Regina King Speaks On Being Grateful For The Gifts And Awards She Has Received (Video)

Mm mm mm. Regina King is still fine as wine! Wow. Glad she is getting even more recognition for excellence at her craft and well wishes from fans. But see, I’m kinda salty now.

Truth is, I have been crushing on Regina for most of my life… and she’s been saving that love for Sam Elliott? Sam Elliott?? Well, if she’s gonna throw ‘Road House’ in the argument, I have to understand. I was just watching that movie for the umpteenth time a couple of days ago. Still bitter though. And now I hear his voice from that loading dock fight scene (here) in my head saying, “Hot damn that hurts doesn’t it,” as I imagine him kanoodling with my sweetie Regina

(Nah, I did not take that fantasy-into-regret moment too far at all, did I? Hahahaaa!)

Regina talks about her success during this awards season for her film ‘If Beale Street Could Talk,’ giving acceptance speeches, meeting her celebrity crush at the Golden Globes, and what she did for her birthday.

A Look Into Rap Beef & What It’s Really Good For… NOTHING (Video)

In episode 103 of RTTS we explore the beefs in Hip-Hop, the point when conflicts arise and egos trip.

From rap battles to straight physical violence, are certain ways of conducting beef good for Hip-Hop or is it helping destroy the culture?

Gary Vaynerchuk & Jim Jones Come To The Table With Some Boss Talk (Video)

I know when you start this video and see Capo talking to Gary it will seem like there is a disconnect. But hang in there. Separately, we’d listen to either of these guys, right? Trust that the energy will change for the better, for the real, quickly!

(Of course, Gary does most of the talking… with a few folks, including Jones, jumping in with questions and comments.)

If you asked me whether I’m more scared for kids growing up in the projects or trust fund babes?

I’d say trust fund babies. Hands down.

Kids growing up with struggle know how to grind and deal with adversity.

But when you’ve had everything handed to you your whole life, you get soft … and it’s harder to deal with things like economic meltdowns or the problems that come with entrepreneurship.

Wish more people understood that the biggest privilege you could have is mental privilege … people with money don’t always have it made!!

Bill Burr Speaks On Butt Models And Not Being Politically Correct (Video)

Bill Burr. I have followed him for a while. I know he can take it ‘there’ and beyond… Like he does in this interview. And I will admit to almost not posting this because Burr goes beyond. Then I saw a commenter note, “I really wish Patrice [O’Neal] was still around.”

Point made and taken. Patrice was right there with Bill on that ‘take it there’ (e.g. going super non-politically correct) level. And they both frequented Chappelle’s Show on Comedy Central back in the day… Hilarious!

So here we go. Burr in an interview with his balls out.

(Not literally. That would be too far.)

Controversial Sports Commentator Jemele Hill Always Had A Strong Sense Of Who She Was, Before And After Her Time At ESPN (Video)

Above: Jemele Hill speaks on what it felt like leaving ESPN after more than a decade. There really wasn’t a mourning period. More than just the controversial Tweets and stands she took. By the time President Trump came ‘sniffing & riffing’… It had been time.

In this clip, Jemele Hill speaks on having three years left on her contract and being bought out via an offer. Hill noted that things weren’t already going right on ‘Sportscenter’ by the time the issues with Donald Trump happened, so she didn’t have plans on coming back to the show.

Hmmm… forgot about the production stuff she got into. Dope!
