Support Black Showbusiness! with Preston Mitchum

This week on Undomesticated, Candiace is flying solo, and she welcomes her good friend Preston Mitchum to the podcast. The writer, attorney and Summer House: Martha's Vineyard alum breaks down his Essence op-ed on the state of Black reality TV. Candiace and Preston hold nothing back, talking about everything from "the silent pause," to the lack of divestment in Black shows, and the importance of having a producer you can trust on set. "Plus, Nobody Asked Me, But…" is back with some shade for armchair lawyers, and some love for the young Black folks taking over reality TV. Grab some wine and enjoy the discourse. There are no sour grapes over here!
