In this episode of Banterly, Aidan and Maya catch up on their hectic weeks and dive into the latest in pop culture—from Lorde’s surprise performance at Washington Square Park to a vampire-themed Question of the Day. But the main event is Ryan Coogler’s Sinners, a gripping new film set in 1930s Mississippi that blends music, racial tension, and the supernatural. Aidan and Maya break down why Sinners is a must-watch: from its haunting performances to its powerful use of historical context and sound. This is more than a vampire movie—it’s a bold, emotional story that sticks with you.
