What happens when the women step away and it's just the guys behind the mics? Pure, unfiltered testosterone-fueled conversation erupts in this special "Niggas Night" episode where boundaries disappear and the raw energy of male camaraderie takes center stage.The crew dives headfirst into the curious case of the movie "Sinners," which despite generating $45 million at the box office, can't even be watched by residents of Clarksdale, Mississippi – the very town where the film is set. This bizarre situation highlights the disconnect between Hollywood success and small-town American reality, forcing locals to drive 80 miles just to see their hometown on the big screen.The conversation shifts to NFL draft drama, focusing on Shador Sanders' unexpected fall to the 155th pick and the cruel prank call he received that resulted in a $350,000 fine for the Falcons organization. This sparks broader discussions about accountability, respect, and the emotional toll of public humiliation in professional sports.When the topic turns to the viral debate of "one gorilla versus 100 men," passionate arguments erupt with surprising unanimity – the gorilla would dominate. The guys break down the science behind gorilla strength (they can lift 10 times their body weight!) and the practical logistics of how such a confrontation would actually play out, creating one of the episode's most entertaining segments.The crew doesn't shy away from controversial territory, examining Shannon Sharpe's relationship with a significantly younger woman and the societal double standards at play. This leads to a provocative exploration of age gaps, power dynamics, and the blurred lines between moral judgment and legal boundaries.Between these heated debates, the episode showcases a freestyle rap segment called "Pod and Bars," revealing hidden talents and bringing an entirely different energy to the podcast. Join us for this unfiltered glimpse into what happens when the guys have the studio to themselves – you might be surprised at where the conversation leads.Support the showFollow us on social media www.instagram.com/noadvisorypod

Ryan Coogler's Sinners, a singularly ambitious horror film set in 1930s Mississippi, is currently setting theaters ablaze (in an array of formats and aspect ratios to boot). The film stars Coogler mainstay Michael B. Jordan in a dual role as a pair of badass twins returning to their rural hometown of Clarksdale to build a blues joint—with performers whose talents are powerful enough to summon some unwanted spirits.  To talk about this fascinating film—which weaves together genres and tones to startling, if at times overwhelming, effect—Film Comment Editors Clinton Krute and Devika Girish invited Podcast veteran Robert Daniels (Rogerebert.com) and FC's very own Michael Blair into their humble juke-joint. After sinking their fangs into Sinners, the group touches on a few other new theatrical releases they're excited about, including Steven Soderbergh's stylish spy thriller Black Bag (42:26) and Andrew Ahn's The Wedding Banquet (52:22), a refreshing update on Ang Lee's 1993 classic.

Wright Thompson grew up in Clarksdale, Mississippi, before going on to write for ESPN, The Atlantic, and the New York Times, among other publications. In 2018, he created the travel documentary show, TrueSouth, which is now in its 8th season on the SEC Network; and in 2020, he came out with a terrific book called Pappyland: A Story of Family, Fine Bourbon, and the Things That Last. Wright's latest book, The Barn: The Secret History of a Murder in Mississippi, examines the lasting impact and legacy of the Emmett Till murder, as well as the extraordinary efforts by some to obscure or distort the facts. It's one of the best books I've read in a long time, incredibly well researched and reported, and told with the insights that only a Mississippian could bring to the story. Sid talks to Wright about the remarkable journey of Emmett Till's cousin, Wheeler Parker, who was there the night of the abduction; the strong connection between the Mississippi Delta and Chicago; and why it took so many decades for the secrets of this horrendous crime to come to light.

