AMP Watches: The Eddie Murphy Cinematic Universe
You’ve heard of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. You’ve perhaps sparingly heard of the DC Cinematic Universe, which has been/is failing miserably. You might even be familiar with the Megaverse, as advertised by Steve Carrell in unveiling the next 100 years of Despicable Me/Minions films and TV productions. However, all of these pale in contrast to the intertextual masterpiece no one asked for: the Eddie Murphy Cinematic Universe. Comets, now is the time to feast your eyes on two timeless cinematic classics that we watched so you don’t have to, featuring Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy, Eddie Murphy, and Eddie Murphy. You’re welcome, and we’re sorry.

April 2024 Ed Desk: Taking Stock
Heya, Comets! “Spring Break was too fast” may be a common sentiment, and in this case it’s too true. With the last couple months of the semester underway, remember to lock in to the capitalist grindset, as is mandatory for any regular person who lives in this godforsaken country. Also, the Pub is dead. They […]

DJ Showcase: Ethan Cabrera
Taking the reins as this year’s station manager, Ethan Cabrera has some fairly large shoes he’s hoping to fill — but after only a brief conversation, I’d say they’re exactly his size. Alongside his co-host, Katya Zakarian, you can tune into his show “Anima Sola” from 12-3 pm every Wednesday. He calls it “one of […]
