one tells us what to cover how long the coverage for how to say it that's the beauty of archie america. we give both sides we hear from both sides and we question more that's. not letting anything get in your way to bring it home to the american people. you guys i made a professional is powerpoint to show you how artsy america fits into the greater media landscape is not all laughter all right but we are a solid alternative to the bullshit we don't skew liberal or conservative and as you can see his bar graph we don't skew the facts either the talking head lefties talking head righties oh there you go above it all to look at world artsy americans in the spotlight now every leaf i have no idea how to classify as an actually took me way more time than i care to admit. to cut. costs to cut.

it. on larry king now mountain jamal warner it's not always about that particular job it's really an opportunity just to kind of show you and he made i get that job but he made me two different people versus o.j. i actually read for chris darden as an actor and as a director i have the same sensibilities there through our fight scenes are the battles of the politics the music and the potions. of creative expression that really. plus a deal of the says that she's the toughest. because this could be difficult for you

yet. because we watch someone who you know and love goes through what he's going through it's difficult not to. you know not to feel it's all next on larry king. although larry king our special guest is malcolm jo mall water the emmy nominated grammy winning actor director musician and poet he's known for malcolm and eddie the cars we show and more recently suits major crimes in american crime story and something we appeared in together the people versus o.j. simpson on the only one that will play himself malcolm stars in ten days in the valley of premier as october first on a.b.c.

the titles intriguing snot about a musician i have. about battle and that's what i mean what is ten days in the vows it's a. i'd say a suspense. thriller care would see that cedric plays a any second producer of a cop show and she gets a lot. her information from a consultant who is giving her very real stories of police corruption and she is putting those very real stories in this cop show. her daughter goes missing her seven year old daughter and she needs the cops to help her find her daughter so there's a you know a fine line the siesta navigate between getting her art out and you know getting. the help she needs from the cops as she continued to work while the daughter was missing. if i told you that i'll tell you part of the play i'm actually the cold

executive producer of the cop show and you know one of the things about really this show all of the characters are suspect i mean really i know a.b.c. already has a show called secrets and lies but this show after having watched the episode this show could very well be called secrets and lies too because every character yourself yet. oh well if it's so if it's a big hit could it run for four years girl become eleven i'm not sure i'm not sure where they would go in the second season but i know they've already thought about it so i'm sure if we did pick you know they were you got a good to get the part audition and it's interesting because i. i auditioned for another role. that obviously with someone else. and

they based on that work and i got a call back to you know to read for this character and one of the things i talk about to actors all the time about the audition process is you know it's not always about that particular job that you think you're going in to audition for it's really you know it's really an opportunity to. to kind of show you and you know email i get that job but it may lead to a different job people versus o.j. i talk about that experience all the time because i actually read for chris darden and it was probably one of the best auditions that i had ever ever had got wonderful feedback from casting and then months went by and i didn't hear anything because obviously they found someone who was a much better chris darden but i just forgot about in the couple months later i got a call from one murphy's office and they offered me the part of o.j.

and i just always used those two shows as examples about actors tend to get so caught up in the experience are they so when a book this is a sick outing yeah yeah i mean the scenes are they take long and say it was it was yeah the bronco chase we actually shot over the course of the weekend we actually shut down part of the sevens and free wifi. you got a three month old four months just one month does that affect this show affect you i think when we were shooting the show it did not affect me as much because we were shooting and my daughter hadn't been born yet but now having you know a screen that the to an episode it definitely strikes me it hits me a little different you know actually having a living daughter and just the you know the bond and the the sense of responsibility that you have for this this being and about much of my daughter's

four months so you know at seven years old i'm sure it's a whole nother experience it's got to be the worst it's yeah yeah and killer does a really wonderful job. with taking you through the journey of this woman who also has so many secrets and lies if you will really as an audience as using a pair divorced but as a viewer you know you want to root for her. you know because one in front of daughter but then there are other times where you struggle to root for she does a really wonderful job writing that as kevin bacon come to the set he's been there a couple times a great guy yeah you direct to yes have you directed any of this no no i haven't. you haven't i haven't directed in the last couple of years the music and the poetry was. you know an avenue of creative expression that i

