Awww snap ya'll, it's the end of the season! In this episode, ATLien Kalena (@KalebaPlz) of the ReelSnobs podcast (@ReelSnobs) joins us to talk about Donald Glover's blackness hurricane of a show, Atlanta. In the first half, Kalena eloquently goes in on the history of the black sitcom and understanding the relationship between real-life blackness and blackness on-screen. From there, dap (@dapisdope) steers the discussion towards depictions of black poverty and they discuss their favorite moments from the show itself. Interlude at 46m45s. In the second half of the show, the two discuss the ReelSnobs podcast (both past and present) and Kalena's adventures in Atlanta's film industry. From her own origins to a few major keys for budding film professionals, she tells all. Things wind down with RD recommendations and a very militant sidenote from Mr. House Timbs himself.
