The Burnt Ships Podcast
Premiering this Friday, March 13, 2026, at 12 p.m. EST, in our 23rd episode of the Pod, we break down a wide range of cultural and political conversations shaping the moment, starting with BAFTA controversy involving a Tourette’s outburst and the use of the N-word during the broadcast, sparking debate about accountability, risk management, and how institutions like the BBC handle sensitive situations. We examine what happened, who bears responsibility, and what the incident reveals about culture, race, and media institutions. We dive deep into the relationship between Black art, culture, and mainstream institutions; the history of artists like Sammy Davis Jr. navigating systemic barriers; and the legacy of hip-hop and Black creativity in global culture Of course, as we often do, we pack in more in this episode, honoring legendary engineer and producer Bob Power, the sonic architect behind classics from A Tribe Called Quest, The Roots, Erykah Badu, and the Native Tongues movement. His influence on hip-hop and neo-soul helped define multiple generations of music. As well as some sports analysis, breaking down the Patriots’ season, coaching decisions, and the challenge of balancing talent with experience, our thoughts on the NBA, Jaylen Brown’s MVP-level season, and the Celtics’ evolving chemistry. And finally, we close with a frank conversation about the current political moment, media narratives, and the growing disconnect between institutions and public perception....
