Deedee to Chantal- Gimme Back My Dopefiend! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/goddess-sweetpea/support

The Dopefiend is joined, at a very early hour, for another 420 special by the Gremlin of Ganja in London, Syconot in California, HudsonRulez in Toronto, Scottobaggins and Green Lady in London, J Hobbes in Poland, Mrs Mole and TeenagePie in Halmstead. We cover such varied topics as Hudsonrulez's new job hauling cannabis and the necessity of firearms, the various strains and devices on display at this year's 420 including the Volcano Hybrid, the Ispire Wand and the Tafée Bowle. We also touch on the sad demise of VapeXhale in the past few months. We talk about the rise of Stardawg as a new bedrock strain in the UK, intravenous Ketamine as a treatment of depression, the latest on the UK medical cannabis scene, of which TeenagePie is now partaking, and how the police are responding to it, the use of CBD and CBN including some talk of surprising results with high dose CBN, a story of a DopeTribe grower whose grow was discovered by the police, and the recent disappearance of Blank Steve: can the Dopetribe find him?

On this week's 420 Special of Dopefiend Quarantined the Dopefiend is joined by a bong-ripping Gremlin of Ganja, Scoobysnakks, Mrs Mole and Teenage Pie, Green Lady and Scottobaggins, Jay Hobbes, Hudsonrulez and Syconot for a freewheeling stoney sesh covering such diverse topics as the origins of 420, the origins of the Dopefiend Network's 420 celebrations, including the game of Svaristiqué, the Canal Cruises, mushroom trips and other fun, and the general atmosphere of Amsterdam in April, as well as stories of other 420 celebrations in San Francisco, Toronto, how 420 in the age of Covid will be- no more joint passing for one thing! Are we nearing the end point of communal stonage? If so do we really need cannabis consumption lounges? We also discuss some whitey stories, why fainting occurs with some cannabis users like Teenage Pie, a similar story involving Gremlin and some truffles, and another involving Syconot and Nitrous Oxide, leading to some talk about the combination of Nitrous Oxide and LSD and how it can induce a sort of time-travel experience back to ancient times. We then take some time to respond to a post from Redditor dzidzgdmin about how Cannabis isn't as safe as it's made out to be, and also talk about the recent spat between London Mayor Sadiq Khan and former London Mayor and current Prime Minister of the UK Boris Johnson about cannabis legalization, and shifting attitudes to cannabis across the globe, before we count down to 4.20 itself and enjoy some delicious vapey flavours while listening to Jay Hobbes play us out in honour of this special stoner holiday. Don't miss the second season of Grow Nation starting on April 21st right here on Dopefiend.co.uk! And check twitter.com/dopefiend if you want to join our all day 420 sesh on zoom.

On this week's Dopefiend Quarantined the Dopefiend is joined by Syconot in California, Cannaya in Seattle, HudsonRulez in Ontario, Green Lady and Scotto Baggins in South London, Esse B in West London, Jay Hobbes in Wales, the Gremlin of Ganja in London, Teenage Pie and Mrs Mole in Halmstead to celebrate the news that New York has legalized cannabis for all adults over 21, and expunged related convictions, and what this means for the likelihood of national legalization, how New Mexico and even Switzerland appear to be jumping on this bandwagon, we also give some first time advice for New Yorkers about to embark on their legal cannabis journey as the Dopefiend munches on one of Green Lady's brand new medicated vegan Creme Eggs. This leads to some talk about the differences between vape carts and vaping flower, and vaping vs edibles, and how CBD affects the edible experience. We then move on to the possibility of legalization in the UK, following the recommendations of the recent investigation into race inequality in the UK that favoured legalization, how medical legalization has altered the landscape in the UK, including for Esse B who has got the ball rolling on his own prescription process, and who's also celebrating the relaxation of lockdown in the UK, allowing him to meet with the Dopefiend and the Bagginsis for a nice garden sesh at the Dope Den, allowing us to experience the communal aspects of cannabis once again- leading us to consider possible plans for this year's 420 celebrations. Finally we talk a bit about how British Columbia in Canada is trying to get to grips with the problem of medical growers selling excess product on the black market, and stories of how US legal cannabis makes its way overseas. Join us next week for our 420 Special!  

