This week on Canal Street Dreams, we’re back breaking down the culture clash at the US Open from our perspective. We talk influencer culture since the pandemic and how it interacts with Tennis etiquette. Natashia gets got on Instagram for posting an altered AI image. We get into the recent story around an Anthropic researcher’s resignation, what it means for the next decade of humanity and more!

This week we are joined by comedian and writer Mycal Dédé. We recently came across Mycal’s essay “You Have No Bitches, You’ve Never Been With a Baddie, & You Are Scaring the Hoes” and knew immediately that we had to have him on the show. Our goal was simple; we had to understand what was scaring these hoes. Why were they scared? Who scared them the most? When was the first time the hoes had been scared? And finally, to truly do our part as philanthropists, we asked Mycal how the bros could stop scaring the hoes altogether (or at least a tad bit less). We had a great time with Mycal discussing all this and much more!

This week we have our trusted stylist, friend and return guest Jian DeLeon on the pod.

This episode is a must watch so please join us for a hell of a kickback!

WE ARE SO BACK. Ecstatic to announce that Huang's World is back on Complex with an all new season coming soon. Eddie and Natashia spend this episode reflecting on all the times where they thought the show might come back in the past, losing hope and then when the tide started to turn for the show to make its return. We talk the old show versus the new, inspirations for this season and some possible ideas for a follow up season. We've got so much to share with you guys and want to welcome and thank you to celebrate with us.

This week, we’re joined by Ian and Jonah whom Natashia and I met at the Baohaus bar grabbing our post-work drinks. After overhearing their film debate, I quickly went and got some rainbow cookies and struck up what would become a multi-hour conversation with them nerding out about film. So filling in for Natashia this week is Ian and Jonah, discussing the hard hitting topics. What is the greatest Blasian film of all? Has Will Smith ever made a black movie? How do black men beat the whole milk allegations after dating one white woman decades ago? All this and much more is unraveled in this week’s Canal Street Dreams.

This week, Eddie and Natashia break down The Odyssey after seeing it, talking through what hit, what missed, and whether the movie actually lives up to the massive expectations. They get into the performances, standout scenes, Nolan's approach to the story, and where it stacks up against his other films, giving their honest reactions and unpacking the biggest moments from the film.
