Last week we wrote about a crocodile making itself at home on a Palm Beach golf course, and the distinct possibility that nothing can be done about it. “The Fish & Wildlife Commission says federal law will not allow removal of the croc, so please be cautious near our golf course ponds,” read a post on the Village of North Palm Beach Twitter. And, of course, y’all had some molten takes on it. @Sheilah Rich Well, that’s a croc of … @Victor Chin Magic always comes at a price … @Tara Miller It’s his golf course now. @Krista Pendleton This is a missed opportunity for a great headline. Like, “Cranky croc conquers country club.” @Jennifer Gassman Schneider Where’s the guy with the trash can? He’d take care of it. @Nic Crowley [Crocodiles] were almost killed off to the point of needing protection because people who had no experience with them were scared of large animals that hadn’t killed anyone yet. See: alligators, Florida panther/ cougar, indigo snakes (the saddest example). Don’t let ignorance get you by the balls. Last week we reported that an Orlando woman — Kidzya Rodriguez, 20 — was at Travis Scott’s Astroworld concert, where a crush of people in the audience left eight dead and many more injured, and later shared her experience on social media. “People were pushing and pushing,” she told a local TV station. “I could not move, I could not breathe.” Houston authorities revealed that the concert was declared a mass casualty event a full 40 minutes before the show was stopped. Though Rodriguez was able to escape the crush, she said that she feels “guilty” for walking away from the show. @Chase Gregory Our prayers go out to the families that lost a loved one. @Erik Lievano No offense to anyone who digs this type of music, but you won’t catch me in a packed-like-sardines–type concert crowd like this. If I inadvertently happen to go to a
‘TALKING TURKEY WITH TED’
show like this, I’m fine in the back looking at monitors. @Cary Padeli This is what always happens at these rap is crap shows. At Woodstock there were 10 times as many people over 3 days and no one died. Keep your children and grandchildren away from this garbage. Introduce them to rock & roll, real music. [Editor’s note: Three people died and there were more than 3,000 reported injuries at Woodstock ‘69.] @Izzy Nali Act like all u humans ain’t the devil in disguise, tf he just smart with it y complain when u already went and supported him lmao at y’all fake ass human. Last Tuesday we reported that Orlando city leaders opted to make e-scooters a permanent presence in the city. The City Council amended ordinances to the scooter share program — beyond making the pilot program permanent, the city made changes to allow for legal riding on the sidewalk. Your emotions were mixed. @Manuel Carmona As a business owner downtown these scooters are a constant hassle. Every day I find them thrown on the sidewalk and or thrown in bushes. I’m constantly having to pick them up to stand them as I have pride in my city and can’t walk past something just thrown on the ground. @Jes Elizabeth @Manuel Carmona It’s also a huge issue for people with mobility issues or disabilities. If someone is in a wheelchair they can be completely blocked. @Aaron Straub I live downtown and scooters are a great mode of transportation. Sure beats paying $20 to park my car three blocks away. @Floyd Welsh The popularity of e-scooters in urban areas around the world is becoming a preferred source of commuting for tourists and business travelers. Especially those without a vast subway or mass transit solution. Many cities have begun building lanes into downtown streets that provide for bikes and wheeled commuters to safely avoid pedestrians & automobiles. Hopefully Orlando will recognize this issue, and begin making the small adjustments needed to accommodate.

Marc Anthony given a key to the city, public schools in Orange County end employee mask mandate, and other news you may have missed last week. »
Latin music superstar Marc Anthony given key to the city

Orange County Public Schools end employee mask mandate
»
Suspect arrested in Pulse memorial arson
»
In a peaceful transfer of power, Orlando city officials last week handed singer Marc Anthony the key to the city, effectively putting the pop superstar in charge of the city’s government. Just kidding! The honorific was actually in recognition of Anthony’s philanthropic and charitable work. Before Anthony’s sold-out concert at the Amway Center last Tuesday night, he met with a group of local officials that included city commissioner Tony Ortiz. The singer was given both the Key to the City and a proclamation declaring Nov. 6, 2021 as Marc Anthony Day in Orlando. “I am grateful for the love and the energy that my Orlando fans proffer to me every single time I get to perform for them and it is an honor to receive this recognition from a city that has a special place in my heart,” said Anthony of his Orlando accolades. In an abrupt email to faculty and staff last Wednesday, Orange County Public Schools announced that face masks would be entirely optional for employees of the district starting Thursday, Nov. 11. The end of the faculty mask mandate was not discussed at the school board’s most recent meeting and the announcement seemed to come as a shock to OCPS employees. “OCPS showed extreme disrespect to every teacher, parent and the [teachers union] by issuing a oneday notice that masks would be optional for employees. There are individuals with underlying conditions — employees and students — who now have one-day notice to make decisions regarding their health,” said Orange County Classroom Teachers Association union president Wendy Doromal. The district allowed its mask mandate for students to expire on Oct. 30, over the protests of some parents groups. When reached by Orlando Weekly, representatives confirmed the change in policy but declined to comment further. Just days after a video showing a man setting fire to a section of the Pulse memorial was shared widely, the Orlando Fire Department said last week that an arrest had been made in the case. According to a release from the department, 64-year-old Mark Anthony Henson was arrested in connection with the fire and charged with felony criminal mischief. No one was hurt in the conflagration of sections of the memorial in October, but the OnePulse Foundation reported that two memorial banners and several tributes had been burned. In recent months, President Joe Biden signed a bill into law designating the Pulse nightclub as a national memorial.
In-N-Out burger chain opts for “Out” on potential Florida relocation It would appear that the fast-food chain with Bible verses on the packaging is not interested in relocating to the “Fauci-free” peninsula of the South. Late last week, In-N-Out officially declined an invitation to move its entire operation to Florida, following weeks of pandering from Gov. Ron DeSantis and CFO Jimmy Patronis after the company had a high-profile spat with California health departments over proof-of-vaccination requirements. “On Monday, Nov. 8, In-NOut Burger President Lynsi Snyder-Ellingson had a phone call with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis,” said In-N-Out Burger’s chief legal and business officer, Arnie Wensinger, in a press statement. “During that call, Gov. DeSantis graciously invited In-N-Out Burger to do business in the state of Florida. While we are thankful for the gracious invitation, In-N-Out Burger has no plans or intention to expand operations or move its corporate headquarters to Florida.”
SENATE REDISTRICTING DRAFTS PUT NEW CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IN CENTRAL FLORIDA Florida’s new 28th U.S. House district would be planted in Central Florida, west of the Osceola County and Polk County line, under initial redistricting proposals rolled out Wednesday by Senate staff members. Otherwise, most of the draft maps included few drastic changes from current congressional and state Senate districts. Senate staff members released four proposed congressional maps and four proposed Senate maps that will go before redistricting subcommittees this week. The once-a-decade redrawing of district boundaries will be a major issue during the 2022 legislative session, which starts in January, with new maps in place for next year’s elections. As in the redistricting process a decade ago, the Senate did not release proposed state House districts. The House is working separately on its own map proposals. The initial Senate proposals would accommodate the new Central Florida district by condensing districts to the east around Orlando and to the west in the Tampa region. However, they don’t appear to vastly alter two districts — District 7 held by Democratic Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy and District 13 held by Democratic Congressman Charlie Crist — that have received the most attention from pundits as potential targets for the Republicandominated Legislature to help flip U.S. House seats. Florida is gaining a 28th U.S. House seat because of population growth over the past decade. — By Jim Turner, News Service of Florida

