Greetings, folks! Let us actually try to lay out the facts free from verbosity! Check for this Saturday's Grindhouse broadcast, featuring The Comic Shoppe at 6pm and Afronerd Radio "playing bass" at 7pm. Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620. For The Shoppe, your hosts Dburt, Captain Kirk and Daryll B. will be addressing the following topics: yet another Sherlock inspired iteration hits our time space continuum but on this occasion, Watson & Holmes are Black (shocking?); more industry chatter insinuating that Christian Bale might have been offered 50 mill to don the cowl again; the team weighs in on Mark Millar's Kick Ass sequel; picking up from a few shows ago, our thoughts on minority representation in video gaming (can a brother get a DLC?); comic writer/artist, Paul Pope's pitch to a DC head honcho and the exec's response causes a title wave in cyberspace and the industry and lastly, is it Cranston for Lex Luthor or Vin Diesel for Groot?
At 7pm, enter Afronerd Radio with your guides, Dburt and Captain Kirk. The issues up for grabs are: Russell Simmons responds to Don Lemon's point with a Harriet Tubman sex tape (really?); a Racialious blogger pens an open letter to actor, Kal Pen for his stance on stop & frisk...you can't be a person of color and have an independent thought (hint: progessives aren't that progressive); rapper, Kendrick Lamar's industry shout out causes controversy and lastly our Anecdote segment (Afro wig wearing Whites, Zimbabwe's Black only stocks and a 1912 8th grade exam is found). See you all at 6pm and then 7!
