Basketball Players: Best Picture Winners with Noah Savage Know Your Role(s)

On today’s episode, Know Your Role(s) welcomes ESPN broadcaster, comedian, & “Chip King” Noah Savage to the pod! Topics on tap in today’s Bar Talk include the first F1 series race, “Severance” on AppleTV+, and this week’s Bartender's Choice courtesy of Dave, who brings Indiewire’s “41 Great Films That Failed at the Box Office” to the bar. Both a former Princeton basketball player and a regular sports broadcaster, Noah brings a unique perspective to the game, as he, George, and Dave chat college bball predictions, tv coverage and the overproduced landscape of marketed sports, and what it’s like to go from player to comic to commentator. This week’s game goes from court to cinema as the gang compares basketball players to Best Picture winners from Dwight Howard’s “Driving Miss Daisy” to Liz Cambage’s “No Country for Old Men” to Klay Thompson’s “The Departed.” In today’s Last Call, George is looking forward to comedy and concerts over the weekend while Dave gets excited for "Killing Eve" Season 4, the trailer for Alex Garland’s "Men," and "Windfall" on Netflix.
