» Florida officials seek fines, criminal charges in death of Tyre Sampson Florida state officials want to fine the operators of Orlando’s FreeFall ride at Icon Park and are forwarding their investigation of Tyre Sampson’s death to Orange County law enforcement to see if criminal charges are in order. The move was announced by Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried in a Tallahassee news conference last week. The oversight body of Florida’s theme park rides has been investigating the death of the 14-year-old for months. Sampson fell from the free-fall tower ride after being improperly secured into his seat and later died of his injuries. “We are seeking an administrative fine exceeding $250,000 — one of the largest administrative fines the department has ever sought — and a permanent revocation of the ride’s operation permit in the state of Florida,” Fried said.

Earlier reports revealed that ride operators modified the restraints, allowing it to operate with Sampson onboard, who was well over manufacturer-suggested height and weight limits on the ride. Fried shared that the employees at the park were given “minimal training” on operating the equipment. She noted that there was no training manual for the ride offered to employees. “Neither the attendants nor the operator had read or seen the manufacturer manual, nor had an operating document been provided to attendants or the operators that were on duty,” Fried said. The operators of the Orlando Free Fall have already committed to closing and dismantling the ride. It has not reopened since Sampson’s death.

» Moms for Liberty sue for liberty to make abusive comments at school board meetings

A federal appeals court has rejected an attempt by a chapter of the conservative group Moms for Liberty to block restrictions that the Brevard County School Board placed on public participation at board meetings, which Moms for Liberty members contend violate First Amendment rights. Moms for Liberty, which was founded by two former Florida school-board members, has gained national prominence as it has fought school boards on issues such as mask requirements during the COVID-19 pandemic. Gov. Ron DeSantis, who took the somewhat unusual step of aggressively backing school-board candidates in this year’s elections, appeared in July at an inaugural Moms for Liberty “summit” in Tampa. The group’s Brevard County chapter and individual members filed the lawsuit in November 2021 in federal court in Orlando. Among other things, they contend that speakers are frequently interrupted for criticizing the school board, including for comments deemed “personally directed” at board members.

But U.S. District Judge Roy B. Dalton Jr. in January wrote that on “its face, the policy is both content- and viewpoint-neutral. … It allows the [school board] chair to interrupt speech only when it is ‘too lengthy, personally directed, abusive, obscene, or irrelevant.’” The Moms for Liberty chapter and members quickly appealed to the Atlanta-based appellate court, with their attorneys writing in a brief that the “First Amendment does not exist to protect the speech that government officials find inoffensive. The rights of free speech and petition come into play only where, as here, government officials seek to silence views that they dislike.”

“School board meetings are limited public fora,” the March 16 brief said. “School officials may thus restrict the content of debate to school matters. But in doing so, they must tolerate all viewpoints. Americans cannot silence each other in a limited public forum by taking offense. But the record is clear: Defendants (the school board) interrupt, silence, and even expel speakers they find disagreeable from school board meetings when finding speech ‘abusive,’ ‘personally directed,’ or ‘obscene.’”

» Elon Musk supports DeSantis in hypothetical 2024 presidential run SpaceX head and most divorced man alive Elon Musk once again threw his support behind Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis in a hypothetical 2024 presidential run. The billionaire took a break from crashing rocket junk into the moon and Twitter into the Earth to support the candidacy of DeSantis, should the governor opt to run for president of the United States. The latest endorsement was part of Musk’s strange penchant for replying directly to MAGA and alt-right accounts since buying Twitter for $44 billion

earlier this year. He was asked by Twitter user @ProudElephant if he would support DeSantis and responded with a simple “yes.”

Musk has vocally supported DeSantis (widely viewed to be former president Donald Trump’s most serious challenger for the 2024 nomination) before. A previous vote of confidence in the governor led Trump to call Musk a “bullshit artist” who makes “driverless cars that crash” and “rocketships to nowhere.” DeSantis has not announced a run for president.

» Hurricane Ian insured losses top $10.27 billion Continuing to steadily increase, the estimated insured losses from Hurricane Ian have topped $10.27 billion. Data posted on the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation showed that, as of Nov. 22, estimated insured losses were $10,271,655,453, up from $9,626,397,208 the previous week and $8.7 billion two weeks earlier. The new data showed that 640,496 claims had been filed, including 443,658 that involved residential property. Other types of claims involved such things as commercial property and auto damage. More than 50 percent of claims had been closed, with 214,711 closed with payments made and 121,665 closed without payments. Meanwhile, the Office of Insurance Regulation reported that estimated insured losses from Hurricane Nicole, which hit the East Coast on Nov. 10, had reached $132.4 million as of Monday. That Category 1 storm led to 14,389 claims, with the largest number (1,987) in Brevard County.

» Special session of Florida Legislature set for mid-December Senate President Kathleen Passidomo, R-Naples, and House Speaker Paul Renner, R-Palm Coast, said Tuesday that a special legislative session will be held the week of Dec. 12 to Dec. 16. Gov. Ron DeSantis said last month that lawmakers would hold a special session that is expected to include providing property tax relief for people affected by Hurricane Ian and addressing property insurance issues, but DeSantis did not announce specific dates. Lawmakers were already scheduled to be in the state Capitol during the week of Dec. 12 for committee meetings.

THE SAGA OF THE ‘COWBOY LEGEND’ AIN’T OVER

Florida’s Department of Health dragged its feet on a Black farmer’s MMJ license so long that he died before a decision was made. Now they want to pass over his heirs completely

BY DARA KAM, NSF

Moton Hopkins went from being one of the state’s most successful Black farmers to working odd jobs to support his family, after a devastating drought and discrimination by the federal government wiped out the Florida native’s livelihood.

