Nicholas Hammond shares life lessons learned from being the first live-action Peter Parker/Spider-Man and working with Julie Andrews on The Sound of Music. Nicholas Hammond was the first actor to play a live-action Peter Parker/Spider-Man in the 1970s. We discuss how Nicholas landed the role and what it meant to him to be the star of his own show. We dive into the decisions made on the show that upset Stan Lee and we discuss the current movies and with their approach to the Multi-verse how a 1970s Spider-Man could make a comeback.  Before Nicholas became the first prime-time web-slinger he had a starring role as one of the 30 children in the original Lord of the Flies (1963) movie. We discuss the making of that movie and how the director navigated such a disturbing tale with unknown 10-year-olds.   We also discuss Nicholas's role as Friedrich Von Trapp in The Sound of Music. Working directly with Julie Andrews had a profound impact on Nicholas's life and he share the lessons learned early on working with such an amazing person as Julie Andrews.  We also discuss the time Nicholas was the big man on campus and what it was like creating a one-time iconic character on The Brady Bunch.  This episode is... well... Amazing and ends with Nicholas's story on landing the role of Sam Wanamaker in Quentin Tarantino's Once Upon A Time...

Actor Rebecca Metz discusses her slow and steady build in Hollywood from guest parts to starring in her own series. It's an amazing story that perseverance pays off when you're focused on your dream.   Rebecca Metz is unavoidable on your TV screen. Rebecca has guested on Weeds, Maron, This is Us, Grey's Anatomy, Bones, The Mentalist, Boston Legal, Californication, The Mindy Project, Lopez, ER, Scrubs, and the Gilmore Girls (just to scratch the surface).  We discuss in detail her appearance on Nip/Tuck. Her scene was rated one of the top 23 most disturbing scenes ever on TV. It's an amazing story of taking a risk on a role and having it pay off.  We also discuss Rebecca's reoccurring role on Shameless, her starring role on Coop and Cami Ask The World, and Rebecca's current series, Better Things on FX/Hulu.  If that's not enough we also discuss our mutual love of The Muppets and Rebecca's unique wedding ceremony.  So much fun to discover in this episode.

Comedian Paul Provenza shares what drives his creative storytelling that we've all enjoyed for decades. Paul Provenza has created some of the most amazing comedic masterpieces of our time. Paul co-created the documentary The Aristocrats which is an exploration of one joke told by generations of comedians. Paul's interview with George Carlin provides the backbone and analysis explored in this amazing movie. One hundred superstar comedians (Robin Williams, Paul Reiser, Bob Saget, etc) tell the same very, VERY dirty, filthy joke--one shared privately by comics since Vaudeville.  Before Comedy Central Paul Provenza created one of the first comedian-only interview shows, Comics Only. Part of HA! (which became Comedy Central) Paul interviewed the likes of Bill Hicks, Tom Wilson, Louis C.K., and Steven Wright. Paul evolved the concept of Comics Only into the beloved The Green Room on Showtime! The Green Room gave the world a realistic peek into the lives of comedians hanging out in a green room discussing various topics.  Paul also created The Set List show. The Set List is stand-Up Without A Net a show created with Troy Conrad where comics are unaware of the setlist they will be performing. Paul is currently working on a documentary of Doug Stanhope's favorite comic, Andy Andrist. Paul shares so many amazing stories involving Patrice O'Neal, Otto & George, George Carlin, Phyliss Diller, Tom Wilson, Billy the Mime and so many more.  If you love comedy, sit back and enjoy this amazing conversation with comedian, filmmaker, author, director, and actor, Paul Provenza.  Our Guest, Paul Provenza https://twitter.com/PaulProvenza  https://twitter.com/ARISTOCRATSfilm  https://thearistocratsmovie.wordpress.com/  https://twitter.com/GreenRoomWithPP  https://twitter.com/SATIRISTAS https://twitter.com/SETLISTSHOW  https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0699037/  Comics Only: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLyRnFay5B8dIhvNk2J0quDB9WD5pjq5ju  The Green Room: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IQtUMVJW0zo Andy Andrist (Last Shot): https://800pgr.lnk.to/Andy  Satiristas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDOYCGQGIPw  JOIN OUR MAILING LIST!  https://jeffisfunny.com/mailing-list/ Buy me a coffee! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JeffDwoskinShow Jeff Dwoskin Presents: Crossing the Steams: Every Wednesday at 9:30 PM ET we are LIVE discussing the best TV shows to binge-watch.

Considered one of the greatest comedic minds of our time Rick Overton performed hours of improv with Robin Williams. Rick has been entertaining us for decades. Rick currently is showing off his Improv mastery in his Set List comedy special. An hour of improvised comedy that will amaze you and keep you rolling with laughter. Rick and I talk about Jonathan Winters and Rick's decades-long friendship with Robin Williams. Rick shares some great personal stories and on-stage stories with Robin. Rick shares his life journey to becoming a comedian and improv master that started with his very musical family. Rick made George Burns laugh at an early age and that cemented his road to being an entertainer. We discuss the importance that 'Evening at the Improv' played during the comedy boom and Rick's one and only time on the Tonight Show when Joan Rivers was the guest host. There's more to the Joan River's story, but you'll have to listen. Rick also shares an amazing story about working with Andy Kauffman as Andy was in the early development of the Tony Cliffton character. Rick shares some great behind-the-scenes stories of working on the Dennis Miller show (for which he won an Emmy). Rick also shares some stories about his iconic TV and movie appearances in "Willow," "Mrs. Doubtfire," "The Office" (Pam's father), and "Seinfeld" (The Drake). Listen in for a ton of more stories from one of the funniest people around, Rick Overton.
