Parker as pop star in The Studio Job is extra fantastic in an episode full of fantastic moments
Two Live Crew Job, which has always been a favorite, is extra delightful on this watch!
Also, last time I watched Leverage, I still hadn't seen any Star Trek... Riker directs! And briefly appears as a hospital patient!

authors, please annoy me with book posts! I want them! I need things for my brain to chew on that aren't just The Horrors, please!

Usually I don't market my own books here even though this is where I have the most contact with people. I kind of do a couple of posts on tiktok and even fewer on instagram
but it is time to leave tiktok
instagram isn't really any better
do I start annoying you all with book posts?
