I think it's working."

And, in a direct message to listeners, he told them how they could tell whether or not they are on the right tracks as we navigate "a time of change tantamount to the industrial revolution" as soon as they had switched off the podcast.

From his first Broadway appearance, tapping alongside Ruby Keeler in No, No Nanette, to his newest play Georgie, a one man show about the legendary character actor George Rose, Ed is truly a renaissance man of the theatre. In this tell all interview, Ed opens up to Rob & Kevin about what it was like to work with legends Busby Berkley, Charles Durning, Christine Ebersole, and Kevin Spacey. Plus, how he overcame a substance abuse addiction to give himself a second act on life.
Ed Dixon, veteran of over a dozen Broadway shows (including Les Miserables, Anything Goes, Sunday in the Park with George and No, No, Nanette) joins Candi & Randy to talk about his bestselling memoir "Secrets of a Life On Stage... And Off." Ed has worked with everyone from Busby Berkeley to Ruby Keeler to Leonard Bernstein, to Ann-Margret to Kevin Spacey to Tony Danza to Kathie Lee Gifford to Stephen Sondheim and everyone in between. At the halfway mark of his very long stage career Mr. Dixon suffered a devastating drug addiction which nearly killed him and left him homeless. He overcame addiction and went on to rebuild his life & career and have even greater successes in his life and profession. Having lived a remarkable saga of success, devastation and redemption covering more than four decades, we are very excited to have Ed Dixon as our guest. Ed is currently starring the new play "Oswald: The Actual Interrogation" which delves into the history and controversy surrounding the 48 hours Lee Harvey Oswald was in the custody of the Dallas Police Department after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. For more information, click here. If you have any interest in what goes on behind the scenes in the theater, join us to hear first hand about an amazing life lived on and off stage.
