A bite-sized pop culture conversation with your favorite Queer, unfriendly Black hotties.

00:54.60
Nandi K
Today we're unfriendly because for some reason white people never imagined black people in the future. Hmm. I'm Nandi Kayy.

01:04.16
Vance 😈
And I'm Vance Gowe. Um, what a, what a, what an astute observation. These motherfuckers, I feel like if they had it their way, it would just be like, you know, Lord of the Rings, the first OG Tolkien.

Nandi K
Well yes.

01:15.96

Historically accurate.

01:39.16
Nandi K
Okay, so you telling me you talking about history, but there's hella dragons in this bitch. Dragons aren't fucking real, you bitch.

01:46.31
Vance 😈
Listen. in you you ever see that meme where it's like they could get like the dragon's booty hole like accurate but when they got a design hair for black people in the in the games

01:55.85
Nandi K
It would just be like jigaboo hair.

01:57.49
Vance 😈
If... right it'd be it'd be them two hairstyles it'd be that uh well you know the word the killmonger

02:01.84

02:05.67
Vance 😈
Look.

02:06.61

Yo, when they, Black Panther. You know, like... I hate that white people had access to that because...

02:16.31
Vance 😈

Nandi K
Now my mom wasn't a preacher's wife.

03:17.30
Vance 😈
All right.

Nandi K
Yeah.

03:26.07

03:36.89
Vance 😈
She abused the daughter too.

03:38.74
Nandi K
Yes.

03:39.43

Nandi K
Yeah. No, no.

04:18.75
Vance 😈
What y 'all think so funny?

04:21.74
Nandi K
Ciao. Well... What are we talking about today, Vance?

04:24.92
Vance 😈
all right so today we're talking about i feel like this is a continuation of our conversation about imagination But um the title is Bonnets and Durags in Space.

04:36.27
Vance 😈
So. I mean, I think you got it. I think you got it. But just like. I'm saying that. What do you think when I say that? Just what do you think of?

04:45.17
Nandi K
Well, I just think of Niggas in space like...

04:48.41
Vance 😈
I mean yes.

04:48.84
Nandi K
Yeah, niggas in space. How do we, how is it different than, you know, crackers in space?

04:56.12
Vance 😈
Right. Right. and I will say, I mean, like we already talked about Black Panther, but like I think um the what got me thinking about this, I've been thinking about this for a thousand years, but the biggest thing that got me thinking about this was actually um Star Trek Discovery, which is...

05:01.57
Nandi K
Mm-hmm.

05:10.92
Vance 😈
The second to last. ah like most current star star trek. main character was Sonequa Green Martin um

05:15.09
Nandi K
Yes.

05:18.81
Nandi K
Yes, I remember when you first told me about the fact that she had braids.

05:19.84
Vance 😈
Pretty. Yes.

05:23.48
Nandi K
I said, oh!

05:23.67
Vance 😈
Yes. Yes. That was it. Cause she, um, uh, early season she had, she had like her curls, which was great. Right?

05:31.46
Nandi K
Mhm.

05:31.23
Vance 😈
Like I thought it was dope. Then I think season two or three, she had her box braids and they were just. And she was a captain. And.

05:38.20
Nandi K
Yes!

05:39.07
Vance 😈
I think for me, whatever. I mean, I know this feels basic, but I just really was like, I don't think I've seen this. And I felt really happy and like. Because if she got braids, that means somebody had to braid her hair. And um we joked about this in our group chat.

05:52.56
Nandi K
Yes. If that, then what else?
05:55.54
Vance 😈
right right so like i'm like i could only imagine this captain being like i will not be here for the next three days

06:03.72
Nandi K
Um...

06:03.93
Vance 😈
And then she leaves and she comes back with new hair.

06:06.65
Nandi K
Yeah.

06:07.28
Vance 😈
And then the alien Nigga is like, did you did you do something to your hair? And it's like, you dumb bitch.

06:13.59
Nandi K
oh Oh my God. Because also, you know, as a casual. Star Trek watch i used to watch star trek with my dad a lot growing up um because it came on like before Jeopardy

06:23.11
Vance 😈
Mm hmm.

06:27.24
Vance 😈
Yep.

06:27.65
Nandi K
did you know we didn't have cable well my dad actually did have cable anyways All the other Black women who have ever been on Star Trek had like natural hair.

