Podcasts about Brown sugar

This week on Zoning Out, we open with laughs and life updates — from Instagram milestones to failed juggling goals. We also explore the massive AWS outage that briefly broke the internet and debate whether the world needs an “offline holiday.” Later, we get personal about sacrifices for stand-up comedy, missing once-in-a-lifetime concerts for club gigs, and drawing the line between passion and overwork. We close the episode reflecting on the passing of R&B icon D'Angelo, the legend behind Voodoo and Brown Sugar — and whether genius justifies being impossible to work with.   Plus:  The wild story of ODB and Mariah Carey's “Fantasy” remix  The sudden closure of the Cherokee Comedy Zone  The myth of cancel culture in entertainment  A candid look at comedy club dynamics and “hobbyist” comics  How smartphones destroyed our ability to read  And a hilarious tangent about Cinemax, VHS tapes, and awkward teenage memories  Subscribe & mash that like button for more comedy, chaos, and culture every week.   Follow us on IG: @ZoningOutPodcast | @MrWilliamsComedy | @KingJasonAllen | @JordanCentry

Hello, one more ep for D'Angelo but as I was listening to this, I realized what a canon episode this is. Shoplifting from the airport, going to watch the State of the Union Address, plus a Big Bopper call. I also left all of Russell's original notes in the episode because they are brilliant.      We are the world. We are children. We are the ones who make the best podcast about D'Angelo and the 183rd greatest album of all time, Brown Sugar, so you should start listening.1   Before we get to the music, we provide our rebuttal to the State of the Union with some discussion about the Wizard of Oz, the keys to good hospitality, and 44 days of amazing music in 1991.2  We're also your accountability buddy when it comes to airport etiquette when we chat about security checkpoint stops and normalizing kiosk shoplifting.   Then at (55:00) this podcast takes a smooth turn when we discuss D'Angelo's 1995 debut studio album Brown Sugar. We discuss D'Angelo's double entendres, the Voodoo sound, and the best weed songs ever.3   Next week we just want to have fun when we become the best Cyndi Lauper podcast and cover her 1983 debut studio album, She's So Unusual.    1. The opening of this writeup was a play on words from the song We Are the World, which was covered in the 2024 Documentary, The Greatest Night in Pop.   2. If our discussion of the 7 Legendary Rock Albums that were released in 44 days gives you the perfect body feeling, then reading this article reference will put a little mustard on it.   3. If you think this video of Snoop Dogg and Willie Nelson singing Roll Me Up and Smoke Me When I Die deserves a two-star rating then you probably should've just left this podcast about 15 minutes earlier.

Talks in regards to NFL, College football, MLB, Timbaland Way, and remembering a legend

Justin Timberlake BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Timberlake has been front and center in headlines over the past few days for a mix of personal revelations professional developments and emotional tributes. Capping off a two-year run of his Forget Tomorrow World Tour and facing waves of criticism after a lackluster viral performance at Romania's Electric Castle Timberlake took to Instagram to break his silence. According to Parade he disclosed that he's been privately battling Lyme disease which has caused relentless nerve pain fatigue and sickness during his shows. Timberlake shared that while he considered stopping touring altogether he ultimately chose to push through finding joy and mental tenacity in the experience. He expressed his gratitude to fans and family including Jessica Biel and their sons while also hoping to raise awareness for others suffering with the disease.The pop icon's social media feeds have been busy. His post addressing the health battle came alongside a deeply personal homage to neo-soul pioneer D'Angelo who passed away from pancreatic cancer at age 51. On Instagram and echoed by ABC Audio and American Songwriter Timberlake reflected on the transformative influence D'Angelo's music had on his own voice calling albums like Brown Sugar and Voodoo pivotal and transcendent. The heartfelt essay ended with Timberlake saluting the trailblazer for reshaping R&B and music culture.Meanwhile Timberlake's name has resurfaced in the ongoing Spears-Federline media drama. As reported by UNILAD and Entertainment Tonight Kevin Federline is promoting a new memoir with claims that Britney Spears called Timberlake the night before her wedding in 2004 sparking renewed speculation and fan debate over whether the two had lingering feelings. Federline insists she wanted final closure but fans are calling his revelations opportunistic while Britney's camp accuses him of profiting off her as child support payments end.On the business front Timberlake remains a player in vertical farming ventures. The Straits Times noted that despite a downturn in the industry Timberlake's backing of high-tech urban agriculture alongside other celebrities still signals optimism for sustainable food production.Family collaborations are staying in the spotlight too. Jessica Biel's latest wine project Prophet and Poet with winemaker Jesse Katz celebrates the couple's creative passions and was originally crafted as a wedding gift from Timberlake and Biel according to 7x7 Bay Area. What began as a niche family label now includes over 900 cases and welcomes the public to enjoy their shared artistry.Speculation is swirling but Timberlake's own verified posts and actions suggest a man grappling candidly with personal health setbacks navigating public perception and paying tribute to his musical heroes while quietly investing in new ventures and supporting family collaborations. The headlines are as much about vulnerability as career resilience and the sheer volume of social and media attention reflects his continuing relevance and the ongoing fascination with both his public and private life.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

pWotD Episode 3087: D'Angelo Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 939,624 views on Tuesday, 14 October 2025 our article of the day is D'Angelo.Michael Eugene Archer (February 11, 1974 – October 14, 2025), better known by his stage name D'Angelo (), was an American R&B musician. Widely regarded as one of the most definitive neo-soul acts, Billboard named him one of the greatest R&B artists, while Rolling Stone magazine ranked him 75th on its list of the 200 Greatest Singers of All Time.He first garnered attention after co-writing and co-producing the 1994 single "U Will Know" by the R&B supergroup Black Men United. His debut studio album, Brown Sugar (1995), was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and received widespread acclaim from music critics, who have credited the album with ushering in the neo-soul movement. It featured the title track, the Smokey Robinson cover "Cruisin", and "Lady", which peaked within the top ten on the Billboard Hot 100.D'Angelo then collaborated with artists such as Angie Stone, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill, with whom he performed on the 1998 song "Nothing Even Matters". His next album, Voodoo (2000), debuted at number one on the U. S. Billboard 200 and received critical acclaim. Its lead single "Untitled (How Does It Feel)" was released alongside an impactful music video. The song earned him the Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance, while the album itself won Best R&B Album. Afterwards, D'Angelo became increasingly uncomfortable with his growing status as a sex symbol. He then had numerous personal struggles, including drug addiction and alcoholism, which resulted in limited musical output for several years. After over a decade spent mostly out of the public eye, he released his third and final studio album, Black Messiah (2014). The album debuted in the top five of the U. S. Billboard 200 and topped the year-end Pazz & Jop critics' poll by The Village Voice. It won Best R&B Album at the 58th Grammy Awards, while the single "Really Love" won Best R&B Song and was nominated for Record of the Year.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:48 UTC on Wednesday, 15 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see D'Angelo on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Joanna.

