One of the best social media exchanges I’ve seen in quite a while took place earlier this evening between white nationalist “it” boy Richard Spencer, and Jason Kander, the former Secretary of State of Missouri. As best as I can figure it, it all started with an online dustup between Spencer and Talking Points Memo […]

Ypsi Immigration Interview: Jeff “Shappy” Seasholtz

As we’ve been posting a lot of exit interviews lately, I though that we’d mix things up a bit and post an interview with someone who, like me, consciously chose to return to Ypsilanti.

The Patti Smith Group’s Ivan Král on the origins of punk, Anne Brown on her platform for the Michigan House, and restaurant owner Bee Roll on her bumpy, awesome year… on episode 39 of the Saturday Six Pack

Ypsi/Arbor Exit Interview: Vikram Bastian

Next Thursday, assuming I can keep the panic attacks at bay, I’ll be conducting live exit interviews in front of a raucous, beer-swilling crowd at Conor O’Neills, as part of Concentrate Media’s moderately-distinguished speaker series.

M.O.T.O. at the Dreamland Theater June 9

This guy that I know is putting together a show at the Dreamland Theater next Thursday night, and, as it involves a band that I feel as though I should probably know, I thought that I’d pass it along. The band is M.O.T.O. (Masters Of The Obvious), and, according to what I’m told, they’ve been […]
