Knife Fight
A few months ago, I got an invitation to a private Facebook page started by chef Nick Marckwald of Hen of the Woods. It was called the “Cincinnati Restaurant and Bar Forum,” and Marckwald described the group as a place “for restaurant industry professionals to discuss topics related to the industry. Please post relevant industry…
Taft’s Ale House (Profile)
A quick history lesson: William Howard Taft was the 27th president of the United States and died 85 years ago. He was the only president to also serve as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. He was the heaviest president and the only president born in Cincinnati. Having obtained all of those superlatives, Big Billy,…
Onstage: Death and the Maiden
Ariel Dorfman’s award-winning moral thriller explores vengeful actions precipitated by violent abuse. Annie Fitzpatrick, Michael G. Bath and Giles Davies enact the story of what happens when a stranger arrives at the home of a woman who was the victim of a cruel dictatorship in a nameless Latin American country. Is he her persecutor or…
Film: Obvious Child Screening
We don’t actually know or care what Jake Arrieta’s thoughts are on women’s rights — we like them. P² (Parents and Professionals for Planned Parenthood of Southwest Ohio) is a volunteer support network for the region’s Planned Parenthood organization. The group hosts events that spread awareness about Planned Parenthood and raise funds for its education…
Art: Stretch of the Imagination Video Premiere at Wave Pool Gallery
Baseball players like Jake Arrieta probably prefer stretching their quads more than their imaginations (although Jake apparently loves Pilates), but Wave Pool Gallery hosts local artist Amanda Checco’s psychedelic yoga webisode series for tweens and young adults, modeled after such bright, colorful and lighthearted shows as Mister Rogers Neighborhood and Pee Wee’s Playhouse. Checco, the…
Event: Crafty Supermarket
Questions to ponder: How often does Jake Arrieta craft? If you threw him a ball of yarn, would he know what to do with it? While Jake might be a bit too busy with his afternoon game at Great American Ball Park to attend, he should know about Cincinnati’s recurring indie craft show. Crafty Supermarket…
Event: Northside Record Fair
There’s a chance Jake Arrieta likes music and collects records, although we may just be stereotyping because of his beard. (Fun fact: If you Google “Jake Arrieta music,” the video for Beck’s “Loser” pops up on the first page.) If he does collect (and wants to spend some time with fellow beard-wearers), he’s in Cincinnati…
Sports: Cincinnati Rollergirls
According to CSNChicago.com, Jake Arrieta only has four percent body fat. The Cincinnati Rollergirls are too renegade to care about modern culture’s pussy-ass attempts at fat-shaming women. So after the Reds game, if you want to watch real athletes compete — in fishnets, booty shorts and assorted bruises — check out the Cincinnati Rollergirls as…
Comedy: Jay Leno
Does Jake Arrieta classify himself as Letterman or Leno man? Does anyone? Jay Leno is getting back to his stand-up roots with a nationwide tour that stops at the Taft Theatre Friday. Leno, former late-night show host, avid car enthusiast and best-selling children’s book author, will tell jokes on stage after opener Emily West, a…
Event: StarkBier Fest
Jocks generally drink shitty beer. Is Jake Arrieta a jock? Does Jake Arrieta know good beer when he tastes it? If he needs a lesson or would like to imbibe some of our city’s finest suds, he should head to StarkBier Fest, the third annual Cincinnati craft beer festival at Listermann Brewing Company. Almost 20…
Art: Verge: Printing from the Periphery
There are plenty of great museums in Chicago, but if Jake Arrieta has some spare time between starts this weekend he might check out Verge: Printing from the Periphery, a survey of the best examples of contemporary Cincinnati fine-art printmaking, which opens Friday at Venue 222 in Over-the-Rhine. Tiger Lily Press, the venerable printmaking studio located in…
Event: Bourbon & Boots
Jake Arrieta grew up in Texas, which means he never leaves home without his cowboy hat; Texans love hats. He’ll need somewhere to wear it in Cincinnati, and Bourbon & Boots at Memorial Hall could be that place (unless he plans on scarfing some pre-game grub at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill;…
Music: Pigeons Playing Ping Pong
As Cincinnati Reds beat writer (and former CityBeat columnist) C. Trent Rosecrans noted in a brief blog post for The Enquirer about Jake Arrieta blasting our city, his distaste might be connected to the last time Jake pitched against the Reds in Cincinnati. Last summer, the Reds had six hits, scored six runs (not to mention all the stolen bases…
Sports: Reds vs. Cubs
In real life, Jake Arrieta seems like a perfectly fine dude, the type of guy who posts photos of his kids on Twitter, makes his own kale juice and goes for peaceful hikes in the morning. But none of that matters because he casually dismissed our city’s cultural value in response to a dumb question…
Comedy: Christina Pazsitzky
Cincinnati is known for having some of the country’s best comedy fans. Whether it’s catching a comic at one of our local clubs, supporting open mic nights or watching the division rival Cubs stumble through another World Series-less season, folks in Cincinnati enjoy a good laugh. Christina Pazsitzky knows a bit about that: Her husband…
Attraction: Escape the Room Challenge
How long would it take Jake Arrieta to get out of a locked room? Can he solve puzzles? How many times has he seen Saw? West Chester’s new Escape the Room Challenge locks a group of people in a room together and gives them 60 minutes to get out — or they die. JUST KIDDING. No…
Staff Recommendations for Jake Arrieta
In March, Chicago Cubs pitcher Jake Arrieta made the mistake of telling ESPNChicago.com that Cincinnati is worst road city in Major League Baseball: “Gotta be Cincinnati. There’s just nothing to do there. Not much going on.” As we’re wont to do, Cincinnatians freaked out and created a bunch of lists of things he should check…
Morning News and Stuff
Hey all. News time. Last night the League of Women Voters held a panel discussion in Clifton about Ohio’s charter schools, especially those in Cincinnati. The panel, titled “Charter Schools: Are They Accountable?," featured Cincinnati Public Schools Superintendent Mary Ronan, Aaron Churchill of charter school sponsoring organization the Thomas Fordham Institute, Steve Dyer of progressive…
A British Foodie in the Queen City
I moved from England last August to spend 10 months in the land of the free — I’m studying at the University of Cincinnati and exploring as much of the country as I can squeeze in. I’d been looking forward to the iconic American foods that the world knows about: deep-dish Chicago pizzas, stacks of…
UC’s Trove of Fashion Designer Bonnie Cashin’s Clothing
The Cincinnati Art Museum's wonderful current exhibition The Total Look: The Creative Collaboration Between Rudi Gernreich, Peggy Moffitt and William Claxton mentions that one early influence on the visionary fashion designer Gernreich was Bonnie Cashin, who created quietly avant-garde women's sportswear and whose reputation has only grown since her death in 2000. It turns out…

