My sister the ER Doc deals with immense pressure in a calm way. The hospital is chaotic but she can handle it even when it smells like charred human flesh. And climbing the corporate ladder can be like battling your way through a jungle. But she can handle that, too. They called her bossy but she did some work on herself and made changes and now she’s the Chief Medical Officer of the Hoboken University Hospital. I’m so proud of her. I had to talk to her for the show. Touré Show Ep 6: Dr. Meika-How to Make It In Medicine December 20, 2017 Patreon.com/toureshow Instagram: @toureshow Twitter: @toure See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Safety is a heartwarming new football movie on Disney about a player at Clemson University, who plays safety, whose younger brother falls into trouble, forcing the player to step up and become the kid’s main caregiver. Which means he has to be a Division 1 football player and a college student and a father, all at once. A very hard balancing act. And it’s a true story. Safety was directed by my man Reggie Hudlin so we talk through every aspect of making this fun new family sports movie.

We dig deep into the work of August Wilson, the greatest African-American playwright of all time.

Tiffany Haddish just turned down the Grammys because they asked her to host for free. They must not know how long and hard Tiffany has worked to get here. Let’s throwback to my 2018 interview with Tiffany Haddish to remind everybody—she escaped homelessness, an horrific childhood and much more by dreaming and then thinking it into existence.

Van Jones was a superstar for CNN during the election that wouldn’t end and he’s a powerful communicator—I was really moved when he cried after the election was finally called for Biden.
