All over bowls of gumbo cuz that's how southern Black folks do it: family style!

SSNP 325 | TLC's "Crazysexycool": 25 Years Later (feat. @kuroverse)

Wed, 20 Nov 2019 17:24:00 -0500

25 years ago, Atlanta pop/R&B royals Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes, and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas rose through the (literal) ashes of controversy and scandal to release one of the best-selling and best-loved R&B albums of the decade. In this special episode, the SSN Crew, and special guest Tim from the Kuroverse Corporation, do a track-by-track retrospective on TLC's sophomore album, "Crazysexycool." We cover behind-the-scenes stories, the group's origins (and its forgotten original "C", Crystal Jones), and how indeed you can sell ten million records and go broke the same year.

Plus: reviews of the latest installment of "Watchmen" and Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman," a breakdown of Byron Allen's lawsuits against Comcast and Charter, Mo'Nique suing Netflix, and Elizabeth Banks' "Charlie's Angels" failing to take flight.

The C-Dubb Show #146: You Gotta Coooooodinate #TheCDubbShow

Sat, 16 Nov 2019 12:00:00 -0500

The Bay Area PG&E Purge kept us from celebrating Halloween with y’all, and - in true C-Dubb Show fashion - we give OUR view of why it happened. We also mourn the loss of everyone’s TV “Pops,” John Witherspoon, and Courtney straight loses it at the news of Katie Hill’s resignation from Congress. Oh yeah...and Jesus is King.

SSNP 324 | 30 Years a Mermaid, 40 Years a Shining: "Doctor Sleep" and "The Little Mermaid Live"

Wed, 13 Nov 2019 21:09:09 -0500

In this episode, the SSN Crew indulges in two big discussions about two very different films celebrating anniversaries with new productions. First up, we discuss Stephen King's classic horror novel "The Shining," the subject of a classic film celebrating its 40th anniversary with a sequel, "Doctor Sleep." Can this new entry following an adult Dann Torrence mentoring a Black teenage girl live up to the legacy of the Stanley Kubrick classic?

Then, we dive back in time again - and under the sea - to explore the dawn of the Disney Renaissance with the making of "The Little Mermaid." That film celebrated its 30th anniversary with a special ABC-TV screening of the animated musical featuring live-on-stage performances of its songs. How'd that work out for them?

All this, plus a follow-up review of "Bigger" on BET+, reviews of "The Good Liar", HBO's "Watchmen", a discussion of what Paramount can/will do now that "Terminator: Dark Fate" and "Gemini Man" have flopped, and more - including a preview of a potential spin-off show, "Say Something Sexy!"

Wed, 13 Nov 2019 01:10:42 -0500

"Def did not think we would be talking about hymens today..." ( Christy Teigan) ...but that's exactly what we are talking about. The crew is joined by Stephanie from the Mocha Minutes Podcast and Alasha to discuss Whitney Houston's broken heart and T.I.'s quest to "protect" his daughter's hymen. This is not a joke.

SSNP 323 | Streaming Wars Episode II: Attack of the HBO Max Smorgasbord

Sun, 10 Nov 2019 05:28:27 -0500

SSNP 323 | Streaming Wars, Episode II: Attack of the HBO Max Smorgasbord November 9, 2019

A long time ago (last week), in a galaxy far, far away (Burbank), a media conglomerate announced a sprawling new steaming platform full of some of their most popular movies and TV shows, as well as new productions. No, it isn't Disney - it's Warner Bros., and, unlike with the Mouse House, there's far more hurdles to overcome. Can HBO Max overcome branding issues and a high monthly price to make new "Green Lantern." "Boondocks," and "Little Ellen" (!) productions successes?

In this episode, the SSN Crew discusses HBO Max's content presentation, as well as Lori Loughlin staring down the barrel of a 50 year prison sentence, the Internet's best friends - "Game of Thrones" show runners David Benioff & D.B. Weiss - departing Star Wars for Netflix, and more bonus discussion on Eddie Murphy's "Dolemite is My Name!"

SHOW NOTES:
0:00:00: Say Something New: News
◦ HBO Max Presentation: "Green Lantern," "Strange Adventures," "Little Ellen," "Jellystone," and more...
0:31:02: Say Something Nice Challenge
◦ Lori Laughlin hit with more charges, looking at 50 years in jail
◦ David Benioff & D.B. Weiss no longer writing Star Wars trilogy - quit or fired?

SSNP 322 | "Harriet" and "Dolemite is My Name": Shades of Blackness

Thu, 07 Nov 2019 07:24:00 -0500

The SSN Crew returns to discuss two very different new movies featuring Black actors. First up is "Harriet," the hotly-debated biopic about Black American hero Harriet Tubman embroiled in multiple controversies, some reasonable, some blatant lies. Does the movie do justice to our legend, or is it a white savior movie featuring an implausible interracial love story? Or...is it neither?

