» Native American remains, Spanish coins unearthed by erosion from Hurricane Nicole

Hurricane Nicole caused widespread erosion across the east coast of Florida this week, endangering homes and washing out roads with massive storm surge. Those same forces unearthed several archeological finds around Florida. Human remains believed to be Native Americans were uncovered on Chastain Beach in Martin County. Investigators believe the bones might be centuries old and have handed the site over to local universities for further inquiry. The sheriff’s office said that the find consisted of a skull and several leg bones.

A less grisly find was unearthed by metal detector-using hobbyists in Bonsteel Park in Brevard County. Two would-be treasure hunters uncovered a coin that they believe came from a Spanish ship. Spanish fleets carrying gold and silver sunk off the coast in 1715 and 1733. While many of the ships in these two disasters have been found, eight ships are still missing. Treasure hunters have fiended after a big score since 1961 when salvagers found thousands of coins north of Fort Pierce. Atlantic Coast hurricanes scour the beaches and bring new opportunities for diehard detectors, searching over areas that would have been far below the top level of sand (or even out at sea) prior to the storm’s arrival. The single coin is estimated by the unnamed hunter to be worth around $400.

» Viral TikTok of seemingly injured dolphin at SeaWorld Orlando causes outrage

A TikTok that seems to show a dolphin bleeding at SeaWorld Orlando after being attacked by other dolphins is going viral. The video, posted by user @the.man.child, shows an injured dolphin resting on the side of the tank where Dolphin Adventures is performed. The poster claims the dolphin was attacked by other dolphins at the park and trainers can be heard calling off the show in the clip’s audio. “A dolphin pod at SeaWorld Orlando today repeatedly attacked one of the dolphins in the pod, while the trainers were trying to do the show, causing the dolphin to start bleeding,” the poster wrote.

Animal rights organization PETA has used the clip to renew its call for the end of animal shows at the park. “It never should have happened again, and how many more times must the dysfunction, cruelty, and profound animal suffering at SeaWorld be exposed?” PETA wrote. “Left alone in their ocean homes, dolphins maintain dynamic relationships with large social networks, choose their own mates, and swim freely, but SeaWorld crams approximately 140 of these highly intelligent marine mammals into just seven small tanks and then expresses surprise when they lash out, again and again.”

» Republican Ben Sasse confirmed as University of Florida president over protests

U.S. Sen. Ben Sasse was confirmed last week as the incoming president of the University of Florida, as several members of the state university system’s Board of Governors defended Sasse amid student and faculty opposition. Members of the board, which oversees the state’s network of 12 universities, unanimously approved a five-year compensation contract for Sasse that includes a $1 million base salary. Sasse would be paid an additional $1 million for serving a full five-year term as president and also is eligible for an annual performance bonus of 15 percent after May 30, 2024. In addition, Sasse would be eligible for annual salary increases starting in mid-2024 if he meets certain performance goals set by the university.

The Nebraska Republican, who was first elected to the Senate in 2014, repeated a pledge to the board that he will not engage in partisan politics while he leads the state’s flagship university. Sasse also told the board that he intends to compete with other universities in recruiting faculty and other talent to UF. But Sasse has faced heavy opposition from students who protested his selection by UF trustees as the sole finalist for the job last month. The university’s faculty senate also passed a resolution expressing no confidence in the search that led to Sasse’ selection. Sasse suggested that some of the heartburn about his candidacy was sensationalized. “There is always going to be, in a time as disrupted as ours, a sort of sensationalist tendency to take whatever an angriest moment is and pretend that it’s a representative moment. Those are not the representative moments,” Sasse said.

Storm uncovers cultural finds, video of allegedly injured SeaWorld dolphin goes viral, and other news you may have missed last week.

TUESDAY BLOODY TUESDAY

While the rest of the country escaped the projected ‘red wave,’ the Sunshine State got caught in the rip current

BY DARA KAM AND JIM SAUNDERS, NSF

Landslide. Red tsunami. Bloodbath. Call it what you will, Republicans overwhelmed Democrats in Tuesday’s elections in Florida.

Here are 10 takeaways:

DESANTIS DOMINANCE:

Gov. Ron DeSantis was a heavy favorite over Democrat Charlie Crist, but Florida hasn’t seen a whipping like Tuesday night since 1982, when then-Gov. Bob Graham won re-election by more than 29 percentage points. DeSantis won by more than 19 points and lost in only five Democratic strongholds — Alachua, Broward, Gadsden, Leon and Orange counties.

RUBIO ROLLS:

Through much of the campaign, U.S. Senate candidate Val Demings appeared to be the Democrats’ best hope for a big win. But then came the reality of elec tion night. Republican incumbent Marco Rubio crushed Demings by more than 16 percentage points and lost in only six counties — Alachua, Broward, Gadsden, Leon,

Orange and Palm Beach — as he won a third term.

PENSACOLA TO MIAMI:

The narrative has long been that Florida is a purple state, but Republicans, with a few exceptions (hello, Barack Obama), have regularly trounced Democrats since the 1990s. Tuesday took that to a new level. The highest-profile example was in MiamiDade County, where DeSantis and Rubio won easily. But the GOP also won in places such as Osceola County, where Democrats have a large registration edge.

GOOSE EGG:

In addition to losing the races for governor and the U.S. Senate seat, Democrats barely competed in the elections for attorney general, agriculture commissioner and state chief finan cial. The result is that, as of January, Democrats will not have a statewide office-holder for the first time in at least modern history. Democratic Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried decided against seeking re-election this year and unsuc cessfully ran for governor.

REDISTRICTING MATTERS:

If national Republicans come out of the vote-counting with a slim majority in the U.S. House, they might want to thank DeSantis. He pushed a redistricting plan through the Legislature in April that helped lead to Republicans gaining four U.S. House seats in Florida. As another sign of the impact of redistricting, only one congressional race Tuesday was decided by fewer than 5 percentage points.

SENATE SHUTOUT:

State Senate Democratic leaders called them the five “frontline” candidates. But Sen. Loranne Ausley, Sen. Janet Cruz, Joy Goff-Marcil, Janelle Perez and Raquel Pacheco all lost their priority Senate races Tuesday by margins of 6 percentage points or more. The results mean Republicans will hold a 28-12 “supermajority” in the Senate that, for procedural reasons, gives the GOP near-total power to pass its priorities.

