The movie poster for the movie "Rocketman", with Taron Egerton as Elton John in an over-the-top fantasy of a biopic. Based on the real life of Elton John, but like everything about Elton John, it's highly embellished.

Today's movie recommendation is "Rocketman", an over-the top, surrealistic Elton John "biopic" (loosely, very dramatized). To quote: "An Elton John biopic was never going to be understated, but this glittering jukebox musical goes way over the top and then keeps going." Unapologetically gay.

-- Actor William R. Moses on the current state of the industry.

U.S. Is Added to Human Rights Watchlist The United States was added Sunday to the CIVICUS Monitor Watchlist, due to declining civil liberties.

Mounting evidence that we are on the verge of a constitutional crisis.

There are definitely occasions when people are turned off at learning that when politics are brought up on our show, we have a very liberal slant.

That's OK with us, because as much as we love classic and retro entertainment, we also love speaking out about our beliefs.

Republican talking points about siding with Putin because Nato allies are not paying their share is like saying your friend owes you money and so you're joining the mob and taking his house. #nato #ukraine
