Weekend Whats

What to Book: “In the 1920s, the richest people per capita in the world were members of the Osage Indian nation in Oklahoma. After oil was discovered beneath their land, they rode in chauffeured automobiles, built mansions, and sent their children to study in Europe. Then, one by one, the Osage began to be killed off.” A fast-paced and well-researched story about the Osage Murders and the birth of the FBI. Killers of the Flower Moon by David Grann. If you need more reading material for the holidays, Jason Kottke has a rundown of the best-of lists.

+ What to Shirt: This is the last time I’ll mention the NextDraft shirts available for only 14 bucks (I don’t make a cut, this is just about my need to be loved). The sale is just about to end, so score your favorite NextDraft shirts here, and be sure to check out all the other items at Cotton Bureau – my personal go-to t-shirt store.

+ What to Movie: If you’re looking for a good family movie this weekend, check out Jane, the documentary on Jane Goodall. It features amazing footage, a subtle but effective look at humanity’s impact on the environment, and provides a glimpse into the psyche of someone truly driven by their passions. Oh, and chimpanzees!

+ What to Watch: I don’t know how to describe Amazon’s new pilot Love You More. And I don’t want to. It’s better that you experience it cold (and without the kids in the room), as it’s unlike any show you’ve ever seen. It’s a trip. I really hope it gets picked up for a full season.
