What i'd do for some of Huey's graddads soul food rn. :/
It's like a backwards Klondike bar commercial, only this time it's for a Luther Burger
I luv that Chef G Garvin started showing ways to prepare healthy soul food.
This is what crack must feel like.
I'd contend that this might be the most regressive series you've watched yet.
Every episode uses the same tired "respectability politics" attack on AA culture as the source of their suffering rather than ongoing systemic exploitation.
To be clear: *Soul food isn't the source of the health care crisis, nor is it particularly unhealthy.*
Government subsidy of fast food, the creation of food deserts, industrial processed foods and wealth inequality are the causes of the crisis.
If people could afford to eat soul food, they'd probably be fine. But in reality Ronald McDonald got the block on lock.
I love how the Boondocks successfully explained gentrification and the crack epidemic in a way that was with soul food ..McGruder is a genius for this episode.
Exactly
Wuncler's plan to buy the park was so crazy when I realized how it all came full circle.
Agree
@@kaia.4688Wunclears the 14th bloodline.
I Never Thought Of That .. Wow Thanks
It was Wunclers entire plan to drive down the value so he could buy the park across the street. He said it early in the episode. "I opened a health food restaurant. It's attracting the wrong crowd."
Crying at Chris & Marketa realizing they’re the real life Tom & Sarah🤣🤣
Can't wait until they get to Tom, Sarah and Usher in season 2
Wouldn't let that shxt happen to me tho👀👀🤣
And thugnificent
I can't wait for the booty warrior episode... that episode is hilarious.
They are going to pass dafaq out from laughing when Tom starts going through his feelings lmfao
Can't wait for them to meet the kung fu killer wolf b--ch
Speaking as someone who also loves that movie, Huey's summary of Soul Food is legit one of my favorite scenes in the whole show, lol. 😂
"They didn't learn a lesson, nobody went on a diet, and that's the end of the movie." 😂😂
I’ve always loved Wuncler as an Antagonist. And Pat, oh pat.
Some people can't perceive externalities
This is where I believe the writers got smart. How do you expose two dangers in our society in one episode? Simply add some simplicity and a few jokes and Boom! You can show the people the message you try to convey. This whole episode is one big PSA commercial.
Agree 💯
Not really. The whole episode was what every episode is: disingenuous respectability politics that attacks African American culture as the source of inequality rather than ongoing systemic exploitation.
Soul food really isn't the source of the health care crisis, nor is it particularly unhealthy.
Government subsidy of fast food, the creation of food deserts, industrial processed foods and wealth inequality are the cause of the crisis.
If people could afford to eat soul food, they'd probably be fine. But in reality Ronald McDonald got the block on lock.
and yet monkeys are still eating the bullshit that kills them
@@yessum15they were using unhealthy food as a metaphor for the crack epidemic, genius. 🙄
@@struggleskywalker1025 Ok, first of all not it wasn't. The episode had a *dual meaning.*
Robert Freeman's menu item specifically was a stand in for crack, but the general unhealthiness of soul food depicted was a literal commentary on soul food.
Second, what do you think the primary target of "respectability politics" was during this time?
Hint: The answer is crack, genius.
When it was perceived to be an urban problem, respectability politics framed addiction as the criminal product of moral, cultural, and intellectual failing rather than the product of structural inequity and oppression.
This framing persisted until the rise of opioids made it a rural and suburban problem. Then suddenly addiction was reframed as a medical emergency produced through structural failures.
So once again, copypasta for the beginners:
*This episode reinforces disingenuous respectability politics that attacks African American culture as the source of inequality rather than ongoing systemic exploitation.*
Whether you decide to follow the soul food narrative or the crack narrative, the fundamental argument being made is identical, and it is terrible.
Back to film school with you, I guess. ✌️
So fun fact the Luther Burger is a real burger it being named after Luther vandross and being his favorite meal is completely true as well
I knew I wasn't crazy 😂
I love Ed Asner in the show, he’s just so enjoyable evil in it
Which character he play? 😅 Ed wunceler ?
@@cjjackson2423 Yes, he plays Wuncler.
@@ImperfectXIII Ah then yes I like how evil he is to, like for some reason you can't be mad at him. 😭
He has the best lines I swear.
*long pause*
"IF YOU DON'T GET THAT BULLSHIT OUTTA MY FACE BITCH!"
Wunclers pure disgusts at that petition was gold.
"If you don't get that bullshit out my face, bitch--"
I was crying when I seen that it was so unexpected and his face was in pure disbelief
Sarah offended the entire Black Community by bringing a Peach Cobbler with Peas in it
Lol no one makes peach cobbler with peas. I think that was Riley being an a-hole. Peach cobbler does sometimes look like puke, though, ha ha.
lol
They were Capers not peas.