R&B and neo-soul icon D’Angelo, born Michael D’Angelo Archer, has died at the age of 51 following a prolonged and courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. His family confirmed his passing on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, describing him as the "shining star of our family" who has been called home. The cause of death has been confirmed as pancreatic cancer, a fact that was not publicly disclosed prior to his death. D’Angelo, a Grammy-winning artist, was a leading figure in the neo-soul movement of the 1990s, known for his innovative fusion of classic R&B, gospel, funk, and hip-hop influences. His debut album, Brown Sugar (1995), and his critically acclaimed follow-up, Voodoo (2000), solidified his legacy, featuring hits like "Brown Sugar," "Lady," and "Untitled (How Does It Feel)". The family expressed their heartbreak over his passing but expressed gratitude for the "legacy of extraordinarily moving music" he leaves behind and requested privacy during their time of mourning.

Wir verabschieden uns vom black messiah: Mit seinem Debütalbum "Brown Sugar" legte D'Angelo 1995 den Grundstein für das, was später als Neo-Soul gefeiert wurde – eine Rückführung des modernen R&B zu seinen Wurzeln, durchtränkt von Jazz, Gospel, Funk und Intimität. (superfly.fm)

"Welcome to another episode of Let There Be Talk. Today I'm diving deep into a few subjects that hit me hard this week — starting with one of the greatest films ever made, Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver. We'll get into the grit, the genius, and the madness of Travis Bickle, and how that movie still punches you in the gut almost 50 years later. After all these years what do you think happened to Travis. Then I'm switching gears into the world of metal — breaking down Metallica's “Disposable Heroes”, Is this their greatest song? And finally, I want to talk about the loss of D'Angelo, an artist who changed the game with soul, honesty, and groove. Brown Sugar is hands down one of the best records of the 90's   Thank you for always tuning in and remember to keep the Candles Lit.

Today we're remembering the Grammy-winning R&B and soul singer D'Angelo. The musician's family confirmed in a statement today that he died following a prolonged battle with cancer at age 51. Back in 2017, we did a deep dive on D'Angelo's 1995 debut album “Brown Sugar,” which some say marked the birth of the term "neo-soul." In tribute to D'Angelo, we dug deep into the “Q” archives to bring you this guide to “Brown Sugar” by music historian Jason King.

Label: Rolling Stones 19100Year: 1971Condition: MLast Price: $18.00. Not currently available for sale.This is one of the greatest of the Stones two-sided monster hits. Well, the B side didn't actually chart, but it's so great it really should have. Presumably, radio just wasn't ready to play a song called "Bitch" yet... though they were prepared by 1975 when Elton John hit the Top 10 with "The Bitch Is Back." OK, trivia time again... "Brown Sugar" was one of eight #1 U.S. singles by the Stones. The group also had eight chart-toppers in their native England, though over there they garnered all of those hits during the 1960s. Here is the list of the Stones' #1 U.S. singles: (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (1965) Get Off My Cloud (1965) Paint It, Black (1966) Ruby Tuesday (1967) Honky Tonk Women (1969) Brown Sugar (1971) Angie (1973), and Miss You (1978) For comparison's sake, here are their #1 U.K. hits. You'll notice that the group gained monster popularity about a year earlier than they did in the U.S., same as the Beatles. It's All Over Now (1964) Little Red Rooster (1964) The Last Time (1964) (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction (1965) Get Off My Cloud (1965) Paint It, Black (1966) Jumpin' Jack Flash (1968) Honky Tonk Women (1969) This is a second pressing with "Warner Communications" on the label. Note: This beautiful copy has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio).

We're exploring smash hits that became controversial over time, often reflecting shifting cultural sensitivities or due to the artists themselves growing to hate their own songs. Listen in as we unpack the reasons why chart-toppers like Pat Benatar's "Hit Me with Your Best Shot", The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar", Heart's "All I Want to Do Is Make Love to You", and The Who's "Pinball Wizard" have been dropped from live set lists.Plus, tune in for  a brand new segment: "Bad Band Breakups" with Todd Snyder!

