Last Call: Oma's spiced red wine and a YouTube treasure trove of historic concerts
　　Oma’s spiced red wine 　　It seems like the entire world north of, say, Atlanta will be frozen this weekend. Here in Missoula, we’re expecting a foot of snow overnight, so I’ve readied supplies for glühwein, my hot booze of choice this winter. I was on a bourbon-spiked cider kick last...

Last Call: The Rock, eggs, and red rain
　　Jumanji 2 　　Of all the many movies I saw with the kids over break, there was one that was just a perfect popcorn movie: not about to win any awards, but wholly entertaining. Yes, I really can’t recommend Jumanji 2: Welcome To The Jungle highly enough if you are looking...

Last Call: A German Wild West board game and new Neutrogena
　　Colt Express 　　Nerd alert: I’ve gotten a bit more into board games this winter, since my backyard is a frozen tundra and scraping ice off the car to leave the house seems a Sisyphean task. I’ve recently discovered Colt Express, a German board game set in the (American) Wild West—complete...

Last Call: Nick Offerman, Drew Barrymore, and off-key Toto
　　Will and Grace and Nick Offerman 　　I have had my ups and downs with NBC’s Will And Grace return, but last night’s episode was a great one, the first to make me LOL since the show’s vintage days. A lot of the magic is due to guest star Nick Offerman,...

Last Call: A track and a book to ponder life's big questions
　　“They Move On Tracks Of Never-Ending Light” 　　This, from the Texas instrumental group They Will Destroy You, is the type of music that makes you lay on the hood of your car, stare up into the night sky, and ponder all the questions life throws your way. 　　Taking The Leap...

Last Call: Lil Jon on ice, Words With Friends 2, and relaxing long train rides
　　“Turn Down For What” ... on ice! 　　I heard about this figure skating routine on an NPR segment yesterday about the changes to figure skating bylaws that will allow skaters to perform to songs with lyrics in them; naturally, I wanted to watch this for myself. Jimmy Ma skates to...

Last Call: The Good Place and a crazy-ass cold remedy
　　The Good Place 　　Just a quick reminder to check out The A.V. Club’s number one TV show of 2017, if you haven’t already: The Good Place is the only sitcom ever where you can complete crack up over a Kierkegaard punchline. The show brilliantly utilizes its afterlife setting as a...

Last Call: R.E.M. redux, coffee for dog lovers, The Simpsons writers reunion
　　Rediscovering R.E.M. 　　I occasionally fall down a Spotify wormhole here at work, and a recent video spurred on a whole new/old obsession. I wrote about the fact that three out our four of the original members of R.E.M. reunited last week at a benefit for Portland musician Scott McCaughey, resulting...

Last Call: A long week calls for bourbon and Gilmore Girls
　　Bourbon! 　　You know what this week calls for? Bourbon. A friend recently gifted me a bottle of Jefferson’s Reserve Kentucky bourbon and instantly became my new favorite person. I get a ton of rum-like brown sugar and vanilla out of the nose, which carry through on the ultra-smooth sip as...

Last Call: Midwest cemetery prairies and the activist cook behind the civil rights movement
　　Midwest cemetery prairies 　　Don’t ask what rabbit hole led me to discover this In Defense of Plants podcast about the unexpected ecological benefit of pioneer cemeteries. But check it out: Pioneer cemeteries remained unpaved and undisturbed for hundreds of years, meaning that they’re some of the last remaining refuges of...

Last Call: Phantom Thread's soundtrack and a killer new novel about a nanny
　　The Perfect Nanny 　　After reading Lauren Collins’ piece abut French author Leila Slimani’s Goncourt Prize-winning novel in the New Yorker—“The Killer-Nanny Novel That Conquered France,”—I immediately pre-ordered the book’s English translation, released earlier this month. The Perfect Nanny opens with line more reminiscent of The Stranger: “The baby is dead.”...

Last Call: Going old school with a snail-mail service and a non-digital book
　　PunkpostI love snail mail: choosing cards, writing them, receiving them, every bit of it. So I’m conflicted in my feelings about Punkpost, an app/service that hand-writes and mails cards for you. It’s neat that the company works with letterpress artists and has real, live people writing out your cards. On...

Last Call: Strangers With Candy, Chicago's greatest food courier, Girls Generation
　　Strangers With Candy 　　It’s recently come to my attention that not every person on earth has seen Strangers with Candy, an amazing early-2000s show starring Amy Sedaris and a young Stephen Colbert. The show lasted a tragically short three seasons, but it lives on in DVD form. As I’ve lately...
