Festive Friday returns with a Tyler Perry holiday transformation! ABOUT TYLER PERRY'S FINDING JOY Stranded in Colorado after a devastating holiday revelation, a talented but overlooked NYC designer finds unexpected love, transforming her life and career path. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR TYLER PERRY'S FINDING JOY November 5, 2025 | Prime Video CAST & CREW OF TYLER PERRY'S FINDING JOY Director: Tyler Perry Writer: Tyler Perry Cast: Shannon Thornton as Joy Tosin Morohunfola as Ridge BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS Joy is a talented fashion designer in New York City but you wouldn't know it because her mean boss, Patrick, steals all her designs. Despite warnings from her friends Ashley and Leticia, Joy is really into a dude named Colton. They don't think he's just that into her. So, when Colton invites her to Colorado to meet his family and hints that he has an important question to ask, Joy is convinced a proposal is coming. But, when she arrives in Colorado, she finds out that Colton's big question is "will you be my best woman cuz I'm getting marrrieddddd". Humiliated and heartbroken, Joy jumps out the window into a worsening snowstorm, determined to return home. She gets to the airport but a bad snowstorm has grounded all the flights. So she rents the last car available and attempts to drive it but gets lost and drives onto a frozen lake which cracks! She falls in. She's about to die. But she wakes up in a cabin and meets Ridge Phillips, a rugged outdoorsman living in a remote mountain cabin. I think it's safe to say that Joy and Ridge clash over their vastly different lifestyles. After she fixes a quilt that she accidentally ripped that was made by his late mother, they begin to open up about their personal disappointments, family struggles, and broken hearts. Joy's friends launch a desperate search for her. They call Colton and he's like I don't know where she is! So the search is on! Back at the cabin, wouldn't you know it, I think they're starting to like each other. After a night of drinking and talking, they kiss biggg ones and who knows what else. The next morning, the storm clears and she's like well I oughta be heading out which makes him real sad given their night together. They get to the main road and the sheriff's office are pulling up with their friends in the car. Colton is also there and is like my bad. Ridge starts walking back to his cabin without even saying goodbye. Back in New York, Joy comes back to work and is promptly fired because her friends emailed Patrick's boss proof of him stealing her designs. Naturally they fire her instead of him. Ridge shows up unexpectedly, determined to tell her what he should have said before she left Colorado. He tells her that he loves her! They kiss BIG ONESSSS! She tells him that she wants to go to Colorado with him. Before they leave, she gets called back into the office. They offer her Patrick's job. She gets her own line. She says this isn't what I want for my life anymore. But after talking it over with Ridge, he helps her realize that she's just scared. So she goes and takes the job and then next thing you know, her and Ridge get married in Colorado! Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

Rob Has a Podcast | Survivor / Big Brother / Amazing Race - RHAP
Who’s the Survivor GOAT? – Tony Vlachos Who is the greatest player in Survivor history? On this special series, Survivor's Rob Cesternino welcomes Mike Bloom to debate and analyze the journey and legacy of Tony Vlachos, one of the game's legends, as Survivor's big moves era takes center stage. In this first installment of the five-part “Survivor GOAT” series, Rob and Mike dig deep into Tony's path from Cagayan chaos to winner's circle in Winners at War. The episode launches with Mike making the case for Tony as the greatest of all time, spotlighting Tony's adaptability, boldness, and game-breaking creativity—like burying himself to eavesdrop in Tribal Council and masterminding the “spy shack.” The discussion highlights pivotal moments, including Tony's dominant win in Winners at War against a stacked cast of returning champions and his unpredictable run in Cagayan. Rob, tasked with playing devil's advocate, challenges whether Tony's gameplay is truly repeatable and questions the role of luck, social mishaps, and key relationships—like his unique bond with Sarah Lacina—in Tony's success. Key topics on the table include: – Tony's “lions vs. hyenas” strategy and its impact on the Winners at War dynamics – The wild swings and frenetic moves of Tony's Cagayan run, including idol plays and the infamous “top five, baby” celebration – The influence of production twists like the Tyler Perry idol and Tony's clever manipulation of idol rules – The social relationships that helped (and sometimes hurt) Tony, with special focus on Sarah Lacina and Trish Hegarty – Debating if Tony's high-risk, high-reward style could work in different Survivor eras Rob and Mike examine whether Tony's legendary moments and outsized personality truly add up to GOAT status, or if his record-setting wins simply belong to the big moves era alone. Is Tony's Survivor blueprint one that anyone could replicate—or is he truly a one-of-a-kind unicorn?