GOP HOUSE PARTY:

Like their Senate colleagues across the

fourth floor of the state Capitol, Republicans cleaned up Tuesday in House races. With one race appearing headed toward a recount, according to unofficial results, Republicans are expected to hold about 85 seats in the 120-member House. The GOP won almost every battleground race and unseated incumbent Democrats Carlos Guillermo Smith in Central Florida and Andrew Learned in Hillsborough County.

2022 AND BEYOND:

The New York Post didn’t waste any time. The cover of the tabloid Wednesday blared “DeFuture,” with a picture of DeSantis and his family. DeSantis’ rout Tuesday of Crist will only add fuel to the speculation about whether he will run for the White House in 2024 — and take on former President Donald Trump in the GOP primary. Trump could announce his candidacy as early as next week.

THE END?

Crist has been a fixture in Florida politics since he was elected as a state senator in 1992. After getting elected as a Republican lawmaker, education commissioner, attorney general and governor, he has lost an independent bid for U.S. Senate in 2010 and Democratic bids for governor in 2014 and this year. It is unclear what, if anything, his political future might hold.

REBUILDING JOB:

The knives started coming out Wednesday morning, as the Democratic Progressive Caucus of Florida called for state Democratic Chairman Manny Diaz to step down. But, to put it mildly, the state party faces huge challenges if it hopes to be competitive going into the 2024 presidential election. Donors and the national party focused on other states this year, a good indicator of how they viewed Democrats’ chances in Florida.

Democrats ‘asleep at the wheel’

Ouch. That’s what state Sen. Shevrin Jones, D-West Park, said about his party and its leaders after Republicans slaughtered Democrats up and down the ballot in a blood-red Tuesday in Florida. Navel-gazing by Jones and other Democrats offered excuses for the losses and suggestions for an arduous slog to try to turn the tables.

Senate Minority Leader Lauren Book, D-Plantation, will head into the 2023 legisla tive session with four fewer members in her caucus, after losing key races in Tampa Bay, North Florida, Central Florida and Miami. Book blamed the drubbing, in part, on state party leaders and national donors.

“While last night’s results are tough and deeply painful, they also reflect what happens when we have little infrastructure to turn out voters and carry our message directly to them. It is deep ly frustrating for Florida to have been abandoned by national donors who for years invested in races only to disappear when we needed them most … without resources, being outspent 4- and even 5-to-1 becomes unsustainable to build a successful path to victory,” she said in a statement Wednesday morning.

Jones said Republicans have “played the long game” by “investing in a statewide infrastructure with real depth and breadth,” while drawing favorable legislative and congressional maps and “implementing consistent, concise messaging.”

“Meanwhile, Democrats have taken large swaths of the electorate for granted, chased the ‘shiny object’ of the day from a messaging standpoint — oftentimes landing on disjointed, tone-deaf themes — empowered the same few consultants despite loss after loss, and failed to build a sustained presence and organization in communities across the state. The result? 30 years of GOP control and a staggering affordability crisis that is unsustainable,” he said in a lengthy statement distributed the morning after the election.

Democrats also need to “play the long game” if they want to succeed, Jones argued.

“It is unproductive to point fingers, particularly because these are not singlecycle problems,” he said. “Rather than holding Republicans accountable for their failed economic policies and lack of vision that have brought us to this dire moment, the Democratic Party and its leadership, myself included, have fallen asleep at the wheel, letting the GOP control the narrative and gain more electoral ground.”

Democratic consultants also weighed in.

“I say this with all respect to activists who tried, but there was no turnout effort in Florida. Zilch. We saw what happens when one side combined massive communications edge with a well run turnout effort competes against a side with neither,” Steve Schale, who ran former President Barack Obama’s Florida campaign in 2008, tweeted Wednesday.

Kevin Cate, a Tallahassee consultant who worked on Democratic Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried’s failed bid for governor, made a chilling prediction as the results poured in Tuesday: “At the rate Florida is going, an NPA candidate for governor may have a better shot than a Democrat in 2026. It’s that bad. Complete collapse. We either reset or go extinct,” he tweeted.

TANGLED UP IN BLUE

Florida Democrats need to learn that there are no more moderate voters

BY ALEX GALBRAITH

The Florida Democratic Party is perhaps the most inept state wing of our two-party system in the entire United States.

For proof, you need look no further than last night’s election results. In a state that is pretty evenly split between Republican and Democrat registered voters, the Dems managed to get absolutely trounced in the first election post-widespread banning of abortion rights.

Following the uprisings against police violence that spread across the coun try in recent years, the best that Florida Democrats could manage to muster against a genuinely unlikeable career politician … was an actual cop. The best candidate they could muster to challenge sniveling shitheel (and future president?) Ron DeSantis was another goddamn Republican. It’s a move so out-of-touch with the wants and needs of their voter base that it borders on negli gence.

It simply didn’t have to be this way. But the people with money and power in the state’s Democratic apparatus assured us that pulling toward the center would peel off enough disaffected GOP voters to get over the two decade-hump that Democrats can’t seem to summit. These prognosticators and consultants held onto their knowing, shiteating grins until the exact moment that they got kicked in the teeth.

The statewide bloodbath for Democrats was highly predictable. Andrew Gillum, the previous Dem gubernatorial candidate advocated for progressive ideas, and he

came within a hair of taking Tallahassee despite his many, many personal problems.

Instead of seeing an opportunity to energize their base this time around, state Democrats learned the wrong lesson and trotted out a conservative that excited no one. They reaped a nearly 20-point asskicking.

To be fair, Florida Dems aren’t entirely to blame for thinking that their future lie in disaffected Republicans and “independent” voters. It’s the same model that’s made the Democratic Party a loser on the national level. Rather than offering new ideas and proposals that will energize the largely immiserated American public, Democratic Party planners have spent the last several decades questing after the votes of mythi cal suburbanites who feel disgusted by the direction of the GOP.

These people do not exist. They are people like our governor, who may not agree with all of the rhetoric of QAnon-addled idiots and venomous, anti-trans activists, but are willing to go along with it if it cements their power. Mitch McConnell doesn’t worry about how his moves play in the exurbs of Lexington and all he has to show for it is everything he’s ever wanted. Moderates and independents will inevitably vote for the more conservative party when the chips are down.

