6.181/365: the Bear and R.E.M.

This is the day to strongly recommend two things to you, dear reader. You all know I love R.E.M. more than any band and I believe The Bear is the best show on tv (Hulu) right now. The second season just came out and I’m almost finished with it. Just like the first season, the songs they’ve used are phenomenal. Imagine when it featured a song in my top five R.E.M. songs. I was excited to hear “Strange Currencies.” It’s a beautiful song that is full of love and yearning and ache. Just like The Bear. Together, the made a new video, so I’m giving you a bit of The Bear and a few minutes of “Strange Currencies” to enjoy. Go watch The Bear. The episode “Fishes” is worth the price of your subscription this month. I promise.
