This week we are joined by actress Karen Pittman, who is known for her work in shows like "Yellowstone," “The Americans,” "Luke Cage," and, most recently, for her portrayal of Mia Jordan on Apple TV’s Golden Globe-nominated, “The Morning Show."

In our conversation, we talk about how Karen's Southern family roots impacted her parenting style, how her role as Mia Jordan evolved post #BlackLivesMatter, and why she believes it's important for Black women to prioritize love and romance.
We also talk about how she landed the role of Dr. Nya Wallace on the highly-anticipated HBO Max reboot of "Sex and the City," called, "And Just Like That..." And, last but not least, we discuss why there's "extra sweetness in being a Black woman."

The hit true-crime podcast The Letter is back for Season Two. Today, we’re dropping into your feed to offer you a sneak peek of this gripping and impactful story. 
On a winter morning in 1982, two young fathers were found shot to death in a van parked outside an upscale Utah restaurant.The killer soon confessed, but his story about what happened - and why he chose violence - would create more pain, conflict, and questions for the families left in the wake of the murders.
As the families of the men struggle to rebuild their lives, they face questions they never anticipated. Does everyone deserve a second chance? Who is forgiveness for? And if you can inherit trauma, can you also inherit forgiveness? Through their stories, we discover even the most personal decisions can unintentionally ripple through lives, through generations, even impacting the lives of people we’ve never met. From KSL Podcasts (Cold), Lemonada Media (Blind Plea) and WorkHouse Media.