On this week's Dopefiend Quarantined the Dopefiend is joined by Scoobysnakks, Scottobaggins and Green Lady, TeenagePie and Mrs Mole, J Hobbes, Hudsonrulez, The Vaporist, Syconot and the Gremlin of Ganja who are talking about the dreaded curse of anti-vaxxers, how the Dopetribe handle encounters with these characters, how social media encourages these kinds of outlooks, and can even encourage us to generate false personalities based on likes and shares, the phenomenon of "research", how antivaxxer ideas are linked to conspiracy theories like QAnon and climate change denial, and also to the concept of cannabis as a cancer remedy, whether there is any truth to it, how the profit and greed involved in medicine can lead a lot of cannabis users to be suspicious, and whether distrust of authority is a trait that particularly effects cannabis users, and whether social media can be used to re-educate people. We also squeeze in a bit of chat about the new £5 per gram medical flower available to patients in the UK, and the profit-motivated waters that patients have to navigate in this private environment, as well as some encouraging news for cannabis patients travelling to Thailand, and also for patients taking domestic flights around the UK, all discovered by redditors at r/ukmedicalcannabis, as well as the good news on New York's new legal cannabis law, which again raises the question of when the US decriminalises cannabis at the federal level, something that seems all the more unlikely when the Biden administration has just fired five staffers who admitted to use of legal cannabis. Meanwhile Michigan legalizes psychedelics- a welcome reminder of just how far we've come just as Amsterdam yet again winds up the old wietpas chesnut- so what will be the next big new cannabis destination? Las Vegas? Ibiza? And how will this brave new cannabis planet get around the emissions and carbon footprint of cannabis horticulture. Join us next Sunday for another Dopefiend Quarantined! Email mail@dopefiend.co.uk, tweet @dopefiend and join us in Instagram @dopefiendquarantined

Back for another Dopefiend Quarantined as we count down the weeks to our 420 special, the Dopefiend is joined this week by The Vaporist, Hudsonrulez, BB, Syconot, Scotto Baggins and Green Lady, MangledMe, TeenagePie and Mrs Mole, Jade HempressRising, Lorenzo Hagerty and Jade HempressRising to talk about the recent reductions in prices of medical cannabis in the UK, with one flower now available at only £5 per gram and suggestions of similar prices across the board, how this compares to other medical markets in Canada and Australia, the various medical cannabis ID cards currently available in the UK and whether the many options are muddying the waters, whether UK medical cannabis patients are permitted to drive while using their prescribed cannabis medicine, whether legalization has prevented the police fucking people over in California, the public image of the police in the UK following the murder of Sarah Everard by a police officer and the heavy handed policing of the subsequent peaceful protests, coupled with the threats of extremely tight restrictions on the right to protest. Jade HempressRising also raises the issue of tight restrictions coming in against CBD products and edibles, leading to some talk about creeping authoritarianism in the UK, and some talk about the new documentary Can't Get You Out of My Head by Adam Curtis. Apologies for the audio drop-outs in this episode!

On the first episode of Dopefiend Quarantined's second season, the Dopefiend and DopeTribe are back one year after the world went into lockdown and reconnect on how their lives have changed in the past twelve months, with input from Scottobaggins and Green Lady, Son of Gonzo, the Gremlin of Ganja, Hudsonrulez, Teenage Pie and Mrs Mole discussing the UK medical cannabis scene, Aquaponics, the perils of home schooling, the depressing life of musicians and performers this past year, the therapeutic benefits of horticulture and home gardening, the new Tafée Bowle vaporizer and what makes it so unique, TeenagePie's new TikTok habit, lucid dreaming and dream interpretation, encounters with US customs, the chances of full legalization in the USA and the political climate in general, social media's impact on politics and how science fiction is becoming reality. Finally we close with a song from Son of Gonzo.