The Democratic Party continues to kow tow to these people at their own peril. The GOP and its acolytes are so far gone that they think Joe Biden (Joe fucking Biden!) is

a socialist dictator hell-bent on insitituting sharia law in your local pre-school.

Biden’s years of work in defense of every major corporation as the senator from the country’s biggest tax scam don’t matter. The fact that he was the prominent Democrat voice defending Clarence Thomas in his eventual appointment to the Supreme Court doesn’t matter. His work to make sure that student loans are the only loans that can’t be discharged in bankruptcy doesn’t matter. To the average Fox News viewer, he has the views of a young Mao Zedong and the brain of an old Ronald Reagan.

National Democrats have responded by cutting their own policy proposals off at the knees, means-testing them to the point of uselessness so that they won’t be painted as radical bomb-throwers. It doesn’t matter, because the right-wing machine is more than willing to call anything they do a Communist plot for pedophiles.

“Take your ideas from the Republican Party platform of 1993 for a long walk on short pier, Stalin,” the endless string of Fauntleroys on Fox News’ primetime slots regurgitate directly into their viewers’ mouths.

Funnily enough, the actual solution is to become the stuff of Republican grandpar ents’ nightmares. With the climate crisis and ongoing inequality, we are fast reaching the point of socialism or barbarism. It’s too much to expect the Democrats — whose job, like the Republicans, is to keep the money spigot flowing for the impossibly wealthy — to start setting up barricades, but they could run candidates who nod toward the progres sive views of the people who might actually vote for them.

But we’ve been in this game long enough to know better. We look forward to the 2026 gubernatorial race between Republican Marco Rubio and Democrat Randy Fine.

Festival of Trees at Orlando Museum of Art

BY SETH KUBERSKY

For the past two and a half years, we’ve been closely watching the slow recov ery of live entertainment at Walt Disney World, as shows that were shuttered due to social distancing lagged behind the theme parks’ rides in reopening. I’m happy to report that one of Disney’s last large-scale productions finally resumed performances earlier this month for the first time since 2020, bringing with it a host of long-awaited enhancements — not to mention hours for its actors.

But while the revival of Fantasmic! at Disney’s Hollywood Studios was definitely welcome news, what I observed during its public reopening proved that pandemic hangovers are continuing to dampen the magic.

In case you’re unfamiliar with Fantasmic!, this mixed-media nighttime spectacular starring Sorcerer Mickey has been running at the former Disney/MGM Studios since 1998, and is based on the original show that debuted in Disneyland six years earlier. Anaheim’s version is performed on and around Tom Sawyer Island in Frontierland, with standing-room audiences watching from the shoreline around Frontierland’s Rivers of America. For Orlando’s incarnation, a custom amphitheater was created with 7,000-plus bleacher seats surrounding a mountainous island, trading some of the West Coast’s wonder for comfier viewing.

Unfortunately, Florida’s Fantasmic! felt subpar compared to its Californian cousin. Disneyland’s version has enjoyed upgrades over the decades, unlike WDW’s. The show’s middle section was particularly problematic, with an awkwardly paced sequence re-enacting scenes from Pocahontas that was already dated at the turn of the millennium (instead of the thrilling pirate battle staged atop Disneyland’s Sailing Ship Columbia).

Although it still packed in capacity crowds on a regular basis, Fantasmic! was overdue

for a refresh, and the news that it would finally return on Nov. 3 with new scenes and effects was celebrated by fans.

The good news is that the refurbished Fantasmic! looks and sounds fantastic, thanks to state-of-the-art lighting and audio equipment that makes the mist projection screens and dialogue far sharper and clearer than before. Pocahontas still makes a musical cameo, but her section is now divided up into a montage of stunts and songs — featuring Aladdin’s acrobatics, Mulan’s martial arts and Elsa’s icy emoting — that moves along much better. The highlight of this new act — and maybe the entire show — is the moment when Moana walks on water while belting Lin-Manuel Miranda lyrics. The underwater walkway which makes this electrifying effect possible was apparently originally intended for Mickey, but for mer CEO Michael Eisner reportedly axed it because of the religious connotations.

Although vastly improved on many levels, the new Fantasmic! isn’t quite as flawless as I’d hoped. A projected sequence of floating bubbles near the start remains snooze-inducing despite the addition of newer characters, and Florida’s skeletal dragon puppet still pales in comparison to “Murphy,” the fully fleshed-out Maleficent animatronic in Anaheim’s finale. (And don’t get me started on the dinky steamboat that substitutes here for Disneyland’s Mark Twain.) Even so, while I’d still rather watch the West Coast version, Orlando’s Fantasmic! has finally closed the quality gap and become a worthy companion to its elder sibling.

The bad news is that while the show itself is much better than it was before, the experience of attending it — at least based on my reopening night observations — has taken a big step backward. The cast members at Disneyland seem to have the art of crowd control down to a science, efficiently managing thousands of viewers amid operating attractions. On the other hand, despite having a dedicated stadium with ample queueing space, watching WDW’s Fantasmic! has always involved investing

more time and effort than seemed necessary.

Thanks to Disney’s loss of institutional knowledge during the pandemic layoffs and ongoing staffing shortages, operational issues have become increasingly appar ent in the parks, and that was never more obvious than on Nov. 3. After the previous evening’s preview for media and employees was rained out mid-performance, I fully expected to see a sizable crowd form for the 8 p.m. performance by mid-afternoon; the only people who seemed surprised by the disorganized throng were the overwhelmed cast members, who imparted vague or contradictory information, and whose efforts to disperse the anxious audience were largely ignored.

Seeing such chaos more than three hours before the early performance was scheduled to begin, I bailed entirely on the first showing and paid a visit to Batuu instead, before joining the queue for the 9:30 p.m. performance about an hour before showtime. By that time, the line stretched all the way down Sunset to Hollywood Boulevard — which at least allowed me to watch the evening projection show while waiting. Although the mob was mostly organized, there was minimal communication, even when we failed to begin moving into the theater until 10 minutes before curtain. In the end, the show started 20 minutes late, which meant it was well past 10:30 p.m. when tired families were finally trudging their toddlers out through the closed park’s turnstiles.

