INTERVIEW ON THE PRICE OF BUSINESS SHOW, MEDIA PARTNER OF THIS SITE.

Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, interviewed filmmaker Warren D. Robinson (image below).

Price and Robinson discussed the debate this week between Trump and Biden. Oddly, it perfectly met expectations and yet was a complete surprise at the exact same time.

Price and Robinson have been saying that the debate would be profoundly influenced by the low expectations surrounding it. They knew that Biden might have a difficult time winning because people thought he should win big. So low expectations were definitely a factor. But Trump showed up fairly strong. He was surprisingly restrained, coherent, and maybe even Presidential. Biden, on the other hand, was ghostly pale, seemed to have more than just the mentioned “cold,” and ended up using some of Trump’s worse tactics to defend himself.

Trump was the winner in the eyes of almost everyone. It will be interesting to see what comes from this victory.

According to a statement, “Entertainment executive and producer, Warren D. Robinson believes that when organizations are willing to have open and honest conversations about race and their own bias they can commit to meaningful change. We have seen this recently in the form of Hollywood award shows, particularly, the Grammys and the Academy Awards (Oscars). The Recording Academy and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences have both taken concrete steps to diversify their ranks and address inherit biases in their voting processes. As a result we have the most diverse crop of award winners/nominees, respectively, we’ve ever seen. Contrast that with the scandal and production shutdown currently at CBS’s The Talk, which resulted because a co-host was unable to properly engage in a conversation about race, address her own bias and commit to doing better. ‘The key part to every conversation’ Warren says, ‘starts with listening. Listening and hearing are different and if you are unable to listen then you are unable to have a conversation.’
