This season on 'Deli Boys,' the Dars are drowning in dirty cash and Philly's sketchiest crooks are circling. Enter Max Sugar: casino king, money launderer, and Lucky's new crush who turns laundering into a chaotic situationship.
It's kind of a little local community hang spot as much as it is a retail store. You could buy analog cameras or photo books at the shop. If you're like me, you could browse in order to motivate yourself to dig your old film camera out of the closet. Or you could just hang out, talk art, and make friends.
Dhar Mann's morality tales about Karens getting exposed, kids with disabilities finding acceptance, and the like have made him one of the internet's most popular creators. He also stands out in a mostly unscripted world for his focus on scripted content, including a recent micro-drama production deal with Fox.

Michael has become a must-follow voice in queer comedy thanks to his sharp observations, deeply relatable videos, and his ability to capture the messiness, humor, and contradictions of gay culture.

At the box office earlier this month, four out of the five top-grossing movies were not from big companies. There was Solo Mio, an inspirational romantic drama starring Kevin James from the faith-based distributor Angel Studios; a filmed concert from the K-pop group Stray Kids; and a French adaptation of Dracula from the director Luc Besson that had already made big money overseas.
Davidson's debut episode, featuring Machine Gun Kelly, is assembled from the rough, requisite symbols of podcasting: host and guest sunk into plush, beat-up chairs vaguely facing each other, chatting and smoking cigarettes in a space that's presented as Davidson's garage, Benjamin Moore paint tubs doubling as an ashtray stand.
