101: "If you can't be a good example, serve as a terrible warning."

It’s finally here… The Wakanda Social Club presents — Black Guys in a Box. No more false promises. The maiden episode “If you can’t be a good example, serve as a terrible warning” is live. Everything you need to know about this episode lives in the title, as we tackle that poorly timed confession Liam Neeson felt he needed to share whilst promoting his new movie (34:40). We use that as a gateway to talk about other uncomfortable and unfortunate (racial) events that have happened in our lifetimes. Other topics include growing up as the black face in a white space [1:06:31]; confidence in the workspace (01:19:55); before closing with our regular feature — “What song would you _____ to?” (01:35:45) — this time it’s What song would you seek revenge (or beat Liam Neeson’s ass) to? On a lighter note, you get to know the team a little bit more and hear our hopes and BIG dreams for the Wakanda Social Club! In a nutshell, a candid conversation about some shit an old Irish guy did 40 years ago and how that affects us today.
