Eddie Huang aka The Human Panda Talks About Identity And Chews The Pork Fat With Stephen Colbert (Video)
Good stuff. We knew Eddie when he was “Fresh Off The Boat” with VICE. Now, he’s with ABC… still “Fresh…” But he has not forgotten where he came from – Taiwan or online – and he is going back (to VICELAND with a new show, “Huang’s World”). Watch Eddie talking with Stephen Colbert above and after the jump about all kinds of stuff – like them delicious-looking pork buns.
Ice Cube Talks About The Surviving Members Of NWA Reuniting For Coachella, Working With Prince And More
More dope content after the jump, but lookit… if you were at Coachella to see the NWA reunion… all heads who were not in the audience are insanely jealous (know that), including Ice Cube. Haaa! Cube takes us there in his chit-chat with talk show host James Corden; and he speaks on having the good fortune to have directed a Prince video back in the day.
ESPN’s 30 For 30: This Magic Moment (Documentary)
Think. Really think… that is, if you remember back when Shaq and Penny Hardaway were the 1-2 punch that was supposed to take the Orlando Magic all the way to the tippy top of the NBA. Do you remember why that didn’t happen? ESPN takes us back and takes us there; to the heart of the story about when the ‘magic’ happened and when the Magic fell apart.
Comedy: Larry Wilmore Speaks To Some Black Donald Trump Voters (Video)
Know how on a lot of our posts we say, ‘Watch and you will get it.’ Most times, we mean it; even if we don’t explicitly state it in the write-up. Well…errr-aah-umm-duuhh… not on this one. We ain’t guaranteeing sh!t. You may not ‘get it.’ Okay, maybe you’ll get a laugh; but only because Larry Wilmore is really good at his job OR because you need to laugh to keep from crying, screaming, throwing something across the room or all the above.
Larry talks to some of Donald Trump’s African-American supporters in an effort to answer the pressing question, “What the f**k are you thinking?”
WTF!! This can’t be real. Can it? Welp, somebody’s voting for The Donald in these primaries.
(Did you hear that “Coming from the Hip-Hop community, I understand his language” bullsh!t? Okay, whoever said it, gimme…gimme your GOT damn ‘hood pass NOW!)
Comedy: Jimmy Kimmel Shows A Deleted Scene from “Batman v Superman†Starring (Video)
Ben Affleck is Jimmy Kimmel’s guest.
Stop me if you’ve heard this one: Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne and Jimmy Kimmel were talking and… Ahhh skip it! Clark is Superman. Bruce is Batman. Oh you knew that, huh? Well, now Jimmy knows. Okay, okay, “So what?” I’ll tell you what.
Jimmy told Lex Luthor!
(And it was all hilarious! And sooo much more is in this clip. Watch it all the way through.)
Pharrell Williams And Jimmy Fallon Are On TV Now Talking About TV Music In The ’80s (Video)
That 1980s music. Gotta love it! Especially with Fallon and Pharrell on the set… and The Roots on point! Watch as host Jimmy Fallon and guest Pharrell Williams, backed by The Roots every so often, take The Tonight Show audience on a hip trip through (e.g. discussion of) theme music of the freshest TV era ever.
‘Gina’ Tells Us The Truth: ‘Tommy’ Really Did Have A Job! (Video)
Did you ever wonder if Tommy Ford’s character (you know, Tommy on the TV show Martin) actually had a job? Well… according to Tisha Campbell (Gina on the show)… the answer is YES! Hear/see her spill the beans above in the video clip.
So, Tisha says so. Is that enough? How about if Tommy himself told you? Would that do? Well, hit the jump then (with your ol’ skeptical self)! And while you’re there, let’s have one more long belly laugh at the whole gang of ‘Tommy ain’t got no job maaaaan’ snippets down there, too.
Enjoy!
The Segment Lampooning Hollywood’s ‘Whitewashing’ On Last Week Tonight With John Oliver Was Epic! (Video)
Last Week Tonight dropped this satirical gem (okay, megaton satire bomb) on Hollywood whitewashing on its ‘How Is This Still A Thing?’ segment just before the Academy Awards. Not enough roles for non-White actors, eh Hollywood? Bullsh!t much? Hope John Oliver did not p!ss off any future guests with this one. Then again, so what if he did? This is too spot on …and hilarious …and true!