Onstage: The Taming of the Shrew
If you’ve ever seen The Taming of the Shrew, you might remember it as the tale of an ill-tempered woman brought into line by an abusive, gold-digging suitor. In that simple summary, Shakespeare’s early comedy understandably doesn’t sit well with most modern audiences. But contemporary presenters of the show have a variety options to make…
Green Issue
This year’s Green Issue focuses on sustainability. With headlines consistently popping up detailing climate change, pollution and energy crises, we should all be "going green," but beyond that we should also be thinking about going sustainable — whether that's following the 10 simple “green” steps Green Umbrella suggests for your life and home, or taking it a bit…

Council Passes Motion Asking for Report on Streetcar Phase 1B
Cincinnati City Council today passed a motion asking the city administration to draw up a report on possible funding sources for the planning and construction of phase 1B of the streetcar.

Best known as the drummer with Indie Rock mainstays Superchunk, Wurster is currently in the midst of promoting his other passion as one half of a comedy duo (with Tom Sharpling) who host the cult radio (now podcast) program called The Best Show. That comes on the heels of extensive touring…
Music: The Suicide Machines
In the Ska/Punk canon, no titan stands mightier than 1989’s Energy, the only album from Operation Ivy. But in 1996, Detroit outfit The Suicide Machines came close to matching that shooting star’s power and prowess with their first album, Destruction By Definition. The finest Ska/Punk is an elusive elixir, a mixture that’s youthful, exuberant, reflective and aggressive…
Music: Lucy Wainwright Roche
If my family should ever disown me and I’m forced to find a new one, I would start by begging Loudon Wainwright III to adopt me. Talent seems to spew from his every orifice and I want a piece of it. He already gave his envy-worthy genes to three incredibly talented musicians — Rufus and…

TV: Orphan Black
The phrase “best TV show you’re not watching” is overused, but Orphan Black (Season Premiere, 9 p.m. Saturday, AMC/BBC America/IFC/Sundance/WE) is one of the few shows that’s definitely deserving of the title.The BBC America drama follows Sarah Manning, a British single mom living in Toronto. Shaken by witnessing the suicide of a woman who looks exactly like…

Literary: Gilbert King
Will the cellphone footage of the latest police shooting of an unarmed African-American finally be a tipping point? Gilbert King most certainly hopes so.

Event: Burlington Antique Show
The Midwest’s premier antiques and vintage collectibles-only show is back, with 200 vendors spread over the Boone County Fairgrounds offering vintage jewelry, memorabilia and Midcentury Modern, as well as some wonderfully awful kitsch.

Music: John Aulabaugh
Alt Country/Roots Rock singer-songwriter John Aulabaugh is the dictionary definition of a musical late bloomer.

Unfriended
Producer Jason Blum (Blumhouse titles include everything from the Paranormal Activity franchise and The Purge series to Whiplash) has a sixth sense, it seems, when it comes to scaring the pants off moviegoers, and he’s willing to put his gut instincts to the test with the latest creeper from writer Nelson Greaves (a writer on…
True Story
New York Times Magazine reporter Michael Finkel (Jonah Hill), a rising journalistic star that played poker like a champion because he could lie with a steely calm, was soon discovered to be doctoring the facts in his pieces.

Child 44
Swedish director Daniel Espinosa (Easy Money) enjoyed what should have been a major studio breakout with Safe House (and the movie’s star Denzel Washington), but didn’t quite capitalize with a quick television or feature film follow-up. So now, three years later, he offers up Child 44, the story of a disgraced officer in the Soviet…
The Falcons and the Snow, Man
The first time I saw the Warsaw Falcons, my Cincinnati experience was only slightly longer than the band's existence. I'd moved here in January 1982 on the heels of a failed and miserable marriage. I was working for (and living out of) a record store in North College Hill run by my friends/saviors Rick and…

Dirty, Rotten Scoundrels

Worst Week Ever! April 8-14
