WITCH, PLEASE! Get ready for a bumper episode of the podcast! So make yourself comfortable on your broom, as we are joined in the Reign studio by one of my favourite guests ever and one of the greatest performers of all time, Cynthia Erivo.  In case you've been M.I.A. in OZ visiting the Wizard or something and missed it, Cynthia stars as Elphaba in the movie adaptation of the mega musical hit, ‘Wicked', alongside Ariana Grande, who plays Glinda, and Jonathan Bailey, who aptly plays Prince Charming himself, Fiyero.  This isn't Cynthia's first dalliance with musicals. After starting out on the West End Cynthia went on to win a Tony, Emmy and Grammy award for her performance in ‘The Colour Purple' and was nominated twice at the Oscars for her performance in ‘Harriet' playing the racial freedom fighter, Harriet Tubman, and for the original song ‘Stand Up'. There is a reason Cynthia is only an O away from being an EGOT, but she's not just an incredible performer, she is an incredible conversationalist, too.  We cover SO much in this episode! We talk about Cynthia's ‘Wicked' journey - from auditioning to singing ‘Defying Gravity' for the first time on set, the life lessons she's learnt from Oprah and Ariana Grande, feeling like an outsider, how she *almost* became a spinal surgeon, and how her next role in life might take her off to Havard to study. Is there ANYTHING Cynthia can't do?  I loved sharing this incredible conversation with Cynthia, but it's the bits about embracing queer identity and the power of dreaming big that really made me tear up.  I hope this episode inspires you to defy gravity and dream big, and if you love it please get in touch, as I would love to talk to you about all the themes and just how incredible ‘Wicked' is, too. You can find me across socials @joshsmithhhosts and don't forget to come back next week for another great chat! Love Josh xxx P.S. In this episode you will have heard me chatting about my book book ‘Great Chat: Seven Lessons for Better Conversation, Deeper Connections and Improved Wellbeing' which is out now and you can get your hardback/ digital or audio book here: https://geni.us/GreatChat Whether you are already confident at chatting or are socially anxious this book really is for everyone and I hope it inspires you to turn even everyday conversation into a self development practice for your wellbeing and the good of those around you, too.

On Sunday, nine years after #OscarsSoWhite, millions of us tuned in to the 96th annual Academy Awards — some to simply take in the spectacle. And some to see how much had changed.The hashtag #OscarsSoWhite started after many people noticed that, for a second year in a row, all nominees for four of five major categories were white. The movement called on Hollywood to do better: to better reflect America's demographic realities and also to expand its  depiction of our histories.The reason: representation in Hollywood matters. What gets put on screens and by whom has reverberating impacts on how all of us see each other and see ourselves.So .... how did the Oscars do this year? And how is the entertainment industry in general faring when it comes to diversity and inclusion?It's a mixed bag. Despite some recent wins, a report from Telefilm Canada revealed that Black women have the least representation in TV and film. They also lead the fewest projects and receive the least funding overall.In today's episode, Vinita breaks down the progress made and the challenges still present especially for women of colour. She is joined by Naila Keleta-Mae, the Canada Research Chair in Race, Gender and Performance and associate professor of communication arts at the University of Waterloo and Mariah Inger, an actor and director and chair of ACTRA National's Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging Committee.

We discuss the ~discourse~ that surrounded this, including the online outrage. We reference 'The Barbie Snub Outrage Proves That When It Comes To Diversity, We're Only Thinking Of White Women' by Alexander Koster for Refinery29 Australia.  Next, why is TikTok shouting about the need to ditch trends altogether in favour of personal style?

