We recorded this awhile ago and may not have uploaded episode 24! You'd think we weren't professionals or something! (Oh, yeah, WE AREN'T!)
We discuss whether you can separate the art from the artist, all of those problematic sorts that create entertainment for us.

Terrence and John delve into black actors and creators of horror! What are some of the must-see films?
Being black in America has its trials and tribulations; horror allows for storytelling within the experience. It's a way not to have to dwell in the darkness with some fun and excitement!
Also, because this was AWHILE ago, some Fantastic Four talk!

We're back again with more ramblings. This time a bit about what neurodic\versity is and ISN'T in comics and other world at large.
Both Terrance and John's daughter were diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder and now that the world at large has a term for folks with these traits, it might be interesting to look at characters in fiction with some of these same traits.
