I'm your host for the evening. My name is Mike.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Next to me, I have Spikes Spike, I have Rod.
Next to Rod, I have Ken, and we are talking
about the best performance of actors actresses. And we've covered
these before. I can't remember who the other one we
did were Jamie Fox, so I think that's the only
(00:34):
other one in this series so far. But today we
are talking about Viola Davis. We're gonna be talking about
the best performances of Viola Davis.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Now, does everybody just have one? Is that how we're
doing this?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Because I can't remember how he did Jamie Fox.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I brought three. I didn't know if we would.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
I didn't know how y'all do three, because I don't
think I've been on anyone. The first one.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Did three, but I spect I think one will get taken.
I think, but I I can't have a lot. I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
I did three two real quick, going back to y'all
believe that Jamie Fox performance.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Went on that list for ray?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Was that two thousands?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
It came out? Oh four? Oh wow? That sucked up?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
You were just I was trying to think of that.
I was like, something is missing talking about the Ringer
list by the ring A conversation.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the biggest miss what's his name?
Speaker 2 (01:25):
The fucking basketball guy Kevin Durant is on there, but
Jamie Fox is.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, who did I say? Difference both kevins. That was
bothered me. I couldn't thought, was like some miss I
do have a question? Was this difficult? It was for
me because it wasn't for me.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Actually, I haven't written most of her films.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
There were three performances. It just popped out to the
top of my head. Oh really, okay, it was.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
It was difficult for me trying to find one some
movies that I've seen and then and remembering them.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I thought she had more than what she had.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I will say that I didn't think that too, with
her name is as big as it is, Like, I
thought she had more performances than then I saw when I.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Looked up for movies.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, so I was like, and I guess, like, sometimes
I think she's not in good movies, but her performances
are still.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
That's what I noticed too. That's what it is like
doing the research.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
For this, Like yeah, so okay, well, it wasn't me,
just maybe more in supporting roles. But yeah, there was
some movies I haven't even seen of her. That's why
I was a little bit more. That was my problem.
I sat down and I looked at her filmography. I'm like,
I ain't seen none of this ship, none of this ship.
I've seen Women King and I've seen Peacemaker. That's about it.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
That's funny.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I thought, I this is fucked up, and I feel
almost bad for this. But I got her confused with
the who's the lady?
Speaker 5 (02:49):
Isn't that's in my I knows you got confuse. It's
another it's another black actress that they they're similar, but
it's not the.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
You know they are? Who is the woman that looked
like Ola Davis woman.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
From not her? No, she does not, like I tell you.
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (03:12):
Bro, That's who I was thinking of this whole time,
and I was like, oh, ship, that's not her.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
She got some good performances. Because I was gonna say,
ma Afroter, who they similar? Name movies? I can look
her up, broa No kids, two different people? Man? No,
(03:37):
don't they looking like I see? Yeah? They do? Favorite Yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
And orgin you black or something, but no girls, Mama,
that got ran off by the truck.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
I even know that either way.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Either way shocked Octavia, Spencer and Alf for water bro.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I look like I take you Spencer.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
She don't look like her, but they favor in some way.
I don't know how, but they all right. So spoiler alert,
I ain't got none. So I'm hosting this bitch. So
we're gonna start. We're gonna start with Spike. Spike, go
ahead and give us.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Your first one. I'm gonna take the easiest went off
the board and go with The Help.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Oh watched that movie. It's so great. It's a help.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
She played, I mean, she played the typical yeah right,
trying to find a way to put it, but she
did it well and you could tell like even that
character wouldn't have jumped off the page like she made
a jump off the page.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It was a real typical character. She just did a
really good job.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
So I've never seen The Help, so that was not
the one.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Like, no, I would.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I don't like you don't like.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
People talk holly about it.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
I saw when I was looking at but I have
not it ain't seen the movies, so it did not
make my listna as movie.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, it's an average movie. That's not the movie.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
I've only seen maybe a couple of her films, and
one of them she definitely stood out as an incredible actress.
