Do you and your friends speak in movie quotes? Do you trade Spongebob memes back and forth with your loved ones? Do you have to rely on the ”Are You Still Watching?” message to let you know it’s time to bathe and stop procrastinating? If you answered yes to any (or all) of these questions, come hang out with us every other week! Media can play a huge role in shaping who we are. Sometimes it makes us idolize Jeff Goldblum as a sex symbol. Sometimes a lack of representation makes you feel invisible. As hosts, siblings Carie and Ross will analyze this phenomenon by breaking down a favorite movie or television show and how the sights, sounds, and messages of media have followed our generation throughout our lives. So pour your favorite beverage, relax, and explore how our shared experiences with movies and television messed us up as a generation. There will be laughter, there will be sadness, and THERE WILL BE discussions about homosexual subtext in children’s animation. Theme Song by Tune Tank: https://tunetank.com/tracks/5611-vacation

We know this is a long one, folx, but frankly, there are too many people watching The Help (2011) right now, and we did not hold back. This week, the siblings attempt to have a productive conversation about why White Savior Movies can give audiences false impressions about racial reconciliation and why these narratives are built for White Comfort.
Here's a list of movies that are a better use of your time right now:
13th (dir. Ava DuVernay)|Moonlight (dir. Barry Jenkins) |The Hate U Give (dir. George Tillman Jr.) | Dear White People (dir. Justin Simien)
