Weekend Whats

What to Doc: “The Contestant is the incredible true story of a man who lived for 15 months trapped inside a small room, naked, starving and alone… and completely unaware that his life was being broadcast on national TV in Japan, to over 15 million viewers a week.” The Contestant on Hulu includes two earthquakes, a tsunami, and an avalanche, and yet the behavior of humans is the most dangerous and upsetting thing you’ll see. Still, it’s also somehow heart warming. In an era of terrible reality TV, this could have been the worst example of them all. (Bonus: you’ll earn how the eggplant emoji came to prominence.)

+ What to Peel With: I’m willing to admit when I’m wrong. Not about politics, cultural issues, or current events. But peelers. I have touted the Oxo peeler in the past. I reader emailed in that I should try another model. And I’m here to tell you, the Victorinox Stainless Steel “Swiss Classic” Universal Peeler, Serrated/Wavy Edge is the greatest peeler I’ve used. And I peel a lot. Basically, if I’m not doing NextDraft, I’m peeling.

+ What to Wear: A reminder that we have some killer new t-shirts, hoodies, and other gear in the NextDraft store to go along with some of the all time bestsellers.
