On October 24, 2015, Justin Phongsavanh walked out of a McDonald’s in Ankeny, Iowa, unaware he was taking his final steps. Until that cool fall evening, the high schooler had been an avid sportsman and was gearing up for a career as a journeyman electrician. A gunman’s bullets would abruptly and irrevocably change the course of Justin’s life.

By Mark HarrisWellbeing CoachLast week I took some time out to walk through Kaiserstuhl Conservation Park, one of the great places in the Barossa - and it was just what I needed. As well as getting out into the countryside, I came up with a new business idea, rehearsed a talk I was giving later that day, and burned some calories. When I finished, I was thinking about how many times I could h...

My son and I have a now 20-year run of the classic game “Graveyard” going. If you’ve never played, here’s how it works: for each graveyard you see along a trip, the first person to call out “graveyard” gets one point. Any set of tombstones counts — a family plot in the field or an artfully manicured cemetery next to a stately church. At the end of the trip, the person with the most points wins. Not real complicated, but it gives you a chance to engage during the trip.

What a pleasure to be stranded with all of you this holiday season! Bilge and Esther, I share your love for Alexander Payne’s movie, and I wonder if what people find “cozy” about The Holdovers is that it takes care of its audience in a way that many veteran moviegoers feel they can no longer take for granted.

In Slate’s annual Movie Club, film critic Dana Stevens emails with fellow critics—for 2023, Bilge Ebiri, Esther Zuckerman, and Mark Harris—about the year in cinema. Read the first entry here. Hello, future biopic subjects, Esther, you’ve stopped me in my tracks with the question of who should direct the movie version of my life. Is it Christopher Nolan, so that money would be no object?

Movies The first thing to know about the fall movie season’s opening tempest-in-a-teapot controversy is this: It’s not really about the nose.
