The Men of Micheaux reminisce about their shared love of foundational anime staples of the 1970s, such as Star Blazers and Battle of the Planets. Then, after doing Six Degrees of D'Urvile to the legendary Lana Turner and the underused Juanita Moore, Vincent becomes perplexed by Len's out-of-the-blue DVD-versus-SDJ comparison. Finally, the Men review the 1959 remake of a classic tale that exceeds its reach aesthetically if not culturally.

Vincent and Len discuss the late T.K. Carter, finding previously unseen racism in their favorite movies, asshole comedians (or comedians’ assholes?), Bill Murray, Chris Rock, The Breakfast Club, and the un-passing hiding inside of 1949’s Pinky besides the film’s three Academy Award-nominated performances.

The Men of Micheaux debut their new home at Anga Studios, planting their flag (and feet) on new territory. Listeners, aka Missionaries, have the Men analyzing the careers of Gabrielle Union and Robin Williams (one is more meh than you think, and it ain't hers). Going Six Degrees of D'urville Martin to Z-actors Zach Galifianakis and Zazie Beetz lands the show in the lap of Chevy Chase (OUCH!), but the Men end things delighted by the tantalizingly funny ZOLA, featuring another tour-de-force performance by Micheaux Mission favorite Taylour Paige.

We bid a sentimental farewell to singer Carl "Bad Mama Jama" Carlton and director/activist Rob Reiner (and his wife Michele). The Missionaries ask Vincent and Len which genre of music has benefited most from the Black experience, then add more names to the list of Top Five Black villains. Vincent takes a Six Degrees journey to Anthony Franciosa and Gloria Hendry. Finally, the Men of Micheaux get into the holiday spirit with a blood-soaked crime drama featuring a catchy theme.

A listener challenges the Men of Micheaux to list their Top Five Black Villains in film, then Len presents a holiday-themed Top Five to a specific missionary in the audience. After going Six Degrees to Ben Kingsley and Liam Neeson, the feature movie review discusses the captivatingly tragic debut of Laurence Fishburne (THE Third!) in this 70s cinematic gem.

The Men of Micheaux welcome friend-fan-professional geek Ariell Johnson of Len’s Secret Movie Podcast with Ariell to share their favorite comic book writers and artists, reveal the secret (?) Jermaine Jackson diss track, play a game of “who is Sienna Miller?”, and review a sentimental, charming film that features Whoopi Goldberg at her best and finest.

The Men of Micheaux bid a fond farewell to reggae legend Jimmy Cliff (1944-2025) and question his and others’ place in music history, which steers into the legacy of the Jacksons, and a requiem of sorts for Randy Jackson. Who should sing a song of Thanksgiving? Six Degrees of Two 2009 indie pictures lead directly into this black & white debut from LaLa Land’s Damien Chazelle.

The Men of Micheaux share their thoughts on Netflix’s Being Eddie documentary and what it says (and doesn’t say) about Eddie Murphy. Vincent goes Six Degrees to two of his favorite British actors - Naomie Harris and Sophie Okonedo. And then they review a 2023 movie that may be the greatest rom-com of all time (when the subtitles are on).

The Men of Micheaux remember when Muhammad Ali beat the brakes off of Superman, and a listener has an addendum for It’s a Black Black Black Black World. The Men also pitch a new Rewatch podcast for the culture. Vincent goes Six Degrees of D’urville to actors John Hurt and Rachel Weisz. And Barry Jenkins makes a hell of a debut in 2008’s Medicine For Melancholy.
