The more I think about it, the more ridiculous the character of Freddy is. He's a killer with a heart of gold. He wants to help Naz because he senses his innocence, so he uses him as a drug mile and as an accomplice to a murder. He's a heroin addict who is also pretty much running everything inside his little Rikers…

I'm OK with that in that Naz felt like he owes his life to Freddy and would have gotten killed in there without him. It also shows how jail can turn otherwise clean people into criminals.

I’m OK with him championing free speech and open dissent while in China.

I remember my friend’s brother ran a league where he had to connect via Prodigy and he had to upload rosters on Saturday and download the results every Tuesday. My friend and I shared a team with Webster Slaughter and Warren Moon, but I have no clue who else.

At some point, they’re going to make robots that are nearly indistinguishable from humans. When they do, what is the threshold at which sex with one becomes cheating on your spouse?

The whole thing is great, but The Grind Date should get classic status based on "Rock Co.Kane Flow" alone.

Good for him. I'm really enjoying the Keepin' it 1600 podcast.

Wow, I can’t believe you messed up Pokemon and Digimon. That’s basic stuff.

They couldn't bring back The Puzzler?

I’m holding out to see if he gets a lollipop when done.

I stand by this: Lincoln will be the most known Spielberg movie in 100 years.

Do you think Box knows he messed up? Also, didn't he mention in an earlier episode how he has no desire to spend retirement playing golf? This was about his disconnect from his workers, no?

I'm not a law-talking guy, but I feel like the Adderall thing could be spun in Naz's favor. I would go on about how he's talking to do better in school, to turn A's into A+'s. That sort of thing.

Not the point at all.

Besides diving and swimming, are there other sports that can be synchronized? What about synchronized half pipe for the winter games?

If Barbaro died this year, would he have been as big as Harambe?

The Japanese women’s wrestling coach is my secret Rio MVP. I bet that guy is a blast.

North Korea is literally a prison that you are born into. It’s not a real country. The citizens of North Korea are, for lack of a better word, victims. Anything that helps to legitimize the government aides the unjust situation.

I’m fully on the Pat Kiernan for Jeopardy bandwagon. Bonus points: He’s also Canadian.

What's so ridiculous about a teenager who gets bit by a radioactive spider who then acquires spider-like powers and then decides to use those powers to fight crime? Totally reasonable.
