The 2013 Bobby-james Awards: Best of Television
Let’s get the obvious out of the way, 2013 was a great year for television. From online subscribers and original programming (ex. House of Cards on Netflix) to big networks and premium cable programming (ex. Masters of Sex on Showtime), television was sexy, bloody, edgy, fun, dark, and thrilling – after all, everyone’s competing for advertising revenue,…
The 2013 Bobby-james Awards: Music + Top 50 Songs
This year I’ve introduced you to Radio Bobby – but that wasn’t until this past summer. Radio Bobby is my way of sharing what I think are the week’s best new music releases – but that has no indication on how things wind up for a Top 50 countdown at the end of the year. …
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (12/9)
Forgive me for the consistent time lapses between Radio Bobby posts! Some weeks, I’m not finding five new releases that I like enough, or care enough about, to create a Radio Bobby list – and other weeks, I find myself too lost in Lady GaGa or Christmas music to care. Invalid excuses, I know. So…
The 2013 Bobby-james Awards: Best of the WWE
Welcome to the first installment of the 2013 Bobby-james Awards – the Best of WWE. Released in conjunction with the WWE Slammy Awards, I have selected the performers, matches, and moments that have been – how would Triple H or Stephanie McMahon say it again? … right, “best for business,” throughout 2013. I realize that we…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 New Music Releases (11/18)
An apocalyptic takeover of Radio Bobby by Lady GaGa’s ARTPOP left last week’s new music releases out in the cold (hey, it snowed here last week – so they were literally left out in the cold!). So this week, I’ll be using my Top 5 format to rank new music from this week and last week. …
Servers: speak out and stand up!
At various points in my life (and currently) I have waited tables. Trust me when I say, there is never a dull moment – and there is never a shortage of trash that happens into your section from time to time (ex. I was once tipped 77 cents on a bill totaling $40.23 – how…
Radio Bobby: Top 5 ARTPOP songs
Radio Bobby goes GaGa! I know I’m posting late this week (and in fact, I haven’t posted in a LONG TIME) so I figured I’d dedicate this edition or Radio Bobby to ARTPOP! Let me start by saying that I’ve had a mixed reaction to Mother Monster’s most recent effort. Previously, I’ve found myself rushing…
