Carl Jones discussed the fourth season of "The Boondocks," which received poor reviews due to lack of the "spark" seen in previous seasons. He attributed this to the absence of key contributors who brought a unique element to the series. Jones also discussed Aaron McGruder's 2013 Kickstarter for a live-action movie featuring Uncle Ruckus, which he had no involvement in. The conversation continued with news of a two-season reboot of "The Boondocks" announced in 2019 by HBO Max. However, this project did not proceed and remains uncompleted. The series was highly valued for its perfectionist quality, involving meticulous attention to details – from hand-published leaves to correctly tied shoelaces. The pressure of maintaining this high standard, coupled with the passing away of voice actor, John Witherspoon, may have contributed to the stalling of the project. Vlad ended by touching on Aaron's work on the series, "Black Jesus," which lacked the "magic" of The Boondocks according to the guest.
