Lucifer@Netflix, No More Jurisprudence? Grand Piton Anime & More -The Grind 6pm
from Afronerd Radio · host Afronerd Radio
Happy Mother's Day, folks! You know the drill-It's the Grindhouse podcast and it airs every Sunday at 6pm eastern. The topics this week are: Lucifer gets a new life at Netflix with 10 episodes. Will it get a fifth season? Is it simple irony that two noted black criminal defense attorneys (Christopher Darden and Harvard Law professor, Ronald Sullivan) are being ostracized and losing gigs for doing their jobs...defending people?; an impressive Caribbean themed anime project, The Mighty Grand Piton hit the cyberwebs with a bang; Ayesha Curry caused a bit of a stir with her confessional for wanting male attention in the same way that her superstar, husband, Stephen has legions of female groupies; Why is Al Ewing's The Immortal Hulk so popular (and valuable?). And will this "horror" translation ever make to the MCU?; Unfortunately, there are still more race stories (a white female MD police officer uses the n-word against Black men accused of loitering; a black HS student is suing her school for passing her over for salutatorian for a white student with a lower GPA); And lastly, don't EVER question Afronerd's commitment toward rooting out neo-minstrelsy..enter Loqueesha (sigh). Call LIVE at 646-915-9620.
