Episode 36 – Kevin Spacey’s Downfall, The Right Way to Audition, TV Today

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-uxdw6-7da66c

It looks like Kevin Spacey’s career might be over. Apparently, he has used his status to harass numerous people over the years. It’s rumored that he might be investigated by British police for other acts of sexual harassment. This is such a sad ending to a great career. Of course, I feel for the victims, and I also feel for Spacey. Everyone has been destroyed by his behavior including himself. 

I also talk about the right way to audition. Is there a right way? I think so. 

Finally, I explore my opinion on the sorry state of television right now. In my opinion, the existence too many programs are having a detrimental effect on overall quality. 

I hope everyone had a spectacular Thanksgiving!

Episode 35 – Kevin Spacey’s Foibles, Curb Your Enthusiasm and Seinfeld

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-xkpq7-7a1833

This week I take a peak, so to speak, at Kevin Spacey and his recent debacle. Since I recorded this episode yesterday, many people are now saying that Spacey regularly abused his power on the set of House of Cards and created a “toxic” work environment on the set through a pattern of sexual harassment and assault. I don’t want to believe this. Kevin has been a great representative for all actors for many years. To think that he may have behaved in ways that hurt numerous people is difficult for me to accept. 

On a lighter note, this episode also talks about the return of Curb Your Enthusiasm to HBO! After a six-year absence, the half hour program has been resurrected by Larry David and the executives at Home Box Office. I also take a look at the iconic sit-com, Seinfeld and analyze the similarities and differences with Curb. Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David have created multi-million dollar enterprises with the two comedies. So, you better listen, or NO SOUP for YOU!
