@mypalsammy talked to director Craig Pryce whose latest feature is the compelling (& true??) story: The Mari***na Conspiracy!

A #Lorne behind-the-scenes documentary would be like Moses coming down the mountain with compelling commandments.

I'm happy with return of the horror. #SetTheVCR

Wise folks stop and capture it.

The launch of Artemis II got me thinking about some UBI history and how Nixon saw his guaranteed income proposal and the Apollo missions to the Moon as both serving the same objective of showing people that government could actually work for them and accomplish great things. Let's do that with UBI.
Welcome Alex Winter’s #Adulthood to @CraveCanada & @AMCPlus.
