Bernie Mac is widely regarded as one of the most memorable and influential comedians of his generation—but comedian Aries Spears isn't quite sold on the hype.In this episode of The Arrington Gavin Show, Arrington dives into Spears' eyebrow-raising comments about Bernie Mac and the debate they've sparked among comedy fans. Is Aries simply expressing an unpopular opinion about another comedian's style, or is he overlooking what made Bernie Mac such a legendary figure in stand-up comedy?We'll discuss Bernie Mac's legacy, his impact on comedy, the legendary “Original Kings of Comedy,” and a bigger question: Does respecting someone's legacy mean their work has to appeal to everyone?

Directed by Jeff Pollack in his feature debut, the film stars Duane Martin as Kyle Watson, a high school basketball star torn between two men; Shep (Leon), a security guard with a complicated past seeking redemption, and Birdie (Tupac Shakur), a dangerous local drug dealer who wants to use Kyle's talent for his own ends. Marlon Wayans, Bernie Mac, Wood Harris, and Tonya Pinkins round out the cast.We break down what works, what doesn't, the Harlem Trilogy peaks and valleys, Tupac's performance legacy, and why Above the Rim remains a film of moments rather than a complete film.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

Black on Black Cinema announces our next full review: Above the Rim (1994), the final entry in Barry Michael Cooper's Harlem Trilogy. Directed by Jeff Pollack and starring Duane Martin, Tupac Shakur, Leon, Marlon Wayans, Bernie Mac, and Wood Harris. Above the Rim follows high school basketball star Kyle Watson torn between Shep, a fallen athlete trying to redeem himself, and Birdie, a dangerous drug dealer who happens to be Shep's brother. Tupac Shakur's final theatrical film before his 1996 death is reason enough to revisit it.Then we get into the real conversation: Donald Trump has become everything racists feared a Black president would be. Barack Obama had to be practically perfect to even be considered; Harvard Law, Constitutional law professor, decorated Senator, devoted husband and father, scandal-free, measured, dignified. Every box checked. Meanwhile Trump arrived with business failures, fraud convictions, hush money payments, multiple affairs, and a career built on corruption. Ta-Nehisi Coates called Trump "the first white president;" not merely because he's white, but because his entire political existence hinges on the fact of a Black president. His campaign started with birtherism. Coates wrote: "It is as if the white tribe united to say — if a Black man can be president, then any white man, no matter how fallen, can be president." We unpack what that means in 2026.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

BrownTown discusses "Life" (1999) with trina reynolds tyler & Maira Khwaja of TM Productions and the Invisible Institute. The double duo breakdown the cult classic's coverage of US incarceration through the decades, respectability politics within Black and Southern white culture, the guilty-innocent dichotomy through an abolitionist lens, and the relatability and timelessness of '90's buddy comedies.

But they run into more trouble when a crooked, racist white Sheriff hits them with a phony murder charge and they are given lifetime prison sentences.

Cʹest un casse, brillant, aussi brillant que les lumières de Las Vegas Oceanʹs Eleven, un film de Steven Soderbergh sorti en 2001. Remake de lʹInconnu de Las Vegas (Oceanʹs Eleven), sorti en 1960 de Lewis Milestone avec Frank Sinatra, notre film du jour raconte lʹhistoire de Danny Ocean qui veut reconquérir sa femme, ruiner lʹamant de celle-ci en procédant au plus grand casse quʹà connu Las Vegas en volant, la même nuit, trois des plus grands casinos de la ville. Pour ce faire, il sʹentoure dʹune équipe soudée et sʹen vont faire des misères au propriétaire des casinos. Le film brille par son casting exceptionnel : ils sont toutes et tous là : Georges Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Bernie Mac, Don Cheadle, Andy García, Julia Roberts, Elliott Gould et Carl Reiner. Pur divertissement, il est emmené à bon rythme entre le film de gangster, le film dʹarnaque et le film dʹamour, avec brio, efficacité et séduction. Steven Soderbergh, réalisateur aux doigts dʹor, change complètement dʹunivers après Erin Brockovich et Traffic et propose une resucée énergique dʹun classique du cinéma de genre, cʹest-à-dire quelque chose entre lʹarnaque et le film de bande de potes. Oceanʹs Eleven est bien accueilli à sa sortie. Forcément, Soderbergh, le réalisateur, est en odeur de sainteté, et puis surtout, il y a la fine fleur dʹHollywood qui joue dedans et qui à lʹair de bien sʹamuser. Et tout le monde veut voir ça. Le film rapporte plus de 450 millions de dollars au box-office mondial. Il y aura des suites, Ocean's Twelve en 2004 et Ocean's Thirteen en 2007 où les acteurs reprennent tous plus ou moins leur rôle.

