The '00s Zone
This is a podcast that looks back at the movies of the '00s, and tries to make sense of that seemingly culturally faceless first decade of the new millennium. It's hosted by screenwriter, filmmaker, and sometimes critic Mark Palermo (Detention) and actor Loretta Yu (Blood and Water, Diggstown). Sometimes there are guests (also of some renown).

Episode 6
Ryan Jackson (Mutual Aberration Society) joins Mark and Loretta for a discussion on Black and Asian relations in pop culture. In the first segment of our two-part most political episode yet, we look at the Aaliyah and Jet Li action film Romeo Must Die, and its placement in 2000's America. Then things really heat up.
