In this joint episode of Carry On Friends, Style & Vibes and Reels & Riddims we are unpacking the  "Bob Marley One Love Movie." Joined by regular guests and audience members, we engage in a lively debate.

Our panel sheds light on the communal legacy of Marley, while casting a critical eye on the choices made in representing the music icon. The temperature rises when we turn to the controversial casting decisions that have sparked dialogue and discontent across Marley's fanbase. The panel wrestles with the complex blend of pride and identity, questioning how family involvement and the absence of screenings in key cultural hubs influence the narrative. We peel back layers of misinformation and  we scrutinize the movie's storytelling fabric, weighing in on the emotional depth and character arcs.

Tune in for this discussion.