Then, we review Eddie Murphy's return to form in "Dolemite is My Name," with its look at the making of a blaxploitation classic and star turns for Keegan-Michael Key, Tituss Burgess, Mike Epps, a heavily wigged T.I., and Da'Vine Joy Randolph. Plus, reviews of the first two episodes of HBO's new "Watchmen" series, the BET+ streaming show "Bigger," Taika Watiti's Oscar-bait Nazi dramedy "Jojo Rabbit," and Tyler Perry's new BET shows "The Oval" and "Sistas".

SHOW NOTES:

SSNP 319 | "Gemini Man" aka The Fresh Boys of Brazil (ft. Tammy aka @Cowkitty)

Fri, 18 Oct 2019 00:03:17 -0500

Are two Wills better than one? The SSN Crew and special guest Tammy aka Cowkitty review Ang Lee's latest experiment with high-frame rate filmmaking. Unlike with his previous "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk," this time Mr. Lee has a secret weapon: Will Smith! Was seeing Fresh Prince vs. Fresh Prince worth watching in (*deep breath*) Dolby Cinema 3D at 120 frames per second, or is it not much more than an action-heavy telenovela? Also, did Jason Weaver make a mistake by taking royalties instead of a $2 million lump sum for singing the songs in the original "Lion King"? ALl this and more within!

Pioneering actress and singer Diahann Carroll passed away at the age of 84 last week.

In this special episode of the SSN Crew, and special guests Alasha and C-Dubb from The C-Dubb Show, discuss Ms. Carroll's career and four of her most famous acting achievements: as the star of the sitcom "Julia," as the lead of the cult classic film "Claudine," as Dominique Devereaux on "Dynasty" and "The Colbys," and as Whitley Gilbert's mother Marion on "A Different World".

SSNP 315 | Joker: The Spoilerific Review Show (feat. @DrAprylA)

Tue, 08 Oct 2019 11:14:49 -0500

The most infamous film release (so far!) of 2019 is finally here. In this episode, the SSN Crew and special guest Dr. Apryl review Todd Phillips' equally praised and maligned "Joker," based (very) loosely on Batman's comic-book archenemy.

Is it the masterpiece the film festivals praised it as or an embarrassment to real fans of DC Comics? Will Joaquin Phoenix win the Oscar? Did seeing the picture turn us all into murderous incels? All of these questions and more are answered within!

Wait, what is this fedora doing on my head?

SSNP 313 | "Set It Off" on the Left - and Don't Remake It!

Wed, 25 Sep 2019 00:33:19 -0500

Everything that ain't tied down is getting "rebooted"! Where are the original ideas?! Sitting in drawers unmade because YOU (yes, you!) would rather go see superheroes and CGI lions at your local bijou!

Okay, that might be hyperbole. Might, I tell you.

In this episode, the SSN Crew wades through the plethora of announcements for "new" takes on "Saved By the Bell," "Set it Off," "The Craft," "Punky Brewster", and "The Boondocks." We give our takes on which of these (if any!) will make it. Plus - we celebrate Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation 1814" turning 30, little Spanky McFarland running around in blackface 80 years ago, dive into Netflix's "Big Mouth" (!), and hope that Dobie Gillis can get his errant cousin Shane Gillis together.

In this episode, LaTria pitches the SSN Crew on an Academy Award-worthy film version of the Huffman/Laoughlin college admissions scandal, with A-list cast, crew, and an interesting choice of producers!

We also discuss the festival successes of "Jojo Rabbit" and "Joker", the festival failure of Nate Parker, yet more streaming services for your smart TVs, Kevin Hart's car accident, and the wild roller coaster that has been everything Malik Yoba related as of late.

SSNPTV | Netflix & Ava DuVernay’s When They See Us

Wed, 18 Sep 2019 15:19:47 -0500

The 1989 New York City trials involving the five teenaged boys then known as the "Central Park Five" represented a notable example of the injustices and mistreatment Black people often suffer in the United States. In this episode, the SSN Crew reviews Ava DuVernay's acclaimed four-part miniseries, which dramatizes the lives of Antron McCray, Yusef Salaam, Corey Richardson, Raymond Santanna, and Korey Wise both before and after they were framed for the sexual and physical assault of a young white woman jogger and sent to prison for crimes they did not commit.

