Reconvening on Saturday's Grindhouse-@6pm
from Afronerd Radio · host Afronerd Radio
Please accept our apologies for Wednesday's preempted show but we promise to make up for it during tonight's broadcast. Welcome to the Grindhouse, folks! First up, there's The Comic Shoppe featuring Capt. Kirk, Daryll B. and Dburt airing at 6pm. The issues open for discussion are: more casting news-actor, Paul Bettany as The Vision for Avengers: Age of Ultron and (unconfirmed)-is Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson the new Green Lantern?; with the advent of the new Harley Quinn and Loki books, can we expect more villain centric books and are they more difficult to write?; Comic Book Resources is highlighting Black creator comics for BHM-discussing The Inheritors #1; our thoughts on online retailer, Amazon, entering into the video gaming business and lastly, 4th Letter's David Brothers interview comic book historian and African Studies professor, Qiana Whitted. Next up, Afronerd Radio airs at 7pm! The topics being placed in our "cyber centrifuge" are: legendary comedian, Jerry Sienfeld has some rather unfunny thoughts about diversity when it comes to his Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee show; we continue last week's discussion regarding Black Grassroots activism versus the Obama Adminstration; a recent Yoga blog entry seemed to erupt into a controversy centered around race; "V 2 V" technology maybe here to stay in the next wave of new automobiles; Vanity Fair finally has an ethnically diverse Hollywood issue and cover (but is it too little to late); George Zimmerman wants to box Kanye West (really?) as well as various other anecdotal, Blue Area and Black History Month highlights. Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620. Excelsior!
