Wu-Tang: An American Saga - Protect Ya Neck (S2, Ep. 6)

Send us a text


Happy Wine Wednesday and Happy Wu Wednesday! Candi is with me
this week to talk to y'all about a show you should absolutely be
watching, Wu-Tang: An American Saga.

I was drawn to this show because I love Wu-Tang Clan so very,
very much. We get into our history with the group and what their
catalog has meant to us.  But let me be VERY clear, you do
not have to be a Wu-Tang Clan fan (although, why wouldn't you
be?) nor do you have to even know who Wu-Tang is (again, why
wouldn't you know?) to enjoy this show because at its core, it is
excellent storytelling and equally amazing acting.  Good
television is good television!

Normally, I would do a discussion about the pilot episode as a
gateway for listeners to a show. But I couldn't resist the
spectacular episode 6 of season 2 - "Protect Ya Neck" - for the
topic of this discussion.  It perfectly exemplifies why this
show is much see television. And Candi, who had not watched any
of the series before, agreed that it was a perfectly fine
introduction to the show and she did not feel lost - so take the
leap! Listen to our discussion and check out the episode. And
once you check out the episode, go back and start from the
beginning. Depending on your country, it will be available on
either Hulu or Disney Plus.

I timed this release to coincide with the Season 3 premiere.
Season 3 is the final season of the series, so I wanted to honor
it by discussing one of the strongest episodes of the series to
hopefully get this great show on your radar. This is a cast of
superstars and I'm so happy that this series introduced me to
each and every one of them.

It made my heart so full - which you'll hear in my terrible
attempts at dropping some of my favorite Wu verses - to do this
episode as a love letter to both the rap group I love so very
much and the brilliant, talented cast who brought this story to
life.

Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult
language, and we have a good time!
