H&H Bagels is doing 'Hamilton'-themed bagels and schmear in honor of musical's 10th anniversary
Starting Friday, July 25, all five H&H locations will offer two limited-time menu specials inspired by the record-breaking musical. First up: the Revolutionary Lemon Poppyseed Cream Cheese, a zesty spread with enough zing to duel a plain schmear into submission. Then there's the Taylor Hamilton Egg & Cheese, a stacked bagel sandwich featuring Taylor Ham, scrambled eggs, American cheese and a kick of hot honey, a tribute to New Jersey's favorite breakfast meat and one of New York's greatest immigrant success stories.
Both items will be available through Sunday, August 17, and the lemon poppyseed schmear will also ship nationwide. Consider it your edible souvenir of the $10 founding father.
H&H, itself a New York institution since 1972, has seen enough drama to warrant its own off-Broadway saga, including bankruptcy battles, late-night closures and a cameo on Seinfeld. But in recent years, the brand has staged a comeback worthy of a standing ovation. With a booming wholesale business, nationwide shipping and aggressive expansion plans (including 25 new locations across the U.S.), H&H is once again riding high.
As for Hamilton, the musical's legacy continues to reshape the Broadway canon and beyond. Since its 2015 debut, it's racked up 11 Tony Awards, a Pulitzer Prize, and legions of fans who can rap the entire Cabinet Battle by heart. This new collab is the perfect celebration of New York, its classics and the joy of a great bagel paired with a cultural phenomenon.
No matter if you're a lifelong Upper West Sider or a tourist on a Broadway pilgrimage, now's the time to rise up and grab a bagel. Just don't throw away your shot—these specials are gone after August 17.

Hulk Hogan was ‘being run into the ground' before he died with work schedule while dealing with 25 surgeries in 10 years
Hulk Hogan admitted he was struggling with his health in the year before his sudden death Thursday and some of those close to him thought he was taking it too far, The Independent has learned. But others close to him said it was just his way, and that he insisted on being on the road and showing up to meet fans because he was 'running the show'. Jimmy VanderLinden — who goes by "Jimmy Van" online and founded the professional wrestling publication Fightful — alleges he spoke with people close to Hogan who were upset at his heavy work schedule. "People close to Hulk Hogan had told me they weren't happy that his management team was 'running him into the ground,' promoting his beer brand over the last year," VanderLinden wrote in a social media post. The 71-year-old wrestler, whose real name was Terry Bollea, had been promoting Real American Beer, which used his likeness for its branding, in the last few months of his life. The company provided The Independent with the following statement: 'Hulk Hogan wasn't being 'run into the ground' — he was running the show. As the co-founder of Real American Beer, this brand was his vision from day one. He led by example, insisted on being on the road and showed up because he wanted to. Not for money. Not for press. For his fans. He built this for them — and no one was going to stop him from showing up and shaking every hand. That's what being a Real American meant to him.' A spokesperson for Empire Agency, which repped Hogan but had no involvement in Real American Beer or its marketing push, told The Independent they also thought he was pushing too hard before he fell ill. 'We also thought that he was going too far with his health, but we couldn't do anything, because of his deal with the promoter and some other representative dealing with this beer business,' the spokesperson said. Rumors swirled on social media in the weeks before his death that Hogan had health issues. Last month, Todd Clem — otherwise known as "Bubba the Love Sponge," a radio show host with a long and sordid history with Hogan — told his listeners that "allegedly Hogan is in the hospital and I've heard people say that he might not make it." Hogan's management and family denied the claims. The wrestler's wife, Sky Daily, said at the time that he'd only undergone neck surgery. His friend, former WWE personality and longtime in-character manager Jimmy Hart, insisted in a post that Hogan had recently been singing karaoke. The post has now been removed. A spokesperson for Hogan told The Independent last week that Hogan's surgery had "indeed been successful" and that there was "no reason to panic." "He just needs from time to time a medical check up," the spokesperson added. But by July, Clem hadn't changed his tune, warning listeners that "I don't know if we'll ever see Hogan again." On July 21, just days before the WWE icon's death, Clem wrote an update on X, citing people close to Hogan, that the wrestler had been moved from a hospital "to his home in a hospital bed with private doctors." "Transfer was done in secrecy — unmarked ambulances, garage entry, middle of the night," Clem wrote. The Clearwater Police Department said during a brief press conference that Hogan was "experiencing a serious medical related issue" when they arrived. He died after he was transferred to a hospital. Hogan addressed his health when he last September appeared on an episode of fellow WWE star Logan Paul's"Impaulsive" podcast. Hogan noted at the top of the show that he'd been up until 3:30 am the night prior, and mentioned he'd only gotten two hours of sleep another night that week. When asked by Paul's co-host, Mike Majlak, if he needs sleep, Hogan says he does, and noted that when he doesn't get enough sleep, it hurts his back. 'Oh God yeah bro, if I don't man, my back and everything..." Hogan says, implying his back will hurt if he doesn't get enough sleep. He then told the men about all of the surgeries he's needed in the last decade. 'I've had like 25 surgeries in the last ten years. Ten of them were back surgeries,' Hogan told Paul. 'Nobody told me this gimmick stuff was fake. I've had 10 back surgeries, both knees and both hips replaced, shoulders — everything.' Hogan was active in professional wrestling across a number of companies from 1977 to 2012. Despite the staged outcomes, the slams and slaps and chair shots were real, and took a toll on his body. He recalled advice he received from the legendary Andre the Giant about protecting his body in his early career. 'Andre used to tell me, 'Boss, don't fall down. You won't get back up,'' Hogan said. 'It was like a 22-foot boxing ring that had lumps in it, boards sticking up—it was horrible.'