It's Christmas Morning at the Dope Den so the Dopefiend has woken up the worldwide DopeTribe to resurrect the beloved tradition of the Twelve Strains of Christmas in a digital lockdown edition featuring Teenage Pie and Mrs Mole in Halmstead, BB in Melbourne, J Hobbes in Poznan, Scotto Baggins and Green Lady in South London, Syconot and Syconut in California, Tirikite Toker in Brisbane, Hudsonrulez in Ontario, Lorenzo Hagerty in San Diego and Jade HempressRising in North London for a stoney Christmas morning chat about why weed and Christmas go so well together, how it's the first Christmas with medical cannabis for BB and the Dopefiend, and how that's changed their approaches to getting high with the family and level of general paranoia, how parents and families of DopeTribers are getting more and more likely to join them in a bit of stoneage at this festive time, the Christmas tradition of this very podcast and the various memories that we all have of it, why low dose edibles at Christmas are the easiest way of staying consistently stoned, the benefits of pressing your own rosin as a medical grower/patient, and how it compares to other extracts and concentrates, vapo-poop as an ingredient for edibles or "Brown Dragon", the incredible choice on offer for Lorenzo and Syconot and Syconut in California for Christmas, how the future looks to us Dopetribers from the back end of an extraordinary year, and a mention for Teenage Pie and Mrs Mole's favourite strain of the year, Zootz@420's Carob weed and its origins, and a final mention for the late great Queerninja. Some of this year's festive strains: Beacon Medical (Sensi Star), Tilray Oral Solution, Old School Skunk, Girl Scout Cookies, Super Silver Haze, Runtz, Mango Rosin, Pre-98 Bubba Kush Rosin, Ghost, Blue Dream, Forbidden Fruit, Northern Lights, Acapulco Gold, Sour Diesel, OG Kush, Jungley, Carob Weed. For more info on the Cancard, see www.cancard.co.uk

The Dopetribe are back to mark the conclusion of Dopefiend.co.uk's first season of Grow Nation with a special one-off Dopefiend Quarantined episode, where the Dopefiend is joined by our very own Hudsonrulez who talks about his experience of podcasting for the first time, and how this year's lockdown grow cycle has gone, as well as TeenagePie and Mrs Mole in Halmstead, Scottobaggins and Green Lady in South London, HempressRising Jade in North London, and MangledMe in Colorado. The group chats about creative ways to stay sane in lockdown such as musican jam sessions and art, how work has changed for us DopeTribers this year, how much fear of coronavirus there is out there now compared to earlier in the year, what are the positive sides of this year of lockdown and how have our weed usage patterns been impacted and what devices have we been using, with chat about the Dynavap range and the Puffco Peak Pro, what other drugs DopeTribers have been doing to pass the time, with chat about mushrooms, acid, MDMA and ketamine, including TeenagePie's stories about being high in inappropriate places, Jade's mushroom tequila, and Scotto and Maria's Doctor Sleep Ketamine sesh, and finally we move on to the recent American election and its aftermath.

Next we discuss the flourishing crop of new conspiracy theories that have sprung up during lockdown, including the recent accounts of seeds being sent from China to addresses worldwide, the Wayfair Child Trafficking conspiracy, Tom Hanks's "suspicious" move to Greece, is Beyonce an Italian woman?, what makes us believe in conspiracy theories, what circumstances make us more susceptible to them, and why are they being marketed to us? Finally we take a look at the pricing of medical cannabis in Australia and talk to HudsonRulez about his forthcoming new grow show, Grow Nation: coming soon to Dopefiend.co.uk.