06:38.07
Vance 😈
Oh, okay, okay.

06:38.70
Nandi K
That was like quaffed.

06:40.65
Vance 😈
Okay.

06:40.66
Nandi K
So like. styled up even when you go back to um

06:46.11
Vance 😈
Nichols.

06:46.00
Nandi K
the first Lieutenant Uhura.

06:47.51
Vance 😈
Uh. it Yeah, yeah, Michelle Nichelle Nichols?

06:51.12
Nandi K
Nichelle Nichols yeah.

06:52.18
Vance 😈
yeah yeah yeah

06:53.01
Nandi K
when you see her hair she has like a coif like it's straightened and short and pinned together and then

06:53.14
Vance 😈
Love her

06:56.80
Vance 😈
Yes. Yes.

07:00.79
Nandi K
Whoopi on... um

07:03.75
Vance 😈
She had a head wrap most of the time

07:05.67
Nandi K
Yeah.

07:07.09
Vance 😈
What was her name?

07:07.12
Nandi K
So...

07:07.73
Vance 😈
I forgot her name. Shit.

07:08.73
Nandi K
I can't remember her name either um

07:09.81
Vance 😈
Aaron.

07:13.32
Vance 😈
No, okay.

07:14.76
Nandi K
ah Yeah, I forgot who...

07:17.26
Vance 😈
Fuck I know. it I'm sorry. Yeah anyway

07:19.12
Nandi K
Oh, what's it? Good night. Guinan? Guinan.

07:22.37
Vance 😈
It was good. I think that's right.

07:23.89
Nandi K
Good night.

07:23.97
Vance 😈
That's right

07:24.84
Nandi K
Anyway, yeah, she wore like a head cover.

07:24.76
Vance 😈
She was like the, yeah.

07:27.84
Nandi K
Her hair was like kind of showing from the bottom, but. um yeah so when you told me that i was like oh my god somebody with braids because of what it implies. about. the world that means that there's somewhere for her to go get her braids done and what is an inter Galactic.

07:43.48
Vance 😈
Yes.

07:46.29
Vance 😈
Yes, a salon in space

07:50.60
Nandi K
Bray is shop. Like.

07:52.85
Vance 😈
Right. Right. Burn your own hair, sis. There's a teleporter. like If you're late...

07:59.53
Nandi K
Oh my God.

08:00.09
Vance 😈
they They might really be mad at you, like, bitch, you got teleportation. what you

08:04.29
Nandi K
okay but like do you think they have multiple people working on a head or do you think they have alien beings with multiple hands working on a head

08:11.43
Vance 😈
Bitch. I think a six-handed person, I think a six-armed robot, not robot, alien would be obviously ideal.

08:18.37
Nandi K
Mm-hmm.

08:20.45
Vance 😈
Um. I think there might be a machine that helps, right?

08:23.57
Nandi K
Oooh A machine?

08:23.53
Vance 😈
like I…

08:27.05
Nandi K
No.

08:27.17
Vance 😈
Remember, we talked about this in the group chat, and Erica said, ah no, no, no, it takes it takes just the same amount of time. And I said, that's hilarious, because I could imagine it would.

08:36.86
Nandi K
I'm dead.

08:37.80
Vance 😈
It's still going to take three days.

08:38.05
Nandi K
No, I want to think that it takes less time.

08:41.54
Vance 😈
What, like, like...

08:41.72
Nandi K
like

08:43.12
Vance 😈
ah Half a day.

08:45.37
Nandi K
I mean, that's... still how long That's how long it takes now. So like... I think that the time for braiding has been cut by two thirds. So it only takes a third of the time that it takes now. So if you're getting a style that used to take three days, Now it takes one.

09:04.80
Vance 😈
Like a day See you today.

09:06.29
Nandi K
If it took 12 hours, now it takes... four hours, you know?

09:10.43
Vance 😈
i'm I'm into that. And that makes sense. We're 2 ,000 years or however long they are in the future.

09:14.53
Nandi K
Yeah, why are we still using these same archaic? But I'm not letting a machine braid my hair because here's the thing about being Black as well. Like... I need hands. Like I'm not letting a machine do it. Like it's sacred. I don't care if it's like alien hands, but it's gotta be hands.

09:35.53
Vance 😈
I think the six arm.

