Charlamagne Tha God’s ‘big get’ interview: YA author Judy Blume
“Tha God Honest Truth” and featured sketches, social experiments and A-list guests, including Vice President Kamala Harris.It’s back now as “Comedy Central’s Hell of A Week with Charlamagne Tha God,” with Josh Lieb, a former executive producer of “The Daily Show with Jon Stewart,” brought on board to help steer the ship.Charlamagne (aka Lenard McKelvey) — a radio Hall of Famer who co-hosts the nationally syndicated “The Breakfast Club” on Power 105.1 with DJ Envy and Angela Yee — spoke to The Post about “Hell of A Week” and about its mission going forward.Why was the show rebranded?The rebrand is literally because that’s what corporate wanted. They do these focus groups and research groups and testings … “Hell of a Week” reads more like a weekly late-night talk show than “Tha God’s Honest Truth.” I’m always a student and trying to learn and I’m also trying to win — so if the network comes to me and says, “We think that with a tweak like this more viewers will come to the show and realize it’s a weekly late-night talk show” … I’m gonna trust the experts.Will the focus on a panel format impact the way you host the show?“I actually think [the panel format] makes me looser because I really do enjoy conversations in a community and I love … exchanging ideas and debating.

Adam Sandler’s new movie has perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes
Adam Sandler‘s new movie You Are So Not Invited To My Bat Mitzvah has landed a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes.The new film, which features Sandler’s real life daughter, lands on Netflix this week (August 25), and has received favourable reviews from critics ahead of its release.The Hollywood Reporter said that the film is “a sweet, amusing film geared toward younger audiences, who will best relate to the main character’s personal travails as she prepares for the film’s main event.”Variety, meanwhile, said: “Playing like a cross between Judy Blume’s Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret and John Hughes’ Sixteen Candles in scale, scope and sound without being derivative, its characters, conflicts and conundrums are filled with potent, earned emotions.”Ahead of the film’s release, it currently has a rare 100 per cent rating on Rotten Tomatoes, with five reviews counted.A synopsis for the film reads: Stacy and Lydia are BFFs who’ve always dreamed about having epic bat mitzvahs.“However, things start to go comically awry when a popular boy and middle school drama threatens their friendship and their rite of passage.”Despite this early praise, Sandler has explained how he came to terms with critics “hating” his movies.The actor has starred in a number of critical flops over his career, including Grown Ups, Jack And Jill, Little Nicky, Mr. Deeds and others.
