Ep 142 Michael B Whoren
from Black and Snerdy Podcast Hosted by Ode and Mo "Kid" Licorish
Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo "Kid" Licorish (@licorishislegit) open with tributes and national headlines—Val Kilmer’s recent passing and a tragic helicopter crash over the Hudson—before steering into music and industry news. They lay out Kendrick Lamar’s new video for “Luther,” noting the Luther Vandross sample and the song’s surge to the top of the charts, then trace Missy Elliott’s Coachella set and why her catalog and influence were front‑and‑center over the weekend. The hosts map how culture and commerce collide: they discuss box‑office takeaways from the Minecraft film, Ryan Coogler’s high‑profile vampire project featuring Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo, and the fallout when interview platforms intersect with accused figures—Keke Palmer’s decision to pull a Jonathan Majors episode gets unpacked, with emphasis on platform responsibility and survivor care. They also pause on a disturbing domestic‑violence clip (Quadarius Davis and Juliana Monet), treating the footage and public reaction as a case study in accountability and online evidence.