09:35.93
Nandi K
Because how do you get the parts precise? like

09:38.32
Vance 😈
Right. Right. I think the six arms and then like, they gotta be like a good, they gotta be like a math alien.

09:41.01
Nandi K
Yeah.

09:43.87
Vance 😈
Like, you know, alien, like, like the Vulcans might be good at braiding cause they know math.

09:46.77
Nandi K
Yeah! Yeah.

09:49.42
Vance 😈
Do they get the sacred geometry?

09:49.31
Nandi K
and they can just see how many yes oh my god casting spells in your head yeah and then they know exactly how many braids or how many lots you gonna need so they can tell you the exact amount of time it's gonna take

09:52.18
Vance 😈
Yes, yes. Very technical.

09:58.14
Vance 😈
Yes. Yes.

10:02.37
Vance 😈
Yup. the The spatial awareness, like, yep, that's going to be that.

10:03.49
Nandi K
Oh my god. We stand.

10:06.30
Vance 😈
but But that is we, we show in on a tangent, but that is exactly why I brought this up. Cause like, if we're in space with our hair, we weren't a durag in space.

10:12.11
Nandi K
Yeah.

10:16.35
Vance 😈
I mean, you're preserving them waves. That means.

10:18.76
Nandi K
Mm-hmm.

10:19.30
Vance 😈
there's a culture um the new Uhura is dark skin and she got waves in the in the current

10:24.77
Nandi K
Oh! Whoa!

10:26.06
Vance 😈
She got short hair and she got waves. Um.

10:29.43
Nandi K
Is it the chick from 20s?

10:32.50
Vance 😈
Ooh, I don't know if I know 20s. Let me see.

10:35.63
Nandi K
I need to see what, which Star Trek is this current one?

10:38.40
Vance 😈
Uh, uh, it's strange new worlds and she's Uhura. She's a dark skin

10:45.61
Nandi K
Word. You know, I just have to see if this is the person I'm thinking of

10:51.57
Vance 😈
Her name is Celia Rose Goody, I believe.

10:53.23
Nandi K
Oh. I'm in love with Celia Rose.

10:55.28
Vance 😈
Peace. Oh, you know her.

10:55.59
Nandi K

Nandi K

11:11.71
Vance 😈
Okay.

11:11.90
Nandi K
Abubakar Saleem, his real name. I told you I saw him playing this Dungeons & Dragons game on a... show. alive stream show that I watch.

11:22.74
Vance 😈
Mm-hmm.

11:22.87
Nandi K
Celia Rose Gooding was also... on another iteration of that same show. She was So good. She made me cry. She was such a great actress because they're all like actors.

11:35.69
Vance 😈
Nice.

11:38.56
Nandi K
So the drama gets like really high and really intense and she's fine.

11:41.84
Vance 😈
Uh huh.

11:43.16
Nandi K
I just.

11:43.51
Vance 😈
Yeah.

11:44.23
Nandi K
I remember going to look her up like who is this and then I saw she was too young for me

11:48.58
Vance 😈
Yeah, she a baby she's

11:49.06
Nandi K
So I was sad, but...

11:50.05
Vance 😈
26.

11:52.77
Nandi K
yeah she's much too young for me like way too young for me but

11:55.10
Vance 😈
Yeah.

11:57.11
Nandi K
I was like, hello gorgeous.

12:00.42
Vance 😈
Yeah, I saw, um I don't, I watched a couple episodes of the new one, but like I saw the waves and they were talking about it when the first came out. um But yeah, that...

12:08.24
Nandi K
She don't gotta line up though, I see.

12:11.26
Vance 😈
Look, look. the And it...

12:12.43
Nandi K
She got a round one. Let me tell you something.

12:14.13
Vance 😈
Eh.

12:14.78
Nandi K
That just, ew. One thing about me, and people might disagree with me, as somebody who's been getting my haircut for...

12:18.87
Vance 😈
Yeah.

12:24.92
Nandi K
over 15 years who's not a man so like not my whole life but most of my adult life. Y 'all have to get lineups, bro.

12:35.63
Nandi K
like

12:36.02
Vance 😈
Yeah.

12:37.16
Nandi K
Well, it your hairline looks insane.

12:37.58
Vance 😈
Oh.

12:40.41
Nandi K
Like these round hairlines. This man gave me a round hairline for my first barbershop haircut. he fucked me up. I had to grow that shit out and then go to a different barber to be revived.

