Submit ReviewHey HBs! Naima Simone is here! She and Mel gush about the most perfect movie in the whole world: Beyond the Lights! Between Gugu Mbatha-Raw (who sang the whole thing!), Minnie Driver, and Danny Glover, we were bowled over. Plus, parenting in pandemictimes, cackling until your stomach hurts, and rewatching movies for science.
CW: discussions of sexual assault that happen on screen
Lady Loves:
Mel AND Naima: This movie's soundtrack!!
Follow Naima: @naimasimoneauthor on all the things.
POST-EPISODE EDIT: A listener clued us in on some disturbing information regarding Nate Parker and Machine Gun Kelly that Mel and Naima didn't know about before this recording.
CW: rape, racism.
Nate Parker was of-the-nate-parker-rape-scandal.html">charged for and subsequently acquitted of raping a fellow college student in 1999. His alleged co-offender was convicted of rape and later that conviction was overturned.
Machine Gun Kelly has a history of fetishizing Black women and making sexual comments about underaged girls.
These disappointing and disgusting facts would have definitely changed the tenor of our analysis had we known before.
