In honor of the recent awards, I wanted to look at the three people that have basically built and contributed to what Black Entertainment Television has become throughout the last forty plus years: Robert L. Johnson, Sheila Johnson, and Debra Lee. We will look at their lives before BET, the impact the channel held on their personal relationships, and how they were affected then and now.

You wouldn’t be able to have a white boy on your roster that feeds you pasta and lobster if it wasn’t for Mildred and Richard Loving. Fifty-six years ago on June 12, 1967, the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that interracial marriage could not be prohibited by state, which meant thousands and even millions of relationships to come could be legally bound.
In honor of it being Loving week, let’s look at the several marriages that were made possible, including those of Ron & Opal Perlman, Jordan Peele & Chelsea Peretti, Paula Patton & Robin Thicke, and Robert De Niro and his marriages to Diahnne Abbott and Grace Hightower and his relationship to Toukie Smith.

We know of Louis Armstrong the jazz musician but probably not about his four marriages. Over his lifetime, Louis was married to Daisy Parker, Lil Hardin, Alpha Smith, and Lucille Wilson.

One thing about boxer Jack Johnson, he was going to have a wife. And sometimes wives. And whives. He was an extremely interesting man as his love interests usually threatened his livelihood, but yet, he persisted. Please enjoy this episode about the seven women he called his wives.

Harry Belafonte was an acclaimed vocalist, actor, and activist. Since his passing on April 25, 2023, many have given their tributes and shared fond memories about Mr. Belafonte. When most reflect on his life, they see the successes… but fail to remember how a lot of this came at the expense of his family. Today, we’re going to look at Mr. Harry Belafonte in a different lens where we examine his closest relationships, marriages, and family.

We really just turned a TikTok video series into a full-fledged podcast. Girl! We did it, Joe!
To celebrate the inaugural Aisle Tell You What podcast episode (you have to go to YouTube for the visual version), I am giving you an episode y'all have requested many many times: the story of Sam Cooke + Bobby Womack. But let's go further than that -- let's just talk about the Cookes and the Womacks because these two families go together real bad.
But you tell me what you think: about this story but also about the first episode! And share it out, Aisle Runners/Aislanders (the name is still TBD, by the way.)
