This week I talk about National Treasure. Which is a wonderful history stealing and puzzle solving adventure. I always try to not totally spoil things because I want to get you excited about experiencing whatever I'm jazzed about...this one was particularly difficult because of the nature of the movie. But if you enjoy Indiana Jones-esque adventure and problem solving this is one for you. And oh yeah. Nicolas Cage. Which...also sent me down a rabbit hole of looking up video and photos of Cage as Superman...go check that whole thing out...and I'm sorry in advance for that haha.

This week I'm talking about Eurovision! I cover a little bit of history, how Eurovision works, and highlight a few acts. It was hard to contain my excitement.
