Iyanla Vanzant is one of the most interesting guests I’ve ever had. In this talk she deeply analyzes the world, herself, me, everything. She’s a fountain of wisdom. I generally am skeptical of spiritual guru types but this woman is doing the work of saving people. And this conversation shows me how deeply she thinks and cares about people. It was an honor to get to know her. Let me know what you think. IG @toureshow twitter @toure.

Eddie Glaude is one of those brilliant intellectuals who makes the life of the mind seem cool. He’s an MSNBC star, a Princeton professor, and the author of Begin Again: James Baldwin's America and Its Urgent Lessons for Our Own which mines Baldwin’s work for modern lessons. I’m a huge fan of Baldwin’s and a big fan of Glaude’s so this was a real treat.

Joy Reid’s ascension to MSNBC's vaunted 7pm weekday time slot makes her one of the few Black women to ever host a prime time news show so we had to dig into the archive and replay our interview from 2018. She digs into how she handles Trump surrogates on TV, how she dealt with getting fired while on the air, and how she survived the death of her mother just before she was set to go to Harvard. She’s an extraordinary person who’s both brilliant and hard working and I’m proud to call her a friend.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dear White People is one of the hottest shows on TV right now and the mind behind it is the brilliant Justin Simien. We do a deep dive into the themes and messages of the show in which I find out that Dear White People, a show I adore, was partly inspired by my 2012 book “Who’s Afraid of Post-Blackness, What It Means To Be Black Now.” This originally aired in April.