DJ Khaled Gives You The Keys…To Winning (Video)
Now you know… ‘They’ is the hater, the loser… the ones NOT to be entertained. Take your lead (like Kim K and The Bieb) from ‘The Best’ – DJ Khaled. He’s super-serious!
The Hip-Hop producer’s fame has exploded since he started sharing moments from his private life on the mobile app.
Watch the Snapchat King win again (above)… might learn yourself a thing or three about how you can, too. Or just maybe you just enjoy the clip. See? You win either way!
Cam’ron Is The Nightly Show’s Office Cupid (Video)
Oh man, there is so much good stuff out ’round the tubes. Should have gotten this on in the Love Month, but you gonna love this regardless. Cam’Cupid giving ‘Killa advice’ to the Nightly Show’s ladies and men on matters of amore (wink).
Action Bronson In The Kitchen On The Wendy Williams Show (Video)
Remember that poke bowl Action Bronson did up on F#ck That’s Delicious (The Hawaii Edition)? Well, he’s going syndicated TV with that on Wendy Williams. Chef Bam Bam doing promo big for his upcoming season for VICE.
Action Bronson tells us about his new show, “F*ck, That’s Delicious†and shows us how to make Tuna Poke.
Great clip. Take a look.
Real Time With Bill Maher: New Rule – Crass Warfare (Video)
Okaaaay, apparently Donald Trump has already engaged discourse with leaders beyond the U.S. border. Judging by Mexican President Vicente Fox’s reaction (a.k.a. the F-bomb heard around the world), Trump’s big ideas may not be ‘well-received.’ Truth is, The Donald has pushed political discourse stateside and worldwide too far. And as ‘President Maher‘ might proclaim, that sh!t needs to stop! But there’s no ‘New Rule’ against laughing at a little satire before it does.
In his editorial New Rule, Bill Maher takes viewers to a not-too-distant future where the crass language of the campaign trail makes its way into the Oval Office.
Think about it though. Those included clips are of candidate Trump speaking in public; cussing out loud at crowds. Just saying, maybe think about that on the way to the ballot box.
Killer Mike Comments: Bernie Sanders Deals With Dissent While Hillary Clinton Condescends (Video)
Hmmm…some of you, now having seen and heard what Former Secretary Hilary Clinton respond to Ashley Williams’ “bring them to heel” protest, may be saying to themselves (and each other), “Somebody should SAY something.”
Well, Killer Mike is ON IT! After all, stumping for Bernie Sanders AND following up a jab at the Clinton campaign. Win-win, right?
Above: The ladies of The View welcome Killer Kill to clarify some of his hot-button campaign commentary. Oh, and while I am sure I do not have to urge YOU to vote, let the people around know… Whether during early balloting or Super Tuesday… VOTE DAMMIT!! VOTE!

PBS: Freedom Riders (Documentary)
Wow. Another moment in American History that just so happens to fall into the Black History category. You know how when someone gets in over his head and exclaims, “I did not sign up for this!” Well, in the first few minutes of this film you see that these young adults knew EXACTLY what they signed up for… and they went anyway. Civil Rights fighters of the highest caliber. Man, the courage it must have taken for CORE (Council On Racial Equality) to get on those buses.
Watch the story of the “Freedom Riders” – expertly told by PBS.
The African Americans: Many Rivers to Cross (Documentary Series)
Five centuries of history… Black History… our history. Encapsulated in an outstanding documentary mini-series you’ve gotta watch if your Black History Month is to be truly complete. Dr. Robert Louis Gates already does fine work helping celebs learn about their ancestries and themselves on “Find Your Roots.” But to teach a people, a nation, a WORLD about itself through something like this? Outstanding!
(Above is Episode 1 to get you started. Hit the jump for Episodes 2-6.)
Tonight Show ‘Password’ With Contestants Jennifer Lopez & Khloé Kardashian (Video)
Of course, if Jenny from the Block gives “Big” as a clue, a dude will say ‘booty!’ Obviously. Hahahaaaa! Truth be told, this is a lot of lovely mocha shake on the set. Kudos to Questlove and Jimmy for maintaining like the big pimpin’ gamers that they are.
Jimmy and Jennifer Lopez team up against Khloé Kardashian and The Roots’ Questlove in the game ‘Password.’
