About this listen

In this episode of The Walkup, Sean O’Hare brings together an unexpected trio: award-winning actress and writer Iris Bahr, Brooklyn-based priest Fr. Rick Riccioli, and Hollywood veteran Rob Long (Cheers, George and Leo).

Together, they explore the shifting role of the church, the emotional weight of service, and how institutions of faith can either heal or harm. Rob shares stories from behind the scenes of network television and his own search for spiritual grounding. Fr. Rick reflects on what it means to serve a broken world, while Iris wrestles with her own relationship to tradition and belief. The conversation moves from substance and spirituality to humor, healing, and the idea of the church as a “hospital for the broken.”
