This boy Achilles has been fascinated with cooking toys since he was a baby! We’re just trying to have a nice family evening rocking out to the Foos and their new drummer, but he insists on serving us ‘apple juice’ and ‘chocolate juice’! #TheBustAzlees #TheBustAzleeMafakas

The Super Mario Bros Nintendo game and the 1989 Super Mario Bros Super Show was a staple in our house in the 1980s. And now the original theme song is playing on loop in our house in 2023!

Some people I got to know when I first started making films in the early 2000s. A source for a lot of my inspiration and motivation back then and always! Glad that we’re friends till this day!

The question is, did I manage to get tickets to the Coldplay concert or not?

I wanted to take my shirt off for the 2023 version but the other two mafakas refused! 🙄🙄 We don’t look a day over 22! 😂😂
