Aaron Rodgers clears air on 'racy' Drew Allar DM rumors on Cam Heyward podcast: 'It's not true'
Aaron Rodgers would like to clear the air on some gossip surrounding one of his new teammates.
During an appearance on the "Not Just Football with Cam Heyward" podcast, the future Hall of Fame quarterback had some fun with Drew Allar and the alleged "racy" direct messages released in 2025 that were attributed to the new Steelers quarterback, who was selected in the third round of the 2026 draft.
"For those pop culture enthusiasts, there's a DM thread out there about Drew. He definitely wanted me to come on here and say it's not true and that it was it was made up, but it's out there. It's a little racy," Rodgers, 43, said of the messages that went viral last year.
"But he's been in a committed relationship for a long time. And he's very happy. And it's none of that was ever true."
Based on what we can see on Instagram, Allar and girlfriend Emma Bush, who have been a couple since high school, are still going strong. Just last week, Bush posted a sappy couples video on TikTok. "7 years of me and you," she wrote of her relationship with Allar.
These two aren't about to be sidetracked by some internet troll.
"When I heard Drew Allar, [the] first thing I thought was, Oh, that DM thing.' I remember seeing that it went around like the quarterback rooms [because] quarterback rooms are like that like, 'Hey, do you see this kid in college you know these DMs?' I was like 'Oh s–t man,'" Rodgers continued.

You have to give Allar, 22, credit. The rookie passed the test on how to handle himself within an NFL locker room. "One of the first things I said to him was like, 'Hey, the DM thing ever get you in trouble?' You know, especially when he was like, 'Yeah, I've been with, you know, my girlfriend for a long time.' And I was like, 'You got through that DM scandal?'" Rodgers pressed.
How much fun is Rodgers having as his final season begins this week? He told Heyward that this year's Steelers QB room – Rodgers, Mason Rudolph, Will Howard and Allar – is one of his all-time favorites.
7 compression socks to try if you sit or stand all day, according to the experts
Whether you spend long days sitting at a desk, are taking a lengthy flight or, conversely, are on your feet for hours at a time, compression socks may help improve circulation and ease swelling, pain and that heavy feeling in your legs.
We spoke with experts to find out how compression socks work and which brands are worth trying. Sigvaris, Sockwell and Nurse Yard topped their lists for comfort, style and compression strength.
Inactivity, sitting or standing all day can cause blood pooling, which leads to swelling and an uncomfortable, heavy feeling in the legs, explains Dr. Anne Sharkey, a board-certified podiatrist based in Austin, Texas. Compression socks work "by applying external pressure to the lower legs," which helps move blood back to the heart and reduces blood pooling in the legs, feet and ankles, easing aches and fatigue.
"Normally, the muscles in the legs pump and bring back the blood to the heart," Dr. Samantha Landau, professor at Touro New York College of Podiatric Medicine, tells us. With age, genetics, too much pressure on the legs or lack of activity, the valves can weaken. According to Dr. Landau, compression socks help relieve pain and can lower the risk of blood clots.
Most experts noted that the level of compression matters over brand popularity. 15–20 mmHg compression socks offer moderate pressure, making them good for daily use. 20–30 mmHg compression socks give stronger, firmer, more restrictive pressure that experts say may be best for pain management.
Compression socks can benefit people who spend long stretches sitting or standing, including passengers on long flights, flight attendants, nurses and office workers, by helping improve circulation and reduce swelling and pain.
They’re also commonly worn during pregnancy and postpartum to help with swelling. Athletes often use compression socks during or after workouts to support recovery and relieve muscle strain.
The experts also say that patients with chronic leg pain, those who are bedridden and wheelchair users may also benefit from compression socks, depending on their health needs.

