I’ve been listening to the pod for almost 10 years now (since The Perfect Guy) and it’s been worth every minute. You guys are hilarious, genuine, and passionate, and that’s something in increasingly rare order these days. Your insight and quality has done nothing but grow with time. As a black man in both a predominately white world and white profession, the four of you have always made me feel less tokened. You help remind me that I can be both introspective and a real negro too! Keep up the ph... more
So much potential…but they can’t go 30 seconds without laughing or giggling at something. No exaggeration. It’s like listening to high schoolers.

These guys always bring the funny

Weekly roundtable reviews of Black cinema, from classic and independent films to contemporary releases, horror, comedy, drama, and television. Jay, Micah, Terrence, and T'ara bring distinct reactions to performances, writing, direction, genre conventions, and how films portray Black life. Movie discussions often include candid disagreements, humor, and personal and cultural context; occasional current-events conversations extend that perspective to race, politics, and media representation.
