Let’s Talk Sports with Kevin Drake
Our sports contributor Kevin Drake joins Just Talking for our Let’s Talk Sports segment. What’s sports world been talking about? Let’s start with Super Bowl, The two best teams for most of the NFL season, this will be a battle between more than just two top teams. It will be a matchup of two top quarterbacks and two of the best at their positions in Jason Kelce for the Eagles and Travis Kelce for the Chiefs – Philadelphia Eagles.com. LeBron James has done it. With a fallaway 15-footer in the final seconds of the third quarter against the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder, James passed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to become the NBA's all-time leading scorer on Tuesday night – CBS Sports Rodgers at Pebble Beach Pro-Am: “The predominant team that we hear as we’re walking is Raiders” – CBS Sports. Plus so much more!
STRIKE A CHORD
Los Angeles Rockers Londynne’s Falling joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss their new single “911.” It’s always interesting to hear a band's origin story. How did it begin? Who likes cake and ice cream? AND as long as we’re in a pandemic isolated from society let’s form a band! “911” instantly gives you Fail Out Boy vibes. The music video takes you back to high school teen angst, finding yourself, getting frustrated when definition doesn’t match description. Lead singer Londynne hints there’s a full album waiting for release—BUT why hold back? Is this a rock band fetish to get song fans desperate for another track? OR do fans want to be tickled, teased, given dribbles of singles rather than albums? To AI or not to AI? That is the song writer’s question! Artificial Intelligence (AI) is here to stay. However, just because an AI can write a song doesn’t mean we should let an AI write a song. Are we scared the AI will do a better job? Guitarist Jacobi.e says, “isn’t this just using a thesaurus to write a chorus?” If you get into trouble, CALL 911—BUT if you’re looking for a new millennial pop rock band CALL Londynne’s Falling.