But the “cowboy legend” — a moniker bestowed on the entrepreneur who traveled the country selling his family farm’s fruit and veggies — and his allies jumped on an opportunity to try to cash in on what has the potential to be one of Florida’s most lucrative crops: marijuana.

Hopkins was among a dozen farmers and their teams who sought a medical-marijuana license, likely worth tens of millions of dol lars, designated in Florida law for a Black farmer who participated in class-action lawsuits over lending discrimination by the federal government.

State health officials deemed the appli cation submitted by Hopkins and Hatchett Creek Farms LLC, of which he owned 51 percent, to be the cream of the crop.

But Department of Health officials in September announced they intended to grant the license for what is known as a “medi cal marijuana treatment center,” or MMTC, to someone else, because the 84-year-old Hopkins died before the state’s decision about the license was finalized.

“Any interest Mr. Hopkins had in the MMTC application ceased upon Mr. Hopkins’ death, as the licensure qualifica tions are personal to Mr. Hopkins and do not flow to third parties,” health officials wrote on Sept. 20.

Hopkins’ heirs and Hatchett Creek, how ever, argue that nothing in state rules requires that the applicant be alive when the license is ultimately awarded.

“Our application got the highest score. That’s undisputed,” Thomas Sosnowski, an attorney with the Boies Schiller Flexner firm, who represents the Hopkins family and Hatchett Creek, told the News Service of Florida. “That means the department deter mined that Hatchett Creek Farms was the business that was in the best position among all the applicants to best serve the citizens of Florida and the health and safety goals required for a medical marijuana treatment

center. That’s important.”

The Hopkins team also said participation in the class-action lawsuits against the fed eral government was a “gating requirement” for applicants to make it to the next phases of evaluation and that a license can’t be “per sonal” to a medical-marijuana operator.

Hopkins’ 51 percent majority interest in Hatchett Creek passed to his heirs — Hopkins’ widow, Algene, and his son, Moton Hopkins Jr. — after he died, the petition said.

The elder Hopkins was a “fixture” in the Ocala community, where he and his wife ran the city’s first Black-owned restaurant for more than five decades, members of his team told the News Service.

The application process for the Black farmer license is the first time the state has accepted applications from prospective medical-marijuana operators since an initial round of licensing more than six years ago.

And competition to gain a foothold in Florida, where existing licenses have fetched upward of $50 million, is fierce.

The state’s cannabis program has explod ed since voters approved a constitutional amendment broadly authorizing medical marijuana in 2016. Florida has more than 750,000 patients, 22 licensed operators and hundreds of dispensaries from Pensacola to Key West.

A 2017 law that provided an overall framework for the industry required health officials to issue a license to people with ties to the class-action litigation — known as the “Pigford” litigation.

State health officials began accepting applications for the Black farmer license in March, and in September announced they intended to grant the license to Suwannee County farmer Terry Donnell Gwinn. All of the applicants who lost out are challenging the decision.

Hopkins’ lawyers argue the license should go to the entity — not the individual — affili ated with the application. In a petition, they seek a hearing to determine whether health officials “erroneously relied on an unadopted rule that ‘licensure qualifications’ are ‘per sonal to’ Hopkins.”

“The department’s statement in its denial letter that ‘licensure qualifications’ are ‘per sonal to’ a Pigford/BFL class member is an

unadopted rule that was created ad-hoc by the department and used for the first time in its denial letter,” the petition said. “Once the application is submitted, the ‘applicant’ conflates to include the entity for scoring and licensing purposes, as the applicant must satisfy certain licensing requirements that only an entity can satisfy, including the abil ity to ‘operate a food establishment,’ among others.”

The lawyers also argued that “it is irrel evant” whether Hopkins “lives long enough to see the results of his submission, as it is his entity that is the ‘applicant’ for purposes of licensure. Thus, once submitted, his entity and its members have a substantial interest in the application and its prospective MMTC license.”

The petition also blamed the Department of Health for dragging its feet on the Black farmer license. In 2018, state lawmakers called for the license to be issued “as soon as practicable.”

Health officials announced in December 2021 that they would accept applications for the license. The application window opened in March.

“This is relevant here, because if the department had complied with its statutory mandate, Moton Hopkins would not have died while his application was pending,” Hopkins’ lawyers wrote.

Hopkins’ legal team also argued that the denial of Hopkins’ application “is fun damentally inconsistent” with the Pigford settlement, which “recognized that the heirs of an identified and qualified farmer” are intended beneficiaries of the litigation.

“Denial of the application simply because Mr. Hopkins did not die soon enough or did not live long enough but rather died during an interim period after his application was successfully submitted yet before the license award was announced is illogical and con trary to the purpose and goals of the federal legislation,” the lawyers wrote.

But Jim McKee, an attorney who rep resents Gwinn, said Florida law and the rules for the application “clearly require the license resulting from the Pigford process to be awarded to a Pigford class member.”

The law “does not permit the license to instead be awarded to a trust or any other person or entity that is not a Pigford class member,” he told the News Service.

McKee also noted that Hopkins’ appli cation was disqualified because a manager included in the application failed to pass a background screening as required by law.

“The application process worked as intended, and resulted in the highestscored qualified applicant being selected for an award,” McKee said. “Mr. Gwinn looks forward to the pending challenges being resolved so he can move forward with the licensure process.”

