The Scoop for June 1, 2020

I’m not gonna lie, I’m a pretty big nerd, but you know that already. And this, this was pretty awesome on Saturday…
The SpaceX launch happened and now the astronauts arrived at the Space Station. Nerd or not, the fact that we just shot two dudes into space on a private rocket, pretty awesome. And, it’s Bob and Doug, so yeah. Take Off eh?


So we know there were protests, basically everywhere yesterday. And yes, some celebs made their way out to show support or just to document. And Chicago native John Cusack was trying to film a burning car, and the police didn’t appreciate that.
The cops even beat up John’s bike with their batons. I mean, come on. It’s a bike. Not cool. I mean, it’s better than beating up a human, but still.

WARNING: There’s at least one really loud swear in there. Don’t watch with the sound on if you don’t want to hear that kind of talk.
