    Christone “Kingfish” Ingram: Reinvigorating traditional blues

    There’s always someone new who comes along to refresh an old genre. This seems to happen to the blues every so often. I listen to many different genres, and blues is one of them. I don’t listen to a lot of blues artists, and it has been a while since I found another one I…

    The Idiocy of the No Kings Protests

    The so-called “No Kings” protesters were out again shouting slogans, waving signs, and pretending they’re saving democracy.
