Black Men Can't Jump [In Hollywood]

Shownotes Transcript

Guest Roy Wood Jr. (The Daily Show) joins for a bit as we talk about the blockbuster that started it all for Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, the 1995 film Bad Boys directed by Michael Bay. We analyze why the film was able to become a franchise, how the lack of explicitly "black" references allowed the stars to have cross over appeal and if this film truly helped the cause.
