About this episode
On the latest episode of the Talkhouse Podcast , two hip-hop stars who have reshaped how we think about the genre – former Hamilton star Daveed Diggs and The Roots' MC Black Thought – sit down for a fascinating conversation at 30 Rock, recorded after a taping of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon . Over the course of their talk, the two friends discuss each of their long-gestating projects, Daveed's movie Blindspotting and Black Thought's album Streams of Thought , parallels between the current Oakland film explosion and the Philly music boom of the late '90s, Black Thought's (pre- Hamilton ) dislike of musicals, life-work balance, John Malkovich's surprising on-set viewing habits, and much, much more.
