Episode 91 - Inside The Pitt with Charles Baker

This week on the podcast, I'm sitting down with multitalented and down-to-earth actor, Charles Baker. You may recognize him from The Pitt, Breaking Bad, The Mandalorian, or countless other shows. Regardless of where you know him from, the one undeniable truth is that he brings a depth to these fan-favorite characters that is hard to come across these days. In this interview, Charlie breaks down the behind the scenes work that went into bringing The Pitt season 2's Digby to life. From "griming down" to interacting with a maggot wrangler, we cover all the stops. You can follow Charlie on Instagram (@thecharlesbaker) and check out "You Can't Win" streaming now on Prime video!

Episode 90 - Meet Your New Favorite Band (with Belle and Chain)

This week, we're welcoming Spencer Grammer (@spencergrammer) to the show, and welcoming back Davis IL (@davis.il). These two lovely humans make up the band Belle and Chain (@belleandchain). They just opened for Barns Courtney on the North America leg of his acoustic tour, and if you got to see them live, you already know they're a powerhouse duo of western glam. In this short but sweet backstage interview, we cover their latest single "Don't You Worry Babe", tour, the backstory of the band, and dive deeper into how a stabbing in NYC led Spencer to use music as physical therapy.

Episode 89 - Rewriting the Setlist: Life Six Years Sober (with Craig Fort)

Join me in welcoming musician Craig Fort to the podcast! Craig is the front man of the band Lightning Stills, whose self-titled debut album is out now! This album is funny and raw, with an incredible story behind it. At time of album release, Craig is celebrating 6 years of sobriety! The songs on this album were started when he first started his journey, and the catchy tunes tell stories of learning to love without alcohol. I greatly enjoyed my conversation with Craig and hearing about his experiences and growth journey. He is truly a lovely guy, and I hope you'll check out their music!

Episode 88 - The Hillywood Walk of Fame (with Hilly Hindi)

In 2006, sisters Hannah and Hilly Hindi posted episode 1 of The Hillywood Show as part of a contest. Now, over a decade later, their fandom inspired parodies have reached international recognition and fame. From the celeb cameos to the insane cosplay shapeshifting, these parodies truly are a creative work of art. I've been a fan since their Harry Potter Parody released in 2011, and as a creator myself, this interview was truly a dream come true. I sit down with Hilly to discuss the humble beginnings of The Hillywood Show, the upcoming Star Wars Parody, and reflect on over ten years in the creative space. You can follow The Hillywood show on socials (@TheHillywoodShow) as well as Hilly (@HillyHindi) and Hannah (@HannahHindiOfficial) so you don't miss any news on upcoming projects!

Episode 87 - Barns Courtney 2: Electric Boogaloo

Welcome to the long awaited return of fan favorite, Barns Courtney! In Episode 51, I joined Barns and his band backstage in Anaheim. This time around, we're talking about The Street Team (@barnscourtneystreetteam), new album, upcoming solo tour, and of course - aliens and Pokemon! In addition to hearing Barns gush about his fans, it wouldn't be a proper interview without us diving deeper into some seriously random stuff too.