I expect these reopening day difficulties will diminish as pent-up demand from diehard fans dissipates, and I still recommend attending the later performance (or reserving a table service dining package) in order to enjoy Fantasmic! with the least frustration. But my abiding impression from the show’s anticipated revival was that Disney needs fewer walkie-talkie-wielding man agers whispering among themselves, and more front-line workers who are empowered to actually assist guests.

AWAY IN A MANAGER

Locally made Christmas comedy would like a word with Orlando

BY STEVE SCHNEIDER

When it comes to comedy, some of the sweetest fruit is hanging right there on the vine, waiting to be plucked. That’s what Central Florida filmmakers Jon Binkowski and Lisa Enos Smith experienced last year, when Binkowski was helping his family put up their Dickens-themed holiday decorations. Binkowski’s wife took one look at the endearingly over-the-top tableaux of scenes from A Christmas Carol and blurted out a malapropism for the ages.

“She just made an offhand comment,” Binkowski says. “I think she may have said ‘Carol’ quickly and it sounded like ‘Karen.’ She said, “Hey, that would be funny: A Christmas Karen.’ And I went … ‘LISA!’”

A simple slip of the tongue had given Binkowski and Enos Smith the blueprint for a high-concept feature: a modern-day retelling of A Christmas Carol, starring a textbook Karen who treats everyone around her like caramel macchiatos that need to be sent back.

The finished film arrives Friday on multiple platforms. As written by Binkowski and directed by himself and Enos Smith, A Christmas Karen is a fast-moving, take-no-prison ers exercise that knows its moment — and its environment.

Set in Celebration (albeit filmed on location in Orlando and Kissimmee), the movie might not declare overtly that Central

Florida is the Karen capital of the world, but it doesn’t exactly shrink from the suggestion either.

“The fact that Florida is crazy, and that ‘Florida man’ exists, and Karens exist, makes Florida a perfectly logical place for this [story] to take place,” Binkowski says. “So we took advantage of that.”

Plus, he says, a diverse population is great for dramatic con flict: “We suffer from, and we also [revel] in, the fact that Florida is quite an equally balanced state between the personalities. In politics and everything else.” (That’s probably the nicest way possible to say “We’re all at each other’s throats,” but hey! ’Tis the season.)

Setting the story here also allowed Binkowski and Enos Smith to shoot in a familiar environment, using resources they’ve come to rely on for more than a quarter-century in local entertainment. The core business of their company, Renaissance Entertainment, is generating stunt shows and other themed attractions for the parks. When their industry sector started relying on 3D film in the mid ’90s, they had the chance to develop a whole new skill set. And producing their own movies seemed a logical place to apply it — especially after they were able to bring friends and family on board with an inves tor pitch that may have been the most honest in the history of the medium: “Who would like to lose $3,000 the fun way?”

Since then, they’ve released six full-length features of increas ing successfulness, running the thematic gamut from comedy to horror. Their fifth, Because of Charley, was the opening-night offering at the 2021 Florida Film Festival. But while Charley was a high-minded comedy-drama that set the emotional struggles of a multiracial family against the backdrop of the titular 2004 hurricane, Karen is a different animal entirely. Bold and broadly drawn, it has enough insults for a Dean Martin roast. It’s also more reliant on postproduction magic, which netted the movie an award for Best Visual Effects at last month’s Orlando Film Festival. The top honor it earned there, though, was a Best Actress win for its “Karen” herself, Michelle Simms, who came out ahead of competitors with names like Jacqueline Bisset, Sherilyn Fenn and Vivica A. Fox.

Simms is well-known to Orlando audiences as one of the nim blest comic minds our area has ever produced. She was once a mainstay of the Disney/Sleuths/Orlando Fringe circuit, where she was in demand for her knowingly goofy personae and breath taking ad libs. Since leaving Orlando for L.A. in 2013, she’s written and performed the solo shows “Weapon of Mass Seduction” and “What Is Love?” Nationally, she’s best recognized as the manic “Oversharing Mom” in the Carvana ads that played before 99 million sets of eyeballs during the Super Bowl, with another 23 million views and counting on YouTube.

Karen is Simms’ fourth outing for Binkowski and Enos Smith. Yet finding her character, she says, took some doing:

“They just handed this awful woman to me. I wasn’t sure how to crack the code to her at first. I knew the portrayal of her had to have heart somehow, and I thought about the notion that all humans act out of love or fear. So, I decided she was fearful of everything. She pushed everyone away because she was afraid they’d leave, only to be left alone anyhow.

“I also improvised a fart in one take, but they didn’t keep it.”

Not just a vehicle for Simms, the film boasts supporting per formances and cameos by a multitude of local favorites. Meghan Colleen Moroney has a barn-burning turn as the movie’s Jacob Marley stand-in, a former boss of Karen’s who taught her the ways of the perpetual kvetch. Some group scenes play like a run ning game of “spot the SAKtor” — no surprise given Enos Smith’s own background.

“I myself was an improviser at SAK many, many years ago,” she says. “And those are such kindred spirits to me that every movie we’ve done, we’ve tried to bring in performers from that environ ment. Because we love to add improvisation. It adds so much.”

Maybe the best thing about the movie is that it doesn’t shy away from the inherent racism and generalized fear of the other that undergird Karen-ism. Its title character is a hard-core bigot and homophobe who hates having to go to the Hispanic grocery for wine because nothing else is open on Christmas Eve — a holiday she could do without in the first place. And if that Dickens-mandated distaste for making merry is somewhat hard to work into a modern-day context — most Karens, one suspects, would outwardly profess to love Christmas — the film still manages to pull it off. Reclaiming the spirit of the season as profoundly compassionate and foursquare for tolerance, A Christmas Karen just might be the anti-anti-woke sermon we all need right now.

“Put Charles Dickens’ story aside, and it’s still so relevant,” Enos Smith says. “Does Karen deserve to be saved? Does she deserve a second chance? Karen gets redemption despite the fact that maybe she’s not real worthy of it. I think that kind of gives us hope.”

