I have maintained for a long time that every movie with “and the” in the title would also be an amazing band name (like Percy Jackson and the Olympians or Ant Man and the Wasp)….But now there’s ONE exception.

Great inside look on how the Simpsons NFL game came together.
Trying something new on my YouTube channel—we put together a video showing what it was like to call Monday Night Football from inside Springfield. Talked about the VR technology, my Simpsons prep, and what it was like behind the scenes…check it out! 👇

"Who do you like in this week's games, Mina?"

"Well, I like the 49ers because they're pure of heart, Seattle because they got something to prove, and the Raiders because they always cheat."

“We don’t have to watch Simpsons Football, do we daddy?”
“You betcha. Simpsons Football will keep you away from temptations like rock music and girls.”
“Yay!!!”

I bet this video is even funnier if you watch it without knowing what company it is advertising until the end when you see the flag flapping.

How amazing must that videographer feel to have captured this shot.

My sister found this Star Trek Enterprise D Christmas ornament in my mom’s things. The light-up warp nacelles don’t work anymore, but thankfully the Hallmark box it came in says that it is under warranty until December 1995, so I should be good. #StarTrek

"[T]here’s no endgame that offsets the self-sabotage of these filings. “No amount of money in the world is worth the reputational harm that Drake is causing to himself by filing these suits,'”
Experts Weigh In on Drake's Legal Filings Against UMG: 'This Gets Nowhere Near Trial'
According to one entertainment industry lawyer, there’s not much “meat on the bone” with Drake’s recent filings against UMG.

Whenever I see a "make sure you have something for little kids like chicken nuggets at your Thanksgiving dinner" post on social media, all I can think is how much my non-little kid self would absolutely destroy a platter of nuggets before I even noticed there was a turkey on the Thanksgiving table.

If these people don’t show up at my house in brown jumpsuits and proton packs with a plunger connected to it, I would be so disappointed.

For a couple years, @sarahjeong.bsky.social has asked “what is the bad art friend of tech?” Well, @miasato.bsky.social found the answer: a rivalry/lawsuit between two influencers that tests the legal protections of being extremely basic.

I can't be the only one who didn't even know that there was a Scott Pilgrim anime on Netflix until Netflix announced that it was canceling it. This seems to happen a lot with their shows.
#ScottPilgrim anime is officially done

Netflix did not pick it up for S2

Usually on Break the Business we discuss the important issues of the day facing indie creators, but sometimes we do the equally important undertaking of playing "Is it the name of a hipster bar or a yacht rock song?" with our guest Nicholas Niespodziani of Yacht Rock Revue.
