  • A Opinionated Me Episode 2 - Russi Taylor's Passing, Katy Perry Getting Sued and Gilroy Garlic Festival Shooting

    i hope you enjoyed this episode and that we didn't come off as insensitive towards the grim topics that we covered. remember, if you ever feel like you are depressed, confused about your emotions and contemplating something drastic like suicide, please talk to someone like a counselor, therapist, look for free therapy options in your area like group talks, talk to a friend, seek a psychologist or call Suicide Prevention Lifeline. you matter and your life can account for wonderful things in this world, even if you feel like it doesn't.

  • Episode 2 - LeBron James, James Gunn Might Be Back with Support of Marvel, Blindspotting Thoughts and Logan Paul Wanting to Join the UFC
    Me and Kev talked about James Gunn probably coming back for GoTG Vol. 3, LeBron getting crap on Instagram for showing appreciation of black women, Logan Paul wanting to be in the UFC and me talking briefly of my love for the movie Blindspotting. Warning - the audio may be patchy and on behalf of us, the hosts, we are sorry. It was due to technical difficulties on both sides and we promise for future podcasts that we will have quality as well as better commentary on further news reports. Thank you for your time and have an amazing day until next weekend.
