Episode 5: A Calm Conversation About Iron Fist and Race
Manage episode 211592558 series 2324421
With Anthony out sick, Chris and Izzy bring in MND’s own Adam Barnhardt (@adambarnhardt) to talk about a subject that surely no one will get upset about! This trio of two Asians and a white guy dive straight into the casting controversy over Finn Jones as Iron Fist, and discuss the origins of the comic’s obsession with Asian culture and mysticism. We contemplate: would the show have been any different if an Asian-American performer were cast instead? Surely we can all come to an agreement here.
