• 1:42
  Speaker 1: to money making Conversations, Tamarin Hall. It's so good to
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: be with you. Hey, Tamar, set you up right, and
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: you know you're doing so much. I just say, I
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: gotta gotta get the intro, ride, gotta get the flows.
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, you did better than Wikipedia and my mother.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: You're good. I'm a Texas boy born and raised in Houston, Texas,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: so I know your background from Texas as well. So
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: how's life treating you right now? Being an Emmy award
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: window being picked up for things considered? You know, it's
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: so hard we're trying to answer that question these days,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: as you know, because it's with everything that's happening in
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the world and all of the difficulties and challenges. It's
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: you don't want to say I'm great, but all things considered,
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: I'm good. My family is healthy, my son is healthy,
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: and I have the show and a platforms just like
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: you to use our voice in the right way. Well,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: it's really important, I know. You know, I launched Steve
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: Harvey's talk show in twenty twelve, and I was waiting
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: for five years on in Chicago, and in fact, we
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: met a couple of times with New York with Today's
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Show and all those to the things. So I know
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: the difficulties of doing a talk show, and people don't
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: understand five days with the preparation. Can you just tell
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: people the difficult nature of the preparation that you have
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: to get into to do affortive two minute show at
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: least five days a week. I mean, I know people
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: are gonna say, are you kidding me? But I'll say
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: it is like preparing for the NBA Finals every day.
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: It really it is. I mean, it's no joke. You
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: have got to constantly focus on the moment, focus on
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: the guests. It's rewarding because I'm so proud of the
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: conversations that we've been able to have on the show, UM,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: from a Frank candidate conversation about women of color and
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: white women, conversations on being non binary and or what
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: that means, to having Andrew Gillen and his wife Tamar Braxton,
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: all of these different people who come on and open
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: up UM to me, into the show and to the
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: people watching at home. And I think, to your point,
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: it is it is the hardest job I've ever had.
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: I mean, I thought, you know, being at the Today's
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Show for you know, three hours, and then running over
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: and hosting an hour at MSNBC, and then on the
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: weekend shooting dead like time. I thought that was a
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: difficult package, this daytime talk show because most important, it
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: has my name, UM, and that is my stamp, if
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you will. That's what people you know, see, it's if
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: something goes right or wrong, it's the timber Hall Show.
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: And so that bears a big responsibility bringing my staff
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: back UM during the pandemic safely and implementing UM safeguards
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: to keep the show back on air. Those are all
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: big responsibilities I never could have prepared myself for because
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: we didn't know we were gonna be at a pandemic.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: But yes, just out of basic level, as you know,
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: a daytime daily talk show, it is not the exan
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Oprah has said it to me. We had Tire Banks
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: on the show as well, and they both have commented
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: on just how hard it is and to be a
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: new mom. On top of that, it's growing. Well, you know,
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: let's talk about before we even get more into the
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: talk show. I try to do a little extra research
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: and find interesting things. And I went to your Instagram
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: account and I saw something that said the Purple Leash Project,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: and um, you know what exactly is that? Why is
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: that important you because it's on your Instagram account? Yeah,
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: it is. It's a partnership that I had earlier, uh
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: this year with Purina. And the concept is we talk
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: a lot about domestic violence as it relates to family
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: and children. And I think to your points, since you've
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: done your research, you know that my sister was a
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: victim of domestic violence. And one of the parts of
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: this crisis that is not often discussed are the families
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: who stay or women who stay in homes with abusers
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: because they don't want to leave their beloved pet behind
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: and they stay in this situation. It's difficult to imagine,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: but it happens on a scale that you could not
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: and would not believe. Right now, there are so many
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: shelters willing to, of course take in women and children,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: but they don't have the room or the accommodations for pets.
