Da 5 Bloods & 8:46
After a conversation about the goings on in the past week(huge protests, CHAZ/CHOP, lynchings), we take a step back and get back to movies with a discussion on Dave Chappelle’s new "special" and the newest Spike Lee Joint, DA 5 BLOODS. We talk about the cost of war, brotherhood, boomers, history, and so much more as we dive DEEP; plus, a couple of other numbers-based movie recommendations for people to check out.

A Conversation About Racism - Part 3
We finish up the Asian/Black community dynamic convo from Part 2. We get words of wisdom and encouragement from our brother @Tweets_By_Zo as well as a bit of the goings on in Philly and Seattle. We get into the Bill Simmons/Ryen Russillo dumpster fire, DeRay McKesson’s #8Can’tWait, Queen Kimberly Jones’ (@kimlatricejones) fire. Drew Brees and Wendell Pierce (@WendellPierce), and the deafening silence being heard from prominent podcast communities that fired Joe up (a little bit).

Customer Reviews
Intelligent, diverse opinions on media
I really appreciate Joe and Shayla's perspectives on film and TV. Too many podcasts just give you a white perspective. Here you got a Black American and Aurstrailian Jew. They are intelligent funny and seem like a good couple to hang with which is the best you can hope for with a podcast.
Love it!
Excellent podcast! I cant wait for the next one. Don’t miss out!!
Best podcast in the world
