December 26, 2022 242. Black Adam, The Rock And DC Comic Book Storytelling Can Do This
"Black Adam" is not a great movie. But that's not its shame. Its shame is that it could've been a great movie, but it feared failure in a way that made it a trite mimic of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. I wish The Rock had been cast in something with better storytelling, a slower burn and better dialogue. This movie felt like it was put together to satisfy a Tik Tok algorithm.

December 16, 2022 241. Wakanda Forever, Shakespeare and Paul Newman
While waiting for the repair man to show up at the house, I recorded this episode about Paul Newman, Shakespeare and Wakanda Forever. I swear it makes sense.

April 20, 2022 On Formula 1 in 2022
RJ chopped it up with Racing Incident co-host Anna Tarkov about Formula One. They gushed about Lewis Hamilton, talked about the lack of racial and gender representation in the sport, the upcoming Imola and Miami Grands Prix and just what Drive to Survive has done for the sport.
Also, RJ reads the prologue of Adrian Newey's excellent autobiography called How to Build a Car where Newey drives the Williams racing FW-15 F1 car around the track at Paul Ricard.

April 01, 2022 239. Will Smith really slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars
Before winning the Oscar for Best Actor for his portrayal of Richard Williams in King Richard, Will Smith really slapped Chris Rock for making a joke about Jada Pinkett-Smith's bald hair cut. Also, I talk through some news and notes about Formula 1 racing including, the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton's social media post, Max Mosley's cause of death according to the coroner's office, Sebastian Vettel's return at the Australian Grand Prix and Formula 1's W Series adding two races. Caitlyn Jenner owns Jenner Racing and signed two-time defending W Series world champion Jamie Chadwick to her team.

March 30, 2022 238. 2022 F1 Australian GP preview: Toto Wolff & Mercedes looking real Guenther Steiner & Haas
In this episode, RJ discusses just what is going wrong for Toto Wolff's 2022 Mercedes Formula 1 team; what's going right for Guenther Steiner and the 2022 Haas F1 team; the fallout of the 2022 budget cap in the sport; how Ferrari, Red Bull and the Merc have won in the past and what the future holds for a sport built on Drive to Survive.

March 27, 2022 237. 2022 Saudi Arabia F1 GP recap: What's wrong with Mercedes? What's right with Ferrari?
2022 Saudi Arabia Formula 1 Grand Prix: Red Bull driver Max Verstappen won the 2022 Saudi Arabia Grand Prix after a great fight with Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc.
The Ferrari and Red Bulls have proven to be the class of the field with Sergio Perez taking the pole in qualifying and Carlos Sainz taking the podium next to Leclerc in both grands prix so far. But the question remains what is going on with Mercedes -- particularly Lewis Hamilton who began 15th on the grid on Sunday.
Along with McLaren drivers Lando Norris and Daniel Ricciardo, as well as Aston Martin drivers Lance Stroll and Nico Hulkenberg, the Mercedes power unit has teams and Formula 1 fans asking a lot of questions.

March 25, 2022 236. Zhou Guanyu, Lando Norris and the most popular driver in Formula 1 is this guy
Alfa Romero, Chinese and rookie F1 driver Zhou Guanyu could be the most popular driver in Formula by the end of 2022. I was shocked to find out Lando Norris is the second-most popular driver in the sport. I also pondered whether Sebastian Vettel is as pissed with Ferrari as Niki Lauda was following the 1976 season. Las Vegas is getting an F1 race in 2023, which means there will be three F1 events in the U.S. for the first since 1982. Also, just what the hell is going on at the Jeddah for the 2022 Saudi Arabia Grand Prix practice sessions?!

March 23, 2022 235. 2022 F1 Saudi Arabia GP preview: Will Red Bull and Max Verstappen bounce back?
The 2022 Bahrain Grand Prix was the most-watched Formula One event on ESPN since 1995. RJ talks about what that means and whether it signals a new wave of interest in F1 thanks in large part to the Netflix series Drive to Survive.
What's Ferrari gonna follow-up with?
--The Scuderia ended its 910-day, 45-race winless streak with an outstanding display of blue blood Mei Mei Turning Red power taking one-two on the podium and opening up a 44-point lead on the Red Bull and 17-point lead on Mercedes. Haven't won a title since 2008. 2020 was a 40-year low (sixth) for the Maranello mean machine team.
Can Red Bull get their wings?
--RB-powered cars were the four fastest in Bahrain. But only one of those cars finished.
--Verstappen (54) and Checo (57) ran at the front all day
--Is it really the fuel pump?
Can the Haas F1 team keep this up?
--Third in the Constructor's
--Title sponsor Urkali wanted its money back
--Bahrain GP was best finish since 2018 when the team had its best season ever
--Was the only team to finish 2021 without scoring a point
--Magnussen's best finish was matched by Mick Schumacher's best of 11th

March 21, 2022 234. 2022 F1 Bahrain GP: Max Verstappen & Red Bull was fast. Lewis Hamilton & Mercedes in trouble?
In this episode, RJ talks Formula One racing for the first time on The RJ Young Show Podcast. Starting the season with the first race of the year at Bahrain, Charles Leclerc, Carlos Sainz and Ferrari had a banner weekend with a 1-2 finish and the Scuderia's first F1 win in years. Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes were able to steal points. George Russell narrowly held off Alfa Romeo's Valterri Bottas.
Red Bull had the fastest car on track but it wasn't enough. American Drive to Survive fans got to rejoice with Haas Racing, Guenther Steiner and Kevin Magnussen.

November 24, 2021 The Truth About Patrizia Reggiani, Maurizio Gucci And The Sordid "House Of Gucci"
I read Sara Gay Forden's book, "House of Gucci," so you don't have to. It's the story of how Aldo, Rodolfo and Maurizio Gucci built Guccio Gucci's business into an internationally-respected brand and produced iconic fashion and fashion designers like Tom Ford and how Patrizia Reggiani Martinelli Gucci became the symbol of its undoing. House of Gucci has been adapted into a movie directed by Ridley Scott and starring Adam Driver, Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, Salma Hayek and Lady Gaga.
