As we near the halfway point of the NBA Playoffs, it’s a good time to take inventory of what’s working, and what’s driving viewers to dive for the mute button any time they hear Lizzo’s “Now here go!” at the top of that commercial for cruise ships. While I could do an entire post about […]
It’s a widely known fact that Kyrie Irving is delusional. He’s a man of the people while walking among them unvaccinated.