Episode 45: Coach Shawn In this powerful episode, Shawn Moak shares his amazing story of recovery. At the age of 10 Shawn started experimenting with drugs and alcohol. By 16, he had his first legal consequence after getting caught with weed. Shortly after he began taking prescription drugs and became addicted to opioid pain killers which eventually led to harder drugs like heroin and fentanyl.  After years of drug abuse, he was convinced that an early death would happen by 25... But here he is...4 and a half years clean & sober. If he can do it, so can you.https://fromtragedy.simplecast.com/https://www.facebook.com/FromTragedy/Amazing stories from people in Recovery hosted by Aaron Laine. A unique perspective from those who struggled with drugs and changed their lives. My goal is to share stories from people all over this country and share some hope for those who fell like they can't break free. If we can change our lives... so can you.

The genre is also known as Street Fiction, Gangsta Lit, Ghetto Lit, or Hip-Hop Fiction.   36.    Goines was born in Detroit, Michigan. His parents were a middle-class African-American couple that ran a laundry business. At 15 Goines lied about his age to join the Air Force, where he fought in the Korean War. During his stint in the armed forces, Goines developed an addiction to heroin that continued after his discharge from the military in the mid-1950s. To support his addiction, Goines turned to crime, this included pimping, and theft. He began writing while serving a sentence in Michigan's Jackson Penitentiary. Goines initially attempted to write westerns but decided to write urban fiction after reading Iceberg Slim's autobiography Pimp: The Story of My Life.   37.    Goines continued to write novels at an accelerated pace to support his drug addictions, sixteen books in five years, with some books taking only a month to complete. His series about Kenyatta (under the name Al C. Clark) describes a black revolutionary, who campaigns against exploitation and evils of inner-city life. On October 21, 1974, Goines and his common-law wife were discovered dead in their Detroit apartment. The police had received an anonymous phone call and responded, discovering Goines in the living room of the apartment and his common-law wife Shirley Sailor's body in the kitchen.   38.    Goines books are still popular, especially in the prison system. His books have gone on to sell millions of copies and have never been out of print, making him one of the most successful African-American authors in history.   39.    His books have been utilized in several prison literacy programs and his novel "Dopefiend" (1971) has been taught in a Rutgers University class.   40.    Other popular titles: Whoreson (1972), Black Gangster (1972), Street Players (1973), White Man's Justice, Black Man's Grief (1973), and Black Girl Lost (1974)   41.    ***Question: has anyone read his books?   42.    Donald's work was deeply influenced by Iceberg Slim.   43.    In 1961, after serving 10 months of solitary confinement in a Cook County jail, Robert Maupin (a.k.a. Slim) decided he was too old for a life of pimping and was unable to compete with younger, more ruthless pimps. In an interview with the Washington Post, he said he retired "because I was old. I did not want to be teased, tormented and brutalized by young whores."   44.    In 1967, he published two books; A memoir, "Pimp: The Story of My Life" and the novel "Trick Baby"   45.    ***Question: has anyone read his books?   46.    Iceberg and Donald's work made a HUGE impact on the youth growing up in the 70's and 80's.   47.    "Pimp" inspired the screenplay for the 1973 film "The Mack", starring Max Julien and Richard Pryor.   48.    Various other entertainers were also influenced by Goines and Slim: Dave Chappelle, Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, Katt Williams,    49.    Eddie Griffin, Ice-T, Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg, 2Pac, Ludacris, Nas, and Jay-Z, just to name a few.   50.    Iceberg and Donald also proved that a commercial "Black" book market did exist.   51.    A new "post" Hip-Hop revival of contemporary urban fiction happened at the end of the 1990s, as demand for novels authentically conveying the urban experience increased, and new business models enabled fledgling writers to more easily bring a manuscript to market and to libraries.   52.    One of the first writers in this new cycle of urban fiction was Omar Tyree, who published the novel Flyy Girl.    53.    