In the 1980s, there were only 63 Black films by, for, or about Black Americans. But in the 1990s, that number quadrupled, with 220 Black films making their way to cinema screens nationwide. What sparked this “Black New Wave?” Who blazed this path for contemporaries like Ava DuVernay, Kasi Lemmons and Jordan Peele? And how did these films transform American culture as a whole? Presenting The Class of 1989, a new limited-run series from pop culture critics Len Webb and Vincent Williams, hosts ...

In this episode, we delve into the concept of being "qualified" in the workplace, examining who gets labeled as such, who doesn't, and the underlying reasons. We explore "competency checking"—the practice of scrutinizing individuals' abilities—and how it disproportionately affects underrepresented groups, often going unnoticed or unchallenged. Our discussion aims to redefine qualifications in a fair, equitable, and actionable manner. Our guest, Shari Dunn , is an accomplished journalist, former attorney, news anchor, CEO, university professor, and sought-after speaker. She has been recognized as Executive of the Year and a Woman of Influence, with her work appearing in Fortune Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, Ad Age, and more. Her new book, Qualified: How Competency Checking and Race Collide at Work , unpacks what it truly means to be deserving and capable—and why systemic barriers, not personal deficits, are often the real problem. Her insights challenge the narratives that hold so many of us back and offer practical solutions for building a more equitable future. Together, we can build workplaces and communities that don’t just reflect the world we live in, but the one we want to create. A world where being qualified is about recognizing the talent and potential that’s been overlooked for far too long. It’s not just about getting a seat at the table—it’s about building an entirely new table, one designed with space for all of us.

Although the Titan Games wrapped up a few months ago, we're guessing you probably didn't watch it. That's okay, because the Rock Talk jabronis have you covered and are watching the finale LIVE on this episode! If you remember, Jordan and Charlie were crushed to find out their application wasn't accepted to join the Titan Games but after watching, it's understandable why they weren't chosen. This is a live commentary, so turn on Hulu, queue up the last episode of the Titan Games and watch along!…

WE’RE BACK, BABY! After months on haitus, Rock Talk returns and we could think of no better day to come back than Dwayne Johnson’s birthday. This is the episode that almost broke us - technical delays and host relocations tried to hold us back BUT THEY COULDN’T. Journey 2: The Mysterious Island is not a good movie. But it’s certainly A movie. There’s something to be said for that. The jabronis break down this odd entry into the Rock’s filmography and suffer through it so you don’t have to!…

Dwayne Johnson turns in what might be the seminal performance of his career alongside Neve Campbell and a bunch of bad guys. HE SAVES THE DAY WITH DUCT TAPE. Also!!

Oh, and also Pedro from Napoleon Dynamite. When we tell you this movie will make you feel grimy, we mean that in a good way. ALSO!! The Rock releases more Under Armour gear!!

The Fast Family Vacation begins! And it couldn't begin with a better movie. xXx (don't google that without safesearch on) is part James Bond, part X-Games and part Mountain Dew Code Red. This is Vin Diesel at the height of his hairless powers and HOO BOY is it a roller coaster. The jabronis talk about fur coats, mini-submarines and soundtrack pole dancing in this INSANE episode of Rock Talk. This movie is WALL-TO-WALL relentless insanity and might be the MOST PERFECT MOVIE EVER MADE. At least Zuckerberg likes it. Also!! Gal Gadot cast in Red Notice!! Please remember to review the jabronis on iTunes! It's the #1 way to help us out and keep making the show.…

"Who should we call?" "EVERYBODY." 2015's San Andreas, or, Dwayne Johnson vs. Earthquakes. This movie does a disaster flick EXACTLY RIGHT. We have crazy destruction, cheesy one-liners and copious amounts of product placement. Is this movie scientifically accurate? OF COURSE NOT. Mostly because all of the science is being explained to us by Paul Giamatti. But it doesn't matter when your CGI-laden movie is INSANELY FUN! Also!! Jungle Cruise starts production next week!!
