The POCcorn podcast reviews films created, directed and/or starring People of Color. Each show uses four questions to describe our thoughts on the film, plus one POCcorn moment we simply MUST discuss in detail.

In this episode, we discuss Life of Pi and select the "Floating Carnivorous" Island scene as our POCcorn moment. This film perpetuates the idea that we humans will not get the answers we are searching for in this life. But at least we get entertainment. Listen in!

In this mini episode, We debate when the biggest holiday of the year really kicks off. Is it when the last "Trick or Treat" is spoken? When the Thanksgiving feast has morphed into leftovers? Or whenever someone dares to play Mariah Carey's vocals? Listen in to hear our vote!

We have our second special guest, TaLissa on the podcast to discuss her role as a "full-time aunty" or more broadly a familial guardian.

Lisa has five nieces and one nephew that she has helped raise along with her sisters, and cherishes every moment she gets to be a pivotal part of their lives. Sharing her struggles and triumphs of being a guardian, Lisa believes that the relationship she has with her sisters, along with the the respect they have for her input truly makes the old adage: "it takes a village" all that more precious. But more than anything, she wishes that her contributions allow her nieces and nephew to find comfort in knowing she spoke life into them through it all.

Wipes away tears for the hundredth time. In this episode, we discuss Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and select the "Shuri in Haiti" scene as our POCcorn moment.

In episode 13, William and Joan are passed over for partner at their firm; and for another black lawyer no less! William is outraged to the point of quitting to start his own practice, while Joan stays behind to endure the competition of two POC vying for the same spot. This inspired talks about affirmative action and being valued at your job.

In episode 14, Maya finds a kindred spirit in another single black mother trying to make it on her own. The relationship seems refreshing and affirming. However, Maya gets seduced by the idea that she is entitled to all of her privileges and lack thereof. Thankfully, Joan reels her back in before she truly jeopardizes her and Jabari's life. We discuss the necessity of having all stories told, regardless of our own bias. Listen in!

In this episode, we discuss Wendell & Wild and select the "undead makeover" scene as our POCcorn moment. As one of the first films to feature POC in a stop motion film, we were more than excited to share our views. Listen in!

In this mini episode, the We Need to Talk hostesses speak on artists who use real life trauma, drama, and sensitive topics for their art. Rappers, comedians and more have taken other people's pain and used it for their own benefit or clout. Where is the line? Is there even a line? And is there any hope of artists taking a more sensitive approach to certain topics. We have thoughts. Listen in!

Our bonus this episode is on how to make the best hot chocolate! Kudos to Kima!

Episode 12's setting is in an open mic event where Lynn falls in "lust" with an incredible poet, who also happens to be celibate. Inspired by the episode, we take a walk down memory lane talking promise rings and college poetry readings. But our main topic centered around Ellis (Joan's boyfriend) and his rejection from the black community. We go over reasons black celebrities disappoint the communities they come from, as well as reasons black communities shun black celebrities in turn. Listen in!