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: And we are working to get the number up to
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: around twenty five by the year twenty five of the
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: shelters in the country UM, so that they can accommodate
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: people who are fleeing dangerous home and bring their pets
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: with them. I toward you know you talked about this
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: being Texans. I was in Dallas for Worth a couple
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: of years ago, and I went to a shelter for
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: families UM and they had an area for the pets.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I couldn't believe that it was packed. Each little you
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: know cage had a pet a family member in it,
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: you know, and I say family members because for so
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: many of us, our pets are family members. So I
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: partner with Prena to bring attention to that component of
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: the domestic violence conversation, and it's really important. That's why
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: I wanted to bring it out, because I tried to
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: bring up things organically and and also knows this episode
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: is going to air before November thirty. Then I noticed
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: a real fun contest about the tam Fam Thanksgiving contests.
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: Will used to be a short video on your Instagram
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: account telling Cameron what you're so thankful for, And I
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: wanted to promote that in my newsletter, saying that's so cute.
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: So the reason I like your show so much is
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: that you you you feel organic and you feel relatable,
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: and that tam Fam Thanksgiving contest seems lying and stuff
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: right up there. You know, giving people who need money too,
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: or two and fifty dollars right now doing the pandemic
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: and no stimulus package is a lot of money right now.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Absolutely it is, and you know, and it's for us,
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: any opportunity to share the love and to give people
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: just a little thank you. Obviously, you know you can't
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: bribe viewers to watch. You still have to put on
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the content and bring the conversation and bring them things
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: that they want to talk about. But for us, any
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: opportunity to remind people that family matters. We were just
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: saying the other day, you know you won't be able
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to have dinner with those that you love, but that
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean you still can't enjoy good meal. So we're
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: even doing a recipe, bringing some of your favorite recipes
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: and send it to the tamral Sean making with my
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: mama's banana pudding. I can't be with heart. We know
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: we'll be together soon, and so for us, it's just
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: about having fun what we can, you know, embracing the
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: tough days, but you know, hanging on to the great
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: joyful days as well. Now when you when you talk
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: about family, and that's what Thanksgiving really us all about.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: And and you see the COVID just flying off the
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: charts right now. And like I had a big celebration
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: I was gonna do with my office. I do it
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: every year. I do a big celebration for my staff,
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: for people in the business in Atlanta, and uh you,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: on Monday, I was gonna do it that Monday of
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: Thanksgiving them. I told my staff today, I don't think
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it this year because of COVID and ainteen.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: How has that I know you show what virtual, but personally,
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: how did it affect you and how you've been able
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: to give the message out to your to your to
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: your viewers or your to your followers on Instagram or
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: responsibility you feel you playing all that, Tamra, I mean, well, listen,
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: when our show first halted production mid May because the
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: city shut down, we started doing the show from my home,
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: and the entire rest of the season honestly was focused
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: on the pandemic and the crisis and educating people and
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: letting people know that while yes we are a daytime
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: talk show, at my core, I'm a reporter for thirty years.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: One of the most life changing interviews that I've done
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: was with a woman whose husband they were just recently married,
• 9:26
  Speaker 1: and he went into the barbershop to get a haircut.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: He contracted COVID and died, and she played with people
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: on our show, please a haircut, a nail appointment is
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: not worth it. And that was just as Atlanta was
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: about to reopen gradually against the wishes of the mayor,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: who was concerned that we didn't know enough about you know,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: the spread and that people would be packing into beauty
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: salons and hair salons um and so here was this
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: amazing woman in the midst of her pain, sharing that warning,
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: particularly for African Americans and people of color who were
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: contracting and dying at a disproportionate rate. So those are
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: the parts of the show where the responsibility kicks in
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: and one that we recognize as real. It's really interesting because,
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: and you're absolutely right, I've been wining the pandemic first hit,
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: and like everybody, I didn't know what to do, Tamar.
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: You know, I went, I went out to home depot.
