Reid This Reid That: Behind The Scenes: "A Different World" With Felicia Pride!!!

Podcast is approximately 30 minutes long.

"Cousins, Have you heard the news? The A Different World sequel has been renewed for a second season."

"Recently, Felicia Pride, creator, writer, and producer of the Netflix hit joined Joy-Ann and Jacque. She spilled the tea on the behind the scenes dealings that brought the series to the small screen."

"And you'll never guess what made her want to quit before it was even finished."

What movies have you seen that you would NEVER watch again? 🎬

​

Rosewood is a 1997 American historical drama film directed by John Singleton, inspired by the 1923 Rosewood massacre in Florida. It follows a mysterious WWI veteran who arrives in Rosewood and helps the town’s residents defend themselves against a white lynch mob.

My friends and I were shook! We went to the diner after the movie and were practically eating in silence.

Also:

Mandingo (1975)

Gone With The Wind [hate it with a passion, saw it as a child lol 🤮] (1939)

Precious (2009)

Happy 50th Birthday to SITKOL

50 years ago today, (September 28, 1976), Stevie Wonder released what is arguably, one of the Greatest albums ever recorded, if not THE Greatest!

What’s your fave track from Songs in the Key of Life?

Who remembers mood rings??💍

Ca. 1970s.

I had one of these things as a kid lol. It was so much fun! I used to check mine all the time to see what color it was and what mood I was supposed to be in.

Some of you might not remember when mood rings came out. If they had been around when I was a young child, I know I would’ve had one.

Vaseline!!!

Growing up it was the go-to first aid product, moisturizer, body lotion, lip balm, beauty product, etc.

The all around go-to product that cured ALL that ailed you lol.

How did you / your household use Vaseline?

Reid This Reid That: What Rula Jebreal said...and how close to Blackness is close enough?

Excellent episode if you have some time.

"In this episode, the Rula Jebreal controversy sparked a heated conversation about Blackness, belonging and who gets to speak from within the Black experience."

"Plus, Elizabeth Pryor joins Joy-Ann and Jacque to unpack the controversy and the complicated question of cultural proximity and her legendary father, Richard Pryor."
