Today, the guys discuss entertainment they consumed in the summer of 2024 (2:31). Asif goes first by discussing his disappointment with season 3 of ‘The Bear’, and similarities to ‘House of the Dragon’, ‘The Boys’ and ‘Ted Lasso’ Season 3. He then discusses ‘Time Bandits’, ‘Deadpool and Wolverine’ and ‘Love Lies Bleeding’. Asif concludes by discussing a news article about a recent apology from MMA star Ronda Roussey. Ali talks about what he watched when recovering from hernia surgery including ‘Chef’, ‘Hacks’ and the somewhat controversial 1994 movie ‘Leon The Professional’. He then talks about his hate for the series ‘Love’, Sebastian Maniscalco’s ‘Bookie’ and re-watching stand up specials.
Then Ali asks Asif about ‘The Yips’ aka task specific dystonia (32:59). Asif talks about the history of the disease in golf as well as other sports and music. He discusses how common it is and the theory of why it develops in certain people. Asif describes how some affected people can overcome the dystonia using sensory tricks (“geste antagoniste”). He then talks about the treatment and how botulinum toxin is often used.