SSNP 309 | Motown 60, Part 1: The History of Hitsville USA From Marvin Gaye to Migos (feat. Yusuf Lamont, @treblefree & @CDubbTheHost)

Wed, 04 Sep 2019 02:02:00 -0500

In celebration of the 60th anniversary of the history-making and groundbreaking Motown Records, and following the premiere of the new documentary "Hitsville: The Making of Motown," the SSN Crew is joined by an all-star panel of guests - Carolyn from The C-Dubb Show, Greg aka tREBLEFREE, and Yusuf Lamont - for a comprehensive dive into the histories of Berry Gordy, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross & the Supremes, Gladys Knight & the Pips, The Temptations, The Jackson 5, Rick James, DeBarge, Boyz II Men, Erykah Badu, and...the Migos?!

How did Motown create the template for crossover success for African-American artists - and what implications, good and bad, did that have in the past and the present? Does "Dreamgirls" tarnish the legacy of The Supremes' Florence Ballard in its appropriation of her tragic story? And who are the producers, songwriters, musicians, and session singers who kept the Motown machine running? There's so much to cover that we couldn't possibly fit it all into two hours - so we didn't! Enjoy part one now and look out for part two coming up next!

In this episode, the SSN Crew is joined by an all-star panel of guests - Stephanie from Mocha Minutes Podcast, Greg aka tREBLEFREE, and Yusuf Lamont - to discuss Spider-Man's long journey from print to screen to the MCU, and what this "divorce" means for Tom Holland and the future of the Spidey franchise.

SSNP 304 | The Lion King (1994 & 2019): The Best & Worst Thing to Happen to Disney Animation (feat. Stephanie of Mocha Minutes Podcast)

Thu, 25 Jul 2019 00:23:38 -0500

Roger Allers & Rob Minkoff's seminal animated film, "The Lion King," represented the pinnacle of success for traditional Disney animation...and the beginning of its downfall. Twenty-five years and numerous regime turnovers later, the Disney corporation has remade "The Lion King" under the direction of "Iron Man's" Jon Favreau. Marketed strangely as a "live action" remake, it is a scene-by-scene (and almost shot-by-shot) rehash animated with photorealistic CGI animals and environments. Can the new version hold a candle to the old? How did the original "Lion King" manage to both break box office records and plant the seeds for the death of American traditional (hand-drawn) animation?

In this episode, the SSN Crew and special guest Stephanie of the Mocha Minutes Podcast answer these questions and more, including a revisiting of the short-lived feature animation studios that sprang up in "Lion King's" wake, how both versions of the film deal with their celebrity voice castings, and what the future of the Disney "live action" remakes could look like, for better or worse.

SSNP 302 | Spider-Man: Far From Home - The Spoilerific Review Show

Tue, 16 Jul 2019 23:25:08 -0500

Spider-Man may be able to do whatever a spider can, but can he still balance that with being a regular kid on a regular European field trip? And can he still impress the girl he likes or will getting wrapped up in a new mission with Nick Fury and...Mysterio?...lay all of that to ruin?

The SSN Crew reviews "Spider-Man: Far From Home," the latest entry in the neigh-unstoppable Marvel Cinematic Universe. Do the kids in the movie feel like real teens or movie teens? Did walking into the film with prior familiarity of one of its key characters spoil the movie for us? And what of those post-credit scenes? In addition, we discuss R. Kelly getting hemmed up on federal charges, Halle Bailey being cast as "The Little Mermaid," and why our hosts are a little split on their excitement for the "live-action" CGI remake of "The Lion King."

SSNP 301 | Toy Story 4 vs. Child's Play - Who's Your Friend to the End? (feat. Tammy AKA Cowkitty)

Sun, 14 Jul 2019 13:53:00 -0500

The SSN Crew is joined by special guest Tammy AKA Cowkitty to discuss both the Toy Story and Child's Play franchises, and to review the latest entries in each: Pixar's "Toy Story 4" and MGM's revamp of the original "Child's Play." Why didn't any of the hosts like the original "Toy Story" when it first came out, and yet came to hail its sequels as masterpieces? Why is MGM starting a Chucky franchise when Universal still has theirs? Where are the depth maps? And, most importantly, why are Bo Peep and Forky just...everything?!

Wed, 10 Jul 2019 01:26:00 -0500

The Say Something Nice Podcast is turning 300...episodes long! To mark this achievement, we talk about another property reaching an important milestone: the 50th anniversary of everyone's favorite mystery-solving Great Dane, Scooby-Doo, and his (still) high-school aged meddling human friends. In this episode, the SSN Crew and special guest Quadrus discusses a half-century of Scooby, from its origins as a spin on Archie and Dobie Gillis through decades' worth of cartoon series, feature films, and...interesting pop culture references.
