Part 1: Tool Tunes, ‘Isaac Hayes’, and The News (ACS Oct 29)
Part 2: Coleman Hughes on Police Brutality, Systemic Racism, and ‘White Fragility’ (ACS Oct 29)
Show Summary
At the top of the show, Adam has a brief conversation with ‘Isaac Hayes’ and then tells Bryan and Gina about driving around LA without A/C in his car, and his new appreciation for Tool Tunes. They also talk about shopping cart collisions, the history of the Hummer, and everyone listens to a new Rich Banks song. The guys then chat with callers about face masks, UFOs, and miscommunicating with staff members. Before the break, Gina reads news stories about the Nexium sex cult, the Dodgers’ World Series victory, and Justin Turner’s COVID announcement.
Adam is joined by Coleman Hughes for a one-on-one conversation. The guys begin by discussing how police brutality against black people is being amplified, and how there are similar instances perpetuated against other races that go largely ignored. They also talk about how viewing the system as racist is a dangerous mentality, and the guys go on to take live questions from fans listening over the Stereo app. As the conversation wraps up, Adam and Coleman talk about the book ‘White Fragility’, how Asians fit into the racism narrative, and Coleman states how he would fix the system if he had a magic wand.
