We’re still in the midst of this quarantine, but entertainment can still be found as long as your phone is charged. From sports documentaries to nostalgic Instagram Live battles, the pandemic has us connecting through social media while social distancing, since we’re all in this together.

No live sports, but ESPN pulled out the big guns with the Bulls documentary, The Last Dance. And Teddy Riley faced off against Babyface in the IG Live battle of a lifetime, the second time around. What a time to be alive.

We’re two months into 2020 and a lot has happened in the world of sports. The Chiefs are Super Bowl champs, the Astros were deemed cheaters, and somehow the immortal Kobe Bryant is no longer with us. Despite him physically being gone, his spirit was alive and well for All-Star Weekend. On this episode of Beards and Baddies, we discuss the eventful and reflective weekend. From the high-flying dunk contest to the newly formatted and surprisingly competitive All-Star Game, this weekend was full of amazing moments: both joyous and somber. With everything that comes with this weekend, would you go solo, or let your significant other do the same? Remember this is during Valentine’s Day weekend, so choose your answer carefully.
