ATLANTA (AP) - When Tyler Perry told the audience at the 2019 BET Awards that “while you’re fighting for a seat at the table, I’ll be down in Atlanta building my own,” Sheletta Brundidge was listening. Brundidge is a producer at WCCO Radio in Minneapolis and host of the Two Haute Mamas podcast. In a Twitter message, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution said Brundidge recalled Perry's advice and the result is the podcast platform SHEletta Makes Me Laugh. Among the podcasts are “J.E.T. Setting Divas,” with globe-trotting travelers Jeanette, Evette and Tina; and “Mommy & Me,”which Brundidge does with her 13-year-old son, Andrew.
