Elle Woods is an iconic character, but not an obvious one from Tre'vell  Anderson, author of the new book, We See Each Other: A Black. Trans Journey Through TV and Film. Leave it to the effervescent Tre'vell to bring their signature FANTI gray-area mindset to their Feeling Seen character choice! In this episode, Tre'vell and Jordan look at what it is about Elle Woods that offered Tre'vell a glimpse of what they could be...and consider if future generations of Black, trans folks might be able to feel seen without much mental gymnastics.

Then, Jordan has one quick thing about the WGA strike.

Jiles King is an accomplished theater, television, and film director and producer. In this episode, we talk about taking a chance on yourself to reach your goals in life. Jiles is from Dallas but decided to move to Atlanta to pursue his education. From there, he decided to move to New York to further his education in Film. Putting his faith in God to see his next steps, he eventually moved to Dallas and is doing great things for his home city.

Check out this episode as we talk about priorities, being a culture curator, and how to stay true to yourself despite the pressure around you. A lesson that I learned from this conversation is that what God has for you is for you. Just be obedient and follow his Word.

It's Fresh, sure – but shouldn't a royal classic like this be so much Fresher? That's what we're asking in the latest episode of podcast Rotten Tomatoes Is Wrong.

Guest hosts Yasmina and Tarik  interview filmmaker Merawi Gerima, who discusses his new film Residue. The film puts the spotlight on gentrification in DC, and all the racist, violent baggage and displacement that accompanies it. 

They discuss the process of 'community filmmaking' that helped create the film, the role of capital in dictating creative directing choices, the importance of Black film and narrative-shaping, the Gerima  legacy of filmmaking and community building, the power of DC's go-go music, and much more.
