Being good at general trivia is one thing, but being well-versed in hyper-specific sports data is something that not everyone is capable of. Jeopardy! had been so popular for years for a reason, and now they want to zero in with even more obscure trivia, though this time, without Ken Jennings.
Earlier this summer, it was announced that Colin Jost would step in to host Pop Culture Jeopardy, a new iteration of the game show, and there might even be more spinoffs on the way. A new job listing for Supervising Producer, Contestant Recruitment & Development was posted to the official Jeopardy social media pages, and in the job description it seemed to reveal that a Sports iteration of the series is in the works.
The job description states: “We are looking for someone who has passion and love for Jeopardy!. Maybe you’re a former contestant, or actively involved in the Jeopardy! community or have always dreamt of working at Jeopardy! Whatever the motivation, we’re looking for someone who can enhance Jeopardy!‘s culture and bring a different perspective to the contestant selection process.”
This is where it gets interesting: under the “Responsibilities” section of the job description, Sports Jeopardy is mentioned. “Spearhead Jeopardy!’s efforts to recruit the best players possible to take the Anytime Test and any future specific test (i.e. Pop Culture and Sports Jeopardy!).” We know Jost is locked in for the former, but no word yet on who will host the latter.
This isn’t the first time Jeopardy has ventured into sports territory. Sports Jeopardy was a short-lived spinoff hosted by Dan Patrick from 2014-2016 which never seemed to take off. If only there was a mega-popular athlete who recently began a hosting gig in the off season who could apply for that job….!
Meanwhile, Ken Jennings has no plans to leave the flagship show, according to an insider who says he is “He’s desperate” to make it work and has “no intention of leaving of his own accord.” Jennings has been frequently criticized by fans over the years, though it’s hard to fill Trebek’s shoes.
The source continued, “Privately he would acknowledge these are tough times — especially with Colin Jost coming on to host Pop Culture Jeopardy! and fans calling him awkward, which is hard to take.” Jennings might not want to leave of his own accord, but there is always a chance he will get a foot infection and be forced to leave the gig. It does happen!
When it’s all said and done, Issa Rae will be remembered as a legend in the entertainment industry for multiple reasons. Insecure, the TV series Rae created, wrote, and starred in for its five seasons, was a fixture in pop culture during its 2016-2021 run and remains a classic TV series. Though Insecure plays a big part in Rae’s legend, it’s what she’s done outside of it that is worth the same amount of praise and celebration. In an industry that has a short leash on Black art and Black stories, something Rae experienced with the cancellation of Rap Sh!t, Issa Rae is taking matters into her own hands to ensure that Black art has a well-deserved life.
In January, after two seasons, Rap Sh!t was not renewed for a third season at HBO Max, and two weeks later, Rae appeared in TIME Magazine’s “The Closers” series where she talked about the unfilled promises made by Hollywood. “I’ve never seen Hollywood this scared and clueless, and at the mercy of Wall Street,” she said. She later added, “There is a bitterness of just like, who suffers from you guys pulling back? People of color always do.”
Nowadays, Rae is doing her best to ensure that people of color can evade this kind of suffering in the industry. In May, ColorCreative, Rae, Deneise Davis, and Talitha Watkins‘ management and production company, teamed up with Tubi to create Stubios, a fan-led studio for aspiring filmmakers and their fans. There, first-time filmmakers and creatives from non-traditional backgrounds will get the support they need to bring larger-scale film projects to life with help from the ColorCreative team.
That same month, Rae also launched Ensemble, a company focused on connecting brands with Black and brown creators. Ensemble has already begun work with 50 creators like Mark Phillips from the RDCWorld collective, known for their comedic videos on social media, while brands like Pepsi, Chili’s, and Popeyes have Ensemble’s roster. These recent moves with ColorCreative, Ensemble, and others have simply fulfilled a promise that Rae made in that TIME Magazine interview. “I have my little stake in this limited plot of land, and I’m gonna make sure that I bring in as many people to live on it as possible,” Rae said. “So until we run out of opportunities, they’ll be good.”
