Wanted to post all of the playlist I created for the cast.
If you have any suggestions for additions, changes or the like, please feel free to make them know. I consider my own taste in music limited, and some characters playlists are on the short side because of that.
Iβm aware that some songs are shared across multiple playlists, that is intended. Thereβs generally a reason for that.

This is the funniest email I have ever received from a professor
Here are a few of my thoughts about our duo:
Landoβs self criticism isnβt petulant and defeatedβitβs aching, full of intent, and a desire to deliver. He understands his mistakes and shoulders responsibility, all while continuing to show up with openness and honesty. Itβs grit and resilience. A championship mentality.
Oscarβs natural stoicism does not lack passion and intensity. It shows a relentless pursuit of excellence under pressure and a quiet confidence that is never rooted in arrogance. He bounces back quickly, not because heβs cold, but because heβs passionate. A championship mentality.
They are different. Complementary. A championship won by either one of them will look differently. I stand by them both. I believe in them both.
Whenever I take a long car ride I end up exhausted afterwards, and Iβm always like βwhy am I so tired? I was just sitting around doing nothing all day.β
But the answer, it turns out, is I was doing something. Riding in a car jars your body in many directions and requires constant microadjustments of your muscles just to stay in place and hold your normal posture. Because youβre inside the car, inside the situation, itβs easy not to notice all the extra work youβre doing just to maintain the status quo.
Thereβs all sorts of type of work that we think of as βfreeβ that require spending energy: concentrating, making decisions, managing anxiety, maintaining hypervigilance in an unfriendly environment, dealing with stereotype threat, processing a lot of sensory input, repairing skin cells damaged sun exposure, trying to stay warm in a cold room.
The next time you think youβre tired from βnothingβ, consider instead that youβre probably in situation where youβre doing a lot of unnoticed extra work just to stay in place.
