Hal's Hitlist

This week Hal & Sharlette are joined by another very special guest! This is Part I of the season finale and you don't want to miss it. Public speaker,  museum consultant, and public historian Kathe Hambrick joins the conversation and takes us through the rich history of NOLA. We laugh, learn and show the audience how to experience the city authentically. Listen for the full episode and stay tuned for Part II of the conversation next week!

This week Hal and Sharlette get into Prentice Penny's directorial debut with Uncorked,  "a film about achieving dreams, personal growth and open communication with family". Listen to the full episode as they discuss shared family experiences, wine preferences, and their BBQ favorites. 

Weekend Wind Down Episode!

This weekend Hal and Sharlette sit down with Dr. La-Doris McClaney for a candid conversation about her newly released book, "God, I Listened Too". Dr. McClaney is a real estate mogul, philanthropist, and author. Her life began humbly in Troy, Alabama. With hard work, education, and pure grit, she has amassed a real estate empire worth tens of millions of dollars.  Her life story is compelling and offers hope to anyone who believes in the power of God. Listen as she shares her journey of resilience in her upbringing and some life lessons you would not want to miss. 

Her book is now available on Amazon. 

In today's episode, Sharlette and Hal sit down to give us a brief history lesson on The Tulsa Race Massacre. As the 1921 incident remains one of the most violent racial attacks in US History. The destruction of "The Black Wall Street" should be common knowledge, and they close out the month to keep the conversation going as June 1st, 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of this event.

We have a more serious and timely topic this week, analyzing our democracy and voting rights in America. Start thinking about the midterm elections now, the earlier we have these conversations the better for the 2024 elections. 

In this week's episode, we're celebrating  Hitsville: The Making of Motown! The 2019 Showtime Documentary is a must-see, (Hal's watched it three times) and by the end of this episode, we hope you check it out for yourselves. Dir. by Benjamin and Gabe Turner, this film features rare and intimate footage from one of the greatest record labels we've ever seen along with its legendary talent. 

This week we are talking about The Black Church which some refer to as God's gift to the world we are going over our personal experiences, the PBS documentary, and more!
