'Las Culturistas With Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang' Is on The 100 Best Podcasts of All Time
Comedy and Fiction Listening to Las Culturistas, hosted by longtime BFFs Matt Rogers and Bowen Yang, is like hanging out with your hippest, most hilarious, most in-the-know friends who also happen to have a direct line to your favorite celebrities. In the nine years since launching the show, Rogers and Yang have discussed the joy of making music with Lady Gaga, gay lakes with Cole Escola, and bad veneers with Chappell Roan. Each episode ends with them holding space for their guests to air their grievances in a recurring segment called 'I Don't Think So, Honey,' in which the likes of Charli XCX, Mike Birbiglia, and Mariah Carey are given 60 seconds to rant about their personal bugaboos. (They are also the hosts of their own annual over-the-top send-up of awards shows where, in 2023, the Cate Blanchett Award for Good Acting went to, well, Cate Blanchett, who sent in a brilliantly performed pretaped acceptance speech.) The duo also share their brutally honest takes on pop culture, current events, and their own personal lives. Though, as Tina Fey warned them last year, as the pair's popularity grows outside of the pod thanks to turns in popular movies like Wicked (Yang) and TV shows such as SNL (Yang, again) and Overcompensating (both Rogers and Yang), they may want to start keeping some of their opinions to themselves. Lucky for us, they have not totally reined it in just yet. Of course, Las Culturista fans, better known as 'Readers,' would expect nothing less than pure unadulterated chaos from Rogers and Yang, who have always preferred to serve their tea piping hot.

Celtic star Yang to seal EFL Championship move as Hoops clear decks by letting THIRD winger leave with Jota injured
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CELTIC continue to make room for squad improvements this summer with Yang the latest fringe man poised to leave the club. The South Korean winger has been pictured wearing a Norwich City strip this evening and SunSport understands that an initial loan deal to the East Anglia side is set to go through imminently. Sign up for the Celtic newsletter Sign up 3 Yang celebrates his goal against Newcastle Credit: Kenny Ramsay 3 Yang has been spotted in the colours of Norwich City We told you last week how Norwich were a likely destination for the player. He'll follow Nicolas Kuhn, who joined Como on a permanent deal this summer, and Luis Palma, who's on the move to Lech Poznan on loan, on the way out of Parkhead this summer. He'll also likely be joined going out the exit door by another winger in the form of Aussie star Marco Tilio, who has been strongly linked with a move to Rapid Vienna - while big money recruit Jota is out injured for several months. Yang, 23, moved to Celtic two years ago in a £2million deal from Gangwon in his homeland. He appeared 34 times across all competitions last season, just nine of those were league starts. In total, Yang has featured 65 times for the Hoops and scored seven goals. Brendan Rodgers has added Benjamin Nygren but is still hoping to add to his wide options this transfer window. Antwerp's Michel-Ange Balikwisha has been a long term target and the departure of Yang could pave the way for his arrival. The Canaries are in the market for a new winger after losing star man Borja Sainz in a mega money deal. Norwich have made an incredible profit on Spanish winger Sainz who they signed on a free transfer from Turkish side Giresunspor in 2023. Former Celtic star Greg Taylor stuns PAOK team-mates as he belts out Abba tune for his initiation song And SunSport understands that Yang is the man they think can fill that void. 3 Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page

Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard on Yang Hansen: 'He got some swag to him'
'He got some swag to him.'Had to get @Dame_Lillard's thought on his new rookie teammate @Hans15Y after his official re-introductory press conference Damian Lillard was welcomed back to the Portland Trail Blazers over the weekend, and the nine-time NBA All-Star is excited to get to work with the organization and his new teammates. Lillard was waived by the Milwaukee Bucks on July 6, clearing the way for him to sign a three-year, $42 million contract with the Trail Blazers on Saturday. He spent the past two seasons with the Bucks after playing the first 11 years of his career in Portland. The Trail Blazers' all-time leading scorer is expected to miss the entire upcoming season to rehabilitate a torn left Achilles tendon sustained on April 27. He said at a press conference on Monday that he wants to take as much time as needed to ensure a full recovery on the court. Lillard watched the Trail Blazers from afar and believes they are poised to take another step forward, with a core featuring Jerami Grant, Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe, among others. He is also intrigued with the addition of 7-footer Yang Hansen. "Watching him during summer league, I was like, 'This is a real player,'" Lillard told team reporter Casey Holdahl. "Especially with the way the league is now, with a lot of these bigs that teams use as a hub to play make and facilitate the offense at times. He got some swag to him, too. He got some stuff to him. I think that is good for a rookie, especially somebody coming over that is not from the United States." Yang logged four appearances in the NBA Summer League, averaging 10.8 points, five rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.2 blocks on 45.7% shooting from the field, including 33.3% from 3-point range. He scored in double figures three times, including a 15-point effort on July 15. The 16th pick established himself as one of the top international prospects with Qingdao in the CBA, the top professional league in China. He was an All-Star and All-CBA domestic first-team selection in each season, and was named the 2024 CBA Defensive Player of the Year. Yang is highly touted for his overall skill set and ability as a player who can work down low, space the floor and protect the paint. The organization has had him on its radar for the past two years and believes he can be a player who contributes at a high level on both sides of the court. Though Lillard won't play next year, his addition has created buzz around the team after the group went 23-18 to finish last season. Yang even honored Lillard by recreating his patented "Dame Time" celebration during a postgame interview last week. "He got some personality on him," Lillard said of Yang. "You can tell the way he plays and the way he goes about it, he has some real confidence."

GWM Tank 500 diesel debuts, but Australians will have to wait
TheGWM Tank 500 is gaining a diesel option in Thailand, but for now Australia will stick with hybrid and plug-in hybrid power. That's despite the smaller Tank 300 receiving a turbo-diesel engine earlier this year, which has quickly become the most popular powertrain in that lineup. The Toyota Prado-rivalling Tank 500 is receiving the same 2.4-litre turbo-diesel four-cylinder engine that's seen in the related GWM Cannon Alpha and Tank 300, for the Thai market. However, this vehicle is being built in Thailand, and GWM Australia has confirmed our Tank 500 will continue to be sourced from China. CarExpert can save you thousands on a new GWM Tank 500. Click here to get a great deal. The 2.4-litre turbo-diesel produces 135kW and 480Nm of torque in the Thai-market Tank 500, and is available with either rear- or four-wheel drive. The diesel-powered model is distinguished by a repositioned spare wheel, mounted under the vehicle instead of on the tailgate. GWM has previously hinted the Tank 500 will gain an upcoming four-cylinder 3.0-litre turbo-diesel in Australia. The bigger new engine, due for release around 2027, will also be fitted to the Cannon Alpha and Tank 700 off-road SUV, producing more power and torque than the brand's existing 2.0-litre and 2.4-litre oilers. "Some powertrain, especially [in] the high-end SUV, will need the high-torque [engine]," GWM International vice president James Yang told Australian media in Shanghai earlier this year. "So in China, or other market, we'll have the 2.4-litre diesel, especially in Thailand… But I think in Australia, the high-torque, big engine [is needed]. So for some products, we'll wait for this engine to launch in Australia." It won't be the first Tank 500 powertrain Australia will miss out on, with a 3.0-litre turbocharged petrol V6 also offered overseas but not here. GWM believes it can offset the emissions of its turbo-diesel offerings with a range of hybrids, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and electric vehicles (EVs) "So in the future, I think the Australian market, the PHEV, and HEV, plus diesel is a good choice for the customer… and also we have the EV, but I think for some scenarios the sales volume can be not very high," said Mr Yang. "So maybe these are the three types of powertrain that's much better for this market and also can balance the emissions." GWM now offers hybrid powertrains across its Haval Jolion, Haval H6, Haval H7, Tank 300 and Tank 500 lineups, plus PHEV versions of the Haval H6 GT and Cannon Alpha (and, soon, the Tank 500). It has just one EV, the Ora hatch, but it'll be joined by two more EVs by the end of next year. Petrol power continues to be offered in the Haval Jolion, Haval H6 and Haval H6 GT lineups, and diesel power in the Tank 300, Cannon and Cannon Alpha. The company has said its hybrid-heavy lineup has already allowed it to start accumulating credits under the New Vehicle Efficiency Standard (NVES), meaning it can continue to offer diesel models without copping financial penalties, and also avoid imposing price rises on customers as other brands have done. GWM wants to be a top-five automotive brand in Australia by 2030, with plans to surpass 50,000 sales this year and reach 75,000 annual deliveries by the end of the decade.