The best and most comfortable options for travel, nurses, pregnancy, pain and sports — backed by experts.
Sigvaris' sheer compression socks are particularly recommended for patients with medical conditions. They've "been notably used for those [with] medical complications such as lymphedema, lipedema and ulcers," says Rizwan Tai, a podiatrist and podiatric surgeon at Vital Podiatry in Houston.
Sockwell's compression socks give the look of long dress socks, but are casual enough to wear daily. Tai recommends Sockwell for its stylish design, innovation and health benefits, noting that it suits office workers and travelers for daily use.
Original price: $26.99
Dr. Landau recommends the 20-30mmHg compression socks. She advises against seams and "purchasing socks with design stitches, as this will leave marks on the leg and indentations. Opt for seamless," she says.

Dr. Tonie Reincke, medical director and owner of Reincke Vein Center, recommends Nurse Yard, a brand she's worn herself and suggests to her patients. They come highly recommended for nurses because they eliminate toe pressure and are made of a nylon and spandex blend that's breathable and moisture-wicking.
Original price: $24.99
Dr. Daniel Stewart, DPM, likes this affordable multicolored three-pack, which saw 5,000 purchases on Amazon just in the past month. In Stewart's opinion, "there is no reason to spend extra for a brand-name compression sock. You can get a big pack from Amazon, which will do the job fine."

Vim & Vigr has a huge variety of compression socks that come in fun, colorful patterns, if you want a little life in your socks. Choose from nautical stripes, open-toed solid colors or calf-high floral socks. The brand stands out for the "material choices, size options and a selection of compression strengths (more is not always better here)," Dr. Sharkey tells us.

Dr. Sharkey likes Comrad for its high compression while still looking and feeling like everyday socks. The Comrad four-pack comes with 15-20mmHg compression, making it ideal for everyday use at work, at the gym, while traveling and during pregnancy.

