The Pi Brew
We’re back with an all new Brew. NBA free agency is upon us. Will the 76ers make a splash? The January 6th hearings continue to show what most sane people already know and that’s that Donald Trump is a waste of semen. John Cena returned to RAW. Megan Fox has a new look. We have a lot to get to as usual, so let’s do this! It’s Brew time.
