- saw an interview with him where he talks about being raised on the baseball diamond being the son of a major leaguer._niko
- and when he throws he throws like a shortstop, off balance and from the side, which totally makes sense._niko

One of the coolest things I've recently come across is the most recent movement to digitize archival film footage at a more and more rapid rate.
What I predict strongly what we are seeing now and in the future, is the release of long unseen archives of film and audio recordings.
There were about a dozen global news and subject matter film (the MSM of the time) operating in 35mm and 16mm from roughly 1900-1950s.
I'm predicting 90% of their daily film footage has never been seen by the public—from that time period.
For example of Fox News Reels (1910-1950) has 81 million feet of film and has only released 5 million feet of "outtakes" to be digitize.
And Guy Jones YouTube archives he shows these same "outakes" so I think the actual news reels will be complete and of pristine quality.
All of this material would surely contain epic musical performances, battles, historical sporting events, interviews, et al, etc. Never seen since that time.
This does not even include digitization of person 16mm family film archives that are also popping up everywhere.
For example, here's a beautiful 1943 travelogue in Oaxaca discussing the unique role and customs of women in the region, just overall cool.
This is just a taste to come, we'll be soon looking into past film footage like a time machine...