really needed. and because as an actor and as a director i have the same sensibilities therefore i fight the same integrity battles and politics i got to a point where i realize that because i was having them in both of my careers i needed to kind of fall back from the directing so i could express myself in a way that i can't necessarily do as an actor or as a director why is it ten days in the valley the show takes place over the course of ten days so each episode is a day so then it can't run two years and i'm sure they figured out a way. that of i've heard it out a way don't kill off this other one of the girls found out the mother goes well you know. he you know his i'd say something that is interesting by. by the third say you know early on and it's great that you've

find out this big question. but you're still so engaged with the series that answering this big question early on. actually makes you more involved in the rest of illinois you're really treating me yeah it's all the question would be who took our right to you so i find that out in the third episode as so goes on. all boy. did you know a.c. cowlings no i did not know him not never got a chance to even talk to him while we were preparing for the role of doing that scene in the bronco how was it constructed was a difficult shoot. a lot of dialogue and yeah it was difficult in that you've got this intense emotion this intense emotional scene that took we we shot over the course of a week and we shut down the seventeen freeway so for two days were in this you know

this high emotional place in this bronco cuba is a really was a funny guy all so if you're going to be stuck in the truck with somebody he's one of the guys you want to be stuck with they're very well you both did very well thank you does a great show they did such a wonderful job with the series and i think it's funny because i like everyone else when you first heard that they were doing this people versus o.j. the first respect reaction is why and then when you see it all put together and you get the vision my director was hemingway your director was murphy ryan and i work with are it with or without in any way as well did you come away with any new perspective. did not really. i if anything i came away with. you know at least what i feel a deeper understanding of friendship and you know a sea putting his his neck on the line for his best friend you also did american

horror story with murphy what makes murphy great there's a there's a quirky in this to his storytelling style that it's just it's always gazing in a deal at another set situation bill cosby how many years were you on that show eight years old thirteen was there i was thirteen you said he was a mentor to you i knew bill very well interviewed him many times spent a lot of time with him has this been difficult for you yet. because when you watch someone who you know and love you know go through what he's going through it's difficult not to. you know not to feel something have some kind of emotional response to you know what this person is going through and the spoken to yeah yeah well said ben like i mean do you. if you lost faith in him have you lost feelings for

a minute no he of feeling no not at all honestly my biggest feeling is i feel sad for you know just. just the way this whole just where the whole story has come about and when you are you've done so much wonderful. so many wonderful things for so much of your career and. you know after having had such a long path a long journey you have something like this that you've got a concern with you forgive if it's true what we never will never know i don't think any of us will never know what the truth is you know and when a talking with so many different there's so many different aspects to you know there are all these stories from all these different women then there is this one particular case that we're talking about so it's that there's so many moving

parts to it is a blind yes he's definitely is definitely behind but his spirits are his birds are great what was he like to work with it was pretty incredible because he's great with people. he had a he has a wonderful sense of being able to to set a tone on the set so people would come to him to go to work on our show and be so surprised about the. the genuine and sincere liking and respect that we all have for each other amongst the cast and crew there was always just a really great vibe and that comes down from the top and people always talk about how rare that kind of energy is when you you know walk on especially a hit show you've got all these eagles involved and you know one thing that i learned from mr cosby is he never came to work if anyone's career wanted to come

into work with a big ego it would be his and because he never came to work carrying that ego one of the things i learned early on was. he's not doing it then it's and there's no reason for me to come to work acting that way so he gave me amongst the million the things i learned from him he gave me really a real sense of how to handle celebrityhood and living in the public eye what legacy is he left with you. you'll always be theo huxtable right. sure yeah i mean that show will rule last forever still shows yeah yeah i'm still. i mean this show hold such importance because it really changed the scope of how. black america and white america and the world for that matter so all black people coming up would talk poetry politics and the personnel from from all

