Intelligent, diverse, well made series
I wasn't sure what to expect from a college related series, as I'm usually sceptical of that scene, however I was pleasantly surprised by this show. The cast is smart, the dialogue is intelligent, the content is noteworthy and the production is high-end.

Sam, the feisty radio host of Dear White People and activist on campus, is one of the main characters, split between six others, showcasing an array of diverse voices and talent. The name is self-explanatory but all I can say it begins on the premise of a "blackface" party held by some of the white students on site. It is horrifying, but it is current and highlights racial tensions in America today.

From gay black characters, to interracial relationships - there is a plethora of storylines weaved into each episode. Fantastic series.

Rolling Stone's 14th greatest album of all time
This is the beginning of the Beatles' onslaught on the top 500 list in earnest. Their final recordings, it is a really diverse set of songs, from the superb Come Together, to the very different tone of Here Comes the Sun. A fair number of McCartney's "grannie songs" (not my words, the words of John Lennon) spoil this as an album overall.

Rolling Stone's 336th greatest album of all time
I have to be honest, I lost interest in Radiohead after Kid-A, when they moved away from songs and became more diverse. I know this says bad things about me, but it just seemed so much hard work compared to the likes of OK Computer and The Bends. This was a surprisingly good listen and one I will give another chance.
