Dez is a singer and actor you might recognize from Season 3 of The Voice. Now, he's making his Broadway debut, starring alongside Darren Criss and Helen J Shen in the critically acclaimed musical Maybe Happy Ending, and was gracious enough to sit down with Les today to discuss it all. Dez plays Gil Brentley, a smooth, fictional jazz singer whose songs echo the love story at the heart of the show. Critics are raving—the production's been named “Best Theatre of 2024” by The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and more. Entertainment Weekly calls Dez “a captivating stage presence,” and The Guardian dubbed him “a dashing daydream.” Let's take a listen—and then we'll sit down with Dez himself.

This week, Les chats with reality TV competition star Rob Roman. He stars in the hit Hulu series "Got To Get Out". Battling it out amongst Reality TV royalty such as Spencer Pratt, Omarosa Manigault Newman, and Cynthia Bailey to name a few, Rob takes his shot as a reality tv rookie amongst 20 contestants, at a chance to win up to $1 million. Hosted by Simu Liu, the highly anticipated series premiered April 11th.  Rob may be familiar to those in the reality realm as he competed in the first season of the hit competition series Squid Game: The Challenge on Netflix. Rob's goal has always been to support his family and his other ventures. One of his most recent ventures is HC Roots (Home Care Roots), a home healthcare company that provides skilled nursing and caretaker services for medically fragile children—completely free for families. Outside of his philanthropic endeavors, Rob has served in law enforcement for over 11 years in New Jersey where he was born and raised. He was the youngest to make detective and to make sergeant in the history of his police department. #Hulu #RobRoman #GotToGetOut

This week, Les chats with writer Eric Holmes about the new recording of Wild About You, the musical for which he wrote the book alongside music and lyrics by Chilina Kennedy. In addition to wonderful performances by the original album's all-star cast, the new edition includes two newly recorded bonus tracks, songs written for the show but not included on the original recording. Wild About You – World Premiere Recording: Deluxe Edition in digital and streaming formats on Friday, September 27.  In Wild About You, main character Olivia finds herself at a life-or-death crossroads. As she faces the fallout of her relentless need to please, the true extent of the chaos she has woven in her life becomes painfully clear. In a race against time, she sifts through the poignant memories of her three great loves, seeking the key to untangling her past. With every revelation, she edges closer to a second chance, driven by the desperate hope of reuniting with the love of her life – her son. Eric was a writer on the critically acclaimed TV series “The Good Fight” on Paramount+ as well as “Evil” (CBS) and “Smash” (NBC), and we discuss what working on those shows was like, and how it differs from writing for the stage. Let's hear the title track from the album, then jump into the interview with acclaimed writer for television and stage, Eric Holmes.

This week, Les chats with Dan Lauria and Patty McCormack about the Off-Broadway premiere of Just Another Day, a play about wonderful old friends who may not even know each other, but who relive and celebrate a life together...maybe. In Just Another Day, a comedy writer and a sophisticated poet in their seventies meet daily on a park bench to exchange wits and barbs, and wax nostalgic about old movies, all the while trying to figure out how they know – and love – each other. At least for that day. Directed by Eric Krebs, the two-member cast is Dan Lauria, who also wrote the show, alongside Patty McCormack. Between them, Lauria and McCormack have over 100 years of live theatrical experience, as well as over 150 television shows and films. Dan Lauria has appeared as a guest star in over seventy television episodic programs and more than twenty Movie Of The Week productions plus a score of motion picture credits. Dan is a very familiar face to the off-off, off and regional theatre scene having performed, written or directed over 50 professional stage productions. Dan is most recognized as the Dad on the highly acclaimed, Emmy winning, ABC television show, “The Wonder Years.” Patty McCormack brings to her role more than seven decades of stage, screen and television appearances. From her Oscar and Golden Globe nominated performance in The Bad Seed to work in the Oscar and Golden Globe Nominated Frost/Nixon and The Master; starring in her own television series “Peck's Bad Girl” to creating memorable characters on television favorites from “Dallas” to the “The Soprano's”; and her extensive theatrical work beginning with a Broadway debut at the age of six in Touchstone starring Ossie Davis. Patty McCormack brings her diverse range of talent to every role she plays. We talk about writing, acting, their connection to live theater, and much more. If you're in the New York area and want to catch the show (and you should) tickets are $49-$69 ($99 premium) and may be obtained at www.theater555.venuetix.com.
