  • Metroland Closes, Mari Matsuo Interview, #Mizzou, #FightFor15, Fuck Boys, War on Christmas | Beat*Shot Radio Takeover 11-10-2015

    Beat*Shot Radio Takeover airs live on beatshotradio.com every Tuesday night at 9PM EST. Discussion topics include:

    ★MetroBANNED: After 38 years, Albany’s weekly Metroland magazine was seized and shut down for failure to pay taxes. We sit down with recent employee, Mari Matsuo , and examine what exactly was going on behind the scenes.

    ★Brass Footballs: The President and chancellor of the University of Missouri resigned after 30 Black members of the football team refused to play until their removal. This, after the administrations failure to address blatant instances of anti-Black racism on the overwhelmingly White campus. We discuss why some people are upset with this effective peaceful protest.
    ★McFuck Yourself: National protests are taking place today (11/10) in the name of fare wages and #FightFor15. We examine why you should probably 1) boycott fast-food, especially today, but also forever, 2) stand in solidarity with the workers, and 3) realize short changing the working poor ends up costing everybody in the end.
    ★Play Time Is Over: Science overwhelmingly agrees that “playing” is vital to a child’s development. So why do we punish children by forcing them to skip recess and other playful activities? We discuss.
    ★Smoke & Mirrors: Beginning in January, Albany Housing residents will no longer be allowed to smoke in their own homes. Should poor adults living in public housing have another restriction levied against them? Does public housing count as a “public space” (i.e. parks, etc)? What about their non-smoking neighbors?
    ★You’re Whalecome: In response to public backlash stemming from the documentary “Black Fish,” SeaWorld is finally ending it’s Orca shows. What took so long? And what does this mean for whale unemployment rates?
    ★Fuck Boy Season: We examine what constitutes being a “fuck boy” and how they’re ruining it for everybody (but mainly for women).
    ★Apology Not Accepted: Week after week celebrities and political figures fail at apologizing for their public gaffes. We do some roleplaying and break down the components of a good apology. And we offer an apology for a mistake we made on our own show earlier this month.
    ★Armed For Battle!: We arm our listeners with everything they’ll need to get a jump start on this year’s “War on Christmas.”
    ★Def Perception: Leading up to this Friday’s release party for JB!!’s highly anticipated album Def Perception at Ship’s Pub, we discuss the album process, and spin some exclusive tracks and snippets (advance tickets available at www.beatshotmusic.com/defperception).

    Beat*Shot Radio Takeover airs live on beatshotradio.com every Tuesday night at 9PM EST. Discussion topics include:

    ★Youth Empowerment Edition:  It’s Masai’s birthday!  We celebrate the death of his youth by discussing different ways we can empower existing young people.

    ★Special Guests: Stephanie Miller, Director of Youth Services NYS Museum; and Ocasio Willson, renaissance man
    ★Spoken Word: Science says it’s vital to a child’s long-term success that they to interact with adults, and hear as many spoken words as possible. How many words is enough? And which kids aren’t hearing them? We discuss.
    ★Rally Though?: After a week of local rallies and protests regarding the death of Dontay Ivy at the hands of the police, where do we stand?
    ★Pay To Play:  The only thing worse than being asked to perform for free, is being expected to pay for the privilege. Why we need to talk about paying to work.
    ★Trick or Trout: As animal species become more endangered, photos of them in the wild become more valuable. But humans have even figured out a way to make photographing animals harmful to their existence. What the hell?
    ★Victim To Criminal Pipeline: Maltreatment and child poverty more than double the probability that a young person will eventually engage in crime. That means the best way to stop crime is to help individuals in need. But what happens when stopping crime means helping victimized criminals?
    ★Obama Bans The Box: The President directs federal agencies to “ban the box” in their hiring decisions, prohibiting them from asking prospective government employees about their criminal histories on job applications. But is it enough?
    ★Def Perception:  Leading up to the 11/13 release party of JB!!’s highly anticipated album Def Perception at Ship’s Pub, we discuss the album process, and spin some exclusive tracks and snippets (advance tickets available at www.beatshotmusic.com).

  • Halloween Edition!, Candy Etiquette, Black Face Costumes, School Assault, Genetic Treats, Boycotting Black Friday | Beat*Shot Radio Takeover 10-27-2015

    Beat*Shot Radio Takeover airs live on beatshotradio.com every Tuesday night at 9PM EST. Discussion topics include:

    ★Halloween Edition! With Ghostly Guest: DJ Wizzy Hoffa!

