COMEDY—His Fox sitcom might get cancelled soon, but don’t let that deter you from seeing the great John Mulaney. His work with SNL was exemplary (you can also catch him on Kroll Show), and his stand-up is a hilarious combo platter of adorableness and acerbic comedy. He’s one of those few comics who can be funny without being a jerk about it. WM. STEVEN HUMPHREY

BOOKS—I’m still mad that Claudia Rankine didn’t win the 2014 National Book Award after her incredibly deserving Citizen was snubbed in favor of more traditional fare. Rankine writes poetry that doesn’t seem like poetry, and she writes about race in America better than anyone. Soak up her brilliance while you have the chance. MEGAN BURBANK

my ex Brad and I broke up. I felt lost, confused and devastated and all I knew is I had to have Brad back. A piece of me was missing without him. After doing some research I found out about kizzekpespells@outlook.com“: The ONLY Way to Get Him Back & Create the Life Together You KNOW is Meant to be!. and I’m pleased to tell you IT WORKED!! Today, Brad and I are back together and we are more happy than ever. Our life together is everything I ever dreamed about as we are now engaged to be married in Las Vegas next month. I can’t even imagine what my life would have been like if I didn’t get Brad back. Recover My Lover was worth every penny and I highly recommend it to anyone out there looking to get an ex back in their life.” email;kizzekpespells@outlook.com here is my email valentinohill5000@gmail.com if you want to discuss about him with me
