Cheers, to our avid and faithful listenership who have followed us to our new home, BTalk 100. Check out a new installment of The Mid Week in Review as engineered by the mighty Afronerd Radio Steam Engine airing this Wednesday at 8pm eastern. Join your friendly neighborhood (and possibly birding) AFROnerdist broadcasters as they discuss the following hot topics: we discuss the videos that shook the world-the unfortunate death (Eric Garner 2.0?) of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers and the "Karen" moment involving avid Central Park birder and former Marvel Comics editor, Christian Cooper (and his equally blerdic sister, Melody Cooper of the Omni comic) who were bird watching in Central Park when all hell broke loose; and in more racial strife, comedian/talk show host, Jimmy Fallon is apologizing for a 20 year old SNL skit pertaining to his blackface impersonation of Chris Rock; and then there's hip hop artist, Doja Cat's internalized/externalized racial battle being played out on social media; interesting....Gayle King gets emotional about the recent spate of black men being endangered due to the current racial zeitgeist; a recent Comicbook.com piece posits that there might be more reboots to come based on the success of the Snyder Cut fan movement; just what's with the Shaun King allegations regarding his Frederick Douglass reboot of The North Star according to the Daily Beast?; we never did speak about the Cyberpunk 2077 upcoming video game and it's genitalia customization feature (here we go); ok, so is Mike Tyson really going to step back into the ring? And apparently, Mad Magazine didn't go away and is available via subscription (who knew?); a Variety magazine article about how hip hop mogul Russell Simmons; accusers (per the On The Record doc) believe that the music industry will never have its #Metoo moment (or a #blacktoo version according to Dburt); Call live-#508-645-0100.
