The "Was Whoopi Goldberg The Female Eddie Murphy?" Episode
Hey MMP Fans... This episode is very different from the others. I wanted to do an episode that highlights another actor's creative body of work. As I go through the archives of Eddie Murphy interviews, I came across a quote that read... "They were trying to make me the Female Eddie Murphy" (Whoopi Goldberg). I thought that was interesting because of what the beginning of her movie career looked like. I wanted to do my research on her, however, I realized that I didn't know that much about her & her movies. Because of this I went to a very reliable source of information... MY FINANCEE (Steph)! She is the biggest Whoopi Goldberg fan. In this episode we talk about what Whoopi's definitive movies are & Why her "Female Eddie Murphy" label didn't work. We pose the question "Do Whoopi Goldberg movies relate to black audiences?" and Why I think "The Color Purple" is the funniest movie of the 80s. All this plus a shoutout to Moms Mabley and more. Stay Tuned