But that was not the one. So Rob, let me
see if you pick it, what's what's what's your what's
your first pick?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
My first pick is my Rainie. He's not the one.
I was gonna say that.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Next if he if Ken don't see it, but I
don't think he had seen this movie.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, my Rainie is y'all remember this one, Black Bottom. Yeah,
I thought she killed that, like, like, she was absolutely
amazing in that, especially when.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
You realize that she actually played a real person.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yeah, she was like sweating the whole movie.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I don't remember her parent that one. You said you
don't remember. I do remember it, but I don't remember
her performance. Oh it was so good Man, Yeah, her
and Black Panther.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Uh Chack Bozman Chaick Boseman.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
You remember him in it either? I do?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Okay, Yeah, yeah that was good Man. That was a
really good performance from her. So it's actually and that
for one say, like all the ones I have made
my top five list.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
So and I didn't even realize that.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
But yeah, my brain is black Bottom was the one,
my first one. But I agree with the help, I'm
not I'm gonna go with Antoine Fisher, Okay, Naomi would.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Be proud, So maybe I need to throw off the
one that I have because this is weird.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, she was.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
She was into Antoine Fish, bron Bro, she nail that ship.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
She was the mama remember called him nigga something like that. Bro. Yes,
I forgot that was even her. Yes, yeah, yeah, that's
one of her first ones.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
I think always stand out to be in that movie,
very very very good.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah see if I okay, all right, what's your pick? Fences? Yeah, yeah,
I haven't watched yet. I figured I'm not hear to
watch it. I heard it. I don't know if you
would like it. You don't think like I don't know,
I don't know. It's just a yeah, I don't like
traumas like that.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, that's what I'm It's based off of play, which
is why it looks like a player.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yeah, it's kind of like a play. But she heard
it was good though. Yeah, she killed it. She I
want to say she.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
She out acted Denzil. Yeah yeah, yeah, like she made
Denzel sit down like she was in her.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Bad Yeah that's what that snutty ass, crying ass picture
it was.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
When it was on the list, I was like, oh, yeah,
maybe I need to watch the movie. Heard about it, right, Yeah, yeah,
everybody talks about it, okay, and you know, I like Denzel.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I just I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
It's a couple of movies that it's here that I
haven't watched it he's done lately.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, I feel I feel I see
why you're surprised because it's not about the movie, it's
about her performance.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, and so yeah, I didn't give it about the
movie her performance.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
You can't.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Yeah, crazy that it's a version of the play on
YouTube whatever. You're showing the whole thing and James ro
Jones playing the character that Denzel play.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh my god, he did. Who played her her part?
Speaker 4 (08:00):
I don't know, but James Jones, James Jones was was
an incredible actor.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
He really was.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
All r I p to him, But all right, fences.
Finally somebody says it, Rob, what's your second pick? My
second one is Woman King. I liked it Woman King.
If y'all remember it was in my top five, know
everybody's like, how the hell this major top five? But
I really I really.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Enjoyed Woman King Man that year. I don't know it
just I don't know. I really enjoyed that movie. List Okay, yeah,
I thought she was good.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I can't remember. I told you by issue. That's crazy.
I had to pick a before she was good.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
She was got to man, she was I got three,
but Woman king was one of the three.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
She was good. I don't care because she convinced y'all.
She really had abs like that. I ain't even paying
attentional abs. Yes you did, bro. I was trying to
wear a belly shirt for the whole movie. I was
trying to remember the movie. I was like, Okay, I
think she was good in that.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Right, had a sod or something, big knife something.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I was trying to separate the movie the performance from
the movie. I'm actual the movie.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
The only part I didn't like about the movie was
the little French guy or whatever that that I don't remember. Yeah,
that's the only part I didn't like about the movie.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
But yeah, I liked it all right.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
So you got Woman King I mean I was I
saw in G twenty, but it was just some stereos.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
It's like an action.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
It's hard greater performance than that, but again, yeah, that's
what I'm anyway, So that's that would have.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Been sacrificing that one for your second one.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yeah, we'll share that one, all right, we run it
back to the opposite way. Then what's your third? Then?
