Starr & Bart Scott

Author: Tommy Oliver, Codie Elaine Oliver, Black Love Podcast Network August 12, 2022 Duration: 57:21
When Starr first heard about Bart it was while she was on a date with someone else. When that date didn't go as planned, she was quickly set up with Bart. But look, she was 19, good looking, and wasn't trying to waste her time. So when 18 year old Bart came to the door the first thing Starr said asked is if he was ugly, cause she wasn't going to open the door if he was ugly. Needless to say, Starr opened the door, and from that moment Bart knew that she was going to be his wife. However, the road to love wasn't just that simple. Bart was unfaithful. A lot. And even as his star started to rise and he thought he was ready to rise with it, he wouldn't. How did their marriage make it through every instance of turmoil? Listen as Star and Bart share their journey in this 2018 interview for Black Love Doc.

There's a richness and complexity to relationships that often gets lost in the noise of everyday life and media portrayals. Black Love: The Interviews creates a space to reclaim those narratives, moving beyond the highlight reel to explore the full, textured reality of partnership. Created by filmmakers and real-life partners Tommy Oliver and Codie Elaine Oliver, this podcast extends the conversation from their acclaimed docu-series into a more intimate, long-form audio format. Here, you'll hear extended, unfiltered conversations with the same compelling mix of everyday couples and well-known figures, all sharing their unique journeys without a script. Each episode delves into the foundational moments-how a connection first sparked, the deliberate or surprising path toward commitment, and the reshaping of a relationship after starting a family. They discuss the obstacles faced and the resilience built, offering a raw and often refreshingly candid look at what it takes to build a life together. This isn't about presenting perfect stories, but honest ones, providing listeners with a profound sense of recognition, insight, and community. Tuning into this podcast feels like being part of a necessary and deeply human dialogue about love in all its forms.
