Every once in a while, I come across a speech that inspires me to take action. The other day, while scrolling on TikTok, I stumbled on a speech by Rolonda Watts. For those of you who don't know, Rolonda had her own talk show back in the mid 1990s. The syndicated show ran from 1994 until 1997. Now I must admit, at first glance I didn't recognize the face but the voice, I definitely knew. After consulting with Google, I quickly paired the voice to the face I finally remembered. This entire discovery is actually quite ironic because in her speech, Rolonda briefly shared that she herself has gone through several reinventions. But the part that got me in my feelings is when she gave this simple advice, “if you don't like something change it.” – Want to connect?

Det här är berättelsen om rapparen som var först med färgglada peruker, chockade världen med sina explicita texter och länge fick kämpa för att lyckas bevisa att hon klarade sig utan Biggie. Manhattan, den 18 mars 1997. En extra stor kista, i glänsande mahogny, rullas ut ur begravningskapellet på Madison Avenue. I kistan ligger en av världens största rappare. Christopher Wallace, känd som The Notorious B.I.G, eller Biggie Smalls. Ett stort pressuppbåd väntar när begravningsföljet kommer ut ur kyrkan. De 350 gästerna är elegant svartklädda, i glänsande skinnkavajer och fluffiga pälsar. Många har solglasögon, trots att det är vintermulet ute. Hiphop-giganter som Puff Daddy, Jay-Z och Queen Latifah skymtar fram i vimlet. Gästerna hälsar lågmält på varandra i trängseln.En av de sista som kommer ut ur kapellet är Lil Kim. En nykläckt hiphop-drottning, känd för sin sexiga stil och sina grova låttexter, som just sålt dubbel-platina med sitt debutalbum. Trots att hon bara är en och femtio lång, är Lil Kim omöjlig att missa för fotograferna. Hon är den enda i kändishavet som inte kan hålla tillbaka tårarna. Lil Kim hulkar och fulgråter mitt på Madison Avenue. Hon stöttas upp av sin vän, artisten Mary J Blige, och bryr sig inte om att skydda sitt ansikte från kamerorna. Till slut faller Kim ihop i Marys armar. Hon ser ut att skrika av smärta. Lil Kim har precis sagt hejdå till mannen hon beskriver som sin mentor, pappa, bror och älskare i ett. Biggie, som lärt henne att rappa med ett rimschema och en attityd som gjort dem båda världskända. Han som tagit in henne i sin familj – och älskat henne som ingen annan. När Kim bryter ihop på trottoaren, förstår hon inte hur hon ska kunna leva vidare utan Biggie. Samtidigt går snacket i musikbranschen, om huruvida Biggies död också betyder slutet på hennes kometkarriär. För vad är egentligen Lil Kim utan Biggie Smalls?P3 Musikdokumentär om Lil Kim är berättelsen om raptalangen som växer upp på gatan, bryter ny mark på hiphopscenen och hellre hamnar i fängelse än förlorar sin kredd.Dokumentären är gjord av Elinor Ahlborn våren 2023Producent Joanna KorbutiakExekutiv producent Anna LillkungSlutmix Fredrik NilssonProgramledare Siri HillMedverkande: Mariana Benyamin Sir, Ayan Jamal och Mohamed TouzariLjudklippen i dokumentären kommer från Rolonda, BET, Youtube, Power 105, Power 106, Hot 97, Revolt TV, CBS, MTV och Watch what happens live.

Welcome back to another killer episode.  This one will certainly not disappoint especially for my TV, VoiceOver and theater peeps.  Join me as I sit with the incredible Ace award-winning talents of Rolonda Watts.  Listen in as she talks about the hidden agendas and the manipulation of words by the powers that be to entice racism, skepticism and miss information just for the sole purpose of sensationalism just to grow followers and ratings and how it's destroying the integrity of real journalism.  We talk about how  tricky it can be to navigate between the gifts that we desire to do and what we're destined to do and to continuously check in with yourself and prioritize what is truly important in your life right now to avoid getting trapped in the illusion of perception as seen through the eyes of social media.  Finally we discuss the importance of telling the truth but even more importantly telling honest and good stories that change laws,  educate and change minds as Rolonda has successfully done by not being afraid to talk about controversial topics like pedophilia, white supremacy, and hidden agendas used for separation which is evidently destroying the unity of the world.