How to get Away with murder?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Damn?
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Yeah, that's probably her best man and at least he show.
I haven't finished it though, y'all finished it, But.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
It's good her performance specific and she's really good.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I get that confused with Scandal. No, it's not that.
This is a serious show. Yeah, a little bit. What's
more serious than Scandal? Yeah? I do like Scanner, but
it's just way right. It's made by the same person.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
What it is.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I don't know if it's part of shandling. I think
Shonda did. I think you might be right either way.
It ain't that. It's not no, no, no, no like that.
It's just like a murder mystery.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
But for a whole show ship for six Yeah, they
find they found a way to make it intrigues a.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Law professor, so it's gonna be different cases that they're
trying to think.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh, I thought it was the same. I'm about to say, bro,
I'm not about to here. She must not be good.
If she's trying to figure out for six seasons who
the murder was for six.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Seasons, is crazy. All Right, I'm gonna give it a shot.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yeah, I've been waning. I've been meaning to finish it
at some point too. I am the same because then.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
We have a topic like that shows that we didn't
finish or something like that. I thought, somebody, that is
a topic.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
That's a good topic though, but no, yeah, yeah, series whenever.
I don't have a list, but I have a few.
I even tried to go back to one of them
when I was out of town. I was like, bro,
I'm not doing this, uh grotesquery. It's an f X
show with what's her name, Needy something, Needy Parks or
Needy Keeks black.

I was about to look it up.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yes, that ship effect.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
It's a horror show too, and she's playing like an
alcoholic detective. I just can't do that interesting.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
The kills are amazing.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's her that's the problem. And she got a yeah,
not a good pick. She was not a good pick
at all. Okay, so all right, had to get away
with Murder that was yours.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I got another one. I got one one ahead, And
this is another one of my top films. It's Air.

she played with Michael Jordan's mom.
Speaker 1 (12:03):

Speaker 2 (00:13):
Next to me, I have Spikes Spike, I have Rod.
Next to Rod, I have Ken, and we are talking
about the best performance of actors actresses. And we've covered
these before. I can't remember who the other one we
did were Jamie Fox, so I think that's the only
(00:34):
other one in this series so far. But today we
are talking about Viola Davis. We're gonna be talking about
the best performances of Viola Davis.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Now, does everybody just have one? Is that how we're
doing this?
Speaker 2 (00:45):
Because I can't remember how he did Jamie Fox.
Speaker 1 (00:47):
I brought three. I didn't know if we would.
Speaker 3 (00:48):
I didn't know how y'all do three, because I don't
think I've been on anyone. The first one.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
Did three, but I spect I think one will get taken.
I think, but I I can't have a lot. I mean.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
I did three two real quick, going back to y'all
believe that Jamie Fox performance.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
Went on that list for ray?
Speaker 2 (01:10):
Was that two thousands?
Speaker 1 (01:11):
It came out? Oh four? Oh wow? That sucked up?
Speaker 2 (01:16):
You were just I was trying to think of that.
I was like, something is missing talking about the Ringer
list by the ring A conversation.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, that's the biggest miss what's his name?
Speaker 2 (01:25):
The fucking basketball guy Kevin Durant is on there, but
Jamie Fox is.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, who did I say? Difference both kevins. That was
bothered me. I couldn't thought, was like some miss I
do have a question? Was this difficult? It was for
me because it wasn't for me.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Actually, I haven't written most of her films.
Speaker 1 (01:49):
There were three performances. It just popped out to the
top of my head. Oh really, okay, it was.
Speaker 5 (01:53):
It was difficult for me trying to find one some
movies that I've seen and then and remembering them.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
I thought she had more than what she had.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
I will say that I didn't think that too, with
her name is as big as it is, Like, I
thought she had more performances than then I saw when I.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Looked up for movies.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Yeah, so I was like, and I guess, like, sometimes
I think she's not in good movies, but her performances
are still.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
That's what I noticed too. That's what it is like
doing the research.
