A discussion of the animated series based on Aaron McGruder's groundbreaking comic strip about two brothers, Huey and Riley Freeman, and the absurdity of being Black in America with comedy writer Joe Gould (@joepgould)We talk Blackness, homophobia, the barbershop, being Black and queer in certain spaces, Aaron McGruder, the upcoming reboot and Ben Carson--our current era Uncle Ruckus with a medical degree, who likes to leave sponges in people's brains (seriously.) Tune in to this great Black queer conversation about the controversial animated series that was formative for Joe, ahead of its upcoming reboot.(Note: We ran into some audio issues this episode, making are guest somewhat hard to hear in spots. But the conversation is largely intact. Thanks for your patience.)Support the show (https://twitter.com/YouStarteditpod)
