Join Dburt and Captain Kirk this Wednesday (7:30pm EST) as they check their "tricorders" and extrapolate the latest news events that have occurred during this past (mid) week. Our sensors are detecting a forthcoming discussion on the following topics: yet more NFL shenanigans (Adrian Peterson child abuse allegations; Rihanna vs the NFL; sponsors vs the NFL) ; a new biography is released detailing the trials, tribulations and triumphs of Dr. Bill Cosby; progressive filmmaker/documentarian, Michael Moore posits that President Obama's legacy will be solely related to being the first Black president; Dburt has concerns about scientific experimentation involving human brain cells being implanted in mice with claims of increased intelligence; some Chicagoans are protesting against police shootings of three Black men in just as many weeks (no protests for the more frequent non police related gun violence though?); the story of Django actress, Daniele Watts reportedly being profiled and handcuffed by LAPD for publicly kissing her White boyfriend may be falling apart based upon further scrutiny and lastly, Academy award winning actress, Lupita Nyongo's message of being comfortable in one's own skin to the Sesame Street audience makes her even more endearing.
