Next Episode: Color Of Friendship

On this week’s episode, hosts Tre’vell Anderson and jarrett hill go over the complex and complicado of the highly anticipated Barbie movie. They get into their thoughts on the film’s rollout, marketing strategy, and how Stereotypical Barbie represents the beginning of white women’s self - reckoning. But first in our Pass The Popcorn segment, our hosts speak on the state of the entertainment industry, from the WGA/SAG - AFTRA union strikes, to Hollywood’s initiative of driving out diversity, specifically at the network executive level.

Our hosts will also be on hiatus during the month of August, but don’t worry! We’ll be sharing content throughout the break and will be back on August 31st with a brand new episode.