This DIY mentality is what made Insecure and other creative endeavors a success for Rae. In 2011, Rae launched The Mis-Adventures of Awkward Black Girl series on YouTube. Five years later, it was adapted into what we now know as Insecure. Long before its adaptation, Awkward Black Girl was an undeniable success, earning critical acclaim and winning a Shorty Award for Best Web Series in 2012. Nearly 15 years later, Issa Rae’s DIY spirit is still alive and well because she’s been forced to keep it that way.
In addition to continuing work with her upcoming projects, like her upcoming comedy film that stars SZA and Keke Palmer and reprising her role as Jess Drew/Spider-Woman in Spider-Man: Beyond The Spider-Verse, Issa Rae is also making sure other talented Black creatives are getting the opportunities to do it themselves. Earlier this month, Rae signed actor, writer, and popular social media star, Joshua Neal, to ColorCreative. “We were blown away by his creativity when we discovered his short films and original content a few years ago,” ColorCreative’s co-head of talent Danielle Robinson said. Prior to that, Issa Rae signed Grammy-nominated producer ThankGod4Cody – who produced seven tracks on SZA’s SOS album – and emerging singers Jae Stephens and GAWD to her record label, Raedio. It’s all been a result of Issa Rae acknowledging the good, bad, and ugly of today’s media landscape: “It’s made me take more steps to try to be independent down the line if I have to,” Rae noted in a January 2024 interview with Net-A-Porter.
Rae’s independent streak is an example and a result of the growing distrust that Black creatives and other people of color have with the entertainment industry. Promises to tell their stories backed by a crew of supporters intended to ensure that these projects came to life were short-lived — if at all fulfilled. As noted in Rae’s interview with Net-A-Porter, commitments that major studios made in 2020 to ward diversity have proven to be largely performative. Additionally, Adweek reported that data from workforce database Revelio Labs revealed that DEI positions declined by 5% in 2023.
When you consider this, it’s no surprise that Issa Rae has taken matters into her own hands. Yes, her ties to big corporations like HBO remain in place, but her own endeavors outside of them are slowly taking up a larger piece of the pie. The industry has forced the hands of Black creatives to find other means and mediums to tell their stories, and though Rae can’t single-handedly fix it by herself, her approach to uplifting Black voices is one that the industry should take note of, because there’s value in our stories.
Thanks to Kendrick Lamar and his inescapable hit “Not Like Us,” the city of Compton is back on the map in a big way. His Kendrick & Friends concert put a ton of the city’s rap talent on display, giving both veteran performers and rising stars a new chance to shine on the national level.
That included Kendrick collaborator and fellow Hub City native YG and his main producer Mustard, but oddly, didn’t include their other fellow citizen, The Game, who didn’t quite join in on the Drake hate train. In fact, some fans think Game even has beef with YG and Mustard. So, what’s going on there?
On August 28, after making some cryptic posts on Instagram Stories, Game called out the other two. But the first batch of posts and the second were unconnected, according to Game, who cleared the air in a later post. “Rooting for somebody & finding out they secretly hate u is so crazy,” he wrote initially. “Secret haters are clutch.. yall make ballin in yo face worth it.” But in another slide, he wrote, “Aye Keenon & Dijon [YG and Mustard’s real names, respectively]… Jayceon [Game’s real name] looking for y’all. Ghetto name havin n****s.” It’s fair that fans connected the two statements, making Mustard and YG out to be the “secret haters,” but in the comments of a post reporting the alleged beef, Jayceon quickly cleared the air.
“@yg & @mustard My n**gas 5L,” he wrote. “Go twist a backwood before you twist that #Bompton.” It’s more likely that his call-out was an invitation to collaborate, which the two have done more than a few times over the years. Game and YG most recently collaborated on their Compton peace walk negotiating a truce between two rival gangs in their shared hometown. So, it seems improbable that Game would be starting beef with YG now.
Irv Gotti’s supposed fight in the courtroom is just heating up. But, the mogul’s battle to conquer his health appears to be under control. On August 28, TMZ reported that the Murder Inc boss suffered a stroke at the top of the year.
After taking time to recovery, Irv Gotti is ready to get back to work. According to The Shade Room, his first post-stroke project includes a biopic about his late dear friend, DMX.
