What might happen if Steph Curry started his childhood basketball career alongside a true phenom whose life was ruined by decisions he had no part in making…and then that guy came back into his life as a chronic, desperate liar? This is the premise explored in Peacock’s new mockumentary Mr. Throwback; we tell you all about it. After Sarah picks the winner for her own Ask Ask EHG question about renaming diseases 19th-century style, we move on to YOUR latest queries on subjects ranging from the Muppets we’d like to impersonate online for a day to TV-inspired tweaks to the pentathlon. We name the week’s Not Quite Winners and Losers; then we welcome in our Grandpas for an Extra Credit on TV’s Important Pointy Things. Stretch out your hammies and join us!
