I saw your Cheer Squad vid. Obviously it didn't compel me to watch. When you recommended it I started watching Cheer! but stopped. It felt creepy and weird, and like I was a stereotype dirty old man. A while later it came up again on Nerdrotic, so I tried again and finally got past the initial weirdness - and was rewarded. Expertly presented. As was Tiger King, something else altogether.

Indeed. Andy Warhol said something about 15 minutes. MTV made it 15 seconds. Now it's 1.5 seconds, while multitasking.

I'm guessing you might already have seen many of these, but there might be something of interest you haven't...

Movie lists by topic, not all recommendable, but their scores on IMDb can indicate their quality:

I didn't watch/rewatch them all when adding them to these lists, nor have I bothered to actually review them as movies, and obviously there are a lot of blanks for notes about why they belong on the list.

If you write up reviews, comments, or other notes for any of the items in those lists I'd be happy to add your thoughts, with credit, or without, or just join InfoGalactic and contribute directly.

Book lists:

Above all: "The CIA As Organized Crime: How Illegal Operations Corrupt America And The World" by Douglas Valentine

Not on those lists:

Also, for your edutainment, should you seek it, my fave source for "friendly" content (though my wish list at the bottom remains largely unrequited, likely due to not being recent releases): https://infogalactic.com/info/Tigole.

If you're interested I could dig up my fave movies list I wrote to a friend last year. Perhaps you might find some new ones, perhaps worthy of review/promotion. And if you can gleen the essence of why I love those movies, maybe you can recommend some new to me. Or we could just swap notes, or riff, or whatever.

Thanks for Hide And Seek. Love your voice and accent. Ever consider animation?

Wow thanks man, a lot to take in. I will have a read through and explore your links. I am always down for watching / reading anything and love weird shit if its done right.

As for my accent, I am a New Zealander who has lived in Australia for over 10 years so its a bit of a mishmash these days! I have made some animations on my channel, but they are just silly joke things (the Toe Jam Football one is my favourite):
