Artist/Podcaster Wi-Moto Nyoka (Black Women Are Scary) steps onto the Mission with memories of podcasts as intimate affairs for the ears, not the eyes. A listener asks for Len's reaction to The Last Dragon returning to theaters for its 40th-anniversary run, and Len responds. The Men of Micheaux and Wi-Moto share their ideas for original horror films of their own and then review the "werewolf drama" that's one part Brazil, one part France, one part Portuguese, and all parts intense.

Cartoonist Ben Passmore (BTTM FDRS) shares his moment of activation into anarchy and connects it to his new graphic novel, Black Arms To Hold You Up. That seamlessly leads into a review of the compelling 2017 documentary about life in Ferguson during the BLM movement. Vincent explores Six Degrees of separation within the career of 'the white guy in Enter The Dragon,' and Ben and The Men use Silver Convention's Fly Robin Fly to soundtrack a movie.

The Missionaries has Vincent and Len combing through the history of Black Teen actors in the 1980s and the origin of the Buddy-Cop genre (would you believe 1974?).

Then, the Men of Micheaux are a couple of flies on the wall for director RaMell Ross's visual poem about small towns in Alabama.

We remember Terrence Crawford vs. Canelo Alvarez. We go on a Vision Quest for some reason still unknown. One of us finds out about Robert Redford's passing. We examine the darkness of Happy Feet. And we have reviews (and lyrics) to go for A Tribe Called Quest and director Michael Rapaport.

Vincent and Len marvel at THE LIFE AND CRIMES OF DORIS PAYNE, an 80-year-old jewel thief on absolutely unrepentant glory. But first they partake in recasting of Sinners circa the 90s, suggested by a listener, and unveil a new feature dedicated to celebrating the under-celebrated Black actresses of yesterday and today - With/And - beginning with Fredi Washington, who lived anything but an Imitation of Life. Six Degrees of D'urville Martin connects the blaxploitation legend with Hollywood burglars Cary Grant and Michael Madsen.
