Kevin Hart got roasted. Apparently it was pretty cutthroat. That's not our thing, but roasts have been around for long enough that clearly they have an audience.

Listen to the show to find out how to get 'em.

There's a hot new sport sweeping the nation, and once again it's named after a food. It's banana ball, and it's basically baseball but weird. Kind of like how pickleball is tennis but weird. You know what's not weird? Sequels to ancient franchises. Devil Wears Prada 2 and Mortal Kombat 2 are making waves at the box office. There's never been a better time to be over the age of 30.

It's the human condition, I guess.
