A History of the Star Wars Holiday Special
The Star Wars universe wasn't always a universe. In 1978, it was a really popular movie — and George Lucas wanted to keep it that way. That was the rationale behind handing CBS the rights to make a Star Wars Holiday Special, which quickly became one of the worst TV airings of all time.

Nike Waffle Racer 26
Born from a waffle iron experiment by Bill Bowerman, Nike's Waffle Racer returns with updated materials and a modern build. Originally released as the "Moon Shoe," the silhouette keeps its low-profile, track-inspired design while swapping in knit and suede uppers across new 2026 colorways. A foam midsole adds everyday comfort, while the signature waffle outsole delivers the same traction that defined the original. The result is a retro runner that balances heritage design with easy wearability.

Weed, Money, and the 1979 24 Hours of LeMans

Rumors of the brothers pot smuggling and paying off officials are nearly canon, from LeMans to NASCAR to the Indianapolis 500. John Ficarra tells the story of the time the Whittington brothers went racing.
