Bomani Jones

[Rekkapryde]

Anyone know what happened to "Stacy from Brooklyn"?
Rod is a writer on the show but I wonder if they will have anyone else from the morning jones on there. I'm assuming he'll DJ Mike on there. Maybe Chill

OH God...

11:30pm??

With that time slot I expect some HEAT. I'll have to check it out but I agree that Bo isn't the type to carry a comedic show alone.

we definitely need Hitman to pop up. Hitman being like a Paul Mooney type recurring dude would be gold.

Stacy passed away I believe a year or two ago.

- im a fan of his podcast. And leading up to this he kept saying it was gonna be like the right time.
- like yall said he was too stiff wearing that suit and using that teleprompter. I think they’re better off having him in a hoodie or something chill and on a couch to keep it more lax
- i think he needs someone else on the show to introduce topics and to help smooth the transitions between topics. Like he has on the podcast.
- and hopefully he moves away from the espn guests and topics. I know thats his comfort zone but he def needs to branch off

bruh, if mike show up on that show in a red suit talkin that talk, i may die from laughter. those segments used to have me cookin. good lookin out for bo bringing rod in. he couldve easily just brought the people he worked with on espn or went to some pc pool of writers.

I hope the show will allow him to just riff and talk shyt about different sports topics like he did with the YouTube shorts he used to do when he was on SB Nation. That's how I found out about him and those shyts were hilarious





The Jordan Jefferson episode made me a fan

i won’t say hatred, nikka just has a feminist slant, i imagine from his moms influence, because the gymnastics I’ve seen him go through to drive some points is a bit much, but like i said above he has an audience, you don’t have to agree with everything a person says to still like the things he touches on. shyt i don’t agree with everything my other podcast fam say, but i still respect their opinion and I’m sure the feelings are mutual

Fair enough.

I personally can't fukk with anybody containing that much feminist energy, so quick to label black men as "ashy" and uses "hotep" in a derogatory manner. But he's quite a smart dude so I can understand people are willing to look the other way.

Just don't be shocked when he finally decides to go nuclear on straight black man.

Yeah...

Ayo, this shyt really started with a Just Blaze instrumental for no damn reason.

Going off the opening monologue, they either need to bring in an audience, or work on Bo's timing. A key part of jokes coming off flat is not letting the jokes breathe. A lot of comedians have said that having an audience there to play off of helps you get the timing down until you can just do it mentally.

Seems like they thought the same thing with the second monologue segment in the middle, since the onset crew were helping him out with the reactions.

The teleprompter/stiffness issues will get better with time. It's worth considering that all of his previous TV experience has been home just sitting in front of a camera and talking freely until a producer or host lets him know his time's up.

That Duke segment was pretty good. Not all the jokes landed, but it's a good start. I think this has potential to round into a pretty good show, as long as he stays away from being pretentious/holier-than-thou Bomani.

Rod the new 8Ball

Breh.

Breh.

He envisions it as The Morning Jones being brought to TV.

He should add more Interviews with the randoms

"Spell Coach K last name"
"S...."

I don’t think he will ever do that, he’s still a man, that cat just wired different, but he can go a bit too far sometimes and that’s when i fast forward or catch the next segment

 

[Motife43]

Just peeped the show. I wasn't a fan of the recap of current news, Bomani is good off the cuff and that seemed too scripted and "late night show" esque.

The Stephen A interview was dope, he was talkin big shyt lmaooo

The Duke museum had me rollin. The Jalen Rose cameo was a nice touch

I'll be watching every week, excited to see how they improve over the remaining five episodes

The street interviews have some pretty good potential. He probably could've gotten half an episode out of playing two truths and a lie with Cowboys stories.