Not much is known (expected release date, casting information, format, etc.) about the forthcoming project. However, DMX’s meteoric rise to fame and subsequent struggles with all were well-documented. So, there are plenty of things (documentaries, autobiography, etc.) to pull from.
As for Irv Gotti’s health update, a representative for the executive shared a statement. “Irv is not in a rehab facility,” said the rep. “He is at home with his family, enjoying life. Irv has been struggling with diabetes for years, which caused him to have a minor stroke over six months ago. He has since changed his diet to eating more healthy. He’s been successful in making a full recovery.”
Meanwhile, Irv laughed it, saying, “I’m getting older. That’s all. Only thing worse than getting old is not getting old.”
If you think oatmeal is only for your breakfast bowl and not your pint glass, you’re missing out. Popular since the 1800s in England, the oatmeal stout gets its name because of the high percentage of oats in the mash on top of the usual barley. Well known for its sweet, rich flavor profile, the oats give the beer a creamy, smooth mouthfeel. While most popular during the colder months, this stout is a great choice for any season.
It doesn’t matter if it’s the middle of winter, a rainy spring day, a humid summer night, or a windy, crisp fall afternoon, barrel-aged stouts, milk stouts, imperial stouts, and oatmeal stouts always deliver something worth exploring. A great stout plays on the senses in that wonderfully refreshing way only a great beer can.
To help guide you on your oat-filled adventure, we decided to shout out some of our favorites. We found eight of the best oatmeal stouts that are perfect for all seasons and ranked them on overall flavor. Keep scrolling to see them all.

Sydney Sweeney’s fast-moving career has been chaotic for the past few years, but lately, she has purposefully been taking a breather another busy stretch. That time off has included posting a “thirst trap” and, presumably, hitting the gym hard (to get jacked, obviously) for upcoming filming on her boxing movie. This film will be a biopic of prizefighter Christy Martin, the so-called “Female Rocky” boxer who ruled the 1990s welterweight circuit, and a clue indicates that the movie will arrive before Euphoria‘s third season, which will be filming at a later date. Sorry, Syd’s upcoming projects do not include that rumored Glen Powell re-teaming for The Running Man remake.
Sweeney also insists that her Barbarella reboot will surface, but before that happens, she will be getting into the ring in fighting shape, so let’s get down with what we can expect.
Plot

Christy Martin’s story will not be a straightforward trajectory to victory. A casting notice reveals the film’s working title, Apopka, which suggests that her personal life will be a significant part of the story. Indeed, Apopka is the Florida city where Martin was shot in 2010 by her then-husband and manager, Jim Martin, who shot and maimed his wife after she informed him that their marriage was over. Despite being a champ in the ring and Don King’s first female signee, Christy endured years of emotional and physical abuse by Jim, who was convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to 25 years.
Filming will reportedly take place in late September through mid November, and the film will be directed by David Michôd (Animal Kingdom, War Machine, Hesher, The King), who cast Sweeney after seeing her true-crime turn in HBO’s Reality. Sweeney has years of experience in kickboxing and is “itching” to “transform my body.” She also called this role “physically and emotionally demanding, there’s a lot of weight to carry. But I love challenging myself.”
Martin has spoken about her domestic abuse ordeal, and both CBS News and The Guardian have reported at length about her physical injuries, as has ESPN, which has (you were warned) an incredibly graphic description along with an account by Christy’s mother about her arrival at the hospital:
Joyce says that when she was at last able to lay eyes on her daughter, it took her breath away. “She had tubes running everywhere, stitches all over her head, on her face. It’s something you never forget.”
Joyce was relieved when she learned Martin was able to speak. The first thing her daughter said to her? “I told you he was crazy, Mom.”
Earlier in their marriage, Jim had punched Martin in the mouth so hard her tooth pierced through her lip. The day it happened, Martin went to the bathroom to clean herself up. As she blotted her face, a few spots of blood dripped onto an obscured section of the wall. Martin decided to leave them there. For years, she’d carefully clean around the bloodstains, taking care not to erase them. Proof of life.
