The true currency of our digital age isn’t rooted in crypto but instead a person’s ability to fire off a meme funny enough to take the world by storm. For NBA Twitter king Josiah Johnson, his ability to capture a moment from a live game and contextualize it within online shenanigans has garnered him reverence from fans to members of the league itself. But when one of the most popular memes goes missing without a trace, it’s up to Josiah to solve a mystery that goes to the highest levels of the Association and the darkest trenches of Twitter — or X, whatever we’re calling it these days.
Executive produced by LeBron James and Maverick Carter, this extraordinary tale pushes comedic sensibilities into unexpected territory as cultural references and fandom collide. Josiah Johnson leads an odyssey across the country to explore ephemeral media and larger-than-life characters, but also to investigate the dynamics of what these elements mean for our relationships to each other in the digital age.––Casey Baron
