The best way to get in the spooky spirit is by watching nostalgic Halloween specials. The most iconic run of Halloween specials during my childhood was Disney Channel’s “Monstober.” If you miss having a section of TV specifically for this holiday, then this list of top 10 Disney Halloween episodes might be for you.
I’m a person who firmly believes that there’s a playlist for every occasion, especially when that occasion involves anything fall. Whether you’re studying on campus or curled up in your room, this playlist provides the perfect vibes for yearning, reflecting on the changing seasons and coming to terms with the cold suddenly plaguing the air. Here are some of my favorite songs out of the 35 (which are all amazing).
Taylor Swift dropped her highly anticipated 12th studio album, “The Life of a Showgirl,” on Oct. 3, and I haven’t been the same since.Full of cheeky double entendres, glitter-gel-pen pop and high-profile interpolations, this album is a sharp departure from her more melancholy previous release, "The Tortured Poets Department.” It’s also everything I could want out of an album, especially one Swift said came from an “infectiously joyful, wild, dramatic place.”
The glamorous Sabrina Carpenter that many know and adore today didn’t dazzle her way into the spotlight. Before all of the press, photoshoots and partnerships, acting was how she earned her livelihood.
The first time I attended a Twenty One Pilots concert was in 2017 at the KFC Yum! Center in Kentucky for their “Emotional Roadshow World Tour.” I was 11 years old.Now, at 20 years old, I have seen them five times. You could say I’m a dedicated fan.Twenty One Pilots kicked off “The Clancy Tour: Breach” on Sept. 18 at TQL Stadium in Cincinnati. The band’s eighth album, “Breach,” was released on Sept. 12, with the tour starting almost a week later.
Welcome back! Once again, my music taste is all over the place, but I’ve compiled some of the tracks I’ve been listening to for the past few weeks into this piece.I finally started listening to something new, which is a huge development for me. Unfortunately, it is a musical. But, it’s a musical I had never listened to until recently, so I’m taking that as a win. Talk about character development.
I couldn’t resist the pun. Here are five books that will hopefully bring about crisp breezes and warm sweaters this October.
Popular culture is an entity that is continuously evolving as time goes on. Music has a tremendous influence on culture, and they often change together.When we reflect on influential moments in musical culture, our minds first travel back to early 20th-century music. Or, back to arguably the most iconic period of music history: the 1960s. This is when society began its transition from traditional purity culture into an age of rock, free thinking and revolution.
The second night of Conan Gray’s “The Wishbone Pajama Show” was an outstanding performance of emotional music, beautiful production, and glamorous costumes. On Sept. 13, Gray took the stage at Riverbend Music Center in Cincinnati.The atmosphere was electric — the crowd matched Gray’s stage presence through their adherence to the show’s theme.
Fifty young men. One, long, long road. Every time one’s speed dips below three miles per hour, they’re issued a warning. Three warnings, and a person gets a ticket. In the end, only one remains. The Major (Mark Hamill), a grizzled army man who heads the Long Walk, tells the contestants as much in the opening minutes of the movie.
Within the past two decades, trends have been seemingly repeating themselves — even more so with rapid technological advances and references toward nostalgia. In 2017, 1980s-esque windbreakers and scrunchies were trend highlights; 2020 brought back “Y2K;” I even wrote about 2014 Tumblr fashion in 2022. Now, 2025 is reviving 2013.
If there is one thing that you should know about me, it’s that I was a Greek mythology addict as a kid and, quite frankly, I still am.If there is one thing that you should know about me, it’s that I was a Greek mythology addict as a kid and, quite frankly, I still am.I would spend countless hours watching YouTube videos that ranged from the gods’ family tree to the most niche stories about random demigods and their adventures. However, once that obsession had started, it couldn’t be stopped, and I quickly ran out of things to watch. That was until I heard about the many books that recount new as well as classic myths.So, I give you some of my favorite books based on Greek mythology.
If you survived my first “In the editor’s rotation” column, welcome back! If this is your first time reading about the music I listen to… good luck.Unfortunately, it’s still mostly showtunes. I am ever so slightly (majorly) reentering my Broadway phase from seventh grade, and since my last column, it has only gotten worse. But don’t let that scare you away — I’m hoping at least one song on this list is tolerable enough to make it onto one person’s playlist.
After coming off the blowout success of the smash single “Call Me Maybe,” Carly Rae Jepsen released her third studio album, “Emotion,” on Aug. 21, 2015. This year, the album is celebrating its 10th anniversary.
My “Addams Family” credentials include the following: an obsession with the original movie, a longing for a romance like Morticia and Gomez and, obviously, my position as the smart, eldest daughter in my family with a fervently protective watch over my slightly idiotic younger brother.I loved season one of “Wednesday,” even watching it twice; so naturally, I binged all of season two in one sitting once it was released.