REAP THE WHIRLWIND, GOP

Guess what? When you elect a bunch of clowns, you end up with a circus.

BY JEFFREY C. BILLMAN

Donald Trump’s third presidential campaign launched like a fart in an elevator not because Republican elites awoke from their seven-year stupor to reject his racist grievances, conspiracy theories and authori tarian appeals; they turned on him because he bore a stench of defeat so thick that even Trump couldn’t pretend it didn’t exist.

Ever so slightly, Trump’s hold on the party had loosened. Maybe not permanently. Republicans denounced the Department of Justice’s appointment of a special counsel to investigate Trump, and the martyrdom of an actual indictment might do wonders to elevate his status in MAGAland. But Trump’s petulant, gaslighting response — falsely asserting that other former presidents had absconded with records, then saying he “won’t partake” in the investigation, as if it were optional — failed to rally the masses to his banner, not like it used to.

Regardless of who leads it in 2024, however, the GOP is still the party that Trump molded in his image — high on its own supply, locked in a Fox News feedback loop. Consider that immediately after an election in which voters rebuked the GOP’s social extremism, threefourths of Senate Republicans voted against same-sex marriage.

More to the point, though, consider what House Republicans did as soon as they secured their slim majority: They promised to inves tigate Hunter Biden (and his laptop, and the social media companies that didn’t boost sto ries about his laptop before the 2020 election).

To investigate the FBI for investigating Donald Trump. To investigate the DOJ for charging

participants in the Jan. 6 insurrection. To investigate Anthony Fauci for trying to deal with the pandemic. To investigate the FBI director for using a taxpayer-funded plane to get on vacation, which Rep. Elise Stefanik believes is “illegal and unethical”; in fact, since 2011, executive branch policy has required FBI directors to use government airplanes for all flights, including personal trips. To cut off aid to Ukraine. To gut funding for the IRS. To play Russian roulette with the debt ceiling. To impeach the secretary of Homeland Security.

They haven’t said so yet, but I’d wager a not-small sum they’ll pass a national abor tion ban and find an excuse to impeach Joe Biden before the next election, too. The party’s political minds will warn them that these are terrible ideas that have no chance of going anywhere. But when you elect clowns, you get a circus, and poor Kevin McCarthy will be in no position to keep them in line. He’ll be the weakest House speaker in modern history — assuming he becomes speaker, which isn’t a foregone conclusion — his testicles in a vice owned by the Freedom Caucus.

To be clear, it’s Congress’ job to investi gate malfeasance and abuses of power. But that’s not what House Republicans have planned. They want two years of Benghazis — dubious hearings that, despite their lim ited merits, provide fodder for Tucker Carlson while Republicans fish for something sub stantive enough to damage the Biden administration, à la Hillary’s emails. (Never mind that these same Republicans saw and heard no evil when the Trump administration was throwing the Constitution in a blender.)

Look no further than the news conference given last Thursday by the Reps. James Comer and Jim Jordan, the incoming chairmen of the House Oversight and Judiciary Committees, respectively.

“Committee Republicans have uncovered evidence of federal crimes committed by, and to the benefit of, members of the president’s family,” asserted Comer, an election-denying Trump sycophant. “These include conspir acy or defrauding the United States, wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act, violations of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, violations of the Trafficking Victims Protections Act, tax evasion, money laun dering, and conspiracy to commit money laundering. The Biden family’s business dealings implicate a wide range of criminality from human trafficking to potential violations of the Constitution.”

The 31-page report the Republicans pro duced didn’t cite any of the aforementioned crimes. Instead, it lobbed accusations of “self-dealing” and “corruption” while vague ly referencing unnamed whistleblowers and reports of suspicious banking activity — one of which “implies Hunter Biden has some connection to a sex trafficking operation.” (To translate: He might have paid a prostitute.) They claim that Joe Biden, while he wasn’t in public office, was a partner in one of Hunter’s dealings with an oil company in China — again, not a crime, though, if true, unseemly.

Let’s see what else the Biden Mafia is up to: “From Valerie Biden Owens, the President’s ‘sister, confidante, and longtime political strategist,’ penning a book about the Biden family shortly after the inauguration to Francis ‘Frank’ Biden ‘promot[ing] his relationship to the commander-in-chief in an Inauguration Day advertisement for the law firm he advis es[,]’ the Biden family’s monetization of the President’s time in Washington is well docu mented.”

Maybe don’t bring out the guillotine yet. It’s clear Hunter will be the villain of the next two years: his business ventures in Ukraine and China, his affinity for booger sugar, and so on. But congressional Republicans might have to get in line: The same DOJ that’s inves tigating Trump is also investigating Hunter. A probe of his overseas business dealings has boiled down to scrutiny of his taxes and state ments he made about his drug use when he bought a gun. A Trump-appointed prosecutor will ultimately decide whether to charge him.

Only 28 percent of Americans think Hunter Biden’s finances should be a top priority for the next Congress — not coincidentally, the same percentage wants Congress to put impeaching Biden on the front burner. Some of the GOP’s savvier political minds want to distance them selves from the freak show. But that’s what you get when you align with extremists.

On Thursday, when reporters tried to ask Comer about, well, anything else, he cut them off. “If we could keep it about Hunter Biden, that would be great.”

The man has priorities.

