My nephew Nash recently took a trip to the Long Island Childrens Musuem. He got to get a taste of what it was like to record a radio show, be a newscaster, and create core memories- quite literally. Nash was so excited to think he could listen to himself on the way to school instead of kidsbop. I wanted to share this with my listeners as I talk about Nash so often and he brings so much joy.

Will Madden began his career as an actor following his classical training at The London Academy of Music & Dramatic Art and the Boston University School of Theatre. After starring in the Sundance Film Festival feature Beast Beast (EP Alec Baldwin) he made his studio debut as the titular serial killer in MGM/Orion Classics' The Wolf of Snow Hollow. He has subsequently starred in numerous independent feature films including 2026's Erupcja (opposite Charli XCX), 15 Cameras (third installment of the cult classic franchise 13 Cameras), Jethica, Love and Work, and Mean Spirited. His feature films have premiered at Sundance, SXSW, TriBeCa, TIFF, and numerous domestic and international festivals.

Will and I had a great conversation about our reoccurring actor dreams , how to stay calm in the eye of the storm, and of course Jennifer Aniston. Please enjoy my conversation with Will Madden.
