Those of you you who've been rocking with APCF since day one know I originally hosted the I Black Man Podcast, and I've been on hiatus from it for quite some time.

Hair Universe COMPLETE: Steven Universe Movie/Hair Love Review

Fri, 24 Jan 2020 05:05:00 +0000

No, we didn't upload the same episode twice...we'd never play you like that. Instead of trying to chop this up into 2-3 episodes I felt doing anything other than releasing this in it's entirety would be an injustice. This originally started off as my daughters bum-rushing me and making me review the Steven Universe Movie, which they did. Long story short due to the timing of things I was able to watch and review Matthew A. Perry's Hair Love animated Short with both my oldest two daughters AND my Mom! Be forewarned now; the review with my Mother goes way off just reviewing, we talk about colorism, racism, propaganda and just blackness in general. We're sure you'll enjoy this episode and you might even learn something! Please remember to subscribe and to leave us a comment on iTunes.

Episode 3: Riff or Review for Avengers Endgame

Wed, 01 May 2019 03:41:05 +0000

For your listening pleasure we present Map's Riff or Review of Avengers: Endgame! We call it Riff OR Review because honestly we can't tell which one it is! lol

I've always wanted to have a podcast reviewing and discussing comic books, movies, wrestling, anime and etc, but I was always hesitant. I was reluctant because I know how much of a purist I can be and also how hard I am to impress, and I doubted a lot of people would want to hear it. But then my wife gassed me up....and here we are! I admit I may have went in a little hard on Endgame after my initial watching in theaters, but I tried to remain as fair as possible. I hope you guys enjoy it! And lemme know if you think this counts as a riff or as a review. Send a email or voice message to eyeblackmanpodcast@gmail.com, or hit me on the ol instabook or facegram!
