What kind of relationship with sex do we want young people to have? In this episode myself and Tika Sumpter, known for her multifaceted career as an actor and creator, explore this question as parents and as people reparenting themselves. In this episode Tika shares her compelling personal story that shaped her approach to intimacy and education. Growing up in a Christian household, discussions about sex were often avoided or framed solely around negative consequences. This instilled fear and confusion about her own sexuality during her teenage years. In her twenties, Tika found herself navigating relationships without a clear understanding of her body or pleasure, often pretending to have a sexual IQ she hadn't yet developed. Therapy became a turning point, helping her reconnect with herself and embrace her sexual identity. Now, as a mother, Tika is determined to break this cycle for her daughter. On this episode, she opens up about her journey and shares how she is redefining sex and intimacy education in her household. Her goal is to raise her daughter to be a sexually and relationally competent individual, equipped with the tools and knowledge Tika wishes she had earlier in life. Tika is best known for her work on screen but did you know she also makes children's content? She is the creator of The Adventures of Curious Cove, a podcast anchored by the beloved series Ella the Curious. This project reflects her passion for storytelling and education, making complex topics accessible and engaging for young audiences.

Before she was producing, starring in major films, and building her media empire, Tika Sumpter was a girl from Queens with a dream but no roadmap.

From a chance encounter that led to her first agent to the game-changing roles that finally put her on the map, Tika gets real about the double standards in the industry, creating her own opportunities, and why betting on yourself is everything. Growing up in Queens and why the borough breeds some of the hardest-working people in the world The hustle of breaking into acting, from cold auditions to booking One Life to Live The Hollywood realities no one talks about race, casting biases, and what it really takes to “make it” Why Tyler Perry saw something in her that others didn't and how he's changed the industry Learning to bet on herself and take control of her career through producing, writing, and launching her own projects Motherhood and personal growth, how raising her daughter, Ella, helped her reparent herself Her latest creative ventures, including her children's podcast and new book, I Got It from My Mama The biggest risk she's ever taken, and why every woman should experience love and adventure in another country at least once This conversation is about trusting your instincts, pushing past rejection, and never waiting for permission.

He's back! Sonic the Hedgehog 3 raced into U.S. theaters last week... but it's having a bit of a, ironically, slow global rollout. I finally had the chance to see the film and when it comes to the Sonic movies, I've mildly enjoyed them. I definitely preferred 2 to 1 but the CGI cast is fun and more Jim Carrey action is always welcome. Sonic 3 had A LOT of hype and buzz around it and seemingly, the film delivered for most fans. Did I feel the same way? Find out in this review! Sonic the Hedgehog 3: Directed by: Jeff Fowler Screenplay by: Pat Casey & Josh Miller & John Whittington Story by: Pat Casey & Josh Miller Produced by: Toby Ascher, Neal H. Moritz, Toru Nakahara, Hitoshi Okuno Executive Producers: Jeff Fowler, Tommy Gormley, Tim Miller, Haruko Satomi, Shuji Utsumi Music by: Tom Holkeborg Cinematography by: Brandon Trost Editing by: Al LeVine Casting by: Sophie Holland, Jenelle Scuderi, Tricia Wood Production Design by: Luke Freeborn Costume Design by: Eleanor Baker Cast: Ben Schwartz, Jim Carrey, Keanu Reeves, Idris Elba, Colleen O'Shaughnessey, Krysten Ritter, James Marsden, Tika Sumpter, Alyla Browne Synopsis: Sonic, Knuckles, and Tails reunite against a powerful new adversary, Shadow, a mysterious villain with powers unlike anything they have faced before. With their abilities outmatched in every way, Team Sonic must seek out an unlikely alliance in hopes of stopping Shadow and protecting the planet.

Over the event’s five years, a total of $102,604.32 has been distributed. CEO Melanie Conner emphasized the program’s role as a “hand-up,” not a handout, enabling families to regain self-sufficiency.

These donations aim to combat food insecurity in Gwinnett County and beyond. On December 6, students from all grade levels sorted, packed, and delivered the items, accompanied by festive music from the GAC Concert Choir. Efforts throughout November included competitions and family-supported shopping, which helped surpass donation goals.

Hours before their Sundance premieres, we spoke with the writing fellows of Women Write Now, Hartbeat's annual comedic screenwriting fellowship for Black women in partnership with the Sundance Institute. In addition to having the three writing fellows on, we were also joined by Hartbeat's Head of Film, Candice Wilson-Cherry, who takes us through how the program is designed to directly address the lack of BIPOC women in leadership positions like showrunners and in writers' rooms. We also were joined by Hey Boo director Logan Browning who you might know from The Perfection and Dear White People. And in addition to diving into the art of comedy, we also dig into the art of directing for comedy. All of these shorts are directed by actors — the other two being Tika Sumpter and Nicole Byer. In this episode, we discuss… How the Women Write Now program is filling a void in the writing space  Their process for finding writiers and directors for the program The development process of each of the shorts  Fitting the script into only 10 pages Having to adjust things for the budgets Finding mentors who would guide fellows in nurturing yet realistic ways Doing table reads versus chemistry reads Letting go of control by trusting actors Hitting deadlines so you don't hold up production Memorable Quotes “It's really important that all of our films, tv shows, and formats are all reflective of the world.” [3:28] “That was really nice, sort of discovering a different layer and different element to the story.” [9:56] “They have helped me walk into a door that was closed.” [14:03] “Make sure your actors get to be free and play.” [22:28] “Write, write, write. You only become good, by just doing it.” [34:32] “If you feel like you are a writer to your core, don't be afraid to say it and don't be afraid to tell people.” [41:03] Mentioned: https://womenwritenow.com/ The Real Hartbeat on Instagram Candice Wilson Cherry (Producer of the films) Logan Browning (Hey Boo director) Danielle Solomon (Hey Boo writer) Mayanna Berrin (Power Dynamics writer) Kiana Butler (Night Off writer) Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web https://nofilmschool.com/ Facebook  https://www.facebook.com/nofilmschool Twitter  https://twitter.com/nofilmschool YouTube  https://www.youtube.com/user/nofilmschool Instagram https://www.instagram.com/nofilmschool Get your questions answered on the podcast by emailing editor@nofilmschool.com!
