Emergency Podcast: Oprah and Viola
As she does from time to time, Oprah has produced a high-profile interview special — this time with actress Viola Davis, which just dropped as a special on Netflix.
Kellie and Leah watched it and immediately shared their thoughts, why Oprah chose Viola as her latest interview subject, and what these two powerful women mean for the culture today.
Even if you haven’t watch the special, join us as we talk about Oprah and Viola!
We’ll be back on Wednesday with another fresh episode.
