Roll Bounce (2005) Jul 25, 2024

Show notes

Vincent reveals the origin of Chicken & Waffles and shares his favorite breakfast spot for the sweet and savory. The list of un-remake-able Black films ain't as long as we think. 2005 was an incredible year for starts (Grey's Anatomy; YouTube), stops (Luther Vandross; Shirley Chisholm), and Bow Wow (Roll Bounce, the movie!)