Former Obama aides joke about Trump being stopped by heart disease or old age
Former Obama aides who host the "Pod Save America" podcast appeared to joke on Tuesday about President Donald Trump dying of heart disease or old age.
Co-host and former Obama speechwriter Jon Favreau read questions from their audience, opening with one that asked, "'Is there anyone that can stop this orange piece of s---?!!!’ Three exclamation points. Vanessa from Facebook," referring to Trump. "I just thought I'd put that one first because that's just a tenor of the questions we get from Facebook."
"Iran's doing a pretty good job. So far," Tommy Vietor, another former Obama aide, replied.
"I think the answer is no," Favreau said.
"Heart disease has always got a shot," Vietor quipped. "Father Time will get there eventually."
Jon Lovett, who had been a speechwriter for both Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, observed, "The hardness of the veins sort of gets us all in the end."
"Anyway, you know, it's 2026, almost 2027, so pretty soon we won't be asking that question," Favreau concluded.
"Then what happens?" co-host and former Obama communications director Dan Pfeiffer asked. "We then get real jobs?"
"Probably," Favreau suggested.
MARK HAMILL POSTS PHOTO DEPICTING DEAD TRUMP JUST DAYS AFTER ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT
Theo Wold, a former assistant attorney general and former White House deputy assistant for domestic policy under Trump, told Fox News Digital that the conversation was a grim sign of the times.
"Democrats are increasingly a post-American political movement," he said. "There used to be shared American societal standards that meant speculating publicly on a president’s death was crass and inappropriate, and those are gone now. And in its place is the attitude of anything — even violence — that advances my preferred policies is good. In any event, the president is vigorous and in command of his office, something that couldn’t have been said about President Biden."
"Four men who once worked steps from the Oval Office sat around mics betting on which will claim the sitting president first — heart disease, 'Father Time' or hardened veins — and not one of them had the decency to flinch," Morgan Murphy, a former Pentagon press secretary, told Fox News Digital.
"Favreau admitted the quiet part himself: that's 'just the tenor' of what their audience sends in, which tells you this ghoulishness isn't a slip of the tongue on the Left anymore — it's the signature of today’s Democrats," he continued.
'POD SAVE AMERICA' HOSTS MOCK JD VANCE OVER ‘BLOOD LIBEL’ DEFINITION BEFORE BOTCHING IT THEMSELVES
"Scripture commands us to pray for those in authority — an order issued when Nero held the throne — and Lincoln summoned 'malice toward none' over the graves of 600,000 Americans, but Obama’s hatchet men can't summon it for so much as a podcast," Murphy added.
Mamdani drops massive 9/11 records trove as old claims about Ground Zero come under fire
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani released more than 170,000 pages of records Tuesday that call into question public claims that the air around Ground Zero was safe to breathe following the 9/11 attacks.
Mamdani's office released an initial trove of approximately 170,000 pages of records, including documents found in 68 boxes at the Department of Environmental Protection in 2025 that date back to the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.
The records release comes just days before the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks in which 2,977 people were killed. Thousands of people exposed to the toxic dust and debris after 9/11 have since died from illnesses associated with the attacks, while many more continue to suffer from health conditions, according to the World Trade Center Health Program and other health authorities.
AMERICA’S HEARTLAND COMES FACE-TO-FACE WITH 9/11 HISTORY AS 25TH ANNIVERSARY NEARS
Then-EPA Administrator Christine Todd Whitman said in a Sept. 18, 2001, press release that monitoring results indicated the air near the World Trade Center was safe to breathe, following EPA assurances about environmental hazards dating to Sept. 13.
"People got sick because the leaders they trusted lied and told them they were safe to breathe in toxic air," Mamdani shared during a Tuesday press conference.
The documents revealed that ten months after the terrorist attacks, traces of asbestos were found on the roof of a building located at 15 John Street, less than a mile from where the World Trade Center once stood.
The records show that asbestos was detected at some locations at levels below applicable cleanup or exposure benchmarks and at others at levels that appeared to exceed them; health authorities have said there is no known safe level of asbestos exposure.
Among the approximately 170,000 pages released through the online portal is a Feb. 28, 2002, memo from then-Mayor Michael Bloomberg's senior policy adviser, summarizing Rep. Jerrold Nadler's concerns about indoor air quality in Lower Manhattan and warning that the city could face public-relations and legal problems over the cleanup.
The memo laid out Nadler's concerns that the Environmental Protection Agency had "handed over responsibility for measuring indoor air quality to the City" without putting in place oversight measures. The memo said the city had passed responsibility for indoor monitoring to property owners and noted that the Health Department had instructed residents to clean buildings with wet mops and rags.
"If Nadler’s concerns are justified, we are not Informing people of the real health risks In lower Manhattan, the City may face major public relations problems and Is leaving Itself open to a barrage of lawsuits," the memo, dated Feb. 28, 2002, stated. "At the least we should discontinue telling people to clean their apartments with wet mops and rags. We should be asking FEMA for funds to support Indoor cleanup."
AS AMERICAN PRIDE HITS A 25-YEAR LOW, A NEW 9/11 EDUCATION PLATFORM URGES THE NATION TO NEVER FORGET
Among the clearest evidence of lingering asbestos contamination near Ground Zero was a finding at Stuyvesant High School, where testing later revealed elevated asbestos in auditorium carpeting.
The school, located less than half a mile north of the World Trade Center, recorded what concerned parents described as "extremely high levels of asbestos" in its auditorium during testing in August 2002.
Nearly a year after the attacks, testing of a carpet sample from the school's auditorium using an EPA-recognized ultrasonication method found asbestos concentrations measured at roughly 2.5 million structures per square centimeter.
For comparison, the EPA's Lower Manhattan Test and Clean Program later called for professional cleaning when settled dust exceeded 5,000 asbestos structures per square centimeter. The Stuyvesant sample was roughly 500 times higher than that cleanup benchmark.
I LOST MY WIFE ON 9/11. PLEASE LET THIS 25TH ANNIVERSARY BELONG TO THE FAMILIES
The parents' findings also reached city officials. A copy of the press release announcing the asbestos results was transmitted through the NYC Department of Environmental Protection's Bureau of Public Affairs on Aug. 7, 2002.
In July 2002, more than 10 months after the attacks, the Independence Plaza North Tenant Association (IPNTA) wrote to the EPA arguing the agency's cleanup of two Tribeca residential buildings had not gone far enough, while also urging broader environmental testing."
The work on this project has thus far been done in an unprotected, hence possibly dangerous manner, allowing the dust from the old carpet being torn up to seep into tenants’ apartments, under and around their doors," Diane Lapson, the tenant association's environmental chair, wrote in the letter.
Lapson also criticized what she described as the EPA's and New York City's Department of Environmental Protection's reliance on visual inspections to assess conditions at Independence Plaza's buildings, including 310 Greenwich St. and 80 North Moore St., arguing the agencies should instead conduct more comprehensive testing.
She urged officials to use ultrasonication to more reliably measure the amount of asbestos still in the buildings."
Based on the illnesses that have plagued IPN residents since 9/11 (constant respiratory, sinus, bronchial, skin rashes, eye infections, headaches, etc.), we believe there is a need to do a thorough cleaning of the entire complex.