Antonio Veneziani"Il tempio dell'anima"Il Simbolo EdizioniPubblichiamo la recensione di Giorgio Ghiotti, pubblicata su VallecchiPoesia.https://vallecchipoesia.it/content/antonio-veneziani-il-tempio-dellanima-il-simbolo-2025E' una nostizia da festeggiare ogni volta che esce un nuovo libro di un vero poeta, specialmente quando, come nel caso di Antonio Veneziani, sono passati anni dal suo ultimo lavoro. L'autore del memorabile esordio Brown Sugar del '79 ha affidato alle lodevoli edizioni Il Simbolo di Maurizio Gregorini il suo ritorno in volume con Il tempio dell'anima. Ritorno importante, atteso, per chi nel tempo ha seguito di Veneziani il percorso, fatto di fedeltà alla sua ispirazione, di coerenza e – tratto sempre più raro oggi – di assoluta libertà, difesa e pretesa anche a scapito di facili posizionamenti. Se nelle raccolte precedenti il poeta ci aveva abituati a scene di sollecito amore, di notturni incontri e esperienze del corpo, sempre restituendo nei suoi versi una città fantasmatica e miserabile non estranea a ingenti dosi di tenerezza e commozione, ne Il tempio dell'anima qualcosa è mutato. Verrebbe da dire che, smessi in parte i panni del flaneur urbano dedito alla perlustrazione di lungoteveri e interni domestici carichi di segreti (splendido esempio ne sono due raccolte precedenti: Tatuaggio profondo e Canzonette stradaiole), Antonio Veneziani recupera qui un paesaggio interiore mai pacificato – impossibile per chi, come lui, vive il mondo in percentuali altissime: “sono fuori posto, fuori luogo. / È pericoloso vivere” –, ma certamente accolto e compreso in un ragionare che non è mai stato tanto cristallino, serenamente inquieto, quasi direi metafisico. Veneziani non ha paura di parlare dalla vecchiaia, come chi ancora si indigna e s'innamora, magari di un gattino “sgarrupato” salvato dalla tempesta (“Troverò una tasca, / la inventerò se occorre”), ma forse per la prima volta si intrattiene a pensare anche ai cieli, a una divinità che, pur nella non consona e addomesticata forma delle religioni, sappia farsi – come scritto con ottima intuizione da Gregorini nella nota introduttiva – culla di un infinito cui la parola e quella poetica ancor di più anela. Poesie di grande temperatura emotiva si susseguono lungo le pagine, così che ogni testo, ricomposto all'interno del disegno d'insieme, vada a comporre una tessitura di irresistibile fascino, in grado di restituire non soltanto la storia di una poesia (e quella di Veneziani è una tra le migliori che abbiamo, suo merito e nostra fortuna), ma la storia di un'anima. Anima, ben inteso, che sa farsi biografia, anima mai slegata dalla materia reale della vita. Un'anima, quella di Veneziani, celeste e terrestre insieme. C'è una sapienza in questa raccolta che non appartiene a saggi e antichi dei; è la sapienza dei balocchi, degli autodidatti della vita, dei poeti. Antonio Veneziani non rivela dall'alto per meravigliare i lettori, ma prova meraviglia nel rivelarsi. Non consiglia, non indica, si tiene ben lontano da una poesia di precetto, perché si sente lui per primo in continuo rodaggio (e qui penso a Caproni che s'ammoniva: “resta ancora tutto da dimostrare”). Così le tre sezioni centrali dell'opera (Barbaglio di amor senile, Frammenti di diario e La storia si ripete) possono leggersi davvero come un consuntivo appassionato senza mai alcuna sbavatura di un'intera vita: Grazie della premura, grazie dei consigli.Ma voi, voi non siete nel vortice chemi attraversa, né dentro i tagliche mi procuro per tangere il sanguedel mio declino. Credetemi è raccapricciante,e c'è di più, scrivo preghiere nelle pietree poi, nell'opacità della notte, le buttonel fiume.  O ancora: La mia vitaè presto raccontata:anni vissuti a zonzo, droghe smodate,labbra troppo altere per divine invocazioni.Perso in meandri etilicivolevo assoggettare il cielo.Imbecille cancellavo calendariper depistare la morte. Orariottoso scanso i vecchi selciati.  Merito di questo lavoro editoriale, l'aver posto ad apertura e chiusura del libro il recupero di lavori oramai introvabili dell'autore: dalle poesie di A Gerusalemme e Talismani al poemetto Shalom, in cui si fanno i conti, senza che mai tornino appieno e sempre in affanno com'è giusto di un'anima in cammino, con le proprie radici ebraiche. Lo stile di Antonio Veneziani è unico nel panorama contemporaneo, irretisce e libera, apre ferite e le rimargina ma mai del tutto. C'è nella sua poesia, ancora una volta, un senso di insofferenza e di pietas, una postura etica e civile mai di posa, innata nell'occhio che, osservando e registrando il mondo da una posizione liminare, riattiva e colma un ripostiglio segreto che è in ciascuno di noi, facendoci ricordare la nostra riposta e forse dimenticata riserva di umanità. Di questo noi suoi affezionati lettori gli saremo grati a lungo. Mi si permetta di spendere ancora qualche riga per rimarcare il lavoro dell'editore Il Simbolo, che a poco più di un anno dalla sua nascita tanto sta facendo nella cura attenta e rigorosa delle sue uscite, tra le quali spicca un prezioso e imprescindibile volume delle poesie di Elsa De Giorgi (L'eternità nel gelo dell'alba). Una casa editrice che intenda primariamente il lavoro editoriale come lavoro culturale non è poca cosa, oggi. Nel cuore di Roma, là dove un'altra benemerita casa editrice, Empirìa, è andata dagli anni Ottanta promuovendo una vera cultura poetica (e tanto questa nuova esperienza ricorda, per valore, quella di via Baccina), Il Simbolo è una piccola roccaforte di bellezza, a partire dall'eleganza delle copertine, e di coraggio.   Antonio Veneziani, Maria Concetta Borgese"Piedi nudi e parole crude"Edizioni MedartLa parola è quella di Antonio Veneziani, poeta vibrante capace di trasformare in poesia ogni pensiero, ogni piccola azione, meditazione, ricordo.Parte dalla parola, ma si trasforma in danza e in musica e in un significato che amplia il respiro della poesia e diventa un'unica zolla; una terra splendente e feconda.“Ballerina, sii gentile, svelaci i segreti del ruscello;mostra, insieme all'erba alta, i muscoli della brezza.Vorrei andarmene ma mani di seta mi trattengono.Ero ladro e assassino, un tempo, ora son sasso.”Dialoga con la danzatrice, il poeta. Dialoga sapendo di trovare risposte. Anche lontane e indecifrabili, ma tènere e capaci di tenere a bada l'inquietudine.Scritte per Maria Concetta Borgese, che le coreografa e le interpreta, queste poesie aiutano il percorso di noi umani.

Welcome to Jay Dilla La vita, la musica, i beat, il calore di J Dilla, producer di Detroit considerato il Miles Davis della produzione in quattro quarti. Innovatore nei modo di comporre i beat e di tagliare i campioni, a lui si deve la nascita del genere nu-soul a fine anni 90 e una forte influenza sulle ritmiche squantizzate in quattro quarti che hanno influenzato la musica black tutta, dall`hiphop al jazz. James Yancey è purtroppo scomparso nel 2006 a causa di una rara malattia renale. Rest in Peace JD, nel mese a te dedicato, febbraio, tanti auguri per i tuoi 50 anni.

