Hello to all our friends, fiends and just consistent listenership! Welcome to another fact finding mission courtesy of the Double Feature/Grindhouse edition of Afronerd Radio.  Check for Captain Kirk, Daryll B. and Dburt this Sunday at 6pm on The Comic Shoppe where we will deliberate on the following pop cultural issues:  perhaps the biggest news to date-director, J.J. Abrams just signed on to direct the next Star Wars installment (so does this make him the HNIC-Head Nerd In Charge?  Star Wars and Star Trek?); the gang finally dissects the Fringe finale;  what is "phase two" (and three) of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and how does Dr. Strange fit in and NOT Black Panther? ; the Robotech live action gets a director and lastly, what would a proposed Quentin Tarantino directed Luke Cage film have looked like with Laurence Fishburne as its star?

And batting second, we have Afronerd featuring Captain Kirk airing after The Shoppeat 7pm.  Join Dburt and The Captain as they wax on the following topics:  Lying as an industry- with Lance Armstrong, Beyonce-gate and Manti Te'o being the new CEOs; American Idol gets sued for alleged racism toward 9 Black disqualified contestants;  Brown vs Black in California-a Black family gets terrorized by a Latino gang and lastly, and does 2013 spell the end of the traditional PC?  The commentators at Beast TV seem to think so.  Call the hosts live at 646-915-9620.