    ★Schoolhouse Of Horrors: A White South Carolina police officer is caught on film ripping a calmly seated Black teen girl from her desk before slamming her to the ground. When there is no immediate threat of physical harm, should police officers be permitted to assault defiant children? The answers is fucking “no,” but we’ll discuss anyway.
    ★Genetic Treats: Can you roll your tongue? Wiggle your ears? There are certain things that some people just can’t do, no matter how hard they try. We examine why, and compete to see who can complete the most bodily tasks.
    ★Candy Etiquette: Do some trick or treaters deserve candy while others do not? Does an individuals age or lack of costume automatically preclude them from grabbing those goodies?
    ★Color Me Surprised: This week a White Alabama elementary school teacher posted a Halloween photo of himself in blackface. Why do White people still do this? Is it wrong to throw bricks at them? We discuss.
    ★Trick or Trout: As animal species become more endangered, photos of them in the wild become more valuable. But humans have even figured out a way to make photographing animals harmful to their existence. What the hell?
    ★Blacking Out: Black Friday is coming up. Many members of the Black community are once again calling for a boycott of business as usual, until America acknowledges and addresses the historical and present circumstances impacting Black lives. Can this strategy work, or is it too little, too late?
    ★Criminal Costumes: Sometimes your costume is so good you get arrested. We take a look at costumes that have landed people behind bars.
    ★Boys and Ghouls: As the “slutty” vs “non-slutty” costume debate rages on for grown women, child costumes are getting caught in the crossfire. Are skimpy “girl” variations of costumes automatically sexualizing girls, or are we the ones doing the sexualizing? And is there a problem with having boy and girl variations of costumes for young children in the first place? We discuss.
    ★Don’t Google That!: Innocent phrases you shouldn’t Google Image Search

    ★Roadside Resistance: 31 year old Corey Jones was killed by an undercover police officer while waiting for a tow truck.  Police are not releasing much information about the beloved college graduate and youth mentor. We discuss.
    ★Olde English Song lyrics: Trivia where we decipher song lyrics re-written in Olde English and recited in a horrible Shakespearean accent.
    ★Condiment Conundrum: A segment about our picks for the greatest condiment of all time and/or a thinly veiled a ploy to get The Hollow to serve us free appetizers.

    ★Special Guest: DJ Playground!

    ★Still Life: A Louisiana woman recently shared vivid pictures of her stillborn baby (only 21 weeks old) on social media. Several users flagged them as triggering and offensive while others found the images inspiring. Facebook moderators appear to be on the fence, so we’ll settle the issue for them.
    ★Legalize Everything: We examine the pros and cons of legalizing any act that doesn’t directly put others at risk; from all drug use, to jay walking, to tinted windows.
    ★Lovely Weather We’re Having: The Farmer’s Almanac says another rough winter is headed our way. We discuss why this is actually good news.
    ★Decolonize Your World: Americans finally seem ready to abolish Columbus Day, but does exposing celebrations and symbols of oppression actually matter?
    ★Water World: Freestyle story time where hosts tell any personal story related to the thirst quenching element mysteriously left out of Earth, Wind, & Fire. We won’t discuss scientists finding water on mars, because nobody really cares.
    ★Debate Me, Bro: Tonight is the first Democratic debate, but do we really care what the lesser of two evils has to say anymore? Especially when the GOP have the market cornered on entertaining candidates.
    ★Raven Lunatic: When celebrities like Raven-Symone say problematic things, is it our duty to publically chastise them, or should direct our outrage elsewhere?
    ★Atrocity Trivia!: Using only the horrible acts committed by an individual or group, hosts have to guess WHO committed these human atrocities.
    ★Don’t Google That!: Innocent phrases you shouldn’t Google Image Search.

    ★Special Guest: Videographer/Media Mogul/Food Snob, Intell Mosely!  Also, MC and radio personality: Villa Dom!

    ★Crimes Against Infirmary: The US military just bombed an Afghan hospital killing 22 people, including three children. Doctors Without Borders is calling the attack a war crime. American media outlets won’t even call it a bombing. We discuss.
    ★White Savior Movie Trivia: Our least favorite Hollywood trope, now in trivia form! See if you can identify films where White protagonists save struggling non-Whites from their own ineptitude.
    ★Glock To School: Without using the words “gun control” or “mental health” we’ll discuss what else might be causing mass shootings—like the most recent one at Umpqua College. Hint: it rhymes with “shmashculinity.”
    ★Comedic License: Dave Chappelle apparently pissed off Masai at a recent show. We let him vent about it since he’s going to anyway. We also answer the age old question: Should comedians ever worry about offending people?
    ★What’s In A Cure?: We rehash some questionable medical cures that humans have used throughout history and share some of our own home remedies that probably don’t work.
    ★The Stale Prince: Will Smith just announced he’s going on a world tour with DJ Jazzy Jeff. As rappers like Will and Jay Z approach 50, are we finally going to see Rolling Stone style tours from hip-hop’s elders? Or will hip-hop fans always exhibit wavering loyalty towards aged emcees?
