Podcasts about Fresh Prince

The Podcast Fresh Network Duo (Ryan Melo & Chris Torres) join me in a Sitcoms Tribute Double Bill: The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air & Living Single.   Which sitcom was probably more grounded in its reality and which one took more liberties?   Which running gags and guest stars on both were rather hysterical?   And where is either one streaming nowadays?

Wir kennen ihn als Fresh Prince von Bel Air, als Agent J in "Men In Black" und als Genie in "Aladdin" und vergessen dabei fast, dass Will Smith ja auch mal Musik gemacht hat beziehungsweise wieder macht! Seit März hat er ein neues Album released mit dem Namen "Based on a True Story" und es wird noch besser: in wenigen Tagen geht er damit auf Tour und kommt für einige Konzerte sogar nach Deutschland! Es gibt also viel zu besprechen – Warum macht er jetzt doch wieder Musik nach so langer Zeit? Was erwartet uns bei seinen Konzerten? Und welchen seiner Film-Charaktere würde er gern mit auf die Bühne nehmen? Die Antworten gibt's hier!

MUSICBeyoncé got stuck dangling in mid-air in a car during her Cowboy Carter show in Houston on Saturday. She did not die. Wolfgang Van Halen discussed his decision to drop the "WVH" from his band Mammoth WVH's name before releasing their latest single 'The End'.Deftones singer-guitarist Chino Moreno has teamed up with KDHK Electronics for the Digital Bath effects pedal. It's named after the track on Deftones' 2000 album White Pony. A vinyl record pressed this year that is illegal to buy in eight states: The Ataris, known for their cover of Don Henley's "Boys of Summer", had their tune, "Car Song", pressed into a limited-edition 7-inch vinyl that was mixed with the ashes of singer Kris Roe's late father, William Charles Roe TVRob McElhenney (Mick-el-hen-ee) from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" is legally changing his name to "Rob Mac". The New York Post reports, “The shortened first and last name brings him much closer to his aggressively dopey beer-slinging character in “Always Sunny” — whose name is “Mac” — and is a far cry from the formality of his former government name, “Robert McElhenney III.” MTV morphed into reality shows and movies but once again, temporarily, will start playing videos again. Beginning on September 1st and running up to the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards on September 7th, music and visuals will combine again. MOVING ON INTO MOVIE NEWS: Brad Pitt's F1 movie won the weekend movie race. The film grossed $55.6 million domestically, while receiving a CinemaScore "A" grade. Vin Diesel shared some major Fast & Furious news at his surprise appearance at FuelFest LA in Pomona, Calif., joining co-star and friend Tyrese Gibson who shared the moment on his Instagram. · MISCThe Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez wedding was this week, but the real show stealer was Sydney Sweeney. Despite the attendance of guests like Tom Brady, Orlando Bloom, Leonardo DiCaprio, Oprah, Bill Gates, and most of the Kardashians . . . a source says Sydney was, quote, "the most sought-after person" to hang out with. AND FINALLYThe '90s weren't THAT long ago, but the culture moves fast. Some of the movies and TV shows that came out back then haven't aged well. 1. "Seinfeld": There's a lot to offend modern sensibilities, but someone specifically mentioned the episode where Jerry was allegedly assaulted by his dentist while he was under, and it was played for laughs. 2. "Doogie Howser, M.D.": Quote, "The first episode has an adult woman pretending to seduce him . . . The second episode is about an adult woman trying to get pregnant by him."3. "Will & Grace": Quote, "I could never get through one episode without feeling that my queerness was being used as a punchline . . . being gay was either silly, or you were doomed to be alone and sad."4. "Friends": Quote, "Fat jokes, gay jokes, everyone in New York is white inexplicably, Ross sleeps with a student, sleeps with his school librarian in high school, tries to kiss his cousin, violates Rachel's boundaries . . . etc." Another brought up the transphobic stuff involving Chandler's parents.5. "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air": This person REALLY went off on Uncle Phil. Quote, "Will was a teenager dating grown women every other episode, and Phil and Vivian just let it happen. "Phil claimed to be pro-Black but voted for Reagan twice, was ashamed of his background as a pig farmer, and detested 'lowly' and working-class Black people."He blamed Will for everything that went wrong, even if he had nothing to do with it. And he was sexist and controlling AF, trying to forbid a 25-year-old Hilary from posing for Playboy or Ashley from doing anything."6. "Mrs. Doubtfire": "Between the transphobia and the part where he makes a pact with the older two kids to keep it a secret from their mom, it hasn't aged well."AND THAT IS YOUR CRAP ON CELEBRITIES!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's Glastonbury weekend, and we're back with the Big Questions.Not a sentence we expected to be saying on No Tags, but we kick off by talking about Will Smith – specifically his recent appearance with London streamer du jour DJ AG. The Fresh Prince is in the middle of a generationally cringe promo run and we've been wanting to discuss AG's streams for a while now, so these two forces colliding over a dubstep remix of the Men in Black theme felt like the perfect opportunity.If you're looking for something more high-brow, well, you still have to get through Tom's full review of the Cooper's Hill Cheese Roll – aka Final Destination: Cotswolds. Once we're through that, it's onto higher ground, debriefing recent experiences at Polyphonic Eating with Yu Su, Warp Records' ‘happening' at The Barbican and a No Tags night out at Corsica for Hodge and Peverelist. Music writers who still go to clubs? Perish the thought!We always say it, but if you like what we're doing on No Tags, please do rate and subscribe on your podcast app of choice – or better yet, leave us a review.

