š„ Greg Owen | Smart Commentary on Media, Culture & Storytelling
Where media analysis meets cultural sanity.
Iām Greg ā a nerdy dad of 6 turned cultural commentator, here to help you decode whatās actually going on in movies, TV, games, and the larger entertainment machine. If youāve ever watched something and thought, āWaitā¦Why don't I like this [Media Product]?ā - youāre in the right place.
I dive deep into:
š§ Why modern storytelling feels empty (and how we got here)
šµļøāāļø Woke Hollywood, identity politics & performative allyship
š® Games & adaptations that donāt insult your intelligence
š Philosophy, storytelling tropes, and how media shapes belief
š¤£ Plus: sarcasm, memes, and occasional dad jokes
If you miss smart, character-driven stories and want sharp, funny commentary that cuts through the noise, subscribe and join a community that still values good writing and real human connection.
šMember streams include collaborative outlines & behind-the-scenes input.

Tuesday night, 2nd tier members come hang out, let's chat!
The member stream is getting a change up: we won't plan on brainstorming a video. It sounded great in my head, but it hasn't panned out. To those that loved it, I am truly sorry.
Instead, we'll just talk, no pressure. News, upcoming entertainment, deep personal secrets, whatever.

Tuesday night, 6pm central Freedom Timeā¢, āŖ@DespotofAntrimā¬ and I will be talking about some news items and answering questions in chat.
You better come hang out. You do not want to be on the Despot's "to be conquered" list.

Member Stream time!!!
Wednesday night, 6pm āmurican central time. Hanging out, snacks probably, and talking about a script. We are bringing back Good Trope/Bad Trope and Iāve got three possible tropes. Fake-Out Deaths, Time Travel, and Redemption Arcs. Youāll list some Good, Ok, and Bad examples, Iāll make some jokes, probably film a dumb skit in my kitchen, weāll all have fun.
The catch is that you have to be a second tier channel member, a Share Owener, to join in the fun. And if you canāt make it, Iāll post the notes we come up with afterward, so you can add ideas. I hope to see you there!
Also, I do apologize for ghosting everyone for several weeks. Itād be cool if there was a juicy story, but it was just plain old burnout. Emails are being answered now!