The genre gained significant momentum in 1999 with Sister Souljah's bestseller The Coldest Winter Ever. Teri Woods's True to the Game was also published in 1999.The publishing of these three novels created a momentum of readership for urban fiction and carried that wave for years. All three books are considered classics in the renaissance of the genre.   54.    Major writers of contemporary urban fiction include Wahida Clark, Vickie Stringer, Nikki Turner, Kole Black, K'wan, Toy Styles, Kwame Teague, and the writing duo Meesha Mink & De'Nesha Diamond.   55.    ***Question: has anyone read any of these books?   56.    The reach of urban fiction into a large youth readership is undeniable today, particularly among adolescent girls.   57.    Critics and supporters are pleased that Black youth are reading. But some have mixed feelings about promoting literacy by any means necessary. “To some extent, there is an exposure to a part of urban culture that has rarely been explored in a way that it is now…which can be a starting point for civic dialogues,” offers Tracey Michae’l Lewis, who teaches writing and literature at Community College of Philadelphia and Philadelphia University. “Unfortunately, we have to ask ourselves, ‘What is this costing us?’”   58.    Scholars have differing opinions on Urban Fiction. Some believe that it is low reading, like a trashy book, that is not of high quality. Those who believe this think that prisoners and adolescent should be reading more elevated works.   59.    On the other hand, are scholars who say that African Americans appear to be reading street lit to find themselves and escape themselves at the same time. Some readers just enjoy losing themselves in portrayals of lavish lifestyles, racy sex and ride-or-die dramas of the streets, while others enjoy the genre for its reflective qualities.   60.    [Contributing source: Debating Black “Street Lit,” New Urban Fiction May 31, 2008 / Joe / African Americans, book review, urban]   61.    ***Question: Is urban art (books/films/music) really and truly a problem?   62.    ###The Music Scene   63.    6 - "Shining Star", Earth, Wind & Fire   64.    13 - "Lovin' You", Minnie Riperton   65.    14 - "Kung Fu Fighting", Carl Douglas   66.    18 - "He Don't Love You (Like I Love You)", Tony Orlando and Dawn   67.    20 - "Pick Up the Pieces", Average White Band   68.    21 - "The Hustle", Van McCoy & the Soul City Symphony   69.    22 - "Lady Marmalade", Labelle   70.    23 - "Why Can't We Be Friends", War   71.    24 - "Love Won't Let Me Wait", Major Harris   72.    25 - "Boogie On Reggae Woman", Stevie Wonder   73.    27 - "Fight the Power", The Isley Brothers   74.    30 - "Fire", Ohio Players   75.    ***Vote:    76.    Jan: Fire, The Ohio Players   77.    Feb: Kung Fu Fighting and Other Great Love Songs, Carl Douglas   78.    Feb:  New and Improved, The Spinners   79.    Feb: Do It ('Til You're Satisfied), B.T.

Grew up immersed in the music scene of her parents. Even though she didn't plan on a singing career, she took a summer job singing with a band in 1972. Albums soon followed, as well as two Grammy Awards for her debut album, Inseparable (1975). After a bout with addiction, Cole returned in the 1990s with Unforgettable... with Love, featuring renditions of songs previously sung by her father. Cole died in 2015 at the age of 65.   108.    Early Career: She met the writing and producing team of Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy in 1975. The duo helped Cole land a deal with Capitol Records and, later that year, create the album Inseparable. With hit songs such as "This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)," the album exploded onto the music scene, earning the young starlet her first two Grammy Awards—for best new artist and best female R&B performance.   109.    Cole's career took flight: she turned out four gold and two platinum records / in 1979, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame / Cole hit a lull in her career in the early 1980s due to her struggle with drug addiction / in 1991, she released Unforgettable... with Love. and won a Grammy for album of the year / in 2008, "Still Unforgettable" won another Grammy for best traditional pop vocal album.   110.    Personal Life and Death: The death of her father, when she was 15 yrs. old, greatly affected her and put a strain on Cole's relationship with her mother. In her 2000 autobiography, Angel on my Shoulder, Cole exposed her depression and heavy drug use throughout her career. She began using in college. She overcame her addiction in 1983. In 2008, Cole was diagnosed with hepatitis C, a disease of the liver. She passed 7 from congestive heart failure on December 31, 2015.   