  • Episode #22 - John Riddle
    Sep 9 2024
    I first met John when my father-in-law asked if I would spend some time coaching one of his
    students for his upcoming CCM audition. Self-aware, incredibly gifted, and kind as can
    be...John (who was already marvelous and needed absolutely no coaching from me) attended
    CCM and in no time was charming the city and lighting up the theater scene through star turns
    as Raoul in Broadway’s The Phantom of the Opera and creating the role of Hans of the
    Southern Isles in Disney’s Frozen. Have a listen as we talk shop, camp, and what it feels like to
    inspire others in a space where he once sought inspiration as a young actor. John was an
    absolute joy to speak with....but see for yourself!

  • Episode #21 Tom Viola
    Aug 26 2024
    For decades, Tom Viola has been the face of Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids, and thus, the
    face of Broadway itself. The Executive Director of BC/EFA since 1998, Tom has been at the
    forefront of our Industry’s war against the ravages of the AIDS epidemic, fighting on the front
    lines against the backdrop of a rapidly changing Theatrical and political landscape, and helping
    to raise over $300 million dollars for essential services for people living with HIV/AIDS,
    struggling with COVID-19 or facing other critical illnesses. A special TONY Award winner for his
    service to our community, Tom generously sat down with me to chat about all things gay and
    theatrical! From his time as Colleen Dewhurst’s assistant to talking about those who inspire him
    to keep doing the work he does so tirelessly, Tom is as magical and ebullient as the day I met
    him, decades ago. I so hope you enjoy the chat as much as I did!

  • Episode #20 - Patrick Wilson
    Aug 12 2024
    From the moment we met, back in August of 1997, I knew that Patrick Wilson had that special
    something which sets him apart from mere mortals. Gorgeous? Sure. Talented? Absolutely.
    Funny? Too funny for our own good.....but there’s also that something special that makes a star.
    Twenty-seven years later, he’s all of those things as well as one of Broadway’s most sought
    after leading men, a remarkable husband, father, film-maker and (casually) a bona fide movie
    star. Theatre audiences know Patrick from leading the original company of The Full Monty, as
    well as Broadway revivals of Oklahoma! and All My Sons, while moviegoers will recognize him
    from a truly extraordinary resume; Insidious, The Conjuring, Angels in America, Aquaman and
    so much more. Give a listen as Patrick and I chat about the unexpected course of a remarkable
    career, raising kids, and the state of our industry...there might be a few anecdotes about a
    certain practical joke played on your old pal, Thom...but you’ll have to tune in to learn more. Sit
    back and enjoy my chat with the delightful Patrick Wilson.