Speaker 5 (02:21):
For this, Like yeah, so okay, well, it wasn't me,
just maybe more in supporting roles. But yeah, there was
some movies I haven't even seen of her. That's why
I was a little bit more. That was my problem.
I sat down and I looked at her filmography. I'm like,

I don't know how, but they all right. So spoiler alert,
I ain't got none. So I'm hosting this bitch. So
we're gonna start. We're gonna start with Spike. Spike, go
ahead and give us.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Your first one. I'm gonna take the easiest went off
the board and go with The Help.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Oh watched that movie. It's so great. It's a help.
Speaker 4 (04:23):
She played, I mean, she played the typical yeah right,
trying to find a way to put it, but she
did it well and you could tell like even that
character wouldn't have jumped off the page like she made
a jump off the page.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
It was a real typical character. She just did a
really good job.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
So I've never seen The Help, so that was not
the one.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Like, no, I would.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
I don't like you don't like.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
People talk holly about it.
Speaker 5 (04:50):
I saw when I was looking at but I have
not it ain't seen the movies, so it did not
make my listna as movie.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, it's an average movie. That's not the movie.
Speaker 2 (04:59):
I've only seen maybe a couple of her films, and
one of them she definitely stood out as an incredible actress.
But that was not the one. So Rob, let me
see if you pick it, what's what's what's your what's
your first pick?
Speaker 1 (05:12):
My first pick is my Rainie. He's not the one.
I was gonna say that.
Speaker 4 (05:18):
Next if he if Ken don't see it, but I
don't think he had seen this movie.
Speaker 3 (05:22):
Yeah, my Rainie is y'all remember this one, Black Bottom. Yeah,
I thought she killed that, like, like, she was absolutely
amazing in that, especially when.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
You realize that she actually played a real person.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
Yeah, she was like sweating the whole movie.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
I don't remember her parent that one. You said you
don't remember. I do remember it, but I don't remember
her performance. Oh it was so good Man, Yeah, her
and Black Panther.
Speaker 2 (05:49):
Uh Chack Bozman Chaick Boseman.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
You remember him in it either? I do?
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Okay, Yeah, yeah that was good Man. That was a
really good performance from her. So it's actually and that
for one say, like all the ones I have made
my top five list.
Speaker 1 (06:02):
So and I didn't even realize that.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
But yeah, my brain is black Bottom was the one,
my first one. But I agree with the help, I'm
not I'm gonna go with Antoine Fisher, Okay, Naomi would.
Speaker 2 (06:18):
Be proud, So maybe I need to throw off the
one that I have because this is weird.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, she was.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
She was into Antoine Fish, bron Bro, she nail that ship.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
She was the mama remember called him nigga something like that. Bro. Yes,
I forgot that was even her. Yes, yeah, yeah, that's
one of her first ones.
Speaker 5 (06:38):
I think always stand out to be in that movie,
very very very good.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yeah see if I okay, all right, what's your pick? Fences? Yeah, yeah,
I haven't watched yet. I figured I'm not hear to
watch it. I heard it. I don't know if you
would like it. You don't think like I don't know,
I don't know. It's just a yeah, I don't like
traumas like that.
Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, that's what I'm It's based off of play, which
is why it looks like a player.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Yeah, it's kind of like a play. But she heard
it was good though. Yeah, she killed it. She I
want to say she.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
She out acted Denzil. Yeah yeah, yeah, like she made
Denzel sit down like she was in her.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
Bad Yeah that's what that snutty ass, crying ass picture
it was.
Speaker 5 (07:21):
When it was on the list, I was like, oh, yeah,
maybe I need to watch the movie. Heard about it, right, Yeah, yeah,
everybody talks about it, okay, and you know, I like Denzel.
