Arthur's resident Cinevangelist is back for her monthly breach of containment, and this time she's been reading, which can only be bad news! By way of big words and sob stories, Evangeline scrutinizes the 2004 film Eternal Sunshine of the Frotless mind, reading into it far more than should be allowed.
Known to be a place of joy, where families, students, elders, travellers, artists, and the community at large all came together to share a beer and forget their daily struggles. Among trays of Labatt’s 50 beer and trivia nights, something magic happened behind closed doors: all these characters became one single entity under the cherished wooden roof of the historic Pig’s Ear Tavern. The Brock Street bar has been standing for 152 years, dating all the way back to pre-confederation, slowly but surely becoming one of the most beloved and memorable spots in Peterborough, Ontario.
I will have officially spent one month at Nottingham Trent University on February 15th. I have learned so much during this time and continue to take advantage of all the opportunities this school and place offers. Further, I am learning how to navigate the challenges of living abroad.
Rumours of Alfred's death have been greatly exaggerated, as the current insert bears witness to. This horrible little paper, bred in the deepest pits of contempt for ingrained authority, bootlickers, and patsies of all description is the satirical (and deeply stupid) younger brother of Arthur. Be warned: This paper has no redeeming qualities.
With Issue Seven, Arthur's 57th Volume goes out with a proverbial bang. Having survived a malicious libel and defunding campaign wrought by Trent's best and brightest, Arthur is assured another year (at least) of funding. Beyond the top-notch reporting you've come to love and expect, the paper and its contributors come back swinging with "Alfred" - an insert which is not recommended for anyone under the age of 18 or who get offended by things they read.
Issue 3 arrives just in time for the holidays - when exam stress is at a peak and snow blankets the city making it even less pedestrian friendly than usual. As City Council weighs the relative worth of a human life, they're also faced with student demands for better transit. In the letters section, international students are sick of sexy bingos and demand action while a famous scientist writes about the lack of resources for STEM students in labs and libraries at Trent. Also, the debuts of new columns "Dear David" and "Cinevangelism." All this and more in the December Arthur!
Episode 4! We finally have local music to serve as the official #PtboPoliPod theme! Big shout out to Garbageface for supplying us with these bangers. The second is that we hosted our first guest on the show, Councillor Matt Crowley, who joined us to talk about his experience as a new City Councillor.