If Iger is interested in repairing what’s rotten, he should make his SVPs visit the parks with their families during peak holiday season, with no special privileges. Let them watch their kids cry while waiting hours for a ride, and you’d see serious changes pronto

When I covered the recent 2022 IAAPA Expo in last week’s edition of Live Active Cultures, I foolishly assumed that convention would constitute the climax of theme park industry events for the year. But only days after IAAPA attendees departed Orlando, Disney’s board of directors dropped an unexpected bombshell that is reverberating far beyond the borders of the Magic Kingdom. The shocking sacking of Walt Disney Company CEO Bob Chapek — who reportedly learned of his firing shortly before he was scheduled to introduce Elton John’s final U.S. performance — and the reinstatement of his predecessor Bob Iger after barely two years was definitely not a develop ment I had on my Disney drama bingo card.

But although many fans (and employees) greeted the breaking news of Bob’s replacement by the Bob he replaced with celebrations rival ing the Munchkins’ rejoicing over Dorothy’s drop-in, my delight is dulled by remembering the refrain from one of my favorite songs by the Who: “Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.”

It’s no secret that the pandemic-era accel eration in price hikes and service cuts across Disney’s attractions has turned an increasing number of former die-hard Disney devotees against the company, with complaints about complicated new crowd control policies push ing more and more potential visitors toward competitors like Universal. Much of that online ire was aimed at Chapek personally, even though several of the most unpopular policies originated during Iger’s reign or fall under the domain of Parks chairman Josh D’Amaro. And any pushback by annual passholders didn’t prevent Disney’s parks from reaching recordbreaking revenues in the most recent fiscal

quarter; if not for the stock price plunge pre cipitated by steep losses from the Disney+ streaming division, the parks’ profitability might have preserved Chapek’s job.

As fun as it is fantasizing about Iger charg ing in on a white horse to fix everything we park-watchers whine about, in reality he’s got bigger things to worry about — like undoing Chapek’s disastrous restructuring of the stu dio’s content divisions and finding a suitable successor before his two-year contract expires. Even if Iger were to make wholesale changes to the resorts, it wouldn’t necessarily represent a return to some idyllic age: Just watch Abigail Disney’s documentary, The American Dream and Other Fairy Tales, for evidence of how frontline cast members fared under his reign. However, there is a legitimate hope that Iger might want to undo some of the most egre giously unpopular policies associated with his short-lived heir, if only to stanch the bloodlet ting of brand withdrawals and begin rebuilding trust with Mickey’s most vocal customers.

Assuming that is the case, here are some completely unsolicited suggestions that Iger could implement within the next 30 days, instantly winning back the hearts and minds of pixie-dust addicts everywhere in time for the New Year:

• Eliminate theme park reservations for date-specific single-day and multi-day theme park tickets, and increase the number of advance park reservations annual passholders can make.

• Move the park-hopping eligibility time up from 2 p.m. to noon, and stop requiring passholders to enter their reserved park first if arriving in the afternoon.

• Resume running parking lot courtesy trams at all theme parks.

• Get rid of the virtual queue for Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind.

• Include free Disney+ access with every theme park admission.

• Officially cancel the corporate relocation

from California to Lake Nona, and recruit back some of the talented Imagineers who exited in recent years.

• Rehire remaining laid-off entertainers, with an emphasis on restarting shuttered street shows like Citizens of Hollywood.

• Increase after-hours preventative mainte nance on major attractions to reduce rampant breakdown.

• Announce a firm opening date for the Magic Kingdom’s Tron coaster, and begin limited previews before Christmas.

Unfortunately, implementing all of these ideas still wouldn’t solve the biggest prob lem with the Walt Disney World theme parks. Surging attendance has outpaced the addition of new attractions, leading to a net loss in hourly per-capita carrying capacity that is only exacerbated by upcharge line-cutting schemes like Genie+. In fact, unless Iger can wave his magic wand and instantly apparate a couple of brand-new E-tickets inside each park, the most efficient way he could improve the park-going experience is by eliminating Genie+, which makes guests pay an extra $20-$30 for the privilege of spending all day refreshing their smartphones in hopes of snagging a Lightning Lane return time.

With more than 50 percent of visitors shell ing out for the service, Iger is unlikely to kill this cash cow entirely. But capping sales at 10 percent of park attendance (while drastically increasing the price) would make the service more valuable for those who opt to purchase it, and much less detrimental to those who don’t.

And if Iger is really interested in repairing what’s rotten in the resorts, he merely has to make his top lieutenants do exactly what I did last week: Visit the parks with their families during a peak holiday season, without any special privileges. Let a few SVPs watch their kids cry while waiting three hours for a ride, and you’d see serious changes starting the very next day.

UPRIGHT SUSHI DEN’S BRIGADE

Edoboy and its standing-only sushi bar is less novelty and all quality

BY FAIYAZ KARA

Standing-only sushi stalls were the original fast-food joints of Japan, a phenomenon established in Edo (present-day Tokyo) in 1810 by the architect of modern-day nigirizushi Hanaya Yohei. Since then, many standing sushi spots have taken root near bustling transportation hubs in major Japanese cities to cater to the hur ried and the hungry.

The hurried and the hungry are precisely who Sonny Nguyen (Domu, Tori Tori) had in mind when opening his seatless house of sushi, Edoboy, this past July.

Patrons could pop in for a few bites of high-quality sushi, pay up and get on their way. But there’s only so many guests you can serve at an eight-person sushi bar — eight, to be exact. Walk-ins would have no choice but to wait outside in the sticky Florida funk.