Gillian Flynn's novel Gone Girl defined a literary niche when it first came out in 2012, and it still defines it to this day. David Fincher's great 2014 adaptation—written in collaboration with Flynn—is one of the greatest and most fun movie thrillers of the 21st century. Now I want to present you with a terrifying scenario: What if this book had come out three years later, and instead of this glorious 2.5-hour film, we got a boring 12-hour streaming series? Come on, you can see it right now in your mind: Episode 3 is a flashback to Amy's life as a child, with none of the regular actors in it. Episode 9 is the Desi episode, and Amy finally arrives at his door right before the closing credits. No thank you. And so 1-Week Rental is here to take you through the history of that movie. How Gillian Flynn wrote her novel and then worked closely with Fincher on the production, how perfect the casting of both Ben Affleck and Rosamund Pike was, how Reese Witherspoon produced the movie with the intention of playing Amazing Amy herself only to be told by Fincher she was all wrong for the part, and how this movie is loosely based on the lives of Laci Roth and Matt Stokes. Did you know that? Watch the history segment in full on YouTube: https://youtu.be/i0WuyvYAyrg We're off next week (June 5, 2026). The next episode will be out on Friday, June 12, 2026 when our summer miniseries begins. The Summer of Nolan opens with a podcast about Christopher Nolan's Memento (2000)! Time stamps: 00:05:50 — History segment: Gillian Flynn writes the Gone Girl novel; movie optioned by Reese Witherspoon and David Fincher is hired to direct; career of Rosamund Pike; career of Ben Affleck 00:51:40 — Movie discussion 02:38:20 — Final thoughts & star ratings Gone Girl (2014) was directed by David Fincher.

On this episode of Black and Snerdy, Ode (@thatsod.e / @thatsod_e) and Mo "Kid" Licorish (@licorishislegit) celebrate Mother's Day with an all-new segment called "This or That: Mother's Day Edition," ranking and debating the greatest Black mothers in pop culture history. They kick things off with a spirited Claire Huxtable vs. Aunt Viv showdown — weighing Phylicia Rashad's groundbreaking prototype against Janet Hubert's cultural backbone — then move to Florida Evans vs. Rochelle Rock, breaking down Esther Rolle's improvised "damn, damn, damn" moment and Tichina Arnold's no-nonsense energy on Everybody Hates Chris. The matchups keep coming as they pit Cookie Lyon against Tasha St. Patrick, with Taraji P.

Von is back with episode 62 of the Von Talks podcast and in this episode he starts off by asking how the people are doing and hopes that everything is good for the most part. He talks about the new game Pragmata and the forced hate surrounding it, but it's not working because the game is actually too good to hate on. He talks about watching one of the Madea plays which isn't that bad to be honest. Not a Tyler Perry fan by any means but from what I saw he used to be a good writer. Moving on he didn't listen to much music but he continues to praise POMPEII//UTILITY. To end the show, you already know he stresses the importance of saving and investing your money and to prepare for the future.

Daytime Confidential celebrates its 1200th episode with the return of Jamey Giddens to the podcast. Join Luke Kerr and Jamey Giddens as they reminisce over the show's 1200 episodes, dive into Jamey's award-winning writing career, the great news of Beyond the Gates' two year renewal and reveals publicly for the first time the cancer diagnosis and treatment he underwent over the past year. The duo discusses Jamey's evolution from soap opera journalist to daytime and primetime soap opera writer on shows like The Rich and the Ruthless, Tyler Perry's Sistas, Days of Our Lives and Beyond the Gates. Jamey recounts the impact of Will Packer's mentorship through their show Ambitions and acknowledges the karma in going from a podcast journalist critiquing TV writing to being on the receiving end of fan critiques. The two celebrate the two-year renewal of Beyond the Gates, what it means for the show and for the soap opera genre as an industry. Jamey credits Michelle Val Jean for the show's success and gives a shout out to the show's amazing cast, crew, writing team and production assistant. Luke and Jamey observe how daytime talk shows are being slaughtered by video podcasts and which talk shows remain unique while others seem to be Oprah or Ellen knockoffs. Luke and Jamey remember early Daytime Confidential listener The Best, better known as Tiggz, and co-host of The Chat. Our thoughts go out to those closest to him. Luke and Jamey delve into the nuance of the WGA's new deal with the studios. Jamey shares his life-altering prostate cancer diagnosis, treatment and how the experience and his continued recovery has made him face some things he never anticipated.

