The Riddle
A super spy now on a black list,
From his groovy friend he gets an assist.
Of active cultures he's a big fan,
Stuck in Newark in the original plan,
But now in Florida he has to persist.
Answer
Michael Westen, the lead character in Burn Notice, was a superspy active in Eastern Europe and Russia, before being put on a black list, and "burned." He's now stuck in his hometown of Miami, Florida (rather than Newark, New Jersey, as in the original pitch for the show), where he eats lots of yogurt and hangs out with his buddy, Sam Axe, played by Bruce Campbell. Campbell of course, is known for saying "Groovy" in the Evil Dead franchise, a line he repeats here.

Episode Notes
The Project 863 Scorebreak. The Scorebreak that;s better than anything Netflix puts out. [1/10. Have no idea what this is, feel like I might have been punk’d.]
The Kings Scorebreak: Have you ever wondered what Succession would be like if it was full of painfully earnest biblical references, starred Ian McShane, and aired on NBC in 2009? If so, watch Kings! [4/10. I watched that show, but comparisons to Succession are highly misleading.]
