There has always been a small hope that we would get a second season of Mare of Easttownat some point, though it always seemed like it would be quite a while. The HBO drama only ran for one season (what some would call a “limited series,” but the term is loose these days) and managed to receive dozens of award nominations and the creator even threw out some good ideas for more storylines. So all we need is Kate Winslet to charge up her vape and head back to PA for more, and it seems like she’s finally warming up to the idea.
In a new interview with Net-A-Porter, Winslet fondly looks back on her time as Mare. “F*cking Mare” she muttered when asked about a possible return. It started on a great note!
Winslet then revealed that she isn’t opposed to more Mare. “You never know. I loved playing her,” she explained, adding that it was not an easy role for her.”[But] it was really hard… [and] it took so long to get her out of my bloody system.”
While she might be considering it, the actress has been open about how hard the character was for her. In 2022, she told Indiewire “I can’t just go, ‘Oh yes, let’s just do it again.‘ It’s a colossal, colossal commitment and did really take a huge amount out of me. And I know it would do that again, it would have to, if I was going to give people what they want and ultimately deserve, to see out of Mare Sheehan. You never know.”
However, last year, Winslet told TVLine that she “would absolutely love to play Mare again” so it seems like enough time has passed. “I miss her. I really do,” she added. This is how people normally feel when they go too long without stepping foot in a Wawa, so it makes sense. It’s only a matter of time before she starts stock-piling spray cheese.
Guy Ritchie digs “gentlemen” and non-gentlemen alike. He will soon bring the world an action-packed, Nazi-killing movie, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, starring Henry Cavill’s tongue and Alan Ritchson’s guns. In 2019, he also gave us Matthew McConaughey as a marijuana kingpin (Michael “Mickey” Pearson) in a little film called The Gentlemen (also starring Charlie Hunnam and Hugh Grant), and Madonna’s ex-husband also has a Netflix series called The Gentlemen coming to the streaming waves in March.
Are these two projects that are both called The Gentlemen related? Yes, they are in the same world, but this series will revolve around a different story. Don’t worry, there is still a weed empire, which is essentially the same weed empire as the movie, involved here. Theo James will portray Eddie Horniman, whose aristocratic father bequeathed him an estate that helps to host Mickey Pearson’s, uh, fruits. From the Netflix description of the upcoming series:
We meet Eddie Horniman as he inherits his father’s sizable estate… only to discover it’s part of a weed empire. Moreover, a host of unsavory elements of Britain’s criminal underworld want a piece of the operation. Determined to extricate his family from their clutches, Eddie tries to play the gangsters at their own game. However, as he gets sucked into the world of criminality, he begins to find a taste for it.
Netflix’s The Gentlemen co-stars Ray Winstone, Kaya Scodelario, Vinnie Jones, Joely Richardson, Giancarlo Esposito, Chanel Cresswell, Michael Vu, Daniel Ings, Max Beesley, Dar Salim, Pearce Quigley, Ruby Sear, and Peter Serafinowicz. Netflix revealed some character posters, too.

It’s been a pretty fantastic run lately for the pop culture power couple that is Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. Last weekend (not this past weekend, the one before), Swift won some Grammys, including Album Of The Year, and announced a new album. Then, yesterday (February 11), Kelce and his Kansas City Chiefs won Super Bowl LVIII in overtime. Both halves of the super-couple logged the biggest possible achievements in their respective fields, just a few days apart. Not a bad week!
After the Super Bowl, there was of course much celebrating on the field. Swift was in attendance and when she found her way to Kelce, they shared a nice moment. The two had a lot of hugs and kisses, Swift shared in Kelce’s joy with some encouraging words, and overall, two uber-successful and by all accounts uber-nice people got to enjoy an awesome time together.
The fun didn’t stop there, though. Later in the evening, the two were spotted at a post-Super Bowl celebration with teammates, friends, and family. One adorable clip sees Swift and Kelce dancing to a club-ready remix of Swift’s “Love Story,” singing the song to each other and kissing. Elsewhere, the two sang “You Belong With Me” to each other from across the room and it was also cute.
