Remember when Wednesdays meant there was a fresh alt-weekly newspaper in the newspaper box on the corner?
In it you found faces you recognized — of your friends and maybe even yourself. Mirror Indy’s new arts and culture newsletter is an ode to that magic, which is why it will hit your mailbox every Wednesday at noon. You can read or listen to it!

PLAY LIST
A cure to your doomscrolling
What’s up PlayListers,
Today I’m writing the coolest arts and culture newsletter in all the land in the absence of my amazing editor Jennifer Delgadillo.
Am I the only person who has had to send way too many birthday wishes so far this month? I love my people but my fingers are a little sore from typing out those two magic words. Fun fact: September has the most common birthdays.
I’ve got some good stuff for you to check out.
Read about the important role intimacy directors play in making theater sets safe for actors in Indy. See how westsiders showed their neighborhood pride at the 100th annual Riverside parade.
Lastly, here’s a little Mesgana lore: I didn’t have a cell phone in middle school so I spent my free time (and bedtime) reading YA fiction. “Dork Diaries,” “A Series Unfortunate Events,” the “Hunger Games” series. I’m trying to get back to my old self instead of doomscrolling.
If you share the same desire, learn how you could grab some $1 books at this new bookstore in Lawrence.
