And so it begins….AGAIN!  Check out the latest episode of Afronerd Radio’s Grindhouse-airing every Sunday at 6pm eastern.  Join your friendly neighborhood broadcasters, Dburt and Claire Lanay as they bring their own unique brand of pop culture analyses while discussing the following topics:  with grand expectations for S3 of Netflix’ popular Umbrella Academy, actor Justin H. Min’s subdued portrayal of the Ben Hargreeves character appears to have paid off for the long haul for the next installment;  uh oh…here we go-the highly anticipated Avatar: The Last Airbender live-action reboot appears to have hit a snag with the exit of the original creators, Michael DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko from the Netflix project; leave it to Marge Simpson to get into the political fray in defense of Sen. Kamala Harris:

   

And speaking of Sen. Harris, never let it be said that racism wanes, especially not during this very polarized zeitgeist! The mayor of Luray, Va recently apologized for likening the VP hopeful to “Aunt Jemima,“; the Washington Post even had an article giving historical context to the mayor’s racist language and the small town he presides over;  just when I thought that actor/comedian, Jamie Foxx was no longer attached to the Spawn reboot project (I stand corrected), it seems that he is still sticking to a “capes” theme via the new Netflix release, Project Power, co-starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt:

Did we forget to mention the return of the G4 TV gaming network?;  more on Disney’s animated Owl House and its controversial (re: appropriateness for a children’s series) and groundbreaking inclusion of a bisexual lead character;  there’s an “entanglement” joke somewhere…..reports are surfacing that Will Smith’s production company, Westbrook, Inc had 10 staffers testing positive for COVID-19; and now President Trump is causing national agita regarding the efficacy of USPS and mail-in ballot voting (it just never stops);  so Dburt’s dad while perusing a 1958 Ebony Magazine article, recognized a longtime customer who was a famed NASA engineer (unbeknownst to the Oracle); as predicted by our own Uncanny Daryll B., DC Comics publisher, Jim Lee formally addresses the shrinking of his monthly comics line;  wow….we may have to get director, Justin Simien (Dear White People) back on the show to talk up his new satirical horror comedy film, Bad Hair scheduled for Halloween season release on Hulu:

And lastly, with the way social media already “grades” or monitors human behavior (sort of), how long will it take before the U.S. adopts a social credit system similar to China?  Call in LIVE at 508-645-0100.