After last week's triumphant live show to mark episode 600, the Empire Podcast team — Chris Hewitt, Helen O'Hara, James Dyer, and Amon Warmann — return to the safety of the podbooth this week to kick off the road to 700... but we're not exactly skimping on the guests. First, Blitz Bazawule, director of The Colour Purple, tells Helen all about how he tackled the big-screen version of the musical based on the Alice Walker book. Then, Chris has an audience with The Holdovers director Alexander Payne, and his Oscar-nominated star, Paul Giamatti, and they wind up talking about horror films. And finally, Alex Godfrey sits down with All Of Us Strangers stars, Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal, for a reflective chat about Andrew Haigh's wonderful new film. Either side of all of those, the podteam right some Oscars wrongs in the Listeners' Question section (although they wish it to be known that they are planning no heists), discuss more Oscars stuff in the wake of this week's nominations announcement, the revelation of the book that will form Reacher season 3, and more in a bumper News section, and then review All Of Us Strangers, The Colour Purple, and Jackdaw.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Candy Spelling, Multi-Tony Award Winning Producer, Author and Philanthropist About Harvey's guest: Today's special guest is a woman who truly exemplifies the terms self-motivation, self-reinvention, self-affirmation and ultimately, what it means to make a real difference in the world.   For 38 years she was simply known as the wife of the most prolific writer and producer in television history, Aaron Spelling, who ran Hollywood's largest and most successful production company.  He brought us such iconic TV shows as “The Mod Squad”, “Starsky & Hutch”, “Charlie's Angels”, “Fantasy Island”, “The Love Boat”, “Dynasty”, “Beverly Hills 90210”, and many more.  As the wife of one of Hollywood's most powerful executives, our guest's entire identity was wrapped up in being his collaborator, cheerleader, executive assistant, housekeeper, trophy wife, companion and support – not to mention, a very involved mother of 2 children.   After her husband died in 2006, she found herself at a profound crossroads, and over the course of the next few years, her transformation has been nothing short of astounding.   She's written 2 best selling books, “Stories from Candyland”, and “Candy at Last”.  She executive produced and starred in 2 highly successful HGTV mini-series about selling her world famous Hollywood mansion, “Spelling Manor”, AND designing and furnishing the condo she moved into after she sold the Manor.   If that weren't enough, she's become an enormously successful, multi-Tony award winning producer of 14 Broadway shows including  “Promises Promises”, “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying”, “The Colour Purple”, “Tina: The Tina Turner Musical”, “Moulin Rouge: The Musical”, and her latest smash hit multi Tony nominated shows, “Mr. Saturday Night” and  “MJ: The Musical”, which just won 4 Tony awards.   And she's actively involved in numerous civic and charitable activities, as one of America's most beloved philanthropists.  And of course, she spends as much time as she can with her 7 beautiful grandchildren, who affectionately call her “Candy Gram”.   For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ https://www.candyspelling.com/https://www.instagram.com/candyspelling/https://www.facebook.com/candy.spelling #CandySpelling   #MJTheMusical   #MrSaturdayNight  #harveybrownstoneinterviews

The year is 1991 and the nominees are: 1. Whoopi Goldberg - Ghost 2. Lorraine Bracco - Goodfellas 3. Annette Bening - The Grifters 4. Mary McDonnell - Dances With Wolves 5. Diane Ladd - Wild at Heart - In 1991 Whoopi Goldberg became the first black woman to win the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in nearly 50 years, and the second black woman to win an Academy Award for acting (the first being Hattie McDaniel for Gone with the Wind in 1940). Many argued she should have won for The Colour Purple losing out to Geraldine Page in 1986. In 2002 Whoopi sent her Oscar statue to be replated only to have it intercepted and go missing. It was later found in a trash can in a Los Angeles airport and Whoopi has since said she will never part with Oscar again. Her competition included Lorraine Bracco for Goodfellas who frankly should have been a lead but category fraud means nothing to the Academy (as I've learned with this podcast). Annette Bening gave one of her best and funniest performances in The Grifters. Mary McDonnell was in mourning in Dances with Wolves opposite Kevin Costner. Finally, Diane Ladd was nominated for one of the strangest movies I have ever seen, Wild at Heart. A film that I think you either love or you hate.

Not many people can claim to have an Emmy, Grammy AND a Tony award all on the mantlepiece – but Cynthia Erivo is an actress and singer whose immense talent has earned her recognition across the globe in a very short space of time. Roles in films like Harriet (the incredible story of former-slave and abolitionist Harriet Tubman) and on-stage in The Colour Purple, have garnered respect from the likes of Oprah Winfrey and Janelle Monáe – people who Cynthia has gone from being fans-of to friends-with. But as she explains to Tom, at the start of her career she didn't even believe she would belong at acting school, until a mentor gave her the push she needed to start a chain reaction of plot twists!
