123. Sinners (Spoiler/Review)

Send us a text

This episode, we dive deep into Sinners — the most viral film in theaters right now. Directed by Ryan Coogler and scored by Ludwig Göransson, it’s being praised everywhere... but we’re here to poke holes in the hype.

Michael B. Jordan, Miles Caton, Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù, Ṣunmí Mósákù, Hailee Steinfeld, and Jack O'Connell all deliver powerful performances — but is it really just a flashy cultural vampire story dressed up in Jim Crow cosplay? Is this another case of "culture vulture" storytelling or something more sinister?

We talk about:

• The Klan influence (Ku Klux Klan energy in Mississippi settings)
• Get Out feeling more like a documentary in 2025
• The portrayal of homosexuality and the term for trying to "turn" people
• Josh Allen’s fiancée committing a fashion crime by keeping it PG
• Jeff’s first on-camera meltdown (please excuse him)

Cultural critique, reckless jokes, and unfiltered opinions — the DBP way.🎥🩸
