In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

Steve Preston is the CEO of Goodwill Industries. Though Goodwill is known for big stores where people can donate clothes and buy them secondhand, those stores are just the first level of what Goodwill Industries are about. Those stores fund an international organization that provides job training, employment placement services and other community-based programs for people who face barriers in their employment. Steve joins Jay to discuss the ways Goodwill Industries support veterans and individuals who lack job experience, an education, or face employment challenges, such as those people who are formerly incarcerated.

What a week!!!! There's so much for us to talk about. From the 93rd Academy Awards (2:38) taking place and the shenanigans they brought to the table, to the finale of the show we've been covering every week, 'FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER' (1:08:41), there was a lot going on. Not to mention the somewhat anticipated movie adaption of the popular video game 'MORTAL KOMBAT‘ (46:57), and the now highest grossing anime movie of all time 'DEMON SLAYER: MUGEN TRAIN' (1:00:17). Both hit theaters and are doing great. We also discuss the passing of Shock G (2:40:18), the legendary rapper and the mastermind of Digital Underground who brought us 'The Humpty Dance' and the career of Tupac.…

'The Falcon and the Winter Soldier' has concluded so we've compiled all of our previous reviews of every episode from the series. On the March 22nd pod, we kicked things off by recapping the series premiere, 'New World Order', which catches us up with Sam Wilson after he forfeits the mantle of Captain America given to him by Steve Rogers (2:14). In 'The Star-Spangled Man', we're properly introduced to John Walker as the new Captain America, and learn about Isaiah Bradley, a veteran super soldier who fought the Winter Soldier in the Korean War (44:51). Then, we discuss the return of characters like Baron Zemo and Sharon Carter as the team travels to the criminal sanctuary city, Madripoor, in 'Power Broker' (1:25:24). 'The Whole World Is Watching' puts Sam, Bucky, and others on a dangerous collision course with the Flash Smashers and members of Wakanda's Dora Milaje, causing us to analyze every character's personal motivation (1:52:10). The penultimate episode, 'Truth', unpacks Isaiah Bradley's dark history as a super soldier, leading us to a discussion about the treatment and erasure of Black soldiers in America, and Sam's journey toward taking up the mantle (2:37:02). After the events of episode 5, we break down the chaotic finale, 'One World, One People', and the momentous moment of Sam Wilson officially becoming Captain America (3:38:00). Finally, we look back and share our thoughts on the series as a whole, and what the future may hold for its characters (4:26:10).…

Welcome to the second part of the season 5 premiere of 2 Black Nerds! It's been a couple of weeks since our last regular episode, and we have some major movies to discuss. First up is the highly anticipated sequel from John Krasinski, A Quiet Place Part II . We'll explore whether it effectively follows up its acclaimed predecessor. Of course, we also have to discuss Disney's latest live-action film, Cruella . While Emma Stone and Emma Thompson delivered strong performances, we'll delve into the overall quality of the movie. Although other films from the universe have been released, it's been four years since The Conjuring specifically graced our screens. We'll discuss how the newest installment, The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It , measures up against the already legendary series. Last but not least, we'll dive into the drama and musical In The Heights . This was a film we were both eagerly awaiting. We'll share our thoughts on Lin-Manuel Miranda, Anthony Ramos, the music, the cultural representation, and the controversial topic of colorism surrounding the movie. And as always, we'll touch on some news. This is 2 Black Nerds, season 5. Rest in peace, Clarence Williams III and Ned Beatty.…
We're back and we're here to review episode 2 of Loki. The episode is titled "The Variant" and it begins to pick up some steam from where we left off the in the first episode.

Unfortunately we were unable to have a regular episode this week, but we're back again with another discussion of the latest episode of Marvel's 'Loki'. This weeks episode is titled "Lamentis".

