&R? Arrested Development? The Wire? In a true ensemble how far down do you have to go?
  18. Are these guys side characters? Not in BCS, but in BB?
  19. The Wire is even more this way. I have a really hard time calling anyone a main character. Maybe D'Angelo and Stringer? Griggs? Just too many various plot lines and entities within that universe for me to say any one character stands above.
  20. Paulie Walnuts is definitely one of the best.
  21. The only main character in Parks & Rec is Leslie. IMO. In AD it’s just Michael and maybe George Michael.
  22. Some of my favorites are already in, but...
  23. Those are sick.
