Watch of the Week: Hustle (2022)
Key Players:
Adam Sandler
Juancho Hernangomez
Anthony Edwards
In honor of NBA playoffs, featuring one of the most unique sports movies out there, in that it takes place in the context of the real NBA, with real NBA players playing themselves. The whole thing plays out like a giant NBA 2K cut scene and will you leave you like the below image as your favorite random NBA players litter the runtime with cameo after cameo. Anthony Edwards also absolutely crushes it as the film’s villain.
Me recognizing Hollywood film icon Tobias Harris
Song of the Week: In the Still of the Night by The 5 Satins (1956)

Monday Motivation: Nothing changes if nothing changes
Fan Question of the Week: If you had to have to pick one restaurant to be located in your house, what would it be?
Asked by: The Yellow King
Truthfully its not even close. Pura Vida features a diverse menu that covers breakfast through dinner, and is my favorite genre of food: healthy food that tastes like it should be unhealthy but isn’t.
I used to order Pura Vida on Uber Eats, 2 meals at a time, and bang out lunch and dinner in one swoop, oftentimes the same exact meal. They have great portions, fast service, and most importantly, would get me shredded over time. This is a no brainer.
Hoss or Toss: Facetime screenshots of engagements on Instagram
DISCLAIMER: I have no idea who these ppl are, I just googled “facetime engagements”. Wishing this bride-to-be nothing but the best (plz don’t sue me)
Hoss: This is people’s special moment; it is absolute “Grinch who stole Christmas” behavior to judge how they choose to share the news / react to it. Also helps you stay in the know of people’s lives.
Toss: Alright, how many times can we see the same exact photo? It’s become so commonplace that you have to wonder if they even want to speak to the person they’re FT’ing after the question is popped or if they just want the screenshot to be posted on Instagram…
What do you think?
