David Rysdahl has been busy the past few years, but you might not have noticed if you weren't paying attention.
That's not to say his roles have been forgettable — quite the opposite. Rather, Rysdahl has had impactful roles in ensemble casts, whether as chemist Donald Hornig in the blockbuster "Oppenheimer," the loving but passive husband Wayne Lyon in season 5 of "Fargo," or the uneasy scientist Arthur Sylvia in "Alien: Earth."
This latest role reunites him with Noah Hawley, the creator and showrunner of both "Fargo" and "Alien: Earth." In this episode, hear from Rysdahl during an interview with co-host Bruce Miller.
