Love & Basketball, ft. Shar Jackson

This week in “The Rom-Com Room,” we've got something special for you—in honor of March Madness, Kendra and Mercedes nerd it up about the sports romance classic, LOVE & BASKETBALL. But first, the ladies chat with the inimitable Shar Jackson—about everything from her experience on the set of LOVE & BASKETBALL, to her bestie Justin Timberlake. Tune in to hear Shar spill it all, and then listen on to find out why Kendra and Mercedes have so little to roast about this movie, why it’s such an important rom-com for the representation it brings with each rewatch, and how this movie inspired Issa Rae...can you imagine a world without it?! We can’t!
