-So, this show came out a couple of months ago, but I started watching Godless on Netflix & it’s DOPE. Netflix really dropped the ball on not making people aware that Jeff Daniels was the villain in this show. He’s excellent.

-Speaking of Netflix, the third and final season of Judd Apatow’s show Love came out and I am going to miss it. The best way to describe Love is this: it’s like being with the characters of Judd Apatow movies when the cameras aren’t rolling. It’s a cute show and super consumable.

Sports
-The Cleveland Browns went nuts over the weekend, trading for Tyrod Taylor, Jarvis Landry, Damarious Randall, while also shipping out relative-bust Danny Shelton. Don’t forget, the Browns still own the first and fourth picks in the NFL draft.

-The UMass student newspaper published a frankly preposterous article about fraternities:
