455 - Reservation Dogs (feat. Nikki Stafford)

<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">The best show on TV is on FX--well, FX on Hulu, that is. It’s called</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Reservation Dogs</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">, it was created by Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi, and it is about four Indigenous kids from Oklahoma dreaming of escape to California. To discuss this funny, heartbreaking show, Paul and Arlo are joined by pop culture writer extraordinaire Nikki Stafford. The gang discusses the show’s subtle storytelling, its incredible cast, the way Harjo and his team thread the needle between tragedy and comedy, and how this series breaks ground for mainstream Native representation in America. Plus, Arlo almost killed Paul.</span></span></p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">NEXT: second time’s the charm; hopefully, we’ll actually do a</span> <strong>Four-Color Flashback</strong> <span style="font-weight: 400;">on John Layman and Afu Chan’s</span> <em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Outer Darkness</span></em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">.</span></span></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><span style= "font-size: 10pt;"><strong>BREAKDOWN</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 10pt;">00:00:42  -  Intro / Guest</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">00:10:45  - </span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">Reservation Dogs</span></em></span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400; font-size: 10pt;">01:25:45  -  Outro / Next</span></p> <p> </p> <p> </p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>LINKS</strong></span></p> <p> </p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong><a href= "https://www.powwows.com/stoodis-skoden-reservation-dogs-puts-ndn-slang-in-focus/"> ‘Stoodis!’ & ‘Skoden’ — ‘Reservation Dogs’ Puts NDN Slang in Focus</a> <span style="font-weight: 400;">by Jeanette Centeno,</span> <em><span style= "font-weight: 400;">powwows.com</span></em></strong></span></li> </ul>
