It still isn’t a fad, it is still something you should think about. Black Lives Matter.
The world is changing as we know right now and in these times there is not a real lot of pop culture talk about and understandably so. We agree with everyone who decided to stop press releases and events so that real news was allowed to spread.
Despite the fact there is no real news Craig & Tom got together to talk when at could arguably be called news but isn’t really. This includes “One Angry Gamer’s Traitors of America list“, Keanu Reeves hyping up The Matrix 4, BBFC, Randy Pitchford Financial Magician, Black Lives Still Matter and more!
