  1. MOST pretentious episode ever? 'This is a good performance, trust me I would know.' Yikes, I'm outta here.

  2. Watched every episode, some of them more than once. First time skipping 2 episodes in a row. Was fun while it lasted.

  3. Thanks Bryan for mentioning Ta-Nehisi Coates,

    Hopefully people look at what Ta-Nehisi Coates "actually" says (not what others say about him).

    It is so strange for me over the years seeing the polarization of negative inferences people say or write regarding Ta-Nehisi Coates. I feel like I am on a different planet listening to people speak as if Ta-Nehisi Coates is speaking/writing something 4 tongues removed from English.

    I read/listened to Richard Rothstein's, book "The Color of Law" because of Ta-Nehisi Coates talk with him.

    It was weird to read(listen to lol) After reading it I felt overwhelmed by the extent of the government’s involvement.

    (Youtube synopsis about the book ->)In this rigorous examination of U.S. housing policy, Rothstein exposes a century of unconstitutional federal, state, and local laws designed to segregate American cities. He combines legal research with heartbreaking human stories to demonstrate the history and impact of this government push for segregation, including its influence on tragedies like those in Ferguson and Baltimore. The Color of Law is the first book to debunk the myth that racial segregation after Jim Crow arose from private prejudice, and it provides an entirely new perspective on our segregated neighborhoods—and new strategies to address the injustices that divide them.

    You kind of know it happened, but nothing is ever presented by fact in the way this book does.
    It is the scope and progression of what happened that is baffling for me but understandable.

    I like that the book stuck to the law and it's effect on everyone in America.
    It gave reason to stereotypes by explaining "why" vs disconnected "woh is me" or "woh is them" responses I hear to often from SJW of our time.

    It was disturbing but comforting to know the "real" or "factual" results certain thoughts put into action will cause.
    The effect really poor law (i.e. stopping "equality of opportunities", not "equality of outcome"!) can have. Yes, racial issues are involved in the book but it is the "laws put into action" parts that really gave me the, "eeeeewwwww!?! WTF!?!" heebi jeebies of how far weak (fearful) people will go to use struggling "white/black" peoples vulnerable circumstances to keep their standing in society… rather than work on the same moral grounds the majority of us do and respect doing.

    I believe (lol I think I believe) we live in meritocracy. That our work environment should run that way (not sure if I am okay yet in regards to education/schooling in America ie one reason because of this part of history) and I value having a democracy as a way to balance the margins of moral/ethical grounds a community wishes to govern their responsibilities in their community.

    It is sickening to see research like this demonstrate the failure of the system we trust in. lol, Unless you knowingly and willing wanted this type of "head up" on your fellow man then I guess you succeeded?!? but booooooo on you!

  4. Ehhh, tried to find this guy entertaining but 30 mins in I just lost interest…
