Why White People Love Wakanda Mar 05, 2020

Show notes

A Tough Question: Should journalists vote?

That’s this week’s tough question, inspired by a New York Times article No Politics Till the 7th Date? How Journalists Stay Impartial. In particular, Tre’Vell and Jarrett responded to what journalist Peter Baker said:

As reporters, our job is to observe, not participate, and so to that end, I don’t belong to any political party, I don’t belong to any non-journalism organization, I don’t support any candidate, I don’t give money to interest groups and I don’t vote.

Spoiler alert: Tre’Vell and Jarrett don’t share this opinion.

Wendy Williams, How YOU Doin’? You Okay Girl? (ft. Shar Jossell) Feb 20, 2020

Show notes

Tre’Vell and Jarrett are joined this week by special guest--and Wendy Williams stan--Shar Jossell. Once again, they had an entirely different show planned out and then...Wendy said some stuff, apologized, and said some more stuff.

Tune in to hear them grapple with the gaffe queen they love...kinda.

Why You’re Wrong About Gayle King and Kobe Bryant Feb 13, 2020

Show notes

On this week’s show, Tre’Vell gives us a quick run through of the highs and lows of this year’s Oscars. Spoiler alert: Billy Porter’s outfit gives them feelings.

Kevin Hart Feb 06, 2020

Show notes

Welcome to FANTI, a podcast about being a fan when the people and things you love don’t always do right! Your hosts, Tre’vell Anderson and Jarrett Hill are here to help you navigate the complex and complicated conversations about the gray areas in our lives.
In our first episode Tre’vell shares the story of an Iowa Democratic Caucus voter who somehow didn’t know Mayor Pete is gay in a segment called Pass the Popcorn. Our FANTI topic for the week is Kevin Hart, as we revisit his Oscars controversy and discuss how he’s still navigating the consequences a year later. And make sure to stick around for our segment Dis/Honorable mentions where we’ll shout out (and sometimes shout at) those who made the news this week.

FANTI - Teaser Feb 03, 2020

Show notes

Sometimes the people, places, and things we love don't love us back. We're fans, but we also have some ANTI- feelings toward them. Every week on FANTI, journalists Tre'vell Anderson and Jarrett Hill bring their pop culture and political expertise to things we must stan and stand up against. FANTI is a place where nuance reigns supreme with energetic, complicated, and sometimes difficult conversations that bring deep knowledge and thoughtful perspective to the things we love and rage about, from the White House to the Real House(wives).

Coming soon to Maximum Fun.
