Gina Prince Bythewood is a distinguished director dedicated to putting strong black characters in the forefront of her films. Which hasn’t always been easy, Bythewood shares with us the ongoing fight of her career to do exactly that.  One would say with the release of her new film, “The Woman King” now in theaters she is certainly winning, but she knows the fight continues.  Bythewood has been making films for the last twenty years, releasing her first feature, “Love and Basketball” in the year 2000.  One would also think that after such a masterpiece for the culture and film history she would have the support needed to make the films she wanted. Let’s just say that ignited the rage that fueled her to become the Director she is today.

The Woman King is a historical epic that is based on an alternate history of The Kingdom of Dahomey, one of the most powerful states in Africa in the 18th and 19th centuries, starring the Academy Award-winning actress, Viola Davis.  This is an absolute much watch, not only for the amazing talent, but when you watch it, you’re signing up to join the fight towards making sure more films like this get made.

NAKED SPORTS lives at the intersection of sports, politics, and culture. It is a niche groundbreaking interview-based show that dives deep into the lives of the game-changers who have helped shape our world. We explore how sports are interwoven not only into their personal lives; but the role they play in the global experience.  NAKED SPORTS is hosted by Cari Champion, a trailblazing broadcast journalist and television personality renowned for her pioneering contributions to sports media for women.

In each episode, this distinguished host sits down with, a diverse array of athletes, politicians, and cultural innovators who have left an indelible mark on their fields. Through intimate, unfiltered conversations, the show reveals the raw and vulnerable sides of their journeys—peeling back the layers to explore the defining moments, personal struggles, and transformative experiences that live at the intersection of sports, culture, and politics.

These conversations are thematically linked to live at the intersection and on this new season of NAKED SPORTS, we begin with a six-part docu-series, The Making of a Rivalry: Caitlin Clark vs. Angel Reese, in which Cari questions how this “rivalry” started. Does the necessity for success depend on a foil? In a time of divisiveness, are sports—more specifically the WNBA—a reflection of our country? Or will the greatness of two supernovas unite this country and heal race relations?

NAKED SPORTS guests will span varied backgrounds, providing diverse perspectives as we examine how sports play a crucial role in nearly every aspect of life.
