On January 28th, The Knockturnal got the chance to attend “Debbie Durkin’s EcoLuxe “Indie Film + Music Experience”.

This event was in honor of 2022’s Sundance/GRAMMY/Golden Globe/SAG Award nominees and was held at The Beverly Hilton Hotel’s “Wilshire Garden” in Beverly Hills, CA. The walk thru event featured tons of amazing booths that were there to share their one of a kind products with us. Upon entering we were greeted by staff and got to take a walk around and meet all the amazing workers of the booths.

Stop one was BeSpoken Spirits, a modern spirits house, who was offering tastings of their multi-award-winning Rye Whiskey and Bourbon. Here we got to learn all about the process for creating a modern spirit and even got the chance to sample some of their whiskey. After talking with the staff about their products they suggested I sample their American Light Whiskey. This whiskey is distilled at a higher proof making it lighter in color and harshness. This results in a much smoother finish compared to normal whiskeys. Their products were nothing short of amazing, coming from someone that does not usually enjoy whiskey.

Next we headed over to check out Drip Hydration Utah. There we got to talk to some of the on-site nurses who were supplying B12 and Immunity Shots, in addition to rapid COVID testing upon entry. They showed us their menu featuring IV Treatments for hangovers, energy boosts, dehydration, weight loss, and much more.

After we had to stop and chat with one of our favorite nonprofits, Wagmor Pets. Wagmor Pets is a non-profit dog rescue based in Studio City. They work in rescuing dogs and helping them find new forever homes best suited to the dog and owners needs. They were on site with some of their newest rescued puppies that were available for adoption. (To view these pups and see which other ones are available for adoption head over to  www.wagmorpets.org for more info, or to donate).

This local Utah-based clothing brand, is premiering their Earth-first streetwear brand, a powerful catalyst for ending wildlife extinction. Their mission focuses on helping save animals who are close to extinction by creating amazing streetwear pieces blending on-trend fashion with conservation, allowing the customer to become Voices of the Vanishing wildlife and wild places.

It’s official: Jay-Z will headline the 2027 Super Bowl Halftime Show, and fans are already “Crazy in Love” with the idea that he might not be doing it alone… 

While Roc Nation’s announcement didn’t confirm any guest performers, it certainly didn’t rule them out, leaving the door open for a potential appearance from his wife, Queen Bey herself, who previously headlined the halftime show in 2013. 

Super Bowl LXI is February 14th at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California.

It’s spooky season, and Naomi Ackie is taking over It’s spooky season, and Naomi Ackie is taking over The Knockturnal’s latest cover! 🪓 

Inspired by the iconic psychological horror of American Psycho, our first of three covers puts Naomi in a world where fashion meets fear.

As she steps into the DC Universe in Clayface, Ackie reflects on her unconventional career journey and the lessons that have kept her grounded. As she puts it, “I've learnt since then to hold things lightly.”

When Billy Porter makes an entrance, the look is never an afterthought, so it is only fitting that, as he steps into the world of The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, he takes on the role of a Capitol stylist.

The Knockturnal sat down with Porter who opened up about bringing a little bite to the world of Panem, one snakeskin ensemble at a time.

The play brings together Greta (Golden Globe nominee Marilu Henner), a longtime ACLU donor on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, and Tanner (Emmy nominee Shannon Purser), the young representative sent to secure a substantial contribution. While initially united by progressive values, their conversation quickly exposes a widening generational and ideological rift.

Henner and Purser deliver performances that keep an ideological debate grounded in recognizable human emotion.