111.    Legacy: "Cole wasn’t the next Aretha. She was the simply the MOST versatile vocalist of the soul-pop era" - Written by Keith Murphy (@murphdogg29) BET 1/2016  112.    Cole could do Chaka’s “Tell Me Something Good.”. But could Chaka do “Our Love.”? Cole could do Gladys Knight & the Pips’ “Midnight Train to Georgia.” But could Gladys do “Good Morning Heartache,’? Cole could do Whitney Houston’s “How Will I Know.” But could Houston do “Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds” or “Something Got A Hold On Me”?   113.    Audio Clips   114.    ***Question: Silver spoon or deserved?   115.    ###Key Artist: Richard Franklin Lennox Thomas Pryor III (35yrs old): Actor, Comedian, Screenwriter (1940–2005)   116.    Born and raised in Peoria, Illinois, he became one of the most influential comedians in the history of comedy. Few comics today will talk about their own careers without mentioning the inspiration they received from Pryor. A talented yet controversial man, most people either love him unconditionally or hate him passionately.    117.    Early Life: For much of his youth, Pryor was left in his grandmother's care and lived in the brothel she ran. He also experienced sexual abuse as a child, according to his official website. To step away from the grim reality of his life, Pryor found solace in going to the movies. Expelled from school at age 14, Pryor ended up working a string of jobs until he joined the military in 1958. He served in the army for only two years, as he was discharged for fighting with another soldier.   118.    Early Career: Returning home, he found work as a stand-up comic throughout the Midwest, playing African-American clubs in such cities as East St. Louis and Pittsburgh. In 1963, Pryor moved to New York City. The following year, he made his television debut on the variety show On Broadway Tonight. Guest appearances followed on such programs as The Merv Griffin Show and The Ed Sullivan Show. At the time, his act was modeled after two African-American comedians he admired, Bill Cosby and Dick Gregory.   119.    In 1960, while playing in Las Vegas at the Flamingo Hotel, he had a panic attack and walked off stage. He wanted to give voice to the winos, pimps, dealers, and other characters in his head. He retreated to Berkeley, California, where he met a variety of counterculture figures, including Black Panther leader Huey P. Newton.   120.    Mainstream Success: In the early 1970s, Pryor scored several successes as an actor and comedian. He earned positive reviews for his supporting role in the Billie Holiday biopic Lady Sings the Blues (1972), starring Diana Ross. In 1973, he netted his first Emmy Award nomination (outstanding writing achievement in comedy, variety) for his work on The Lily Tomlin Show. The following year, Pryor took home his first Emmy (best writing in comedy, variety) for another collaboration with Lily Tomlin: the comedy special Lily (1973). Pryor also wrote for such shows as The Flip Wilson Show and Sanford and Son, which starred comedian Redd Foxx. Continuing to thrive professionally, Pryor co-starred with Max Julien in the film "The Mack" 91973) and worked with Mel Brooks on the screenplay for the western spoof Blazing Saddles (1974). His own work was also attracting a lot of attention. Despite its X-rated content, his third comedy albums sold extremely well and won the Grammy Award for Best Comedy Recordings in 1974, 1975, and 1976.   121.    Fans of all racial backgrounds were captivated by Pryor's comedy, which consisted of situational and character-driven humor in place of straightforward jokes. He poked fun at the white establishment and explored the racial divide. By the late 1970s, Pryor had a thriving career as a stand-up comic and movie actor.   122.    Audio Clips   123.    Troubled Personal Life: Pryor had a long history of substance abuse and stormy relationships. He got into legal trouble in the early 1970s for failing to file tax returns. / In 1978, Pryor had another run-in with the law after he shot his estranged wife's car. / Pryor’s health began to suffer, and he endured his first heart attack in 1978 / In June 1980, after several days of freebasing cocaine, he lit himself on fire in a suicide attempt /    124.    Later Years: In 1986, Pryor was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a disease that affects the central nervous system. By the early 1990s, the once-kinetic Pryor was confined to a wheelchair. The comedian wrote the autobiography Pryor Convictions: And Other Life Sentences with Todd Gold, earning critical acclaim upon its release in 1995. In 2001, Pryor remarried Jennifer Lee. He spent his final years with her at his California home. Outside of performing, Pryor was an advocate for animal rights and opposed animal testing. He established Pryor's Planet, a charity for animals.   