The Cuphead Show Part 3 — The show that’s a little bit retro and a little bit surreal returns, in time for Cuphead and Mugman to face the consequences of tricking the devil. Wait, there’s consequences for that? Somebody tell Paul Rudd to start looking his age, and fast. (Netflix)

Disenchanted — The sequel to 2007’s delightful Enchanted follows Giselle (Amy Adams) to the suburbs, where she discovers life is no fairy tale. Although she’d probably like it a lot better if she unsubscribed from Nextdoor. (Disney+)

Elite — As Season 6 begins, the students at Las Encinas high are reeling from the loss of yet another classmate. On the bright side, a death rate of one student per year makes it the safest school in America. (Netflix)

The Great British Baking Show: Holidays — Contestants in Season 5 are tasked with creating a Christmas pie entirely from leftovers. Oh my God … has anybody checked the burial chapel at Windsor? (Netflix)

Inside Job Part 2 — The animated manifestation of a million conspiracy theories adds Adam Scott as the voice of one Rob Steadler, Chief Mind Eraser for the Illuminati. Great, now we’ll never find out what Paul Pelosi was doing at Savoy. (Netflix)

The People We Hate at the Wedding — The quest to find another Bridesmaids continues, as Kristen Bell and Ben Platt head to the English countryside for the nuptials of a halfsister they could frankly live without. To be fair, I’m sure England considers us the halfsibling they could live without. (Amazon Prime)

Somebody — Nail-biting suspense ensues when a South Korean software developer learns that the dating app she created is being used as a database of potential murder victims. Listen, the way some of those people spell and punctuate, we’d probably be better off. (Netflix)

Spirited — Ryan Reynolds and Will Ferrell star in a musical upending of A Christmas Carol, in which Reynolds’ Scrooge stand-in forces Ferrell’s Ghost of Christmas Present to examine his own life choices. Seems like a pretty cheap way to get out of talking about Green Lantern. (Apple TV+)

PREMIERES SUNDAY:

Elton John Live — Farewell From Dodger Stadium — Help Sir Reg say sayonara to the concert stage with a three-hour livestream from his last-ever show in North America. That is, unless he cancels at the very last minute, like he did to Orlando in 2018. But what else are you going to do on a Sunday night? Learn macramé? (Disney+)

PREMIERES MONDAY:

Death in the Dorms — Every episode of this docuseries shares another true story of a college student who was tragically murdered. “Those campuses are death traps,” scoffs the absentee manager of your East Orlando apartment com plex. (Hulu)

PREMIERES TUESDAY:

Trevor Noah: I Wish You Would — Two weeks before he exits The Daily Show, Noah takes to the stand-up stage to talk about (among other things) his experience trying to learn the German language. Smart move: Most of what’s going on in America right now would make more sense in the original German. (Netflix)

Welcome to Chippendales — Kumail Nanjiani plays Somen “Steve” Banerjee, the founder of the Chippendales male-burlesque empire, in a drama series that shows just how desperate and de luded some women can be. By which I mean the ones who worked craft services on this thing and thought they’d be making more than 83 cents on the dollar. (Hulu)

ries, though severe, have since healed, and they are now back on the road, returning to Florida this very week for a string of shows.

HR was born in Liverpool, England, on Feb. 11, 1956. He was content playing jazz-fusion guitar with his friends in a group called Mind Power until he fell under the sway of early punk rock, as well as reggae, which was then at its peak. Daryl Jenifer played bass, while Gary Miller (aka Dr. Know) played lead guitar. HR’s younger brother Earl Hudson played drums, and the four of them went on to change music history.

Bad Brains were named after a Ramones song, and they were soon enough being mentioned in the same breath as any of the great punk bands who came before them. Their self-titled 1982 debut album was immediately recognized as a watershed in the genre; their second, Rock for Light (1983), was even better. (Honorable mention goes to Black Dots, a home recording from 1979 that was an iconic bootleg for years, but did not become commercially canon until much later one of the most thrilling records ever made.) Two classics in consecu tive years was one hell of a start, but the best was yet to come. I Against I (1986) was a summation of all they’d learned in those early years, with that classic punk power augmented by the atmospheric tones of reggae and dub. Very few people in history have done more to get the core values of Rastafari into mainstream society than Bad Brains, who flourished on the independent music scene, first in D.C., then New York, the West Coast, Europe and beyond.

Bad Brains were also crucial to defining diversity in the early punk era, along with folks like DJ Don Letts, Poly Styrene and the recently departed DH Peligro, former drummer for Dead Kennedys and (briefly) the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Bad Brains’ original lineup split up back in 1986, but they have reunited on occasion, including one ill-starred attempt at mainstream success in 1994 that saw them recording for Madonna’s Maverick Records label and touring with the Beastie Boys, before the band fragmented again, acrimoni ously. In the gaps between these reunions, the founders all worked hard on their own musical careers.

HR’S DEPARTMENT

Human Rights comes to Florida, and just in time

BY SHELTON HULL

Paul Hudson’s last visit to Florida was almost his last visit anywhere. The man we know as HR, co-founder and lead singer of the pivotal punk band Bad Brains, was in a van with his current outfit, Human Rights, riding back north

from touring the state in 2018 when a freak accident sent the vehicle vertical, careening toward a fate that was, Praise Jah, ultimately nowhere near as bad as it could have easily been. The vehicle was destroyed, but the people were not; their inju

In addition to the nine albums he’s made with Bad Brains, HR has released at least 13 more under his own name, almost all with his band, Human Rights. The most recent was Give Thanks, released in 2019. Interestingly, he is also widely believed to have coined the term “moshing,” one of many linguistic innovations that flourished in Washington, D.C., in the 1980s.

When left to his own devices, HR’s own work has been soul ful, introspective, almost ethereal. On stage and in person, he is one of the most honest and relatable music legends you’re likely to ever encounter. But don’t get it twisted: This elder statesman of punk remains one of the fiercest, most intense live performers working anywhere today. The quirkier aspects of the man’s personality have mellowed, the sharper edges smoothed over considerably.

“The Prince and the Tiger” is HR’s current tour. Their show at West End Trading Co. in Sanford on Wednesday will be their fifth in six days, coming midway through a southern swing that’s already taken them through Columbia, Raleigh, Charleston and Savannah. After that, it’s on to Tampa, Melbourne and West Palm Beach, for a total run of eight shows in 10 days. Not bad for a lead singer of 66, or any other age, for that matter.

