Midnight in Chernobyl: The Untold Story of the World's Greatest Nuclear Disaster
By: Adam Higginbotham

This non-fiction book brought to life one of the major events of my young life: the 1986 radioactive explosion and near meltdown of an RBMK reactor in Chernobyl, Ukraine. Answering the questions of what exactly happened and why, it helped me understand the human, environmental, and political impact of what could be best described as "the unthinkable." If you're in a particularly disastrous mood, consider pairing the book with a viewing of the 5-part, fictionalized HBO series, Chernobyl.

Gamechanger

The best game show running right now changes the game every episode, and it is one of the funniest shows you will ever watch. One of Dropout TV’s flagship programs, this show has become a staple in my house, and there are few things better than crowding around the TV and watching people be forced to play all sorts of insane games while they crack jokes.

I have been playing Dungeons & Dragons for a long time now so I was very skeptical of this film going in. But to my surprise this was a great time. It not only proves itself to be a good movie but also represents the game and fanbase incredibly well. I can't wait to sit back and watch this again while also planning what to do for my party of heroes in our next sessions.