HOLIDAY guide 2021
E
arlier this week, on a late evening walk to take in the downright — let’s face it — wintry weather here in the City Beautiful, we stumbled upon a lone holiday inflatable, some combination of Santa and a snowman. The cheerily lit lawn decoration seemed almost a herald for the holiday season that’s just around the corner. “Too early,” we sniffed huffily. But really, is it? After last year’s holiday-on-hold, perhaps it’s better to start early to make up for lost time. Maybe this year can be a year of seeing all the (vaxxed) relatives without anxiety, seeing things, doing things, trying even to be a little jolly and raise a glass of cheer … in public. If that’s where you’re at this year too, then lose yourself in this year’s Holiday Guide
of events and attractions and markets. As we put together this guide, we were honestly surprised just how much is going on this year. There’s something for all tastes and comfort levels across all manner of diversions and merriment, from the arts to commerce. We’ve also got pointers on things to do with family and friends who may be coming in to visit from out of town. (That felt surreal to type, by the way.) And as always, our special annual gift to you, the stalwart fan of the printed page, is some phantasmagorical wrapping paper that is sure to entrance and enhance any small gift offering. Have a tasty Thanksgiving, a merry Christmas and a happy Hanukkah. Love, your Orlando Weekly editors.

Universal’s Wizarding Worlds of Harry Potter
PARKING, LOTS
Unlike last year, when many seasonal celebrations were scaled back due to social distancing, this year Orlando’s theme parks are going all-out with new entertainment and returning favorites BY S ETH KUBERSKY
T
he final fun-sized candy bars had barely been handed out on Halloween night when Orlando’s theme parks began decking their halls, and even though Thanksgiving is still a week away, our area attractions are already celebrating Christmas. Unlike last year, when many of the traditional seasonal celebrations were scaled back due to social distancing, the parks are going all-out in 2021 with new entertainment and returning favorites. Here are some of the top holiday highlights to put on your wish list if you’re planning on visiting Central Florida’s big three resorts between now and Jan. 2, 2022.
WALT DISNEY WORLD As usual, the Magic Kingdom is ground zero for Walt Disney World’s holiday celebrations, with glowing garlands and a ginormous Christmas tree already gracing
Main Street U.S.A. This year, the real action is over in Adventureland, where the annual “Jingle Cruise” seasonal overlay has been extended to the new show scenes added during the Jungle Cruise’s recent renovation. The good news is that Disney is bringing back full-scale parades for the first time since the pandemic; the bad news is that you’ll need to shell out for tickets to the Very Merriest After Hours party in order to enjoy Mickey’s Once Upon a Christmastime Parade before Dec. 22, or to see Minnie’s Wonderful Christmastime Fireworks Show. Disney’s Hollywood Studios is once again holding daily motorcades starring St. Nick, as well as nightly projection shows along Sunset Boulevard, and Animal Kingdom’s entrancing artisan animal puppets have returned to Discovery Island. However, I’m most excited by the return of live entertainment to Epcot’s International Festival of the Holidays. Not only is the Candlelight Processional back — complete with celebrity narrators and a fully vaccinated
choir — but cultural performers have finally returned to World Showcase, including the Hanukkah storyteller and Chinese lion dancers. Finally, if theme park admission isn’t in your holiday budget, Disney Springs hosts a free Christmas tree stroll, complete with fake snow flurries on select nights. Better yet, take a hotel-crashing tour of the deluxe Disney hotels’ seasonal decor, starting with the elaborate gingerbread houses in the Grand Floridian and Contemporary resorts. UNIVERSAL ORLANDO In 2020, Universal Studios Florida smartly pivoted by turning their usual holiday parade into a safe walk-by display, but this year the full processional is back in action, including the iconic Macy’s balloons inspired by New York’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. Universal’s Holiday Tribute Store is also returning, with a twist: Super-fans of Earl the Squirrel (USF’s long-running Christmas decor Easter egg–turned–cult character) can have their caricature added to his “Wall of Fame” for $125; availability is limited. And you’ll find that many of the food festival booths installed for Halloween Horror Nights have hung around to serve new holiday treats. Over in Islands of Adventure, Grinchmas has taken over Seuss Landing, and the musical stage show has been shifted from its usual uncomfortable soundstage to the former Blue Man Group auditorium, providing a much more pleasant viewing experience. Of course, the Wizarding Worlds of Harry Potter in both parks are joining in the festivities with their usual seasonal stage shows, nighttime lighting displays on Hogwarts Castle and plenty of hot butterbeer. The Loews-operated hotels at Universal Orlando are marking the holidays with everything from the return of Portofino Bay’s paid Harbor Nights parties on the high end to tree and menorah-lighting ceremonies at the less pricey Endless Summer Resort. Locals can stay at that property right now for under $85 per night and get two days of park admission for the price of one; buy a Wendy’s soft drink before Dec. 16 for the discount code. SEAWORLD ORLANDO Ice Breaker — the anticipated new roller-coaster at SeaWorld Orlando — isn’t thawing out until spring, but the park has several new additions to warm up its winter lineup. The Holiday Reflections fountain and fireworks show has expanded into nightly performances; a new Elmo stage show joined the Christmas parade in Sesame Street Land; and a new Sounds of the Season concert series is taking over the Nautilus Theater. Old favorites like the Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer movie and meet-and-greet, the sparkling Sea of Trees display, and the Winter Wonderland ice skating show have all returned, and the holiday food booths around the park are offering two dozen new menu items. Sadly, one long-running SeaWorld tradition will not continue this year. O Wondrous Night, a nativity pageant that was most notable for its menagerie of live animals, is not on the performance schedule. Perhaps it’s for the best — have you ever tried to make a camel wear a face mask? u

