Tom Welling (Smallville, Lucifer) joins us this week for our 300th episode. He was our first guest, so we couldn't think of anybody more perfect for our 300th ... We catch up on a lot with Welling - the rewards and challenges of fatherhood, his desire to be of service to others, and self reflections on his career to this point. We also get into stressful stories on set Smallville, his heart warming Keanu story, and resisting Brendan Fraser.

John was an open book this week, going on to talk about the pain of losing a child, his outlook on life after death, and the current vacuum of creativity our industry is stuck in. Hope you enjoy.

Billy Dee Williams (Star Wars, Brian's Song) joins us this week to reflect on his incredible legacy in this industry - from the importance of his casting as Lando Calrissian in Star Wars, to his chemistry with Diana Ross, and why he's steadfast with his unique creative approach rather than playing the victim. Truly appreciate Billy Dee coming on the podcast as a self admitted 'private person,' his honestly about dark times in life and the idea of not dwelling on the negatives was refreshing.
