Daniel Grant on Life

Writer and producer Daniel Grant -- who also co-hosts the podcasts Spoiled Rotten and Uncolonized -- is here to tackle Life, Ted Demme's 1999 comedy in which Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence play New Yorkers in the deep South who are convicted of murder in the 1930s and sentenced to life in prison. It's a comedy about lives destroyed by systemic racism. Your genial host Norm Wilner just wants you to remember that 1999 was a different time.