DIM DIM SUM 4750 The Grove Drive, Windermere 407-217-6789 dimdimsumorlando.com $$
SUM UP
PHOTOS BY ROB BARTLETT
Dim Dim Sum brings a greatest-hits parade of Cantonese goodies to Windermere BY FAIYAZ KARA
D
im Dim Sum in Windermere might sound like Awkwafina’s next Comedy Central vehicle, but in fact, it’s a vehicle for the Isleworth set to feel like they’re getting a heavy dose of culture. You might not find the same clientele you’d see at dim sum stalwarts like Peter’s Kitchen, KaiKai, Lam’s Garden, Ming’s Bistro or Chuan Lu Garden, or would’ve seen at the recently closed Chan’s Chinese Cuisine, but you may get a glimpse of its former chef, Tony Yeung. Yeung manned the Chan’s kitchen for nearly a quarter century until its closure a year ago. Now’s he’s on easy street, offering a relatively terse and focused 40-item menu of dim sum’s greatest hits. But, c’mon, no chicken feet? What’s dim sum without that luscious suck of bone and collagen? I say to you, Windermere, stand up! Demand that Item 41 on the menu be chicken feet! Shout it from your clay-tiled rooftops! Yell it from your convertible Bentley Continental GTs! Then drop your Amex black card after enjoying some Cantonese small plates (not served from a cart, sadly) in Dim Dim Sum’s hardly dim, in fact quite bright confines. “This used to be a Spoleto Italian Kitchen,” notes my dining comrade. He’s right. We couldn’t help but notice that much of the
interior design, right down (or up) to the frying pan art feature dangling from the ceiling, remained. Also noticeable, at least for us, were the prices. Now, they likely won’t raise any eyebrows among those who live in the neighborhood, but seasoned dim-summiers may balk at dropping $6.50 for a trio of shrimp-pork siu mai dumplings or xiao long bao. More so given the cheesy funk of the former and the utter blandness of the latter. While there are no such fails in the bowl of cucumber and minced garlic, this bracing side comes in at $5.50. If you do get it, pop a chunk or two after downing some heftier fare, like the beef chow fun ($9.95) with a wonderful essence of wok, or some glistening hacked chunks of roast duck ($9.95). A perennial must-check on my dim-sum dine card are steamed rice rolls. Their delicate and slippery tubular casing can test a chef’s mettle (and test a chopstick
BY FAIYAZ KARA OPENINGS:
user’s dexterity). But the rolls here not only lacked that attractive translucence, the folding technique seemed hastily done as well. The deep pool of sweet soy sauce in which they sat only hastened their disintegrative qualities. Compared to the ones I enjoyed just three weeks ago at the kookily named Providential 9 in Markham, Ontario, they paled. Fried sesame balls ($5.50), on the other hand, were every bit the soft, chewy, greasy orbs they’re supposed to be. They’re a bit sweet, too, so if you don’t like mixing sweet and savory dim sum items, just move on to pan-fried turnip cakes ($5.50) or steamed pork dumplings and save the balls for later. That said, there are other sugary spheres to salivate over, namely the gorgeous black gold custard lava buns ($5.50) with their oozing cores, and the Mexican custard bun ($5.50), a Hong Kong staple. If you’re wondering what’s “Mexican” about it, the sweet bun was modeled after the Mexican concha by a couple who returned to Hong Kong after being expelled from Mexico. Hmm, that sounds like another vehicle for Awkwafina. Either way, order the$e bitche$. We gobbled them down, and you likely will too. Yeah, they’re on the pricier side, but hey, even in this neighborhood, you don’t need to be crazy rich to enjoy the Asian fare. fkara@orlandoweekly.com
After offering its superb barbecue at the now-shuttered Belicoso Cigars and Cafe in Mills Park, then being a resident food truck at À La Cart, Smoke & Donuts is going full brick and mortar. Look for their restaurant to open in spring 2022 in the old Kernel Encore Gourmet Popcorn space next to Se7en Bites … Also next spring, Pig Floyd’s Urban Barbakoa will open its second location in the former Bubbalou’s location on Lee Road after the latter closed, citing a “labor shortage.” Looking forward to that drive-thru … Winner of the No Loss for Words Award for Restaurant Names goes to Richard Blais, whose newest restaurant, Four Flamingos: A Richard Blais Florida Kitchen, will open in the old Hemingway’s space at the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress next month. Expect cuisine inspired by tropical flavors and ingredients from Florida, including native fruits, vegetables and seafood … Also next month, Tabla will open its third restaurant, in Lake Nona at 9971 Tagore Place … Cantina Catrina, a Día de Los Muertos-themed Mexican restaurant, will open at the entrance of the dining pavilion at the Florida Mall this winter. This is the second Cantina Catrina in Florida — the original is at the Dadeland Mall in Kendall … Dennis Cha (Kaizen Izakaya, Soseki) is behind Uncle Dendog’s, a food truck operation set up at Orlando Brewing. Uncle Dendog’s specializes in Korean-style hot dogs and globally inspired street food … Black Rooster Taqueria’s Curry Ford location has soft opened. Soft opening hours are TuesdaySaturday from 5-10 p.m. When they fully open, hours will mirror that of the Mills 50 original and feature brunch items as well.

