(Re-air) Rod & Ryan rant about two episodes from the first season of Good Times..."Getting Up the Rent" & "Black Jesus". They dive into the Evans not having a bank account, Florida praying for the first time, JJ "finding" things, and Jesus' blackness. They also digress...especially about their dad.

The 1992 film, Juice, followed four high school boys growing up in Harlem who hang tight. They decide to rob a store one night, and when everything goes wrong, they find themselves against one member of the crew. Rod & Ryan delve into the complexity of these characters, how 90s this movie was, and the greatness of this soundtrack. They also digress about video games, fasting, and bonnets.

Rappers Kid & Play star as themselves in this early 90s film. Play is having big house party while his folks are out of town, and Kid is trying to sneak out after getting punished for fighting at school. Rod & Ryan do a deep dive into all things related to this movie, including whether this had the best dance scene ever and the future stars in this movie. They also digress about the best party ever and that commercial..."I gotta great new album in the mail today!"

Rod & Ryan take a break from Good Times to deep dive into the hits from the group, Force MDs. They discuss their best songs from "Tender Love" to "Love is a House". They also jump into how the Force MDs seemed to mess up all their relationships (if you go by their songs). The crew points out how this group had the perfect songs to sing to the ladies in the audience. And of course, they digress about topics ranging from Mr. T to Kurtis Blow.

The Evans family is concerned that they may be eating dog food when their neighbor brings the main dish to dinner. Rod & Ryan deep dive into the classic scenes from this episode, and of course they digress...from stories about their dad to how Gerdy suddenly had ground round for the meatloaf but not herself.

JJs new, rich girlfriend (Clarissa) from the South Shore invites him to a debutante ball, and JJ is super excited. However, Clarissa's parents are not excited about JJ as her choice. And of course, this causes a stir with the Evans. Rod & Ryan dive into this episode with their thoughts on classism, James' warranted anger, and JJs outfit. They also digress about black women in Playboy and racism possibly being over.

Jack Brown is an out-of-work journalist who takes a job as a janitor at U.S. Bates' (a millionaire from Louisiana) department store. When the tycoon's little brat son, Eric, comes for his annual visit, he goes to the store, sees Jack, and wants him as his "toy". Bates convinces (with A LOT OF MONEY) to stay for the week with Eric. Jack finds out a lot in one week about Eric's unhappiness and the Bates' family. Rod & Ryan dive deep into this 1982 film with regards to racism and dignity. They also digress all over the place from Jeffery Osborne to Footloose in Beaumont, TX.

When the Evans realize that James' handyman skills are top notch, they try to get a loan for a "Fix-it" shop. When the bank rejects them for the loan, James sets up shop in his own home. But when the building superintendent, Bookman, finds out, he blackmails James into fixing his things for free or else he will kick the Evans out of their apartment. Rod & Ryan dive into Bookman's introduction to Good Times and why the Evans thought the bank would give them money. They also digress about Stevie Wonder, West Coast Rap, and the black birthday anthem.

One of the Evans' neighbors has asked JJ to paint a picture of her as a birthday gift to her husband. There's only one catch...it would be a picture of her in the nude! Florida is totally against it (James, not so much), but they come to a compromise. Rod & Ryan dive into this episode about Florida's anxiety, James' lowkey excitement to see the Wiggler, and JJ's quest to be an artist. They also digress about their dad and other things.

Merry New Year! The blacklog starts off 2026 with a deep dive into Eddie Murphy's career. They specifically each give their choices for Eddie's top 5 movies and their reasons. They also trip out on his top scenes, his overall career, and his SNL days. They digress (of course), and YES, you will not agree with all of them