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: I had had my gloves, I had my parrel, I
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: have my mask, and and when I went into the
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: into the home depot, I didn't know if to uh,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: do I spray the cart that I'm pushing, or when
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: I come out, do I take my gloves off. It
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: really was an uncomfortable moment for me. I just locked in.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I just stayed in my place, and now I go out.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: I'm safely going out, you know. But I I'm a
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: lot more comfortable with this new normal that we live in,
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: and I feel that that's what's happening with you guys
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: coming back to work. It's a new normal that we
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: have to live in and deal with, even though we're
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: not comfortable. We have to deal with that world. And
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: and then you're raising the child and that whole environment
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: is even more scary for you, right, yeah, you know,
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: but I try to I'm a person of faith. Also,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: I'm a person who believes in science like you. I'm
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you know, but I know that we will get on
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: the other side of this, and I know that, you know,
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: we will be able to look back at it and
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: hopefully become better people, stronger people. With my son's eighteen months,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: I think about his generation and what we will be
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: able to share with them, um, regarding how we survived it,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: what we learned about ourselves this, you know, I know
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: the show talks about money and how we have, you
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: know what's really important? Did you really need the extra shoes?
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: Do you really need the bigger this? Sort of the
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: bigger that? Because at the end of the day, this
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: situation made us strip down to what is important and
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: I hope our kids can learn from that. Well, let's
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: get to this Emmy and award. When he showed that
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: you host a daytime Emmy and when you won, you
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: know it's a big deal. I got my two and
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: I'm proud of my too. I got a couple of
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: UH Image Awards to go along whin it. What was
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: your feeling when you wanted to aim it for informative
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: talk show? Oh my god, I never saw it coming.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: I never imagined that. I was at home with my
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: fail when you saw how it feels. It's like, yes,
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: of course your name is in it, and there's a
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: part of you want to win, but you prepare yourself
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: for In my case, it's my first season, there's no way. Um,
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: you know other shows, you know the view is in it,
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: and this one's in it, and it's just that is
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: not gonna happen. So I had accepted just the honor
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: of being nominated in my first season as my prize.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: You know that that was my win, and I had
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: forgotten that it was even on I was home with
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: my mother, she was with us, and my husband and
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: my child, and I was getting ready to go to
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: bed because it was late at night. It was virtual
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: and I was like, okay, I'm I can't I'm too
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: tired to stay up to watch. And I got a
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: call from my friends and they said, oh, congratulations, I
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: mean win her, and I'm like, whatever, what are you
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: talking about? If you want I'm like, we're all screaming
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: in my house. It was great. You know, it's just
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: one of those things that happened that you don't expect
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: and it's such a source of pride. But it also
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: reminds you to keep working. You know that that's one stop. Now,
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: Let's let's continue and let's prove that the Emmy you
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: have is one that you've earned and deserved, and you
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: just keep going. That's why I compare it to you know,
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: being in the NBA Finals. If it's one game, you're
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: in and out, but it's a series and you've got
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: to win the series, and we look at it as
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: winning the series. Congratulations. He was a note I picked
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: up and said, Tamarin Hall leaps. In fall, the sophomore
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: Talker unleashed the largest leap of all syndicated shows, and
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: the season ending October skyrocketing to a new season high
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: households and shooting up thirty and the Key Women demo
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: that you know, I've been in this game, I know
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: what that means. That that's really you know, you can't
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: ask for to come into the second season with that
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: type of reaction, what are you doing and is it
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: just uh, what the work you put in doing COVID
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: and not giving up and doing virtual to come back
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: with those type of number twenty percent leap and thirty
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: three leap, you know. I think it's a combo of things.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I think, first of all, I learned in the first
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: season to lean in, as they say to who I
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: am you know again in TV and people will come
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: in and they'll say, Oh, that's a great idea, but
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: let me change you, or that's a great idea, but
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: let's do this. I learned, especially during the pandemic two,
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: own the idea and the intention of the show that
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: I pitched and sold. I'm also lucky that I ended
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: up with Candy Carter as my executive producer. She was
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: the COEP at The View and she worked with Oprah
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: for twenty plus years on the open win for show
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: when it was in Chicago. And so Candy came who
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: by the way it was in reduced to me by
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Tyler the Perry. She came with such a skill set
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: of storytelling and she saw the vision and she agreed
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: with the vision of talking with people. We didn't have to,
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: you know, rush in a bunch of tricks and a
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: bunch of things that just didn't resonate or matter. She
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: and I said, we're gonna lean in and we're gonna
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: have a conversation. We're gonna give an entire hour to
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Andrew Gellum and his wife because people will sit down
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: and watch it. You know, the notion that the attention
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: span is so short that you have to just blood
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: the show with sixteen thousand different topics, and you know,
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: we decided that we were going to bet on the
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: idea that people would sit down for the hour and
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: settle in and watch the show. And we've seen that resonate.