By September 2002, about two months after Lapson’s letter, the EPA announced that eight contracts had been awarded for asbestos cleanup throughout the downtown area including the ZIP code encompassing Independence Plaza North.
But EPA litigation records show that asbestos contamination remained in some Lower Manhattan apartments months after the cleanup work began.
Lori Mogol and Richard Zimbler, a couple who lived at Independence Plaza North, still had elevated levels of asbestos in their apartment as late as February 2003.
Specifically, their dining room had more than double the EPA’s risk-based clearance level for asbestos, according to tests performed by their assigned contractor.
Karmelo Anthony photographed with guns as docs reveal alleged history of rage, threats and violence
Hours before Karmelo Anthony fatally stabbed Austin Metcalf at a Texas high school track meet on April 2, 2025, his girlfriend reported him to school staff for allegedly stalking her as he texted that he was "on the verge," according to a 75-page court document obtained by Fox News Digital.
That morning, Anthony’s girlfriend, Valeria Torres Perez, told a Centennial High School staff member that Anthony had been driving by her home and refusing to let her end their relationship.
At 12:59 a.m., text messages attributed to Anthony show him writing, "im lowk on the verge." The message does not specify what he meant. He repeated and emphasized it about 35 minutes later.
The document outlines dozens of alleged prior acts prosecutors sought to introduce at trial, including threats, assaults, weapons-related messages and statements about committing robberies. It does not say the messages were about Metcalf or establish that any weapon mentioned in the exchanges was used in the track-meet stabbing.
Prosecutors filed the notice on May 8, 2026, to identify extraneous offenses they intended to use at trial. It is not a judicial finding that the alleged acts occurred, and the notice warns that some screenshots capture only portions of the full exchanges.
KARMELO ANTHONY NEW-TRIAL FIGHT REVEALS MESSAGES ABOUT KNIVES, GUNS THAT MURDER JURY NEVER SAW
The notice reaches back to a Dec. 23, 2023, exchange with Perez, when Anthony described losing control when he became angry.
"When I get mad i see red," he wrote. "When I get mad i blackout," "When I get mad i cant control myself" and "When I get mad my eyes change color."
In that same exchange, Anthony allegedly said he assaulted another person after the individual posted about "smoking" Anthony’s cousin. "He posted where he was at and we pulled up and got em," Anthony wrote.
A May 5, 2024, Instagram photo allegedly showed Anthony holding a firearm while posing with a group.
KARMELO ANTHONY FOUND GUILTY OF MURDER IN TEXAS TRACK MEET STABBING
By May 17, 2024, Anthony had told Perez he was going to shoot a woman, writing, "im shooting her," the notice says. On June 10, 2024, he allegedly threatened to shoot Perez by asking, "how many bullets uu want coming out of ur chest."
Six days later, he allegedly threatened to assault Perez again, writing, "imma beat ur a--."