LOCAL RELEASES

After four years of smaller releases, Orlando punk band 430 Steps had finally completed and released their debut album (Citizen of Nothing) in 2020. They’d just begun touring to promote it when COVID shut down everything. In the period that ensued, though, they channeled all that time and frustration forward into creat ing a whole new, even bigger album. And something transformative happened along the way.

The just-released, 12-song Lights Out LP is easily 430 Steps’ most prismatic work to date. While they’ve shown metal edges before, their main thrust has been classic hardcore. This time, those metal ribs are even more pronounced, with some thrash onslaught, hard-chugging riffs and even burning solos appearing throughout. The overall recording is a much fuller sound for them that packs a deep low-end kick more befitting a metal record.

The high-def dimension here renders 430 Steps’ attack with more muscle and detail than ever before. Some of those details further distinguish this record. There are moments where they shift gears mid-song without warning to reveal even more unexpected peeks of melodic rock, grunge and even electronic music (“Toxic Wall”).

Those detours, however, are brief. Even through all this newfound kaleidoscope, the tenor here is primarily beast mode. They may explore, but they’re not fucking around. This is 430 Steps’ most furious and locked-in record yet. No matter how densely they pack their sound, they blast it straight down the barrel good and hard.

Lights Out now streams everywhere.

CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK

Maserati, Vestis, Dearest: Athens indie band Maserati have been fine-tuning their

retro-futurist Autobahn rock for over two decades. But now they’re re-emerging in a synthwave age where the sounds of 1980s cinema have infiltrated the mainstream. Considering where Maserati are right now sonically, the stage is more set than ever for the mighty return of their roborock.

Be sure to catch the notable local openers as well. Vestis is an offshoot of the amazing Fond that deals in spare gothic folk, and Dearest builds extraordinarily textured rock one loop and layer at a time. (8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 17, Will’s Pub, $15-$18)

Cathedral Bells, Surf Rock Is Dead, Media Control, Jeanwilder: If you like your dream-pop with a splash of shoegaze then, damn, your musical palate’s as curiously specific as mine. Well, this bill is tailored to those very exacting specifications. Over the past few years, Central Florida’s Cathedral Bells have really dialed in their blend of

pristine jangle-pop and light shoegaze ether to become perhaps the first famous nonspiritual thing to come out of Cassadaga. With a deft mixture of soft moods and sharp hooks, the gaze-pop of Brooklyn tourmates Surf Rock Is Dead threads a nearly identical needle. This show will also be a good opportunity to check out the chunky shoegaze rock of new, excellently named Orlando band Jeanwilder. (5:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 18, the Social, $15)

Wynn/Wynn Friday: In terms of talent concentration, there’s probably no greater power couple in Orlando music than leading Americana light Hannah Harber Wynn and Southern rock messiah Thomas Wynn. They’re each powerful solo artists in their own right and have built their sterling names independently of one other. This special engagement, however, is a chance to see those forces together up close and personal. A win-win indeed. (7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 18, Lil Indie’s, free)

AAHZ’s Thanksgiving Eve: Oh, Thanksgiving dinner with extended family’s gonna be extra fun this year in this political climate and fresh off the midterms. Might as well treat yourself and sweat out the dread the night before at this old-school dance tradition. Orlando’s seminal housemusic event AAHZ will reconvene again to drop the classic bass. AAHZ resident DJs Kimball Collins and Dave Cannalte will be joined by an all-star lineup of DJ Icey, Andy Hughes, John Debo, Baby Anne and Tony Faline.

After shakin’ dat azz all night long, you’ll be way too spent and satisfied to bother trying to explain PLUR to your MAGA uncle over the dinner table. (8 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 23, the Beacham, $30-$75) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

THURSDAY, NOV. 17

Jessie Reyez

Jessie Reyez is the “Only One” we have on our minds and on repeat as we prepare for The Yessie Tour’s stop at House of Blues. Reyez’s newest album, Yessie, has undeniable R&B moves with a mix of hip-hop influences that will have you singing in both Spanish and English. The Colombian-Canadian singer-songwriter began writing songs in high school, inspired by a bout of teenage heartbreak, but fast-forward a few years later and she’s a pop force to be reckoned with: several million monthly listeners on Spotify, a Grammy nomination for her album Being Human in Public, features on Eminem tracks and a scorching “Tiny Desk” set for NPR. Becoming Yessified is inevitable. 8 p.m., House of Blues, Disney Springs, houseofblues.com, $35$85. — Valerie Galarza

Todd Barry

So much of the comedy of cult-favorite Todd Barry hinges on his razor-sharp deadpan delivery that it’s fitting he’s named his current tour “The Stadium Tour.” But, nacho-buying opportunities aside, the Dr. Phillips Center is a much better place to revel in Barry’s sardonic and skewed outlook (he had a joke about Fugazi’s $5 cover charge in the 1990s, for gods’ sake) than an enormodome. The comedian — improbably a UF alum — has been speaking softly and carrying a nihilistic stick for over 35 years on stage, in multiple Netflix specials, and in animated fare like Dr. Katz and Bob’s Burgers. This is a rescheduled show from late September that got postponed because of Ian, which was itself a rescheduled show from 2021. Ain’t it fun trying to catch a show during the slow-motion end of the world? That almost sounds like a Todd Barry setup. 8 p.m., Alexis & Jim Pugh Theater, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter. org, $29.75. — Matthew Moyer

Daniel Tosh

And right across the hall at the Steinmetz … Daniel Tosh is also making

his way back home to Orlando as part of a “Florida Trash” mini-tour. The comedian and TV personality is best known for his Comedy Central show Tosh.O, where he skewered viral internet videos for a mind-boggling 12 seasons. The University of Central Florida alum also has a long history of hosting the Comedy Central Live at Gotham standup series, has performed on Premium Blend, and has even been a pitchman for Taco Bell. We’ll be at home right with him when he headlines two shows at the Dr. Phillips Center. 7:30 & 10 p.m., Steinmetz Hall, Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, 445 S. Magnolia Ave., drphillipscenter.org, $49.50-$99.50. — VG

FRIDAY, NOV. 18

Shreya Ghoshal

The longevity of Shreya Ghoshal’s singing career in Bollywood — her first major playback role was in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s iconic Devdas back in 2002 — is notable both for the number of blockbuster films her voice has been featured in, and for the consistency of said voice. The sonics of Bollywood films have dramatically transformed over the last two decades, as have the texture and tone of the song genres on their soundtracks; Ghoshal’s textured singing and wide vocal range has been a perfect fit throughout, whether she’s singing lush romantic ballads, devotional songs, nostalgia numbers, ghazals, or dancefloor-oriented pop. That has made her one of the most well-known talents in the industry and gives her plenty to choose from for her marathon live shows. 8 p.m., Addition Financial Arena, 12777 N. Gemini Blvd., additionfiarena. com, $39-$104. — Jason Ferguson

Amon Amarth

For fans of death metal in all its gory sonic hues, Swedish vikings Amon Amarth have put together one of the best package tours in recent memory.