BOSSes, get ready for an electrifying conversation with a true entertainment icon. In this episode of the VO Boss Podcast, Anne Ganguzza is joined by the legendary Rolonda Watts, an Emmy-winning, talk show host, actress, and award-winning voice actor. Rolonda's career is a masterclass in professional reinvention. From her groundbreaking syndicated talk show, The Rolonda Show, to her powerful voice acting work on Professor Wiseman in Curious George and her on-screen roles in Mind Your Business and Survival of the Thickest, she embodies the art of pivoting with purpose. The hosts discuss how her journey from journalism to entertainment shaped her, why listening is the most important tool for any communicator, and the life philosophies that have guided her to become a true BOSS.   00:01 - Anne (Host) Hey, bosses, Anne Ganguzza, you know your journey in voiceover is not just about landing gigs. It's about growing both personally and professionally. At Anne Ganguzza Voice Productions, I focus on coaching and demo production that nurtures your voice and your confidence. Let's grow together. Visit Anneganguzza.com to find out more. 00:48 Visit anganguza, hey. Hey everyone, welcome to the VO Boss Podcast. I'mGanguzzayour host, Anne Ganguza, and I have something amazing for you 00:53 , bosses, today.  00:55 Today's guest is a one-woman entertainmentRolondaempire. She's done it all award-winning journalistRolonda daytime talk show host, actor, stand-up comic, best-selling author and one of the most recognizable voices in voiceover. You may have heard her as Professor Wiseman on Curious GeorgeRolonda in the Proud FamilyRolonda kung Fu Panda and now Invincible Fight Girl. She's also the annoucer and promo voice of the Sherry Show, where Sherry Shepard calls her a daytime talk show legend, which I happen to agree. Rolanda Watts is currently lighting up the screen on Bounce TV's hit comedy Mind your Business which I always get to see all the shorts on the Facebook feed, by the way where she plays Lucille, the sharp, sassy family matriarch that keeps it real with tough love and somehow I feel like that just echoes your character to a T. And she I feel like that just echoes your character to a T, and she's also appearing in the upcoming season of Netflix's Survival ofRolondathe Thickest, and was recently inducted into the prestigious Silver Circle by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences at the 2024 Emmys, recognizing her lifetime of groundbreaking work in television.  02:04 Bosses, please welcome the incomparable Rolanda Watts, thank you. Thank you, rolanda. I have to tell you, you know I'm a big fan. I mean, I've said this to you before, but, bosses, I am the biggest fan of Rolanda. I actually know Rolanda from watching her on daytime talk TV, and that was a while ago. I want to say that daytime talk shows had just kind of come into like being, and you're one of the first that I watched and I just I just you, your personality, just everything about you was just amazing. It's just magnetic, and so I am so excited to be able to interview you, a talk show host. So I was like, oh man, how am I going to prepare to talk to you? But you are just so gracious and wonderful, and so that kind of gave me a little bit of of hope that I wouldn't completely flub it up today, rolanda.  03:05 - Rolonda (Guest) I don't think you would do that, Anne.  03:08 - Anne (Host) My goodness. So for the bosses, who you know don't really know your story and how you started off, I mean, my gosh, you're a media empire, so I don't even like we could have like five days worth of interviews with you, but it all started as broadcast journalism correct interviews with you, but it all started as broadcast journalism correct?  03:28 - Rolonda (Guest) Yes, Tell us about that. Well, I grew up in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and I, you know, I went to well, it's a long story about how I became an actor, but it all started with being 12 years old and going to Broadway with my family and seeing Guys and Doll and I was just like, oh my God, I love the stage and that's what I Anne do. So I went to Spelman and majored in theater arts and then there weren't a lot of roles when I got out of college. There just wasn't a track for folks who looked like me in the acting world, and so I fell in love with journalism, went to Columbia's Graduate School of Journalism and I was a news reporter and investigative anchor woman and producer for many years for New York WABC, WNBC Inside.  04:16 - Anne (Host) Edition, and that's impressive. And all of a sudden. Well, yeah, I was an investigative journalist. I mean you just said it like it came so easy. But I Anne imagine at the time. I mean you must have had to really work to get yourself in that space.  04:33 - Rolonda (Guest) Well, it was a crazy time because it was the 1980s. There weren't a lot of women in investigative news reporting, not in New York City, and so it was a groundbreaking time for women and and there was so much in the news, especially in New York, it was the big gang wars, the mob wars. You know, gotti hadn't even come into into play yet, so it was murder and mayhem. I was covering, wow and yeah, an inside edition. I was more murder and mayhem.  05:04 - Anne (Host) I remember that.  05:06 - Rolonda (Guest) Yeah. And then a man by the name of Roger King, who in heaven remains the number one selling as human being in television, asked me if I would like to do my very own syndicated talk show. So for four years I did the Rolanda show and then, when that was over let's loop back to the 12 year old who wore the subway token around her neck as a good luck charm. I said I'm not going to be on a porch when I'm 80 years old, going I could have, would have, should have. I am going to take my chances and go for my lifelong dream and make that 12 year old inside of me happy.  05:41 And I took off and went to Hollywood and that's where I became an actor and a writer and a producer and had my own production company and stumbled into voice acting and all of these things were part of what so many people call me the reinventionist. But I have had to reinvent my life for so many reasons and so many times. But I believe that isRolondamany different things that I've done and it's all around one thing and that's what we do as voice actors Good storytelling.  06:13 - Anne (Host) Yeah, absolutely Absolutely. And it's so interesting because before I had really come into like knowing you again, after you know, watching your talk show, and then knowing you as in voiceover yeah, the Anne and promo voice of the Sherry show, how interesting. Like you started to talk show, you're like a legend and talk show in my, in my brain. I'm like Rolanda, that's so awesome, like you. And now you kind of came full circle back to it a little bit Right, being the Anne and the promo voice.  06:46 And I was watching a clip of you the other day and Sherry was saying something. She was going on. She was gushing about you, which I get that. She was gushing about you and it was so interesting. She was giving you this credit about talking about your talk show and how wonderful you were and you turned it right. The conversation went right back to her about how wonderful she was and I was just blown away by how gracious that was and I just thought, well, no wonder. Well, no wonder you made such a great talk show host, such a great communicator, such a great actor and stand-up comedian and everything, because you just have this wonderful way of connecting with people.  07:29 - Rolonda (Guest) Well, you're awfully sweet, Anne. I'm going to receive all of that, but I thank you for that. You know it's, it's it. I, you know I was. I get blown away too, because Sherry does not hold back about what. What do the folks say? Giving me my flowers? And it's nice to receive them when you can smell them. You know, you know, know, it's really interesting because we did pave the way for sherry and and kelly and and drew and tamron all of them and I also know the hard work that those ladies are doing.  08:04 This job called talk is not easy. The politics that go on, the struggles day to day, the whole idea that the show is bigger than you as a human. It's very trying and you're out there by yourself. So I of course give her her flowers back because you can hand over the baton, but if the person can't run with it it really doesn't count. So to be able to see that continuum is a beautiful, beautiful thing.  