    A Peek Inside Hulu’s New ‘Black Twitter’ Docuseries

    Michael Calore: Awesome.

    Lauren Goode: Nice.

    Michael Calore: Love it. Jason, your turn.

    Jason Parham: My recommendation today is the show of the moment. Well, the other show of the moment, because Black Twitter: A People’s History is the show of the moment. But I recommend X-Men ’97 on Disney+. It’s from my childhood watching X-Men. I think it’s so hard to see a reboot done really, really well, and maybe even better than the original.

    Prentice Penny: It’s so good.

    Jason Parham: I have no notes. It’s a perfect 10 out of 10. I’ve watched every episode like three times. It’s amazing.

    Joie Jacoby: Holy shit, OK.

    Jason Parham: Yeah, it’s really good. It’s really good.

    Michael Calore: All right, all right. Lauren?

    Lauren Goode: My recommendation is the show of the moment. Watch the doc Black Twitter: A People’s History, and also read Jason’s original cover story on WIRED. We’re going to link to that in the show notes so all of you can read it. Just immerse yourself, it’s really brilliantly done. And that’s my recommendation this week.

    Michael Calore: Nice.

    Lauren Goode: What’s yours?

    Michael Calore: I’m going to recommend instant coffee. Now, instant coffee has just been terrible most of our lives, it’s just been really bad and has not been worth even considering. But for some reason in the last year or less, there’s been this renaissance in instant coffee where you can get really great high quality freeze-dried coffee that no joke tastes exactly like regular brewed coffee. Verve is a good one. I know you can get them all around the country. If you’re in the Bay Area, you can get Timeless or Four Barrel and Blue Bottle makes some.

    Lauren Goode: Yeah, I have a couple of Blue Bottle packets. I haven’t used them yet though.

    Michael Calore: You haven’t used them yet?

    Lauren Goode: No. I’ll give them a try.

    Michael Calore: Yeah, so it feels weird. Like, you know I’m a coffee person.

    Lauren Goode: Yeah, this is kind of like Bluetooth. Bluetooth was really bad for a while. Now it’s like, oh, actually, Bluetooth is kind of good. Yeah.

    Michael Calore: And when that happened, you had to convince people. There were people who were like, “Oh, I’ll never own a pair of Bluetooth headphones.”

    Lauren Goode: Yeah, totally. It was junk.

    Michael Calore: You had to be like, “No, listen, it’s actually good now.” So yeah, this is instant coffee’s Bluetooth moment.

    Lauren Goode: Nice. That’s great.

    Michael Calore: All right.

    Lauren Goode: We’re going to be all caffeinated. For the next podcast, we’re going to be even more caffeinated.

    Michael Calore: All right, well that is our show for this week. Thank you so much to our guests, Joie Jacoby, Prentice Penny, and Jason Parham. Thank you so much for being here.

    Joie Jacoby: Thank you so much.

    Jason Parham: Thank you guys.

    Prentice Penny: Thank you guys.

    Joie Jacoby: Thank you for having us. So much fun.

    Lauren Goode: It was so fun having you all on, and I really mean it when I say everyone should run, not walk, to watch this docuseries. Black Twitter: A People’s History comes out today, May 9, on Hulu. So go check it out when you’re done listening to this podcast, which is now.

    Michael Calore: And thank you all for listening. If you have feedback, you can find all of us on Twitter, of course. Just check the show notes. Our producer is the excellent Boone Ashworth, and we’ll be back with another episode next week. And until then, goodbye.
