Because of our shift toward making better decisions (still not good decisions, but better ones), we […]
Shakespeare Dallas never ceases to amaze us with their creative interpretations of the bard’s works. The troupe is known for changing settings, time periods and gender swapping characters to the delight of its outdoor audiences.

Yet it’s true. This September the fabulously […]

That’s not the case, according to Gloria J. Browne-Marshall, author of A Protest History of the United States. Tomorrow night, join this brilliant woman for an […]
For those worn smooth by the wall-to-wall and floor-to-ceiling coverage of the Epstein scandal, here’s a barely newsworthy item that hit my radar that we might have some fun talking about.
