Michael's one of our favorite humans, and it's been TOO long, so we had to have him back! Now you know Michael from plenty of things including Spotlight, Only Murders in the Building, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Dexter: New Blood and dozens of other shows, plays and films! And last time Michael was on, we talked all about his marriage, so this time we delve into his pre-married dating life, the issues that led him into therapy, his favorite blockers (which is not the film Blockers, even though it's a pretty fun movie), and of course, we ask: what ever happened to the twin of his high school boyfriend??? PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!
