What is it that draws fans to Superman? The character, and several related TV shows/movies, are what I would consider “comfort food”. When I was sick not too long ago, and stuck at home- able to watch anything – I put on Smallville and got lost in the healing powers of Clark Kent.

I spent some time Inside of You
29 AugSo… I am not a fan of podcasts. I know. You are wondering how that could be. But honestly, it’s the talking heads things… it bores me. Doesn’t matter the topic.

When I was forced to listen to audio recordings while studying, I did so while gardening (pulling weeds) or going for walks. Something. And yes, I know there are a lot of podcasts that you can watch on youtube etc, but it’s still boring. If I’m gonna watch something, I want it to be actiony or funny, or colorful or something!

We’ll touch on the good and bad in a bit. Continue reading
ARROW Season 1 rewatch, Ep. 2, “Honor Thy Father” / Ep. 3, “Lone Gunmen”
9 JunWelcome back to the rewatch, Arrowheads! We started off with introducing Oliver Queen back to the world after being missing & presumed dead for five years. But he came back with a mission: to bring justice on the criminals who have corrupted his hometown of Starling City.

ARROW Season 1 rewatch, Ep. 1: “Pilot”
1 JunWelcome, Arrowheads! As many longtime NerdLush readers are aware, I started recapping Arrow here around season two, but for a while now, have wanted to go back and recap the first season. With season five now over (and a significant part of Oliver Queen’s story ended), it seemed like the best time to go back and revisit Arrow season one. Continue reading
