You should check out The Black Tribbles. It is awesome. Basically it is a podcast full of blerds (aka. black nerds) and it is sweet. They are only up to cast 13 as of right now, but it is all solid. They don't stick to straight comics but they have some pretty great not so serious episodes about anime and video games, and them some relatively serious conversations about race in nerd culture. I was hooked after listening to episode 6 entitled, Growing up Geek in Black America, and they talked about so many things that I myself had thought and felt while being myself a geek in black America.
They do their show live Fridays 10pm-12am and streaming to
here and then put up in podcast RSS
here. The show feels like a real radio show with live call ins and the semi regular musical interlude. This podcast is now my second favorite podcast, just under
CGS, and that is only because CGS comes out multiple times a week. If Black Tribbles was put out even twice a week it would be putting up a fight for my top spot.
