This week on the 100th Episode of BEFORE THE BREAK, the boys sit down with actor, Joel Johnstone. He’s appeared on such shows as SWAT, Longmire, NCIS Los Angeles, and had recurring roles on CSI Vegas, The Newsroom, and Getting On. He's been a series regular on The Astronauts Wives Club, and earned a SAG Award for his work on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. We discuss growing up in the Midwest, his love of baseball, how a summer theatre program changed his life, moving to NYC for college, how a black box theatre production officially hooked him, booking his first professional gig in London, dealing with years of droughts, moving to L.A., how making his own film re-sparked his passion, and how a casting assistant on The Newsroom changed the course of his career. That and much more!