SHIN JUNG KOREAN RESTAURANT A longtime mainstay of Mills 50 is back and better than ever. Shin Jung, known since 1993 for its interactive dining experience, has reopened after a twoyear closure following a fire. Start with the dumpling sampler and saucy, spicy tteokbokki rice dumplings. Then grill the house specialties, kalbi and bulgogi, along with unlimited banchan, salad and sticky rice. Finish with hotteok, sweet Korean pancakes stuffed with nuts and drizzled with caramel. Closed Monday. (reviewed Nov. 10) 1638 E. Colonial Drive, 407-2370451, shinjungkoreanbbq.com, $$$

[ film + tv ] on HBO Max with the pricier ad-free plan. Your own father would tell you to go with what’s cheaper, but his ass has never been to Wimbledon. (HBO Max) The Line — Remember Eddie Gallagher, the Navy SEAL who committed all manner of atrocities but got off with a slap on the wrist? Find out how that sort of thing happens in a probing four-part docuseries. It would have been eight, but Kyle Rittenhouse already had the research he needed. (Apple TV+) The Mind, Explained — In Season 2, we learn how the human brain responds to forces like QAnon propaganda. And here you thought that would be the province of a show called The Spleen. (Netflix) Prisoners of the Ghostland — The 1,003rd Nic Cage movie released this year casts Mr. Restraint as an outlaw forced to rescue the granddaughter of a high-ranking official from an enclave of misfits. Astute genre-heads have pointed out an awkward similarity to Escape From New York/L.A., but since it’s a Nic flick, I’m sure it owes nearly as much to delusional psychosis. (Shudder)

New shows you won’t want to miss during your holiday streaming fest by Steve Schneider PREMIERES WEDNESDAY: Marvel’s Hit-Monkey — Following in the tiny footsteps of M.O.D.O.K., Hulu mines more Marvel obscuranta for laughs. Folks, it’s just a matter of time until we get the Millie the Model of our dreams. (Hulu) Tiger King 2 — Hey, look! Just in time for the second season of his show, Joe Exotic has a new book and cancer. Meanwhile, all that poor hitman can manage is a pamphlet and post-nasal drip. (Netflix)
PREMIERES THURSDAY: Chrisley Knows Thanksgiving — Spend the holiday with a bunch of dysfunctional Southerners who have more money than sense. Or you could skip your family dinner and watch this show instead! (Peacock) Craftopia Season 2B — There’s one thing that could maintain the relevance of this kids’ crafting series as it drops a bunch of new episodes. And I think we all know what that is: a crossover with Squid Game. (HBO Max) Comedy Chingonas — Top Latina talent takes the mic in a stand-up special shot at the 2021 HA Comedy Festival. “You ladies are going to clean up tonight,” said Ted Cruz, speaking literally. (HBO Max) The Curse of Von Dutch — Somebody heard we like documentaries about illfated retail enterprises, so here’s another one. Now do Toys R Us, because I always thought that Geoffrey had “embezzler” written all over him. (Hulu) Dogs in Space — Haley Joel Osment provides the lead voice in an animated series about canines sent into space to find a new home for humanity. In other words, it’s like Interstellar if Matthew McConaughey peed on stuff. (More often.) (Netflix)
The Princess Switch 3: Romancing the Star — The royal galpals have to work with an old enemy to retrieve a priceless jewel that belongs to the Vatican. Oh, please: The Pope has so much bling he wouldn’t notice if somebody sneaked in while he was sleeping and removed his gold-plated gallbladder. (Netflix)
Everybody Loves Natti — A six-episode reality series shows how Dominican reggaeton sensation Natti Natasha completed her latest album while pregnant with her manager’s baby. Right, and we’re all supposed to act like that’s the first time an artist got fucked by her manager. (Amazon Prime)
Psych 3: This Is Gus — While the title sidekick prepares to get married, he and his fake-psychic buddy seek the hard truths about his fianceé’s shady ex. The reveal we’re all hoping for: a clandestine throuple with Rizzoli & Isles. (Peacock)
Extinct — In an animated fantasy that’s already played theatrically in Russia, China and the U.K., a pair of donutshaped creatures are transported from the Galapagos of the 19th Century to the Shanghai of today. Good thing they didn’t land at Krispy Kreme, or they’d end up in the belly of everybody with a vax card. (Netflix)
The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip — A septet of series all-stars go on vacation together to see what kind of trouble they can get up to in Turks and Caicos. If it’s an international incident you’re hoping for, bet on the two from New Jersey. (Peacock) The Sex Lives of College Girls — Show creator Mindy Kaling has taken pains to point out that her new series about carnally active freshmen isn’t purely autobiographical. I’d joke that it sounds like she was doing the wrong research, but I don’t have much of a GPA in that area to show off either. (HBO Max) Sort Of — Canada sends us a sitcom about a nonbinary millennial of Pakistani heritage who works in an LGBTQIA+ bookstore. Listen, I don’t even care if it’s really a show, as long as Dr. Laura thinks it is. (HBO Max)
PREMIERES FRIDAY: Cowboy Bebop — John Cho plays the title role in a live-action adaptation of the anime classic. Total tangent here, but isn’t it something that Cho played Sulu yet he’s the half of Harold & Kumar that isn’t gay? I mean, we could only wish the rest of life were that symmetrical. (Netflix)
The Wheel of Time — Robert Jordan’s fantasy novels become a series about an elite society of women who are all capable of working magic. The most visible sign? Everything they wear has pockets. (Amazon Prime)
PREMIERES TUESDAY: Masters of the Universe: Revelation — Kevin Smith caught a lot of flak for killing off He-Man in his sequel series to the beloved 1980s cartoon, but Eternia’s answer to Rocky Horror is back from the dead in Season 2. And that’s a good thing, because those episode-ending life lessons really lost something when they were delivered by Silent Bob. (Netflix)
The Great — Catherine the Great is pregnant as Season 2 commences — and of course my first impulse is to blame her manager. But with Gillian Anderson added to the cast as Catherine’s mother, maybe we shouldn’t rule out aliens. (Hulu) Harriet the Spy — Beanie Feldstein is the voice of Harriet and Jane Lynch is her nanny in an animated series based on in the book about an inquisitive tween’s attempts to become a writer. The period setting means they didn’t have to retitle it Harriet the Unemployable. (Apple TV+) Hellbound — South Korea is the source of a fantasy series about angels who appear on Earth to rain down hellfire and damnation upon mortals whose behavior has earned it. As Joe McCarthy once said, I have here in my hand a list … (Netflix) King Richard — How has Hollywood chosen to celebrate the landmark accomplishments of Venus and Serena Williams? By making a movie about their dad! Will Smith plays papa Richard Williams in a biopic you can see in theaters or watch orlandoweekly.com
Tick, Tick … Boom! — Lin-Manuel Miranda directs Andrew Garfield in an adaptation of the late Jonathan Larson’s autobiographical musical. In a new sequence added just for the film, Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland show up to warn Garfield’s Jon that Rent doesn’t really need to ever be a movie. (Netflix)
●
Reasonable Doubt: A Tale of Two Kidnappings — The problems of the Mexican legal system are explored in a documentary that begins with a simple traffic accident. Learn all about it in this program brought to you by the law firm of Morgana y Morgana. (Netflix) The Strings — A rock musician who’s recently gone solo retreats to a remote cottage, only to find herself pursued by a mysterious and malevolent force. On the bright side, she’s a lesbian, so we can probably rule out Natti Natasha’s manager. (Shudder) Waffles & Mochi’s Holiday Feast — The former First Lady of the United States brings us a heartwarming special about a yeti with waffles for ears who has to make dinner for a talking mop. No, that isn’t a sentence I ever thought I’d hear either. But why d’ya think they call them edibles? (Netflix) NOV. 17-23, 2021 ● ORLANDO WEEKLY

