By Polo Munoz, Managing Editor/Publisher About a month ago, I decided to give myself a Netflix vacation, not a permanent one, but a short recess for 3-6 months. I love TV and Film and Radio, and anything that is enriching and creative and fun to ingest, I devour. I was beginning to feel that the stories being produced were all the same, with a different cast, so I decided to venture into Hulu and watch more of their classic TV episodes in order to try to understand what it was about them that made them classics and have become...

The Mueller Report – A Lot To See Here

Posted by | Apr 1, 2019 | , , |

By Hipolito Navarrete, Managing Editor/Publisher Mueller has delivered his report and many people are speculating what is in it. Many politicos are hoping that the content will prove their positions and many conservatives are feeling that there is vindication to their side, while liberals are focusing on what it means and what to do next. What is necessary is full transparency.

Memorial Day 2018 – It Needs To Be More Personal

Posted by | May 28, 2018 | , , , |

  Labor Day Weekend, 2015—Long Beach, California Saturday, September 5th 8am I wonder if this is what it was like for Robert Johnson after a Friday night barnburner, hobbling back to a rickety shack under the Mississippi sky…It’s too damn early for the blues, I cuss to myself aloud, parking my VW space pod in a lot behind Kohl’s at the Long Beach Towne Center. The sun is shining, it’s hot and getting nothing but hotter and I’m already breaking a sweat. For me, the landscape is a bit more urban, though entirely not out of tune with the...
