☎️ This week is a part two to the conversation I had last week with Actor, Director, Producer, and Writer, Doug Spearman. We dive into his latest project, From Zero to I Love You, a movie he wrote and directed in 2019 that explored the relationship between a open gay man, played by Darryl Stephens, and a married man who struggles with his sexuality. If you haven’t seen the movie, I recommend you check it out otherwise this episode is one big spoiler. Doug and I analyze various scenes, discuss the lives of the actors on and off screen, and the overall theme and message behind the movie. #HungUp | Doug Spearman Twitter @ Instagram @dougspearman

☎️ Intergenerational conversations between Queer/Gay Black men is more of what we want and need. This week’s guest is Actor, Writer, Director, and Producer Doug Spearman who many of us know as Chance from LogoTV’s Noahs Arc series. The episode kicks off with an icebreaker and we talk about Dougs love for peanut butter (ditto) and the first time he saw a reflection of himself. (7:40) Then we talk about his career and life before Noahs Arc and how his upbringing influenced his trajectory. I also about his role as Chance in Noahs Arc, and how he felt about going into a role that was in a committed relationship and raising a daughter. Doug’s portrayal of this family dynamic predated anything we had seen before 2005. (24:13) We wrap the conversation up with a look at how Black Queer lives, relationships, and sexuality are portrayed on screen, then versus now (49:42). #HungUp | Doug Spearman Twitter @ Instagram @dougspearman | Noahs Arc Episode 6 Aired 9-13-2006 “Guys Vs.
