In the second half of this episode, Neil speaks with Nick, an actor, comic, barista, and gamer from Jamaica. They discuss the utility of music for actors' emotional work, the supposed gayness of befriending women, visiting Wisconsin as a Black man, showing Jordan Peele's Get Out (2017) to a white family, Neil's favorite Afro-Surrealist trope, Timberlake Wertenbaker's Our Country's Good (1988) and humor's ability to humanize, the U.S. retaining live aliens, the intimacy of one-night stands versus that of love, the hauntology of breakups, and the mistake of begging an unloving partner to stay. They explore which song never fails to get Nick in his feels.