So it was Resy to the rescue. Now stand ings (not seatings) can be controlled, making it convenient for everyone. And for the sake

of celerity, there are rules to abide by at Edoboy: No. 1, don’t stay longer than an hour; No. 2, limit nigiri orders to 12 pieces, and No. 3, don’t bring cash. Pay heed to these three commandments and ye shall be delivered superlative slivers of seafood, courtesy of head sushi chef Tyler Inthavongsa and chef Francis Varias.

My first visit here, over the summer, was to experience the novelty of it all. The pal and I both maxed our selections from the list of 22 nigiri, torched nigiri (aburi sushi) and hand rolls (temaki), dou bling up on flame-licked sweet red prawn ($6.50) seared with uni butter and sheened in sweet soy, and Spanish bluefin otoro ($8) coiffed with scallions. It was the stuff

Jiro’s dreams were made of.

Most of what we popped into our yaps — with our hands, naturally — lulled us into a blissful, briny haze (in between swigs of Night Swim sake, of course). We tried

torched and non-torched forms of luscious Faroe Island salmon ($4; $5), leaning ever so slightly toward the seared Kewpie version, then madai ($5) graced with lemon zest and sea salt, followed by shima aji ($5) embel lished with ginger and scallion.

At this point, we felt like Kevin Kline after he’s had his way with K-K-K-Ken’s fish tank in A Fish Called Wanda. (“I’m almost full. Almost.”)

Our sushi stand ended with hand rolls stuffed with blue crab, truffle Kewpie mayo and cucumber ($7.50), but our meal ended with enjoyable miso soup ($3.50) fashioned from the bones of fish used that day. Also enjoyable: the pace of our meal. It was fast, but leisurely, and not once did we ever feel rushed. That said, we never did find the key to the safety deposit box.

But we did find a few diamonds on a sub sequent visit and, this time, we were actually in a bit of a rush.

A half-hour is about all we had to devote to our meal, but that didn’t stop me from stress-testing the Edoboy system. I went easy and ordered not 12, but 11 items, including Maine scallop with truffle salt and lemon zest ($4.50), madai torched with uni butter and topped with lemon juice and sea salt ($6.50) and a hand roll comprising Faroe Island salmon, salmon roe and shiso ($7.50).

Chef Ty served each piece on a bamboo leaf, and we duly grabbed and gulped. The capper was uni ($10) recently harvested off the coast of Santa Barbara and served as a warship roll. It was fresh, sweet and creamy, and, honestly, one was not enough.

But time’s a-ticking and we need to head out so we pay up with about five minutes to spare, plotting our inevitable return. Edoboy, after all, is no one-night stand.

Sort Of — The Canadian series about a gender-fluid Pakistani bartender at an LGBTQ establishment gets a second season and introduces a brand-new character: a driven young relative who tries to save the bar from extinction. Listen, if what went on at the Copper Rocket a few years ago had been nearly this interesting, I would have worked in a reference to it every week. (HBO Max)

Troll — Netflix says: A fantasy monster movie about an ancient creature that emerges

A Wounded Fawn — Jakob’s Wife director Travis Stevens and star Sarah Lind reunite to tell the story of an art-gallery director whose new boyfriend is a serial killer. Hey, there’s one excuse the Orlando Museum of Art hasn’t tried yet. (Shudder)

PREMIERES FRIDAY:

Diary of a Wimpy Kid 2: Rodrick Rules — The exploits of wimpy Greg’s older brother are the focus of this animated kidlit adapta tion, which was previously brought to the screen in live action in 2011. Know what else was live in 2011? Your mom. (Disney+) Firefly Lane — This second season is the last for the Katherine Heigl/Sarah Chalke drama that follows a best friendship from the teenage years to middle age. Drat, and I was hoping the show would last long enough that I could see Imelda Staunton take over. Both roles. (Netflix)

Hot Skull — A dystopian sci-fi series takes us to the Istanbul of the future, where an epidemic of insanity is transmitted via human language. Listen, folks, William Burroughs meant some things purely as a metaphor. Now take that copy of Aja out of your ass. (Netflix)

Lady Chatterley’s Lover — Last year’s Princess Di, Emma Corrin, takes the lead in the umpteenth adaptation of D.H. Lawrence’s controversial novel. On TV at least, Corrin clearly now owns the character type of Upper-Class Adulteress You Root For. In the movies, meanwhile, they’re Wife Who Gets

Fucked Around on by Closeted Harry Styles. Can we still call that a helluva range? Or do we have to say “non-binary?” (Netflix)

My Unorthodox Life — In Season 2, ultra-Or thodox-Jew-cum-fashion-mogul Julia Haart and her family continue to adapt to their new situation as secular Manhattanites. “Y’all need to watch this too, I guess,” shrugs respected critic Kyrie Irving. (Netflix)

Pentatonix: Around the World for the Holidays — The popular a cappella group stars in a winter fantasy that takes them across the globe in search of inspiration. But first, they have to escape from a “magic mailroom” their manager has trapped them in. Listen, Queens of the Stone Age couldn’t come up with something this hallucinogenic. (Disney+)

Riches — This British drama series about the struggle for control of a cosmetics empire is premiering here three weeks before it makes its debut in the U.K. Which is only fair, since they got utter economic collapse first. (Amazon Prime)

Sean Patton: Number One — The comedian returns to his home town of New Orleans for a 90-minute set that covers his OCD and myriad other personal issues. Ninety minutes? That’s a heck of a long time to be on stage without rushing home to check the stove. (Peacock)

