Cause You’re Hot Then You’re Cold

Cause You’re Hot Then You’re Cold

Something strange happens to me when I hear Katy Perry. I can’t help but dance. I can’t help but love her catchy shallow pop tunes, they just get my heart rate up a few notches. I just didn’t realize that it had the same effect on Ryan and Jake.

Trashketball Madness!

Trashketball is a national pastime here at the Maven office. In this rare video appearance Jake attempts one the greatest levels of difficulty known to the Trashketball community..the double bank shot! She is a fickle lady.
