EFTV - 148: 29 finches of white gold

Who'da thought a Mafia goon would blow seven years on the run, by trying to be a social media cooking star Did Volkswagen play a dumb April's Fool's OR, did a woke gesture fall flat so they quickly pivoted??? If you don't think MSCHF didn't want to get sued by Nike, then you are a step behind. Cause why else would you make them nasty arse trainers Songwriters are hoping to stop bullying by forming a collective and playing pat-a-cake Roger Goodell and the other bigwigs at the NFL have found another way to add to their treasure chests, but will an extra game be good for the players This week's #EFTV looks at all this and more!!!

PLUS, season two of 'Creepshow' hits Shudder on 01.04.21, so we took a look at the first two episodes to see what all the buzz was about.

AND, our Audible of the week, is the conclusion to Octavia E. Butler's 'Xenogenesis' trilogy. What becomes of the human race, can the Oankali help them to not kill themselves, and will a new hybrid Ooloi make the transitions easier or worse. Everything kinda gets answered in 'Imago'.

This week:
