Captain Durag?!?!? | MSR EP. 33

On this episode of MSR, we’re breaking down culture, controversy, and corporate shakeups.

First, we dive into the debate surrounding Captain Durag, the cartoon character from Hey AJ!. Is the criticism valid? Is it satire? Or are we overreacting? We unpack what the character represents, how Black imagery is handled in children’s media, and why conversations like this matter.

Then, as we close out Black History Month, we highlight influential Black historical figures who shaped culture, politics, activism, and art. From civil rights pioneers to revolutionary thinkers, we reflect on why their impact still resonates today.

Finally, we shift gears to Hollywood business news and share our thoughts on the potential merger between Warner Bros. and Paramount Pictures. What would it mean for streaming, Black-led projects, and the future of media? Is consolidation helping creativity — or killing it?
