About


Hi, I’m Chris. Welcome to Big Waste of Time — a blog that, statistically speaking, you probably found by accident. Don’t worry, that’s on brand.

Nobody asked for this blog. I made it anyway. What started as a place to dump my thoughts has turned into a running commentary on the things I can’t stop paying attention to: the Chicago Cubs (for better or, historically, worse), golf, movies I loved, movies I walked out on, tech news, and whatever else happened this week that deserved an opinion nobody requested.

What you’ll find here

Dailies — the weekly roundups. Sports, news, movies, and music all crammed into one post, because life doesn’t sort itself into neat categories and neither do I.

Movies — reviews and takes, from box-office disasters to the low-budget gems that deserve your attention.

Golf — tournament recaps and the occasional report from my own rounds, which are consistently better than average. By mistake.

Tech — what’s new, what’s overhyped, and what’s actually worth caring about.

Life — the personal stuff. Family, reflections, and the occasional post that gets more honest than the rest.

The podcast

If reading isn’t enough nonsense for you, I also talk. You can listen to The Insanely Great Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever your podcasts are found.

Stick around

If any of that sounds like your kind of nonsense, subscribe and new posts will show up in your inbox — same nonsense, different day. You can also find me on Instagram and X.

Thanks for wasting your time here. It means a lot.
