  • Episode 9: The White Man Behaving Badly Trope

    Hey, another episode of Hall & Hudd, the segment where two black guys talk race, politics, and in this episode, power. Follow along as they weave in psychology concepts, pop culture, and world events in a conversation about power, and politics, and why so many shows benefited from a while pale protagonist who behaved badly for our amusement. 

    This episode is 2 weeks late after being pushed aside for the Chadwick episode, so some of the references feel like old news by now, with the news cycle moving so fast these days. Still, it's an enjoyable dialogue.

    This episode contains strong language and radical ideas.
