We're back! Sorry for the delay, as we all know, a lot going on to start the year. But thankfully we were able to stack a few episodes and we'll be dropping them weekly going forward, starting with the amazing Steven Underwood!

His new book, Forever for the Culture: Notes from the New Black Digital Arts Renaissance, explores the ways in which Black culture shaped the digital age as well as Black digital creators fight for recognition. Speaking of fight...

This weeks movie was a battle as we watched Runaway, a Hallmark TV movie from 2000 that stars...Dean Cain and Maya Angelou? We got racism, we got platitudes, we got voodoo, and some wild plot twists.

Go buy Steven's book, available wherever books are sold, preferably at a Black owned bookstore if you can. This Black History Month we'll be celebrating with some mini episodes discussing some corners of the Black film world that don't often get spotlighted as well as running our first Book Club meeting (details coming real soon). Hit us up on the socials Whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod on IG and (for now) TikTok and we'll be back next week with *shudders* Neo Ned.

A long but worthwhile episode this week as we dive into the recent Running Man adaption from Edgar Wright. It got us thinking about other films this year that have aspired to thoughts about political revolution and fallen short. We cover parts of Wicked: For Good, One Battle After Another, and Caught Stealing and discuss what it means when these movies use revolutionary language and imagery, the role of Black people (women specifically) in these films, and much more!

We've got a few last episodes before the year ends, including Francis Ford Coppola's insane musical Finian's Rainbow and our 2025 year end wrap up!

This film...wow. The spiritual successor to The Thing With Two Heads, we discuss 1990's Heart Condition, easily the worst film Denzel has ever been in.

In what feels like an attempt to cash in on the success of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, this poorly imagined race comedy inserts Denzel into the Roger Rabbit role and instantly jumps into our worst things we've watched list. An insane film where Bob Hoskins throws out slurs left and right and somehow ends up the father of a Black child.

We ask if this is Denzel's worst role, what even makes a good racial comedy, and invent the role of racism stunt double (Key and Peele call us!).

As always, hit us up on the socials at @whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod on IG and TikTok and write to us at whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod@gmail.com

We'll be back next week to talk about the recently released remake of The Running Man.

Happy (very belated) Halloween. It's never too late or early for spooky season (what is time in 2025 anyways?) and we're so glad to be joined by one of our favorite guests Shawn Pryor to discuss the eerily bad The Thing With Two Heads. This 1972 monstrosity is at once filled with some of the wildest scenes we've seen and also features what feels like an hour long car chase.

You can find all of Shawn's incredible work at his website (https://shawnpryor.com/) and find him on IG at @theshawnpshow. Find us on IG and TIkTok at @Whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod and hit us up at whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod@gmail.com

We'll be back with the spiritual sequel to this and one of the worst we've seen, 1990's Heart Condition soon!

We've reached the summit of mount caucacity! It's time to find out, what is the worst white savior film of all time. On one side we have Jordan, arguing for the favorite of middle aged white dads with wrap around sunglasses everywhere, Dances With Wolves. On the other side we have Cameron going up against one of the worst crimes committed to film, Green Book.

We pit these two titans of white nonsense up against each other to see who comes out on top! Let us know which is your pick @whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod on IG and TikTok or write to us at Whitepeoplewontsaveyoupod@gmail.com

Back again with our top 20 countdown, this time with 5 through 3. We discuss some of the most notorious offenders in Lawrence of Arabia, The Help, and Driving Mrs. Daisy. So much to talk about and somehow we get sidetracked talking about the California Raisins.

We wrap up our top 20 tomorrow with our final two contenders, Green Book and Dances With Wolves. Who will be crowned worst of the worst, tune in tomorrow to find out!

Sorry for the delay, life has been lifing, but we're back with our next installment of our Top 20 white savior countdown! We've got 10 - 6 for you, including a lot of the most notorious white savior films we've covered. We'll be wrapping up the countdown this week, as well as putting out a few more original episodes! What will be in our top 5? Tune in tomorrow to find out!

We're back with a classic! One of the originals, Lawrence of Arabia is considered by many to be the greatest film ever made. It also features Obi-Wan in brown face...

We talk about the historical fact and fictions, the depiction of Arab peoples in the film and much more!

Our top 20 countdown concludes this week! We also have some spooky Halloween episodes on the way, including a 30th anniversary look at Tales From the Hood as well as an episode on The Thing with Two Heads.