would trade places with the right. i think the average viewer just after watching a couple of segments understands that we're telling stories that our critics can't tell and you know why because their advertisers won't let them. in order to create change you have to be honest you have to tell the truth artie's able to do that every story is built on going after the back story to what's really happening out there to the american public what's happening when a corporation makes a pharmaceutical chills people when a company in the environmental business ends up polluting a river that causes cancer and other illnesses they put all the health risk all the

dangers out to the american public those are stories that we tell every week and you know what they're working. on the what are. your total or. not he didn't. oh oh.

call the feeling of freedom in. every in the world should experience freedom and you can get it on the old old. old according to cheshire. welcome to my rural come along for the ride. back with malcolm jamal warner he's one of the stars of ten days in the valleys also suspect. ten days in the valley premiering october first a b c and boy is the set they have to watch is if you're part of a powerful short called you can't hear me what was that about it was a you can hear me was a are is a socio political outcry. you know in terms of what's happening in the world today david bianculli was one of the poets and producers of the project. you

know invited me to to be a part of it you do your own poetry oh yeah yeah have you always written poetry well yes the world versus a child yes when i was six or seven years old this is before i was even acting i proclaim to my parents that i was either going to be a famous actor a famous poet or famous basketball player so i got two out of three you like the spoken word poetry yeah you might my dad went to lincoln university with gil scott heron and bryan jackson so i had i've literally come out of the womb listening to gil scott in the last poets so they had a really big employers you grow up i was once or the city spent my precocity life back and forth from chicago to l.a. could my parents were split and i would go back and forth because we were shot here right. in new york you know yeah yeah and you can hear me you say i still try to find the god in those who choose

a massage any and hate as tools to make america great. we're talking about mr trump we're talking about not just mr trump i think mr trump's supporters people who voted for him mean you view bew voted for the and there's no way around it you have any hope for this have been a stray ssion. i think i have more hope for what the wake up call does to our country i mean there are men there are. he is you know the pro trump supporters are a voice that had not been and not been heard and they've now made their voices heard and that's one of the things we talk about and you can hear me you know the frustration in trying to get your voice heard you play a little game of if you only knew you do not have to answer is not a corporal ok who was your childhood celebrity crush janet jackson secret talent.

ok person you'd trade places with for a day malcolm x. guilty pleasure. true blood t.v. show you'd like to be a guest star who game of thrones best compliment you have a god that i would be a great father someone to die in a walk with real abuse we had his job you have had a bag of groceries was what store it was a liquor roaster store in my neighborhood back in. like it was not as like seventy nine we'll good beggar i was actually something you wish you a better at acting strangest fan encounter got my i scratched at a parade who did a woman. ran up to it yeah she was a failure yes she was going a calling to get at me and luxury you can't live without my bass

your bass i'm a bass player so oh yeah that too yeah yeah that's a luxury of a play in a group i actually i have a jazz funk spoken word band called miles long got three c.d.'s out really yeah yeah i found that again a friend and he's told me something people don't know about you i just learn to live their lives being led to get a rebate. i have more of a struggle than people realize. in owning that i am enough. that makes sense a struggling year enough's yes struggling that owning that i am an elf i think you know even though i've been acting for more than half of my life even though i have been able to navigate through the perils of growing up in this industry on what to be seen as a successful path. there's

a certain confidence that i exude but even with all of that there's still a struggle and owning that yes i am enough you are a poet you played dr john prentice in guess who's coming to dinner the famous city body a spencer tracy katherine hepburn movie. which i never knew was a play and you played it in washington and boston yes does it follow the film yes very much so. there are i think one of the fortunate things that we had in being able to do it as a play in two thousand and thirteen fourteen is that we had a little bit more room to. be emotional you know during the time when they shot the film you know the racial climate was you know was so high there were only if you only say but so much about the racial