A-list Brit star, 31, spotted on secret date with stunning model just weeks after split from Doja Cat
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AFTER splitting from American singer Doja Cat earlier this year, Joseph Quinn – aka the Human Torch – has been busy swiping on dating app Raya. And it seems the hunt for a new flame has landed him a glamorous admirer. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 9 Joseph Quinn was photographed on a night out with model Amelia Zerbe Credit: BackGrid 9 Joe and Amelia Zerbe were at Chateau Marmont in LA Credit: BackGrid 9 Joseph split with singer Doja Cat earlier this year Credit: Getty Joe, whose new film, The Fantastic Four: First Steps, is out now, was photographed on a night out with model Amelia Zerbe at Chateau Marmont in LA. An onlooker told me: 'Joseph and Amelia were really low key and, when they left, they made sure they went separately. 'He went ahead and got into the car before Amelia joined him. 'It seemed like they were on a date, but were keen not for anyone to notice them.' Given how public his romance with Doja was, I'm not surprised Joe is keen to keep things on the low. His life will soon turn completely upside down when he starts filming Sam Mendes' Beatles films. The director will create four films based on the lives of George Harrison, Sir Paul Mccartney, Ringo Starr and John Lennon. Doja Cat calls 17yo Stranger Things star Noah Schnapp a 'snake' and a 'weasel' for exposing private DMs she sent trying to hook up with his co-star Joseph Quinn While Joe is playing George, Paul Mescal will be McCartney, Harris Dickinson is set to portray John and Barry Keoghan has signed up as Ringo. Barry has already spent six months in a Beatles bootcamp learning how to drum like Ringo. And Joe admitted he's also been hard at it for the past month or so. He said: 'We've had five weeks of rehearsal. It's a fascinating process. 'Being around those guys, Paul, Barry and Harris, I think that they are very deeply talented men, thoughtful men, good, hard workers. 'I'm very inspired by them and we're all kind of going through this process together. 'There's more work to be done but I'll get back to it soon.' Joe will return to rehearsals for the Beatles film later this summer, with the four lads expected to start filming at the end of the year. Given how hectic his schedule is, he deserves a medal if he manages to keep a steady girlfriend at the same time. Maybe the Human Torch has a burning desire to make it work . . . 9 Quinn plays The Human Torch in The Fantastic Four: First Steps Credit: AP Bizbit THE brains behind Busted, The Vamps and Mcfly are looking for rising stars to join their roster.

A source said: 'The Oasis reunion is a historic moment in music and these concerts will be talked about for decades to come. 'The band are sounding amazing and they've decided it simply has to be captured as a moment in time. "There will be more singles released before the album drops.' Oasis's only previous live album was Familiar To Millions, which was released in November 2000 after it was recorded at a huge concert at Wembley Stadium in July that year. As a solo artist, Liam has released three live albums – MTV Unplugged (Live At Hull City Hall), Down By The River Thames – which captured his performance on a barge on the river in December 2020 – and Knebworth 22, recording his triumphant return to the site of Oasis's legendary 1996 open- air shows at the Hertfordshire country house. If you've not yet downloaded the live version of Cigarettes & Alcohol, I would highly recommend doing it. And make sure you turn the volume right up. Your neighbours will be sure to love it.
