Amanda Seales joins Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay for a conversation full of raw honesty about her life, career, and personal journey. Opening up about her Autism Spectrum Disorder diagnosis, Amanda discusses the challenges she's faced due to misconceptions about her personality, emphasizing her literalness and the difficulties it can create in social interactions. Reflecting on her upbringing, Amanda credits her supportive mother for accepting her and providing a strong foundation, despite societal norms. Then, Amanda shares her childhood memories of working for Disney and Nickelodeon, explaining how her experiences were unlike those depicted on the documentary All Quiet on Set, despite facing racism from other children. Amanda opens up about the complexities of navigating academia, like how she almost faced expulsion based on the accusations of another student which forced her to create her own major. Amanda comments on the growing number of hip-hop beefs, how they are good for the genre if they force performers to elevate their music, and says Nas won his beef vs Jay-Z. Amanda remarks on why her time with Floetry wasn’t always the smoothest which is punctuated by her being aired out on the Wendy Williams Show.

1:33:41 Amanda recounts how she got her start in radio as a result of her poetry, having her first interview while working for Sirius be of OutKast, and how industry politics involving Jay-Z and Pusha T ultimately got her fired from Sirius.

1:48:06 Continuing on the subject of industry politics, Amanda shares the time she was kicked out of the Black Emmy’s party because Issa Rae’s publicist wanted her gone, which led to a scuffle and confusion. Amanda goes further into the tumultuous relationship she’s had with Issa Rae’s publicist over the years and how it’s spilled over into her work on Insecure, which created a work environment that ultimately has led Amanda to disagree with Lil Rel’s opinion that Issa creates environments that empower women. Amanda also touches on other sets and productions like Bring the Funny, The Real, hosting the BET Awards during COVID, and working with Kevin Hart.

2:47:18 Amanda also discusses Queen Latifah coming to her defense, Candace Owens, Emmanuel Acho’s comments about Angel Reese, and how her expectations for dating differ drastically from Shannon’s.

  • Being called the “N” word by CHILDREN, qualifies as racism. They didn’t call EACH OTHER the same name; they knew who to direct the word to, Shannon.
  • @roki5337
    Amanda's vocabulary is extensive! I love it. I have learned a lot of new words watching this.
  • I love Amanda's honesty. They hate o her because she is candid, confident, honest and pro-empowering blackness.
  • @lovedove7000
    Not hugging people who don’t deserve a hug will never be petty.
  • @xTurboATL
    Racism is learned behavior by children, Amanda is actually correct with her assessment
  • @Jordan98111
    I’m 40. And there’s nothing like the confidence that Amanda carries. It feels so liberating knowing who you are and to walk in that truth. ❤.
  • @CeeYa1989
    I think my perspective on Amand and Shannon changed multiple times during this discussion. Amanda was tough, then accepting. Shannon was confrontational, then understanding. They come from 2 different worlds, and its awesome when different worlds share the same orbit without colliding into each other.
  • @ChessMandingo
    The stare she gave when he was defending the white teacher is priceless
  • @istrouma97
    Kids being taught to not speak up against adults is the main reason so many kids were molested and continued to be due to the fear of being molded to not speak up for themselves. I teach my daughter that you have the right to speak up for yourself as long as it’s done respectfully, even if it’s against me.
  • Thank you Unk for inviting Amanda in for a conversation. I went in not knowing much about her and what I did know, I didn’t like. It goes to show that it pays high dividends when you actually can sit down with someone for a spell and get to know them. Thank you again and thank you Amanda for being willing to.🥰
  • @MrKamawe
    Being authentic in inauthentic spaces can really have you thinking you are crazy but eventually understanding that will liberate you in ways you never imagined.
  • @ladietee2824
    As a POC educator, CHILDREN CAN BE AND ARE RACIST. It's a LEARNED mentality
  • @cco7174
    Adults can talk without agreeing on every topic.
  • Amanda guided this interview. She made sure she finished her stories and her current work was known. I see her in a new light. I enjoyed this interview.
  • Growing up in the deep South our teachers are often our first examples of Racism as a child.
  • @sfr7169
    If she was 10 years old and was able to recognize the other kids were wrong for callimg her the N word, then the other 10 year olds should have the capability to understand that them saying the word was wrong and excuses shouldn't be made for them.
  • @Suitednlooted
    Amanda is one of those people you either love or hate. Personally, she isn’t my cup of tea. I find her to be at a 10 at all times and I imagine a lot of people walk around eggshells with her. However, I do appreciate how she lives in her truth and sticks to her beliefs. It takes a lot of courage to be true to who you are in today’s time.
  • @BonnieBea
    I like how she didn’t allow anyone to tell her narrative. One thing you can’t do is correct someone on their perceived experience even if you see it from a different perspective, that is still their truth. Shout out to Shay for coming with these interviews. People feel so comfortable to share so much with him too