08:29 And you know what's really funny is that Sherry's executive producer, who you see on the show all the time, John Murray. John was a college student when he first came to see my show and that's when he got the TV bug. He was bitten by the TV bug and so I would invite him back. In fact, one time I put him on the show so he could come and see how the producers worked and the behind the scenes working Skip to him becoming the executive producer of the Sherry show, and he said there's no other voice that we would have introduced, Sherry, and pass on the legacy than you. So it's really good. I mean, you got to be nice to kids, because they're coming up and they'll be your boss.  09:10 - Anne (Host) Right. Isn't that the truth?  09:12 - Rolonda (Guest) It is, it's like full circle.  09:13 - Anne (Host) You've, really you've done so much and you are.  09:15 I feel as though you've got. I feel like, look, I know how busy I am and I do a lot of stuff, but I feel like you, you're, you're doing it all. I mean you're, you're in that sitcom and I see, I'm thankful. I see the clips that you're posting on Facebook and it's so funny how the Rolanda that I know right, that I had a conversation with at VO Atlanta, I mean I feel like it is just so true to your character. Tell us a little bit about that role. I feel like you're just having the best time doing it.  09:44 - Rolonda (Guest) Oh my God, Lucille Williams, or Lucille is just one of the most wonderful characters. I mean, she's just great. And this coming weekend she's going to break off into her cougarlicious life, I know, oh wow.  10:05 She and her besties. They call themselves the silver sneakers. The nieces have convinced them that they need to give up the old guys, who just need a nurse and a purse, and go and get some of the young guys to go get some cool you know, be cougars and so we see how that works. But it's very, you know, it's fun to play her. She's sassy, she's the matriarch of the family, but at the same time we're writing storylines that give her a full bodied woman-ness. At this certain age, absolutely, absolutely.  10:42 - Anne (Host) I love that.  10:43 - Rolonda (Guest) But Mind your Business is a wonderful sitcom. It's one of those wonderful family sitcoms. It's produced by Bentley Evans, who did Jamie Foxx and Martin, so you're going to get that kind of zany funniness, but it's. But my character is lost her business almost during covid and calls on her family to come in and help save the business. And so she moves in with the family to save some money and all hell breaks loose. They need more of a referee than they do business partners. Now.  11:14 - Anne (Host) I love it. Now, if I'm correct, you're on season two, is that correct?  11:20 - Rolonda (Guest) We're on season two. That's right.  11:22 - Anne (Host) That's right Will there be more seasons. We certainly hope so. I hope so too.  11:25 - Rolonda (Guest) Listen, we're depending on you to watch and binge and love it. We're on Bounce TV or the Brown Sugar app and you Love it.  11:32 - Anne (Host) We're on Bounce TV or the Brown Sugar app and you can go look up where you can watch it. Yeah, I love that. Well, ok, so All right, we have to. Now we have to come to the voiceover aspect of things. So you actually have been doing voiceover since you came to LA, right?  11:46 - Rolonda (Guest) And well, you know what's so crazy, Anne, is that I was doing voiceover work, promos and Anne and voiceovers, and I didn't even know I was a voice actor, because I was doing all of that stuff for my show. I mean, had I known I was a voice actor at that time, I would have had a very different contract, trust me. But but it let meRolonda you know. But, just being a news reporter for so many years in New York City and on Inside Edition across the nation, people just knew my voice. And when, when I moved to LA and gave up the whole news and talk business to come out here and be an actor and a producer, nine months into the game the writers went on strike and instead of hosting an internationally syndicated talk show, I was on the picket line serving pizza to the striking writers.  12:39 And I was like what am I going to do? And I had to eat, I had to pay my rent, I mean what, what? And it was like I'm not going back to news, so what am I going to do? And I remembered that I used to call 411 back when you used to get information and the operator even knew my voice. They would go is this Rolanda. And so I said well this, I know I've got a voice, I'll go do voice acting. And I could not catch a cold because I didn't understand what the business was about. I had a voice and I had a microphone, but I had no idea what voice acting was about. I had a voice and I had a microphone, but I had no idea what voice acting was about.  13:14 So I went over to Calumson and Calumson over there in Burbank and I took a class and that thing saved my life because those that was the one of the that was the well, it was one of the longest strikes in Hollywood nine months and by that time I had created a whole new career and the voice actors weren't on strike. So I said this is a great backup for my physical acting and there are times and when my voice works more than my physical acting and now that I'm becoming a woman of a certain age those roles aren't coming in as quickly. But, honey, I can play a hot 30 year old.  13:53 - Anne (Host) Well, my voice. I love that you're using the woman of a certain age because, as a woman of a certain age, as well, what are you?  14:02 - Rolonda (Guest) going to do.  14:04 - Anne (Host) Exactly. I mean, I say use it Right, I mean absolutely. And so let's talk just for a brief moment about what. So acting and voice acting, same, different, what? What would you say are the key differences? Because you said, oh, I had to go to Kalmanson and Kalmanson, right.  14:22 - Rolonda (Guest) So there are some things, yeah, oh, absolutely.  14:25 - Anne (Host) Bosses need to know that are different and I absolutely always tell people yes, you should, you should, you know, take acting classes. But also there are some, some differences.  14:35 - Rolonda (Guest) Yeah, I find that there there's. It's just a different set of muscles, I think that's what you would say. One is just strictly your imagination and I think, well, for me, one helps the other. Well, for instance, the character I play we talked about Lucille, lucille talks like this she's got a little quiver in her voice and she just real high pitch, like that. So some of those tricks that we learn in terms of texture and pitch and pacing and all of that that we do as we imagine our characters, I do the same thing when I see the character on the page and I say how does that voice, what? What is it about her voice that's going to make her stand out. And they know that's Lucille, that's part of her, because she doesn't have cause. That character doesn't have this voice, not my voice. So I think that that that helps me find my characters In fact.  15:29 In fact I did a play and I had I did three plays at one time. Craziest thing in the world never been done Did three plays at one time, playing 10 different characters, from a nine-year-old girl to a 76-year-old grandmother, and all of those are different voices. You know, one was a journalist, one was a, you know, grandmother one, a, a little girl who grew up in mississippi. I mean, those are just such different voices and I also have bring my physical things, like when I'm thinking of a character in my voice, acting. I think what would they wear?  16:04 Shakespeare said, the clothes make the man and the woman too. Are they wearing a cape that they sold over there, you know? Are they carrying a sword? Does she have really tight bobs in her hair? I mean, does she have a mustache? So there are all kinds of things that I think. If I'm in my prop room or my wardrobe room and it's just my imagination, what can I do to help bring those things to light? Just the way, when they put the wig on and the clothes and the heels on for stage or screen, you could become that character. You do the same in your imagination, yeah.  16:37 - Anne (Host) I love that, I love that parallel.  