Nikki Haley continued to fire back at Donald Trump after the former president mocked her husband Michael Haley for not being on the campaign trail. Apparently, no one informed Trump (or he just didn’t care) that Haley’s husband serves in the National Guard and is currently deployed overseas in Africa.
“She comes over to see me at Mar-A-Lago. ‘Sir, I will never run against you,’” Trump said at a rally in Haley’s home state of South Carolina. “She brought her husband. Where’s her husband? Oh, he’s away. He’s away. What happened to her husband? What happened to her husband?! Where is he?! He’s gone. He knew. He knew.”
Ever since Trump made the remarks, Haley has taken her most aggressive swings yet at the Republican frontrunner. After blasting Trump on Twitter, Haley appeared on Fox News where she responded even more fiercely to the remarks about her military husband.
“It’s disgusting!” Haley told Dana Perino. “I mean, every bit of it’s disgusting, you know, to sit there and mock my husband for not being with me on the presidential trail because he is deployed and serving our country.”
“You mock one veteran, you’re mocking all veterans,” she continued. “But this is a pattern, Dana. He’s done this over and over again. Whether he went and called military members suckers, whether he was at Arlington Cemetery saying what was in it for them, why would they do this? The problem with Trump is he’s never been anywhere near a uniform.”
Seeing an opening with Trump’s disparagement of the military, Haley took things even further by also slamming the former president for his highly controversial remarks about allowing Putin to attack NATO allies.
“This is what you’re getting,” Haley told Fox News’ audience of Republican voters. “We can do better than this.”
If you were to ask avid beer drinkers to tell you the one country they’d like to drink their way through, you’d get a lot of people yelling “Belgium!” One of the most respected beer countries in the world, Belgium is home to hundreds of breweries, many of which have been honing their craft for hundreds of years.
When it comes to Belgian beer, there’s something for every palate. The country is known for myriad beer styles, including strong ales, lambics, Flemish ales, pale ales, wheat beers, stouts, and just about everything in between. The best part? Some of the best beers made in this European country are available at your local beer or grocery store.
To help you on your Belgian beer journey, we found eight of the best witbiers, Trappist ales, golden ales, and other Belgian styles that deserve a permanent spot in your refrigerator. Then we ranked them on the overall flavor (you likely know by now that we value balance highly around these parts). Keep scrolling to see them all.
Brewed simply with water, barley malt, candi sugar, hops, and yeast, Orval Trappist Ale was first brewed in 1931. It’s a Belgian pale ale, but it doesn’t taste like your favorite Sierra Nevada Pale Ale though. Bottled with Brettanomyces, it’s known for its funky, yeasty, acidic, fruity, dry flavor profile.
Tasting Notes:
On the nose, you’ll find barnyard notes, bready malts, funky yeast, citrus peels, orchard fruits, and floral hops. Sipping it reveals notes of Belgian yeast, wintry spices, candied orange peels, apples, more barnyard funk, and floral, earthy hops. The finish is dry, lightly acidic, and memorable.
Bottom Line:
Orval is a funky, yeasty, fruity, memorable Trappist Ale that you’ll go back to again and again.
This 8% ABV Belgian blonde bier is a strong ale well-known for its mix of hops, citrus, and gentle spices. This award-winning, highly popular beer has been brewed the same way since its creation in the early 1980s. Crisp, refreshing, complex, and surprisingly easy to find in the US.
Tasting Notes:
Bananas, cloves, fruit esters, tropical fruits, and yeasty bread aromas make for a unique nose. The palate is loaded with yeast, banana bread, dried fruits, cloves, pepper, orange peel, and floral hops. The finish is crisp, refreshing, and pleasantly yeasty.
Bottom Line:
At 8% ABV, you’d assume this is a heavier beer. But it’s surprisingly light and flavorful. This is a can’t-miss blonde ale.
