This week on the podcast we discuss the many, many reboots from the Best Man miniseries with the original cast to the live-action Power Puff girls, produced by Ava Duvernay. The New York Times dropped the bomb that Framing Britney Spears and BGB is officially #teamfreeBritney. In our Black History moment, we discuss the real story behind Lee Daniel's The United States vs Billie Holliday. Her life story is so inspiring and heartbreaking. We had no idea that this case ever took place but we are happy that we now know and are looking forward to the release of the movie on February 25th. We award the BAF and GAF and take a peek behind the curtain to discuss the woman formally known as Gorilla Glue Girl, Tessica Brown.
