  • The Billy Madison Theory

    Who was Billy’s Mother? I have a somewhat dark theory I concocted after a recent viewing of Billy Madison. In the film, I don’t believe his mother is ever referenced or addressed.

  • Why I Stayed In A Toxic Work Environment

    We’ve all had jobs we’ve hated, loved, or simply tolerated. My first long-term job began when I was 17—a dream role at a small, independent business.

  • Tim Heidecker

    My wife and I went to Tim’s show in Madison, WI yesterday and we had an absolute blast. Wonderful mix of comedy, sad music, and rock music. Special guest Neil Hamburger put on a great set. It was my first time visiting the Majestic and it’s a lovely theater. The staff were very friendly and