JESSIE REYEZ, THURSDAY NIGHT AT HOUSE OF BLUES

Aforementioned headliners Amon Amarth are celebrating their newest, rampaging fulllength, The Great Heathen Army, and live, they’re exemplars of muscular metal pageantry paired with keen, sharp melodies. But the hand-selected openers — my god (and/or Odin, depending which band you’re talking to), it’s like time travel through death metal’s greatest moments. You’ve got new-school grinders Cattle Decapitation, swampy and blood-soaked Central Florida legends Obituary (you’ve not lived until you’ve heard singer John Tardy’s post-verbal roar), and grindcore OGs Carcass playing their first U.S. shows in years. This is the only Florida date, so make thy pilgrimages as needed. 6:30 p.m., Hard Rock Live, 6050 Universal Blvd., hardrock.com, $39.50-$69. — MM

Bill Burr

Bill Burr, fresh off being immortalized with an action figure of his character on the Star Wars spin-off The Mandalorian, is coming to Orlando as part of his Slight Return comedy tour. The American comedian, long a hit on the stand-up circuit for a blunt style that pulls no punches but pushes all boundaries, has also successfully crossed over into the worlds of acting in film and television and podcasting. Burr has been nominated for a Grammy for his Netflix comedy special, Paper Tiger, and praised on Spotify with a 4.9 star rating for his “Monday Morning Podcast” in which he holds forth on relationships, sports and the Illuminati.

His Slight Return to live comedy sees him balance fiery topical takes with heavy introspection. The show is a phone-free affair. 7 p.m., Amway Center, 400 W. Church St., amwaycenter.com, $41.50-$126. — VG

orlandoweekly.com ● NOV. 16-22, 2022 ● ORLANDO

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Scorpio author Sylvia Plath had a disturbing, melodramatic relationship with romance. In one of her short stories, for example, she has a female character say, “His love is the twenty-story leap, the rope at the throat, the knife at the heart.” I urge you to avoid contact with people who think and feel like that — as glamorous as they might seem. In my view, your romantic destiny in the coming months can and should be uplifting, exciting in healthy ways and conducive to your well-being. There’s no need to link yourself with shadowy renegades when there will be plenty of radiant helpers available.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I like Sagittarian healer and author Caroline Myss because she’s both spiritual and practical, compassionate and fierce. Here’s a passage from her work that I think will be helpful for you in the com ing weeks: “Get bored with your past. It’s over! Forgive yourself for what you think you did or didn’t do, and focus on what you will do, starting now.” To ensure you make the most of her counsel, I’ll add a further insight from author Augusten Burroughs: “You cannot be a prisoner of your past against your will — because you can only live in the past inside your mind.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): How would you respond if you learned that the $55 T-shirt you’re wearing was made by a Haitian kid who earned 10 cents for her work? Would you stop wearing the shirt? Donate it to a thrift store? Send money to the United Nations agency UNICEF, which works to protect Haitian child laborers? I recommend the latter option. I also sug gest you use this as a prompt to engage in leisurely meditations on what you might do to reduce the world’s suffering. It’s an excellent time to stretch your imag ination to understand how your personal life is interwoven with the lives of count less others, many of whom you don’t even know. And I hope you will think about how to offer extra healings and bless ings not just to your allies, but also to strangers. What’s in it for you? Would this bring any selfish benefits your way? You may be amazed at how it leads you to interesting connections that expand your world.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Aquarian philosopher Alfred North Whitehead wrote, “The silly question is the first inti mation of some totally new development.” He also said, “Every really new idea looks crazy at first.” With these thoughts in mind, Aquarius, I will tell you that you are now in the Season of the Silly Question. I invite you to enjoy dreaming up such queries. And as you indulge in that fertile pleasure, include another: Celebrate the Season of Crazy Ideas.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): We all love to follow stories: the stories we live, the stories that unfold for people we know, and the stories told in movies, TV shows and books. A disproportionately high percentage of the entertainment indus try’s stories are sad or tormented or horrendously painful. They influence us to think such stories are the norm. They tend to darken our view of life. While I would never try to coax you to avoid all those stories, Pisces, I will encour age you to question whether maybe it’s wise to limit how many you absorb. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to explore this possibility. Be willing to say, “These sad, tormented, painful sto ries are not ones I want to invite into my imagination.” Try this experiment: For the next three weeks, seek out mostly uplift ing tales.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Virginia Woolf wrote a passage that I suspect will apply to you in the coming weeks. She said, “There is no denying the wild horse in us. To gallop intemperately; fall on the sand tired out; to feel the earth spin; to have — positively — a rush of friendship for stones and grasses — there is no getting over the fact that this desire seizes us.”

