Daveed Diggs is an actor who blew up in Hamilton. Now he’s starring in a movie he wrote with his friend, a movie that took ten years to write. It’s Blindspotting. It’s fantastic.

The cable news star is brilliant, funny, and really smart. This is a long, really open conversation which gets into his show and the big mistake I think he made while doing the show. Kamau loves criticism! That goes over well. Also: how it was he got onto CNN and how he made the most of being mentored by Chris Rock. I love Kamau. Watch his show United Shades of America on CNN.

The tennis star was once #4 in the world and #1 in America with wins over Federer and Nadal. But what’s most amazing is that he played his best tennis after having breaking his neck in a freak injury and contracting shingles and losing his dad—all in one year. He’s tough, smart (Harvard), humble, and cool. And the best Black male player since Arthur Ashe. I interviewed him at the tennis club where I grew up, Sportsmen’s Tennis Club in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in front of a few hundred people. James is an amazing person. It’s really interesting to see how he thinks. Let me know what you think of this interview. I’m on Twitter @toure. Toure Show Ep 36 James Blake: I Beat Federer Host & Writer: Toure Producer: Chris Colbert Assistants: William Jolley, Jason Wallace, and Candid Nicole Photographer: Chuck Marcus Studio: The Young Turks See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.Learn more about your ad choices.

He’s the hysterical comic you’ve seen on Chappelle’s Show and The Wire. And he’s a new Dad! Here he talks about how to be funny, how to make it as a comic, how to teach your kid to be funny, and he licks shots at Faizon Love for saying Chappelle’s Show wasn’t funny. Which isn’t funny. What?!? Let me know what you think!

Two current NYPD officers on why the police function the way they do. This conversation really changed my mind about the way policing really works. I didn’t really understand the police until this interview. Policing is not about protecting and serving. It’s about revenue collection. And the bosses would rather cops make arrests than stop crime because arrests are quantifiable. Let me know what you think. Twitter: @toure.

He’s one of funniest actors on TV. One of the stars of The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt on Netflix, he made that incredible Lemonade parody where he’s stomping down the street in the yellow dress with a baseball bat. It’s hysterical. He’s an amazing actor and I tried to get inside his philosophy about acting. Let me know what you think! Twitter: @toure.
