This week, Oliver and I discuss the Shirley Sherrod debacle and the bigger picture of the Obama Administration’s handling of race-related issues.  We also share our thoughts on the new Christopher Nolan film Inception.  And finally, in our one minute closing random thoughts, Oliver discusses the new bar for Asian American children and I discuss my concerns about the LAPD collecting leftover slices of pizza.

(Eds. note: We apologize for the audio issues.  Oliver’s audio occasionally sounds distorted (as if Sleigh Bells was handling the audio engineering) and I accidentally put my microphone about five feet from my mouth.)

Junichi and I rap about the end of Lost (he liked it…me, kind of ambivalent). We also discuss whether you can have a constructive conversation about race in American politics without the “R” word being thrown around.
