Ep.151 - Robert Sarver, The Eternals & Google Maps
On Ep.151 of WG: Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver, one more thought on "The Harder They Fall", "The Eternals" and using real-life tragedy, and Google Maps is a low-key time machine.
In a week where:
- MP Owen Patterson resigns as Tories fling democracy under the bus.
- Eight people die at Travis Scott's Astro World concert.
- The 'maxi trial' of the 'Ndrangheta in Italy continues as 70 mobsters are convicted.
- UB40 founding member Terrence "Astro" Wilson dies aged 64.
- Over 300 climate demonstrations go down across the world as COP26 continues.
In Sports: (8:59) A report on Phoenix Suns owner Robert Sarver has dropped and whilst there's no "smoking gun", boy is there a fuck-ton of smoke.
In the 1st of two Film/TV segments: (23:10) I watched "The Harder They Fall" once again, this time on Netflix. And whilst I can confidently say I love the film, I can't ever recommend the film without flagging up one major error in the casting department.
In the 2nd Film/TV segment: (39:19) I also saw "The Eternals" in the past week. Mixed reviews aside, it's worth having a conversation on films that use real-life tragedies as pathos.
Lastly, in Life: (52:31) If you haven't been on Google Maps recently, you may not be aware of a time machine feature they have which, depending on where you are, can really show the changes in life in the 21st Century.
