Absolutely looved this episode. So spot on. The Daniel BD bit especially. I just want to scream when it comes to Daniel, the man is quality and when you compare his treatment by ECB compared to Crawley I just lose my shit. Sack off England Daniel, become an international cricketer in Maroon!

Four colors for auditoriums from within four abandoned elementary schools in Detroit, Michigan. So many plays, band concerts, holiday performances and class end-year graduations happened in these now forgotten halls, many facing demolition soon. #abandoned #urbex #EastCoastKin #Detroit #photography

Elon Musk is calling for the CFPB's remaining account balance of $711,586,678 to be returned to the American taxpayers. That you give everyone $2-$3. But returning Elon Musk’s money to taxpayers would give everyone about $1,300 each.

🚨NEW CCP VIDEO🚨 With England forever tiefing West Indian players @mashstpaddy.bsky.social jumped into the CCP studio to look at our own diaspora talent. Time for CWI to think outside the box & expand the talent pool just like the Reggae Boyz youtu.be/ebWqkvdXQ6Y

looking on book recommendations on building demolition in Detroit...buildings got knocked down so quickly in the 50s and 60s - why? just saying "urban renewal" seems oversimplistic for example, the Gotham Hotel at John R and Mack closed in 1962 was demolished in 1963 lolol
