This year’s weekly ENTHUSIASM series, here at HILOBROW, is: #SQUADGOALS. We’ve asked 52 of HILOBROW’s friends and contributors to wax enthusiastic about their favorite groups, circles, ensembles, teams, groups, crews, posses, and coteries.

#SQUADGOALS series installments in 3Q2017 will include the following.

Devin McKinney on 1975 RED SOX | Steph Burt on DAMAGE CONTROL | Elina Shatkin on THE HOLOGRAMS | Chris Spurgeon on THE ALKALI METALS | Carl Wilson on NEW YORK SCHOOL POETS | Barbara Bogaev on THE MOD SQUAD | Franklin Bruno on THE AACM | Judith Zissman on THE FUTURIANS | Karinne Keithley Syers on BLACK LIPS PERFORMANCE CULT | Jacob Mikanowski on THE RATBASTARDS | Lynn Peril on THE DALY SISTERS | Katie Hennessey on BEAT POETS | Peter Doyle on CORNEL WILDE BOYS.

Josh Glenn is editor of the #SQUADGOALS series. He is very grateful to all of the series’ contributors.

Adam McGovern’s semi-memoiristic, semi-culture-critical, always insightful column, THIS:, will continue to appear weekly. During 3Q2017, you can expect installments dedicated to theater, cabaret, music, comics, and more.

We’ll publish one or two final installments in Brian Berger’s almost-weekly INTO THE GROVE series, which celebrates perhaps America’s most exciting and controversial publisher: Barney Rosset’s Grove Press!

MONTHLY SERIES

Each month, Lynn Peril will publish a new installment in the series PLANET OF PERIL, which is devoted to her favorite obscure historical fads and figures.

Each month, Tom Nealon will publish a new installment in the series STUFFED, which is devoted to the secret history of cookery and cookbooks.

Each month, James Parker will continue to bastardize THE KALEVALA, a Finnish sequence of folkloric songs, runes, and charms. (James took several months off, in early 2017 — but the project is now back on track!)

We’ll publish three new installments — 1952, 1957, and 1962 — in Josh Glenn’s almost-monthly BEST ADVENTURES series, which chronicles his ongoing attempt to identify the 10 best adventures from each year of the 20th century. Each installment will first be published as 10 individual posts.

*

CURATED SERIES

Finally, we plan to publish a few curated series during 3Q2017. We’re discussing ideas with our friends and regular contributors — including graphic cover designer Jacob Covey and journalist Alexandra Molotkow, for example — now.

Stay tuned!
