That is awesome, but it’s also perfect if you have a small living space, kitchenette, or need to conserve counter space!

The sleek surfaces are easy to wipe down and clean up after use, and several components are dishwasher-safe, including the pot, drip pan, cooking tray, and basket inside. The smart programs have automated modes, so you can leave it running and cooking, and it’s safe thanks to a bevy of features. Those safety options protect against overheating, too much pressure buildup, and while using it as an air fryer, and there’s a safety lock — to prevent people from accidentally removing the lid while it’s hot.

8 movies to watch on Veterans Day

Head, Person, Face

It is Veterans Day, and that means you had time off work and you got everything done. Does that mean you are sitting in front of the TV trying to figure out what to watch? Well, you know I am a huge movie buff, so I have the cure for your Veterans Day boredom. Military movies span the genres. There is horror, historical, comedies, dramas, action, and even some romantic comedies. The list is long and deep of some of the greatest performances you will see. So here are 8 military movies you can watch to celebrate the veteran in your life.

And speaking of them, a little reminder: Many of them have seen things you can’t imagine. They carry an invisible load you can’t fathom. Reach out to them. Invite them over to join in the celebration. Some won’t want to celebrate. But a beer and a movie is just a regular Wednesday.

Jack Bauer changed the landscape of television 25 years ago this month: We look back on ’24’

It is a rainy weekend here in New York City. That means it is the perfect time to sit back, turn on the TV, and get lost in a great show. While there are hundreds of newer series you could jump into on Netflix, Prime, Paramount, Hulu, Max, Apple TV, etc., I think it is more appropriate to look at the show that paved the way for all of them: 24. And let’s not forget the main character, who created the on-screen template for characters like Jack Reacher, Jack Ryan, and James Reece, Jack Bauer.

Is it a little overdramatic to say that 24 and Jack Bauer paved the way, or built the template, for the series we love today? Maybe. Is it entirely appropriate to attribute that overdramatic thought to a show that is by and large overdramatic? Absolutely. But here is the truth that any 24 fan will tell you: there are a handful of things commonplace today in the television landscape that weren’t that way until this series did them. And there was never a television character like Jack Bauer, until Jack Bauer made everyone want more characters like Jack Bauer. Do you see what I am saying? No? Ok, fine, here are four ways the series and its lead changed TV forever.

Guys need to read more. Every time I start doomscrolling on TikTok or Instagram, the BookTok world is almost exclusively curated for women. That is why we need to start pushing our love for the bang-bang shoot-’em-ups. The debonair spy. The man on his own, cut off from all help, with only his skills and his wits to help him overcome the obstacles between him and his mission. As men, we love these escapes from the mundane lives and diving into the hero fantasy we all have. When women talk about the mental load they carry every day, men are usually creating our own mental load with safety and security: “What would I do if someone attacked from here? Or there?” Really, what we’re asking is, “What would Jason Bourne do?”

I tend to live in this place in my head when I need to escape from the world, but it is more fun to read about it. As the weather begins to turn and our evenings and weekends are colder and darker, we need something to occupy our time to get us from now until we can escape to the great outdoors in the spring. Here are some action and adventure book recommendations to get your heart going and quench that hero fantasy without doing anything dangerous.
