Oscar
The title of this episode makes absolutely no sense, right? Let us explain. Today the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences reveals its Oscar nominees and our Manny the Movie Guy is not happy. In fact he says his heart is hurting. For “Eats” we speak with award-winning cook book author, Mimi Sheraton about the 1,000 Foods you need to eat before you die. And for “Tubes” we speak to our tech guy, Jeremy Anticouni about a test track Elon Musk (Space X, Tesla, Solar City) is building for his Hyperloop idea. If you don’t know, the Hyperloop, in theory, could shuttle you, in a tube, from Los Angeles to San Francisco in 30 minutes…and it’s said to be totally safe. Plus stories from the friends: virtual kidnapping, free food for hotties, the flu shot is practically worthless, Mayweather vs Pacquiao is happening and you won’t believe how much money they’ll make, Chris Martin has a beef with the El Capitan climbers, Get a bachelor’s degree in sustainable craft brewery, there’s a black “Bachelor” coming to TV, the Yelp shakedown, and kids at a school in Alabama are ready to respond to a possible armed attacker with something off the grocery store shelves.
