We seem to be on a Vietnam kick with a couple of our movie choices lately. Oliver Stone’s 1989 adaptation of Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic’s autobiography of the same name, recounting his journey from a combat-thirsty young man to a disabled anti-war activist, is worthy of the two academy awards it won. Join us for a discussion about the film, this American folly, and its lingering effects on our society today.

In an episode of The Walking Dead that’s good enough to please no one, it’s all about whether you’re going to make Negan a martyr and whether Daryl and Rick can climb out of their desperate pit of emotion.

This week we take a look at Ryan Coogler’s first feature film, Fruitvale Station, about the 2009 murder of Oscar Grant. It is competently directed by Coogler but the impeccable performances by recognizable names such as Octavia Spencer and Michael B. Jordan, as well as its tragically-evergreen relevance, are what really make the film a must-see.

Right now there’s a writer sitting somewhere in Georgia, maybe Hollywood, or more likely hell, thinking about what a great metaphor this episode’s tomato was. It’s probably the same writer who was self-impressed when they decided that Gabriel was an ‘A’. Both of those writers suck.

After we announced last week that we’d be covering Fruitvale Station, Spike Lee went and dropped his latest joint, Da 5 Bloods, on Netflix, to rave reviews. So, we’ve decided to postpone Fruitvale Station for a week in favor of timely coverage of what’s sure to be a strong contender come Oscar season. Join us for the podcast to hear our what we thought.

We’re back for the 2nd episode of the season, in which we witness the communities attempting to come together to build a bridge to a brighter future. This feels awfully meta.. and it somehow seems doomed from the start. Join us for a discussion of S09E02 – The Bridge.

We’re (reluctantly) back! And while it has been 2 years, we still remember most of the characters’ (nick)names. There’s a lot of work to do to pave over the (awful) plotting of the previous seasons but Angela and the crew are doing their best. Is it good (enough)?
