We talked about the 1972 film Top Of The Heap, which was produced, directed, written by and starring Christopher St. John. Released during the heyday of blaxploitation, it sidesteps a lot of that genre&#39;s tropes. A truly unique and recommended piece of Black cinema.<br/><br/><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-blaxploitation-discussing-the-radical-outlier/id1793170342?i=1000741980128">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/beyond-blaxploitation-discussing-the-radical-outlier/id1793170342?i=1000741980128</a><br/><br/>#podcast #film #blackfedi #blackmastodon<br/> <img src="https://files.mastodon.social/media_attachments/files/115/792/639/674/347/753/original/735a7198a8b48b63.jpg"> <br/> 2025-12-27T17:16:58Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsq5073lxzaz7nlzjhx03feu2v73w5r3qqupu0vtry0uy4nyvssreqzyrj28548qgy3neyz6rhgm5wtytvdlxcpxz5lptpc72a65dh6295cv8ajeuu With all the posts on various social platforms about ditching Spotify for musically greener pastures, this Substack article gives us a lot to chew on, particularly music discovery outside of the algorithm&#39;s influence, offline listening, owning music files rather than streaming, and lots more.<br/><br/>As an analog child dragged kicking and screaming into an increasingly digital world, this article warms my heart.