The threats continued into the fall of 2024. During September, Anthony allegedly made threats involving a gun, writing "gun to the head" and saying he would cut another person’s brakes. By November, he had allegedly written about shooting something up and referred to gloves, a rope and getting his hands on a switch.

The notice says a Nov. 13, 2024, video showed Anthony holding what appears to be a firearm.
WITNESSES IN KARMELO ANTHONY MURDER TRIAL CONFIRM AUSTIN METCALF'S WORDS IMMEDIATELY AFTER ATTACK
A Jan. 4, 2025, video allegedly showed Anthony aiming what appears to be a firearm at a home before running away.
Separate exchanges with other contacts followed. On Feb. 19, 2025, Anthony discussed buying a firearm and an extended clip in a text conversation with Anthony Mendoza. A Feb. 26, 2025, exchange involving a different phone number included a discussion about carrying a firearm.

The notice also says Anthony discussed committing robberies in January 2025 and was suspended for fighting in February 2025.

By March 2025, the messages directed at Perez had grown more threatening. Anthony allegedly texted her on March 8, 2025, "imma f------ murder u … yo friends go die … sho them ts."
The notice says Anthony assaulted Perez on March 14, 2025. Thirteen days later, he allegedly threatened her with a deadly weapon and referenced having a gun.
The document also cites alleged racist and anti-gay messages, discussions about narcotics, photographs and videos involving firearms, and statements about fighting and assaulting other people. It traces alleged misconduct back to Anthony’s school years in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, including "numerous acts of assaultive conduct."
LISTEN TO THE NEW 'CRIME & JUSTICE WITH DONNA ROTUNNO' PODCAST
Anthony was convicted of killing Metcalf and sentenced to 35 years in prison. He has appealed the conviction.
The court document does not provide a formal mental-health diagnosis or establish that Anthony was experiencing a psychiatric crisis before the shooting. Instead, it presents prosecutors’ account of prior conduct they argued could be relevant to the case.
Fox News Digital reached out to Anthony’s attorney, Russell Wilson, for comment.
First regular-season AP Top 25 poll features expected shuffling after shaky Week 1 of college football
The first regular-season AP Top 25 college football poll is here, and you'll never guess what happened.
Some teams fell in the polls, others rose, and a total of five programs remained exactly where they were in the preseason poll. While the Week 1 slate of games around the country didn't necessarily jump off the page, teams were awarded by sending messages (hello, LSU), while others left some voters aggressively scratching their heads (we're looking at you, Michigan).
SEC TEAMS WENT 16-0 IN WEEK 1, IS THE CONFERENCE BACK ON TOP OF COLLEGE FOOTBALL WORLD?
Virginia is the lone team in the poll that was unranked the week prior, but when it comes to the biggest jumpers and fallers, the aforementioned Tigers and Wolverines earned the two respective titles.
LSU embarrassed Clemson 51-10 to begin the Lane Kiffin era in Baton Rouge on Saturday night, moving up three spots from 11th in the preseason poll. As for Michigan, it needed an additional second added to the clock and a Mulligan Hail Mary attempt from quarterback Bryce Underwood to beat Western Michigan 13-12, and as a result, fell out of the poll after entering the week ranked 16th.
Oregon may have passed the stiff test Boise State delivered to the tune of a 34-27 victory, but the unexpected, four-quarter battle with the Broncos led voters to move Oregon down four spots from the preseason No. 2 spot.
Like Oregon, SMU avoided a close call on the road at Florida State on Monday, but moved up two spots to 17th after escaping Tallahassee with a 27-24 win. Washington, however, suffered a similar fate to its Big Ten counterparts in the polls after a sloppy 24-10 win in the Apple Cup over Washington State on Sunday.
In terms of surprises in the Week 1 poll, well ... there aren't any, which is refreshing in this over-reactionary era despite most teams around the country having played just one game.
Michigan still received 69 votes to be ranked after Week 1, while Western Michigan received 12.
HAS NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP PICTURE IN COLLEGE FOOTBALL ALREADY CHANGED AFTER A STUNNING FIRST WEEK?
Georgia Bulldogs place game one highlights behind paywall as post-NIL college football becomes more soulless
I read your comments. I read all of them.
Every time I post an article about college football, I scroll down to the comments section to see what the readers are talking about.
And it doesn't matter if the article is about Dabo Swinney going down with the ship at Clemson or Texas Tech's stiffest competition in the Big 12, the majority of the comments are always the same.