When a city government uses the courts to silence a newspaper, it's not just an attack on one publication—it's an attack on press freedom itself. That's exactly what happened in Clarksdale, Mississippi, where a judge ordered the Clarksdale Press Register to remove an editorial questioning the transparency of a proposed tax initiative. The ruling, widely condemned as an egregious violation of the First Amendment, has ignited national concern among journalists and legal experts. In this exclusive conversation, E&P Reports dives into the case with publisher Wyatt Emmerich and press freedom advocate Seth Stern to explore what this means for the future of local journalism—and why every newsroom should be paying attention.   Access more (including actual censored editorial, Complaint and Restraining Order) at this episode's landing page, at: https://www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/what-happens-when-a-city-silences-a-newspaper-an-inside-look-at-the-clarksdale-censorship-case,254442

Mit der amerikanischen Bluegrass-Sängerin Alison Krauss nimmt Plant das Album „Raising Sand“ auf, das 2007 erscheint. Darauf präsentieren die beiden eine faszinierende Mischung aus Folk, Country, Blues und Rock. „Raising Sand“ wird ein Überraschungserfolg und gewinnt, neben anderen Preisen, 2009 sogar einen Grammy Award. 2021 setzen die beiden ihre Zusammenarbeit fort, das Ergebnis überzeugt erneut.

Nach dem Ende von Led Zeppelin geht Robert Plant viele andere Wege. Schon in den 80er Jahren veröffentlicht er sowohl Alben mit Klassikern, neu interpretiert mit Freunden, als auch neue Lieder auf einer Reihe von Alben. Die Klänge sind leichter, poppiger. Robert Plant weitet seinen musikalischen Horizont ständig. 1993 erreicht mit „Fate of Nation“ sein Schaffen einen Höhepunkt, erstmals geht er auch wieder auf Tournee. Jimmy Page versucht, mit The Firm, einer neu formierten Band um ihn und den Sänger Paul Rodgers, mit dem Powerrock der 80er Jahre mitzuhalten. Nach zwei Alben ist aber damit Schluss. In den 90er Jahren arbeiten Page und Plant überraschend wieder zusammen.

Growing up in Clarksdale, Mississippi, Bennett was highly inspired by her teacher, Ms. Stampley, and experienced the profound impact of having Black educators who understood the urgency of her community's needs. Reflecting on her son's contrasting educational journey, she notes the systemic challenges he's encountered, including low expectations and lack of resources, like a science lab and the ability to apply to certain high schools.  "Black educators make their students see that they have the capability to do more and be more."  Barbara shares multiple stories of the impact Black educators can have on their students. From reflecting on her high school science teacher to her own pursuit of teacher licensure, her village (which included a lot of Alpha Kappa Alpha women!) prepared her to advocate for all students, including her own son. Her passion for education is rooted in the heart and empathy she brings to the classroom, mirroring the love and care she received from her mentor.  Sending special gratitude and a huge #Shoutout to Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Incorporated, Xi Nu Omega Chapter, where Barbara and Danielle are both active members. Danielle was invited to host a Black Educators Matter table at the March 2024 Chapter meeting, and Barbara signed up to share her story!

Join us for our conversation with Charles Wright. Mr. Express Yourself himself. Charles Williams Wright (born April 6, 1940) is an American singer, instrumentalist and songwriter. He has been a member of various doo wop groups in the late 1950s and early 1960s as well as a solo artist in his own right. He is also the former leader and writer of hits for the group, Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band. Wright was born on April 6, 1940, in Clarksdale, Mississippi, United States. The seventh of twelve children, he was raised on a cotton plantation. Years later, he would refer the sharecropping era as "The next shade after slavery". According to the book Up from Where We've Come, the sharecropper that owned that plantation was a cruel man by the name of Edward Miles. When Wright was 12, the family moved to Los Angeles. Contrary to his father's rule of not allowing his children to listen to secular music, he began listening to popular music and became mesmerized by it. Jesse Belvin was a singer that he heard on the radio was to have a significant influence on the young Wright and who became his mentor. After hearing Belvin on the radio, he looked up his number in the phone book and contacted him. He was told by Belvin to stop copying his sound and find his own. Later, Belvin took Wright under his wing and helped him get started. This association lasted until 1960, but stopped because Belvin died in a car crash at the age of 27. The following year, Wright had his first hit record. Wright is best known for his role as band leader of the group Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band, which had the classic 1971 hit "Express Yourself". He has been associated with Johnny Guitar Watson, touring with him and playing on early recordings by him. He also added his vocals to an album by The Watsonian Institute. For a very brief period, Wright managed singer Bill Withers Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