For the upcoming Black Bear and Anonymous Content film, Mirrah Foulkes and Michôd co-wrote the script, and Michôd summarized his approach to the film:
“The film is about Christy as a young gay woman in small-town West Virginia in the 1990s. She came from a relatively conservative family and wasn’t allowed to be who she was so she used boxing as a vehicle to express herself and her rage. She had to make some dangerous and fundamental compromises in her life, the most important of which was marrying an incredibly dangerous man.”
Cast
Sweeney as Martin is the only role that has been publicly confirmed. Jim Martin has yet to be cast, and presumably, we’ll also see a Don King portrayal.
Release Date
With filming scheduled to be complete before the end of 2024, we can bet on a 2025 arrival, likely with festival premieres leading up to the main event. Should we guess fall-winter 2025? Sure.
Trailer
Since filming is around the corner, we will make do with two interviews, including Sweeney telling Women’s Health that it’s important to stay fit because it’s “really fun to be able to kick a guy’s ass.”
The second interview includes Sweeney’s statements on overcoming her past body dysmorphia, and (whether or not she realizes it), there’s some serious role-model-ing going on here.
While promoting her new album, Short N’ Sweet, pop star Sabrina Carpenter tweeted, “This one is for Nicki,” prompting “Barbie World” rapper Nicki Minaj to acknowledge the “Espresso” singer during a livestream. Fans quickly deduced that Carpenter was out for revenge on Nicki’s behalf, involving herself in a long-running rivalry between the Queens rapper and Travis Scott. Here’s a refresher on why Nicki Minaj has beef with Travis Scott, and just how Carpenter fits in.
You may remember that Minaj pitched quite a fit in 2018 after Scott’s album Astroworld returned to the No. 1 spot in its second week, relegating Minaj’s new album Queen to a No. 2 debut after Nicki campaigned heavily for the top spot. Her main grievance was that many of Astroworld‘s second-week sales came from merch bundles the Houston rapper pitched on his website, which Nicki felt was unfair, as fans were really buying the merch, not the album, but Travis got the sales anyway.
“I put my blood sweat & tears in writing a dope album only for Travis Scott to have Kylie Jenner post a tour pass telling people to come see her and Stormi,” she wrote on Twitter, before restating her case on Queen Radio. She argued that Billboard should change its counting rules — and it did, eventually — but she was unhappy at the possibility that her project might be seen as a relative failure based on the bar of going No. 1 in its first week (which, technically, she set herself, but we’ll leave that alone for a moment).
Which brings us to today, and Sabrina Carpenter. Clearly, Carpenter counts herself one of Minaj’s loyal Barbz (hopefully, not the toxic kind that bullied journalists and other artists on her behalf). With Short N’ Sweet released on the same day as the re-release to streaming of Scott’s breakout mixtape Days Before Rodeo, it looks like Sabrina sees this as a chance to get justice for Ms. Minaj, if her album can top the Billboard 200 over Scott’s — especially as Scott appears to be up to his old shenanigans. Frankly, everybody here seems way too obsessed with the numbers game, especially as they’re probably not even all competing for the same limited group of fans. Maybe they’d all be better served joining adult sports leagues, so they can get their winning fix somewhere more productive. What I’m saying here is: Bring back Rock N’ Jock. For the culture.
The UK’s hottest and fastest rising girl group, FLO, wants their music to touch all corners of the globe. This winter the trio (comprised of Jorja Douglas, Stella Quaresma, and Renée Downer) will accomplish just that when their debut studio album, Access All Areas, hit streaming services.
For now, the harmonious ladies are treating supporters to another silky smooth single slated to appear on Access All Areas. “Bending My Rules,” produced by Darhyl ‘DJ’ Camper Jr. is yet another example of why the group has taken off in the ways that they have. Between Jorja, Stella, and Renée’s flawless three part vocal blends and the penetrative lyrics co-authored by DIXON, “Bending My Rules” is the purest essence of R&B. Contrary to the song’s title, FLO hasn’t deviated from or cut any corner when it comes to rounding out this infectious record.
