Brace yourselves for the magnetic charm of Olly Sholotan, the actor who brought Carlton to life in "PeacockBel Air," as he joins us to swap tales of tackling New York's frosty embrace and the cultural cocktail that is the city's social scene. Ollys's candid revelations about his first winter, complete with tales of puffer jackets and the quintessential New Yorker's battle with parking, will have you chuckling and nodding in solidarity. But it's not all snow and street signs; we tap into the vibrant Brooklyn nightlife and the eclectic allure of Queens, setting the stage for a conversation as unpredictable as the boroughs themselves.
Our melodious journey through the world of Afrobeat and Broadway is where cultures collide and language dances to the beat of music. Olly recounts the intricate dance of mastering Spanish to honor the legendary Ibrahim Ferrer, offering a glimpse into the rigorous process of transforming into a character whose native tongue is not your own. We peel back the curtain on the intersection of Afro-Cuban rhythms with Broadway's sparkle, and the often underestimated power of words in music, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for the lyrics that move us.
But wait, there's more – from the nitty-gritty of black representation on screen to Olly's foray into music production, this episode is a treasure trove of introspection and inspiration. Ollie doesn't just share his artistic journey; he invites you into a conversation about the evolution of an artist and the pursuit of creative freedom. And just when you think you've heard it all, we spin some tales on "The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" and share a laugh over our DJing foibles. So tune in and get ready for an episode that dances to the rhythm of New York's heartbeat, with a side of personal anecdotes that are as memorable as they are enlightening.
