On Fox Friday, the Ebro, Laura, and Rosenberg show calls Lena Waithe in Baltimore to discuss her stage and playwriting debut, “Trinity,” at Baltimore Center Stage, an 80-minute, no-intermission three-hander about how parental, platonic, and romantic relationships shape love, including a childfree-by-choice “what if we had a baby” scene. Waithe shares the play’s strong audience reactions, curated “Trinity” playlist, and why theater demands presence, while also noting they’re filming the final season (season 8) of “The Chi” and expressing gratitude to mentors and longtime supporters. The show then shifts to “Family Matters” with Ebro’s daughter Isa, who recaps a Florida flag football world tournament (including an ESPN game), discusses balancing sports with future goals, and tells a story about navigating crowd conflicts at a Fray Sky concert before choosing a better view from the back.