12:52.43
Vance 😈
And... And why would I want a round hairline? Unless I ask you for one why would you just line it up? It's a line. It's called a lineup for a reason not a roundup

13:00.67
Nandi K
Like... why And ah Barbara's be like, ew, it's feminine. It looks stupid. Yeah, this Her hair does not look...

13:07.32
Vance 😈
And did I ask for it?

13:10.08
Nandi K
This lineup really... Yikes. Because it's like you have waves, so it's not even contained. They can just roll out, go anywhere.

13:19.25
Vance 😈
Well, uh... Free range waves. ah

13:21.75
Nandi K
Free range waves. Nobody wants that.

13:24.56
Vance 😈
She...

13:24.20
Nandi K
Y 'all better go fence them waves in.

13:27.25
Vance 😈
they need to I feel like you could use a little taser. or Not the taser. You know what I'm talking about. You could use the stun laser or whatever to line your head up.

13:35.13
Nandi K
Listen.

13:35.19
Vance 😈
like

13:36.02
Nandi K
i was gonna ask what did the men get hair like do they get lineups like

13:36.03
Vance 😈
It's space.

13:41.72
Vance 😈
On what?

13:42.03
Nandi K
Did they just get lineups in space?

13:42.10
Vance 😈
Star Trek? yeah for sure I mean I think that like

13:46.65
Nandi K
Who doing it? what What does it look like?

13:49.60
Vance 😈
I think.

13:51.19
Nandi K
What a laser.

13:51.50
Vance 😈
Low key. I think a laser could do it all.

13:55.05
Nandi K
Damn.

13:55.90
Vance 😈
Even the fade.

13:57.47
Nandi K
Fuck. You gonna hold your ear down, though, bitch?

13:59.16
Vance 😈
I would be scared to do it. i

14:01.07
Nandi K
I'm scared as fuck.

14:03.22
Vance 😈
You know when they hit the back of your neck?

14:03.37
Nandi K
Hold your ear down bitch, yeah bitch.

14:04.32
Vance 😈
You know when they hit the back of your neck? Yeah. Oh. I... I do not like that because that shit, even when I was a little kid, it feels inappropriate. I get goosebumps when they heat hit the back of my neck.

14:14.34
Nandi K
Hello. You're ticklish.

14:18.10
Vance 😈
He be like, did you moan? I'd be like, nah.

14:20.39
Nandi K
As the oldest daughter. you know i My neck is fortified against heat

14:26.58
Vance 😈
Uh-uh.

14:26.96
Nandi K
D-N. But that's also why I'll never have hair on the back of my neck ever again. Because obviously I'm traumatized. I don't let my hair grow.

16:27.07
Vance 😈
House of Dragon, the whole Valerian family.

16:29.58
Nandi K
yeah, period.

16:29.99
Vance 😈
Um... At first, they were mulattresses and mulattos, and then...

16:36.01
Nandi K
They brought in the niggas.

16:36.15
Vance 😈
This season. The Nigga Niggas came, and now...

16:39.06
Nandi K
No, well, the nigga niggas came towards the end of last season.

16:39.17
Vance 😈
now The best. yes they've been here they've been here but we didn't we you know they didn't become central characters until this season and that scene when they was on that beach after that battle and they were all just like these white people crazy ain't it and i was like ain't this Beautiful.

16:46.77
Nandi K
Yeah.

16:51.60
Nandi K
Well...

16:55.77
Nandi K
They posted a picture. like a behind the scenes picture of them from that and i was like wow this is

17:04.00
Vance 😈
It's...

17:05.09
Nandi K
Like the episode where they were riding dragons, I literally like was getting emotional.

17:05.03
Vance 😈
It's beautiful.

17:11.82
Vance 😈
It's It is.

17:12.09
Nandi K
Like, I was so emotional because I was just like, damn, like, Niggas, they don't be having Niggas riding on dragons.

17:18.52
Vance 😈
For real. No, like, it's...

17:19.49
Nandi K
Like...

17:20.39
Vance 😈
it's Like, I mean, I hate because, you know, the girls be like, listen, I mean, I wrote the question because some of the girls really be like representation don't matter. Um.

17:29.34
Nandi K
I mean, it's not the end-all be-all, but it does matter.

17:31.97
Vance 😈
Definitely not.

17:33.16
Nandi K
You know, it definitely matters.

