Big Bags Bussin

Happy Spring, Beloveds!

GRAMMYs Dominated

Let's get physical, physical!  International Women's Day, Harlem's Heroes sit down with three vibrant and brilliant young women to discuss how they deal with the social pressures ascribed to sex; everyone's favorite pastime. Or, is it? One such guest is Brianda Agramonte (@thatsbrianda), an actress, songwriter, and podcaster who has been celibate for three years and has a lot to say about its benefits especially for other women. Beside her is music journalist Zoë Cherry (@CountBlaccula) with her perspective as a queer-identified woman currently experiencing a period of abstinence--which is distinct from celibacy, and which we will define for you! Fear not!  And beside us is Homie of the Show, our Queens Correspondent: ¡ABRIL!This is our most NSFW  episode yet, you have been warned! Also, content/trigger warning for sexual coercion discussed in peripheral detail from 23:40-26:05. FEAT. A very exclusive and exciting scoop from Brianda at the tail end of the episode...Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

The Goodies

For the final BHM episode, Harlem's Heroes get revolutionary. Joined again by Wes Goodrich, the boys recap the plot of Shaka King's Judas and the Black Messiah while discussing its impact, the decisions made in creating it, how it stands in conjunction with Regina King's One Night in Miami  and other civil rights biopics, + more. FEAT. Justin unearthing who Daniel Kaluuya should REALLY be playing in a biopic. Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

This Could Radicalize You

Happy Black History Month, Beloveds! For our first February episode, Harlem's Heroes break intellectual bread with a cadre of talented young Black creatives of the stage and screen. In our biggest discussion since S1E4, these brilliant guests give insights well beyond their years on why awards shows need work (or abolition); staying inspired through the funk of inactivity; expressing yourself in a sea of the identical, and much more.  FEAT. Justin freezing, in true actor fashion, and forgetting his AKAs at the top!  This is our first episode edited by Mister Federico Perez whose work with Tiny House Audio you can check by clicking his name.  Don't forget to follow Harlem's Very Own Playlist here or here!Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

The Soul Purpose

Joy to the world, more Marvel news has come! Harlem&apos;s Heroes have fought their way through the beast that was 2020, coming out more seasoned and capable in the end. Who knew Marvel would throw all these gifts our way right before the finish line? Before Jude ever swung a kettlebell, and before Justin ever wrote a poem, they were both nose down in comic books. And they haven&apos;t had a full chance to express just how nerdy they can get. So, on this final episode of the year, they invite their boy Ahmad Simmons back on the show to help them do just that.BUT FIRST! Money or The Maverick [2:30]; Lupe&apos;s Vaccine Fiasco [25:25]; and Behind Bars for Bars [42:00]. MAIN SEGMENT: Marvel News + Movie Theater Blues [1:08:45]FEAT.

A Marvelous Christmastime

This week on HvO,  We've just finished Movember (aka No Shave November, aka No Nut November) and Harlem's Heroes have some questions about how much work all these national months are actually doing--especially ones that are based on deadly and widespread diseases like cancer. They crack open a tough topic and discuss men's health in general, with all the usual flavors of humor and sobriety. BUT FIRST! A Family Reunion, Chappelle Showin' Out, and Lori Harvey's Wishlist.FEAT. Jude and Justin doing their best impression of Aku, the Shapeshifting Master of Darkness. Support the show (https://instagram.com/hvopod)

Zuher Ibrahim and Ali Dorsett are two political science graduates from Pace University whose podcast gives voice to political events and history from a POC POV. They call into the show to help Harlem's Heroes parse some of the difficult and unclear questions about America, not just in the wake of this election, but looking to the future. FEAT.

Lady Liberty's New Boo (feat. Just Too Opinionated)

Jude and Justin have been boys since they met in 2015, despite being products of two pretty different upbringings. Representing the opposite ends of Harlem, the Beast from the East and the Best of the West bring their eclectic worldviews together every other week to dish on current events and philosophize about a predetermined topic. Or kinda just talk to each other. They'll play it by ear.
