Chris and Ant discuss these topics in Episode 10 of the Chris and Ant Show
Ukraine and Russia: Ukraine and Russia are still at war and it doesn't seem like there is an end in site to the Russian offensive. As tens of thousands of soldiers dying in addition to civilians, this is a bloody war that nobody in the world wants happening right now. Except maybe China, Belarus, and Russia. As Sweden and Finland are expected to make their decision on joining NATO it'll be interesting to see what Vladimir Putin's next move is. As the World waits and watches the war happen in Ukraine, you can only continue to pray and keep the people of Ukraine in your thoughts and prayers. We hope the war is over soon and be safe until it is!
Brooklyn Subway Shooting: Frank R. James has been arrested for the shootings in the Brooklyn subway where he dropped canisters of smoke and started shooting a 9mm pistol randomly through the crowd. Luckily nobody was killed in the shooting with around 10 people getting shot and 20 people getting injured, but stuff like this has to stop happening. It's even more alarming that because of Brooklyn gun laws nobody on the subway was able to protect themselves. Will this incident make New York rethink their gun laws? Hopefully, but probably not.
Derek Carr Get An Extension Of $121.5M w/ The Las Vegas Raiders: Derek Carr is a great quarterback who grabbed his back this offseason by securing an extension for 121.5 million dollars. Some people are saying he is over payed, but when you sit back and look at the NFL's quarter back situation, there is not much upgrading for the Raiders. Because of this, and because Derek Carr is a great QB, we think its the right move for the Raiders. With a few more pieces added to the Raiders they can be a team you will have to look out for. Great job Derek Carr for getting your bag!
XLF Brings Bob Stoops, Hines Ward & Rod Woodson As Head Coaches: The XFL wants to take market share away from the NFL but can they really do it? Their move recent move of bringing Bob Stoops, Hines Ward, and Rod Woodson has head coaches and ambassadors for the league has people thinking it will help but we aren't convinced. The truth is, the top athletes will be playing in the NFL and just like the G league for the NBA... it'll probably get little viewership. Bringing top tier coaches into any league has never brought a huge fan base over and although it was probably a good move, we're not sure its going to make that big of a difference. What do you think?
NBA Play-In Tournament Has Started: The NBA Play-In Tournament is happening and the games have been fun to watch. The Brooklyn Nets secured the 7th seed to meet the #2 seed the Boston Celtics in the first round of the NBA playoffs. In the #9 and #10 seed game in the East the Atlanta Hawks beat the Charlotte Hornets and will move on to play the Cleveland Cavs as Chris predicted. And in the West for the #7 and #8th seed game the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Clippers to send Paul George packing and will face the Memphis Grizzlies in the first round of the playoffs. In the #9 and #10 seed game for the West, the New Orleans Pelicans squared up against the San Antonio Spurs and as Chris predicted again, the Pelicans won with CJ McCollum going off for 32 points. It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the NBA playoffs end up playing out as Chris and Ant give some of the NBA playoff predictions in episode 10. Comment your predictions!

Rogel Aguilera-Mederos a 26 year old truck driver was given a minimum sentence of 110 years in prison for an accidental crash in his semi-truck.
Rogel is getting charged for 4 counts of vehicular homicide and 23 other charges for the accident.
The messed up part of this whole thing is Rogel was driving a semi truck that wasn't his and the brakes malfunctioned, which is what caused the crash.
It seems like part of the reason the court and jury were so hard on him is because there is video evidence showing he passed a run-a-way truck ramp and should of stopped his truck there… but instead he ran into parked traffic.
However, Rogel said he passed the truck stop because he didn't realize his brakes were out.
Since Rogels sentencing, an online petition has been signed by more than 4 millions drivers for the Governor to reduce his sentence and truckers across Colorado plan to boycott driving in Colorado over the sentence.
Now this is obviously a terrible event and you have to feel bad for the people who lost their lives, and those who were injured in the accident.
It’s always terrible news when people pass away unexpectedly especially when it seems like it was an accident but this guy does not deserve 110 years.
4 million people signed the petition for a reason and the reason is because 110 years is cruel and unusual for an accident…
I feel like we have murders and rapist that serve less time than this and this 26 year old was simply working, trying to deliver goods, and his vehicle brakes gave out.
Yes he may have been able to use the run-a-way truck stop and he should have, but still 110 years… cut him some slack on that one.
The long anticipated Matric Resurrections is finally out and it seems like this movie is going to be one for the record books.
As the Matrix’s that came before this one, Resurrections looks very promising and it will be awesome to see how they continue on with the storyline.
We can honestly say we haven’t been this excited to watch a movie in a long time and we are sure it’ll be action packed.
Do you think this Matrix will be better than the first one?
As only 1 of the Original directors took part in this movie, is it going to feel completely different or are they going to be able to make it feel like the other Matrix’s?
With all the time, build up, and focus that seems like was put into this, I think it will be the best Matrix yet.
With better CGI this new Matrix should be sweet and we can’t wait to see it… Comment your thoughts about the movie if you've seen it!
“Baby Yingliang” is a very well preserved fossilized dinosaur egg that was discovered in China.