17:33.74
Vance 😈
And it's like... How could it not? And I think everybody is not like tapped in in a way where like they're an academic and they just feel and know that all this shit.

17:36.89
Nandi K
Thank you.

17:43.26
Vance 😈
So I guess what I'm getting at, if you're a little kid and you never see yourself in these settings, you can't imagine it. So even being a...

17:49.00
Nandi K
I don't know if that's true. I don't think that that's true.

17:51.15
Vance 😈
No, maybe not.

17:51.33
Nandi K
Just because you never see it means you can't imagine it, but it's certainly a lot easier.

17:55.42
Vance 😈
But... I think it helps.

17:57.48
Nandi K
to imagine it when you can see it.

17:59.70
Vance 😈
I think it helps. And I also think it just helps convey the message that you do belong wherever, anywhere.

18:05.06
Nandi K
Yeah, and I also think, you know, I think Black people, we don't need to see. ness it like we don't consider like since we consider white people human beings we don't We can also be like, oh, this human being did this thing, so I can also do this thing.

18:24.23
Vance 😈
So can I, so can I.

18:26.31
Nandi K
White people are the ones.

18:28.19
Vance 😈
Have a hard time

18:29.09
Nandi K
who have a hard time seeing Black people. doing that. I do really think the issue is white people not Black imagination because Black Imagination is persistent.

18:41.09
Nandi K
Like.

18:41.78
Vance 😈
I feel that. I also feel like Even the shows we're talking about. Let's say... Game of Thrones season one.

18:46.90
Nandi K
Yeah.

18:47.48
Vance 😈
When they did not have niggas i think we we looking at it from a black lens anyway which is like the way we talk about it which is how we're able to have fun with it because like we like yeah where it's like i feel like white people they have to have white people in their shit to enjoy it even

18:57.11
Nandi K
Yeah.

19:01.93
Nandi K
they do they be like i don't they be like well i don't understand like i couldn't put myself in the shoes of the character well why do you need to why why can't you just be like a third person watching.

19:14.75
Vance 😈
And I think...

19:15.12
Nandi K
Like when you read books, like I don't insert myself as a character when I'm reading books. I'm watching a story unfold.

19:22.97
Vance 😈
But if you are a human, I think like this season of House of Dragons, the show in general, it's about a family. If you've ever had a family that did not like each other, I think you could kind of get what's going on.

19:31.36
Nandi K
Yeah. I mean, but that's what all of the whole like Song of Ice and Fire is about, right?

19:34.27
Vance 😈
thank you Yeah.

19:37.87
Nandi K
Like, but like George R .R. Martin is fucking white. His shit is based on Tolkien, fucking white. Like, white people... be doing white shit. Like Shout out to the people who did House of the Dragon. Because... They replaced a bunch of people and made them Black. who are not Black in the IP.

19:59.24
Vance 😈
Internet change. Right.

20:01.70
Nandi K
You know, they change a ton and it may.

20:02.14
Vance 😈
And then it changed it.

20:05.63
Nandi K
some of the stories more pronounced because they turn the characters Black and that is huge

20:12.08
Vance 😈
Rob Markman Right. Well, I mean, even though like, Laenor and Rhaenyra, right?

20:16.95
Nandi K
Mm hmm.

20:16.86
Vance 😈
Like, their whole thing. It's funny. It's funny because I think if he was white, then it would be harder to believe. like It would be easier to to lie and say them kids were his kids.

20:24.93
Nandi K
Yeah. Yeah.

20:27.08
Vance 😈
but like he Black these kids ain't Black

20:28.93
Nandi K
Yeah.

20:30.77
Vance 😈
So.

20:30.85
Nandi K
But also like... He was a fucking faggot.

20:34.79
Vance 😈
Yes.

20:34.69
Nandi K
Like.

20:36.12
Vance 😈
When.

20:35.88
Nandi K
It's not Rhaenyra's fault that that Nigga was gay. His parents knew he was fucking gay. She knew he was gay. He knew he was. Everybody knew.

20:43.41
Vance 😈
Everybody knew. everybody Literally everybody knew. Wait, when the uncle when the uncle was like... Them white kids.

20:48.56
Nandi K
BASTARD! Ain't got that head chopped off.

20:51.15
Vance 😈
It was like. he said the salt he said they ain't got salt in their blood we got salt in our blood and yeah he got gripped up

20:57.77
Nandi K
Yeah, he got that head came off.

