Episode notes

Get ready for some hot winter hot topics! First up the wonder twins react to the the live action remake of Aladdin. James has the inside scoop because he’s in the “industry”, and is upset, but not because of the reason you think. From there the twins easily go on a Robyn Williams tangent, which brings up the question of just why is Sally Field triggering for James? Will Nnekay entreat us with some live music? James gives his hand at ASMR, could this be a new career for him?  Which actor dominated the box office last year? The sailor gay kiss around the world has conservatives in a TWIST! Do blue characters on kids shows tend to connotate blackness? Did Marvel try to push Iceman back into the closet??? Nnekay has a spoiler free review of Aquaman- it’s ridiculous. James watched John Cho’s suspense thriller Searching- and it’s so good, you’ve never seen anything like it! Then for the main event we breakdown Gabrielle Union’s “Breaking In”. We watched it, so you don’t have to! The New year, new us continues!