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: We've seen people come in for the Tamar Braxton interview
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: that we did exclusively and watch the entire interview, which
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: was almost forty minutes, because we could have on on
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: even longer. To be honest with you, how do you
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: have someone on with such a complicated situation and rushed
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: them in three questions and out? And I think that
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: happens far too often. And we decided that that was
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: not going to be the lane we occupy. We were
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: going to challenge the idea that people will sit down
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: and they will have a conversation. It worked out in
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: the kinds of guests we now get. We had Matthew
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: McConaughey on for almost an hour of our show talking
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: about his new memoir and revealing very intimate details about
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: his life because I think people now know this is
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: where I can go and I can have a conversation
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: and also plug whatever I'm working on, but I can
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: actually come and talk, you know, Gabrielle Union, Dennis Quaid,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: Whoopi Goldberg, NFL called Kelly Reeba, Ryan Seacrest, Venus Welleves.
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: That's a that's when when when I just talking to
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: my listeners and viewers right now, when I say how
• 16:56
  Speaker 1: difficult it is to go from a Tracy Bogan, who
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: was very funny, you know, to a Venus Week which
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: is one of the all time great tennis players too.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: This is what we're talking about when we say the
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: difficult nature of prepping and being emotionally engaged with your guests.
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: That's the fascinating That's that's that's the most fascinating part
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: about being a daytime talk show Home Correct and being
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: renewed for the third season. I felt that same way
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: when I was in, you know, in the news business. Um,
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: which is incredible that you end up. Um, you know
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: what's what's it's it's you can't make your day up.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: You know, as a reporter, I go in, I know
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: the assignment I'm going to have, but I can't tell
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: you the twists and turns of that assignment. Where is
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: it going to go? And with this show, it's the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: same way, you know, that's the exhilarating part. I sometimes
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I know the question I'm going to ask, but I
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: have no idea how that person is going to answer
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: the question. And that just sets the stage for an
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: exciting day and one that I think I just I
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: leave exhilarated. I leave knowing more than I knew when
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: I went in, and sometimes even being inspired many times,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: I should say being inspired. Now you interviewed the Vice
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: President elect Kamala Harris and seeing her her speak before
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: President elect Joseph Biden, UM moved me out of a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: daughter or have six sisters? I know how powerful and
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: how the black woman or the woman of color can.
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: We expect a lot from you guys, and sometimes we
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: don't get a lot in return, especially in the Democratic Party.
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: How moving was it and just seeing what she's doing
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: and what she's accomplished. What you're accomplishing, Miss Hall right
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: now in moving into one what role do you play?
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: And what role? And what what? What opportunity is a
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: Kampala Harris offered to women of color or children of
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: color moving forward? I think so many. I mean, first
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: of all, two black women and two families. Um, it
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: is to see this woman the most powerful woman now
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: in America and a black woman, a woman of color
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: is huge. This is as monumental, honestly as Barack Obama
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: is ascension to president because cases like Brianna Taylor and
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: Sandra Bland have largely made us feel that Black women
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: are not protected, are not heard, are not always valued.