16:40 That makes so much sense, actually, and it's interesting. So, for voice actors, who have not necessarily acted, what sort of tips would you have to for them to be better actors? Let's say, because it's funny, I do a lot of the stuff that people don't think you need to act for in terms of voiceover, like corporate narration or e-learning, and they think that you don't need to act. But in reality you're always a character, and so when I'll say to my students, envision that scene, it's just to them they're like what, why? Why do I need to do that? Why don't I just read the words? You know why?  17:20 - Speaker 3 (Announcement) I hear it. Yeah, exactly, you know why?  17:22 - Rolonda (Guest) Because we're not looking for readers, we're looking for actors, and I think that's one of the biggest mistakes that folks make who don't become a VO boss is because they don't understand what this industry is about. It's really not even about your voice. It's not about I mean, everybody has a beautiful, unique voice, because there are no two voices alike but it's the acting that's going to make you so different. It's those subliminal things under those lines. Sometimes you have a whole commercial that tells a whole life story in four lines and they, they fought over those lines. Attorneys, 50 people made all those lines. So they mean something. What is the story we're telling here? Right, and who am I in this story and who am I talking to? You know all of those questions. Where am I? Why am I even this story and who am I talking to? You know all of those questions. Where am I? Why am I even talking about this toilet paper? You know, and I'm a bear.  18:21 Why am I. Even I'm a mama bear. I mean why? You know why am I, and I'm not going to act like a bear, but I'm going to act like a mom who's concerned about her kids not wiping themselves. And that's just real stuff. So how do you tap into the authenticity? How do you make it human? Because what our job is is to connect with another human being. That's something that folks down there on Madison Avenue, the big advertisers, can't do in their suits, so they depend on us as actors, to be human, to be just plain old ourselves and human. No bravado, as we're hearing so much in our copy and in our instruction and directions as actors. Authenticity, throw it away, just give it to me. No salesy, no Anne, and I got to tell you that's the hardest thing in the world to do. Even for us seasoned actors, it's sometimes hard to shake off the the, the formality and just get real with it. You know and feel comfortable and confident with that.  19:21 - Anne (Host) Can I ask you to repeat that, can you that you said, you said what you said. It was hard, it's hard, it is hard, right. It is so hard Like I love it because you create that scene Right. It is so hard, like I love it because you create that scene Right In which those words make sense, right.  19:36 And tell a story and sometimes those words are really we don't know. We don't know that, Like I, have some people that are almost indignant that they don't have a storyboard or they don't. They don't understand the words. So therefore, if they don't, they're just kind of well, let's just say them then.  19:58 - Rolonda (Guest) Right In a melody that I think they want to hear. Rolonda, that's great, then they'll have a melody that they just heard, but they won't have the commercial.  20:03 - Anne (Host) I love it, so yes, so you said it's hard, rolanda says it's hard, it is.  20:09 - Rolonda (Guest) I go on record as saying the hardest thing I've ever had to do whether it was talk, tv or vocal or physical acting is being myself. Now in life, I have no problem beingRolondaauthentically Rolanda. What you see is Rolonda you get. But it's something that happens when we pick up that script and that microphone is in front of us and, all of a sudden, things start changing and happening. We're just not ourselves. I don't sound like myself. I don't like toRolondahear my voice. It takes, it's really acting. When you hear people who sound like how did they get that job? They don't even sound like a voice actor. It's because they are turning themselves Rolonda a virtual pretzel justRolondato sound like that, to sound so normal.  20:58 I remember when I first started doing my talk show um, the, the demand of being a, an actor I mean not an actor, but a talk show host with a talk show called rolanda was that you had to be Rolanda. You couldn't be the news reporter anymore. That was crucial to the success, and so it was very hard to even do it then, and I can remember my bosses and my partners calling going get that news reporter out of there, bring back Rolanda. And I said but I've got this crazy laugh and a raspy voice and I, you know, I'm a Southern accent and that's everything that makes my brand. I mean, it's crazy, but that's Rolanda. When you say Rolanda, that's what you hear. So whatever that is about you, whatever that quirky, crazy thing that you think is your fault, that's going to be your greatest asset. You know, when I was a little kid, they called me froggy and I always played all the guys in all my all girls school plays and I thought that was a real fault of mine. And now I can play women, men, little boys, pirates, anything in this industry of voice acting, and there's no limitation. The only limitation is your imagination. It's not about the equipment, it's not even about your voice. It's about your brilliant imagination and what you bring to that character, not even the microphone, what you bring to that character that nobody else thought about. That made that animator go. Oh, I can't wait to draw this character, um, and to make the casting director's job easy. They want you to win, they want you to get this job, so give it to them, show them your special sauce.  22:43 But I think it takes real practice, practice, practice. Like carnegie hall, they say. You just don't walk up into carnegie hall and start playing the violin. No, you got to learn how the instrument works. You got to learn how to maintain it, take care of it, how to make love to that instrument so it delivers that God given art and craft that you've put into it. You've got to do the work. And a lot of people think, well, I can just go pick this up and read. And the sad thing is, and they don't take classes and they have no idea what they're doing wrong. The worst thing that can happen is you go years and years and years building on the wrong stuff because you never took the time to learn the right stuff. You don't know what you don't know. Yeah, that's so.  23:29 - Anne (Host) I'm.  23:29 - Rolonda (Guest) I'm real big on training and classes so that you get the education and the acting experience and you understand how to break down scripts, you understand the vocabulary of this industry and how to network and and and use your resources that are right there at your fingertips.  23:46 - Anne (Host) Well, I think I think you're probably very much a VO Boss on using those resources and networking throughout your whole career. That's absolutely something that I feel that you've you've done so successfully. What would you say is probably the most important thing tip that you could give to to ensure success in this industry? Because it's a evolving industry and, yes, being the the queen of reinvention, right, you've had to reinvent yourself, and reinvent yourself not only in, you know, voiceover, but in, like all the media and how it's evolved over the years. So what would be your, your best tip to ensure success? Don't quit there. You go.  24:26 - Rolonda (Guest) I like that. The only people who don't succeed in voice acting are people who quit. I like that. You know, even the greatest ones. And you know, when we're at the VO Atlanta conference and we're with the greats I mean we're with Bob, who's Porky the pig, and we're with Joe, who's every network's Anne and when you hear these, these, these major vo stars and pros say, man, I do 50 to 100 auditions and may not nab the job a lot of us went whoa.  24:59 - Anne (Host) thank god, it's just not us, because yeah, I mean I can show you a stack in my head. I'm like oh, thank god, because, yeah, I, I just did a ton, I know, yeah, and look, listen I hear some auditions from this month okay yeah, am, I, am, I am I booking every one of them?  25:16 - Rolonda (Guest) no, but that's but. But you have to change your mindset. Every time I show up that microphone and I'm doing an audition, I'm not going up there. Well, I'm not going to get the job anyway. If you've got a bad attitude like that, it's time for you to jump into a classroom and just realign yourself, because this is a long game. And let me tell you what's going to happen when you get great you nab that job, you go and do that commercial. One hour it's gone and you're right back to auditioning again. So don't put all of your emphasis on just the job, but the but, the practice, the maintenance of it. Uh, going to conferences like the VO Atlanta conference, vo Dallas conference, sosa look up these places. That's a good place to hobnob. This is a very solo business. You're a solopreneur, you're by yourself, you, your microphone, your computer and your imagination. That's it. So get out and join memberships. Like Anne. You can come and take my class, the voice acting masterclass with Rolanda. In fact, I'm going to offer your listeners a very special deal if they're interested.  