Welcome back to the Woody Allen Retrospective Podcast for another episode of Woody Allen Adjacent—the first one of 2025!   First of all, thank you for rocking with us for another year. We GREATLY appreciate our lovely listeners, loyal subscribers, and thoughtful supporters!   For those who don't know, in Woody Allen Adjacent, our podcast hosts work their way through films they like to compare and contrast with Woody Allen's filmography and/or writing style.   Recently, Donald has charged the AI Assistant of the show to dig even deeper and generate a wider list of interesting Adjacent movies—some of which may feel a little ‘out of the norm,' so to speak.   As we rotate our turns for Adjacent every month, we're slowly working our way through a fascinating list of films. We've already covered quite a few at this point, some obvious, some not so.   For the AI's turn this month, it has chosen Claudine (1974), a touching romantic dramedy starring Diahann Carroll and James Earl Jones. Set in Harlem, Claudine offers a heartfelt yet sharp critique of the welfare system, family dynamics, and love in a time of financial struggle. While it arrived during the height of the Blaxploitation era, Claudine took a more grounded and human approach, telling a personal and deeply affecting story.   Incidentally, Claudine has a loose connection to Woody Allen via James Earl Jones, who later starred in The Comedians (1974), a film featuring Richard Burton, who worked with Woody Allen in Stardust Memories (1980)—a bit of trivia for those who like to make those six degrees of separation-style links!   So, join us for this deep dive into a film that may not be an obvious Woody Adjacent pick but certainly deserves its place in the discussion.   - Links Mentioned in This Episode -   Please check out the links below for the full cast, user reviews, ratings, and any additional information you may find interesting:   Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claudine_(film)   IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0071334/   Rotten Tomatoes: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/claudine   A VERY Special Thanks to The Woody Allen Pages Website & The Woody Allen Subreddit for their continued support and info—check them out for the latest from the Woody Allen Fan Community!   https://www.woodyallenpages.com & https://www.reddit.com/r/woodyallen   PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT on this or any other episode using our comment section video link here >>> https://bit.ly/warpcom   If you like the show, please consider buying us a coffee / giving us a tip via our Patreon campaign >>> https://www.patreon.com/woodyretro   Thanks for listening as always!

"One of the things I love about looking back at 80s television is you get to see some early and amazing young stars and very exciting stunt casting."It's Guest Stars Galore on 80s TV Ladies! We're taking a nostalgic trip back to the iconic 80s sitcom "A Different World." Susan and Sharon debate -- and celebrate -- the amazing roster of guest stars that walked the halls of Hillman College during the six seasons of A Different World. As one of the only black-centered shows of its time, A Different World was in many ways “the only game in town” for a certain generation of black performers, and under show-runner Debbie Allen it became a real showcase for black celebrities who -- even in the 80's and 90's -- didn't have as many opportunities when it came to network television exposure.Legendary performers—such as Lena Horne, Josephine Premice, Patti LaBelle, Diahann Carroll, Robert Guillaume, Gladys Knight—and modern stars like Whoopi Goldberg, Raven Symone, Halle Berry… and Tupac Shakur—found a spotlight. Susan and Sharon get out their red pens and grade books and fight it out, narrowing down who will finally be “Best in Class” -- The Top Ten Guest Stars of A Different World!THE CONVERSATIONTHE TOP TWO: How Patti LaBelle and Diahann Carroll are so hilarious -- and perfectly cast -- as the moms of Dwayne and Whitley: two parents from very “different worlds”.Whoopi Goldberg was the secret weapon that allowed the show to do an “AIDS Episode” (“If I Should Die Before I Wake” S4; EP23). Once she signed on, the network couldn't say no. It became the highest rated episode of the season.Josephine Premice played the art dealer that Whitley works for in S4 -- and is the mother of writer/showrunner Susan Fales-Hill! (She later plays Dwayne and Whitley's landlord in S6!)The beautiful Billy Dee Williams plays a former baseball player (S6; EP23) who decides to finish college -- and ends up in the classroom of his old flame: Leslie Uggams!But is it a true 80s TV Ladies show? Sharon calls out showrunner Debbie Allen. She directed 83 episodes of the show (104 were directed by women) and steered it through most of its run.Jennifer Lewis -- as Dean Dorothy Dandridge Davidson -- hits the heights in the Lena Horne Episode -- “A Rock, A River, A Lena” (S6; E22)Susan calls out Gladys Knight in “Three Girls Three” (S2; EP5) -- a classic 80's stunt casting coup that is everything you want it to be!Can you believe it? Susan also loves a very “guy-centric” episode: “Citizen Wayne” (S2; EP21) -- starring Jesse Jackson. But this isn't on Sharon's list for reasons…Who are the TWO GUEST STARS who get cut from the list? One is a guy… And one is… ALSO A GUY!So -- join Susan and Sharon as they talk Brian's Song, Kris Kross, Tisha Campbell, high-kicks, the “Evolution of Whitley,” Gilbert Gottfried, “checking the gate” -- and showering with Blair Underwear (we mean Under-wood!).AUDIOGRAPHYFind out more about “A Different World College Tour 2024” at adwtour.com.Read about Whoopi Goldberg and the A Different World AIDS episode at Hollywood Reporter.Read an oral history of A Different World in Vanity Fair.Watch A Different World -- streaming on MAX.Find out more about A Different World at the official Facebook page.Check out Tammy at the true-crime podcast: Grits with a Side of Murder.Sign up to nominate 80s TV Ladies for a Podcast Award!