Unlikely Christmas hitmakers Trans-Siberian Orchestra return to Orlando with their signature holiday show BY ALAN SCULLEY
L
ast year, Trans-Siberian Orchestra was forced to cancel in ’96. The people fell in love with the characters. They fell their signature annual project — the holiday tour of in love with the story. They fell in love with the sentiment of North American arenas that typically draws more than it. Because at the end of the day, the center of Paul’s story is about missing somebody, and everybody misses somebody, a million fans. To help fill the void, TSO put together a livestream concert. especially around the holidays. “I think during the livestream, it showed me, in particular, Scaling the show down from an arena where TSO deploys a spectacular light show and all manner of pyrotechnics two things,” Pitrelli concluded. “One is that people, they love and special effects to something that works on a TV or the story.

After all, when we had, I don’t know, seven or eight cities on the tour,” Pitrelli O’Neill founded the project, he envisioned something new said in a teleconference interview shortly before rehearsals and unproven in contemporary music. for their tour began.

It was a beautifully written story that Paul mentalists who would remain largely anonymous to listeners. O’Neill put pen to paper back in ’95, and we started recording How to market the group was a big question. The albums
would require big budgets, and to be financially viable, the tours would need to play arenas from the start — something few music acts had pulled off. Nevertheless, Atlantic Records got on board with O’Neill’s vision and signed TSO. The label’s faith has been rewarded as the trilogy of Christmas albums became hits that continue to rack up big sales every holiday season. The first release was Christmas Eve and Other Stories. Spurred by the hit single “Christmas Eve Sarajevo 12/24,” it has sold three million copies. The other two holiday rock operas that make up TSO’s Christmas trilogy — The Christmas Attic (1998) and The Lost Christmas Eve (2004) — have both topped 2 million copies sold. In addition, the group has released a Christmas EP, 2012’s Dreams of Fireflies (on a Christmas Night), and three full-length non-holiday albums — Beethoven’s Last Night (2000), Night Castle (2009) and Letters From the Labyrinth (2015). In all, the group’s CDs and DVDs have sold more than 12 million copies and the Christmas tour plays to nearly a million fans each year. This year, as in 2019, TSO’s show will feature the Christmas Eve and Other Stories album as a first set, followed by a selection of other material in the second set. That 1996 debut album was played for a dozen years when TSO started touring, then was set aside to feature the other albums in the Christmas trilogy on subsequent tours. Bringing back the album that began the TSO journey has been special for Pitrelli and Plate. “Yes, this is my favorite show,” said Plate, who joined Pitrelli for the teleconference. “I’ve said all along, I think this story is really the star of the show. This is what kept bringing people back every year … when people connected with the story and realized it’s about them. It’s about everybody. This is just how people, just word of mouth, kept coming back. These audiences kept building every year. This [was] our first venture with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Christmas Eve and Other Stories, so this has a lot of meaning. It’s very special for all of us. The songs, the story, [everything] about it, I think is fantastic.”

