X-Men: The Animated Series
Let’s be honest, X-Men: The Animated Series made the Marvel Cinematic Universe what it is. If this show didn’t exist, they’re would have been far less hype over the X-Men movie in 2000. This show was amazing from the theme song, to every plot line. We love and miss it.

The Managerial Revolution
There are few books that have had such a large influence on my life. The Managerial Revolution by James Burnham is one of the few that have changed my life's trajectory entirely. It is a fascinating, insightful, and contemporaneous look at the conflict between Fascism, Communism, and the New Deal.

Extremely Bad
Have you ever been asked, “What’s the worst book you’ve read?” I am often asked this when people find out my passion for literature. I always answer the same: Extreme Ownership by Jocko Willink. This book is exhaustingly unreadable. I stopped after the second chapter. I want my time back.

The Menu at my local Wetherspoons
Their dishes displayed in attempt to seduce with their low prices and wide range, yet I can’t help but notice the promise to have my order on the table a mere ten minutes after I order and worry how they intend to cook the meat. I order anyway, of course.

The Wager: A tale of shipwreck, mutiny and murder
The Wager is a book about a boat called The Wager. It’s a good book and they’re planning on turning it into a movie. It’s about an aggressive captain. The crew hates him and mutiny’s against him, and the mutineers kill anyone loyal to him. It is a true story.

Critique: A Song of Ice and Fire
A testament to the belief that quantity cannot beat quality, George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire is full of details and information that bog readers down rather than contribute to worldbuilding, plot advancement, and maintaining character development instead of deciding to throw it away in the end.
