For 22 years, Gary's inimitable style has made him one of radio's standout personalities, ''Honey". His ever-popular "Colour of the Day", fashion reports, flawless entertainment news and celebrity gossip (which Gary calls "Da Tea") are can't-miss features for Rickey Smiley Show listeners and now Dish Nation viewers. Gary began his career at KJMZ/Dallas, starting as a frequent call-in listener, ultimately becoming a co-host on the station's "Russ Parr Morning Show". At every radio appearance and community event, listeners flocked to his live remotes to see for themselves just who was pouring "The Tea", and serving up the celebrity dish! Soon after, Gary moved to Dallas's Majic 102, The Beat in Austin, TX, X-102.3 Palm Beach FL, and back to Dallas to join 97.9-The Beat's hot morning radio show, The Steve Harvey Show. It wasn't long before he was asked to join The Rickey Smiley Morning Show team, where "Da Tea" is now poured daily. @garywdtea

Roxane Gay is a critically acclaimed and New York Times best-selling author. She also was a writer for Marvel’s “Black Panther: World of Wakanda” comic series. The series was cancelled after six issues, but it still served as a major inspiration for the highly-anticipated Black Panther film’s style and storyline, according to an interview Chadwick Boseman gave in 2016.

So, isn’t it kind of messed up that she wasn’t invited to premiere of the movie that her work served as inspiration for? Click on the audio player to hear more in this exclusive clip from Gary’s Tea on “The Rickey Smiley Morning Show.”