What if the most powerful moves in business happen BEFORE you even walk into the room? Jeremy Zimmer built one of Hollywood's most dominant agencies from a boutique small business to a global empire by understanding one thing: deals are won or lost long before anyone sits down to negotiate. Jeremy Zimmer is the co-founder and former CEO of United Talent Agency (UTA), representing names like Christopher Nolan, M. Night Shyamalan, Charlize Theron, Harrison Ford, and Samuel L. Jackson. He started in the William Morris mailroom after flunking out of college and getting stabbed working a parking lot. He built UTA into a powerhouse through 19 acquisitions in 13 years, stood up to Harvey Weinstein before anyone else would, and spent decades competing ruthlessly with Ari Emanuel while staying profitable. In this conversation, he breaks down how to spot real talent, how to win deals before they start, and why taste will always matter more than execution. You'll learn: Why the best agents can spot creative genius in 10 pages and what separates taste from execution Why getting rid of toxic high performers makes companies stronger even when it feels terrifying How competing with Ari Emanuel for decades taught him to emulate the best and ignore the rest Why talent is becoming landlords and how 50 Cent and Tyler Perry are rewriting the Hollywood playbook The future of Hollywood: consolidation, AI, and why the platforms are the real competition now Start your newsletter today with beehiiv!

In this episode, Dr. Boyce Watkins breaks down the shocking business story shaking up Black media: Tyler Perry and BET Plus potentially being swallowed into Paramount's larger corporate structure. What does this mean for Black ownership, Black media, and the future of Black economic power in entertainment?Tyler Perry has built one of the most powerful independent media empires in history, creating billions of dollars in value through films, television, and his historic Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta. Meanwhile, BET Plus, a streaming platform built around Black storytelling, has become a key player in digital entertainment for Black audiences. But as major corporations consolidate power, many are asking an important question: Will Black media remain independent, or will it continue to be absorbed by larger corporate conglomerates like Paramount Global?In this video, Dr. Boyce Watkins analyzes the business strategy behind Paramount's media consolidation, the economics of streaming platforms, the importance of Black ownership in Hollywood, and what this could mean for the long-term future of Black entertainment and Black wealth creation. If Tyler Perry's empire becomes more closely tied to Paramount, is this a smart business move—or another example of how large corporations swallow independent success?This conversation goes deeper than celebrity headlines. It's about power, ownership, intellectual property, and who controls the economic future of Black culture in media and entertainment.Dr. Boyce Watkins is a Finance PhD, economist, and the founder of The Black Business School, where millions of students have learned how to build wealth through stock market investing, entrepreneurship, real estate, and financial literacy. He is the author of the bestselling book The 10 Commandments of Black Economic Power and has appeared on major media platforms including CNN, BET, The Breakfast Club, and MSNBC. Through his daily commentary and educational programs, Dr. Watkins helps Black families understand generational wealth, economic empowerment, and the power of ownership.To learn more about building wealth and economic independence, visit BoyceWatkins.com.
A Note from James:This is why I love doing podcasts—talking to people like Dr. Sheena Howard, author of Why Wakanda Matters. Wakanda is the country where Black Panther is from, and Sheena has written extensively about comics, including work on Black Panther itself.We talk about comics, race, and storytelling. I asked a question I was almost afraid to ask—whether the Black Panther movie was racist against other Black people—and she gave a surprising answer. We also talk about a time she was abducted in Jamaica, along with a lot of other topics.I loved this conversation. Please listen. Episode Description:James sits down with Dr. Sheena Howard—scholar, comic book writer, and Eisner Award winner—for a conversation that moves between pop culture, publishing, and personal survival.They use Black Panther as a lens to examine how stories shape identity, how representation evolves, and why cultural narratives are often filtered through systems that weren't built to support them. Sheena breaks down the tension between nationalism and isolationism in Wakanda, and why audiences interpret the same story in radically