It's Like a Podcast or Whatever

We have returned to record the FINAL SEASON of ILaPoW. And what better way to return than to pay homage to our Patron Saint, Our Brother who art in Heaven, Aaron Greenlee. Handsome Bane shares the celebration with his friends, Kuma Da Grizzly, Alejandra Tejeda, Malikai Unique and a guy who shares 33 years of friendship with our host, J-Down.

The panel picks their favorite 25 people who best embody the spirit of black nerdom. Prepare for some surprises. We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording.

WELCOME TO SEASON 7 of It's Like a Podcast or Whatever, and what better way to start the season by ripping off one of our favorite podcasts, All Fantasy Everything?  

We (B Hyphen, ShowinMadLov, Mike Lam, Everyday Rogue, HB and one his very best friends, Teri aka PuddinAnn) are gathered here today to draft our favorite celebrities who passed on to Glory in the year 2020.  With last year sucking as badly as it did, it took the lives of a lot of Loved Ones. So instead of trying to choose just ONE person we would miss the most at the POWWIE AWARDS, we got together to choose 25 as well as some honorable mentions. PuddinAnn is making her podcasting debut, but you wouldn't know it. Join us in this celebration of life as we still find a way to have fun (respectfully) with such a somber topic. 

We thank you for listening and loving, trusting and believing in us. Looking forward to greatness in season 7!

WELCOME TO TOASTER LEAVINS 4!  It's the best of the rest.  Some of the good stuff that got cut from the better stuff. It's very adequate entertainment. 

Jeaux talks of his time as a stunt rider.

Savannah Summers talks Simpsons and Covid

Maweezy has no idea what day it is.

MIkal Mosely has audio issues.

K-Rock is too careful.

Some dude gets eaten by zombies.

Oroku Saki stops by.

Sup, Turkeys? Welp, we've come to the end of the road...for ILAPOW Season 6. Honestly, we should have called it with the last episode. But our friends were gracious enough to come back to record the season finale. We talk HBO's Lovecraft Country and what we got out of it. We discuss its cultural importance, representation, and whether or not it's worth going through all the Black trauma to watch it. There is also a Homeboys in Outer Space reference in there somewhere. We are joined by @showinmadlov, @atejeda97, @kumadagrizzly and @unfriendlyblerdhottie.

Today we have a very special guest coming all the way from the Land Down-Under, Australian Professional Wrestler Savannah Summers.  Handsome Bane invites her to the pod to mark out unapologetically.  Savannah gives us the details surrounding her journey into the business and what to look forward to when the cloud of Covid lifts off the world.   She also tells us who she believes is the best there is currently, her favorite wrestler and just who is the GREATEST OF ALL TIME!  This chat was a lot of fun and so is Savannah's accent.  We'd like to thank her for taking ILaPoW international.  Love, Trust and Belief

HB starts the show by explaining that his presumed absence last week was ACTUALLY a super presence, because even though there was no ILaPoW episode PER SE, ILaPoW presented the NEW SHOW, EVERYDAY COSPLAY with EVERYDAY ROGUE is out on all the platforms and ready for your consumption!  Then he launches into some personal updates, family, living situations, job stuff. Nothing huge. AND THEN we are honored to be joined by Creator of Roger Rabbit, Jessica Rabbit, Baby Herman and Eddie Valiant, author and all-around cool guy, GARY K WOLF!  I KNOW!! He and Handsome Bane dish on the origins of Roger, Gary's relationship with Disney, how different the book is from the film, WHY pray tell, Roger went from being a BROWN bunny in the book to a WHITE bunny in the film (It's a very reasonable explanation) HB auditions and politics for a role in a future project and (jokingly) agrees to preorder THOUSANDS of copies of Gary's next book.

Our bro Mike Lamerique took over the pod this week with another edition of The Soapbox. We didn't know we asked for a description of this week's events and this is what he said;

"Me, my wife. Taneyri and Janice from "in good company" podcast, currently on hiatus. We weren't really talking about anything in particular, but we were live when we found out about Chadwick."

Well there you have it. Enjoy it or we'll steal the batteries out of all your remote controls.
