Welcome to The Daily Rachel, a newsletter written by @rachelcomplains.

Here you’ll find:

Who am I:

  • A zoomer

  • An entertainment journalist whose written about tv, books, movies, and music for a range of publications, including Wall Street Journal, Vox, and Vulture

  • A Canadian living in the US

  • A Fred Armisen apologist

  • A person who’s obsessed with reading about network executives and their twisted minds

  • A former zine editor and one-time playwright

I make this because I really enjoy popular culture and connecting with other people over this shared enjoyment. I needed somewhere to divert the energy I used to spend at cafes, gushing with a friend about the 2005 rom-com Just Like Heaven or whatever, pre-pandemic, so I started writing this dispatch every day. Even though I’m pretty opinionated, I hope not to come off as believing my opinion to be the be all end all.

I hope you’ll join me and write back or send in a recommendation request if you feel so inclined.