In this episode of Rolonda on Demand, I introduce you to two of my favorite women of FAITH - Reverend Shannon A. White and Reverend Dr. Terrlyn Curry Avery - both with whom I share a special friendship as the two of them share the pulpit to the pew for social and spiritual change. The two ministers discuss maintaining a mindset of faith and the importance of learning, growing and stretching in these drastic times of change, truth and discomfort. Shannon introduces herself: I am a graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary with an emphasis in Pastoral Care. Since my ordination in 1990, I have served three other congregations--one in Scarsdale, NY and two in Greenwich, CT. But I felt my call to ministry in another way as well. Wanting to broaden and deepen public discourse on pertinent issues, I became a radio host with a rabbi colleague and then a TV reporter for 9 years. Two of my pieces on incarceration and addiction were nominated for Emmys. I also served as Assoc. Producer for the CBS News Religion Unit, putting together 4 interfaith documentaries a year. I love to travel to non-touristy places around the world, ride my bike, run and do the NY Times crossword—but only through Wednesday. I have an incredible daughter, Peyton, who attends the University of Delaware. I am the author of How Was School Today? Fine (co-written with my daughter) and The Invisible Conversations with Your Aging Parents. Contact Shannon at https://www.facebook.com/wiltonpresby... The Reverend. Dr. Terrlyn L. Curry Avery and I met in India, studying meditation atop Mt. Abu! Terrlyn is the creator of Pastology, the cutting edge field that focuses on the synergy between pastoring and psychology. She holds a Ph.D. from Hofstra University and a Masters of Divinity from Yale University. She calls herself a pastologist and is a transformational leader, speaker, author and retreat leader. Rev. Dr. Terrlyn L. Curry Avery has a unique approach to healing, transformation, and manifestation. She places the emphasis on your journey toward sacred intelligence: your ability to tap into your internal source in order to move toward intelligent choices. Those choices are intended to honor the Sacred and help you manifest your greatness, while simultaneously embracing the humanity of those around you. Rev. Dr. Curry Avery believes that ‘relating’ on both a spiritual and human level is crucial to helping ourselves and others manifest our greatness and creating more harmonious life sustaining relationships. Rev. Dr. Curry Avery works with highly influential and committed leaders who need spiritual and psychological support as they transform the world by creating a legacy of service, prosperity, and greatness. Rev. Dr. Curry Avery is the author of Sacred Intelligence: The Essence of Sacred, Selfish & Shared Relationships and is currently writing her second book with a working title Sacred Intelligence: Leading with Passion and Faith During Unprecedented Times. www.sacredintelligence.com info@sacredintelligence.com https://www.facebook.com/terrlyncurry...

Ice Skating Champion Tonya Harding is right now competing for her life and for excellence in another field -- Dancing with the Stars! She has openly called the TV opportunity her second chance to prove herself, after years of feeling isolated and wrongly judged following the biggest scandal to ever hit ice skating. A scandal so big it still resonates across the world today; the story becoming a blockbuster movie with Hollywood actress Allison Janney winning the 2018 Oscar Award for Best Supporting Actress. But now, it's Tonya's turn ... Rolonda shares about her relationship with Tonya Harding and her exclusive talk show interview with the then-embattled ice skater who sat with Ro just months after her alleged knee-bashing "Incident" with Nancy Kerrigan in 1994. It was a journalistic "get" so big - it put the then-new Rolonda Show on the map as a true contender in the talk show field. While Tonya was later proved not guilty of the attack, she was still banned for life from the sport she loved and the one thing in which excelled. Tonya talks openly and exclusively with Rolonda about everything from the years of abuse she suffered from her husband to the horrid feeling of being a punished outsider in her own field. It is interesting to compare the young Tonya in the midst of a huge scandal 24 years ago to the one today Dancing with the Stars on ABC, seeking a second chance to shine!

