What to do this weekend

What to do this weekend

Eat like a real cowboy. In honour of the Calgary Stampede, giddy up and make some authentic Old West meals. While many of them aren’t super appetizing (like apple water and boiled cracker pudding), some jerky gravy with a slice of railroad cake sounds mighty fine!

Read The Librarianist, the newest novel from acclaimed Canadian novelist Patrick deWitt. Known for his off-beat, darkly comic tales like The Sisters Brothers, his latest is a riveting character study focused on a retired librarian who must reckon with his painful past.

Watch Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One. Tom Cruise’s latest adventure as Ethan Hunt/flirtation with death is now in theatres. The stunts look—and this is a technical term—friggin’ nuts. Need to catch up? Watch the franchise’s past films for free on PlutoTV.

Listen to Beautiful and Brutal Yard, the new album from UK rap superstar J Hus. The pioneer of the Afroswing sound—a potent mix of bubbly, smooth African dance music and street-hardened grime raps—delivers another sterling collection to soundtrack the summer.
