Are you wondering what you’re going to do all summer? Well, InsideHook has it figured out. They put together a list of what you should watch, read and listen to this summer, whether you are sitting at the beach or staying out of the heat with some A/C.
WATCH: Sorry to Bother You
Boots Riley (from iconic political hip-hop group The Coup) wrote and directed this weird tale of an African-American telemarketer (Lakeith Stanfield) who suddenly excels at his job when he adopts a “white voice” — the very pasty tones of comedian David Cross. The movie comes out in select theaters on July 6, everywhere on July 13.
Want to use the movie theater’s free A/C? You can also check out Ant-Man and the Wasp (July 6), McQueen (July 20) and Mission Impossible: Fallout (July 27), or head to InsideHook’s Summer Movie Guide.
BINGE: Castle Rock
This J.J. Abrams-produced drama is shrouded in mystery, but it does tie together a lot of Stephen King’s most iconic works — which often took place in this titular city. (July 25, Hulu)
CELEBRATE: Nelson Mandela 100th birthday
The late South African leader was born on July 18, 1918, and to celebrate, InsideHook offers two timely book suggestions: Going to the Mountain, a series of life lessons as shared by his grandson (out June 26), and The Prison Letters of Nelson Mandela (out July 10), a series of previously unseen correspondence from the great anti-apartheid revolutionary.
READ: Gossamer
This magazine is for “discerning and curious individuals who just happen to smoke weed.” You can learn about secret hotels, Sedona’s renaissance as a travel destination, criminal-justice reform, fake food, and more while also reading about expected topics like CBD oil and stoned Tinder.
LISTEN: InsideHook’s Spotify playlist
The playlist includes some of the best songs of the month, like new hits by Interpol, Macy Gray, Gorillaz, Underworld and more.
