@popvulture yeah I’m getting one and some tests I read about in Outlive that are not (but should be) part of our preventative protocols. Meaning I’ll have to pay out of pocket.

The scans seem to be we’ll under $100

[popvulture]

@mclaincausey that’s good to know — I figured they’d be out of pocket, but also thought they’d cost a lot more since they’re sort of a lite CT scan.

True Detective and Mr & Mrs Smith on Amazon are our current appointment shows right now. Both are excellent.

[mclaincausey]

@popvulture as far as that goes, and I’ll shut up on this topic to keep the thread integrity, a CT angiogram is a few hundred dollars but I’m tempted to do that to understand my coronary arteries better. Calcium scoring is really cheap but not quite as good. Dexa isn’t a helical scanner with a gigantic rotating gantry so it’s far less expensive equipment and presumable operation as well

Both of those are on our radar @Matt .

@T4920 I really enjoyed it as well and was equally unaware of this collective

When Roger Waters thinks someone's personality is insufferable that's really saying something.....

My wife and I started Criminal Record the other night. Only seen 2 episodes but really enjoying it.

This made me snort! I need to watch that doc — I’ve got a rad Hipgnosis coffee table book that’s pretty rad. Highly recommended if it’s still easy to track down.

Just finished watching Bupkus on Peacock. It’s worth it for Joe Pesci alone,and John Mulaney in episode 7 is just great. Better than his scene in The Bear. Pete Davidson is Pete Davidson,and if you don’t like him,you still won’t like him. Edie Falco as his mother is another plus!

TD: Night Country was great tonight! Liking this season a lot more than 2 and 3. It’s gonna be hard for anything to come close to season 1 tho; it’s probably my favorite single season of TV

[popvulture]

Yeah I totally agree — S1 is pretty untouchable TV, but Night Country’s really good so far, definitely the second best. Can’t wait for Sunday’s new ep.

[Sir_Cuffs-a-Lot]

Boy Swallows Universe is pretty awesome.

[jiminstitches]

Four episodes in on Masters of Air, What does everyone think?

After hearing everyone talking about Fargo here I've binged the first 3 seasons and though it was amazing! Is season 4 gonna be as good?!

Im super excited to start Night Country!

[mclaincausey]

@jiminstitches I enjoyed all Fargo seasons but found 4 to be the weakest of them and 5 to be among the best.

[popvulture]

That was an insane True Detective last night!

[mclaincausey]

Ok, CBS. I guess I’m just out of the loop on Must See TV.

Also, “phrasing?!”

[popvulture]

Haha man, as someone who cusses like a sailor, even I find that pretty coarse.

[Nocturama]

Am I right in thinking that I can dive straight into TD S4 - Night Country without having seen S1-3, or is there mileage in going through them in order? TIA

[popvulture]

@Nocturama oh no, definitely start from the beginning. It’d probably be pretty damn murky starting at 4 (also this season only has 6).

[popvulture]

Oh damn @Nocturama never mind I thought you meant episodes.

The seasons are all standalone, so yep dive in.

[jiminstitches]

@Nocturama a id definitely watch season 1 though, as it is epic!
