The Friday Link for 6/21/24

Hi all!  I hope you've all had a good week.

The three for this week are all revisiting some of the regulars. 

First up is Jon Stewart and The Daily Show.  His take on why corporate America is starting to look ridiculous with their botched attempts at appealing to the LGBTQ community at pride, how their stupid mistakes are due to their real master (profits), and how it might be time for them to stop. 

As a Veteran, I can relate.  A lot of companies try to plaster veterans all over their logos to make THEMSELVES look patriotic.  Sure they might offer a minor benefit to those who served, but the real benefit is in their marketing.

Next up is the Honest Trailers for Godzilla Minus One.  Not only was this a great Godzilla flick, but it actually had a pretty good human story, focusing on Japan trying to gain back its pride after losing WWII. By the way, this movie won the Oscar for special effects and it did deserve it.  See it.

Finally tonight, the latest from Tasting History with Max Miller.  I love good pork-and-beans, and we forget it was not too long ago that it was a staple of a lot of people's diets.  What I love about this recipe is how freaking easy it is.  It takes time, but the results look fantastic! 

Have a great weekend everyone.

Please stay healthy and safe!