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to review Soul Men (2008) which was released just two months after Bernie Mac's death, making it a bittersweet farewell to one of comedy's greatest talents. Directed by Malcolm D. Lee and starring Samuel L. Jackson alongside Mac, this road trip musical comedy follows two estranged backup singers reuniting for a tribute concert after their lead singer dies.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to introduce the next film to the reviewed, "Soul Men." The 2008 film follows two estranged soul-singing legends who agree to participate in a reunion performance at the Apollo Theater to honor their recently deceased band leader. The movie stars Samuel L. Jackson and the late great Bernie Mac. Available to stream for free on Tubi.The random topic this week we tackle the complex and difficult incident that unfolded at the 2026 BAFTA Film Awards when John Davidson, a Tourette's syndrome activist and subject of the nominated film "I Swear," involuntarily shouted racial slurs—including the N-word—while Black actors Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo presented an award.This isn't a simple story. It's a collision of disability rights, anti-Black racism, media responsibility, and institutional failure.What happened: Davidson, who has spent decades advocating for Tourette's awareness, experienced involuntary vocal tics throughout the ceremony. His condition causes coprolalia—the uncontrollable utterance of socially inappropriate words. When Jordan and Lindo took the stage, Davidson's tic produced the N-word, audible throughout the venue.The BBC's failure: Despite broadcasting on a two-hour delay (giving them time to edit), the BBC left the slur in the broadcast AND on iPlayer for 15+ hours. Yet they DID edit out other content, including a "Free Palestine" statement and political jokes. The selective editing reveals a catastrophic failure/purposeful behavior in judgment and priorities.The complications: This incident sits at the painful intersection of two marginalized communities. Davidson has no control over his tics—they represent the opposite of his actual beliefs. Yet Black attendees, including production designer Hannah Beachler, experienced real racial trauma. Lindo told Vanity Fair he wished BAFTA had spoken to them afterward. Host Alan Cumming's apology said "sorry if you were offended" was woefully inadequate.Why this matters for cinema: The film "I Swear" was nominated for multiple BAFTAs and won three awards, including Best Actor for Robert Aramayo's portrayal of Davidson. The movie exists to educate about Tourette's. Yet BAFTA and the BBC failed both the disability community AND the Black community in how they handled this moment.We discuss:- The impossible position both communities were put in due to the BBC's actions or lack thereof- Why institutional preparation and response failed catastrophically- The difference between individual accountability and systemic responsibility- How ableism and anti-Black racism played out in the aftermath (including the idea of "he meant that shit" comments)- What should have happened vs. what did happen- The broader conversation about representation, disability, and whose comfort gets prioritizedThis is a conversation about nuance, compassion, and holding institutions accountable when they fail vulnerable communities.Full Black on Black Cinema episodes coming soon.

This week we are joined by friend of the show, Seizethemeansshirts to discuss Steven Soderbergh's "Ocean's Eleven." With an ensemble cast of George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Bernie Mac, Matt Damon, Don Cheadle, Casey Affleck, Scott Caan, Elliot Gould, Carl Reiner, Andy Garcia and Julia Roberts (among others), this remake of the Rat Pack's own Ocean's Eleven from 1960 went on to spawn two trilogies and a spin off led by Sandra Bullock.We discuss the creation of wealth, the unity of the proletariat vs the schisms of the capitalists and their fundamental atomization, our guest points out more inconsistencies in the heist than one of us is comfortable with and we still come out unable to decide whether this is the greatest remake of all time or just one of the greatest remakes of all time.Guest LinksSeize the Means Shirts on EtsySeize the Means Shirts on InstagramSeize the Means Shirts on YoutubeLeft of the Projector LinksOfficial WebsiteLeft of the Projector on InstagramLeft of the Projector on PatreonLeft of the Projector on ThreadlessHost LinksEvan's LetterboxdBill's InstagramBill's LetterboxdWard's InstagramWard's Letterboxd