(don’t ask, white ppl add those in their food for some reason🤷♀️)
@@pixxiespit Ew, you don't use capers in sweet foods. They're good in green salads, fish, and can be decent in protein salads like chicken salad or tuna salad. Sarah must need glasses, ha ha.
I still wanna try it. Peas have a sweet taste, and carrot cake somehow works as a vegetable dessert.
I'm black and love my soul food, but I won't even eat at a house if chitlins are present. That smell is fucking vile!
For those that don't know, imagine walking into a bathroom that someone just blew up, and while your in there, someone offers you a plate of food to eat. How hungry would you be in that moment? That's chitlins!
"Just clean it" people will say, fucking the organ responsible for shit 24/7 when it was alive can't be washed enough for me to eat.
I understand where you're coming from. But they taste so good
That’s codfish for me
Right
@@jasondavis2995 your eating pig shit/guts were not missing anything
The guy interviewing Uncle Ruckus is supposed to be Pat O’Brien from Access Hollywood. Around that time he got recorded drunk dialling somebody lmao
16:45 - That's true of so many episodes of this show, but man it's especially true for this one. The way that The Boondocks is able to provide layers of social commentary in such a hilariously shocking way is the reason it's still one of my favorite shows to this day. That being said, I would absolutely fuck up a "Luther" right about now lol
*I can't wait for yall to meet Thugnificent😭*
Chris getting that worked up about Peach Cobbler is relatable AF
I was eating a salad while watching this lol. As a black person I rock with soul food alot, hits hard. But even as a kid I knew that wasn't something people should eat all the time. Also these reactions really reminds me how well written the Boondocks really was. There's always multilayers to everything in an episode.
yeah trying to eat good is hard even as Indian person, curry, rice, kabobs, and chicken tikka (I love chicken tikka masala so much)
They ain't ready for Ruckus' full power 😭🤣
Or his masters in the ancient arts of the nunchucku 🤨🤚🏾😭
You mean uncle Rúckús
@@HighLordBlazeReborn no relation
That is a great explanation hypothesis, Ruckus works everywhere because Wuntzler owns everything everywhere, and Ruckus works for HIM.
8:14 “Why is he like this?”
Childhood trauma, that’s why.
This is my favorite episode of season 1. So excited!!
8:08 Marketa's expression! 😂😂😂 Pure gold!
I aint gon lie…Urban Turban sound lik a fire idea 👀 🤤
He aint wrong, chitlins made me hate thanksgiving cause my dad would clean them the night before i got to smell them all night
The Itis is no joke
bro did not just disrespect soul food like that 17:26
29 years of life, I NEVER put it together that Ed fucked the neighborhood on purpose to make the park cheeper to buy. That's nutty as squirrel shit 😳
With us black people, the "itis" is short for "niggaitis". Meaning after a big meal you get tired.
Yall need to do a group reaction to dont be a menace to South Central while drinking your juice in the hood
Going to need 9:26 as a ringtone or something 😂😭
LOL @ Rana explaining to Suraj the comment wasn't directed at him.
it was all intentional! Ed Wuncler said he wanted it to be a more "urban" area and attract a certain crowd. the whole time he was trying to devalue the neighborhood and get rid of the health food which attracted middle class people
The reporter interviewing Ruckus was from a show called "Access Hollywood" back in the day and he kinda talked like that.
this has become my favorite thing to look forward to every week and now that yall did it we can watch a bunch of other creators watch it on the trend train
"I had Chico modify the bed like the Mexicans do with their cars."
I fucking lost it at that part. Because we all knew exactly what the fuck was gonna happen.
12:41 is some of the best commentary I've ever seen from a reactor ever! That was a top-tier steady assertion! Keep up the good work normies!
I love Jamaican Food and Soul Food.
Rana was disturbed lol
They already have soul food Indian food, its call west indian cuisine lol, you can get BBQ chicken, rice and peas, and mac n cheese with a side of curry and roti, or a curry chicken roti wrap
19:07 Back in the day, the taste of Chicago was a hit
I’m totally in for a Soul Food reaction. Also don’t know how it would do but the Carmichael Show (on Hulu) would be a reaction series I’d watch. Very short- 3 seasons probably less than 50 episodes. Had kinda of a Boondocks feel. Tackles some real, kinda touchy things with great humor
Nah the Urban Turban sounds FIRE
I think your concept of a European fair is more British stereotypes than anything.
We get mostly junk food and wine here in Portugal.
