In this episode of the Mandatory Fun podcast, we speak with standup comedian turned actor Tone Bell. Tone isn't a veteran, but he plays an Army veteran with multiple combat deployments under his belt and now who deals with everyday veteran issues like PTS and transitioning out of the military on the Netflix show Disjointed. You may remember Tone from a few other shows he's been on like 9JKL, The Flash, Truth Be Told, and Bad Judge with Kate Walsh. Disjointed' s producers and creative minds went to great lengths to develop his character and to get the veteran portion right. One of his character advisors on the show is WATM's resident Green Beret Chase Millsap. In the show, "Carter" works as a security guard in a marijuana dispensary at Ruth's Alternative Caring owned by Ruth Feldman (played by Kathy Bates). To play the role Tone spent countless hours prepping the character by talking with veterans throughout his creative process and combed through the script alongside Chase. In the event, Tone reads a portion of the script where he felt the "Carter" character felt synthetic — he'd immediately voice his concerns with the producers. Tone receives several direct messages daily on social media from veterans who respect how he has portrayed the veterans on the screen. This notion promotes that aspect that showcasing veteran issues in a witty and comedic way is possible without the actor going too over-the-top with their performance. This process unique process of prepping for a role will hopefully create a trend throughout the entertainment space. All of Disjointed's episodes are currently streaming on Netflix — so check it out. It's freakin' hilarious.

In this installment, I catch up with a few fall comedies, including the premiere of "9JKL" and the return of "Bob's Burgers" and "Superstore." I report on my efforts to create a homemade DVD set of "Legion," and I make some decent progress on my current collection. Finally, I both in theory and in practice reject the "Wisdom of the Crowd." Enjoy!
