We were able to end Black History Month on a great note! With some very significant wins for the night, were they really a win for the culture? Let's dive into the significance of these wins for the culture. Our guest Keemz shares his thoughts and music with us on tonight's episode.
The play cousins discuss just about everything as they welcome cultural critic, New York Times best selling author and tech genius Luvvie Ajayi. Luvvie is on a mission to make the Motherland our primary travel destination. The ladies also discuss that Cohen testimony, Jussie, R Kelly and #OscarsSoBlack.
Greetings, AFROnerdists! Again, let's dive in....check out a new episode of our Mid-Week in Review (MWIR) podcast airing Wednesdays at 7pm eastern. Oh and each broadcast is engineered by the Afronerd Radio machine. Listen as we wax prolific about the following issues: our thoughts about this past weekend's Oscars (Spike Lee, Spiderverse, Black Panther, Beale Street, Trump's comments, Green Book controversy, etc); it appears that actor, Yahya Abdul-Mateen will be a double duty franchisee with gigs in Aquaman and Jordan Peele's The Candyman; a male college student successfully settles with his university for being too drunk to consent to relations he had with a female friend (he should play lotto); another article explores the idea of a Black Superman film per Michael B, Jordan's Oprah interview (and rightfully, not Clark Kent); more Democratic presidential candidates are discussing #ADOS (indirectly) and the idea of reparations (sort of); the folks responsible for CBS' reworking of Sherlock Holmes on Elementary have submitted a pilot for a new Frankenstein series with Bull's Saidah Arrika Ekulona cast as a series regular; and after The Oscars and the aforementioned Black Supes mention, The Hollywood Reporter discusses the future of Black Superhero films.

The Reid ladies are joined by honorary "cousin" Chris Witherspoon as a guest-host. They talk about that Rachael Dolezal's Netflix documentary, #OscarsSoBlack, and wonder who the hell decided to release A Wrinkle In Time so close to Black Panther??! Of course there are waaaaay to many cocktails, and a reenactment from the Oscar Red Carpet... cue the shade.
With all the tension growing in Hollywood, its hard to say how this year's Academy Awards will go but we're betting on a scripted shit show as usual. Listen in as we make our picks and break down who actually deserves the Oscar on merit and who will be making five minute speeches on political correctness! Also in this episode, we shit on Nintendo's latest attempt to sell their recycled Pokemon cards with the release of Labo, the savagery of NFL football fans, and we make some startling revelations in another edition of Reddit's Today I Learned thread.
