  • Summary

  • Welcome to Episode 260 of Spun Today, I’m your host Tony. In today’s episode, we dive into a mix of humor, culture, and personal challenge. We’ll kick things off with comedian Brian Simpson’s controversial yet comical takes from his Netflix special "Live from the Mothership", where no topic is off-limits, from C0VID to the quirks of political affiliations. Shifting gears, we delve into the world of hip-hop with a look at the brewing tensions between icons Kendrick Lamar and Drake, and how their feud plays out in the public eye. Later in the show, we take a cinematic turn with a review of the 2024 remake of the movie "Roadhouse", starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Conor McGregor, where action-packed scenes and sharp dialogues keep us on the edge of our seats. Lastly, I’ll share my personal journey participating in the five-borough bike tour in New York City, highlighting the physical and mental ups and downs of cycling through the Big Apple. Whether it's cracking up at a comedy special, crunching the latest in music feuds, rooting for your favorite actor in a fist-flying film, or riding alongside me through New York’s boroughs, this episode has something for everyone.
