There is a Seat for You on "The Ride" (photo: Carla Ray Thompson)

The Ride: Popping Off about Pop Culture features the unsolicited opinions of and celebrity interviews by author and pop culture connoisseur Carla Ray Thompson, a self-described organic food loving, reality television addicted sistah who invites readers to get on board because she ain’t stopping for no one.

Recently, Carla Ray has added another stop on the journey, Carla Ray’s Reality Check podcast — her take on reality TV madness served with a wink, a smile and a firm pimp hand.  “Like” Carla Ray’s Reality Check on Facebook to keep up with all of the craziness.
