This week we sit down to discuss one of 7th Heaven's most infamous episodes, as the show confronts racism for the first time. To be honest, there's not much to joke about because the episode is outright terrible. We explore what exactly went wrong, if these types of mistakes are still a mainstay of American television, and the necessity of including minority voices in writing rooms.
The essay by Tahirah Hairston we mentioned at the top of the show: These very special '7th Heaven' episodes about black people are cringey as hell
