The Podcast Revelation: “Do the Right Thing” and Dating Dynamics
During Wednesday’s episode of “IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson,” the podcast she co-hosts with her brother, Michelle Obama provided detailed account of what she characterized as the pivotal moment that “sealed the deal” in her relationship with future President Barack Obama. The revelation centered on their first date, which concluded with a screening of Spike Lee’s influential 1989 film “Do the Right Thing.”
The choice of film proved strategically significant for the developing relationship, as Michelle explained to guest Spike Lee and her brother Craig Robinson. “Do the Right Thing is the kind of movie that after you watch it, you gotta talk about it, you know?” she reflected, emphasizing how the film’s provocative themes created natural opportunities for deep conversation that revealed character and values alignment.
