• Jokes keep flowing through Rivers (valleyrecord.com) — Local comedy fans may recognize Mount Si High grad Andrew Rivers, who recently performed at a large tribute show for his late father at Snoqualmie Casino and Hotel. The story traces his path from a best man’s speech to touring comic, exploring how he crafts jokes, handles hecklers, and balances constant travel with personal life while keeping politics mostly out of his act.

• A quiet, brooding masterpiece (sandpointreader.com) — A new film adaptation of Denis Johnson’s Train Dreams was largely shot in Washington, including around Snoqualmie, even though its story is set in North Idaho and western Montana. The movie follows logger Robert Grainier through decades of isolation, loss, and change in the early 20th-century American West, offering a stark, reflective look at the workers and landscapes that shaped the region.
