Ep.30 - Central Park Five, NBA Finals & Sudan

from "What's Good?" W/ Charlie Taylor · host The 5th Element Podcast Network

New Music, same intro, better quality show!In a week where: Seb Coe unveils the IAAF's new name and logo - 'World Athletics'. Justin Bieber challenges Tom Cruise to an MMA fight.We begin with Film/TV (6:50) where after the premiere of Ava DuVernay's "When They See Us", a Limited Series about the Central Park Five, people are starting to hold the real-life prosecutors to account. One of which, Linda Fairstein, has lost her publishing deal in the aftermath of the show. Because the show has killed her cash flow, she takes to The Wall Street Journal to write an Op-Ed defending her choices and besmirching the show. But the whole thing is pointless because she agrees that the man who actually committed to the crime cleared the five. Wasted words simply because she's lost cash. Life comes at you fast...In Sports (24:30) The NBA Finals is still going after the Golden State Warriors pulled back a game to make the series 3-2 against the Toronto Raptors. A lot happened in Game 5. From the close game to the Raptors fans cheering after Kevin Durant ruptured his Achilles. This whole series is ugly and I want it to mercifully end... But I still want GS to win...In the first of two Life segments, (35:10) in the run-up to the Conservative Leadership election, two MP's in Michael Gove & Andrea Leadsom have admitted that they took drugs at one point in their lives. I'm not sure if they're trying to relate to us or something, but the fact that they're terrible at their jobs is more than enough for me to not want any of them to be the next PM.And lastly, (43:50) I knew I had to talk about Sudan and all the tragedies going on there. But I also wanted to talk about the 2nd Anniversary of Grenfell, so I focused on Sudan because there are many people spreading the word, but I want people to take another step and either donate or educate themselves on the reasons why there are massacres and why these atrocities link to other problems in the Middle East.Thank you for listening!
