Micheaux Mission episodes:

August 28, 2025 Crimson Tide (1995)
Len shares mini-reviews of the late-summer horror box-office hitWeapons and Eden, the most UN-Ron Howard film ever. Then the Men of Micheaux create a Black Acting Mount Rushmore (1980-present) before basking in the master class on display by Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman in director Tony Scott's political thriller Crimson Tide, featuring Quentin Tartino's toneless dialogue.

August 22, 2025 Sugar Hill (1994)
The Men of Micheaux glide through a history of comedy dating back to the 40s just so they can fully unfurl their capes for Tisha Campbell and Tichina Arnold (again!), two underappreciated comedic geniuses waiting to be "discovered". Then a reflection on character actor Abe Vigoda brings them to their review of SUGAR HILL, a forgotten Wesley Snipes drama of the 90s with many influences but not much to say.

August 14, 2025 Iron Eagle 2 (1988)
The Men of Micheaux create a list of must-see Black films from 1980-2025 for visiting extraterrestrials and give fair consideration to the career choices of Louis Gossett Jr. in light of his jingoistic movie series "Iron Eagle". Nevertheless, as in mourning the loss of 70s child actor Danielle Spencer, Len and Vincent get stuck searching for the answer: "Who thought it was a good idea for Dee to date Dwayne on What's Happening Now?"

August 07, 2025 The Final Comedown (1972)
The Men of Micheaux return to live podcasting to cape for what they've been watching lately, something a little old (King of The Hill, Homicide: Life On The Streets) and something new (Pantheon, King of The Hill?). Vincent gets lost wandering through the small sweatered lands of the Madea Cinematic Universe. And after Six Degrees of Billy Dee Williams, they go One Degree of D'Urville with their review of the still-relevant The Final Comedown.

July 24, 2025 Little Man (2006)
The Men of Micheaux remember rock legend Ozzy Osbourne and Malcolm-Jamal Warner's inspiring career, consider Quincy Jones's film scores, and share their thoughts on Fantastic Four: First Steps. Unfortunately, that leaves room for their review of Little Man, perhaps the smallest achievement in the Wayans Bros. filmography.

July 10, 2025 Shaft's Big Score (1972) with David F Walker
Award-winning author and comic book writer David F Walker (Bitter Root, Naomi) joins us in the Summer of Comics to showcase his deep knowledge (and admiration) for 70s Blaxploitation cinema, especially the work of Richard Roundtree — John Shaft himself! Plus, we create an all-star writing room for some epic Black movies, Vincent and David both go Six Degrees of D'urville, and we tally up Shaft's Big Score.

July 03, 2025 One Down, Two To Go (1982)
The Men of Micheaux say goodbye to Walter Scott of The Whispers while also wondering about the group's strange hold on the hearts of Philly. Vincent and Len went to the movies to see Jurassic World: Rebirth, and they have an opinion about what the film should have rebirthed. And after sharing their favorite Saturday morning cartoons (YAY!) and cereals (BUMMER!), the Men analyze what went wrong with writer-director Fred Williamson's 1982 attempt at a 1970s "cool Black flick."
