This week we discuss a sports special Mel might actually watch and relive 8 track glory.
Kelly’s Recommendation:
Documentary: 30 for 30: The 16th Man
* An ESPN Special about Nelson Mandela, the “Springbok” Rugby team, and South Africa’s transition to integrate the nation after Apartheid.
* Narrated by Morgan Freeman. this documentary features interviews with players and various political activists of the time.
* Minimal actual rugby in the special. Which is good, since Kelly has no clue about how the game is played.
* This will be the first of 30 sports specials Mel is going to watch!!!
Mel’s Recommendation:
Music Service: 8Tracks.com
* This is a streaming music service that features user created playlists of at least 8 tracks.
* The neat thing here is that you can upload your own (legally acquired) music if it’s not already in their database.
* It’s also available for iOS and Android.
* There are tons of “Fandom” type playlists about particular characters you know and love. I listened to quite a few that were odes to Black Widow.
* We reminisce about the actual real 8 Tracks.
* I uploaded a funny little playlist about Shapeshifter Romance novels.
