American Horror Story fans were in for a treat with this week's episode titled "Drink the Kool Aid". Technically it was a Halloween episode, although AHS didn't make reference to the holiday during the episode.

The episode begins as Kai (Peters) recounts the great history behind previous cults' mass suicides including Heaven's Gate, Waco, and Jim Jones. He then asks his followers would they be willing to make the ultimate sacrifice. Well would they?

Kai later proceeds to bring in a container of Kool Aid and several cups. The women (Porter, Lourd, Pill, and Paulson) are brought in and made to drink or be shot. Everyone in the room drinks and only then does Kai reveal there's no poison. He only wanted to test their faith.

Ally and Ivy (Paulson and Pill) finally speak once again after Ally shockingly joined the cult last episode. At first they seem to be getting along, that is until they are in their own house again. Ally lovingly makes dinner, pours wine, and discusses how she felt about Ivy's betrayal. Only then does she reveal she has actually poisoned Ivy and proceeds to watch her die.

Who the baby daddy? Fans may be asking this in regards to Ally's son Osmodeous, especially after last episode. Kai spins a web of tales to Ally saying that he was actually the sperm donor that Ally was impregnated with a few years ago. He wants to rattle and control her, although Ally turns the tables by doing her own investigating. She uncovers that Kai is NOT the father although she figures why not let him think he really is. So, she doctors her file to make it appear Kai really is the father and presents the file to him.

AHS fans only have a few more episodes left in this season. It will be interesting to see where this story leads. I have a few predictions myself!!

Eminem "Revival" Album Review

The best and worst Eminem record I've ever heard. Album Rating 3 out of 4. Song Rating System 4 out of 4 - Really liked 3 out of 4 - Liked 2 out of 4 - Didn't like 1 out of 4 - No response "Revival" is the ninth studio album by American rapper Eminem . The album was released on December 15th, 2017 through Aftermath Entertainment , Shady Records , and Interscope Records . ( Wikipedia ) 1. Walk On Water ( feat. Beyonce ) - 4 out of 4 - Probably will go down as one of the most underrated of Eminem's hits. The song encompasses all of the talents and personalities of one of this generations greatest artist. Unlike some of his prior works, the song is not set on a grand stage but a simple piano-driven beat with raw, honest lyrics and a beautiful hook from Beyonce. 2. Believe - 2 out of 4 - It's interesting to hear Eminem switch it up and rap over more trap-like beats. Honestly, he does it better than most of the yo...

Interview with The Forgotten 45's

1) Where are we talking from today? A. At rehearsal, in a windstorm without power in Olympia, Washington trying to type by candlelight. 2) How did you get involved in music? A. We are a team of 5 summoned by lord Zordon. Nolan (singer) Nolan's parents both had an appreciation for music and had him singing before he could properly form sentences. Introducing to him the music of the Beatles, Beach Boys, and Michael Jackson. Not much has changed, including his ability to properly form sentences or lack thereof. Cos (bassist) Cos's father was a strong influence in his musical career. Starting at age 7, he taught him how to play guitar, and encouraged him to play in the school jazz band from middle school through high school. At age 16, he got Cos a job playing bass at a local church. Cos met Michael during his freshman year at St. Martin's University, and that summer the band known as String Theory was formed, which has slowly transformed into The Forgotten 45...

13 Questions With J Curly Speegle

1. Where are we talking from today? A. I'm in Nashville, TN 2. Where did you get your artist name from? A. I was the lead guitarist for Rock & Roll Hall of fame Leon Russell from 2005 to 2007. When I joined the band I had long curly hair. Leon mentioned to me after a couple of gigs that he thought that "I ought to have a power name". Hence that day, I became J. "Curly" Speegle... He was big on that sort of thing. His real name was Claude Russell Bridges, so it kinda made sense. 3. Music wise, what are you working on right now? A. I'm actually on a hiatus at the moment. I started touring at 19 or 20 and stayed there for a lot of years, so I'm just enjoying a little downtime... 4. Who or what were the most significant influences on your musical life and career? A. Well, Leon Russell obviously. But there are a lot more that are pretty significant as well. There is a gentleman by the name of Owen...
