The Tezlyn Figaro Podcast

New interview episodes of Straight Shot, No Chaser return in February and meanwhile we want to share an episode from our Black Effect Network sister show Holding Court with Eboni K. Williams titled "Separated" is NOT a relationship status and 2020 was a helluva year! In this episode attorney Eboni K. Williams and cultural observer Dustin Ross recap some of the biggest legal and cultural moments of the year and what got us through, prompting the question: can you sue the year 2020 for “alienation of affection” given how it separated us from loved ones often with devastating consequences? Then they get into courtroom news discussing the lawsuit against Kobe Bryant’s widow Vanessa Bryant, and developments in a lawsuit by the estate of Michael Jackson against HBO regarding the Leaving Neverland documentary. And Eboni shares a personal cautionary tale about what it means to be single and/or married.
