I spent 14 months following high-risk and disabled people through the COVID-19 pandemic in New Jersey, from before vaccines to the lifting of the mask mandate, the delta surge and third doses. Please hear them. nj.com/coronavirus/20… #covid #highrisk #disabled #chronicillness

Charlie Puth just welcomed his first child, Jude, with wife Brooke. Days before the baby arrived, we talked about his new album "Whatever's Clever." He shared thoughts on parenthood, his emergence from being "cringe" & his old pal: New Jersey. njmonthly.com/articles/jerse… @charlieputh

great, now whenever someone mentions Sara Bareilles I think of that sizable animal carcass / multiple animal remains ... why didn't I click away?

Is it too late for Afroman to get an EGOT for best original songs based on an original trial? #LemonPoundcake

To modify the oft-quoted trend: "Mom, what were you like in the '80s?" Talked to Kerri Green about "The Goonies" and the coming sequel. She was cast as cheerleader Andy when she was an actual New Jersey cheerleader. At @NJPAC Fri w/ Corey Feldman: njmonthly.com/articles/arts-… #Goonies

Re-upping this story after Michael B. Jordan's Oscar win for "Sinners." Jordan is an alum of Newark Arts High. Now Newark Public Schools is planning a new high school aimed at fostering careers in film and TV. #Oscars #MichaelBJordan #Sinners #Newark

What a joy to see Michael B. Jordan & Ryan Coogler win Oscars. "Sinners" came out last April but had more staying power than many films. I know that will continue. Michael has been so gracious in talking to me for stories over the years. Speaking to Michael and Ryan was the best.

Autumn Durald Arkapaw just made so much history. #Sinners #Oscars

When Misty came out that was chef's kiss! #Oscars

Call Jane, 🏹

I’m at the star studded Warner Bros Oscar party, where David Zaslav just made a lengthy speech paying tribute to ONE BATTLE and SINNERS… while weirdly omitting WEAPONS, even though Oscar frontrunner Amy Madigan and director Zach Cregger are right here, too.

Don't call it a comeback (NJ's film industry is very old!), but Newark will have a school dedicated to film, TV / related roles next to Lionsgate's studio. I talked to film educators, students, stakeholders & industry pros: chalkbeat.org/newark/2026/03… @official_noftv @NJMotionPicture

Seems like a good reason to re-up my interview with John C. McGinley for "Rooster," where he plays ... himself. njmonthly.com/articles/arts-… #Rooster #JohnCMcGinley

ok what award does this get Sunday? youtube.com/watch?v=qqdEfS…

For Mahmoud Khalil, this past year has been marked by profound hardship—and by profound courage. A year ago, Mahmoud was walking home through our city after sharing an iftar with his wife Noor when he was detained by federal agents, flown to Louisiana, and then held in an ICE facility for months. In that time, he was forced to miss the birth of his first child. All of this for exercising his First Amendment rights in protesting the ongoing genocide in Palestine. And yet, even in the face of that cruelty, there has also been beauty. New Yorkers raising their voices in solidarity. A city refusing to look away. Mahmoud won his freedom, and a father was finally reunited with his child. Last night, as we marked the one year anniversary of his detention, Rama and I were honored to welcome Mahmoud, Noor, and their son Deen to Gracie Mansion to break our fast together. Mahmoud is a New Yorker, and he belongs in New York City.

The way the internet is undefeated at making me hear songs I haven't heard since 2003 or so youtube.com/watch?v=Hx6WuG…

@RachelLeishman fully endorse watching it though!

I saw someone say you can't call yourself a Cillian Murphy fan if you haven't watched all of Peaky Blinders and in that moment, I realized that I am too old for this fight (Imagine thinking a show made in 2013 is why people know Cillian Murphy)

Anachronistic lighting, creative IMAX format choices and using an LED wall as a drive-in movie screen: cinematographer Lawrence Sher shares how the stunning imagery in Maggie Gyllenhaal's new film was crafted. dlvr.it/TRMzvr
