On today’s episode, Know Your Role(s) welcomes actor, writer, and creator Tarik Davis to the pod! On tap in this week’s Bar Talk are the Lebron James injury, the HBO documentary “Tina,” and the new season of “Top Chef” premiering April 1st. Tarik fills us in on the road to “Amber Ruffin” from Rutgers to UCB to Boom Chicago and beyond. George and Tarik talk Tommy Hilfiger and Cavariccis, Tarik gives flowers to his “Brothers From Another Planet” podcast cohorts and the indelible Robert Townsend, and the gang explores connections between 90’s RnB artists and comic book characters from Aaliyah to Usher, Phoenix to Spiderman, and more! George plans on giving "the Snyder cut" a go this weekend, and Dave gets excited about the new Benny the Butcher and Harry Fraud collaboration "The Plugs I Met 2." Producer Marybess talks about her Hollaback! bystander intervention training session and brings our attention to gun control legislation in the wake of two mass shootings. Everyone, stay safe and healthy, and wear your mask over your f*cking nose.
