MacEwan University’s student publication. Honest reporting, quality media, and good vibes.
Who has a newfound appreciation and respect for stay-at-home moms right now? The news is full of all stories COVID-19 and everyone is aware of the situation. Everybody has been affected in some way: students are unable to go to class in person, and the majority of...
Typically, date night means dinner, a movie, and maybe a concert if you’re feeling spicy. But for your next date night, I highly recommend a rage room. A rage room is a place that lets customers destroy items such as (but not limited to) plates, cups,...
Black Label Society played on Sunday, March 8 at Midway. Theirs is the first concert to take place since the bar opened and they put on a wicked show, setting the bar high for future acts. Midway is a relatively new bar as it just opened in September, taking the...
The SAMU Building, while still under construction, has made varying impressions on students. Some students say they believe the building is too new to have fully formed judgements, such as Hilary Scott, a first-year taking Bachelor of Arts. “I like it...
Royal Tusk first formed in Edmonton in 2011, but a lot has changed since then. Currently, they are on tour for their latest album, Tusk Ⅱ, and their songs are targeting deeper issues. Daniel Carriere, the main vocalist for Royal Tusk, says Tusk Ⅱ is quite...
When the school year gets busy, it’s hard to find time for things like laundry, cleaning, or cooking. Healthy eating often gets pushed aside in favour of comfort food and fast food; there’s a reason for the term “freshman 15.” So when my friend told me about...
Black Mastiff formed by coincidence around 10 years ago, but they have stayed together thanks to hard work and persistence. Despite one band member living in Vancouver and the other two living in Edmonton, they think the distance made them more dedicated to their...
The Glass Castle is a movie based on a memoir by Jeannette Walls. Walls (Brie Larson) and her three siblings (as adults, the characters are played by Sarah Snook, Josh Caras, and Brigette Lundy-Paine) have dysfunctional parents (Woody Harrelson and Naomi Watts) who...
In the movie Colombiana, 10-year-old Cataleya (Zoe Saldana), witnesses the harsh murder of her parents by a drug lord. After a series of suspenseful events, Cataleya ends up moving from Bogota, Colombia to Chicago, Illinois with her uncle. The movie skips forward...
SAMU’s Music Showdown was held in Thrift Shop on Friday and the atmosphere was great — everybody was eager to hear the music, and all of the acts were very talented. Thrift Shop itself had its grand opening back in November of 2018, giving the young musicians a new...
Figuring out what to do on a date can be difficult sometimes, especially when there are two indecisive people in the mix. Also, nobody wants to use all their student loans on a date night. If you and your significant other are looking for something different and...
The show “YOU” became available to stream on Netflix Dec. 26, 2018, and my life has not been the same since. The creators of the show put dramatic irony to work and keep the audience on their toes. The show follows the main character Joe Goldberg (Penn...
USS (Ubiquitous Synergy Seeker) is currently on tour celebrating their band’s tenth anniversary as well as their new single, “Big Life.” The band played at The Ranch Roadhouse on Nov. 16 with The Elwins and Hotel Mira. Toronto’s very own Ashley Buchholz had a few...
Even though it scared the life out of me, I’m still living for Deadmonton. The makeup was grotesquely realistic, the actors were scary talented (and committed to making me lose my voice from screaming), and the decorations were incredibly detailed. I arrived at the...
