Summary: A new study overturns the traditional view that the brain solely directs male sexual behavior while the spinal cord executes ejaculation. Researchers identified Galanin-expressing spinal neurons that both drive ejaculation and regulate arousal, integrating sensory input, brain feedback, and internal states. In mice, these neurons influenced pacing, coordination, and even the refractory period, suggesting a more active role for …

This post contains spoilers for Spinal Tap II: The End Continues. Fool David St. Hubbins once, shame on Spinal Tap director Marty DiBergi. Fool him twice…well, that’s still probably on DiBergi. After all, St. Hubbins is famously easy to fool. However, the lead singer of Spinal Tap (played by Michael McKean) knows he once again made a mistake by trusting …

Does the release of Spinal Tap II: The End Continues mark the actual end of England’s loudest band? Maybe, says Michael McKean, who plays David St. Hubbins: “If you only halfway exist, then vanishing altogether is not a big chore.” McKean, whose many other roles include Charles McGill on Better Call Saul and a recent Broadway stint in a Glengarry …

It’s been more than 40 years since Rob Reiner’s mockumentary classic This Is Spinal Tap introduced pop culture to its most enduring fictional rockers, the eminently quotable long-haired bozos of the English metal band Spinal Tap (or Spın̈al Tap, if we’re being technical). The on-stage mishaps and backstage pretensions of Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest), David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean), Derek …

NEW YORK — They used to go to 11. Now it’s far closer to zero. It brings me no pleasure to report that “Spinal Tap II: The End Continues,” the long-anticipated big screen return for “one of England’s loudest bands,” is a shocking disappointment. The movie gets a few pity chuckles here and there, but considering what a lodestar 1984’s …

“It’s such a fine line between stupid and, uh … ” opines David St. Hubbins (Michael McKean) in Rob Reiner’s epochal 1984 mockumentary This Is Spinal Tap. In a rare instance of being less slow-witted than his bandmate, Nigel Tufnel (Christopher Guest) steps in to supply the missing adjective: “clever.” Forty-one years later, the fictional hard-rock supergroup is back to toeing that …
