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.

Flash Forward is a show about possible (and not so possible) future scenarios. What would the warranty on a sex robot look like? How would diplomacy work if we couldn’t lie? Could there ever be a fecal transplant black market? (Complicated, it wouldn’t, and yes, respectively, in case you’re curious.) Hosted and produced by award winning science journalist Rose Eveleth, each episode combines audio drama and journalism to go deep on potential tomorrows, and uncovers what those futures might re ...

Recorded live at Bay Con 2025 in Santa Clara, CA! Join Josh Gilliland for his analysis of the Ghostbusters film series. From the panel description:
Who you gonna call… when the Ghostbusters get sued? From ghost containment ethics to property damage caused by proton packs, the Ghostbusters franchise is full of supernatural shenanigans that raise real-world legal questions. Could trapping a ghost be considered false imprisonment? What environmental laws apply to a ghost containment unit? And was animating the Statue of Liberty a legal nightmare?
Join The Legal Geeks as they break down the law of the afterlife with a panel of judges and attorneys. Using their legal expertise (and maybe a P.K.E. meter or two), they’ll explore the weird, wild, and surprisingly complex legal issues in the Ghostbusters universe. Don't miss this electrifying discussion—just be careful not to cross the streams!