Send us a textDan Soder is on the move with his Golden Retriever Of Comedy Tour, and St. Louis is one of the stops he is most excited about. The popular stand-up comedian, actor, and podcaster will take the stage at The Factory in Chesterfield on Saturday, November 22. Doors open at 6 pm and the show begins at 7 pm. The event is all ages and tickets are available at dansoder.com. Fans can also watch his special On The Road on YouTube ahead of the show.Before the tour hits St. Louis, Soder joined The Mox and Chuck on The Barn for a fun and wide-ranging conversation. Immediately settling into discussing what he loves about performing in the area. Soder praised St. Louis for its loyal comedy audiences and joked about the city's ability to show up in any type of weather. That appreciation came through as he previewed his Factory performance and talked about what makes the region a great stop for stand-up.Sports always seem to find their way into a Dan Soder conversation, and his chat to The Barn was no different. The group reminisced about the St. Louis Rams and the era of the Greatest Show on Turf. Soder shared his mixed feelings about the team leaving, as well as his admiration for how St. Louis fans rallied around the XFL. They also compared their own sports loyalties. Soder sticks with the Giants and the 49ers, while The Barn follows the Bills and the Packers. Soder noted that if his team ever moved, he would prefer choosing a new one rather than following a relocated franchise.Soder and the crew also explored how comedy continues to evolve. He reflected on the impact of podcasts, which have opened huge opportunities while also changing how audiences discover stand-up. He talked about the decline of comedy films, shifting media habits, and his admiration for icons like Bernie Mac and Norm Macdonald. Through it all, Soder emphasized the importance of staying true to the craft of stand-up even as formats around it change.With his St. Louis show approaching, Soder left listeners eager to catch his performance at The Factory. His stop at The Barn offered a thoughtful and entertaining look at his life on tour, his love for stand-up, and his connection to the city. The Golden Retriever Of Comedy Tour rolls on, and St. Louis is next in line for a night of sharp jokes, strong stories, and classic Dan Soder energy.www.BetterHelp.com/TheBarnhttp://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn http://www.betterhelp.com/TheBarnThis episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and brought to you as always by The Barn Media Group.

In this episode of “Normal World,” Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with headlines about Kevin Federline worrying over Britney Spears before moving through a fast mix of pop culture, news, and sharp comedy. They trade stories from their early days in Chicago comedy, reflecting on clubs like Zanies and Appleton, wild audiences, and how Midwest weather fuels bad moods and great jokes. The team breaks down Portland's naked bike ride and the odd logic of modern protest, then jumps into Utah's culture of repression and religion. The tone turns darker when they react to Danny Masterson's prison transfer, with Robert offering real insight from his time as a jail guard, sharing absurd and disturbing moments from behind bars. They explore the case of an Arkansas father who killed his daughter's attacker and is now running for sheriff, debating justice and moral boundaries. The conversation deepens as Robert recounts a violent tragedy near his mother's Chicago home, before lifting the mood with a tribute to movie-poster icon Drew Struzan and a skeptical look at the new Bruce Springsteen biopic. The show closes with a nod to the legends of comedy, from Eddie Murphy and Bernie Mac to Rudy Ray Moore, and how their storytelling still shapes stand-up today.