Created to be a Christmas ale back in 1954, Chimay Grande Réserve is a 9% Belgian strong ale that’s perfect for the colder months. Known for its mix of malt sweetness, dried fruits, caramel, and light floral hops, it’s an iconic, beloved Belgian beer for good reason.
Tasting Notes:
A nose of chocolate, raisins, caramel malts, light spices, and yeasty bread makes for a welcoming beginning to this beer. Drinking it brings forth notes of raisins, dates, brown bread, caramel candy, cloves, candied orange peels, licorice, and chocolate. It’s warming, sweet, and loaded with complex flavors.
Bottom Line:
This is the kind of beer that’s so filled with rich flavors, that it will take you multiple samplings to even come close to finding them all.
This popular beer is simply made with barley, oats, and wheat. The result is a highly complex beer featuring barley, yeasty bread flavors, and a light, easy-drinking body. Vanilla, caramel, citrus, and gentle spices make for a very unique, elegant beer.
Tasting Notes:
Nosing it brings forth aromas of candied orange peels, cloves, cinnamon, vanilla beans, dried fruits, and caramel candy. The palate is a symphony of toasted vanilla beans, toffee candy, orange peels, lemon, wintry spices, and earthy, lightly floral hops.
Bottom Line:
This beer is as surprisingly simple in its ingredients as it is complex in its aromas and flavors.
When it comes to wheat beers, it’s tough to beat the appeal of those coming out of Belgian. One of the best is Blanche de Bruxelles. This unfiltered, cloudy, hazy, yeasty, sweet wheat-filled beer gets added flavor from the addition of coriander and dried orange peel in the boiling process.
Tasting Notes:
Complex aromas of candied orange peel, sweet wheat, yeasty bread, coriander, and other spices make for an outstanding start to this beer. On the palate, you’ll find notes of yeasty bready malts, caramel, lemon peels, coriander, candied orange peels, and cracked black pepper.
Bottom Line:
Fruity, sweet, yeasty, spicy, this is an extremely flavorful beer. It’s a great wheat beer for winter (and the rest of the year).
This 10% top-fermented quadrupel is St. Bernardus’ flagship beer for good reason. Brewed using the original 1946 recipe, it’s known for its balanced, sweet, fruity, lightly bitter flavor profile. It’s also one of the highest-rated beers in the world, Belgian or otherwise.
Tasting Notes:
A lot is going on with this beer’s nose. There are scents of banana peels, fruit esters, raisins, dates, tannic aromas, caramel malts, and light spices. Tasting it brings forth notes of chocolate, plums, dried cherries, cloves, butterscotch, brown bread, honey, and warming, boozy notes. The finish is semi-sweet and leaves you craving more.
Bottom Line:
This is a masterfully crafted beer. It’s highly rated for good reason. It has a perfect mix of sweetness, booze, and light bitterness.
There are few Belgian beers as well-known as Delirium Tremens. Brewed with three types of yeast as well as pale malt, it gets its hop presence from the use of Styrian Golding and Saaz hops. The result is a memorable, flavorful Belgian strong ale that’s beloved all over the world.
Tasting Notes:
Classic Belgian wheat beer aromas of banana, clove, bubblegum, orange peel, yeasty, and wheat begin your Delirium Tremens journey. Sipping it brings up notes of dried cherries, yeast, sweet wheat, lemongrass, candied orange peels, bubblegum, and wintry spices.
Bottom Line:
If you enjoy classic banana, clove, and other spices in your wheat beer, this is the beer for you.
This 6.5% ABV Saison is one of the most popular, easy-to-find Belgian beers on the market. Brewed since 1844, it was originally crafted to be a beer imbibed by farm workers on hot summer days. This beer is brewed during the winter months before being fermented in wooden barrels during the spring. It’s known for its unfiltered, citrus, and fruit-forward flavor profile.
Tasting Notes:
Fruit, cloves, bananas, yeasty bread, fruit esters, dried fruit, and caramel malts make for a great, memorable nose. The palate is filled with flavors like yeasty bread, dried fruits, cloves, bananas, cloves, pepper, funk, straw, and grassy hops. The finish is crisp, dry, and flavorful.