20:58.06
Vance 😈
Rest in peace, Uncle Vaman.

20:59.88
Nandi K
um I had Men in Black, of course, some of my earliest time.

21:02.99
Vance 😈
Yep. Of course.

21:05.17
Nandi K
I mean, Will Smith. New York City. Them fucking little centipede aliens drinking coffee.

21:11.95
Vance 😈
Yeah.

21:12.76
Nandi K
They was definitely Niggas.

21:13.76
Vance 😈
the roaches

21:14.77
Nandi K
Yeah, I fucked with them. um I also had They Clone Tyrone, which is pretty...

21:19.78
Vance 😈
Fire.

21:20.42
Nandi K
Recent, so great. Another like take on sci-fi that kind of borders on, like I guess, like speculative fiction in some ways.

21:26.13
Vance 😈
Blackploitation

21:28.68
Nandi K
um The Fifth Element.

21:30.39
Vance 😈
Yeah.

21:30.65
Nandi K
because of chris tucker we had a long talk about chris tucker's character before this but like

21:32.90
Vance 😈
Amazing.

21:37.89
Nandi K
everything.

21:38.20
Vance 😈
iconic conic Iconic

21:39.25
Nandi K
Just so iconic, the thing. And then I also added Xenon, Girl of the 21st Century.

21:44.78
Vance 😈
Raven Simone?

21:44.88
Nandi K
Zoom, zoom, zoom. Make my heart go boom, boom.

21:46.70
Vance 😈
Make my heart go boom boom.

21:48.41
Nandi K
My supernova girl.

21:48.71
Vance 😈
God's super number.

21:51.21
Nandi K
That was my shit.

21:51.29
Vance 😈
Fire.

21:52.10
Nandi K
Raven-Symoné was so fucking cute.

21:53.40
Vance 😈
Raven!

21:54.64
Nandi K
She wore so many cute fucking outfits, so many cute hair.

21:56.50
Vance 😈
Yes!

21:59.32
Nandi K
Raven in Xenon Girl of the 21st Century had me thinking, bitch, when we go to space.

22:05.45
Vance 😈
Right right, right

22:06.04
Nandi K
When we go to space, bitch. My outfits, my leggings. Mind you, we were dressing like that for like the next.

22:13.02
Vance 😈
Anyway.

22:13.94
Nandi K
Five to seven years not in space.

22:15.00
Vance 😈
Right.

22:17.04
Nandi K
ah We was wearing leggings like that under shorts.

22:20.04
Vance 😈
The 2000s.

22:21.72
Nandi K
The early aughts were truly a time, but...

22:23.29
Vance 😈
and crazy Look, while I was.

22:25.81
Nandi K
Woo. But that was like Xenon Girl of the 21st Century was my. Shit. Oh my God. I used to watch it all the time.

22:35.06
Vance 😈
um Not on this list, but fantasy. a Witcher. They got some Blacks on there doing some stuff and then I'll

22:40.17
Nandi K
Oh sure. Yeah, they had the Black version.

22:43.44
Vance 😈
Will of time. uh underrated it got cancelled after the third season but they had

22:48.04
Nandi K
i didn't think it was very good

22:49.88
Vance 😈
Um... They had a bunch of Blacks on there. Um.

22:52.54
Nandi K
I saw, but I didn't think it was very good.

22:54.04
Vance 😈
Did you fit? What'd you get?

22:55.69
Nandi K
I got like a few episodes in, I was like, this sucks.

22:56.84
Vance 😈
You finish? I think the first season is kind of whatever. I like the second and third season.

23:02.28
Nandi K
Yeah. Yeah, it's like, if I can't get through the first season, how, in fact, will I make it to the second or the third?

23:09.43
Vance 😈
Well, like they...

23:09.50
Nandi K
I don't watch stuff I don't like. Some people be like, Shauna's also like this, where they're like, well, I want to see what happens. I don't care. When I'm like, I don't like it, I'd be like, I could care less about how this turns out. I'm out because people kept hyping it up, saying it was better than Game of Thrones. I was like... This is not better than Game of Thrones.

23:28.99
Vance 😈
Yeah, that's ah that's a hard sell. Unfortunately, I think all fantasy is going to be compared. To Game of Thrones. Oh.

