The Blues Brothers turns 46 today, and the behind-the-scenes stories are legendary. Cars dropped from hundreds of feet over Chicago. Malls wrecked. Belushi crashing at a stranger’s house. Just another day at the office for Jake & Elwood. A behind-the-scenes Sting Cut.

I am begging the internet to stop showing me "5-to-9 morning routines" where someone drinks structured water, journals for an hour, and ice plunges before sunrise. My morning routine is hitting snooze until the fear of homelessness physically drags me out of bed. That’s it. That’s the routine.

Read more about Ney during Waterloo campaign in my book published by @HolandPress Available on Amazon in kindle and in paperback.
On this day in 1815, the Duke of Wellington's Anglo-Allied army fights the French under Marshal Ney to a standstill at Quatre Bras. Just 10 miles to the east, Blücher's Prussians are taking a beating from Napoleon at Ligny. Two days later, all the armies will meet at Waterloo.

Happy Birthday, America 🇺🇸! Nothing is more American than apple pie 🥧. This has been a tough secret to keep as I’ve been after this for 5 years. Today starts the rollout period (soft sale) for our OG Fried Apple Pie. It’s not on the app/kiosk but is on our registers. It will appear on the app/kiosk on June 22 - the date all stores must sell by. Last night I got an Apple Pie à la mode and it was absolutely divine (just order a plain or caramel sundae fried pie) 🤤. It’s been gone since 1992 but it was just as I remembered. They are only back for a limited time, so be sure to snag one soon. Be vocal on social if you want them to stay! 🙏 Tag me with your review. Who’s getting one today?
Still not sure why we don’t do a fried pie LTO nationwide. It would be a huge promo. We have the supply/recipes on hand, a few markets including Hawaii still have it.

Cubs' Pete Crow-Armstrong was asked about how he processes moments like tonight at Wrigley - 38,000 fans chanting his name, getting picked off and having a big AB late. What follows is one of the coolest answers I've heard from a pro athlete - on pressure and the mental game:

I like this version better! 😎⚜️🏆 (Part of Superbowl XLIV pregame hype video night before game)
ROCKY II was released 47 years ago today. Bill Conti’s “Gonna Fly Now” became so popular that it reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Few movie themes have become as inseparable from a character as Rocky’s iconic training anthem.

#OnThisDay June 14, 1800 & 1807 - Two of Napoleon's greatest victories were fought on this day. At Marengo (1800), Napoleon turned near-defeat into triumph when General Desaix's timely arrival shattered the Austrian army, securing French control of northern Italy and strengthening Napoleon's hold on power. Seven years later at Friedland (1807), Napoleon decisively defeated the Russian army, paving the way for the Treaty of Tilsit and the height of French influence in Europe. From the dramatic reversal at Marengo to the crushing victory at Friedland, June 14 stands as one of the most significant dates in Napoleonic military history. #napoleonicwars #marengo #Friedland #militaryhistory #historyfacts

One thing I’ll say about the UFC event at the White House is that if Trump and the Justice Department are going to criticize the NFL for placing some of its games behind a paywall, the UFC should have been forced to put this on broadcast TV so that everyone can watch it for free.

Ford CEO Jim Farley says people should not be able to work on their own cars and make person repairs He says it’s just too complicated and you could “get hurt” Ford makes over $50 billion dollars per year from their service and repair departments. Thats the real reason they design vehicles so complicated you can’t repair them on your own and need special equipment