26:29 But that's another way that we build community and you learn what's the cutting edge. Right now we're dealing with AI. What does that mean? Staying on the cutting edge of things that are going to affect your career and really take it as a business. This is not just a hobby. Understand how your taxes work, understand the legalities and understand the questions to ask when you're signing a contract. Now just don't run out there all willy-nilly and not ask the right questions or your voice will be used forever and you not get paid. You know the video game people just had a strike and got some. Where are we moving forward in the business?  27:10 Be able to talk intelligently about the business. So when you're out there meeting people, they know, oh okay, this is somebody really serious. This isn't just somebody who just got a microphone on amazon and call themselves a voice actor, because there's a lot of that. But I say that um, really, just don't quit and understand that every time you show up in front of that microphone, it's another opportunity to show you a special sauce. And if the casting director doesn't get you into this particular job and that's not their decision, it's the producer's or whoever the client is. If you don't make it then, then at least they've heard you. I get a lot of times where they're. Rolonda same client will keep calling me back and I know I've impressed them in those other auditions I've done, so I know they're looking for something for me, so I just keep showing up, doing the best that I possibly can and finding ways to make it different. Because they've heard the same audition 50 million times, sometimes 500 times.  28:12 So what can you do to make it a little different and still stay within the parameters? So there's Ganguzza kinds of tricks and strategies and all kinds of things that you can do to stand Ganguzza and also how you market yourself like anything else. This is a brand Just because Rolonda have a microphone. Anything else this is a brand. Just because you have a microphone doesn't mean you have a brand. So reallyRolonda you know, that's one of the things I tell my students all the time. Once you get the breaking down the script and understand how the microphone and the vocab let's, let's talk about marketing, social marketing. How do we brand ourselves? How can you be one name like Rolanda and people immediately know what that means, and so that's really knowing your stuff and knowing your own voice too, that's so interesting because for a while, when I first started, I had different names.  29:00 - Anne (Host) I mean I, of course I started VO Peeps, I have VO Boss, and then I have Anne Ganguza brand and I'm like I really just need to wrap it all up into the Anne Ganguza brand. So finally, people say I need an Anne Ganguza, like I need a Rolanda. I need an Anne Ganguza, and so I love that that you have that brand and you build on that brand. But, rolanda, let me ask you a question, because I saw the stack of auditions. Do you I mean still, do you get, still I say still do you get an imposter syndrome?  29:31 - Rolonda (Guest) I think I'm pretty much. I'm pretty much at this time in my life. I know who I am. You know I'm not trying to. I've done enough and achieved enough and have enough confidence in myself. I think you know what I think this is. The other thing about this industry is confidence, because you can hear I can hear through a microphone. If you're not confident and you don't even believe yourself, if you see it, I'm going to see it. If you believe it, I'm going to believe it. And that's half the battle, I mean, and that's also part of the practice of this art and this craft, is learning how to still your nerves. Breathing is so much a part, warming up is so much a part of it and it's a full body job. This is an inside job because your beautiful vocal cords are right here in this body encases it. So you got to work out, you got to stretch. You know I love this. Old morgan freeman used to say that the secret to his great voice was a good, deep yawn.  30:29 Absolutely, you know because it just loosens up everything and these 41 muscles up here need to be worked out. A lot of people just jump right up, start reading, don't even warm up their mouths.  30:40 - Anne (Host) As evidenced by your. I think it was yesterday when I saw you on Facebook and you were like all right, I'm going back to the gym.  30:48 - Rolonda (Guest) I know. I messed up.  30:50 - Anne (Host) That's it. I'm going back.  30:54 - Rolonda (Guest) I'm a hot mess but.  30:56 - Anne (Host) I think that warming up I mean it helps, it absolutely does. Just a physical walk, you know, if you go to the gym, a physical warmup does absolutely help. Now, we did talk, we touched upon the confidence issue. We did talk, we touched upon the confidence issue, and one thing that I'm really excited about is that in let's see, is it in September, on the 17th, we are going to have you doing a guest directorship for the VO bosses on improv to improve your confidence and connection. So we will be talking about how bosses can remain confident or stay confident or get confident in the booth, and I love that.  31:35 You said that we can hear. We can hear that confidence and it's really interesting because even if you're telling a story and it may not be the story that ends up being on the video or the commercial right or the commercial right If we're auditioning and we're telling a story and we're convinced of it and we are confident in it, then the people listening, the casting directors, the people that will cast us, will believe it as well, and I think that's one of the telltale signs that they say, ah, shortlist, or that's what's gonna get you the gig.  32:05 - Rolonda (Guest) I think confidence and that's really believing in yourself and being able to take chances and risks. Because you know, think about it. The casting director is hearing 500 people say the same three lines. What are you going to bring to that story that's going to make a difference? I'll give you an example.  