At The Water Cooler:

What we’ve been Doing:

- Hoai-Tran is out of quarantine!
- Chris released another episode of 21st Century Spielberg.
What we’ve been Reading:
- Chris read The Men Who Would Be King.
What we’ve been Watching:
- Chris and Ben watched Capone.
- Peter and Brad saw Josh Gad’s Back to the Future reunion on YouTube.
- Peter started watching Dave, and watched the Survivor finale with friends over FaceTime.
- Brad watched The Perfection, Coffee & Kareem, The Wrong Missy, Solar Opposites, rewatched The Cable Guy, Not Another Teen Movie
- Jacob watched Bad Times at the El Royale, Z, Cursed Films, The Hoarder, Paranormal Activity 3, and Where the Heart Is. He also finally finished The Outsider.
