The Richard Sherman Podcast (2021) [/] I listened to the first four episodes which started when he was signed on with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He talks about himself and his football preparation and journey. He interviews teammates and other players. I like his veteran player's perspective on the game and how it plays in the field rather than an outsider's perspective which tends to focus on more stats and what the camera sees. Still, I'm not enough of a fan of football in general to keep listening to a non-49ers podcast.
Movie - Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City (2021) [-] Reboots the franchise and based on the reboot of the video game series. Claire Redfield (Kaya Scodelario) returns to a dying, mostly abandoned Raccoon City just in time for a zombie infestation. Meanwhile brother Chris (Robbie Amell) and members of STARS Alpha Team investigate a spooky mansion and start getting separated and torn apart by zombies... This is more of a horror film than the previous Resident Evil and yet less scary than Milla Jovovich's version which I guess is a bit more of a high-tech dungeon crawl.
iOS Game - Ace Defender (2021) [-] Free to play fantasy combat game. Collect heroes and level and gear them up. Then fight 6 on 6 in TFT-style combats (i.e. set your team and watch them go) or do a parallel Tower Defense track. It is iPhone-only though the graphics are not bad at 2x on my iPad. Still, uninteresting gameplay.
