Movies: Air —The story of the creation of Air Jordan

Summer of soul—Hulu; Woodstock is etched in my mind as a sentinel event but as I watch it, I am surprised at how sloppy so much of it was.

Streaming: Deadloch on Amazon Prime—Australian crime/comedy on Amazon that is campy and weird and made me laugh. Australian humor abounds and is not for everyone. Rated 18 because of sexually explicit language…..

Royal Thai detective series #1

Bangkok 8 by John Burnett comes to mind after reading Villa Incognito.
