Season 2 of Don't Suck is streaming free on YouTube, making this a strong search-friendly episode for fans of queer comedy, web series, and indie LGBTQ television."My self discovery journey started with theater. See how acting helped me understand my identity and pursue the life I wanted." - Tyler Isaac MartinIn this video, Tyler shares the personal path that led him to acknowledge his attraction to men from a young age. Growing up, watching his sister participate in theater gave him the courage to step onto the stage himself. Acting provided more than just a hobby; it offered a space where he could explore who he was and build confidence. Whether you are navigating your own path or simply interested in how the arts shape our personal growth, this story highlights the impact of finding your community.We also discuss the world of performance, touching on the admiration for great casts and the unique energy of improv comedy. While I have not seen Jeff Hiller perform improv yet, it remains on the list for anyone who appreciates the art of unscripted performance. Understanding the theater influence on my life has been central to my self discovery journey, and I hope sharing this perspective helps others find clarity in their own experiences.Subscribe for weekly personal growth stories and acting insights, and let me know in the comments what topic you would like me to cover next.Watch Left of Str8 Interviews every week for smart, funny, and heartfelt conversations with LGBTQ creatives, straight allies, entertainers, authors, musicians, filmmakers, and changemakers.

Kate O'Flynn Talks Widow's Bay

Today, we are joined by Kate O'Flynn from the Apple TV show Widow's Bay. We got the chance to discuss her superstitions, which include some rather interesting bird-related ideas. We also spoke about her recent turn taking the lead in Ep. 4 of Widow's Bay, "Beach Reads", which sees O'Flynn's character, Patricia, assistant to Matthew Rhys' Mayor Tom, organising a town party while dealing with some old school "friends". It's safe to say that, thanks to an ominous party-planning book, things take a turn for the supernatural. We also discuss if she walked away with any party tips from this experience.. Thanks to Kate for sitting down with us for this wonderful chat about the show, now streaming on Apple TV. About "Widow's Bay" In "Widow's Bay," something lurks beneath the surface. Mayor Tom Loftis (Rhys) is desperate to revive his struggling community. There's no Wi-Fi, spotty cellular reception and he must contend with superstitious locals who believe their island is cursed. He wants these people to respect him. They don't. They think he is soft and cowardly. And he is. But Loftis is determined to build a better future for his teenage son and turn the island into a tourist destination. Miraculously, he succeeds: tourists are finally coming. Unfortunately, the locals were right. After decades of calm, the old stories that seemed too ludicrous to be true start happening again. Blending genuine horror with character-driven comedy, "Widow's Bay" features an ensemble cast led by Rhys, Kate O'Flynn, Stephen Root, Kingston Rumi Southwick, Kevin Carroll and Dale Dickey. The supporting cast includes K Callan and Emmy Award winner Jeff Hiller. Hailing from Apple Studios, "Widow's Bay" is created, showrun and executive produced by Dippold. Murai executive produces through his banner Chum Films alongside Carver Karaszewski, Claudia Shin and Rhys. Murai directs five episodes this season, in addition to directors Ti West, Sam Donovan and Andrew DeYoung.

This week, our guest is Jeff Hiller. The veteran comedian and actor is hardly a newcomer, but it's his recent role on the television series Somebody Somewhere that has finally brought him widespread recognition. In 2025, he earned an Emmy for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series for that performance. Hiller talks about the journey in his memoir, Actress of a Certain Age: My Twenty-Year Trail to Overnight Success.  Fans have appreciated his captivating and heartfelt humor for decades at stand-up shows; in theater performances including Bloody, Bloody Andrew Jackson, The Tempest, and most recently the 2025 revival of Urinetown; and on television series like 30 Rock, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Community.On May 8, 2026, Hiller came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to talk to Poulomi Saha about comedy, friendship, and success.  Saha is an English professor and the Co-Director of the Program in Critical Theory at UC Berkeley.  The evening was co-presented with San Francisco Public Library and a supporting non-profit, Friends of the San Francisco Public Library.

So get ready as MARISA GUTERMAN and KEITH GERCHAK tell us all about their feature directorial debut, the charming and nostalgic LOST & FOUND IN CLEVELAND, while ZAC MONCRIEF and JON COLTON BARRY fill us with the fun and joy of Christmas with the animated delight, A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS. Our first stop today is Cleveland with the wonderfully warm and toasty slice of Americana, LOST & FOUND IN CLEVELAND. A look at the American Dream set in "the best location in the nation", this is a slice of life set over a 24-hour period that follows the personal odysseys of five very different people, whose lives intertwine when America's favorite televised antiques appraisal show comes to Cleveland. A true tapestry of the heart of America, co-directors and co-writers MARISA GUTERMAN and KEITH GERCHAK bring us a tale that shows us what is truly to be cherished in our lives. Boasting an amazing cast with Dennis Haysbert, Dot-Marie Jones, Esther Povitsky, Jeff Hiller, Jon Lovitz, June Squibb, Stacey Keach, Loretta Devine, Mark L. Walberg, Martin Sheen, Yvette Yates Redick, and the scene stealing Benjamin Steinhauser, the film spans the generations and all walks of life, this is a film that has something and someone for every age, every demographic, and fills you with the holiday spirit. Then we dive headfirst into Christmas and Santa and Mrs. Claus and presents and elves and Chuck E. Cheese and his friends with A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS. Written and executive produced by ZAC MONCRIEF and JON COLTON BARRY, and co-directed by ZAC MONCRIEF, A CHUCK E. CHEESE CHRISTMAS is a unique blend of family-friendly animation, songs destined to become holiday classics, and filled with holiday cheer as Chuck E and his pals Helen Henny, Jasper Jowls, Bella Brinca, Munch, and Pasqually create a plan to throw a surprise party to lift Santa's Christmas spirit! But surprising the man who "sees you when you're sleeping and knows when you're awake" won't be easy. Can the gang pull it off in time to save Christmas? http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com
