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?

Severance Media Club: Reckless Disco
Post Show Recaps presents the Severance Media Club! Josh Wigler (@roundhoward), Melissa Woodward (@MelissaW28), and Doctor Amanda (@DrAmandaR) reunite once a month to revisit Severance (sometimes with special guests), and watch other projects related to the Apple TV+ series. You get to help them decide what to watch, too! Head here to vote!
Adam Scott stars in “Severance” as Mark, an employee working for a mysterious company called Lumon Industries. He’s enrolled in the Severance program, which separates employees’ work memories from their personal life, creating a theoretically healthier balance that turns out to be much deadlier in practice. Created by Dan Erickson and directed by Ben Stiller and Aoife McArdle, “Severance” also stars John Turturro, Patricia Arquette, Zach Cherry, Britt Lower, Christopher Walken, and more.
In this podcast, the hosts use the theme of “Reckless Disco” to explore a number of lightly related topics, including some recklessness behind the scenes on “Severance,” the disco music genre, acrostic poems about disco, and a half-hearted attempt to make you all play a video game. Next month, the team gets back together to watch “Schmigadoon” on Apple TV Plus.
