Handmaids Tale

New season dropped last week.

While the entire series has been largely aimed at evangelicals, I find it odd that said evangelicals are also climate crazies.

Most modern media embraces the reality of rhetoric that aligns with the zeitgeist. It’s at least a bit odd that god fearing zealots would be so enthusiastic about climate control and banging girls at Jezebels. It’s a weird commentary on current affairs.

Is there a risk of religious zealots taking the country over? No. They lack the stones. At the same time, it’s an interesting discourse on what might happen in the future. How many here would have an issue with what goes on in that series?

Off Season Hot Take: “The greatest tradition in the history of college basketball”

Every game at Rupp Arena for as long as I remember the PA announcer declares “Home of the greatest tradition in the history of college basketball”.

Here’s the thing. I think it’s true but announcing this makes it seem like we aren’t in confident in it. We shouldn’t have to tell people it’s the greatest tradition in the history of college basketball.

It’s be like Tom Cruise introducing himself as a “good looking straight man”. At some point, you’ve gotta start to wonder about Tom. That’s Al I’m saying.

Best Vinyl Records To Get?

I'm working on building up a Dolby Atmos audio setup. While doing that, I figured I'd look into getting a turntable and building up a record collection. I grew up with the end of 8 track tapes into the start of cassette tapes and never really collected albums. I tried one of those cheap suitcase players but it sucked. I was at Walmart yesterday and found an Audio-Technica AT-LPGO-BT. It was on sale for like $127 ($30 off). It sounds pretty good with my new Sony 7.1.2 AVR.

Well so far, I have 2 albums I got with it. The first was Motley Crue's Greatest Hits. I also grabbed Michael Jackson's Thriller. I ordered Beatles 1 off Amazon and should get it tonight or tomorrow. They're all remastered versions and that's fine. I saw Prince and the Revolution Purple Rain and probably will grab that one. Maybe will look into The Beach Boys and Chicago's Greatest Hits from 82-89.

What are some recommendations of other must have albums to get? I prefer to get greatest hits albums or maybe if there are some good compilation albums with various artists on them. My favorite era is the 80's and 90's but listen to some other decades. Pretty much anything but country (just not my thing).

Travis and David…..Acaden Lewis question

I don’t follow Acaden‘s father on X but I’ve seen several of his replies to Kentucky fans over the last few days primarily in response to the Jordan Brand game. He seems to still love Pope and seems to really be a fan of Kentucky under Pope’s guidance. The way he speaks just makes the decommitment even that much more bizarre. Was there something else going on behind the scenes leading up to this or was it truly just a playing time/Lowe commitment reason? Did it take Pope by surprise?
