The first show will be a podcast version of the show’s successful spin-off with the Estefan family, ‘Red Table Talk: The Estefans’
Get ready for more content from the Red Table. According to new reports, Jada Pinkett Smith’s Red Table Talk has inked a new podcast deal with iHeartMedia, which will include five new shows from the network over the course of two years.
An incredibly successful series for Facebook Watch, Pinkett Smith’s Red Table Talk has taken the culture by storm, and seems to be expanding to reach an even wider audience.
From bombshell interviews with celebrities to intimate conversations with the Smith family (the infamous Will Smith episode broke streaming records), the talk show brings fans to the “red table” with Pinkett Smith, her mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris and her daughter Willow Smith as they dive into deep conversations.