To mellow the harsh we’ve all been suffering, Orlando’s psychedelic true believers Timothy Eerie have dropped a new song, “We’re Going to Make It,” breezing in on a cloud of Technicolor optimism All love to those hurt by the senseless Astroworld tragedy.

Jonesy Music Volume Two release party: After debuting their first music release over the summer, the Jonesy Collective — the nonprofit Orlando group that coalesced to honor the memory of fallen electronic scene figure Alex Hwang Jones — is already set to unveil a follow-up EP with this release event. The musical lineup is a statewide sampling of electronic experimentalists including BoHemian, Fowl Play, Funkshway, Oozoo and Vanguard. Besides music, expect it to be a fully immersive art happening with familial vibes. The beneficiary of this event’s proceeds will be local LGBTQ+ youth support organization the Zebra Coalition. Good music, great causes. (8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 18, Sound Garden at Henao Contemporary Center, $10-$15) Chris Stapleton’s All-American Road Show: With an aesthetic that blends classic and forward sensibilities, Stapleton is both a product of and an antidote to Nashville. But the above-ground surge of artists like him gives hope that country music at large hasn’t completely sold its soul. This triumphant tour’s also been noteworthy for the revolving door of impressive openers, and the Orlando stop will feature Sheryl Crow and fellow Nashville country traditionalist Kendell Marvel. (6 p.m.
It’s time to unpause your education.
Thursday, Nov. 18, Amway Center, $46.75-$620) Big Freedia: It wasn’t until 2018 that the undisputed Queen of Bounce finally appeared on an Orlando stage. But between Freedia’s big presence and her superhuman shake team, that glorious debut was a circus maximus of the gluteus maximus, an all-out explosion of beats and butts that was one of the hypest shows that year. With Freedia’s ever-rising star, best believe that the spank and dazzle will pop off even brighter in this return. There’s even a $50 Meet & Greet add-on option in case you want to be in her royal court for the night. (8 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 21, Will’s Pub, $25-$28) AAHZ Reunion: Seminal dance party AAHZ laid the foundation early on to position Orlando at the vanguard of the global rave revolution in the 1990s. And with the appearance of DJs Icey and Baby Anne — the king and queen of Florida breaks — on the lineup alongside AAHZ residents Kimball Collins and Dave Cannalte, this edition of their annual reunion events skews toward the homegrown signature sounds that blossomed from that movement. (9 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 24, The Beacham, $30-$55) baolehuu@orlandoweekly.com

It’s been over two years since Orlando neo-psych band Timothy Eerie released any music. Oh, but what a couple years it’s been — you know, only some of the most clenched, anxious times seen in generations. Yes, we could all use a pill right now. As if hearing that call like a trusty dealer, these psychedelic true believers have just re-emerged with a new single. To mellow the harsh we’ve all been suffering, “We’re Going to Make It” keeps it lifted and on the sunny side by breezing in on a cloud of Technicolor optimism. The beckoning four-minute escape is now streaming everywhere. And this week, you can hear it live when they open for Surfer Blood (8 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 20, Will’s Pub, $15 advance or $17 day of show). Once you land back in hard reality, though, you should probably armor up. To that end, dive into the recently released Sancocho by Orlando punk band the TransDimensionalizers. Their sophomore work and first release in three years, this six-song mini-album is a straight dose of system-sick punk rock that peppers in just enough angular cuts, tempo shifts and a dash of punk en español to keep things interesting. It’s out on streamers now. C.B. Carlyle & the Desert Angels are a promising young band from Lake County that’s only begun to emerge this year with a particularly atmosphere-rich brand of country music. Rather than our native swamps, their sound instead evokes wide Western horizons. Their swooning new single, “Sweet Violence,” is one of the best examples yet of the high country drama that this band is making a name with. It’s currently a name-your-price download on Bandcamp.

