LSUTV Station Manager (and now, Label volunteer) Tim McGovern gives a gripping review of Netflix’s “Losers”. In sports, you win… or lose.

It tells the stories of various people across a multitude of sports and how they coped with the highs of victories,…

I play indie-rock when I’m playing with the band and when I’m by myself I play renditions of those songs to the best of my ability. That’s great. So, I know you are a…

The next installment of the series by Gugundeep Kaur, REWIND, focuses on a lesser known rap group that hails from Seattle. Blue Scholars are a very underrated group, especially in the UK since I don’t know anybody who has heard of them before. The group is more contemporary but their earlier music was put out over a decade ago. The duo consists of the vocals of MC Geologic (George Quibuyen) and the production power of DJ Sabzi/Prometheus Brown (Saba Mohajerjasbi). The two met at Washington University and began creating music and performing together as Blue Scholars in 2002.…

Wondering whether to go and see Captain Marvel at the cinema? Well, returning volunteer, Isaac Cave, gives his opinion on its new release. It seems fair to say that the hype around Captain Marvel has gone completely mad. Being the first Marvel film to have a female protagonist, fans have been anticipating this movie possibly more than Black Panther or Avengers Endgame. But did the film live up to the hype? No, no it didn’t. After the high expectations for the film, it was simply very mediocre. Despite the usual razzle-dazzle that Marvel puts into its CGI and marketing,…
