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? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

We see The Sci-Fi Christian, in all its iterations, as being about the collision between faith and nerdom. We believe that good genre fiction is about more than just entertainment. We seek to engage with the themes and philosophies behind our favorite stories, wrestling with the big ideas within speculative fiction. We’re unabashedly nerdy and unabashedly Christian. Even if your faith background differs from ours, we look forward to interacting with you at The Sci-Fi Christian!

If you're like Matt Gourley (Superego, Drunk History, Conan O'Brien Needs A Friend), then you know all the classic movie and television scenes so well it's like you were in the room when they happened. Well, you weren't. And neither was he. But the people Matt interviews were! Listen in as they tell the inside stories of how cinema and television history was made from a fly-on-the-wall perspective you've never heard. Hosted on Acast.

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today I covered S3E17: Ronald McDonald House, which aired on February 6, 1988. In this episode Jamie stages a play to help a boy cope with leukemia. I remember when I finished Season 2 and I was so excited for this episode, now that I've seen it, I can say I was a little let down. I guess I was hoping for a little more after school special feel with a splash of emotion like the Season 2 Premiere episode Chewed Out. I guess I wanted more from this episode and it kind of went cornball-ish towards the end. The second episode I covered S3E18: The Russians Are Coming, which aired on February 13, 1988. In this episode Vicki competes with a Soviet robot. I gotta say this was fun and entertaining episode. It really helped pick my spirits up from the last episode. I guess Ted's not the only one who can build a child robot. I was floored when I discovered the reveal, I was expecting Season 1 Harriet's robot, more plastic less flesh like material. I hope you enjoy the Podcast Episode and I'll see you in September with the next two as we make our way to the end of Season 3.
