Chris Paul Hints at Retirement After 2025-26 NBA Season
Summary One of theNBA's most celebrated point guards,Chris Paul, has indicated that the upcoming 2025-26 NBA season will likely be his last, signaling the close of a remarkable 20-year career. The 40-year-old future Hall of Famer, known as the 'Point God,' made the revelation during a recent interview, expressing a desire to prioritize family after two decades in professional basketball. Paul, who recently completed his 20th season in the league, stated simply, 'At the most, a year. You know I just finished my 20th season, which is a blessing in itself,' when asked about how many years he will still be playing at the highest level during a recentinterview. This direct response underscores a profound personal shift, as he reflected on the significant time spent away from his children and family. 'These years you do not get back with your kids, with your family,' he shared, emphasizing that his loved ones now weigh more heavily in his decision-making than his passion for playing. Despite his age, Paul showcased his enduring capability in the 2024-25 season, starting all 82 games for the San Antonio Spurs and contributing significantly as a mentor to young talents like Victor Wembanyama. Throughout his storied career, Paul has achieved nearly every major individual accolade, including 12 All-Star selections, 11 All-NBA nods, five assist titles, and six steals titles, ranking second all-time in both categories. The one major piece of hardware that has eluded him, an NBA championship, is likely a driving force behind playing one more season, though it remains unknown where he will sign as a free agent. Chris Paul hints at this upcoming season being the last of his career 🥲 — Underdog (@Underdog)July 6, 2025

Ryan Reynolds takes you on a hilarious journey with 'Underdogs': meet nature's quirkiest stars
"Underdog" spotlights the unique and unpredictable behaviours of a cast of little-known animal characters in the natural world. The new Disney+ series "Underdogs," narrated by " Deadpool " actor Reynolds, takes a refreshing step back, opting to shine a light on the lesser-known and often quirky creatures of the animal kingdom. Step aside, Sir David Attenborough , because Ryan Reynolds is taking over. The five-part series from National Geographic celebrates the unsung heroes that are often left out of traditional nature documentaries and showcases their unique abilities, habits, "terrible parenting" strategies and at times, the downright gross aspects of the animal world. The first episode homes in on a set of animals Reynold's dubs the "Superzeros", a group of creatures from around the world with unique and fascinating "superpowers" that help them survive in the wild. Reynolds kicks off the global journey with the velvet worm, which launches a special adhesive at predators to trap them in their place. From there, viewers will get to learn about the nearly indestructible honey badger, the elusive glass frog, the echolocating Madagascar lemur, the unstoppable snapping pistol shrimp, the limb regenerating axolotl and the dopamine-inducing jewel wasp. Other episodes are aptly subtitled "Total Grossout", "The Unusual Suspects", "Sexy Beasts" and "Terrible Parenting", each with wildlife that fits the profile. While the animals are all-around fascinating to learn about, it is Reynolds's signature wit and humour that's a major draw.

In L.A., The Future Is Bolder, Tastier, and More Welcoming
When Danny Feldman took over Pasadena Playhouse in 2016, the historic theater near Los Angeles was on life support, emerging from bankruptcy but unable to fund a full season. Yet Feldman sensed an opportunity to spur change. 'When you're in those moments of vulnerability, there's a certain freedom,' he says. 'You might as well shoot for the stars and dream big.' Pasadena Playhouse's precarious financial position, he knew, was not entirely unusual. Across the country, regional theaters are staging fewer shows, scheduling fewer performances, and laying off staff. For Feldman, a Los Angeles native who previously led L.A.'s Reprise Theatre Company and New York's Labyrinth Theater Company, addressing this systemic challenge meant answering a universal, fundamental question: How do you make theater matter in the 21st century? 'My experience with theater in general—and this includes Broadway as well as regional theaters all over the country—is that we've lost our way. I think in many ways, we've become elitist,' he says. To ensure a future for Pasadena Playhouse, and to point the way forward for regional theater nationwide, Feldman knew he had to make theater as accessible and appealing to as many people as possible. To do that, he started by lowering the barrier to entry, offering $35 rush tickets, free shows for K–12 students, and an expanded roster of public access programs. He made sure that the theater's programming reflected a diversity of voices and styles, staging everything from experimental comedy (Kate Berlant's one-woman show, Kate) to revivals of classics (Suzan-Lori Parks' Topdog/Underdog). He also worked to transform the Playhouse into a flexible space, ripping out seats on multiple occasions for experimental formats and fostering a party atmosphere to attract different audiences, particularly younger ones. 'We make theater for everyone. And what that means in practice is that we want everything—the stories we tell, the people we have in our seats, and the artists on our stage—to represent the full spectrum,' he says. It was a fitting approach for a theater with a history of invention. Founded at the urging of community members in 1917, Pasadena Playhouse became a cradle of innovation: It launched one of the United States' first acting schools, premiered works by Tennessee Williams, and hosted a star-studded list of other playwrights and performers, from Eugene O'Neill to George Bernard Shaw and Martha Graham. 'We challenge assumptions here. It's in our DNA,' Feldman says. 'We don't just do things the way other people do things. We stop and say, 'What are we trying to do here? What's the assignment?' And that often leads to risk-taking.'
