Season 2: Episode 9 - **REMINDER** The interviews are for adults, and the stories are for the kids.

Actor Wes Bentley (American Beauty, The Hunger Games, Yellowstone) stops by to discuss his distinguished career, focusing on his role as Jamie Dutton in 'Yellowstone' and the complexities of his character. He reflects on fan reactions, his journey from Arkansas to Hollywood, and his struggles with addiction. Bentley shares insights into his recovery process, the importance of family, and his aspirations for future roles, including a desire to explore comedy. The discussion highlights the challenges and triumphs of his life and career, offering a candid look at the man behind the characters before diving into two improvised stories, including the offbeat tale of a security guard named Cyrus who guards a treasury at a bait shop and encounters talking worms and crickets. The second story follows a boy named Jeremiah who meets a talking fish named Pontificus while lost at sea. Both stories highlight themes of friendship, curiosity, and the importance of connection, all delivered with the sweet weirdness your kids will love.