ELGIN CHARLES, known the world over as the “Emperor of Hair”, has been the proprietor of his upscale beauty salon in the heart of Beverly Hills for more than 25 years. The San Antonio, TX native can best be described as a scholar and creative genius; due in part to rearing from both his father, a biochemist, and his mother, an award-winning blues singer. Never one to rest on his laurels, Elgin decided to walk away from a highly successful career in finance at Smith Barney in his early 20s, in pursuit of his passion – hair! His innovative styles and techniques have generated widespread adulation. His client roster has included: Lala Anthony, The Kardashians, Joan Collins, Diahann Carroll, Drew Barrymore, Serena Williams, Gabrielle Union, Joy Behar, Estelle, Verdine White, Star Jones, Natalie Cole, Tia & Tamera Mowry, Baroness Monica von Neumann, and countless other notables. With a background in biology and chemistry from St. Mary's University, Elgin has developed his own signature line of luxury hair care products that fosters the needs of those with varying styles and types of hair. His principles for attaining one's beauty and life goals can be found in his top-selling book, Believe It, Conceive It, Achieve It. Now sitting atop the tonsorial heap, Mr. Charles continues to expand upon his globally recognized brand. Additional salon locations, a school of cosmetology, and an expanded product line are all in the works. Elgin Charles is an undeniable force and an icon in the multi-billion dollar beauty industry, with his sights now set on conquering the literary world. A uniquely triumphant and candidly unnerving read, his second book, By The Way, serves a completely raw depiction of a life lived fearlessly and out loud, despite the odds and the spiritual warfare raging within. Elgin and his ex-wife, television icon Jackée Harry, have a son together, Frank; a graduate of Beverly Hills High and an aspiring professional boxer. In addition to family, Elgin, a known philanthropist, is giving of his time and resources to a number of causes; chiefly, United Way, United Negro College Fund, Women's International Center, and Daughter's Of Power. Elgin is also a very giving performer, with his talents venturing far beyond the beauty industry. He has made appearances in Chris Rock's critically-acclaimed documentary Good Hair, the Style Network's Split Ends, countless talk shows, including Oprah, The View, The Talk, and Wendy Williams, and has even starred in his own top-rated VH1 docuseries, Beverly Hills Fabulous. If ever there were a person who represented both diversity and an exceptional business acumen, it would be Elgin Charles. In knowing this, Mr. Charles felt inclined to embark upon a mission that allows him to serve as a vessel for others to achieve greatness. He founded DIBS, the Diversity In Business Summit, solely for that reason. The annual event seeks to strengthen the presence of diversity and inclusion across all industries, end discrimination against underrepresented individuals in the workplace, and identify clearer paths to equal opportunities for all. Elgin Charles Beverly Hills

Diahann Carroll was born in the Bronx, New York, on July 17, 1935. When she was an infant, the family moved to Harlem, where she grew up. She attended Music & Art High School, along with schoolmate Billy Dee Williams. By the time Carroll was 15, she was modeling for Ebony magazine. After graduating from high school, Carroll attended New York University and eventually hit it big in Hollywood. Carroll starred in "Carmen Jones" in 1954 and "Porgy and Bess" in 1959. She was a trailblazer, who, in the 1960s, became one of the first Black women to star in a television series. In 1974, she became only the fourth Black actress to receive a Best Actress in a Leading Role nomination for "Claudine." Over a career that spanned five decades, Diahann Carroll broke barriers and opened doors for Black actors. Although we lost Carroll in 2019, at the age of 84, her legacy lives on.
