Our systems may have been down (last week) but not our spirits, folks! Let's try this AGAIN, shall we? Welcome to Sunday's Grindhouse edition of Afronerd Radio. Up first at 6pm, there's The Comic Shoppe featuring Captain Kirk, Dburt and Daryll B. where they will be discussing the following topics: Playstation 4 gets a NY reveal...sort of; beta testing for Google glasses starts for a mere $1500(!!!!); DC52 gets its own version of World's Finest, courtesy of Greg Pak and Jae Lee; more reflections on the late and legendary comic writer, Dwayne McDuffie and his problems with being a "Black" writer and lastly, our thoughts on the recent 1st releases of Justice League of America and Nova. Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620.
Unfortunately, we were unable to cover our Mid Week topics due to a PC breakdown..so let's go for "round 2" tonight at 7pm. Listen to Afronerd Radio with Captain Kirk and Dburt as they unpack the following current event laden concerns: weird racial stories (a Black infant gets slapped and called the n-word on a plane by an irate passenger; actor, Alec Baldwin has an alleged racial meltdown and comedienne, Lisa Lampanelli tweets the n-word to Girls, Lena Dunham); Shadow & Act film critic, Sergio Mims pays a visit to give us the entertainment rundown; legendary music mogul, Clive Davis makes some interesting (if not surprising) revelations in his latest memoir and lastly, a recent Black Enterprise article ponders the need for minority (especially Black athletes) investing in tech startups.
