  • Always obsessed with pop culture, Calvin's usual activity as a kid was reading stacks of comic books and entertainment magazines from the public library.
  • For four years, he produced a weekly article series dedicated to underground DJs and musicians who reimagined popular tunes from TV shows, films, and anime.
  • His extreme dedication to Dragon Ball caused him to wear out his prized VHS copies of the original Z movies from watching them too much.
