Listen "Episode 79 - Black Bottom Blues"
Episode Synopsis
We’re back! We have some HUGE news to cover this week. We discuss the big MGM "For Sale" sign, Taika Waititi and Sterlin Harjo's new show, the Book of Boba Fett, and much more. Between reviews, we also talk about our trip across America where Kelsey terrifies Mark in various ways for our Variety Time segment.
We’ve got Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom as our Recent Review and Lady Sings the Blues as our Geriatric Cinematic. We break down Chadwick Boseman's final performance and Diana Ross's Oscar-nominated role in great detail.
Should you see either of these? Listen and find out.
Next week is a big week for HBO Max, Disney Plus, and the dynamic duo at the Reel Appeal! You can expect our Recent Review to be Wonder Woman 1984 and the Geriatric Cinematic will be 1973's Coffy. Find the Patty Jenkins directed sequel streaming on HBO Max on December 25th and the Pam Grier led movie available to rent on Amazon, Apple TV, YouTube, and other VOD services.
But that's not the end of it! We are gifting you with a bonus episode for the holidays. That's right. We are reviewing Pixar's Soul for our Recent Review as well as Rock & Rule for our Geriatric Cinematic. The latest from the House of Mouse will be available on Disney Plus on December 25th and the 1983's animated musical is streaming on Amazon Prime or YouTube for free...just don't tell anyone we sent you.
