Hey Guys,
Keep up the Underground reviews! I might be asking a lot, but I’d love an official spot for Underground just like you guys do with “Dem Thrones”. Harriet Tubman is such a great heroine. Last year my wife and I went and traced Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Scenic Byway. Back then, they were still in the process of building the Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Visitor’s Center. I think it’s finished now so I plan to go back.Visiting the plantation where she spent her youth, the store where Harriet got hit with the iron weight, brought me to tears a couple of times. It was cool. Everyone should take time to visit. I agree with you guys, I could see her being portrayed in a fictional “John Wick” type motion picture. Shiiiiiitt! Hollywood did the same thing with Abraham Lincoln. Remember “Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter”. I’d pay 3-D, IMAX money just to see a “Harriet Tubman, Slaver Hunter” franchise. I guess it’s the nerd in me.
Anyway, you guys need to check out the 2-part Harriet Tubman episode on “Stuff you missed in history class” very good. Also, check out the 2-part episode on Bayard Rustin. I found out on the podcast that dude Adam Clayton Powell was a shady nigga. In 1960, Rustin & MLK was planning on doing a nonviolent protest at the Democratic National convention. When Powell found out, he blackmailed King,threatened to tell the press that King was involved in a homosexual affair with Rustin So, of course, MLK backed out and called off the plans.
Great show guys. Keep up the good work!
Sup Rod, Justin, and Karen
Bros the interlacing of Kendrick is awesome and runs parallel with ya’lls brand of Black Excellence… Levels to this shit indeed.
Along with
Rod I’ve gotten sick knowing my parents onslaught was coming for me. Never that sick.
When my grandmother passed I was young and it really got to me, I remember waking up in the middle of the night and between all my grief and church pot luck food (message) I began upchucking. Sadly my sisters were sleeping in the room and it got on their…..Hair. My mother wanted to whoop my ass so bad, my four little sisters were crying, and all i could do was give individual apologies.
I love the way y’all embrace African American History. Inspired me to actually go do some research on our cultural history in america. The fact that Fredrick Douglas was a driving factor in not only getting African Americans into the army, but also was called on by the Government to stir up recruitment, and even enlisted his own sons in the war mind blowing. I don’t remember any teachers bringing that up in school surprise.
NIgga my granny use to play In the Heat of the Night, Yall had me singing my lungs out and getting my life with the theme song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbP-XpC-kTA
PS
Karen you, looked amazing at revolt con, and I love what you’ve done with your hair.
Justin when you gonna get a current gen video game system?
Alright yall I got start writing my Nerd Off email
Stay Black wit
Peace & love
What up Rod, Karen and J. I85,
I hope yall are having a good week, I just wanted to ask Justin real quick what he thought about the Housewives of Atlanta reunion. We’re on part 1 of 4 and my mind is already going crazy. I know she ain’t shit, but Porsha wore that black “frick” onesie so I can’t get mad at her despite her rape claims. I’m more surprised at Phaedra because she is fucking up! I don’t know what’s up or down when it comes to her. You mean to tell me Apollo has a new woman but still ain’t divorced? I wonder if this mess could hurt her as a lawyer. Having said all that, Phaedra did wear that grey “frack” onesie so I really can’t be mad at her either.
If you’re still watching Potomac, how are you liking the ladies so far? I like Monique and her having to deal with big momma-in-law. Robin just needs to do better.
Thanks for the great shows as always, on Saturday I’ll be going to see the Decepticomics in Atlanta. I never would’ve known about them if it wasn’t for yall and the podcast.
Peace,
Adrian (AJ)
Rod,
Since i do this for a living, only refer to me as “premium member.”
A while back you had a back and forth about the forms that this nigga
knew about that would get ppl out of child support.
This form actually exists and it attached.
It’s actually used by attorney’s in cases that are consented to, but
the screening department actually calls the plaintiff’s and
defendant’s at the hearing to verify the information. So clearly he’d
would have to have a network of fuckery lined up to commit this big
con.
I know you guys don’t want submissions for the “guess the race”
segment, but this gem came across the legal journal today and I had to
share. All documents which are of public record are attached. Enjoy.

What up Rod, Karen, and J. Trill,
For a good week now I’ve been hearing everybody’s comments and opinions about Kendrick Lamar and “Humble”. The song is the jam but I do want to know what my favorite hoteps, Abba and Tut, have to say about the video. Next time they’re in the building it’d be cool to hear about their opinion.
Y’all, I’ll go ahead and admit right now that I ain’t shit. Last week on Housewives I was trying to be mad about Porsha and her lying until she put that black onesie on. Nigga. Can we give that cameraman an Emmy for that cinematography? But did you hear what happened to Phaedra? Rumor is she ain’t on the show next season due to her lying about divorce and Kandi’s affairs. We’ll see if it’s true or not, who are you riding with up in Potomac?
Peace y’all, have a good weekend,
AJ
