Episode notes

On this week’s episode, hosts jarrett hill and Tre’vell Anderson give Artificial Intelligence the FANTI treatment. On the plus side, jarrett finds Siri incredibly helpful, and asks her to set alarms for him multiple times a day. But they also share some concerns, like AI bots taking over journalists’ jobs or programs making it easier for students to get away with plagiarism. Plus, jarrett and Tre’vell give Janelle Monae her flowers for Age of Pleasure, the new album that’s been ruffling feathers since it’s been out. And later, our hosts discuss the history that was made this past Sunday at the Tony Awards, as J. Harrison Ghee and Alex Newell become the first openly non – binary actors to ever win a Tony.

About the show

Sometimes the people, places, and things we love don’t love us back. We’re fans, but we also have some ANTI- feelings toward them. Every week on FANTI, journalists Tre’vell Anderson and jarrett hill bring their pop culture and political expertise to things we must stan and stand up against. FANTI is a place where nuance reigns supreme with energetic, complicated, and sometimes difficult conversations that bring deep knowledge and thoughtful perspective to the things we love and rage about, from the White House to the Real House(wives).
