SSNP 298 | A Red-State Style ”Shaft,” A Middling ”Men in Black: International”, and The Things We Lost in the Universal Music Fire (feat. Yusuf Lamont, Stephanie of Mocha Minutes Podcast & Peter)

Long title, long episode, lots of big conversations!

First, Stephanie of the Mocha Minutes Podcast and Peter join the SSN Crew to discuss two new, yet unsuccessful, entires in long-running Hollywood franchises: "Shaft" and "Men in Black: International?" Is the new "Shaft" too problematic for modern audiences? Are there any signs of life to be found in the new "MIB"? And why is Meagan Good remaking "Foxy Brown?"

Then, Yusuf Lamont joins us to discuss the New York Times' investigation into a 2008 fire at Universal Studios, which has now been revealed to have caused the losses of hundreds of thousands of important master tapes for musicians going back decades. What will this mean for music lovers and music artists, and what can we do to improve music archiving and preservation?

All this, plus reviews of the "Pose" Season 2 opener, "Jessica Jones" Season 3, and more!
