Today I'm chatting with the oh so handsome Ian Parks who plays “Hot Toddy” on the series.

Dennis's other guest is Kieran Turner, creator of the webseries "Wallflowers." The pair discuss the inspiration for their webseries, what it took to get them made and the heartening and surprising reactions they've gotten from fans. Joe also discusses becoming a bear sex symbol, rewarding his Kickstarter donors with art and the Catalina misadventure that almost sank the show. Kieran talks about his connection to the New York theater scene, having to switch actors like Darren Stevens on "Bewitched," and his acclaimed 2012 documentary "Jobriath A.D.," about the late openly gay 70's glam rocker who was called "the American Bowie." Joe and Kieran also share their childhood TV crushes, the times they were starstruck and what it was like to shoot on Judy Garland's yacht. (Both Joe and Kieran will both appear on the panel "Web Series: In with the New Out" at Outfest on July 11th at 11:30 Am at DGA2.)
