Andy Sorcini aka Mr. Baby Man from The Drill Down and Greg Davies aka cGt2099 from Social Blend join forces for The Round Up – a short mini podcast focusing on some entertainment news, with a preview of what’s coming up in Social Blend and The Drill Down.
For the 71st Edition of The Round Up, Andy journeys into the mind of the Fully Sick Rapper, aka Christian Van Vuuren, who created a music video by which he could creatively pass time while living a Life In Quarantine. Greg then takes us into the darkness of dreams, with the new trailer from the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street, starring Jackie Earl Haley as Freddy Krueger, and directed by Samuel Bayer.