125.    Death and Legacy: On December 10, 2005, Pryor died of a heart attack at a Los Angeles area hospital. In addition to providing audiences with both hilarious and moving performances, he paved the way for African-American comedians like Eddie Murphy and Chris Rock to make their mark. "Pryor started it all. He made the blueprint for the progressive thinking of black comedians, unlocking that irreverent style," comedian and filmmaker Keenen Ivory Wayans explained to The New York Times.   126.    ***Question: Given his EXTEMELY troubled personal life, does he deserve praise, pity, or pilloried (ridiculed publicly)?   127.    ###Vote for Key Artist:   128.    ###The Movie Scene    129.    Dolemite: Played by Rudy Ray Moore, who co-wrote the film. Moore had developed the alter-ego as a stand-up comedian and released several comedy albums using this persona. The film has attained cult status. Plot: Dolemite is a pimp and nightclub owner who is serving 20 years in prison after being set up by a rival, Willie Green. One day, his friend and fellow pimp Queen Bee helps him get out of jail, and plots with him to get revenge on Green.   130.    Mahogany: A romantic drama directed by Berry Gordy and produced by Motown Productions.  Mahogany stars Diana Ross as Tracy Chambers, a struggling fashion design student who rises to become a popular fashion designer in Rome. Fresh from the success of Lady Sings the Blues, this film served as Ross' follow-up feature film.   131.    Let's Do It Again is an action crime comedy directed by and starring Sidney Poitier and co-starring Bill Cosby and Jimmie Walker. The film, directed by Poitier, is about blue-collar workers who decide to rig a boxing match to raise money for their fraternal lodge. The song of the same name by The Staple Singers was featured as the opening and ending theme of the movie, and as a result, the two have become commonly associated with each other.  This was the second film pairing of Poitier and Cosby following Uptown Saturday Night, and followed by A Piece of the Action (1977). Of the three, Let's Do It Again has been the most successful both critically and commercially. [FYI...Calvin Lockhart was Biggie Smalls and Jimmie Walker as Bootney Farnsworth]   132.    ###Key Movie: Cooley High: [My Favorite movie of all-time!]   133.    Summary: "...But "Cooley High" was no exploitation film. Unlike the other black stories being told on screen in the early '70s, this one wasn't about crime, racism, drugs, vengeance, or black-power heroes and heroines who stuck it to the Man. It was just about teens doing what teens do -- hanging out, going to school, going to parties, hooking up, cruising the streets, and dreaming of the future. Yes, there was petty crime and some tragic violence, but they weren't the focus of the story. It was just a slice of life, both specific and universal. As a result, "Cooley High" marked the beginning of the shift in African-American cinema away from blaxploitation toward more diverse stories of black life, although it would take another 20 years for that transition to be fully realized." - 'Cooley High' Is the Most Influential Movie You've Never Seen, by Gary Susman, moviefone.com   134.    Audio Clips   135.    In film, coming of age is a genre of teen films. Coming-of-age films focus on the psychological and moral growth or transition of a protagonist from youth to adulthood. Personal growth and change are an important characteristic of this genre, which relies on dialogue and emotional responses, rather than action. The main character is typically male, around mid-teen and the story is often told in the form of a flashback.   136.    Films in this subgenre include Bambi (1942), Oliver! (1967), American Graffiti (1973), Breaking Away (1979), The Last American Virgin (1982), The Breakfast Club (1985), Stand by Me (1986), Almost Famous (2000), the Harry Potter series (2001–2011), and Moonlight (2016)   137.    ***Question: The movie dealt with friendships, loyalty, betrayal, forgiveness, and regrets. Do you have any personal stories to tell that deal with these issues?   138.    ###The TV Scene: The Jefferson’s   139.    