Hello Somebody! Today, I want to introduce you to a show that's produced by the same folks who do my show - Larj Media. I hope you'll love it as much as I do!

Every other week, AJ and Dalin dive into what it means to exist in a constant state of recharge and fatigue in today’s climate while finding the self-care necessary in Blackness, Beyoncé, and Batman. If you’re looking to foster community and discover more self-identity, we got you. (subscribe to Battle Fatigue wherever you get podcasts)

On this episode:

Welcome back, BF Community! By now, we know that AJ is against all things horror while Dalin is 100% all in and that dynamic makes for a unique take on their dive into the first four episodes of Lovecraft Country. Caution: There will be spoilers! This week, they’ll talk the real history the series invokes, in addition to what it looks like when Black folks operate in the sci-fi/horror genre unashamed and untethered. From mythical monsters and Indiana Jenkins to James Baldwin and sundown towns, this is a series that explores multiple spectrums simultaneously. It’s so good, even AJ is willing to catch what she can in-between fingers over her eyes! But before all that mess, the duo take a personal moment to honor the life of Chadwick Boseman, specifically his role in Black Panther and the connection it holds to their growing friendship.
