Ep.101 - "Australian-Style", Black TV Writers & The Adenugas

In a week where:Roughly a quarter of the Pantanal Wetlands in Brazil has burned from wildfires this year.Jacinda Ardern's Labour Party waxes the NZ Election, giving her the first majority government in over a decade.No.10 broke precedent and snubbed Britain’s first black archbishop (John Sentamu) for a peerage because it says the House of Lords is too large, but it made room for Ian Botham, Claire Fox and Theresa May’s husband.Teofimo Lopez upsets Vasily Lomachencko to become undisputed Lightweight Champion.Officials begin a second excavation searching for mass graves from the 1921 Tulsa massacre.In Life - (9:58) So the government decided to be patronising and not keep it 100 by saying we're leaving with an "Australian-Style" relationship with the EU. So I decided to bite and ask WTF is "Australian-Style" even though I fully know the answer.In the first of two Film/TV segments - (20:53) We have solid data on the percentage of British TV Writers that identify as black and the percentage of non-white studio execs & series producers... It's not good.In the 2nd Film/TV segment - (31:45) Corona has been a benefit for a lot of entities. One of the obvious beneficiaries are Netflix who's subscriber count has ballooned this year. But how long will that and their overall dominance last?Lastly, in Music - (43:09) I had a thought about the Adenuga family last week, asking myself "has there been a more creatively successful family in recent memory?" And funny enough, a little profile came up, all about the Adenuga's and how they're just so damn good at what they do individually.Thank you for listening!