Today's Guest: Rolonda Watts, novelist, "Destiny Lingers," former syndicated TV talk show host, "Rolonda"  Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Rolonda Watts by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of white, Southern sheriffs whose first thought upon encountering a beautiful African-American woman on the beach these days may not always be the prospect of an illicit affair -- unfortunately… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Destiny Lingers by Rolonda Watts. Order your copy today by clicking on the book cover above! If you’re in the public eye, folks love to read deeper meaning or intent into everything you do or say. That’s why I’m betting that Rolonda Watts never seriously considering writing a romance novel during the years she was best known as the host of the Emmy Award-nominated, syndicated daytime TV talk show cleverly dubbed “Rolonda.” ROLONDA WATTS podcast excerpt: "Once you give your characters flesh and bone and little tics and blonde hair, they become real! I had a lady one time at a a book signing say, 'I got everything you were telling us about writing, but when you got to the part about the characters talking to you, you lost me!'" Her millions of viewers might have looked at her a little differently if she wrote the following paragraph back then: Garrett gently kisses me on my forehead, my eyelids, my temples, and my cheeks. He caressses my hair and begins to press his strong hard body against mine. He becomes aroused, his muscular thigh rubbing in between mine. First of all, they’d wonder: “Why does Garrett only have one muscular thigh? What’s wrong with the other one? Or—is he an amputee? Not that there is anything wrong with that – it’s probably a genre of its own!” But, I digress: He dives his hot tongue into my mouth, and I am so hungry for his kiss that I nearly swallow it… So you get the idea. That would likely become a little distracting from the day’s talk show topic, whether, “Where Are All the Good Black Men?” or “I’ve Been Stood Up 26 Times” or “Beauty and the Breasts.” ROLONDA WATTS podcast excerpt: "Writing has been a hobby for me since I was a little girl. During my talk show, in 1996, Hurricane Bertha slammed Topsail Island, where 'Destiny Lingers' takes place, and I had a home there. Dumb me wanted to stay there and cover the story for 'Inside Edition.' By the time the TV production truck got to the island, it was too dangerous to let the truck on and too dangerous for me to get off. I was one of 11 stubborn stragglers left on the island. This is what started the story." I Think My Soulmate is Rolonda Watts. Order yours today by clicking on the t-shirt above! Actually, maybe a romance novel would have been a perfect companion. Rolanda on TV was fearless and funny, sassy and a bit silly at times. With Destiny Lingers, Rolonda Watts takes all that personality once squeezed into the tube and lets her love flow across 255 pages of fiction. How much of it is romantic fiction and how much is real life? We’ll find out next, on Rolonda!

Twenty years ago, broadcast journalist Rolonda Watts was all over the OJ Simpson trial, the first talk show to cover it and gain exclusive access inside the courtroom. While her counterparts in the talk show world were throwing chairs, breaking noses and popping paternity tests, Rolonda was getting kids out of gangs, saving teens from suicide, and going live in state prisons talking about moms beyond bars on her internationally syndicated show “Rolonda”. Since her days as a daytime TV show host and nightly news anchor, Rolonda has branched out as actress, voice-over artist, comedian, and novelist. Today, she draws on of her real-life experiences as a journalist, as a black woman, as a woman looking for love and proves herself a player in the romance genre. Rolonda’s recent novel Destiny Lingers (iUniverse; 978-1-49176-862-4; $27. 95) explores the love affair between former childhood friends from different socio-economic and racial backgrounds. It’s a story of sacrifice, racial divide in the South, betrayal and familial strife inspired by Watts’ personal experiences living in Topsail Island, NC, surviving Hurricane  Bertha’s attack, as well as her own struggles with racism and love.