different ways.The conversation also goes deeper—into how gatekeeping works in publishing today, how creators can bypass it, and why building your own audience may be the most reliable path forward.And then there's the story she didn't tell for years: being abducted at 19. What happened, why she stayed silent, and what it reveals about psychology, fear, and resilience.This episode is about storytelling—but also about control: who has it, who doesn't, and how to take it back.What You'll Learn:Why “Black superheroes don't sell” is a myth—and how the industry perpetuates it anywayThe real gatekeeping mechanism in publishing today (and why audience ownership matters more than ever)How subtle bias shows up now—not in obvious barriers, but in shifting goalpostsWhat makes a story resonate across audiences (and why Black Panther worked at scale)The psychology of abusive situations—and how awareness and boundaries are built over timeTimestamped Chapters:[03:04] A Note from James[03:53] Favorite Superheroes: From Captain America to Black Panther[04:27] Why Black Panther Connected Culturally[04:43] The $1.2B Question: Why So Late for Black Superheroes?[05:17] Luke Cage, Netflix, and the “Myth” That Black Stories Don't Sell[05:39] Tyler Perry and the “Outlier” Problem[06:23] Pressure on Black-Led Films to Be Perfect[07:00] What Wakanda Represents (Uncolonized Possibility)[07:53] Killmonger: Anger, Oppression, and Relatability[08:23] MLK vs. Malcolm X Parallel in Black Panther[09:00] Identity Formation: African vs. African American Perspectives[09:47] Are Black Superheroes Designed to “Feel Safe”?[10:28] Gentrification, Stereotypes, and Media Influence[11:50] Media Isn't “Just Entertainment”[12:00] Early Representation and Cultural Messaging[12:28] Who Created Black Panther—and Why That Matters[13:07] Rewriting History: What Would She Change?[13:49] Designing a Modern Black Superhero[14:47] Why a Modern Hero Might Be “Invisible”[15:44] Publishing Barriers and Gatekeeping Conversations[16:36] Social Media vs. Traditional Publishing Access[17:26] Building 163K Followers—and Still Not Enough[21:47] The Instagram Post: “I Was Abducted at 19”[22:11] How It Started: Cheap Tour, No Money, Bad Decision[23:05] The Trap: Locked House and Escalation[25:00] Refusal and Survival Strategy[26:02] Car Crash and Escape Attempt[27:00] Walking Away and Getting Home[28:30] Why She Stayed Silent for Years[29:20] Abusive Relationships and Self-Blame[30:26] Leaving Abuse: The Role of Her Son[31:06] Love Bombing and Early Warning Signs[33:02] Recognizing Red Flags in Relationships[35:45] Teaching Kids Boundaries and Self-Worth[37:21] “Is Wakanda Racist?”—The Big Question[38:00] Nationalism vs. Racism Explained[39:00] Isolationism vs. Imperialism[41:00] Why Some Black Superheroes Don't Break Out[43:00] The Loss (and Survival) of Great Storytelling[46:14] How She Got Hired by Marvel (Cold Email + PI)[48:29] Why Pitching Ideas to Marvel Often Fails[50:00] Cold Outreach: Being Seen Before Heard[52:00] Do You Need Social Media to Sell Books?

Crystal Renee welcomes KJ Smith Black and Jordan Coleman to celebrate 10 seasons of Tyler Perry’s Sistas and talk about what it’s like playing sisters on screen while building real sisterhood off set. They share how their chemistry came naturally, Jordan’s nerves joining an established cast in season 10 (including a vulnerable first-day scene), and how KJ made space for Jordan to shine. The conversation touches on character growth, family trauma and deflection, the pressure of carrying a show, and how fame can feel isolating even with strong support. They also discuss We Got You Sis community events, handling social media negativity with boundaries and blocking, and why their platforms come with responsibility. KJ plugs her Black Coffee business, and Jordan shares she’s producing an action short film. @luvcrystalrenee @KingJayBarnettSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Crystal Renee welcomes Tunde Oyeneyin to the Keep It Positive, Sweetie Show to talk about stepping into acting as Madison Truitt on Tyler Perry’s Sistas, joining a series in its 10th season, and what it takes to be ready for a fast, one-take set. Tunde shares how she and Chris first connected through Peloton and later met in person, then reflects on pivoting publicly—from 16 years in cosmetics to cycling after a life-changing first class, to becoming a New York Times bestselling author, and now a series regular. They discuss ambition, being a successful Black woman who’s sometimes misunderstood, balancing strength with vulnerability, and choosing not to shrink your life for a relationship. Tunde also talks about soul care, guarding her peace as visibility grows, and upcoming projects, including Sports Illustrated Swim.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
