L.A.’s Blue Note Jazz Club Sets August Opening for ArcLight-Adjacent Location; Robert Glasper, Charlie Puth, Andra Day, Ben Folds, Branford Marsalis and Killer Mike Among Initial Lineup
After some delays, LA's new Blue Note Jazz Club is finally set to open its doors in Hollywood on August 14. The venue, next to the old ArcLight, has locked in a star-studded lineup including Robert Glasper, Charlie Puth, Andra Day, and even Killer Mike—mixing jazz, soul, and hip-hop for a diverse kickoff. Shows are booked well beyond the opening, so music lovers won’t run out of reasons to visit.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another jazz club opening—it’s a big deal for LA’s music scene. The Blue Note brand carries serious weight, and landing acts like Glasper and Marsalis signals this spot could become a cultural hub. Plus, with big names from outside traditional jazz (looking at you, Charlie Puth), it might pull in fresh crowds who wouldn’t normally hit a jazz venue. For a city still bouncing back from pandemic-era closures, a splashy new stage is welcome news.

positiveEntertainment
Dominique Thorne is back as Riri Williams in Marvel’s Ironheart, bringing fresh energy to the genius inventor’s story. This Disney+ series picks up after her Black Panther: Wakanda Forever debut, shifting the action to her hometown of Chicago. Expect a sleeker, smarter Iron suit and a deeper dive into Riri’s personal struggles—balancing high-stakes heroics with the weight of being a young prodigy.

New York City Mayor Shocker: Zohran Mamdani’s Commanding Lead Causes Andrew Cuomo to Concede in Primary Race
positiveEntertainment
In a surprising twist, State Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani has surged ahead in the New York City Democratic mayoral primary, forcing former Governor Andrew Cuomo—once seen as a heavyweight contender—to bow out early. With nearly all votes tallied, Mamdani holds a solid 43.5% lead, leaving rivals scrambling even before ranked-choice calculations kick in.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another primary update—it’s a seismic shift in NYC politics. Mamdani’s rise signals a potential changing of the guard, while Cuomo’s early exit hints at fading influence post-scandal. For voters, it’s a clear message: the city’s political landscape might be tilting toward new voices, fast.

Editor’s Note: Remember when Squid Game took over the internet? This isn’t just about another season—it’s proof that Korean content isn’t just a trend but a powerhouse reshaping global entertainment. Netflix’s heavy investment signals more high-quality K-dramas, films, and surprises coming our way. If you’re into storytelling that crosses borders, this is your cue to get excited.
Baldoni will not amend lawsuit; Blake claims "TOTAL VICTORY"
neutralEntertainment
Blake Lively is claiming a "total victory" after Justin Baldoni dropped his $400 million countersuit against her when a judge dismissed it. Baldoni’s team insists the dismissal doesn’t mean they’re backing down—they might still explore other legal options. Meanwhile, Lively’s original lawsuit against Baldoni is still moving forward, keeping this legal battle alive.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just another Hollywood feud—it’s a high-stakes legal showdown with millions on the line. While Lively’s camp is spinning this as a win, Baldoni’s team isn’t throwing in the towel yet. The fact that her original lawsuit is still active means this drama is far from over, and it could set precedents for how celebrity disputes play out in court.
Viu & SBS’ ‘Taxi Driver’ Season 3 Set To Air In Q4; ‘My Youth’ Starring Song Joong-Ki Will Premiere In Q3 — APOS
positiveEntertainment
Fans of the hit Korean drama Taxi Driver can mark their calendars—Season 3 is confirmed to drop in the last quarter of this year. Lee Je-hoon is back in the driver’s seat, joined by familiar faces like Kim Eui-sung and Pyo Ye-jin. Meanwhile, Song Joong-Ki fans have something else to look forward to: his new series My Youth is set to premiere earlier, in Q3. Both shows will stream globally on Viu (except in South Korea), keeping the K-drama hype train rolling.
Editor’s Note: K-drama lovers are in for a treat with two major releases lined up—Taxi Driver’s return ensures more high-octane vigilante action, while Song Joong-Ki’s My Youth taps into the nostalgia-driven romance trend. For international fans, Viu’s global rollout (minus Korea) means easier access, reinforcing the unstoppable spread of Korean content worldwide. If you’re into gripping stories and star power, 2024’s back half just got a lot more exciting.