As the group sings, “But I’m nervous / I don’t do this / With just anyone, but you’re bendin’ my rules / Cause I’m nervous, I’m so nеrvous / I don’t want nobody, nobody like I want you,” you can’t help but take on their raw sensibilities.
Listen to FLO’s new single “Bending My Rules” off their upcoming album, Access All Areas, above.
Access All Areas is out 11/15 via Island Records. Find more information here.
You think Taylor Sheridan is prodigious? Check out Ryan Murphy’s filmography.
He’s had a hand in some of the biggest shows on broadcast (Glee, 9-1-1, 9-1-1: Lone Star), cable (American Horror Story), and streaming, including Netflix’s The Watcher and Ratched. Murphy is also listed as the co-creator of Monster, an anthology series that covered Jeffrey Dahmer in season one. The popular show will return for a second season soon, this time about Lyle and Erik Menendez, a.k.a. the Menendez brothers. Hopefully without the controversy.
Here’s everything to know about Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story, including who was picked to portray the Menéndez family and release date.
Plot
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story is a dramatized retelling of the crimes committed by Lyle and Erik Menéndez, who were convicted in 1996 for the murders of their parents, Jose and Mary Louise “Kitty” Menendez. The trial wasn’t an O.J. Simpson-level sensation (as covered in Murphy’s excellent The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story) but it wasn’t far behind.
As Rolling Stone‘s Brenna Ehrlich wrote in 2017, “The Menendez case, which played out in large part on TV screens across the country — and featured a cast of lively, almost garish characters — personified a shocking erosion of the American Dream to its enraptured audience. It turned real-life tragedy into live entertainment, and foreshadowed our current fascination with true-crime docuseries and reality TV.” That was seven years ago! There’s even more now.
If you want to learn all about the case, Robert Rand’s book The Menendez Murders: The Shocking Untold Story of the Menendez Family and the Killings that Stunned the Nation is a good place to start. As for the show, here is the official plot synopsis provided by Netflix:
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story follows Lyle and Erik Menendez, two brothers who fatally shot their parents in their Beverly Hills home in 1989. During their trials, the brothers cited years of abuse as the reason for murdering their parents. However, prosecutors argued that their motive was to get their hands on the family fortune.
Nicholas Chavez and Cooper Koch star as brothers Lyle and Erik Menéndez, respectively, while their parents José and Kitty are portrayed by Javier Bardem (who knows a thing or two about monsters) and Chloë Sevigny.
The rest of the cast includes Nathan Lane as investigative journalist Dominick Dunne; Ari Graynor as district attorney Leslie Abramson; Dallas Roberts as therapist Dr. Jerome Oziel; Leslie Grossman as Judalon Smyth, the mistress of Dr. Oziel; Jason Butler Harner as Beverly Hills detective Les Zoeller; Enrique Murciano as Lyle and Erik’s uncle Carlos Baralt; and Gil Ozeri as Dr. William Vicary, who should not be confused with Dr. Sweetchat the Small Talk Robot.
Release Date
Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story will debut on Netflix on September 19, just over 35 years after the crime took place.
Trailer
You can watch the teaser trailer for Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story below.
Ice Spice has long shown that she’s proud of her body, as her figure is commonly referenced in her songs (“Phat Butt,” for example) and flaunted in her videos. Now she’s showing off what it takes to take care of her body by unveiling a new workout video.
In the 18-second clip (find it here), Ice is in a gym, rocking a tight bodysuit and a crop-top hoodie as she stretches, lifts weights, uses various pieces of workout equipment, does planks, and runs. She captioned the post, “we beatin them allegations bae [laughing emoji][heart emoji][100 emoji].”
Presumably, “them allegations” refers to recent accusations she has faced, of using Ozempic to help her lose weight. She addressed that previously: During an X Spaces broadcast on August 19, Ice said, “I wish y’all never learned the word ‘Ozempic.’ That’s one thing I wish. Oh my god, like, what even is Ozempic? What the f*ck is that? Like, genuinely, what is that, bro? Like, you lazy [expletive] never heard of a gym? It’s called the gym, it’s called eating healthy, it’s called being on tour. Like, what the hell? Maybe if I was sitting home all day, it would be easier to stay big.”