"Who cares? NIL has ruined the sport anyway."
Most of the time, I just roll my eyes and move on with my day.
College football is my favorite sport, and although NIL and unlimited player movement — among other things — has made the sport more of a headache to follow, I will still gleefully park my butt in front of my television on Saturday morning and try to soak up as many games as I can.
This latest development, however, may have me joining the doomsday prophets in the comments section.
The Georgia Bulldogs played a game against an overmatched opponent this past Saturday. It doesn't matter who, because they kicked the crap out of them.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS FINALLY BACK AFTER MONTHS OF NCAA LAWSUITS, NIL DRAMA AND CONGRESSIONAL FIGHTS
After the game, the football team's official X account posted a teaser trailer for their week one highlight film, complete with a link to go see the whole thing.
There was just one problem: the video is behind a $20 paywall.
The worst part is that the link doesn't even take fans to the UGA athletic department's website, but rather a third-party site called Glory Glory.
Glory Glory is described as "a fan-first ecosystem designed to capture and share exclusive content, deliver unparalleled access to UGA athletics, and inspire deeper levels of engagement."
In layman's terms (at least how I understand it), you pay money to this site which then goes towards the players' NIL funds, and in turn, the fans get team-related content and access.
Judging by the comments underneath the video, this is a nearly universally reviled practice, and I can't blame them.
Where does it end?
HERE'S WHY, EVEN WITH ALL ITS PROBLEMS, COLLEGE FOOTBALL IS STILL BETTER THAN THE NFL
We have rev share. We have NIL collectives. We even have places like Tennessee implementing "talent fees" on season tickets that go towards, you guessed it, NIL.
This is all in addition to millionaire and billionaire boosters footing large portions of the NIL bill as it stands.
None of this is sustainable, and it's why places like the federal government have become battlegrounds to try and "save college sports."
No one likes this, yet it will continue to happen.
I can't see myself ever losing my love for college football; I'm too indoctrinated at this point.
I am, what many would call, a "sicko."
But a large portion of fans are already becoming disillusioned with the sport, and it's things like Georgia's paywall tactic that are inflicting the bulk of the damage.
The death of college football may happen by way of "death by 1,000 papercuts," and we are already a couple hundred cuts deep.
Time to stop the bleeding before the greatest sport on earth becomes a husk of its former self, if it isn't already too late.
Burrito-eating record smashed, Elizabeth Holmes doc trailer captivates the nation, fictional dog list debate
Happy Post-Labor Tuesday edition of Nightcaps to you, a real bittersweet day on the ol' "The Far Side" desk calendar, if ever there was one.
It's the symbolic end of summer, but with that comes football (and more importantly, hockey), and what a weekend it was.
But even though Summer '26 is pretty much over, I've saved one summertime ritual for September: a road trip.
My wife and I (plus another passenger I will get into in a moment) will be driving from Orlando, Florida, to Pennsylvania Dutch Country to celebrate my old man retiring after 35 years of service in law enforcement.
Also, there's an Iron Maiden concert nearby, but that was just a very happy coincidence.
I wouldn't miss it for the world, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to still try to save a few bucks.
The original plan was to fly, and it was two things: inconvenient for when we were going and expensive.
15 DOG ESSENTIALS THAT MAKE LATE-SUMMER WALKS AND ROAD TRIPS EASIER
So, I convinced my wife that it would be better to drive over two days.
But I also convinced her that we could save even more cheddar if we brought our French bulldog, Carl, with us.
Now, the numbers check out. I stand by that. I'm also excited to give our newish Ford Bronco Sport a proper long-distance test. However, I'm starting to sweat it a little because if this road trip doesn't go off without a hitch, I will hear about it for the rest of my life.
And I mean, I won't get a break from "...remember how you made us drive to Pennsylvania?" ending any semi-heated discussion until I settle into a pine box for the ol' dirt nap.
I think it'll be good. I've planned it out to avoid traffic in major cities and also to make sure we're on the road so I can listen to F1 practice on the radio (don't tell my wife that part, though).
Hopefully, it's entirely uneventful, and the biggest issue we encounter is a free continental breakfast somewhere in the wilds of North Carolina with a broken waffle iron.
Anyway, enough about my yapping... actually, that's a lie, but we will move on to yapping about other stuff.
I went to see "Coyote vs. Acme" this weekend (which was great), and that meant sitting through about half an hour of trailers, ads, and Nicole Kidman waxing poetic about the magic of movies.
Half an hour before a movie that was only an hour and forty minutes...
Anyway, none of those trailers hold a candle to the one that dropped on Monday for awkward-moment GOAT Nathan Fielder's documentary about disgraced tech leader Elizabeth Holmes, "You Can See Everything."
BOX OFFICE COMEBACK: HOW SUMMER 2026 OFFERS A GLIMMER OF HOPE FOR HOLLYWOOD IN THE POST-COVID ERA
Even if you don't know what it's about, it might make your skin crawl; if you do, it will absolutely make you squirm.
Holmes famously lied a lot about her company Theranos' capabilities and defrauded people out of millions, which landed her in the clink.
So, her staring at Fielder, talking about how she wouldn't deceive him? Yeah, it feels a little like you're looking at a female Hannibal Lecter with a more socially acceptable diet.
The three-hour documentary got rave reviews in its surprise screening, but more importantly, it birthed a slew of memes.
Well, I think I'll have to clear a couple of hours and check that puppy out when it comes out in October.
And if you've never seen "Nathan For You," you probably have a friend who will talk your ear off about it.
I used to be a big Guinness Book of World Records guy when it was all about fat motorcycle twins and people clipping dozens of clothespins to their face, but it's gotten a little ridiculous. Most of the time it's just people doing things that no one ever really thought to do before, and are therefore records.
Like, I could balance a few books on the end of a plunger and — voila! — record.
So, it made me happy to see an old-school-style record courtesy of Great Britain's Leah Shutkever.
That record? Housing a burrito faster than any human being ever has before... when being filmed on camera by the people from Guinness.
Did anyone else just think of some David Attenborough-narrated nature documentary where a python swallows an antelope whole, or was that just me?
What a display, and nice to see the British loosening up a little on the manners front. Tough to be on the forefront of competitive eating if you're more concerned with which fork goes where instead of cramming tortilla, rice, and beans into your food hole.

