"Def did not think we would be talking about hymens today..." ( Christy Teigan) ...but that's exactly what we are talking about. The crew is joined by Stephanie from the Mocha Minutes Podcast and Alasha to discuss Whitney Houston's broken heart and T.I.'s quest to "protect" his daughter's hymen. This is not a joke. This is real life.

SSNP 323 | Streaming Wars, Episode II: Attack of the HBO Max Smorgasbord
A long time ago (last week), in a galaxy far, far away (Burbank), a media conglomerate announced a sprawling new steaming platform full of some of their most popular movies and TV shows, as well as new productions. No, it isn't Disney - it's Warner Bros., and, unlike with the Mouse House, there's far more hurdles to overcome. Can HBO Max overcome branding issues and a high monthly price to make new "Green Lantern." "Boondocks," and "Little Ellen" (!) productions successes?
In this episode, the SSN Crew discusses HBO Max's content presentation, as well as Lori Loughlin staring down the barrel of a 50 year prison sentence, the Internet's best friends - "Game of Thrones" show runners David Benioff & D.B. Weiss - departing Star Wars for Netflix, and more bonus discussion on Eddie Murphy's "Dolemite is My Name!"
SHOW NOTES:
0:00:00: Say Something New: News
◦ HBO Max Presentation: "Green Lantern," "Strange Adventures," "Little Ellen," "Jellystone," and more...
0:31:02: Say Something Nice Challenge
◦ Lori Laughlin hit with more charges, looking at 50 years in jail
◦ David Benioff & D.B. Weiss no longer writing Star Wars trilogy - quit or fired?
0:31:02: "The Little Mermaid Live" Anticipation (this show was recorded before the broadcast)
1:05:39: Post-Show: Behind-the-Scenes and history behind "Dolemite is My Name"

The SSN Crew returns to discuss two very different new movies featuring Black actors. First up is "Harriet," the hotly-debated biopic about Black American hero Harriet Tubman embroiled in multiple controversies, some reasonable, some blatant lies. Does the movie do justice to our legend, or is it a white savior movie featuring an implausible interracial love story? Or...is it neither?
Then, we review Eddie Murphy's return to form in "Dolemite is My Name," with its look at the making of a blaxploitation classic and star turns for Keegan-Michael Key, Tituss Burgess, Mike Epps, a heavily wigged T.I., and Da'Vine Joy Randolph. Plus, reviews of the first two episodes of HBO's new "Watchmen" series, the BET+ streaming show "Bigger," Taika Watiti's Oscar-bait Nazi dramedy "Jojo Rabbit," and Tyler Perry's new BET shows "The Oval" and "Sistas".

Are two Wills better than one? The SSN Crew and special guest Tammy aka Cowkitty review Ang Lee's latest experiment with high-frame rate filmmaking. Unlike with his previous "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk," this time Mr. Lee has a secret weapon: Will Smith! Was seeing Fresh Prince vs. Fresh Prince worth watching in (*deep breath*) Dolby Cinema 3D at 120 frames per second, or is it not much more than an action-heavy telenovela? Also, did Jason Weaver make a mistake by taking royalties instead of a $2 million lump sum for singing the songs in the original "Lion King"? ALl this and more within!

Pioneering actress and singer Diahann Carroll passed away at the age of 84 last week. As one of the earliest Black Broadway stars and the first Black woman to star on TV as a professional woman, she broke down multiple barriers for Black women in entertainment. In this special episode of the SSN Crew, and special guests Alasha and C-Dubb from The C-Dubb Show, discuss Ms. Carroll's career and four of her most famous acting achievements: as the star of the sitcom "Julia," as the lead of the cult classic film "Claudine," as Dominique Devereaux on "Dynasty" and "The Colbys," and as Whitley Gilbert's mother Marion on "A Different World".