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: And I think seeing her guide her steps with great direction,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: with great ambition, she's not um. You know, she's a
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: woman who attended an HBCU, she's you know, a k A.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: All these things that she shines a light on now
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: are incredibly powerful because you know, honestly, the thing that
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: distinguishes her from Barack Obama most is she has lived
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: a Black American experience in an urban city of America,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: and I think that is powerful. Her relatability is different
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: than his, both clearly inspiring but very different. She grew
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: up in Oakland. She went to Howard University, not an
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: IVY League, you know, traditional IVY League school, but the
• 20:21
  Speaker 1: Ivy League of Black schools. And that is powerful well.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Also being a sorority. Remember like you said of a
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: k A, I'm a member of MAKA SACTI fire. I
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: know you know you go there. That is like a kinship,
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: a sisterhood of brotherhood. And even know that exists, I
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: mean you know I again, I was a report of
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: many years. When people think fraternity and sorority, they think
• 20:44
  Speaker 1: of a frat house and John Belushi something on a
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: white campus and they're got beer kegs and that dada,
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: this stereotype, not knowing this incredible lineage and legacy that
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: exists within African American HBCUs and servicebriority and fraternity. Now
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: would you would you being? With the show being renewed
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: for a third season? Applause, applause, applause, applause, fantastic and
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: the Amy winner for their first season, moving into a
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: great start to the second season, What do we expect
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: the upcoming shows to be? A what is your goal? Now?
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: You know, like you said earlier, being true to your voice.
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: You know, you didn't want to be pigeonholed and being
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: told what to do, because you know, you're learning yourself
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: and as you get through you get more comfortable about
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: this is what I want to do. This is my
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: lane of comfortence. What what is the show for the
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: second season moving forward? As it continues to grow? You know,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: I think it's just getting people. We have this catch
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: line we're talking to the people you're talking about, and
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: that's something that we are embracing and we're leaning in
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: on that. But most important to me and for me
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: is that folks who are at home launching know what
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: they're getting. They're getting a real conversation. I hope they're
• 21:56
  Speaker 1: getting smart questions they're not getting, you know, the idea
• 22:01
  Speaker 1: that all we want is a steady diet of gossip
• 22:05
  Speaker 1: and nonsense, you know, just to be honestly with you,
• 22:08
  Speaker 1: that we are looking for substantive ways to make our
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: lives better as people, as parents. You know, the human
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: experience is a common thread. At the end of the day,
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: I don't want someone keeping me from my dreams. I
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: don't want someone, you know, standing in my way. I
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: want inspiration I want to be a better wife, I
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: want to be a better daughter, I want to be
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: a better mom, I want to be a better leader.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: And so that's a big part of what we talk
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: about on our show because that's what we all have
• 22:37
  Speaker 1: in common. We want, I think most of us to
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: be the best. I'm not an inspirational speaker. I'm not
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: a motivational speaker like yourself. But I know people who
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: are like you and get you on the show and
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: tell us. You know, I don't. I tell people all
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: this Yallozan fixes lives. I'm still trying to fix my own.
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: So I'm not there for that. But I am there
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: with my team of producers to bring in writers and
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: and and real people and actors who actually want to
• 23:06
  Speaker 1: come on and have a conversation. Well, she is a
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: motivating person. She is an instation. I'm talking about you.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: I'm talking about you. No, I'm talking about you. You
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: are motivated, You are an inspiration. My daughter is twenty
• 23:20
  Speaker 1: three going on twenty four. Uh, and she she she
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: admires you. She watches your show. That's important because you're reachable.
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying this all you're reachable. That
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: means you're an age where she can see that's not
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: far away from me. I can go get that and
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: that's what you and I love that. I tell the
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: kids all the time. The ones I've entered said, I
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: look forward to you replacing me. I've been replaced by
