LAUGHS ON-DEMAND
Saratogian/Hollywood director Josh Greenbaum has released his first big-budget film, Barb and Star Go to Vista Del Mar, to a video-on-demand platform near you. Co-written by and starring Kristen Wiig and Annie Mumulo, who also gifted the world with the Oscar-nominated Bridesmaids, the film follows bosom buddies Barb and Star as they leave the comfort of their Midwestern homes for the first time ever. (Of course, hilarity ensues.)

BARE IF YOU DARE
Nothing says “spring” like an early morning jog—and a delicious, rejuvenating smoothie afterwards. Clifton Park residents now have a new running destination: BARE Blends, a Capital Region–born franchise that has expanded from a single location in Stuyvesant Plaza to a second in Clifton Park’s Village Plaza (Latham and Saratoga locations are also imminent). Besides smoothies, BARE offers an array of smoothie bowls, wellness shots and fresh-pressed juices. Yum!
