“Talking Star: 'The Star Report': Should Black People Identify as Color Neutral?”
If you don’t mind spoilers, continue reading. If you do mind, watch the film Joker (2019). Before anything, Mr. Torain exclaims that the Tyler, the Creator show was lit. He was giddy as a teenybopper screaming Tyler’s name at the show. Next, he smoothly delves into the common thread of the narrative, the Joker film. He says that the film is not an adaptation of any comic book in any sense. The film explores mental health and anxiety issues present within relatively modern culture. Star points out that there are no CGI effects included in the film, yet the cinematography is sublime. Star says that he grows weary of movies with all kinds of big shootouts with machine guns and rockets and missiles. This film that he discusses is a big plus to him. The Joker employs a revolver. He shoots three white boys on the subway, Star describes. Additionally, the Joker (Joaquin Phoenix) stabs a man in the head. In a wicked scene to Mr. Torain, a little person is given the opportunity to leave a room with a chain lock on the door and fails to reach it to escape. Star says that Joaquin Phoenix is superb.

Talking Star: 'Are Black People Really on Code?'
Mr. Torain is an informant. He tells. He’s a snitch. And this is meant in the best way. Star testifies that he got caught lacking and that a young lady may be on Instagram with a photo of her and Star in the bed. Mr. Torain then switches lanes and talks about the judge hugging Guyger and giving her a Bible. Next, Star breaks down how there’s a difference between bleach blonde and natural. White women who have naturally blonde hair want the “goddess look.” Bleach blondes are just reaching. Then, Star delineates the question of the show concerning blacks being on code or within a collective, advancing in society. He ponders whether as a group, blacks can better themselves in the context of the “greater good.”

Talking Star: Amber Guyger Found Guilty in Dallas County
The duel of topics motivates Troi “Star” Torain. He becomes animated and more focused as he launches into the show. He discusses how the judge in the Amber Guyger murder trial should be dubbed a different name. And in Bruce Lee fashion, Torain switches topics with ease like a swift kick to side of the head. He talks about how hip hop architects Rakim and MC Serch might go to blows over alleged writings that occurred decades ago. Then, he turns back to the Guyger case seamlessly. The Castle Doctrine which upholds a citizen’s rights to be immune to laws that would normally be offenses if they take place in said citizen’s vehicle or home came into the conversation. Star finds this to be damning in this case. Botham Jean was in the comfort of his home when he was shot to death by Guyger. With just a turn on the winding road of discourse, Star once again talks about Rakim and MC Serch. He states that the former is angry at the latter over the aforementioned writing fallout. He says that there’s “nothing worse than an old clout chaser.”

Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: WeWork Fiasco & Silicon Valley Culture'

A few days later, he’s discussing the beauty of markets with the same passion and thorough delivery as in the previous episode. This experimentation with different branches (aesthetics and politics and economics, respectively) allows him to convey a message of rationality and substance. Here, he explores the inner-workings of one of the nation’s most treasured regions: Silicon Valley.

Talking Brook: 'Yaron Brook Show: Corruption in DC, Manon, Feminism and Capitalism'
To usher in the show, Dr. Yaron Brook speaks about the utter disaster that is the current impeachment process aimed at President Trump. Grounds for impeachment ought to include cozying up to dictators and writing each other “love songs.” No matter how you paint it, corruption is institutionalized, according to Dr. Brook, and all politicians are corrupt. Dr. Brook questions why Nikki Haley gets paid $75,000-$100,000 a pop for speaking engagements. He holds that politicians “produce nothing but become multimillionaires.” This is an age-old tale of how the people who occupy office hold immense power already in a political sense and then through pull and graft, show up with millions of dollars.

Reason First: How Many Theodore Bensons Are in the World?
To die in prison is a strange fate. It means that a person who clearly committed the crime now must meet his or her death for what they had done wrong. According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, just under 20,000 men and women perished behind jail or prison walls between the years 2007 and 2010. In Delaware, convicted murderer Theodore Benson was the latest case of this face of death. While investigators continue to work on the case, it appears that Benson passed away from natural causes at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Kent County.
