I'm back.

In this State of the Industry episode, I open up about the cancellation of Electric Bloom, what I learned from losing another series, and why nobody talks enough about what happens after the job ends. I get into why your community is your ceiling and why who you surround yourself with matter more than people think. I also talk about reimagining what it means to be an actor in 2026, why I've leaned into directing this past year, and why self-tapes and verticals are both worth your attention right now, whether you like it or not.

If you're feeling stuck or unsure where you fit in this version of the industry, this one's for you.

Success doesn't silence self-doubt.

In this powerful episode, Hacks and Pose star Johnny Sibilly gets honest about what happens after the big break. From the pressure to represent entire communities to the toll of always having to "be on," Johnny shares the side of success most actors never hear about. If you've ever felt like rest isn't an option, or visibility comes at a cost—you need this conversation.

Plus, I kick things off with some real talk about showing up in uncertain times, a wild email I got about L.A., and why our work as artists has never been separate from the world around us.

Actor, writer, and voice of The Simpsons' first gay Cuban character, Tony Rodriguez, joins me to talk about taking creative risks, breaking barriers—and how one self-tape he posted for fun led to the role of a lifetime.

This is what happens when you stop waiting for permission and just put the damn tape out.
