Today, I'm talking about something that’s both ancient and ever-present: cultural evolution — how societies change, grow, and pass their values from one generation to the next.

Basic biography of Def Leppard. + some of my thoughts.

I speak with Kyle Weingart about his quirky comedy "Cuisine de la 'Pocalypse."

That movie's premise: "After the world ends, one aspiring chef refuses to give up on his dreams and creates the apocalypse's first cooking show."

Stars: Kevin Jack, Nelo Butler, Zuzu Weingart, Natasha Leggero, and Kevin Sorbo.

I look at the Trump administration's love of death and destruction, as well as the death of the plainly villainous and corrupt Dick Cheney, who was another purveyor of mass death and destruction...who I am supposed to respect right now just because he kicked the bucket.

Today we’re revisiting the Granada Television series The Return of Sherlock Holmes, beginning with Season 1, Episode 1: “The Empty House.”
