On this episode of Virgo Season, things get unhinged fast. Joyhdae might be magical, Ryan is fighting for his life against spring pollen, and somehow we land in a full-blown debate about whether 100 men could really defeat a silverback gorilla. (Spoiler: absolutely not.)
We dive into the cultural phenomenon that is Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s new horror film starring Michael B. Jordan in a dual role. Ryan and Joyhdae have thoughts—from the symbolism and social commentary to why this might be one of the best films of the year. If you haven’t seen it, beware of spoilers. If you have, you’ll want to hear this breakdown.
Then it’s on to Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour and the viral moment her daughter Rumi completely stole the show. We talk about Blue Ivy passing the baton, the evolution of Beyoncé’s legacy, and why the internet needs to stop projecting diagnoses onto Black children enjoying themselves onstage.
Terrence Howard is back on his usual nonsense, this time claiming he turned down playing Marvin Gaye because he’d “cut his lips off” before kissing a man. We unpack the homophobia, the delusion, and the fact that no one even asked for him to play Marvin in the first place.
And yes—it’s real: sperm racing is officially a sport. We break down the details of this live-streamed fertility competition and try to figure out how we ended up in a timeline where people are betting on literal sperm.
Plus, the now-viral internet debate: could 100 men defeat a silverback gorilla in a fight? Joyhdae and Ryan analyze the odds, the science, the stupidity, and why it proves once again that group projects are doomed to fail.
From viral moments to pop culture chaos, this episode of Virgo Season is packed.
