About this listen

Happy Tuesday, everyone! I love when I get the opportunity to sit down with someone who I really respect as an actor and Brett Gelman is definitely one of those people. You know Brett from playing Murray on Stranger Things and Martin on Fleabag, plus roles in The Other Guys, Strays and McVeigh. The roles that Brett plays are hilarious and there’s always a darkness to them— I found it so interesting to learn more about his approach to building a character. We talk about our acting idols and having the humility to continue studying even after you find success. In fact, this conversation convinced me to start working with an acting coach again! Plus, we discuss how Star Wars inspired both of us to become actors and which Star Wars character informed his role as Murray in Stranger Things. Be sure to stick around for the Hindsight, where my producer Jeph and I talk about the interview and answer fan questions from the Mail Sack!
