Here's how Apple announced the episode:

In this revealing yet charming discussion, Oprah and Smith take a deep dive into his new memoir in which Smith shares his candid thoughts on unspoken family stories, life-defining moments, self destruction, the subtle sickness of material success, moments of courage, the wisdom of a child, and the power of laughter.

As for the clip, Smith discusses his experience with racism, as laid out in his new book.

Ahead of his new memoir (Will), Will Smith sits down with Oprah to discuss the many life events that contributed to his story. Here, he discusses his perception of comedy crossing racial divides and the instances of racism he has experienced throughout his career.

You can watch this epsiode, and more including Dolly Parton, Barack Obama, and others on Apple TV+ now — I'd suggest starting with this one.
