Different voices.One table.
The Reset Talk Show's strength isn't agreement. It's a panel of different backgrounds and beliefs who respect one another enough to disagree on air.
J.R. Giddings
J.R. Giddings created The Reset Talk Show during the pandemic and has hosted it live every week since, building a table where elected officials, clergy, entrepreneurs and community advocates sit side by side. Through JRG Entertainment he has produced fashion, cultural and awareness events across the tri-state area for more than three decades.
“We don’t just talk about change. We create it.”— J.R. Giddings
