The Five and Dime

About the Substack

A sporadic establishment situated in the guts of Midwestland. Mainly stocking essays, fanaticisms, and other inquiries into music, film, and whatever culture means.

It's cheap, and always aims to please.

About Avery Gregurich

Lost in Midwestland. Terrible lawn mower.
