Regina and Reina King join the show to talk about their film Shirley, which follows the first Black congresswoman and political icon Shirley Chisholm, and her trailblazing run in 1972 for president of the United States. Regina and Reina produced the film for their company Royal Ties, and acted opposite each other (Regina as Chisholm and Reina as her sister, Muriel St. Hill).

Regina and Reina reflect on the film's 15 year journey, talk about the process of bringing Oscar-winner John Ridley onboard as director, writer, and co-producer, and explain what inspired Reina to get back in front of the camera after a two decade hiatus from acting.

The sisters also dig into what their dynamic was like growing up, share a few favorite pieces of advice that they've gotten from their mom over the years, and discuss what makes their creative partnership so strong.