Slow Horses — The six episodes of Season 2 find Gary Oldman and his crew of intelli gence-community underachievers regretting their dealings with Russia’s criminal element. As opposed to the real world, where that never seems to turn out badly for anybody. (Apple TV+)

“Sr.” — Robert Downey Jr. pays tribute to the man who made him what he is today: his father and namesake. Partial credit if you thought the answer was either Kevin Feige or El Chapo. (Netflix)

Three Pines — Alfred Molina plays author Louise Penny’s Chief Inspector Gamache, seen here investigating a murder spree in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. See, Trudeau? That’s what happens when you piss off the Chinese. (Amazon Prime)

Your Christmas or Mine? — British paramours inadvertently have to spend Christmas in each other’s home town in a holiday romcom that capitalizes on the pronounced differenc es between Gloucester and Macclesfield. Ah, I can see it now: knowing grins lighting up every house in Little Rock. (Amazon Prime)

PREMIERES MONDAY:

Back in the Groove — Taye Diggs hosts a reality series that subverts ageist stereotypes by sending three 40-something women to the Dominican Republic to find love with guys in their 20s.

SLEIGH BELLS RING, ARE YOU LISTENING?

Violinist Lindsey Stirling tours her new Snow Waltz album, a modern update of the classic holiday songbook

BY ALAN SCULLEY

When 2022 arrived, violinist Lindsey Stirling was at a musical crossroads. She had created a unique sound for herself by merging classical and electronic music over the course of four previous studio albums. This sound had brought her considerable acclaim and popularity — with all four albums topping the dance and classical charts. But Stirling felt she had pretty much explored the farthest reaches of her classical/EDM fusion. It was time for a departure, time to find a new sound. But there was a problem.

“I was trying to work on my next original album and nothing was really coming. I was feeling a lot of blockage,” says Stirling. “I think, since COVID — I never felt inspired to write during COVID and then even as we were coming out of it, I still was like ‘I’m coming up blank.’”

That’s when her plans for 2022 took a detour.

“I took a session and did a holiday song,” says Stirling.

“And it just flowed so naturally and writing was fun again. So I was just like, you know what, this year is calling for a Christmas album. It’s just what I apparently wanted to do, even though I didn’t know that.”

The Christmas album in question is the newly released Snow Waltz. It’s Stirling’s second holiday release, following the 2017 album Warmer in the Winter.

“I decided to start working on it in February,” she says. “It kind of just flowed naturally. It came out fast, thank heavens, but I’m really proud of it.”

Snow Waltz is quite different stylistically and soni cally from Warmer in the Winter, which had lots of organic instrumentation, including full orchestrations, and felt more like a traditional Christmas album.

Snow Waltz, on the other hand, is more like Stirling’s four non-holiday albums, as it features more of an electronic sonic palette in which her violin takes center stage

as the lead instrument.

“I thought, you know, rather than me leaning so far into what I think Christmas has traditionally sounded like, I’m going to take a little bit of me and my sound that I’ve done for years and I’m going to kind of combine the two,” says Stirling. “So that was the attempt of this album.”

That sound fits nicely with the thematic vision Stirling had for Snow Waltz, where she wanted to inject a bit of Halloween spookiness into the festive sounds of the Christmas season.

“I had the idea to meld, like, Halloween has ended,” muses Stirling, “but the skeletons stuck around and accidentally discovered Christmas, and what would they think?”

The result on Snow Waltz is a decidedly modern and quite unique Christmas album. The spooky facet of the album emerges strongly on the title track, where Stirling’s violin works hand in hand with a haunting musical backdrop, on a ghostly treatment of “O Come, O Come Emmanuel” and on “Ice Storm,” which feels like a prelude to the impending cold, dreary days of winter.

But the happy spirit of Christmas is very much alive on familiar songs like “Sleigh Ride,” “Joy to the World,” which features some inventive elaboration on violin from Stirling, and “Feliz Navidad,” which gallops along to a south-ofthe-border beat, as well as the peppy original “Crazy for Christmas” (co-written by Stirling and Bonnie McKee) and “Magic,” a warm original that features David Archuleta on vocals.

Stirling began developing her musical and performing approach about 15 years ago. She first tried to break through by appearing on America’s Got Talent in 2010, showcasing her classical/EDM sound and her ability to dance while playing violin. But she was voted off the show, with judge Piers Morgan saying she was “not untalented, but you’re not good enough, I don’t think, to get away with flying through the air and trying to play violin at the same time.”

Stung by Morgan’s critique, but determined, Stirling launched her own YouTube channel. Her videos caught on, generating enough activity that she was signed by Lady Gaga’s manager, Troy Carter.

This led to the release of Stirling’s self-titled debut album in 2012. Three more albums — 2014’s Shatter Me, 2016’s Brave Enough and 2019’s Artemis — followed as she refined and sharpened her sound, did multiple tours and amassed several gold and platinum album certifications.

Stirling is excited to bring together her two holiday albums this fall on the latest edition of what’s becoming an annual Christmas tour. Once again, fans can expect a beautiful stage set, new choreography from Stirling and her dancers and some accomplished playing from Stirling.

“It’s been really fun to get to marry the two albums together and make it like a nice hybrid of what I think is kind of the best mix from both my first Christmas album and now my second one,” says Stirling.

“It’s a super fun show. It’s going to be really energetic. There’s also going to be some really sweet, like soft moments and then ending with like a big bang of stuff we’ve never done before, including some aerial routines we worked really hard to learn. I’ll be singing, but mostly playing the violin. It’s so fun.”

