Movie studio A24 is auctioning off props from the hit film Everything, Everywhere All At Once to raise money for laundry workers, asian mental health, and transgender rights.
Up for auction will be a number of items from the multiverse-spanning movie, such as a Dierdre's IRS ID card, Jobu's Elvis costume, and an instantly recognizable "Auditor of the Month Trophy."
In addition, one of the film's most iconic visual gags — which takes place in an alternative universe where everyone has hot dogs for fingers — is represented with a pair of "Hot Dog Hands" and a pair of "Knitted Hot Dog Finger Gloves." Plus, the Raccacoonie puppet itself will also be up for bidding.
If you're a fan of the genre-bending, dimension-hopping film, all of these references will make sense. If you're not, then maybe you'd just like to support a good cause.
Tech apprenticeship platform Multiverse became a unicorn with a $1.7 billion valuation, after raising $220 million in a Series D round. As companies across the country face challenges in hiring and retaining tech talent, Multiverse says it's trying to offer a solution with a new way to train and hire workers that can serve as an alternative to college and corporate training. Sophie Ruddock, VP and GM North America of Multiverse, joins Cheddar News' Closing Bell to discuss.
Cheddar's Kristen Scholer caught up with all-time NBA great Shaquille O'Neal in his hometown of Newark, NJ, working with Icy Hot to repair rundown basketball courts around the country. The Hall of Famer also spoke about the current NBA finals between the Boston Celtics and Golden State Warriors and had a lot of praise for the Warrior's guard Stephen Curry. "He's the greatest shooter of all time. I had a conversation with Stephen A. [Smith], where does he rank? He's a special player. He has his own category," Shaq said.
