In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole?

Music is one of those topics we seem to get endless questions and comments about, so finally we've created an episode all about it. It's too much to fit into one episode though, so we made two. This is the first, all about the artistic part of picking music: why it's important, where to find it, and how to know if you did it right. Then we introduce something Soo Zee finds hugely entertaining. It's called "The Music Game." Show notes: • Leigh mentions some of the playlists we've made. We thought it might be fun for you to hear some of what we like. Here's three different playlists. 1) Almost Summer Days playlist: http://apple.co/1XAWgDx 2) Almost Summer Nights playlist: http://apple.co/1NzdHlF 3)Goodbye, Summer playlist: http://apple.co/2bB1yzi • Our friend's favorite Do Stuff video is this one about Sparkly https://youtu.be/r7YyTJj3BOE • During "The Music Game" one of the songs reminds us of a nonsense informercial. When we talk about "How to make a plumbus" this is what we mean https://youtu.be/SWMGd_rzRdY • That "Transylvania Castle" sounding music was from this video about Turning 30 https://youtu.be/jhubRevTa10 • We talk a little bit about how Steven Spielberg used John William's Jaws theme, but there's so much more amazing detail about how they use it to cue the appearance of the shark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQKLJ2MuHvY We hope you liked this episode. If you did, let us know! We're over on twitter @soozee324 and @ltcooper, on Instagram @doevenmorestuff, or on iTunes. If you leave us a review it helps us bunches.