Here’s my question for you, Aries: How will you harness your wild horse energy? I’m hoping that the self-possessed human in you will take command of the horse and direct it to serve you and yours with constructive actions. It’s fine to indulge in some intemperate galloping, too. But I’ll be rooting for a lot of temperate and dis ciplined galloping.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “The failure of love might account for most of the suffering in the world,” writes poet Marie Howe. I agree with that statement. Many of us have had painful episodes revolving around people who no longer love us and people whose lack of love for us makes us feel hurt. That’s the bad news, Taurus. The good news is that you now have more power than usual to heal the failures of love you have endured in the past. You also have an expanded capacity to heal others who have suffered from the fail ures of love. I hope you will be generous in your ministrations!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Many Geminis tell me they are often partly awake as they sleep. In their dreams, they might work overtime trying to solve waking-life problems. Or they may lie in bed in the dark contemplating intricate ideas that fascinate them, or perhaps ruminating on the plot developments unfolding in a book they’ve been reading or a TV show they’ve been bingeing. If you are prone to such behavior, I will ask you to minimize it for a while. In my view, you need to relax your mind extra deeply and allow

it to play luxuriously with non-utilitarian fantasies and dreams. You have a sacred duty to yourself to explore mysterious and stirring feelings that bypass rational thought.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Here are my two key messages for you. No. 1: Remember where you hide important stuff. No. 2: Remember that you have indeed hidden some important stuff. Got that? Please note that I am not question ing your urge to lock away a secret or two. I am not criticizing you for wanting to store a treasure that you are not yet ready to use or reveal. It’s completely understandable if you want to keep a part of your inner world off-limits to certain people for the time being. But as you engage in any or all of these actions, make sure you don’t lose touch with your valuables. And don’t forget why you are stashing them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I know I don’t have to give you lessons in expressing your sensuality. Nor do you need prods and encouragement to do so. As a Leo, you most likely have abundant talent in the epicurean arts. But as you prepare to glide into the lush and lusty heart of the Sensuality Season, it can’t hurt to offer you a pep talk from your fellow Leo bon vivant, James Baldwin. He said: “To be sensual is to respect and rejoice in the force of life, of life itself, and to be pres ent in all that one does, from the effort of loving to the breaking of bread.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Many Virgos are on a lifelong quest to cultivate a knack described by Sigmund Freud: “In the small matters, trust the mind. In the large ones, the heart.” And I suspect you are now at a pivotal point in your efforts to master that wisdom. Important deci sions are looming in regards to both small and large matters. I believe you will do the right things as long as you empower your mind to do what it does best and your heart to do what it does best.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Social media like Facebook and Twitter feed on our outrage. Their algorithms are designed to stir up our disgust and indignation. I confess that I get semi-caught in their trap. I am sometimes seduced by the temptation to feel lots of umbrage and wrath, even though those feelings comprise a small minority of my total emotional range. As an antidote, I pro actively seek experiences that rouse my wonder and sublimity and holiness. In the next two weeks, Libra, I invite you to cultivate a focus like mine. It’s high time for a phase of minimal anger and loathing — and maximum reverence and awe.

I am a 24-year-old straight guy who recently broke up with my girlfriend of more than four years. One of the reasons we broke up was a general lack of sexu ally compatibility. She had a particular aversion to oral sex — both giving and receiving. I didn’t get a blowjob the whole time we were together. Which brings me to why I am writing: One of my closest friends, “Sam,” is a gay guy. Shortly after breaking up with my girlfriend, I was discussing my lack of oral sex with Sam, and he said he’d be willing to “help me out.” I agreed, and Sam gave me an earthshattering blowjob. I was glad to get some and had no hang-ups about a guy sucking me. Since then, Sam has blown me three more times. My problem is I am starting to feel guilty and worry I am using Sam. He’s a very good buddy, and I’m concerned this lopsided sexual arrangement might be bad for our friendship. Sam knows I am not into guys and I’m never going to reciprocate, and I feel like this is probably not really fair to him. But these are literally the only blowjobs I’ve received since I was a teenager. What should I do?

Totally Have Reservations Over Advantage Taking

Only one person knows how Sam feels about this “lopsided sexual arrangement,” THROAT, and it isn’t me.

Zooming out for a second: People con stantly ask me how the person they’re fucking or fisting or flogging feels about the fucking or fisting or flogging. Guys write to ask why women ghosted them; women write to ask if their boyfriends are secretly gay. And while I’m happy to spec ulate, I’m not a mind reader. Which means I have no way of knowing for sure why

some woman ghosted you or whether your boyfriend is gay. Or in your case, THROAT, I have no way of knowing how Sam feels about the four no-recip blowjobs he’s given you. Only Sam knows.

And that’s why I wrote you back, THROAT, and asked you for Sam’s contact information. Since you were clearly too afraid to ask Sam yourself (most likely for fear the blowjobs would stop), I offered to ask Sam on your behalf. I wasn’t serious — it was my way of saying, “You should ask Sam.” But you sent me Sam’s contact info, and a few minutes later I was chatting with Sam.

“Yes, I have been sucking my straight friend’s cock,” Sam said to me. “And I am flattered he told you I was good at it. That’s an ego booster!”

Sam, like THROAT, is 24 years old. He grew up on the East Coast and met THROAT early in his first year at college. Sam came out at the end of his freshman year, to THROAT and his other friends, and he now lives in a big city where he works in marketing when he isn’t sucking off THROAT.

My first question for Sam: Are you one of those gay guys who gets off on “servic ing” straight guys?

“I’ve never done anything with a straight guy before this,” said Sam. “So, no, I’m not someone who is ‘into servicing straight guys.’ I have only ever dated and hooked up with gay guys before!”

So, why offer to blow THROAT?

“I didn’t know until after he broke up with his girlfriend that he hadn’t got ten a blowjob the whole time they were together — four years!” Sam said. “When I told him I’d be happy to help him out, I was joking. I swear I wasn’t making a pass at

my straight friend! But there was this long pause, and then he got serious and said he’d be into it. I wondered for a minute if it would be weird for me to blow my friend, and there was definitely a bit of convinc ing each other that we were serious. When he started taking his clothes off, I thought, ‘So this is going to happen.’ It was not awk ward after. We even started joking about it right away. I have sucked him off four more times since then.”

So, does this lopsided sexual arrange ment — blowing a straight boy who’s never going to blow him back — bother Sam?

“I suppose it is a ‘lopsided sexual arrange ment,’” said Sam. “But I don’t mind. I really like sucking dick and I’m really enjoying sucking his dick. He has a really nice dick! And from my perspective, we’re both hav ing fun. And, yes, I’ve jacked off thinking about it after each time I sucked him. I know — now — that he thinks it is a bit unfair to me. But I don’t feel that way at all.”

So, there is something in it for Sam, THROAT. You get the blowjobs, Sam gets the memories. (Memories that he jerks off to later.) And Sam assumes that at some point, memories are all he’ll have.

“He will eventually get into a relationship with a woman again, and our arrangement will end,” said Sam. “I only hope nothing is weird between us in the future because of what has happened in the past few weeks.”

I got a lot of letters in response to THROAT’s question …
