Greetings to our loyal and growing listenership!  Pull up a seat and pour yourself a fresh Dorothy Dandridge while you listen to the latest edition of the Mid-Week in Review (MWIR) airing tonight at 7pm eastern.  Join your favorite AFROnerdists as they wax about the following subject matter:  burgeoning actress, Awkwafina not only wins a Golden Globe but also raises concerns that her ascendency might be in part due to Black cultural appropriation; respected actor, Christian Bale (The Dark Knight, Ford v Ferrari) might be appearing in the next Thor installment, Love and Thunder…but as what character?;  it looks like we might be seeing the return of Milestone Media after all, and BlerdsOnline submit there wants and needs for a new and improved imprint;  And speaking of the MCU, some outlets are reporting that the Hulk and Namor characters can now be used (with the previous legal impediments) as full solo Marvel characters in future films; just when we thought the OscarsSoWhite campaign might have resulted in greater minority representation in film, the BAFTAs did not showcase any POC excellence;  And lastly, we will try to address some of the topics we failed to get to per the last Grindhouse broadcast.  Call LIVE at 646-915-9620.