HOTTER THAN THE SUN

The Fusion Awards are back for round six, this year at the Abbey in South

Eola

BY SARAH KINBAR

The Fusion Awards, a program that celebrates local music, is happening this week. This year’s venue is the Abbey, after previous editions at Soundbar, which closed the doors of its downtown location last year. Another difference this year is the dress code: This is a masquerade ball and masks are required. Teddy Alexander and Jennifer Desire are hosting, and DJ Ayoo and Mdivelli are on sound.

To understand the Fusion Awards, you need to know its founder, Jennifer Desire, whose enterprise Fusion & Co. is multifaceted and includes frequent artist showcases. Having started in the music industry in 2014 and more recently working at the Atlanta record label Love Renaissance (dis tributed through Interscope), she has seen a lot. Her style of mentorship is to establish high standards for all of her

brand extensions: her showcases, awards programs and artist consulting.

Juan Gutti, an Orlando resident and guitar virtuoso, has performed at Fusion showcases more times than he can remember. He’s a regular.

“Every time I perform there, I feel like I have the opportu nity to be myself artistically and to play what I want to play. Its also great because I get to meet very talented people with whom I can collaborate eventually,” says Gutti.

The awards program is fed in part by Desire’s showcases, “but we’re not only giving awards to people that are within our platform … any artist in Orlando that’s doing something good has a shot at being celebrated,” Desire explains.

Here’s how the winners are chosen. First, Desire reached

out to the music community for nominations, asking numerous platforms with reach to make their suggestions. Once all the nominations were in and voting opened, each voter could vote once. Those interested had to register on the website in order to vote, which helped prevent cheating. The top five people in each of the 19 categories resulted from public voting. Desire closely reviewed those top fives to make sure they followed the guidelines: They must have at least three songs out and they must be registered to BMI or ASCAP. If not, they are knocked out in favor of the next on the list to meet the requirements.

After one more round of public voting, Desire and her board listened to the music of the final top three in each category based on the combined first- and second-round votes and deliberated carefully, ultimately deciding — based on quality — who won in each category, entirely confined to choosing from among the top three selected by the voters. The winners are announced at the awards show, and artists must be present to win.

Desire’s reasoning for strict rules is that she looks to elevate the creative community by showing them the way in which practices are more likely to lead to success.

Orlando doesn’t have a lot of “best practices” leader ship when it comes to music. Artists frequently use beats they don’t own, skip steps when building their platforms and dream big dreams that lack a business foundation. Desire knows that by establishing standards, she can help change that. Fusion & Co. has so much engagement with musicians in Central Florida that she’s able to make quite an impact.

LOCAL RELEASES

It’s been almost a full year since I’ve writ ten about Orlando no-wave standard-bearer Alien Witch. First, it’s because I wrote so much about their astonishing output in 2021, which averaged roughly an entire album per month. Second, it’s because 2022 has been somewhat fallow for this solo vehicle, with Dee Dee Crittenden shifting some focus into duo project Fabulous Weapon.

Of course, in Alien Witch terms, this rela tive lull has translated into four albums so far this year. Much of that material, though, has been more musical sketches rather than fully realized songs. However, the latest collection is single-mindedly cohesive, and it will pull you down into its dark rabbit hole like quick sand, slow and inexorable.

With a title that lyrically references the sketchy connection between Charles Manson and the Beach Boys, brand-new album Submission Is a Gift stays locked in a fever dream of droning deathrock over the course of 10 bloodletting tracks. From the pacing to the atmosphere, the album’s penetrating austerity is purposeful and strangely envel oping. As narcotic as it is nihilistic, this is the soundtrack of someone circling the psychic drain and beckoning you to follow.

Perhaps the album’s most salient spell is “Blood Witch” — a song that incidentally shares the name of one of my favorite fake bands (Graham Coxon’s ad hoc moniker for the soundtrack of Netflix’s I Am Not Okay With This). This is music so deathly seri ous that it makes most goth rock seem like Halloween LARPing.

Submission Is a Gift is available only on Bandcamp as a name-your-price download. It comes ahead of the upcoming launch of Pale Corpse Productions, Crittenden’s own DIY record label where most of their catalog will be issued, possibly along with other artists.

CONCERT PICKS THIS WEEK

Orange Blossom Revue: Unlike those mega-festivals that squeeze the depth out of the live experience with their crammed bills and manic proceedings, this annual roots music affair in nearby Lake Wales keeps the lineup tight and the pacing generous with full sets by each act. This format will pay major dividends this year since OBR has leveled up big-time with its deepest, most sterling roster to date.

Co-curated by host band the Wood Brothers, this outstanding bill features pre mier, alternative-leaning national names like swaggering country pistol Margo Price, mod ern soul savior Son Little, electrifying folk performer Langhorne Slim and homegrown indie-folk breakout Laney Jones, alongside Allison Russell, Neal Francis, Katie Pruitt, John R. Miller and Cat Ridgeway. Notably, proceeds from this event stay in the Lake Wales community to help underwrite art,

education, and recreation programming. (3 p.m. Friday, Dec. 2, and noon Saturday, Dec. 3, Lake Wales Park, $55-$250)

Remedy Tree: This St. Augustine combo are a roots act that threads a smart nee dle between young and old-time. They’re a string band that manage sweet, strolling folk songs and greased-lightning bluegrass burners with equal aplomb. Most impor tantly, they do it without resorting to the pop cutesiness of the folkie boy bands. (8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3, Blue Bamboo Center for the Arts, $25)