Bottom Line:
If you only drink one Belgian beer on this list, make it Saison Dupont. Even though it drinks best during the hazy summer months, don’t wait. Drink it right now — it’s delicious!
The signature basketball sneaker is a right of passage for all great players of the game. It’s a chance for a rising star to join the great lineage of the Chuck Taylor, the Puma Clyde, and of course, the Air Jordan. Nobody changed the game like Michael Jordan — both on the court and on store shelves — and while new Jordan drops still garner a great amount of hype, we’re currently living in an era of future classics.

We’re talking about the latest kicks from the likes of Ja Morant, LaMelo Ball, Kevin Durant, and Steph Curry, players who are redefining Hoops Culture in their image. These players are all fans of loud and attention-grabbing colorways that are as fashionable as they are functional on the court.
We’re not saying buying these sneakers is going to give you game like the greats, but you’re going to look damn good trying.
Check out the latest Dime Breakdowns to get a peek into what’s hot in current-day signatures.
It can be easy to write-off younger generations as entitled, lazy and unwilling to work hard, without taking into account the very real challenges being faced.
Just like their “whiny millennial” predecessors, Gen Zers often find themselves in this predicament—unable to land a job, much less one that reflects their personal values, all while being labeled as“difficult” for wanting something better.
But the truth is, even hard-working people are struggling right now. That goes for people who are employed (many of whom are living paycheck-to-paycheck, despite having well-paying jobs) and those looking for employment.
Job hunting is particularly grueling, as looming fears of recession have caused companies to make candidates go through more obstacles than a contestant on “American Ninja Warrior” just to get one interview. Followed by six more interviews. Followed by crickets.
With these types of barriers set in place, how is an age group, likely just out of college, with virtually no workplace experience, supposed to stand a chance? And furthermore, how can they not be distraught when their survival is on the line?
This is why a video shared by 26-year-old Lohanny Santos has struck a chord with so many.
In the clip, tears stream down Santos’ face after going around the city with a “stack” of resumes and being rejected by every potential employer she reached out to.
The college grad explained how she had two degrees—one in communications and one in acting—and spoke three languages. Not even this was enough to get her an interview.
“It’s honestly a little bit embarrassing because I’m literally applying for, like, minimum-wage jobs,” she says. “And some of them are being like, ‘We’re not hiring’ and it’s like, ‘What?’ This is not what I expected.”
Far from being entitled, Santos concluded the video by wiping her eyes and saying “ … I’m just going to keep trying.”
Luckily, this is where the story turns around. After her video went viral, with over 23.4 million views on TikTok, Santos received a wave of support from viewers.
“Never feel embarrassed. You should feel proud that you’re pushing your pride to the side and being realistic,” one person wrote, commenting on the fact that Santos had begun her job search after her aspirations for being a TikTok creator weren’t paying the bills.
“This is precisely how you apply for jobs before the internet. nothing to be embarrassed about as this gives you real world sales experience,” another added.
Some even provided some tips. One person suggested: “Don’t ask if they’re hiring. Just say you want to apply & speak to a hiring manager. Be assertive.”
“GIRL APPLY TO BE A FLIGHT ATTENDANT!!! BARELY AND EXPERIENCE NEEDED AND WITH THREE LANGUAGES THEY WILL WANT YOUU,” another exclaimed.
Not only that, But Santos revealed with Business Insider that her following skyrocketed overnight, that she was being offered opportunities not previously available. In a follow-up video, she even shared that she scored a brand deal.
A brand deal which…..may or may not have taken her out to London? Not a bad gig. And it certainly seems like those TikTok dreams aren’t so unattainable after all.
Most people want to be contributing members of society. But times are tough for a lot of folks out there, regardless of age, background and education. A little compassion, as we see here, does in fact go a long way.