23:36.38
Nandi K
I think people should stop doing that. I think because people gave me like, oh, this is like. Game of Thrones, but with Niggas? I went to watch it. I said, this is nothing like Game of Thrones. Game of Thrones is a fucking masterpiece. Even with Just Crackers, which I'm totally happy to not be included, right? like Leave me out altogether, bitch. Except for that fucking Misa scene. That's when I started getting mad. But... Leave me out of it. Wheel of time. I think we watched two or three episodes. I said I cannot suffer this any longer.

24:13.01
Vance 😈
Witcher, I feel like, doesn't get that that same descriptor. But to me, Witcher feels like Xena. Like, it's a...

24:19.69
Nandi K
Oh, see, I didn't watch Witcher.

24:20.48
Vance 😈
It's like. oh witcher's like xena and like in a campy way like in that like this If you see it as not that serious and you watch it, it's a decent watch. But if you're like, oh, this is going to be, it's not.

24:31.13
Nandi K
Yeah. Mmm.

24:33.45
Vance 😈
But it's funny. And then this nigga, every episode be like, I stay out of human affairs. And then ah three minutes later, he's all up in human affairs.

24:40.40
Nandi K
In human affairs.

24:41.84
Vance 😈
Yeah. And it's like, that's funny. So like, I think if you watch the show from like that lens, it's funny. If not, it's not a good show. And it got worse. And they cast recast the main character, which is crazy.

24:52.24
Nandi K
I do remember when they recast the main character and people were like, what the fuck? I only know the song from Witcher because it was just, Pass a coin to your Witcher.

24:58.53
Vance 😈
Oh, uh... Toss a coin to your witch. Yeah

25:02.13
Nandi K
Oh, earlier Frenchie. Oh, earlier Frenchie. I was like, oh, that's a banger.

25:07.59
Vance 😈
Not. Not the r and b version now.

25:10.67
Nandi K
Oh well.

25:10.56
Vance 😈
It's a I love her. Uh... Okay. Ooh.

25:14.92
Nandi K
okay well we kind of talked about like is it important that black people are represented in sci-fi and fantasy we kind of talked about that

25:21.80
Vance 😈
Yeah.

25:22.57
Nandi K
It is important.

25:22.64
Vance 😈
Yes.

25:24.94
Nandi K
And also, like there's a lot of ways. It doesn't have to be mainstream representation. Like like you were mentioning before, comics. Always got niggas.

25:32.72
Vance 😈
Oh, comics? ahead of the curve yeah comics books uh comics though always ahead of the curve um I think even, oh, what what I didn't put on here, I know we're talking about Black people, but I think it's important to just mention, like, even disabled people, like, being ah present in these things, right?

25:37.75
Nandi K
Yeah. Yeah.

25:47.10
Nandi K
Mm-hmm. Yes.

25:49.43
Vance 😈
um the creators of Avatar they have a show called uh the dragon prince on netflix

25:54.36
Nandi K
Yes, I i was going to bring that up. ah So good with a deaf character. I started watching that.

25:58.55
Vance 😈
The deaf lady, right?

25:59.79
Nandi K
It was really good.

26:01.38
Vance 😈
um yeah so they got I guess it's ASL.

26:01.67
Nandi K
Yeah.

26:03.58
Vance 😈
I don't know if it's ASL, but they sign.

26:05.73
Nandi K
mm-hmm

26:06.17
Vance 😈
They be signing in the show. She has an interpreter.

26:09.55
Nandi K
mm-hmm

26:09.88
Vance 😈
She's fully involved in combat. um I think they might have characters with prosthetics in that show.

26:16.74
Nandi K
Mmm.

26:16.87
Vance 😈
But. But anyway, disabled people showing up in in the future is also important in fantasy. um X-Men, obviously, the whole allegory is minorities.

26:24.51
Nandi K
yeah i was thinking of that of course

26:26.46
Vance 😈
ah X-Ass is in a damn wheelchair. He be out there in the field in a wheelchair.

26:30.37
Nandi K
And he's evil, too, on top of that.

26:31.97
Vance 😈
Shoot right shooting people and that's represent

26:33.39
Nandi K
evil Guys.

26:34.43
Vance 😈
That's representation.

26:35.20
Nandi K
Don't let being disabled stop you from being evil.

26:35.56
Vance 😈
And gay.

26:39.53
Nandi K
And gay.

26:51.54