32:23 I did an at t commercial and it was about it. It was a very little short commercial and it was about a young girl who sees her mother, who has gone out for girls night at a salsa club, and she says mom, is this you on social media? And the mother goes oh, yes, honey, we were out with Raul last night and we were just dancing and then I something happened. And I said and I just to world. That was not even a line in the script, but I just had this imagination, cuz I used to go out salsa with my girlfriends in California and, honey, when Eduardo would ask us to dance, we would to world. And that just brought that into that like an aunt Lucille, and that's what got me the gig. And it was, and it was just that little button that we say, you know, because they've heard 500 times that people say the same thing yes, I went salsaing with my girlfriend, but nobody twirled but me, nobody's.  33:26 - Anne (Host) nobody else is twirling except for Rolanda. Nobody else is.  33:29 - Rolonda (Guest) honey, that's how much fun I had, which lets you know what that video must have looked like, that the girl saw.  33:36 Absolutely, absolutely, and listen and the fact that these old ladies were even on social media, lets, you know, those boys were young. They taught him how to tick and tock and twirl, you know. So I'm having a whole imaginative thing about going out with my girlfriends and then my girlfriend, my daughter, catching me. Oh please, child, we had a good time. You know, we don't care about what people think at this age. So bringing all of those things, even my own wisdom at this age, like I don't care, honey, I'm twirling with Eduardo because the guys my age don't twirl, so I'm bringing all of that fun into it, you know.  34:11 Another example was when I did judge Joe Brown. You know I was the Anne for that show and when I was doing the audition we had to, you know, was a promo, so I would have to read the line and then listen to the sound bite and then read the line in between. And listen to the sound bite, read, read the line. And I was so big. Judge Joe was such a crazy, freaking judge show. I would say, coming up today on Judge Joe, I'm going to slit your tire and I'm going to beat Shaniqua Mary can't stand, john and then I'm going to cut your other tire and then I would be.  34:46 And then one time I just went, whoa, the next Judge, joe. Honey, they fell on the floor. I was so busy listening that I was reacting like an at home person and I was like, ooh, on the next Joe. I was so irreverent that they created a little animation called lady justice and it was a little bug and I made up this whole story that lady justice was in love with joe just like the daytime audience was gone. Joe, tell them, joe, that's judge, joe, you know because I know the daytime audience. Yeah, so that's the other question we asked who are you talking to?  35:30 - Speaker 3 (Announcement) absolutely, this wasn't the inside edition audience. This. Don't be afraid to take that risk.  35:53 - Rolonda (Guest) You can do a straight one on the next Judge. Joe and Shanique was going to go, but honey, one time let it rip and show them that you can have fun. Fun is the main key. If it's not fun, don't do it.  36:05 - Anne (Host) Yeah, I agree, I think if you can make, if you can make someone laugh, if you can, if you can, if you can bring a smile to that casting director, that person listening to you, oh my goodness. And speaking of because normally I try to make this, you know, a 30 minute podcast, but I do want to touch upon. I do want to touch upon the fact that you are a stand up comedian as well, and we had quite a conversation at VO Atlanta on that, and so I feel like that's just all embedded in your personality and I think you were always a funny person, like from maybe a young girl. But talk to us about being at stand up comedy is tough.  36:41 - Rolonda (Guest) Oh, it's really tough.  36:42 - Anne (Host) But you know something that's a rough audience.  36:45 - Rolonda (Guest) Know your audience. Who are you talking to? That's true. And you know something Lunell taught me that she said know your audience, be able to switch on a dime, whatever. But I'm going to tell you just, VO bosses, that comedy helps immensely. It helps your timing, you know. So much of comedy comes in threes. So when you're doing animation or even some fun commercials, what's that third line where the funny ABC?  37:10 - Anne (Host) read right Where's that?  37:11 - Rolonda (Guest) Where's that? Third line where the funny? Or they want an ABC. Read Right, where's that? Where's that? Where's the funny? And that also gives you the confidence and the imagination and and I tell you funny, joan Rivers told Sherri Shepherd funny girls always work, funny women, funny girls always work, funny women, funny women always work. So adding a little humor to something I think makes you stand out. But I love the craft of comedy. I'm uh got uh some comedy shows here in New York at the comedy village comedy in Harlem, and then I'm going to go out to flappers in LA this winter December for the holidays and I'm opening for Lunell and that's really exciting so yeah, I'm getting my comedy on Awesome.  37:58 - Anne (Host) Look out for me on Netflix one day. I do not doubt it. Well, rolanda, it has been such a pleasure. I wish I could talk to you for another. Well, another five episodes.  38:07 - Rolonda (Guest) Oh, wait a minute. Wait a minute Speaking of Netflix. I got to do this and we're talking about Michelle Boutot's show survival of the thickest.  38:15 - Anne (Host) I'm on that one as well on Netflix. Awesome. Oh, and before and before we actually go, talk to us a little bit about September 17th improv to improve your confidence. A little bit about what we're going to, we're going to be diving into in that class.  38:30 - Rolonda (Guest) Oh, I can't wait to that class because improv is such a great way to gain your confidence, to loosen up and to have a whole bunch of fun. The beautiful thing about improv is there are certain rules that we go by, but it's just fun and it's going to help you tap into your authenticity. One good example we improv every day in life. You talk to your lover very different than you do to your boss, and don't let your best girlfriend call you in the middle of the day, and then, when your mother calls, listen to all the different voices that we have, and that's a lot of improv too. Improv also helps you listen and much of acting is about listening and I think you will surprise yourself, and part of the improv to improve your confidence is finding your own voice and discovering things through this exercise about your own experiences and about your being able to to react on a dime and have fun and laugh about it. Then when you you get those scripts, you can improv in your head.  39:32 I always do a little role play before I start, something Like if I have to play an old grandma, then I talk like an old grandma. Okay, I spin and rush them out. Our teeth don't fit too well. You got a little pain in the rats every once in a while. So you keep building these wonderful things that help you. Listen, you may not get that job, but you know you're going to doggone. Put in the effort because you've done the work. You know you. You will be so surprised, all the places that your voice will take you. And improv too. I mean there are times you're going to meet strangers, a new boss, and going to have to improv too. I mean there are times you're going to meet strangers, a new boss and going to have to improv too.  40:13 So improv is going to be a fun exercise for us. We're going to then take scripts, break down those scripts and do some acting. I'm going to teach you about Uta Hagen's nine questions. We're going to talk a little bit, a bit about Sandy Meisner's techniques, and these are just little things that you can put in your hip pocket that will help you. When you go out into the world and you're in that booth by yourself and you look to the right and the left and there's nobody there but padded walls, what are you going to do? You're not going to freak out, because we're going to learn about warmups and what we do with all this body when we're nervous and behind a microphone, because I can hear nervousness, I can hear it. So let's uh, let's work on that rolanda, did you hear my nerves?  40:57 - Anne (Host) did you hear my nerves when I was interviewing you are so not nervous listen, you need to make it easy.  41:05 - Rolonda (Guest) You've got the ganguza method, that's it there you my own method. I want to be gangouza'd. I love it.  41:12 - Speaker 3 (Announcement) I love it oh my gosh.  41:14 - Anne (Host) Thank you so so much. It has been such a pleasure talking to you today.  41:19 - Rolonda (Guest) You know how much fun we have. We get together and start talking and the sun can come up.  41:23 - Anne (Host) So true, so true.  41:23 - Rolonda (Guest) Thank you, thank you so much.  41:25 - Anne (Host) I so true, thank you.

Kelly and Lizz are striving to be more positive on the pod this week, but first Lizz needs to talk a little about the giant zit on her head. On the other end of the spectrum, Kelly is getting super excited for Thanksgiving and their dads Lemon Drop Martinis. Speaking of the holidays, which is better - the lead up to Christmas or Christmas day itself?  Kelly has some advice for moms this week, do that little thing you want to do but think you don't have time for. Want to make the viral brown sugar pop-tart? Do it!
