- SSNPod #241 | The Black Women Rock and Roll Pioneers Cinematic Universe (feat. Alasha & @tREBLEFREE) | #saysomethingrealFor many, rock & roll music is associated with white men and teenagers. Elvis Presley and Chuck Berry are often considered its founding fathers. However, rock music owes much of its existence to a number of Black women who birthed the musical genre via their gospel and rhythm & blues roots. In this special episode, the SSN crew and special guests Alasha and tREBLEFREE discuss the mothers of Rock & Roll: Sister Rosetta Tharpe, LaVern Baker, and Ruth Brown, as well as artists such as Betty Davis and Joi Gilliam who followed in their footsteps. Join us in celebrating the true legacy of rock and roll during Black History Month.SHOW NOTES:• 0:00:00: Introduction• 0:06:45: Sister Rosetta Tharpe• 0:29:29: Ruth Brown• 0:48:01: LaVern Baker• 1:11:47: Future Black Women in RockWHERE TO FIND OUR GUESTS:AlashaInstagram: http://instagram.com/lay__lovesFind Greg/tREBLEFREE online at:Twitter: http://twitter.com/tREBLEFREEMixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/greg-treblefree-mitchell-jr/WHERE TO FIND US:Come join our new Facebook group!Link: http://ssnpodcast.com/fbgroupYou can subscribe to the Say Something Nice Podcast at the following services:#iTunes: https://tinyurl.com/ssnpodcast#GooglePlay: http://ow.ly/7vLe30g8jFR#Stitcher: http://ow.ly/X8zV30g8jGWCheck out the SSNP Network feed at:#iTunes: https://tinyurl.com/ssnpnetwork#GooglePlay: http://ow.ly/4ndrBz#Stitcher: http://ow.ly/Xfxlt#aCast: http://acast.com/ssnpodcastYou can also find our show at http://ssnpodcast.comPlease rate us five stars if you love us on iTunes and Stitcher and we will read your reviews on the show!

- SSNPod #240 | The Dennis Edwards Agenda and The Black Holy Ghost (feat. Carolyn & @tREBLEFREE) | #saysomethingrealDespite scoring more hits over a longer tenure as lead singer of the Temptations than David Ruffin, the Alabama-bred and Detroit-reared Dennis Edwards seemed to exist - unfairly, we believe - in the shadow of his predecessor. As a matter of fact, some within our podcast network feel Edwards - who passed away at 74 last week - was the greatest lead singer the Tempts ever had. In this special tribute episode, the SSN Crew and special guests Carolyn from the C-Dubb Show and Greg aka TREBLEFREE recount the life and career of the man who brought songs like "Cloud Nine," "Papa was a Rollin' Stone," and the Siedah Garrett duet "Don't Look Any Further" to glorious, gospel-tinged life, and whether he or Ruffin stands supreme as the best of "the voices."WHERE TO FIND OUR GUESTS:Find Carolyn online at:The C-Dubb Show: http://ssnpodcast.com/cdubbshow | On Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/cdubbshowTwitter: http://twitter.com/knockturnalproInstagram: http://instagram.com/theknockturnalprojectFacebook: http://facebook.com/carolynrwysingerFind Greg/tREBLEFREE online at:Twitter: http://twitter.com/tREBLEFREEMixcloud: https://www.mixcloud.com/greg-treblefree-mitchell-jr/WHERE TO FIND US:Come join our new Facebook group!Link: http://ssnpodcast.com/fbgroupYou can subscribe to the Say Something Nice Podcast at the following services:#iTunes: https://tinyurl.com/ssnpodcast#GooglePlay: http://ow.ly/7vLe30g8jFR#Stitcher: http://ow.ly/X8zV30g8jGWCheck out the SSNP Network feed at:#iTunes: https://tinyurl.com/ssnpnetwork#GooglePlay: http://ow.ly/4ndrBz#Stitcher: http://ow.ly/Xfxlt#aCast: http://acast.com/ssnpodcastYou can also find our show at http://ssnpodcast.comPlease rate us five stars if you love us on iTunes and Stitcher and we will read your reviews on the show!

- SSNPod #238 | “Shazam!” The Trials and Tribulations of the World’s Mightiest Mortal | #saysomethingrealOnce upon a time in the 1940s, the most popular comic book superhero in the world was a teenage boy who said a made-up magic word - "Shazam!" - to become an adult superhero with a flash of lightning. As production begins on a feature adaptation of "Shazam!," the SSN Crew explores the full history of the Artist Formerly Known as Captain Marvel and his Shazam Family from their early days at Fawcett Comics to their acquisition and revival by DC Comics. We also discuss Shazam's struggles through lawsuits, trademark battles, racist caricature sidekicks, reboots on top of reboots, and the wackiest supporting cast of any other DC Comics hero.SHOW NOTES:• 0:00:00: Introduction• 0:09:08: Secret Origins of Fawcett Comics and Captain Marvel (Shazam!)• 0:25:22: Shazam!

- SSNPod #237 | With Great Wokeness Comes Great Responsibility | #saysomethingnewBetween the Oscar nominations and the Grammy Awards, it seems like everyone is trying to get a miniature golden statuette. However, despite some history-making Oscar nominations from people like Mary J. Blige and Jordan Peele, not everyone who may have deserved it got invited to the Academy's slumber party this year. The SSN Crew discusses the nominees for the 90th Academy Awards - and those snubbed from that list, Sony pushing "Super Fly" through production at light speed, the new Netflix series "The End of the F***ing World," and our "Riverdale" buddy Jughead Jones becoming a textbook example of what happened when freshly minted white wokeness goes wrong.SHOW NOTES:• 0:00:00: 2018 Academy Awards Nominations• 0:26:00: 2018 Film News: "Super Fly" remake vs. "The Incredibles 2"• 0:33:45: TV Reviews◦ "grown-ish" (FreeForm)◦ "Riverdale" (The CW)◦ "Black Lightning" (The CW)◦ "The End of the F***ing World" (Netflix)• 0:58:30: TV News: New Pilots for Fall + more• 1:11:49: Music Reviews◦ Migos - "Culture II" (2018)◦ Justin Timberlake feat.