Speaker 1 (07:31):
I just I don't know.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
It's a couple of movies that it's here that I
haven't watched it he's done lately.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Yeah, I guess, yeah, I feel I feel I see
why you're surprised because it's not about the movie, it's
about her performance.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, and so yeah, I didn't give it about the
movie her performance.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
You can't.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Yeah, crazy that it's a version of the play on
YouTube whatever. You're showing the whole thing and James ro
Jones playing the character that Denzel play.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Oh my god, he did. Who played her her part?
Speaker 4 (08:00):
I don't know, but James Jones, James Jones was was
an incredible actor.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
He really was.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
All r I p to him, But all right, fences.
Finally somebody says it, Rob, what's your second pick? My
second one is Woman King. I liked it Woman King.
If y'all remember it was in my top five, know
everybody's like, how the hell this major top five? But
I really I really.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
Enjoyed Woman King Man that year. I don't know it
just I don't know. I really enjoyed that movie. List Okay, yeah,
I thought she was good.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
I can't remember. I told you by issue. That's crazy.
I had to pick a before she was good.
Speaker 5 (08:41):
She was got to man, she was I got three,
but Woman king was one of the three.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
She was good. I don't care because she convinced y'all.
She really had abs like that. I ain't even paying
attentional abs. Yes you did, bro. I was trying to
wear a belly shirt for the whole movie. I was
trying to remember the movie. I was like, Okay, I
think she was good in that.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
Right, had a sod or something, big knife something.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I was trying to separate the movie the performance from
the movie. I'm actual the movie.
Speaker 3 (09:11):
The only part I didn't like about the movie was
the little French guy or whatever that that I don't remember. Yeah,
that's the only part I didn't like about the movie.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
But yeah, I liked it all right.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
So you got Woman King I mean I was I
saw in G twenty, but it was just some stereos.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
It's like an action.
Speaker 5 (09:27):
It's hard greater performance than that, but again, yeah, that's
what I'm anyway, So that's that would have.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
Been sacrificing that one for your second one.
Speaker 1 (09:35):
Yeah, we'll share that one, all right, we run it
back to the opposite way. Then what's your third? Then?
How to get Away with murder?
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Damn?
Speaker 3 (09:45):
Yeah, that's probably her best man and at least he show.
I haven't finished it though, y'all finished it, But.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
It's good her performance specific and she's really good.
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I get that confused with Scandal. No, it's not that.
This is a serious show. Yeah, a little bit. What's
more serious than Scandal? Yeah? I do like Scanner, but
it's just way right. It's made by the same person.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
What it is.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
I don't know if it's part of shandling. I think
Shonda did. I think you might be right either way.
It ain't that. It's not no, no, no, no like that.
It's just like a murder mystery.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
But for a whole show ship for six Yeah, they
find they found a way to make it intrigues a.
Speaker 4 (10:31):
Law professor, so it's gonna be different cases that they're
trying to think.
Speaker 2 (10:34):
Oh, I thought it was the same. I'm about to say, bro,
I'm not about to here. She must not be good.
If she's trying to figure out for six seasons who
the murder was for six.
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Seasons, is crazy. All Right, I'm gonna give it a shot.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
Yeah, I've been waning. I've been meaning to finish it
at some point too. I am the same because then.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
We have a topic like that shows that we didn't
finish or something like that. I thought, somebody, that is
a topic.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
That's a good topic though, but no, yeah, yeah, series whenever.
I don't have a list, but I have a few.
I even tried to go back to one of them
when I was out of town. I was like, bro,
I'm not doing this, uh grotesquery. It's an f X
show with what's her name, Needy something, Needy Parks or
Needy Keeks black.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
Lady I'm talking about.
Speaker 2 (11:25):
I was about to look it up.
Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yes, that ship effect.
Speaker 2 (11:30):
It's a horror show too, and she's playing like an
alcoholic detective. I just can't do that interesting.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
The kills are amazing.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
It's her that's the problem. And she got a yeah,
not a good pick. She was not a good pick
at all. Okay, so all right, had to get away
with Murder that was yours.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I got another one. I got one one ahead, And
this is another one of my top films. It's Air.
