We bid a sentimental farewell to singer Carl "Bad Mama Jama" Carlton and director/activist Rob Reiner (and his wife Michele). The Missionaries ask Vincent and Len which genre of music has benefited most from the Black experience, then add more names to the list of Top Five Black villains. Vincent takes a Six Degrees journey to Anthony Franciosa and Gloria Hendry. Finally, the Men of Micheaux get into the holiday spirit with a blood-soaked crime drama featuring a catchy theme.

A listener challenges the Men of Micheaux to list their Top Five Black Villains in film, then Len presents a holiday-themed Top Five to a specific missionary in the audience.

The Men of Micheaux bid a fond farewell to reggae legend Jimmy Cliff (1944-2025) and question his and others’ place in music history, which steers into the legacy of the Jacksons, and a requiem of sorts for Randy Jackson. Who should sing a song of Thanksgiving? Six Degrees of Two 2009 indie pictures lead directly into this black & white debut from LaLa Land’s Damien Chazelle.

The Men of Micheaux share their thoughts on Netflix’s Being Eddie documentary and what it says (and doesn’t say) about Eddie Murphy. Vincent goes Six Degrees to two of his favorite British actors - Naomie Harris and Sophie Okonedo. And then they review a 2023 movie that may be the greatest rom-com of all time (when the subtitles are on).

And Barry Jenkins makes a hell of a debut in 2008’s Medicine For Melancholy.

The Men of Micheaux discover actor Sally Kirkland is doing well and making new movies. Len has a mini-review of Predator: Badlands.
