Big Beards, Bigger Dreams Podcast: Recent Episodes
Courtney B. Edwards
Big Beards, Bigger Dreams Podcast is a solo effort by writer and culture critic Courtney B. Edwards. Courtney shares personal stories and anecdotes while hilariously discussing various topics — from music, movies, television, fashion, pop culture, and all things nerdy. Courtney's often self-deprecating yet topical style of humor appeals to audiences from diverse backgrounds and cultures.
Courtney discusses the war in Ukraine, can the conflict in Ukraine escalate into World War 3, and his non-spoiler review on The Batman.
Courtney discusses Blockbuster Video; growing up in The Bronx; buying CDs from an actual record store; going to the Garden State Plaza; what happened to the "music" store FYE (For Your Entertainment); should he buy "The Saweetie Meal" from McDonald's; how Wendy's Baconator sandwich is great; brand partnerships are important for musical artists; Megan Thee Stallion is super marketable.
Court talks about Anthony Ramos being told to be "ethnically ambiguous", his adventures eating insects, and the hit sitcom Perfect Strangers and its upcoming reboot from Robin Thede.
It's the first episode. Court gives an introduction to the podcast and talks about cicadas and his new obsession with the television show, Run The World.
