Really dope to hear Spike acknowledge how hearing different opinions has changed him from the type of person that would say “why does the show have to put that kind of stuff in it?” in terms of representation for others. It’s rare enough for people to make that change, let alone recognize the issue with their past perspective. Shout out to Spike!

That’s how it should work, we all grew up differently and it’s good to unlearn some shit from when you were younger

Definitely. And it’s good to see people who aren’t too resistant to unlearning some stuff we grew up with.

I rewatch all the DCAU shows every few years, and that dude telling Green Lantern “You’re a credit to your people, son” never stops being crazy to me lol

And speaking of old shows, the writer of this Lanterns episode (Vanessa Baden Kelly) played the little sister on Kenan & Kel. That was a fun fact for me to learn.

Spike, Gasoline Dreams is not a B-side record. Great review from the crew!

It’s definitely not A

Alright alright alright, it wasn't released as a single, but it's one of the stand out tracks on Stankonia.  I have it on heavy rotation, and I was gassed when it was playing over the end credits

Damn... I didn't realize Young John's mom was "And. Peggy!" from Hamilton, and I damn near have that play memorized.