Mike Ferguson in the Morning -President Trump has returned to his senses and will not be giving deportation exemptions for farmhands and hotel workers. If you're here illegally, it's time to go back home. -TDS seems to be highly contagious in the music industry, with a "rock star" recently issuing a statement telling anyone that voted for President Trump that they are not welcome at his shows, and he will give them refunds to not show up. -Is there something in the so-called "Big, Beautiful Bill" that should concern gun owners and 2A-Rights advocates? Patrick Parson of American Firearms Association breaks it down for us. -The "Fresh Prince" has gone stale.

Before he became a global box office superstar, Will Smith was a debt-ridden rapper given a shot at acting by Quincy Jones—and the result was one of the most iconic sitcoms of the 1990s. In this episode, we unpack the unlikely origin story of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, from an impromptu audition at a house party to the creation of a cultural phenomenon that redefined what a Black-led sitcom could be. We take a look at the show's signature mix of humor and heart, exploring how the Banks family—Uncle Phil, Aunt Viv, Carlton, Hilary, Ashley, and Geoffrey—provided the perfect backdrop for Will's street-smart charm. But this wasn't just a fish-out-of-water comedy. The show cleverly tackled race, class, identity, and adolescence, offering both laughs and life lessons in equal measure. From Carlton's unforgettable dance moves to powerful storylines about absentee fathers and racial profiling, Fresh Prince blended silliness with substance in a way few shows managed. We revisit emotional highlights like “Papa's Got a Brand New Excuse,” and explore how James Avery's Uncle Phil became one of TV's most memorable father figures. We also dive into the real-life drama behind the scenes—including Janet Hubert's controversial departure as Aunt Viv—and discuss how the cast ultimately found reconciliation decades later. With insights into the show's impact, its long-running syndication success, and its bold 2022 reimagining Bel-Air, we explore why this series remains a cultural touchstone more than 30 years after its debut. Whether you watched it live on NBC or discovered it through streaming, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air still has the power to make you laugh, cry, and sing along to that legendary theme tune. Join us as we look back at the show that took Will from West Philly to global fame—and changed the sitcom game forever.

Rob Edwards is a thirty-year veteran of movies and television who wrote and produced shows including The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Full House, and In Living Color before writing two classic animated films for Walt Disney Feature Animation: the Academy Awards and Golden Globe nominated The Princess and The Frog, and the Academy Awards nominated Treasure Planet. His new project is the graphic novel Defiant: The Story of Robert Smalls. Rob Edwards reflects on being creative for a living, the difference between tourists and pretenders and being a real professional, and how he feels obligated to both teach and entertain in his work. He also shares what it was like working on such iconic TV shows as Roc and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and managing the pressure and responsibility of being one of the few Black creative workers with his range and depth of experience in Hollywood. Rob Edwards also does some sharing about his approach to writing the new Marvel film Captain America: Brave New World and how Anthony Mackie's character “Sam Wilson” (who is now the new “Captain America”) reflects the much deeper history of the long Black Freedom Struggle and the pressure to always succeed in the face of the (near) impossible. On this special Memorial Day episode of the podcast, Chauncey DeVega continues with his annual tradition of reading an account of the first such remembrance day that took place at the end of the Civil War when now free Black Americans buried Union Army war dead in Charleston, South Carolina and honored their sacrifice and victory over the Confederacy with a huge parade. Chauncey also reads an account written by a member of the United States Colored Troops about his experience(s) in the Civil War and doing battle against the forces of the Confederacy who were determined to keep Black people in bondage. And Chauncey DeVega goes on a journey around his neighborhood and has a surreal series of experiences where he was lucky to not be shot by street pirates, learned from a wise honored elder on the bus, and then encountered a young man who claimed to be a time traveler.

The legendary duo of Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince have been somewhat locked into this singular thought ever since their run ended in '93: That their music is squeaky clean, completely devoid of edge. But when you actually listen to some of the lyrics and subject matter told in the litany of storytelling tracks, they broach some interesting ground.TIMESTAMPS:Weekly Music Roundup - (1:07)Ben:MIKE x Tony Seltzer - Pinball IIKey Glock - Glockaveli: The DonRoc Marciano x Knowledge the Pirate - The Round TableCharlie:Gaidaa - YARNNayla Savannah - Be FreeDARGZ - Friends & FamilyTopic Intro/Ben's Research House - (8:18)Rock the House - (16:00)He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper - (26:26)And in This Corner... - (37:17)Homebase - (49:36)Code Red - (1:01:32)Lighter Note - (1:15:16)Thanks for listening.

This week we are discussing "Speed 2: Cruise Control", which is on the Mount Rushmore of bad sequels. This one had us discussing the terrible shoe-horned plot, not knowing anything about each other after 7 months, Geiger being a lame bad guy, golf clubs being the corny decoy, having a random character from 1 in part 2, and a ton more. The fact that the end sequence cost almost as much as the budget of the original is crazy. So much screaming and nonsense in this one, but a blast to discuss. Watch the unedited video review at sequelsonly.com/speed2The next sequel up is "Nutty Professor II" and for it, I chatted with actress Enya Flack, who had guest spots on some of my favorite shows growing up like Fresh Prince, Wayans Brothers, and more plus she had some great stories from her non-acting work on projects. Enya was a blast in a Roger Corman show called "Black Scorpion", which you must watch. Great chat.Follow us on all social media @sequelsonly, and our website is sequelsonly.com Review, rate, and share us with your friends, enemies, neighbors, exes, and even that annoying supermarket clerk!

Allison and Dax talk about the cast of the Golden Girls actually only being in their 50s, how the highlight of her career was meeting Quincy Jones while casting The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, and why jumping a car over another car is less scary than doing standup comedy. Allison explains the number one mistake actors make in auditions, why McLovin is still the most difficult role she's ever cast, and how she stays hungry and dialed-in after over 41 years on the job.Follow Armchair Expert on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.
