 | IMAGE FROM POKÉMON GO | POKÉMON GO HAS SOME SPECIAL BOXES IN THE SHOP FOR THE HOLIDAYS, and you probably want to know which, if any, you should buy before they disappear at midnight on January 5th, 2018. In short, all the Holiday Special Boxes are a good deal, but one of them is the best deal. So Which Holiday Special Box Should You Buy? To figure that out, we need to go through the standard Shop item pricing. So here we go. Where possible, I’ve analyzed each Holiday Special Box...

THIS EPISODE PICKS UP RIGHT WHERE THE LAST ONE LEFT OFF, giving us more backstory on Vincent, and, as you can tell from the title, Simon. Last episode was a bit of an information overload. We learned a lot about Vincent through flashbacks made possible by Marcy’s recovered memories. This episode features memories from another character which help to put a few more pieces of information together. I don’t want to say more here, so suffice to say that Vincent features prominently in...

 THIS IS PROBABLY THE MOST DISTURBING EPISODE OF TRAVELERS YET, but, hot on the heels of last week’s episode, it proved to be another one of my favorites. The cast and crew are on a roll, and this episode we get to see MacKenzie Porter convincingly play several different versions of Marcy without breaking a sweat. This episode gets into some Vincent stuff that’s too complicated to even introduce. Read on to share in my confusion. Spoilers ahead! Full Episode Gallery Full Episode...

THIS WAS ONE OF MY FAVORITE EPISODES OF TRAVELERS, but it’s also pretty unpleasant. Last episode, one of the key agents of the Faction was destroyed, the quantum frame was finally dealt with, and we got to meet the Director, in… persons. With all that taken care of, you might think the Team is on an uptrend. Well, sometimes it seems that the Team loses as much as they win. Spoilers ahead!

 | IMAGE FROM STARBUCKS.COM | WE’VE JUST RECEIVED WORD THAT BLONDE ESPRESSO IS COMING TO THE USA SOMETIME IN JANUARY, and we’ve been told it’s unlike anything Starbucks has ever offered. What is Starbucks Blonde Espresso? You may be familiar with the Starbucks Blonde Roasts (currently the “Veranda” and “Willow” blends) available as drip-brewed coffee and beans in Starbucks locations since 2012. Well, the new Starbuck Blonde Espresso Roast...

| IMAGE FROM STARWARS.COM | WHEN I SAW RIAN JOHNSON WAS DIRECTING STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (2017), I knew we were in for something different. Well, that’s what we got. About the Acting The acting in this film was solid. One of the few new faces to the main cast was Kelly Marie Tran playing Rose Tico, who I can’t say anything about without giving something away. Suffice to say, she was unexpected, and did well in her role. The actors introduced in The Force Awakens (2015),...

   MR. ROBOT CREATOR SAM ESMAIL HAS CONFIRMED that Mr. Robot has been renewed for a fourth season by USA Network. This news comes hours before the Season 3 finale, and thank goodness. There’s no way all of our questions will be answered by the final episode of Season 3, so I’m happy to know that I will have the security blanket of knowing there’s more to come during the inevitable distress I’ll be feeling after watching it. Calm down everyone. #MrRobot season_4.0...

At these prices, you can hardly lose, and Destiny 2 is a really new game. As you probably already know, Nintendo sales are rare. If you can get any...
