Dolemite Is My Name - We're back!

Send us a text


It might be April 1st, but this is no joke - we are back! 
Grab your wine and join us for a discussion of Netflix’s Dolemite
Is My Name. 


2:16 - Listener ToastWe missed our lovely
listeners!  Check out our new segment in which we raise our
glasses and toast our listeners for their support.  


8:15 - Where ya’ll been?We explain where the f*ck
we’ve been during our hiatus.


23:33 - Sh*t we liked and sh*t we didn’t like.We get
into the sh*t we liked - socialist airlines are great!  As
for the sh*t we didn’t like, racism and xenophobia are NEVER
acceptable - not even during a pandemic.  Be kind, wash your
hands, and stay the f*ck at home! 


42:28 - Corona CornerWe started a new segment in
which we will be making a few “Rona recs” to lift your
spirits.  Kristine had a ball taking a virtual dance class
with Debbie Allen.  Jocelyn is all about D-Nice’s Club
Quarantine on Instagram.


54:03 - Dolemite Is My NameDolemite Is My Name is a
fun, delightful film and was the perfect choice for our return
from hiatus.  We begin by discussing our general experience
with Blaxploitation films and the cultural significance of Rudy
Ray Moore.  Next, we talk about our overall reaction to the
film and share our favorite scenes.  We then share our MVP
performances - Eddie Murphy is brilliant as Rudy Ray Moore and
Da’Vine Joy Randolph is a revelation as Lady Reed.  We
salute the Oscar winning Ruth Carter’s spectacular work on the
70s-era fashions in the film. Give us all of the hats, leather
jackets, and jumpsuits! Of course, no discussion would be
complete without getting a little thirsty.  We get into the
objects of our thirst in the film and do a little
fancasting.

has been treating us all.

These Italian mayors are fed up and want you to stay home!
