YouTube’s Emmy Breakthrough: ‘What We Do Is Not Webbys’ – The Ankler

There are many reasons Kareem Rahma is happy about his first-ever Emmy nomination, and why he and his SubwayTakes executive producer, Andrew Kuo, were drinking afternoon martinis when I caught them on the phone last week, a few hours after the nominations were announced. It’s the first nomination for a YouTube original series since the tech giant started aggressively pushing its shows for Emmys last year, a moment that Rahma called “a milestone for the entire creator community” in his official reaction statement. It’s also, very importantly for Rahma, not yet another Webby.  “What we do is not Webbys,” says Rahma, who has been nominated for three of the internet-focused awards. “It’s entertainment; it’s television. I want to be recognized by the right people.”  Alongside political song parodist Randy Rainbow, whose show has now been nominated six times in the short-form categories, Rahma is part of what feels like a slow-moving sea change at the Emmys, where entirely independent shows born on YouTube will become increasingly competitive with traditional Hollywood productions. Sure, Hot Ones and Royal Court didn’t manage to break through in the best variety series category, and many of the short-form nominees are still spinoffs from network-produced shows

Homeless World Cup: How a ‘beautiful game’ is changing lives across the globe

By SHAWN HENDRICKS, The Baptist Paper As the 2026 FIFA World Cup draws to a close, with the final match scheduled for July 19, many soccer fans may be interested in following another World Cup coming up soon in Mexico City. Celebrating its 21st year of competition, the Homeless World Cup will (literally) kick off Jan. 17–23. Yes, it’s a real event held in partnership with FIFA — and organizers will quickly tell you that it is changing, and has changed, many lives. International network “Since 2003, we’ve supported over 1.7 million people to rebuild their lives through football,” the group’s website says. “Across our global network of 75 Member Countries, players move forward into employment, education and stable housing.” In 2024, Netflix released globally the movie “The Beautiful Game,” which shares a fictional account of a team from England that competes in the real-life annual event. The idea for the soccer tournament came from co-founders Mel Young and Harald Schmied. The two were reportedly inspired to launch the idea after attending a conference on homelessness in 2001. As a result, the first event was held in Graz, Austria, in 2003 and hosted 18 teams. Since then, the event has

Fantasy Baseball SP Roundup 7/11: I Pfaadt I Saw A Dodgers Cap | Pitcher List

Welcome to the SP Roundup, my daily fantasy baseball article reviewing every starting pitcher’s performance from every Saturday game. I apologize for the jokes written in my delirium in advance. Have questions? Ask me during my office hours on Twitch.tv weekday mornings from 10 am-12 pm ET.   Brandon Pfaadt (ARI) @ LAD (W) – 5.1 IP, 2 ER, 6 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 7 Whiffs, 23% CSW, 77 pitches. Facing a tough offense is a tall task. Facing a reigning World Series champion offense is even tougher. Facing a back-to-back reigning World Series champion offense is as tough as it gets. Brandon Pfaadt was tasked with a start in Hollywood – a true David vs Goliath matchup – and lived to tell the tale of his legend, tossing 5.1 IP, 2 ER, 6 Hits, 0 BBs, 2 Ks – 7 Whiffs, 23% CSW, 77 pitches (W). He nearly supplemented his win even further, allowing both of his runs in the sixth inning (Careful, Icarus), as he allowed just two baserunners through the first five frames. An impressive outing for a pitcher who’s spent most of the season in the bullpen or the minor leagues. Pfaadt has long

In Yankees clubhouse, vibes are high at All-Star break, but they need good Aaron Judge news

WASHINGTON — New York Yankees players held cans of beer in one hand as they packed their luggage with the other. The visitors clubhouse inside Nationals Park is spacious, but blaring 2010s nightclub music filled every corner — think Pitbull and Ne-Yo. The vibes were high for the Yankees, especially with the All-Star break officially here. They were even better thanks to a come-from-behind 5-3 win over the Washington Nationals on Sunday, giving the Yankees a four-game winning streak after they looked lost, limp and lifeless less than a week ago. “Nothing is better than a comeback win,” first baseman Ben Rice said. He was grinning from ear to ear. “There’s a lot of outside noise,” starting pitcher Will Warren said, “but collectively as a group in here, I feel like we’re in a good spot.” He was standing in front of his locker, cool and calm. “Look,” manager Aaron Boone said, “we talk about it all the time: There are going to be highs and lows.” He was reclining in a chair in the manager’s office.  » Read More
