Black Panther Wins; Fullmetal Alchemist&Janelle Monae Trailers-The Grind@6pm - a podcast by dburt aka Afronerd

We're not even going to pretend that a great deal of the broadcast will not be devoted to this weekend's release of Marvel's Black Panther film.  But there's still a great deal of other pop culture news and views to disseminate, so pull up a chair and listen to the latest musings from your favorite Wakandan Border Tribe (the "uncanny" Daryll B, Claire Lanay, Capt. Kirk and Dburt) airing this Sunday at 6pm eastern.  The topics du jour are: our impressions of the Black Panther and it's stellar performance at the box office; and of course, some of the not so "cosmic" racial animus stories attached to the film (false viral White moviegoer attack stories on social media, alt-right commentary, etc);  noted graphic novelist, animator and friend to the Afronerd Radio machine, Paul Louise Julie stops by to discuss his new kickstarter campaign, Yohance: The Movie (more afrofuturism, folks!) ArchArachnoid and Afropunk alumna, Janelle Monae releases a new trailer for an upcoming musical project entitled, Dirty Computer featuring Thor: Ragnarok's Tessa Thompson;  the Fullmetal Alchemist anime series is getting the live actiion treatment, thanks to a new Netflix trailer; conservative talker, Laura Ingraham appears to be having a war of words with superstar athlete, Lebron James over the Trump adminstration's general perception and performance;  a piece from The Mary Sue posits that Marvel's Blade should be revisted in the wake of Black Panther's success; Is Sundance's Tyrel the next Get Out?;  more on Wildstorm's Michael Cray series; and lastly, what does the DC/WB do in the wake of continued MCU success?  Lobo by Michael Bay or explore a antebellum to present Black Superman story like Icon?  Hmm.  Call in LIVE at 646-915-9620.