Burgers, churros and waffles dipped in chocolate and such, hot dogs, and some other things I don't know how to name in english
I love the normies watching this lol. There's so many funny parts you gotta rewind to catch everyone's reactions
I Can't Wait Till You Guy's,Get To Season 2,You Will Definitely Love That Season Forsure 😊
I had a nursing assistant teacher in high school and she hated the phrase “senioritis” bc itis mean inflammation. -Osis means “strange condition of”
So when a senior is tired of school and doesn’t take it seriously the better phrase should be Seniorosis
as someone well versed in nutrition, the funny thing is organ meats are FAR more nutritious than muscle meats... that's where the body keeps all the vitamins and nutrients is organ tissue... the reason "soul food" is unhealthy is not because of the organ meats but because they're cooked and fried in ultra processed oils and the animals are unhealthy from their own terrible diets... if you're able to get the meat from healthy animals and use healthy, unprocessed fats to cook with (no frying), then it's a perfectly healthy meal
The peach cobbler is sacred, his point is incredibly valid.
cant wait for them to watch the "attack of the killer kung fu wolf bitch episode"
The urban turban sound Delicious
Hearing about deep fried butter for the first time as a European has definetely been eye opening
Sounds so gross 😂
Deep fried butter sounds bad
Im from the south and ive never seen deep fried butter
The awareness of some soul food being unhealthy has always been there. Richard Pryor was joking about it in the 70s lol.
Damn, Rana really went in there at the end
Exactly the reaction I was expecting from this episode. Lol
I feel a little bad for Robert but there’s a brag to cooking food so good it destroys a neighborhood. Reputation wise it’s a solid win.
Five more episodes left of this season then finally season 2
Love the Indiana state fair, been missing it since I left the state 😭
Vegetables in a dessert ...
Peas in peach-cobbler seems wrong, but carrot-cake works...and peas are kinda sweet. Maybe a good, unique flavor. I don't know. I do want to try it.
Love how this episode goes from criticizing black food culture, to immediately showcasing shady underhanded real estate tactics propagated by white men. This show is something else.
They cut out my favourite line that was foreshadowing the end. “The city is trying to butt fuck me on the price, but we’ll see who butfucks who”
urban turban lmao love it
This is one of my favorite episodes
marketa's earrings here are GORG i'm jealous
As Always Love Seeing Your Reactions, Everyone
Chitterlings are banging.
*ew* 🤮🤮
"Because Free labor is the cornerstone of US economics"-Marketa and Chris. Shout out to Killer Mike's Reagan , great song
4:40 *SOUNDS LIKE AN ENDORSEMENT TO ME*
Gonna take a while with these dropping once a week but I love it man
Big mommas house I’m crying 😭😭😭😂😂
Peach cobbler is high stakes at black functions
Riley dramatic af!! lol.
I lovvvve the Luther Burger!!!! The SC coastal fair makes it and you can add toppings🤤 I always add extra grilled onions and pickled jalapeños. Me and my besties split one every year. You can also opt for the 1/4 pound patty
Free-man He’s from a time where it was a flex to be friends with a black person and that’s why he says free man like that 😂
Nah, Rana not knowing about the Soul Food movie is sending me 😂😂😂
some workers who don't have authorized residence but want to get it someday file taxes so that it helps the process
If you are referring to undocumented immigrants. It’s somewhat true. Filing taxes proves physical presence and family ties in the USA. It’s possible that it will also avoid future problems with the IRS.
Itis is Latin for "inflamed". Arthritis=bone inflammation. Bronchitis=bronchial inflammation. This episode is referring to "Nigga-itis"
I was watching this to caramelized steak in cheesecake sauce covered with cookie dough peanut butter ice-cream and chocolate onions.
Scotland has deep fried mars bars lol
Season 1&2 peak boondocks
The guy in the scotus shirt is a real life Tom?
Dam that was a fast one.
You can get the Luther at Hawkins burgers on Central and Imperial
9:33 what did she say. 😂😂
Chitlins, we don't eat that s***😅
The GTA 3 reference!!!!
Need more Boondocks reactions
Wuncler about to build the mondo burger
I eat chitlins but only with hot sauce and only on Thanksgiving and Christmas.
7:37
He sounds like Bently The Turtle from Sly Cooper. 🤣
Not Suraj quoting Donald love in GTA 3
13:55 Amen, Huey
Love yall beautiful people
Peas belong in peach cobbler as much as raisins in potato salad!
The centennials in Okinawa eat a high pork diet, the issue is really processed or greasy foods that are harder to digest.
I'm black, me and my cousin hate chitlins. We just couldn't get past that smell 🤢 😂
I tried them once and accidentally put cake sauce on them and ate it 😅
I've heard that the Luthor is actually pretty good. I haven't tried it myself, I fear that I might die from a heart attack 😂
I ain’t eating chitlins. Naw b they put that in front of me as a kid and I went ahead and took that beating that day. I’m not eating it
18:02 Im with Suraj I do not FW the fair food ideky 😂
Also i cant wait for them to see the fights. This anime idc 😭😭😭
Damn, I'm kinda hungry for some of that it's food now.
Thats a long ass couch
