OPINION: Enough is enough! It’s time for Keele to install a Bob Ross statue in the middle of campus

OPINION: Enough is enough! It’s time for Keele to install a Bob Ross statue in the middle of campus

by Dan Pearson | 1 1, f, 2021 | Opinion

The spongy afro may have made him look like a long-lost member of Sly and the Family Stone, but Bob Ross was a seminal hair icon – alongside Oprah, the bearded bloke from Queer Eye, and myself. And yet the hair was only part of the picture. With a paint brush in one...

OPINION: The best way to celebrate the end of Covid? Transform Keele Hall into a nightclub

by Dan Pearson | 1 23, f, 2021 | Opinion

Honestly, I was reluctant to watch Bridgerton. The aristocracy? Georgian-era romance? Fancy words I don’t understand? I’d much rather go to the pub. Unfortunately, the pub wasn’t an option. Neither were my essays, which I believe everyone should leave until the very...

Democrats clinch victory in Georgia Senate races – but what happens now?

Tiers and fears: what does the new system actually mean?

Get in, loser. We’re going to the Isle of Wight. That’s what I would say if I didn’t live in a tier 3 area, from which outside travel is strictly advised against. Yes, my small town of Stafford has sadly been lumped together with the rest of the county into the...

Searching for Ghosts: A Frozen Mystery on the World’s Highest Peak

by Dan Pearson | 1 12, f, 2020 | Opinion

Exactly what Noel Odell saw that day has never been definitively established. Looking up at the vast, frozen peak of Mount Everest, Odell – a member of the 1924 British expedition that aimed to be the first to reach the summit – reported seeing two small dots...
The Great Gatsby: Wild Nights, Green Lights and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Bitter Indictment of the American Dream

The Great Gatsby: Wild Nights, Green Lights and F. Scott Fitzgerald’s Bitter Indictment of the American Dream

by Dan Pearson | 1 28, f, 2020 | Culture, Literature

The Great Gatsby fell into obscurity almost as soon as it appeared. Published in 1925 to poor reviews and even poorer sales, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s idiosyncratic take on the Roaring Twenties – and the decadent hedonism that defined it – failed to resonate with...

The Twilight Zone (2019) Review: An Admirable Effort That Doesn’t Quite Hit The Mark

A race of aliens and their suspicious cookbooks. A gremlin wreaking havoc on the wing of a plane. A clown, a homeless man, a ballet dancer, a bagpiper, and an army officer trapped inside a giant cylinder with no idea how they got there or how they get out. So go the...

French philosopher Albert Camus once told the story of Sisyphus, a character from Greek mythology who, when it was time for him to die, cheated death by putting Hades in chains when he came to collect his soul. Eventually Hades was liberated, and Sisyphus’ punishment...