tension dr john print is could only have but so much of an emotional art where as having the freedom to do it on stage and to be doing it you know so many years later it's gave us a little bit more room to tell more truths to like the film yet stanley kramer yes yes story still relevant very much so and what was really interesting about your people would come to the show and even though the story itself was about race relations people were able to give the message of the transcended race. you know when we have these discussions afterwards people would say well you could have the same story line and it be about a same sex couple or it could be. you know. you know a muslim bringing home a jew person poor person you meet first person yet you named after malcolm x. malcolm x. and the marjoram all while my dad set me up well i did a we have

a couple social media questions jack succinct how was it working with eddie griffin . challenging at best and i'm sure he was in the same very tall drink of slaughter did you get to keep denise gordon gordon's boarding gutteral. no that's or it is actually i think it's in the smithsonian actually really think so mike healy would you ever consider reprising the role of theo huxtable and where do you see theo in today's world that's a good question that's a good idea i don't see myself reprising that role you know a little oh yeah you know what i would think it would probably be right to say raids. i think theo would i'm sure theo. has his own would have his own family by now and he would have wound up being a what

a psychologist probably you know professional definitely yes michelle wrangle do you see yourself you view yourself successfully would you want to have your own sitcom. even as i can go back to my own soko. there is it's taken me a while it's taken me into my adult life to. really respect the sitcoms rahner in a way that i didn't so much growing up because growing up. you know i think on the scale of things people look at sitcom as easy. and i think just growing up and watching some people do sitcom and not nesa you know very talented actors do not do so well in the city calm it gave me another respect and appreciation for you know what that genre is as an actor hard work it really is it's

a great schedule but it's his art work would you do another family comedy i would definitely want a film in common i have a different perspective on family now. you said that music might be the audit that's closest to your heart yes but tell me about the album. this is the last. record i put out selfless. you know i put the record out in a time when i was on hiatus from relationships dating and was really needed to take some time for myself to kind of get some clarity on some things how i see life how want to live my life. you know looked at all of my relationships and you know. the common denominator in why they didn't work out you know being me i just did this time to take stock and that record selfless

is a reflection of that because i decided that i did not want to go back into another relationship until i was ready to give. selflessly as you meet the wife. through mutual friend and then again at whole foods at whole foods you know amazon how why did you name the band miles long and miles long was a really good description of my musical journey. you know of come a long way but i still have a long way to go great pleasure and my pleasure to see you thanks to my guests mel torme jim all want to remember ten days in the valley premier's october first on a.b.c. and i can't wait to see it and you can always find me on twitter with kings things i'll see you next time.

in case you need to go this is how it works market economy is built around corporate corporations from washington to washington the media the media the. voters elect the businessman to run this country business equals power. bust it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. mark twain said it's easier to fool people than to convince them they've been fooled that could be why america is so divided because people have been fed fake

news paid for by corporate interests they beat you down until you believe their fairy tales well here's a story for you it's called big and it's full of facts not fiction. i do not know if the russian state hacked into john podesta emails and gave them to wiki leaks but i do know barack obama's director of national intelligence has not provided credible to support his claims of russia i also know he perjured himself in a senate hearing three months before the revelations provided by edward snowden he denied to be n.s.a. was carrying out wholesale surveillance of the us. the hyperventilating corporate media has once again proved to be an echo for government claims that cannot be verified you would have thought they would have learned something after serving as george w. bush's useful idiots in the lead up to the invasion of iraq. it is vitally important

that the press remains rooted in a fact based universe especially when we enter an era when truth and fiction are becoming indistinguishable from. all the world. and all the news come. but he's merely players but what kind of parties aren't america play party america offers more artsy american personal. in many ways the use landscape is just like the real news fake news good actors bad actors and in the end you could never you're on. so much parking all the world stage all the world stage all the world's a stage and we are definitely
