Watching 31 spooky movies during October has become an integral part of my life. I’ve been doing it so long that I genuinely can’t imagine the fall season without it. Like, I don’t think I’d be able to stay up-to-date on all the amazing horror movies (or play catch-up on some that I’d missed) withoutContinue reading “31 Movies in 31 Days 2025”

A PAX Upon Your House
In 2019, I was deep into trying to make wrestling happen. I was focused on doing extra work for WWE and trying to wrestle as frequently as possible. The blinders I put on during this time prevented me from connecting with old friends or cultivating a life outside of the squared circle. That said, IContinue reading “A PAX Upon Your House”
Grappling with Modern Customer Service
In a professional setting, customer service also applies to coworkers and business partners. Good customer service includes treating everyone with respect and helping them feel welcome and safe. Failure to do so generally leads to corrective action. This should also be the case in professional wrestling. The term “customer” can apply to many stakeholders inContinue reading “Grappling with Modern Customer Service”
31 Movies in 31 Days 2024
Another year, another marathon of spooky movies in October. 2024, like the last couple of years, has been really strong for horror. I’ve used these marathons to catch up on all the goodies I missed throughout the year. I was stoked to check out new stuff like In A Violent Nature, Lisa Frankenstein, I SawContinue reading “31 Movies in 31 Days 2024”
Tales of the Kingdom: A Zelda Postmortem
I’ve forgotten more than I’ll ever remember about my experience with The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, but the arguably much-improved sequel to what is widely considered to be one of the best games of all time took up many hours of playtime, a full year of real-time (well, it took a yearContinue reading “Tales of the Kingdom: A Zelda Postmortem”
Running Too Much
In my last blog, I wrote about revisiting past attempts to improve, reevaluating what worked and what didn’t, to achieve a more favorable result. That blog was meant to hype me up for my second ultramarathon–my second 50K–so I could improve upon my previous race. I mentioned in that blog that one can look atContinue reading “Running Too Much”
Running for a Longer Time
One trick for getting into the right headspace to complete a difficult challenge–facing down a previous failure or looking to improve from an earlier success–is to revisit the previous attempts. In the past, I’ve used this blog to share my experiences training for and completing marathons. From Seattle to Walt Disney World, and even toContinue reading “Running for a Longer Time”
Toys to Life 4 Lyfe
It’s the end of an era. The Sora Amiibo was released on February 16th, 2024, almost a decade after the first wave of Smash Bros Amiibo–the first Amiibo ever–dropped, closing the book on arguably the most important series within this popular Nintendo franchise and maybe even the concept as a whole. Amiibo are what someContinue reading “Toys to Life 4 Lyfe”
Six Things Pokemon Fans Should Be Excited About in 2024
Hey y’all! I’ve been trying to branch out a little recently, so I applied for an opportunity to write about Pokemon. Unfortunately, I was not picked to move forward, but the process did give me a chance to write something a little different than I am used to as a writing sample. Since I putContinue reading “Six Things Pokemon Fans Should Be Excited About in 2024”
The Number 2023
I’ve been so bad about keeping up with blogs, streams, and podcasts lately. I still owe you a blog about my first ultramarathon experience. Unless something drastic happens between now and when(ever) I write my next blog, I’ll get to that next. While I’ll touch on the 50K in this blog, it will not beContinue reading “The Number 2023”