We get a ton of dialogue between Loki and the Variant in this change of scenery as well as some decent action sequences. Tune in to figure out what we thought about the episode.…
"The Nexus Event" is the title for episode 4 of Loki and the energy of the episode definitely matches the title. The TVA, B-15, and Mobius are still searching for Loki and Sylvie and tension is getting high. There's a ton to unpack and so much to discuss this episode. It's getting weird and we love it.…

Happy Black History Month! We have a decent amount to talk about in this week's episode. Johnny Knoxville, Steve-O, and the gang are back with a farewell film in 'JACKASS FOREVER' (1:48). Roland Emmerich is also back with his latest big budget disaster film, dealing with space this time, in 'MOONFALL' (15:25). We also got the chance to check on some films on streaming. One movie that has been getting a ton of buzz in awardS land with 'CODA' (35:59) on Apple TV+, and another film dealing with some heavy subject matters starring Jenna Ortega on HBO MAX with 'THE FALLOUT' (52:08). On the TV side of things, Jordan got the chance to check out some documentaries dealing with some big name stars. The Lifetime documentary, 'JANET JACKSON.' (1:04:29), detailing her upbringing and career. And on showtime, the documentary 'WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT COSBY' (1:14:43), discussing not only why Bill Cosby was so successful but diving into his life as a sexual predator. In Desmund's latest journey revisiting a black TV show, he wrapped up watching the classic sitcom 'THE JAMIE FOXX SHOW' (1:21:29). We also had to take the time to discuss the last 2 episodes of "THE BOOK OF BOBA FETT' (1:26:00). The direction has changed and we need to figure out if it's working or alarming. 2BlackNerds.com (Song: Doesn't Really Matter x Janet Jackson)…

Happy Black History Month! The spiritual reboot and reimagining to the classic black sitcom 'The Fresh-Prince of Bel-Air', 'BEL-AIR' (1:25) has aired on Peacock, and we discuss how we feel about the first 4 episodes. 'PEACEMAKER' (22:15) season 1 has come to a conclusion and we wrap up our thoughts of the last 3 episodes. The latest blockbuster from Sony that isn't Spider-Man related (at least not completely) has hit theaters with the video game movie 'UNCHARTED' (56:15) starring Tom Holland. Also Jennifer Lopez and Owen Wilson have teamed up in a new romantic comedy 'MARRY ME' (1:19:10), both in theaters and on Peacock. We also talk about how some big TV shows have announced their final seasons. 2BlackNerds.com (Song: Diet Coke x Pusha T)…

Black History Month may be over, but black history is everlasting. First in the episode, a well known slasher franchise makes a return but on Netflix this time with the new 'TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE' (1:36). We also got the chance to check out a horror film we've been meaning to see for a while called 'ANTLERS' (13:57). Jordan also got the chance to check out the new spy-action film with a stacked cast of women in 'THE 355' (26:02). In TV land, we catch up with the new hotness, a comedy created by the talented Quinta Brunson in 'ABBOTT ELEMENTARY' (35:36), and on a darker flip side we discuss the 'EUPHORIA' season 2 finale (47:25). There's a new video game on the block that the masses have been raving about, but it's also been the most anticipated game for 2 years. 'ELDEN RING' (1:03:50) has finally arrived and Desmund has been playing it. Also this past weekend, the SAG AWARDS (1:12:42) took place. Do some of the winners change the landscape of the Academy Awards? I guess we'll figure out soon. 2BlackNerds.com (Song: Dragonball Durag x Thundercat)…

Another video game movie has hit theaters with 'SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 2' (1:34), does it follow the video game curse of being bad or retain the charm of the first film? Michael Bay is back! Not that he hasn't been making movies but his movies have seemed absent from being good for a while. 'AMBULANCE' (16:23) may be his return to his original self. In TV land, Apple TV+ may have a hit on their hands with the new show 'SEVERANCE' (34:32). Season 4 of 'THE MARVELOUS MRS MAISEL' (43:47) has concluded recently, 'GROWN-ISH' Season 4 (50:21) has marked an important milestone in the show, and we also talk about Episode 3 and 4 of Season 3 of 'ATLANTA' (55:27). 2BlackNerds.com (Song: Fast Car x Syd)…
