On this week’s episode, Donny is joined by actor, singer, and current star of POTUS on Broadway, the multifaceted, Vanessa Williams. Donny and Vanessa start at the beginning by discussing the courage Vanessa has maintained from obstacles in her childhood, her time as Miss America, and her experiences with racism in her career and home state of New York. Also, Vanessa shares what it's like working on POTUS with an all-female cast and director and how she’s kept her fortitude and adventurous spirit throughout her life. But first, Donny dives into this week's Brands of the Week, dishing out his 'ups' and 'downs' to names like Josh Hawley, Vince McMahon, Pat Benatar, and Toys 'R' Us, among many others.
