Project Noir

In this episode, the cast are again joined by Whitney and Kierra, but this time are also joined Jubril as they discuss modern dating. The conversation revolves around ones expectations in a partner, as well as their turn offs as far as behaviour and even future aspirations.

In this episode, we take a trip back to secondary school and discuss the attitudes our schools took towards discipline throughout our time there. We analyse the teacher-student dynamic and determine both how we think it should be changed, and how we think it has affected the way our life has shaped out up to this point.

In this episode we talk about freedom of speech and how laws governing our freedom of speech affect the way we discuss topics such as homosexuality and body positivity. Later in the episode we also talk about code switching and how we think it will affect the future of black people moving forward. Would you still code switch in an interview with a black interviewer? Come hear our answer to that question and more on this episode!

This episode is a laid back one in which the cast, and guests, discuss their expectations from a potential/current partner, share past experiences and take part in 'Accountability Hour' where they analyse their own downfalls when it comes to relationships.

This episode, the first of our new 'Girls Panel' series, aims to tackle the topic of insecurities, anxiety and everything that plagues the female mind. The Project Noir hosts have taken a step back and allowed different voices, free of male, masculine bias, to control the conversation and inform us all on the influences and effects of these mental issues on the female mind. Today's girls share their own stories and experiences as well as discussing the sources of their insecurities as they advise each other and listeners on how to begin to overcome your insecurities.

This is the second part of our episode highlighting and addressing racism in Britain. Our guest Darren discusses the racism he has faced in his different workplaces and  advises us on how to handle these situations so we don't have to endure the same hardships he did. 

This is the first part of our episode discussing stereotypes and how they can affect the way that you are treated by others. Microaggressions are so commonplace in our society, and in this episode we cover how microaggressions are committed by people based on the stereotypes they had heard about a particular group of people. The way movements, such as the Black Lives Matter protests, are handled can change based on the stereotypes of the people who are attending. We discuss our stories of getting stereotyped, not only at school and work, but also while apart of these movements.

In this episode, we bring on a couple of the mandem to discuss what being a man really means. We take our time to discuss navigating aspects of male life such as mental health, relationships and parenthood. Near the end, we put ourselves in the shoes of our unborn sons and discuss the world they will be living in as well as how different fathering styles will shape them in different ways. The view of manhood in the UK and the US are also compared.

Many things have come out of this pandemic, including this podcast, and in today's episode we take the opportunity to analyse the way that life has changed for all of us. We discuss changes in education, working and business. Another discussion point for this episode was how the pandemic has been handled by the UK and US governments as we put ourselves in the shoes of the people chosen to lead us out of this unexpected crisis.

After slavery, the black people in America slowly but surely began to make a living for themselves within White America. Not too long after, you could see self-sufficient communities of black people residing and thriving. In this episode, we cover what happened to some of these communities and identify some of the reasons why we don't see many of these purely black owned spaces in existence today.