Congratulations, Leah. We can't wait to see what you gorge yourself on next.
In my humble opinion, one of the greatest bits of the last 35 years is Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.
The brainchild of comedy great Robert Smigel, I can throw on a Triumph bit from "Late Night" that I've already seen dozens of times and laugh hysterically like it's brand new.
It's genius.
However, Triumph may have taken a wrong step, and it was all because of his tier list of TV and movie dogs.
He's No. 1 — which I can live with — but after that, things get wild.
That's a great list... for me and the rest of the internet to poop on!
Wishbone on the same tier as Scrappy-Doo? One is a Jack Russell Terrier who exposed a generation to literary classics, while the other is Scooby's nephew that everyone hates.
And Air Bud in the "Near Great" tier? Did I imagine this, or is he a multi-sport athlete who has bailed out multiple teams over the years?
Those are my gripes; others had theirs.
There are also a few omissions I think we need to include.
First is Muttley of "Wacky Races" fame, who I think needs to go in the average tier. Not a bad sidekick for Dick Dastardly, but could've been near-great had he helped him pull off more evil schemes successfully.
The other one is Tiger from "The Brady Bunch," who was an abject failure.
Do you realize how bad you have to be to get written out of "The Brady Bunch" when they chose to write in Cousin Oliver?
...
That's it for today's edition of Nightcaps! See you tomorrow!
Joe Biden shares health update after prostate cancer diagnosis while issuing warning to others
Former President Joe Biden shared an update on his battle with prostate cancer Tuesday, revealing that radiation treatment he underwent last fall "worked as intended" while urging American men not to delay conversations with their doctors about cancer screening.
Biden, 83, issued the update in a lengthy social media post marking Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, saying the occasion was more personal for him following his diagnosis last year.
"The radiation treatment from last fall worked as intended, and I continue to do the things I care about, like finishing my memoir," Biden wrote.
He also thanked the doctors, nurses and other medical professionals who have treated him, saying their "skill, dedication, and compassion mean so much."
Biden used much of the message to urge men to discuss prostate cancer screening with their doctors, pointing to the dramatically higher survival rate when the disease is detected early.
CANCER TREATMENT DELAYS SURGE ACROSS US AS DOCTOR WARNS SYSTEM ‘NEEDS FIXING IMMEDIATELY’
"Talk to your doctors. Ask the hard questions. Do it for yourself, and do it for the people who love you," Biden wrote.
Biden said men at average risk should begin discussing prostate cancer screening with their doctors around age 50, while Black men and those with a family history should begin those conversations earlier.
SIMPLE SITTING CHANGE LINKED TO LOWER RISK OF CANCER DEATH, STUDY FINDS
The American Cancer Society recommends discussing screening at age 50 for average-risk men, age 45 for Black men and certain men with a family history, and age 40 for some men at even higher risk.
Biden’s office announced in May 2025 that the former president had been diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer that had metastasized to his bones.

