ESPN+ costs $7 per month or $70 per year, giving you access to a ton of content. You’ll also need to purchase the pay-per-view fight for $75.

An even better deal than paying $7 per month or $70 per year is to sign up to the Disney Bundle. The bundle costs just $14 per month and gives you access to ESPN+, Disney+, and ad-supported Hulu. If you paid for these separately, it would cost you $22 per month so you effectively get one of these services for free each month by consolidating.

ESPN+ gives you access to PGA Tour golf, Major League Baseball, NCAA basketball, and Top Rank Boxing. It also has ESPN original content and documentaries including the award-winning 30 for 30 series, which is sure to grip sports fans.

Sign up to the Disney Bundle, and you get access to both classic and new Disney, Pixar, Marvel, and Star Wars films. That includes the best Disney+ originals like The Mandalorian.

Hulu offers up access to its huge library of the best shows on Hulu, plenty of movies, as well as Hulu originals.

The Disney Bundle is a great way to cut the cord, but for everyone else, ESPN+ is a bargain at $7 per month or $70 per year. Sign up to it now and hook yourself up with a Fury vs. Whyte PPV ticket for $70, and enjoy the biggest fight of the year so far.

Do you know the myth of Napoleon (the pig…not the man)

Napoleon

One of the many times I watched The Gentlemen, I laughed at the scene where Matthew (Jeremy Strong) joked that it was illegal in France to name a pig Napoleon. Of course, there are ridiculous laws all over the place. Want a few? In Georgia, it is illegal to eat fried chicken with a fork. In Arkansas, it is against the law to say the name incorrectly. Which means Bill Clinton would have come after me for years of me saying “ARE-Kansas.” It is prohibited to sleep on top of a refrigerator in Pennsylvania. That means my cat is a thug in Penn. And one of my favorites: It is illegal for unmarried women to parachute on Sundays.

The point is that there are crazy laws all over the place that seem completely ridiculous, and there is almost always a story behind them. So, is the Napoleon pig law a real thing? Is it illegal to raise a swine and name it after the legendary French Emperor? Well, let’s dig in. Why? Because I am a nerd and I need company in the weeds.

Who does James Bond work for? And is MI6 real?

James Bond Specter double breasted

We have some news on the movement of the next James Bond. According to reports, we are looking at the final four (we know of three). Jack Lowden (Slow Horses, Dunkirk), Callum Turner (Eternity, One Night Only), and Josh O’Connor (The Crown, Challengers) are all in the final running to portray the next 007. We also, allegedly, have a fourth, unannounced actor in the running. But of course we do. And since we have news and movement on the James Bond front, I started thinking about what the next movie will be about. That took me down a rabbit hole, and I landed on a question. What is MI6? James Bond’s employer is a shadowy government agency, like Jason Bourne’s Treadstone or Ethan Hunt’s Impossible Mission Force (IMF). But there is one major difference between them and the organization that signs 007’s paychecks.

His is real.

A toast to excellence: Don’t overthink lighting a cigar…but don’t underthink it either

Face, Head, Person

When I first decided I was ready to try cigars for the first time, I was ready to jump right in and sit back to enjoy the experience. Then, something crazy happened. I couldn’t light it. It seemed so simple. Flame, meet cigar. It really couldn’t be that complicated. But I ran into a slew of problems. The wrong kind of flame, canoeing, an uneven burn, and the damn thing kept going out, causing me to restart the embarrassing process. So I reached out to my friends over at La Aurora to find out what I was doing wrong.

That is when I found out from their own John Gaglio that these issues are very common and there is no reason to be embarrassed. Instead, don’t overthink lighting your cigar. And don’t underthink it. Instead, try to use the following tips and enjoy the experience without shame.