“RE-RUNS”
My husband left the picture recently, and I’m now a single mom supporting an infant in Toronto. I work a retail job and am drowning financially. I hooked up with a guy I met on Tinder, and I didn’t warn him that I’m still nursing because I didn’t even think of it. Luckily, he really got off on it — so I was spared the awkwardness of “Eww, what is coming out of your tits?!” Afterward, he joked about there being a market for lactating women in the kink world. My questions: If I find someone who will pay me to suckle my milk, is that prostitution? And if I advertise that I’m willing to be paid, can I get into trouble for that? The possibility of making some money this way is more appealing every day. Truly In Trouble “Allowing clients to suckle her breasts is, of course, sex work,” said Angela Chaisson, a partner at Toronto’s Paradigm Law Group. “But sex work is legal for everyone in Canada, new moms included. The new sex work laws here — the 2014 ‘Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act,’ an Orwellian title for a draconian piece of legislation — prohibit sex work close to where minors might be. So if she’s engaging in sex work close to kids, she is risking criminal charges.” No one wants sex work going on around minors, of course — on or around minors — so that’s not what makes the ‘Protection of Communities and Exploited Persons Act’ an Orwellian piece of bullshit. Laws regulating sex work in Canada were rewritten after Terri-Jean Bedford, a retired dominatrix and madam, took her case to the courts. The Supreme Court of Canada ultimately ruled — unanimously — that criminalizing sex work made it more dangerous, not less, and consequently the laws on the books against sex work violated the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms. But instead of decriminalizing sex work, Parliament made it legal to sell sex in Canada but illegal to buy it, aka the “end demand” approach to stamping out sex work. “By making a sex worker’s body the scene of a crime,” writes sex worker and sex-workers-rights activist Mike Crawford, “the ‘end demand’ approach gives cops full license to investigate sex workers, leaving sex workers vulnerable to abuse, extortion and even rape at the hands of the police.” Chaisson, who helped bring down Canada’s laws against sex work, doesn’t think selling suckling will get you in trouble, TIT. “But Children’s Aid Society would investigate if they felt there was a child in need of protection,” said Chaisson. “So the safest thing would be for her to stick to outcalls only and to keep the work away from kids and anywhere they might be.” To avoid having to worry about CAS or exactly where every kid in Canada is when you see a client while still making some money off your current superpower, you could look into the online market for human breast milk. There are more ads from breast milk fetishists (204) at onlythebreast. com (“Buy, sell, or donate breast milk with our discreet classifieds system”) than there are from new parents seeking breast milk for their infants (159). Good luck! My husband and I have a pretty good sex life considering we are raising three kids, we both work full time and I’m going to school. We have sex four to five times a week, sometimes daily. Before we married, it never occurred to
me to check what he was looking at online. Now I can’t stop. I know he looks at porn and masturbates. I never check his phone or his Facebook or anything like that, just what he has Googled. How can I let go and be more confident and believe that, regardless of his personal habits, he still wants me? He says it’s not personal, it’s when I’m not available and it’s a good way to take a nap. I trust him and don’t think he’s doing anything wrong, but how do I feel OK with it? Sees Problems On Understanding Spouse’s Electronics
I’m male, 30 and newly single. I’ve been using my newfound freedom to sleep around, and last week I had sex with a married woman. Yes, she was cheating. Yes, I was aware. There won’t be any future sexual encounters with this woman, but here’s the thing I was wondering about: I don’t feel guilty, not one bit. This fuck was a strong contender for best fuck of my life. Does that make me a bad person? And if so, do I just accept the fact that I’m a bad person? Basically A Dastardly Dick, Yes?
You don’t have a good sex life, SPOUSE, you have a great sex life. You two are raising three kids, you’re getting sex on an almost daily basis and at least one of you is getting naps? You’re the envy of all parents everywhere. It’ll put your mind at ease if you remind yourself now and then that no one person can be all things to another person — sexually or in any other way — and that the evidence your husband still wants you is running down your leg four to five times per week. Now please pass the paper/tablet/phone to your husband, SPOUSE, I have something to say to him. Hey, Mr. SPOUSE, here’s a handy life hack for you: CLEAR YOUR FUCKING BROWSER HISTORY. Use the “private browsing” or “incognito” setting in your web browser, and spare your wife — and yourself — future scrutiny and smutshaming.
Fucking someone you know to be cheating implicates you in an infidelity, of course, and that’s usually bad — but not always. In some cases, cheating is the least worst option for all involved (the cheater, the cheated, their dependents); in others, cheating saves marriages that needed saving; in still others, cheating ends marriages that needed ending. Absent more info about this woman’s particular circumstances, BADDY, I can’t make a definite ruling about her badness for cheating or your badness for aiding and abetting.
Via text I asked my (gay) husband of 10 years if he had any sexual fantasies he hadn’t shared with me. He replied, “I want to cheat on you.” I was out of town when we had this text exchange. He wrote the next morning to apologize. He said he was tipsy when I texted him and didn’t mean what he said. I explained that I wasn’t upset but turned on: If he wanted to sleep with other people, he could, provided it was someone safe and not someone in our social circle. The idea of being cheated on, frankly, appeals to me. (That makes me a gay cuckold, correct?) I even told him I jerked off about it already. He did not react the way I expected. He got upset and said he thinks about cheating on me only when he’s drunk and he would never want to do it in real life and he’s angry that I would want him to. Advice? Chump Under Cloud Keeping Silent Years ago, my then-boyfriend cheated on me while I was out of town. He didn’t like my reaction when he confessed (“Was he cute? Can we have a three-way?”) and got angry at me for not being angry with him. We wound up having a fun threesome with the other guy shortly before we broke up for other reasons, CUCKS, and I suspect the day will come when your husband fucks someone else — if he hasn’t already — with your permission, which means it’ll be cuckolding, not cheating. Just apologize for now, roll your eyes when he’s not looking and bide your time. And speaking of gay cuckolds … Way, way back in 2008, a reader asked why I described cuckolding as a straight male fetish. “The cuckolding fetish is the boner-killing lemons of straight male sexual/paternal insecurity turned into deliciously perverted bonerade,” I responded. “Gay sex doesn’t make babies, only messes (which is all straight sex makes 99.98 percent of the time). Which may explain why, as a general rule, gay men aren’t as threatened when our partners are ‘taken’ by other men.”
Mid-20s female here, ready to date after a period of difficulty in my personal life. I have started taking an antidepressant, which has allowed me to regain control over my life, but one side effect is difficulty having orgasms. People can be judgey when it comes to antidepressants, and it’s not something that’s easy to share. It’s frustrating because this medication allows me to be in a place mentally where I can pursue healthy adult relationships, but it affects sex, which for me is something that is key for a healthy relationship. How do I have a conversation about this with a potential partner? Hopeful About Potential Partners, Yay You can put off the convo about your meds with a white lie, HAPPY, by telling your potential partner you never come the first few times you’re with someone new — no pressure on you to come (or come clean just yet), no pressure on them to make you come. Then level with them about the real reason you’re having difficultly coming — new to antidepressants, still adjusting, but grateful for the other benefits — after you’ve gotten to know them better. It’s a harmless, understandable white lie, not a major betrayal. If they react like it is one, HAPPY, then you’ll have to DTMFA. Straight 64-year-old man wanting to try the gay side of life!!!