The diagnosis came after Biden experienced increasing urinary symptoms and doctors discovered a prostate nodule. His office said at the time that the cancer had a Gleason score of 9, Grade Group 5, but was hormone-sensitive, allowing for effective management.
Biden later underwent radiation therapy and completed that course of treatment last fall.

"It’s my hope and prayer that by sharing our experience and being part of this important conversation, we can help save lives," he wrote. "And no matter what, keep the faith. God bless you."

Additionally, Loughlin requested to "reserve for future determination" for spousal support. The couple married nearly 29 years ago on Nov. 27, 1997.
The "When Calls the Heart" star confirmed separate property in assets and debts per an established prenuptial agreement signed October 1997, and requested a judge determine the rights to community property pursuant to the prenup.
Both parties will be responsible for individual attorney's fees.
"Respondent respectfully requests that, with respect to any issue submitted to the Court for determination, the Court include in the Statement of Decision any and all calculations upon which the determination of any issues made, including but not limited to, spousal support, property characterization, credit and reimbursements, property division, tax consequences and attorneys' fees and costs," documents stated.
They share two adults daughters, Olivia Jade and Bella Rose.
Representatives for Loughlin and Giannulli did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Loughlin confirmed their split in October, with her rep telling Fox News Digital that "Lori and Mossimo are living apart. There are no legal proceedings underway."
Their separation came five years after the couple were entangled in the Operation Varsity Blues scandal, pleading guilty to wire and mail fraud related to paying hundreds of thousands in bribes to get their daughters into the University of Southern California.
Loughlin served nearly three months in prison and Giannulli served five months behind bars. They were released in December 2020 and April 2021.

In a candid interview on the "Good Guys" podcast in October 2025, John Stamos defended Loughlin, calling Mossimo "a terrible narcissist," and her "a saint." He later added that he knows she didn't have much to do with the scandal, saying Mossimo "dragged her through that."

"She goes to f---ing prison for this a--hole for three months, right? And he goes for whatever," Stamos said. "And in typical Lori fashion, I said, ‘How was it?’ She goes, ‘You know, I met a lot of nice ladies in there. We have a book club.'"
He continued, "She didn’t deserve to be dragged through that… I know for a fact it was all him."