They’re saying the way the dinosaur was laying in the egg resembles a lot of how birds lay in their eggs.
Because of this it goes to show how modern day birds were related to the dinosaurs and even have similarities.
It’s wild to think about the universe and all the different things the Earth has been through and dinosaurs have always been an interesting topic.
Chris kept thinking when he saw this headline that someone would be able to pull off some Jurassic Park stuff and pull some DNA from the fossilized dinosaur egg but obviously that is just him living in Hollywood.
What do you think, would it be cool if somehow we were able to create dinosaurs again like in Jurassic Park or do you think that would be a stupid idea?
Chris used to think it would be a good idea until he took his daughter to a dinosaur event where they had dinosaur replicas and them things were huge.
It made him double think about wanting to re-create dinosaurs as we would probably be trying to stop large dinos from eating us all the time… we'll stick to fossils and dinosaur events.
Keanu Reeves is one of the most beloved actors in Hollywood and Keanu and Kevin Feige have confirmed that they have been in talks about Keanu joining the MCU for a long time now.
The hold up really has been that they haven’t found the right project or timing to get Keanu in the MCU and time will tell if it happens or not.
Both Keanu and Kevin seem like it will happen eventually but there is no guarantees on a time table or if it will ever even happen.
My question to you is, who should Keanu play from the MCU?
I’ve seen things across the internet saying that Keanu might play someone like Adam Warlock or Gambit but again nothing has been confirmed.
I think Adam Warlock would be a perfect character for Keanu as Adam Warlock is a badass just like Keanu.
If Keanu chooses to play some corny MCU character I am going to be salty because he deserves to be one of the most bad ass super heroes in the whole MCU.
It’s NEO, I mean come on, how can NEO not get a bad ass character roll in the MCU… lets make this happen guys as everyone is ready to see Keanu as a superhero.
Sean Puff Daddy Combs is buying back his Sean John Brand for 7.5 million from Global Brands Group.
Sean Combs says he wanted to buy Sean John back because streetwear is making a nice comeback in fashion and he is ready to put together a team and write the next chapter in Sean Johns legacy.
We never really loved Sean John clothes to be honest, but we're curious to see how their fashion looks with P-Diddy taking back over the brand.
I remember back in the day people rocking the Sean John track suits and baggy clothes, but it was never a huge hit for me.
Our guess is the brand will be similar in the sense of baggy streetwear that is tailored to modern day fashion, kind of like how Kanye has done with the Yeezy line.
What do you think the Sean John brand of the future going to look like? Comment your thoughts.
In Episode #8 of the Chris and Ant Show we will talk about:
- A Colorado Truck Driver Was Sentenced To 110 Years For An Accidental Crash, Did He Deserve This Sentence?
- Matrix Resurrections, Will It Be The Best Matrix Yet?
- Fossilized Dinosaur Embryo named "Baby Yingliang" Was Found In China But Is it Real or Fake?
- Sean Combs Buys Back Sean John From Global Brand Group For 7.5 Million But Was It A Good Move?
- Keanu Reeves And Kevin Feige Confirm Talks Of Keanu Joining The MCU But Who Would He Play?
Rogel Aguilera-Mederos, a 26 year old truck driver was given a 110 year prison sentence for an accidental crash he caused in his semi truck. Rogel says that while he was driving his semi his brakes went out without him knowing it.
Because of this brake malfunction, Rogel ran into parked traffic and killing 4 people and injuring others.
This is obviously a terrible accident but does Rogel deserve 110 years for a traffic accident when there are probably murders and rapist who have served less time than he is looking to face? Comment your thoughts.
The Matrix Resurrections just hit HBO max and it seems like its going to be a big hit.
With NEO and Trinity making a return to the Matrix, we're excited to see how they continue with the story line.
As huge Matrix fans we're stoked for the arrival of Matrix Resurrections and can't wait to watch it.
A fossilized and well preserved dinosaur egg they're calling, "Baby Yingliang" was found in China and it was a rare find.
This fossil was so well preserved that they could tell how they dinosaur was laying inside of the egg and they say it was very similar to that of a modern day bird.
As this is awesome info which connects modern birds to dinosaurs, it is always fun to see new fossils that help us learn more about the dinosaurs.
What do you think about Baby Yingliang?
Sean Combs is buying back the Sean John Brand from Global Brands Group for 7.5 million and plans to turn it into a new and modern day fashion company.
Sean Puff Daddy Combs mentioned that he say streetwear making a comeback and that he wanted to reinvent Sean John and create a new legacy for the brand so it'll be exciting to see what he does with it.
Will he create a brand like Yeezy or will he try something new and fresh?
Comment your thoughts on the new Sean John brand.
Keanu Reeves and Kevin Feige confirmed they've been in talks to get Keanu in the MCU but they are not sure what character he will play or if he will ever play one.
Keanu wants to join the MCU but the timing and character selection just hasn't played out in Keanu's favor.
As Keanu is a Hollywood favorite, it would make sense to bring him into the MCU but what character should he play?
Some say he will play Adam Warlock, possibly Wolverine, or maybe even Gambit but what are your thoughts?
Who should Keanu Reeves play in the MUC? Comment below.
