Perhaps Nooners really need no explanation — it has been a fixture of the UC Riverside quad area nearly every week for as long as I have been a student (about four years now), featuring local or smaller musicians every week from all types of genres. This year, the Associated Student’s Programs Board (ASPB) held a unique nooner event...
There are wild moments on “Drunk” that make me feel like I’m on an Adult Swim show, high off imagery and infectious grooves alone. There are also sobering moments on “Drunk” that make me feel like I’m little more than a bag of bones with a shelf life and a longing for love. These mood swings, as conceptually antithetical...

He did it — Jordan Peele, one half of the brains behind the cult classic “Key and Peele” sketch comedy show, made a (damn good) horror film. “Get Out” is a daring feat that hits hard in 2017, an exhilarating, psychological half-breed that owes a great deal to Ira Levin as much as it does the racially charged context...
Folks, it’s Oscars season and we all know what that means. That’s right, “La La Land” unsurprisingly will outperform everything both foreign and domestic because the Academy loves itself some masturbatory congratulations. But aside from that, it exposes many people to the greatness that is foreign cinema.
“The Salesman” is Iran’s entry for Best Foreign Film at this year’s Academy...
I’m so glad I brought a punching bag with me into the theater on Friday to vent out my frustration with this film. This half-cocked film, “Fist Fight,” presents a bizarre premise riddled with superfluous F-bombs and disappointing, crass jokes that recur with no landing punchline.
It’s Roosevelt High’s last day of school, and all the seniors go ape-shit...
Radar is committed to all forms of art and entertainment and as such, will pick one book as a reading recommendation every week. This week, Radar’s “Lit” pick is “Time Travel” by James Gleick.
James Gleick is generally considered amongst the finest science writers in our time, and for good reason: He has an incredible ability to render difficult and...
Presented every February by UC Riverside’s Department of Creative Writing, Writer’s Week brings to campus a plethora of writers, authors, poets and novelists associated with the Riverside area or UC faculty. This year marked the convention’s 40th year and it brought forth a curation of highly esteemed and acclaimed writers from Tuesday, Feb. 7 thru Thursday, Feb. 9. We...
Unfortunately, our writers were unable to attend Winter SOULstice this year, due to being among the many waiting outside of the SRC North gymnasium for close to two hours in torrential downpours before doors opened at 8 p.m. — an hour after schedule. The event, originally planned to be held at the HUB Lawn area, was moved to the...
Torrential downpours throughout Southern California this past weekend rendered movement anywhere in the Inland Empire and Orange County Area a herculean task. However, these conditions seemed to go practically unregistered by the thousands of attendees of SOULQUARIUS music festival at the Santa Ana Observatory Grounds on Saturday, Feb. 18. While the Observatory has hosted festivals before, such as Beach...
