I want to know more about the films people grew up with, the songs that helped them through tough times, or the books that changed them. I aim for my guests to take a deeper dive into the art that

Men, women, and children… gather round for a new story of great joy and despair, of great cleverness and stupidity, and of course of great conversation and complete waste of time! Put your hands together for my guest today, Matt Linton. We have a nice fun chat about the world of comedy, something we both hold close to our hearts.

Today I sit down with a gentlemen and a scholar, Jon Young. We discuss the true nature of hard work, confidence, and foolery.

Whether it was on a baseball diamond or in front of a live audience, Jon is no stranger to crowds of people cheering him on. He’s had a lot of ups and downs in his life but nothing has ever stopped him from pursing his dreams. I had the pleasure of hearing Jon’s story and his views on

Like ADD medication, loneliness, and the pursuit of living as an adult child. We discuss, our love for theater, and the art of the performance. Not to mention his work as a musician, creating his first music project called “DRFTRS.” He does it all folks! He’s insane! *pulling chunks of hair out of head. Love, Kris Ad: Special guest David

Welcome back my friends. I sit down with an old friend of mine, the OG, Kelly Hall. She shares her experiences in moving to LA for the arts and what it’s been like surviving in Hollywood as an actor. Despite living in Miami for most of her life, raised by Cubans and Americans, we also discover that she is actually a full quarter French (there’s absolutely no sign of it btw, besides maybe her love for bread.) We discus why racism is stupid (obviously), why she can’t watch scary movies unless she

I sit down with actor, director, lover (maybe, I don't know), and all around creative guy, Alex Vergel. He tells us what it was like growing up in Japan, Hawaii, and California, and why is wasn’t always easy to fit in. As he put it “I was too American for Japan and too Japanese for America.” Using film and televison as an escape, it inspired him to work professionally as an actor and director, and he shares the visceral experiences he’s had as an artist. Also, we discuss our obsession with films

Alright listen up. This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with a very cool cat, Mr. Benjamin Michael Theobald (made up name probably…) This guy and I realized we had so much in common and might have accidentally became best friends in the recording (you can almost hear the blushing). We discuss tattoos, we discuss Kentucky, we discuss Hollywood, and if you think it won’t get anymore American than that, you better think twice my friend, because we sum it all up with “Back To The Future!” The

Today I sit down with my good friend Kevin Mahoney (“the wind that shakes the barley”) where we discuss his “idealistic” childhood growing up in Minnesota. We get into the origins of our last names and our rebellious teens (you know, the 2000’s…). We’ll talk about the importance of a strong relationship in family and why we both hate talking on the phone (unless it’s our mother of course).