The Hawks have won six of their last eight to create some breathing room for the 10th spot in the East and certainly seem destined for another Play-In appearance, but at 24-29, they’d need an incredible second half to really create some true optimism for the future with this group. Most expect the Hawks to make a trade of some kind this summer, both for roster reasons and tax reasons (Tony Ressler has yet to pay the luxury tax as an owner and Atlanta has not exactly been stealthy when making moves for cap reasons in the past), but what that trade is remains to be seen.
Murray’s play of late has sparked a certain segment of fans in Atlanta to call for the Hawks to build around him rather than All-Star guard Trae Young, and it appears the front office is at least willing to consider such a course change, as reported by Marc Stein in his newsletter on Monday.
I can tell you this much: They’ve certainly convinced various rival teams that a Dejounte In/Trae Out course is going to be legitimately considered.
The Hawks, to be clear, have not made a firm decision yet. This isn’t the time to lock into such a lane with 29 games left in Atlanta’s season and a trip to the Play-In round, at the very least, more than within reach. How the rest of the season plays out is obviously going to factor into those next steps.
The decision to keep Murray, however, certainly has more than a few front offices out there believing that the Hawks could reach the point — provided this season doesn’t end well — that they entertain the most dramatic possible reset.
Now, how much of this is opposing front offices wishcasting Young onto the trade market is unclear, as it wouldn’t be surprising if other teams wanted the All-Star guard to become available rather than Murray. That said, I wouldn’t put anything past this Hawks front office and it also could come down to whether Young applies any pressure to the organization after another difficult year.
Young is having one of his best statistical seasons as a pro, yet needed an injury replacement selection to make the All-Star team, and despite a noticeable uptick in defensive effort this year, he still carries a reputation as a one-way, “empty stats” guy to many fans. He may come to the conclusion sooner than later that a fresh start might be needed to shed that label. Adding to the intrigue of the guard dilemma in Atlanta is both Murray and Young are repped by the same agency, and Klutch Sports has to walk a fine line navigating what’s best for both of their clients.
In 2022, Kim Petras dropped the Slut Pop EP. Now she’s coming back for more with the recently announced project Slut Pop Miami. Here’s what to know about the upcoming release.
Release Date
Slut Pop Miami is out 2/14 via Republic. Find more information here.
Tracklist
So far, Petras has yet to share a tracklist for the project. In November 2023, she and David Guetta released the collaboration “When We Were Young (The Logical Song),” so perhaps that will be included on Slut Pop Miami (or perhaps it’s just a one-off collab that has nothing to do with Slut Pop Miami).
Singles
Petras has not shared any confirmed singles from the album, although as aforementioned, perhaps “When We Were Young (The Logical Song)” is one. A teaser video that Petras shared on February 7 includes a snippet of new music, though.
Since there is no announced tracklist, there are no confirmed features on the album. Furthermore, Petras does not appear to have teased any collaborations for the project.
Artwork
Slut Pop Miami does not yet have confirmed album cover artwork, but there is a Slut Pop Miami logo featured in the teaser video above.
At Super Bowl LVIII, not only did the Kansas City Chiefs break the dreaded “Drake curse,” but they also won him $1 million after his 2:1 bet on them paid off big time. Drake’s partnership with betting app Stake has notoriously earned — and lost — him a lot of money, but this time around, he had a good reason for putting his money on the eventual winners: “I can’t bet against the Swifties,” he wrote in the caption of his Instagram post declaring the bet.
Later, after all was said and done and the 49ers’ defensive coach failed a simple pattern recognition test in overtime, Drake posted his celebration to his Instagram Story, revealing that he and his friends had accidentally broken a plate in their excitement, ruining some “good crepes” in the process. Drake also teased his mans about taking credit for the win, correcting him for saying “we won a million dollars” with a quick, “I won a million dollars.”
This marks the second time Drake has won over a million betting on the Super Bowl; last year, even he couldn’t believe his bet on Kansas City Chiefs, calling it “psychotic.” Maybe the curse only applies to non-Super Bowl sporting events — or Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes are simply immune.
