0:00.0 | Hey everybody. I was excited to see earlier this week right after we finished the show on Sunday actually |
0:06.0 | that actor Daniel Kahluya won a Golden Globe Award for his role portraying Fred Hampton the chair of the Illinois Black Panther Party, and the |
0:14.4 | film Judas and the Black Messiah. |
0:16.5 | It's a cool film and it just so happens that I recently had the pleasure of interviewing |
