  • S6 EP2: Olly Sholotan on Brotherhood, Identity, and What Bel-Air Changed in Him

    S6 EP2: Olly Sholotan on Brotherhood, Identity, and What Bel-Air Changed in Him
    2026/01/14
    In this episode, host NeAndre Broussard sits down with Olly Sholotan for a conversation that’s equal parts reflective and forward-looking—about identity, brotherhood, artistic growth, and the kind of life lessons you don’t fully understand until you’re looking back. Olly shares how the experience of being on a groundbreaking show shaped him beyond the camera: becoming a better friend, son, and creative. He talks about the moments that made the journey feel surreal, the scenes that hit hardest emotionally, and the mindset shift that helped him stop living only for outcomes and start valuing the process.Together they explore: Life “understood backwards” and why the present moment matters more than we think The emotional truth behind the final season: improvised moments that were barely acting The reality of cultural isolation—and how it informed Olly’s portrayal and perspective Why joy and grief can exist together in the same scene, the same day, the same season How brotherhood shows up onscreen when it’s real offscreen Navigating an industry that still requires Black artists to be “twice as good” to be considered Why Olly’s current goal is simple: show up every day and sharpen the craft If you’ve ever felt like time moved too fast, or you’ve watched a chapter close and wondered what’s next, this is your reminder: you don’t have to have it all figured out—you just have to keep showing up.📌 Share this with someone who needs encouragement to keep going, keep growing, and keep showing up.👍🏾 Like, ✍🏾 comment, and 🔔 subscribe for more conversations that pour back into our people.Follow Olly Sholotan:Instagram: instagram.com/ollysholotanFollow Black Menswear:Instagram: instagram.com/blackmenswearX / Twitter: x.com/blackmenswearFacebook: facebook.com/BlackMenswearWebsite: blackmenswear.com#OllySholotan #BelAir #BlackMenswear #Brotherhood #Identity #BlackActors #CreativeJourney #ShowUpEveryDay #WeGonBeAlright Learn more about your ad choices.

    Jimmy Akingbola on Bel-Air, Foster Care & Becoming Geoffrey
    2025/12/10
    In this episode, host NeAndre Broussard—founder and CEO of Black Menswear—sits down with actor Jimmy Akingbola to peel back the layers on his real-life foster care story, his journey from East London stages to Hollywood screens, and what it means to dare to dream when the odds are stacked against you. From earning £400 a week doing plays to becoming part of the Bel-Air legacy, Jimmy shares how faith, resilience, and craft shaped the man behind one of TV’s coldest “fixers.” In this conversation, they unpack: Growing up in UK foster care and why he wouldn’t change his story The full-circle connection between Bel-Air and the biggest “care story” in TV history Redefining Geoffrey: not “black help,” but brotherhood, family, and quiet power Vulnerability as a superpower—why Black men need to see each other cry and heal The difference between UK and US acting scenes (stage roots vs screen fame) Rejection, resilience, and why getting to “the last two” is a sign you’re close Craft over clout: doing the work, knowing your writers, and treating acting like a real job Why suits over streetwear still wins—and how style became part of Geoffrey's storytelling If you’ve ever questioned your path, battled “no” after “no,” or wondered if your story is too messy to be used for something great, this episode is a reminder: you are enough, you are loved, and your dream is still valid. 📌 Share this with a Black man who needs encouragement to keep going—especially the one who’s ready to give up on his dream. 👍🏾 Like, ✍🏾 comment, and 🔔 subscribe for more conversations that pour back into our people.