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Aries poet and philosopher Friedrich Hölderlin (1770–1843) had many ups and downs. He was one of Germany’s greatest poets and philosophers, but he also endured more emotional distress than most people. His biographer wrote, “Sometimes this genius goes dark and sinks down into the bitter well of his heart, but mostly his apocalyptic star glitters wondrously.” You may have been flirting with a milder version of a “bitter well of the heart,” Aries. But I foresee that you will soon return to a phase when your star glitters wondrously — and without the “apocalyptic” tinge that Hölderlin harbored. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Author David Foster Wallace felt sad about how little of our mind’s intense activity can be shared with others. So much of what goes on inside us seems impossible to express. Or if it is possible to express, few of our listeners are receptive to it or able to fully understand it. That’s the bad news, Taurus. But here’s the good news: In the coming weeks, I believe you will experience much less of this sad problem than usual. I’m guessing you’ll be especially skilled at articulating your lush truth and will have an extra receptive audience for it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “I never resist temptation,” declared playwright George Bernard Shaw. Why did he dare to utter such an outlandish statement? “Because I have found that things that are bad for me do not tempt me,” he said. I propose that you aspire to embody his attitude during the next eight weeks, Gemini. Make it your aspiration to cultivate a state of mind wherein you will only be tempted to engage with influences that are healthy and educational and inspiring. You can do it! I know you can! CANCER (June 21-July 22): While still a teenager, Cancerian cowboy Slim Pickens (1919–1983) competed in the rodeo, a sporting event in which brave athletes tangle with aggressive broncos and bulls. When America entered World War II, Pickens went to a recruiting office to sign up for the military. When asked about his profession, Pickens said “rodeo.” The clerk misheard and instead wrote “radio.” Pickens was assigned to work at an armed forces radio station in the American Midwest, where he spent the entire war. It was a safe and secure place for him to be. I foresee a lucky mistake like that in your near future, Cancerian. Maybe more than one lucky mistake. Be alert. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): To create your horoscope, I’ve borrowed ideas from four famous Leos. They all address
your current astrological needs. First, here’s Leo author P.L. Travers: “More and more I’ve become convinced that the great treasure to possess is the unknown.” Second, here’s Leo author Sue Monk Kidd: “There is no place so awake and alive as the edge of becoming.” Third, Leo poet Philip Larkin: “Originality is being different from oneself, not others.” Finally, Leo author Susan Cheever: “There is no such thing as expecting too much.” VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I encourage you to adopt the perspective expressed by spiritual author Ann Voskamp. She wrote, “I want to see beauty. In the ugly, in the sink, in the suffering, in the daily, the moments before I sleep.” I understand that taking this assignment seriously could be a challenging exercise. Most of us are quick to spot flaws and awfulness, but few have been trained to be alert for elegance and splendor and wondrousness. Are you willing to try out this approach? Experiment with it. Treat it as an opportunity to reprogram your perceptual faculties. Three weeks from now, your eyes and ears could be attuned to marvels they had previously missed. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran educator and anthropologist Johnnetta Cole wrote, “The first sign of an educated person is that she asks more questions than she delivers answers.” I agree and would also say this: A prime attribute of an intelligent, eager-to-learn person is that she asks more questions than she delivers answers. I encourage you to be like that during the coming weeks, Libra. According to my astrological estimation, you are scheduled to boost your intelligence and raise your curiosity. An excellent way to meet your appointments with destiny will be to have fun dreaming up interesting questions. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Some people become so expert at reading between the lines they don’t read the lines,” wrote author Margaret Millar. That’s not a common problem for you Scorpios. You are an expert at reading between the lines, but that doesn’t cause you to miss the simple facts. Better than any other sign of the zodiac, you are skilled at seeing both secret and obvious things. Given the astrological omens that will be active for you during the rest of 2021, I suspect this skill of yours will be a virtual superpower. And even more than usual, the people in your life will benefit from your skill at naming the truth. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Storyteller and mythologist Michael Meade believes that each of us has an inner indigenous person — a part of our psyche that
can love and learn from nature, that’s inclined to revere and commune with the ancestors, that seeks holiness in the familiar delights of the earth. The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to cultivate your relationship with your inner indigenous person. What other experiences might be available to you as you align your personal rhythms with the rhythms of the earth? What joys might emerge as you strive to connect on deeper levels with animals and plants and natural forces? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn novelist Haruki Murakami writes, “I was always hungry for love. Just once, I wanted to know what it was like to get my fill of it — to be fed so much love I couldn’t take any more. Just once.” Most of us feel that longing, although few of us admit it. But I will urge you to place this desire in the front of your awareness during the next two weeks. I’ll encourage you to treat your yearning for maximum love as a sacred strength, a virtue to nurture and be proud of. I’ll even suggest you let people know that’s what you want. Doing so may not result in a total satisfaction of the longing, but who knows? Maybe it will. If there will ever be a time when such fulfillment could occur, it will be soon. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): An article published in the journal Scientific American declared, “Most people don’t know when to stop talking.” Conversations between strangers and between friends typically go on too long. A mere 2 percent of all dialogues finish when both parties want them to. That’s the bad news, Aquarius. The good news is that in the coming weeks, your sensitivity about this issue will be more acute than usual. As a result, your talk will be extra concise and effective — more persuasive, more interesting and more influential. Take advantage of this subtle superpower! (Further info: tinyurl.com/whentostop) PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Since 1996, Ira Glass has produced the renowned radio series This American Life. In 2013, as a reward for his excellence, he was offered a raise in his annual salary from $170,000 to $278,000. He accepted it for one year, but then asked that it be lowered to $146,000. He described the large increase in pay as “unseemly.” What?! I appreciate his modesty, but I disapprove. I’m always rooting for Pisceans like Ira Glass to embrace the fullness of their worth and to be aggressive about gathering all the rewards they’re offered. So I’m inclined, especially right now, to urge you NOT to be like Glass. Please swoop up all the kudos, benefits and blessings you deserve. freewillastrology.com
