We are delighted to have the legendary Eriq La Salle on the show.
The talented actor, writer, producer, director and novelist joins us to talk about his illustrious career, the power of storytelling and his love of acting but not necessarily some of the business of acting.
We talk about a writing rejection leading to acting, an acting rejection leading to directing and frustrations about pay disparity and inequality shaping his work as a producer.
Eriq talks about his role as producing director on On call, how he ended up acting in it as well and what he would have done if he hadn't been an actor.
An inspiring episode by one of the industry's longest serving and broadest talents.