Send us a textEver hear a single sentence change someone's life? That's how Jay Flake's story starts—cracking jokes in a corporate training room when an older coworker told him he'd missed his calling. One open mic later, the Nashville comic found his lane: high-energy, true-story material that feels lived-in, then sharpened it into a clean-comedy brand that books hard and lasts longer.We dig into the gritty rise that rarely makes the highlight reel: Zoom corporate sets, underground rooms, patio shows, and a pandemic album that hit festivals even as the video stayed shelved to protect the brand. Jay breaks down why some jokes belong to their moment, how cleaner material unlocked better gigs, and how to translate everyday chaos into bits that crush without cheap shots. The COVID talk is raw and hilarious—taste disappearing mid-breakfast, a hotel deodorant “taste test,” and the lonely, surreal weeks that turned survival into stories.The craft gets equal airtime. Jay salutes Bernie Mac's fearlessness, Dave Chappelle's ease with ordinary ideas, and Ali Sadiq's storytelling and business blueprint: drop on Patreon, expand on YouTube, then license to streamers for a third check. We also walk through Andrew Schultz's clip-first playbook and the discipline behind album timing—finding minutes, trimming fat, and protecting your voice. Plus, the green room rules nobody teaches: listen more than you talk, guard private shop talk, and treat owners and managers like the partners they are.Want the laughs and the ladder? This one gives both—part origin story, part strategy guide, and packed with practical moves any comic or creator can use right now. Tap play, then check Jay's 13-minute NateLand showcase and see the craft in action.

Send us a textWhat happens when you trade a boardroom for a black box theater and decide to start from scratch in your 50s? We sit down with actor and stand-up comic Sheri Gill Dixon for a fearless, funny, and deeply human conversation about falling in love with movies as a teenage usher threading reels, discovering Meisner training in Virginia Beach, and building a comedy voice that lives or dies by instant feedback. Sheri takes us behind the scenes of big sets like Tammy—where she held her boundaries without apology—and shares why watching Melissa McCarthy and Kathy Bates work reminded her that kindness and professionalism scale.The heart of this conversation lives on stage. Sheri breaks down how she moved from the safety of scripts to the risk of stand-up, why writing often happens mid-set, and how crowd work can surface sharper material than any quiet desk session. We talk influence and range—Joan Rivers and Moms Mabley opening doors; Richard Pryor, Bernie Mac, Dave Chappelle shaping storytelling; Seinfeld's polish and Miss Pat's punch; Thea Vidale's relatable grit—and how those threads weave into a voice that's unmistakably her own. We also get real about women in comedy: the scarcity baked into flyers, the myth of one chair, and how the Ladies of Comedy pack flips the script through collaboration, shared opportunities, and relentless support.Beyond the mic, Sheri opens up about motivation that isn't Instagram-ready. Working in transit surfaced daily inequities; the George Floyd era pushed her toward doctoral work and sharpened her belief that art can ease what policy cannot. Comedy becomes the pressure valve and the bridge: a room that laughs together, even for an hour, carries less weight home. We swap notes on good rooms and cold crowds, choosing where to spend your energy, and the quiet power of a stranger saying your set made their night worth the babysitter.If you're navigating a late start, eyeing a pivot from acting to stand-up, or building a creative crew that resists gatekeeping, this one's for you. Hit follow, share this with a friend who needs the nudge, and drop a review with the moment that stuck with you—what leap are you ready to take next?Support the show

This podcast episode delves into the cinematic experience of "Ocean's Thirteen," a film that exemplifies the blend of humor and heist intricacies inherent in the Ocean's franchise. The discussion opens with a nostalgic reflection on the late Bernie Mac, whose comedic prowess is sorely missed, prompting an exploration of the film's characters and their relationships. We analyze the film's narrative structure, noting its similarities to its predecessor, "Ocean's Eleven," while acknowledging the entertainment value that persists despite its lack of depth. The hosts engage in a spirited debate regarding the effectiveness of the film's heist mechanics and the chemistry among the ensemble cast, highlighting both the absurdity and the charm of the screenplay. Ultimately, we arrive at a consensus that, while "Ocean's Thirteen" may not be a critical masterpiece, it remains an enjoyable viewing experience that lightens the mood and entertains audiences.Support us:https://www.patreon.com/whatsourverdictEmail us: hosts@whatsourverdict.comFollow us:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/whatsourverdictTwitter: @whatsourverdictInstagram: @whatsourverdictYouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC-K_E-ofs3b85BnoU4R6liAVisit us:www.whatsourverdict.com