Exhumed, Hulder, Vitriol, Castrator: This stacked heavy-metal onslaught both slays and bucks the patriarchy. Decorated California death grinders Exhumed lead the charge with their full-blast attack and maxi malist gore jones, while Portland’s Vitriol will keep things breakneck with their blackened and blindingly technical death metal. Equal destruction will come via the women on the bill, from the titanic and medieval black metal of Hulder to the punishing death metal of New York’s Castrator. (7 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 3, Will’s Pub, $20)

Kaonashi, ASkySoBlack, Bloom Dream, Weak: Philadelphia’s Kaonashi are a dizzying post-hardcore whirlwind steeped in math, emo and all things diametrically opposed to easy listening. But their young supporting cast are at least as impressive. Fellow Philadelphians ASkySoBlack are a new band that deals in heavy, feeling rock that’s like Failure gone emo. Miami’s Bloom Dream wade into thicker waters with chunky shoegaze noise. Local hardcore band Weak are one of the more exciting new entrants into the area punk scene. (8 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 6, Will’s Pub, $15)

Christmas in the Park

Of all the holiday events in Orlando — and for that matter Florida — there’s really nothing like Christmas in the Park. Taking over Central Park in the heart of Winter Park in the early evening hours, the folks at the Morse Museum set up a dazzling array of their Tiffany windows (most with a sacred bent) throughout the park, lit dramatically and paired with the Bach Festival Choir and Brass Ensemble running through a program of holiday gems and chestnuts. Now in its 44th year, this is a tradition worth taking in. 6:15 p.m., Central Park, North Park Avenue and West Morse Boulevard, Winter Park, morsemuseum.org, free. — Matthew Moyer

Shrek Rave

Following on the heels of the Minion madness that accompanied the release of Minions: The Rise of Gru earlier this summer is the unserious saga of the touring Shrek Rave — a meme actualized. Ka5sh (the 5 is silent), founder and creator of the swamp soirée, brings myth and mire to Orlando for a surreal night of interspecies disco and fairytale fete. Green facepaint, ogre ears, linen garb, leather boots … so many new options for clubwear. Just remember to plan your costume carefully, as attendees are known to go allout impersonating their favorite fairytale characters at this latenight cosplay-adjacent rager. 9 p.m., The Beacham, 46 N. Orange Ave., foundationpresents.com, $25. — Nicolette Shurba

FRIDAY, DEC. 2

Slothrust

“I don’t want to be addicted to the noise, but when it goes away, I wanna die” — the opening to Slothrust’s latest and fifth studio album, Parallel Timeline, is quintessential Slothrust: lyrics that are riddles, bringing you just as many answers as questions, paired with a sound that’s equal parts bubblegum pop as relentlessly swirling noise. Vocalist Leah Wilbaum sings: “Empty out my cranium and eat some cereal, cut my sweet angelic face into a pie” and it’s this dark whimsy that Slothrust has mastered after more than 10 years. On their latest record, they expand their sound with even greater confidence. The Boston-born, New York-grown, Los Angelesbased band shares the stage with Orlando’s own Pauses and 0MPH. 8 p.m., The Henao Center, 5601 Edgewater Drive, foryourfriends.net, $15-$20. — Ida V. Eskamani

SATURDAY,

AFI

DEC. 3

Thirty years strong, AFI (an initialism for “A Fire Inside”) are burning bright and reliably dark. This House of Blues gig is the last show on the seminal band’s 2022 Bodies Tour. The tour is named after their 2021 release, the band’s 11th album. Such a massive discography makes for a live performance rife with nostalgia and surprises. Like notches on a door frame, one sure way to determine what punk generation someone belongs to is to ask what their favorite AFI album is. From 1995’s classic punk sound on Answer That and Stay Fashionable

KrampusFest

On the naughty/nice spec trum of behavior, most of us in Florida fall into the former category. So in a couple of weeks, proper punishments will be meted out at the Milk District’s KrampusFest. The annual holiday event throws the spotlight on Santa’s lesserknown European ride-or-die Krampus, infamous for admin istering comeuppance instead of gifts to bad children — in the form of coal, spankings or outright kidnapping. The daylong event features live music, food and beverages, seasonal vendors and the signature Krampuslauf parade and costume judging (and we can personally vouch for the quality and creativity therein).

Men I Trust

Indie band Men I Trust are ready to show Orlando how much they care. The Canadian group incorporates dream-

pop ether and electronic elements to create a sweetly sensory and hypnotic experience for listeners. Men I Trust were recently featured on NPR’s “Tiny Desk (Home) Concert” series and even performed their most recognizable hit, “Show Me,” on the Tonight Show. Garnering over 5 million listeners on Spotify alone, Men I Trust are quickly becoming a force to be reckoned within the indie scene. It’ll be “Hard to Let Go” of this band once you see them live. 8 p.m., House of Blues, Disney Springs, Lake Buena Vista, houseofblues.com, $$24-$67.

Eugene Chadbourne

Here’s a nice holiday surprise: A late addition to the Will’s concert calendar this week is inimitable DIY outsidermaestro Eugene Chadbourne. Through a decades-long career of avowedly sticking to the margins despite formidable multi-instrumental chops, Chadbourne has tried a little bit of everything — from noisy skronk to free jazz to high lonesome sounds — most of which has been high-quality and proudly self-released. What Chadbourne will do this time around is play ancient and mysterious folk-related music in tandem with bassist Dave Menestres. His 2019 set at (also) Will’s was a thing of skeletal wonder.
