Tek is back and we talk a lot about camping and being outside. What it is like but also how geeks do it sometimes.

Paul looks at The Rockford Files Season Two Episode 9 “Chicken Little is a Little Chicken” and The Magician Episode 2 “The Vanishing Lady.” In the former, he looks at an actor in the episode playing a gangster in a return to his earlier typecast, and a couple shooting details. In The second episode, Paul looks at an actor and performer who later became best known as a songwriter. He also checks out the Las Vegas setting before going in-depth at Circus Circus. Can you guess where real gangsters will appear? There are also fictional ones.
Paul launches into the next episodes in these series, Seeing Things Season 2, Episode 5 “Eyes Too Big For His Stomach,” and Press Gang Series 1, Episode 8 “How to Make a Killing, Part 2.” There’s a Louis/Marlon teamup and yet Paul still hasn’t profiled the actor who plays Marlon? Now is that fair? Well, it’s because a guest star was in another Canadian property Paul has looked at in the past, so it’s understandable. In the conclusion of the Press Gang two-parter, Paul checks out another core cast member. And between the two shows, there are looks at a large candy bar and a German owned UK version of a French magazine.
Spring is here and I’m shaking off the winter funk with a little honesty and a lot of heart. I’ve been in a weird low energy season, but I’m finally starting to feel that spark again. Enough to kick off a May Art challenge and chat about why it’s totally OK to have off days or off months. This episode isn’t heavy. It’s about finding the awesome in small steps, tiny wins, and giving ourselves room to be human. Come join me for a cozy real talk episode with a happy little reset button built in.
