Karen is joined this week by Scott Poulson-Bryant (a co-founding editor of Vibe magazine, author and professor at the University of Michigan), and Ebony Elizabeth Thomas, the author of The Dark Fantastic: Race and the Imagination from Harry Potter to The Hunger Games. Ebony is a Detroit native who is also a professor at the University of Michigan. The trio get together for some wide-ranging cawffee tawk about pop culture habits across the spectrum of GenX (Scott was born in ‘66, KT in ‘73, and Ebony in ‘77). We start with love for the dearly departed Tina Turner, and focus on the year 1984, with detours into the 1970s, as well as our opinions on who wins the zaddystakes between Pacino and DeNiro. Plus, we get into our childhood love of libraries long before the internet, and fantasy realms like The Neverending Story and Dark Crystal. Karen forces everyone to talk about The Ultimatum: Queer Love, while revealing more about her internet induction into gaylorism. Songs of the week range from Tina, to pianos in the dark, to reimaginings of Alicia Keys through the lens of Bridgerton.