Sample review: Parents need to know that this classic '70s/'80s sitcom -- which follows an African-American couple who move to an upper-class Manhattan apartment in a primarily Caucasian neighborhood -- combines strong racial stereotypes with some positive representations of African Americans and interracial relationships. George Jefferson is stubborn, mean-spirited, and bigoted, and the show uses strong words like "damn" and racial epithets like "honky." The show is generally mild by today's standards, but George's inappropriate behavior and language may send iffy messages to younger viewers.   140.    For many black Americans, the news of actor Sherman Hemsley’s death represents a two-fold loss of both an incredible talent and the captivating character that was George Jefferson. By portraying the outspoken and incredibly honest Mr. Jefferson, who was never too shy to speak candidly about race relations in the seventies, Hemsley and his cast mates had a major effect on American television through the hit sitcom “The Jefferson’s.”    141.    As the longest-running series with a predominantly African American cast, the show was one of the first to portray a successful black family, paving the way for future sitcoms like “The Cosby Show” and “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.” It was also the first series to prominently feature an interracial couple with the characters Helen and Tom Willis, using its makeup of colorful personalities to create humorous commentary about race in the United States at the time.    142.    Making its debut in 1975, the show mimicked its parent series “All In The Family,” but instead focused on a black household. George Jefferson displayed his distrust of white people and shared his views on race in America with a fervor that rivaled Archie Bunker’s comical, yet stinging, opinions about minorities. The show explored issues rarely discussed on television, and the characters’ frequent use of racially charged terms like “nigger” and “honky” placed the series in a class all its own. Although George and his wife Louise “Weezy” Jefferson’s sudden success catapulted them into a predominantly white world, they represented the epitome of black culture. Even the show’s popular theme song was reminiscent of the gospel tunes often heard in black churches.    143.    “The Jeffersons” use of confrontational humor and candid commentary that helped ease the discussion of topics like race and class on American television (and beyond) is the cornerstone of the show’s legacy. Its characters opened doors for future black actors, and its success proved that African American sitcoms did, in fact, resonate with general audiences.    144.    ***Open Comments:   145.    Legacy: We also recognized the familiar in George's willingness to put on airs if it meant seizing an advantage against a rival or gaining one from a potential patron, backing down only when it became clear that his honor or family's well-being was at risk. It was easy to mistake George's hustle as symptoms of a gratuitous and crass materialism, but, his endless striving, the relentless quest to impress the Wittendales of the world or to get into a posh tennis club, even though he had no clue or interest in the sport, was always about survival. Money, in George's mind, represented the best defense against discrimination. "Let me tell you something about people," George tells his old adversary Archie Bunker at a cocktail party. "That bartender's willing to work for me because if you got enough green in your pocket, then black becomes his favorite color." - What 'The Jeffersons' Taught Me About Being an American. SHERVIN MALEKZADEH  AUG 7, 2012   146.    "...And the previous, say, eight years or so were characterized by efforts to sort of break down institutional racism in America from the Civil Rights Act to desegregation in schools. And so, you had this whole level of black folks who were just being held back by institutional racism, and once those bonds started to break, they could build businesses. They could get great jobs, and they could move into the middle class and upper middle class in a way that they hadn't been able to do before. And "The Jeffersons" in its own way, even though it was also a very typical sitcom, very broad, it also talked about those elements. You know, George had to deal with his friends from the old neighborhood. They would come to visit and embarrass him because he was trying to impress the new wealthy people that he lived with in his new high-rise. And, you know, there was always that tension, and I think some black folks were going through that in their own lives. They could recognize a bit of that in what George Jefferson was doing. - Heard on All Things Considered, NPR   147.    ***Question: Was the show too unrealistic/out of reach?   148.    ***Vote: 1975 biggest legacy?
