Ep. 144 - The Game of British Thrones May 15, 2019

Show notes

Greetings and salutations friends, lovers and bammas alike, The BLR crew is back like we never left. This week on the show we talk about the Black women behind everyone's favorite racially ambiguous white woman and her prison reform efforts. Should we applaud everything that helps Black folk, even if those helping don't have a full appreciation for problem? Also this week, the Duchess of Sussex moves one step closer to pulling off the greatest long con in history with the birth of lil Archie. She's a Red Wedding away from the throne and we ain't even mad. We are mad about the last season of Game of Thrones (well, some of us are) and we'll talk about it. Oh, and have you heard of "Loqueesha?" All this and more, this week on the Brown Liquor Report. #DontStopListenListen #BLR

Ep. 143 - Don't Run, Joe Apr 30, 2019

Show notes

Greetings and salutations friends, lovers and bammas alike. This week on the show we discussed the "fifty-leven" Democrats running for President. Who had the best week, worst week and who we think has the most baggage and probably shouldn't be running (SPOILER: it's Joe Biden; Joe Biden shouldn't be running). We also talked about the franchise of currently and formerly incarcerated people and what that means to our body politic. Also, is Kanye the new Jim Jones? All that and more, this week or The Brown Liquor Report. #DontStopListenListen #BLR

Ep. 140 - Everybody Mad Apr 02, 2019

Show notes

Greetings and salutations friends, lovers and bammas alike. Another week has passed and the TL has pissed everybody off in one way or another. From Jussie Smollett pissing off racists, homophobes, Rahm Emanuel, and Chicago PD's 2019 Eddie Winslow; to Cardi pissing of misogynists and Betsy DeVos pissing off decent human beings everywhere. To quote O.T. Genasis: "Errybody Mad." Stick with us as we hold your hand through all this foolishness and much more, this week on the Brown Liquor Report. #DontStopListenListen

Greetings and salutations friends lovers and bammas alike. The BLR crew is back to bring you all the news worthy to talk shit about. This week we cover the pleasant pettiness of Dr. Dre telling B list celebrities to step their privilege up, how reparations is working its way into the 2020 conversation and Uncle Biden ain't fooling nobody with those "feelers" about our Stacey Abrams. Elsewhere William Barr said TL, DR to the Mueller Report and everyone is freaking out, but don't worry, we hold your hands through the worst of it. The punchline remains the same, vote, register others to vote and hold those you vote for accountable. All this and more this week on the Brown Liquor Report. #Dontstoplistenlisten

Ep. 137 - "2019 Carl Winslow" is a Fraud Feb 26, 2019

Show notes

Greetings and salutations, friends, lovers and bammas alike. This week we, the crew discussed how marginalized folks are never seen as "perfect plaintiffs" in the court of public opinion. From how many of us automatically trust the word of Chicago PD's "2019 Carl Winslow" in the Jussie Smollett fiasco; to Marsha Johnson to people that don't seem to fit the mold of "victim" like Terry Crews: folks at the fringes never seem to have the public on their side in court. Elsewhere, glitches in the matrix have revealed themselves as we explain why your political timeline has become a vacuous hellscape. SPOILER ALERT: it's racism. All this and more, this week on The Brown Liquor Report. #DontStopListenListen
