Crissle West 0:41
It definitely is. And thank you indeed. Welcome back to the two niggas who talk shit and you know, have been doing it forever and Coffee. For whatever reason y'all let us. And what we do at the top of the program is we begin with some black excellence. This week I'm going to give black excellence over to A lovely woman by the name of Thea Froden. She was a um a body double in the film King Richard. for uh demi Was her name Demi Singleton? Yeah. Demi Singleton played uh Serena Williams, a young Serena Williams in the film King Richard with Will Smith. And uh yeah, Thea Thea Froden was her body double. And now she is playing her first ever US Open singles match. Uh, against the number two player in women's tennis.
Crissle West 1:42
This is a big deal for This is something that she's uh uh Clearly very prepared for. She's from Los Angeles. Um, and she won the USTA Billie Jean King Girls 18 national championships, which earned her a wild card onto the field. Um she was playing at the ten and under level in California, won singles, doubles, and mixed doubles and sectional titles, and she was uh invited to audition. For uh King Richard and that's where she got that part. She said I was on set for six months and I got to be alongside some really cool actors and obviously Will Smith and just the whole experience was super cool for me. And obviously to be able to play the double or the role of somebody that I look up to and I've always been inspired by was truly like a very special experience for me.
Kid Fury 2:36
Oh my goodness. I I'm ashamed of this actually, but it's just now occurring to me that obviously the doubles that they use in these movies are people who are very good at that sport. Like I don't know why. I'm like, I guess I just would have assumed that they trained some actress to, you know, hit the ball convincingly. And they're like, no, actually, let's go find black girls who does this, who are on their way to being the next generation of of bad bitches in tennis and and pluck them up out of that. So I just love that story and I love that I learned something new. Um But yeah, that's uh that's full circle if anything is.
Crissle West 3:17
In your defense, when I was reading this, I damn sure was like, Oh yeah, I guess they hate With somebody who's like who plays tennis.
Kid Fury 3:25
Yeah. Like, oh yeah, okay, yeah. Why would it be some actress when you could get a girl who actually, you know, plays this game so that's like it would save time. Yeah. Mm-hmm. I've been wa have you been watching the US Open?
Crissle West 3:39
I haven't.
Kid Fury 3:40
Baby, I still don't know what's going on. Really? I mean I keep trying with tennis, but I never know when it's over. It feels like you you gotta win. I don't know, is it like best of five or something? Best of seven. You gotta win hella matches. And then that final point, you gotta score like three times in a row or some shit before they let you win for real. I'm like, oh my god, let me call Amber Chuck.
Crissle West 4:03

Kid Fury 4:08

Football. N now I have to disagree. Why? American football.
Crissle West 4:22
Yes.
Kid Fury 4:23

Kid Fury 4:33
the
Crissle West 4:34
Yards, stopping, okay, multiple different um positions. Yeah, you have so much going on on a football field at the same time. Gotcha. Then scoring is works a specific way, but then if you don't score, here's this big why. Now that's a di like girl. I act like American football don't have a ton of moving parts.
Kid Fury 4:58
Yes. So it's busier for sure. What's going on the field is a lot, but tennis is just like, when is it actually over? I can't tell. But I was, you know, I was up Not I don't want to say all night being dramatic, but they had Naomi Osaka come out the other night at like eleven thirty p.m.
