Not only did I recently celebrate the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I also celebrated the birthday of the first “Rolonda” Show, which launched on January 18, 1994. (It was supposed to have launched on the 17th, but was pre-empted nationwide by the Northridge, CA earthquake coverage.) Being part-owner, host and Supervising Producer of my own internationally syndicated TV talk show, produced by my Watts Works Productions and King World, was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Dr. King’s lessons rang in my ear the day a KKK leader used the “N” word on my talk show…

Check out my day job with Judge Joe Brown. Have you heard this voice on TV or radio before? Working with Joe is an honor and there is never a boring day in Joe-ville! Going on a decade of incredible shows, (half of that with me!)—I am proud to represent Judge Joe with my big mouth! LOL Check us out..

When we launched The Rolonda Show in January of 1994, I came onto the talk show scene midseason and there were dozens of talkers already on TV. We had to do something to burst through the crowd. King World’s brilliant promo department came up with this crowd pleaser. It remains by favorite promo of all time.
