This week, Tommy is joined by actress Lana Parrilla, currently playing a bad ass scientist in the #1 movie on Netflix, ATLAS. Lana teams up with Jennifer Lopez to tell an action-packed story about what can happen if we aren’t careful with how we continue to use and develop artificial intelligence. Lana is a wildly accomplished actress who is perhaps best known for her starring role in the ABC hit series, Once Upon a Time, in which she played the Evil Queen for seven seasons. The internet has given her the title of being one the most iconic villains in the history of television! Today Lana opens up about why she wanted to dive into a story centered around artificial intelligence, how she is honored to always be associated with Once Upon a Time, the powerful fan interactions who were impacted by the series, if OUAT deserves to have a reboot, if she is able to rewatch her past work as the Evil Queen, her very detailed process when she takes on a new role, the ways she constantly works on and prioritizes her mental health, the professional and personal things she still wants to accomplish, and how being homeless as an up-and-coming actress still drives her to be self-reliant, resourceful and hard-working.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Tommy is joined by actor Ryan Guzman, best known for his starring role in the smash hit drama series 9-1-1, currently airing Season 7 on ABC. 9-1-1 is one of the most watched shows on primetime television, chronicling the high-pressure experiences of first responders who are thrust into the most frightening, shocking and heart-stopping situations. What makes this show even more special is that we see what happens after these characters hang up their firefighting gear. Today, Ryan opens up about his journey playing Eddie, how being in 9-1-1 helped him feel like he finally belonged as an actor, the storyline that will forever hold a special place in his heart, why he is proud of Buck for coming out as bisexual, if he’s tired of being asked if his character will spark up a romance with Buck, what the future of Eddie’s love life may look like, if we will ever see that famous karaoke scene that got cut from the show, what it was like filming Eddie’s mental health breakdown, what Ryan has most learned about himself through playing this character over so many years, how he’s learned that showing an unpolished version of yourself is so much healthier than pretending to be something you're not, and working through his own struggles with mental health.

The series is a reboot of the massively successful Pretty Little Liars, and follows a brand new set of liars who find themselves being tormented by an unknown assailant. Friendships are tested, dreamy love interests are introduced and secrets are revealed. Today, Bailee opens up about being a superfan of the original Pretty Little Liars series, how grateful she is to be working with a cast of women that she can relate to, the bonds that have formed with her cast mates,  how one of the original stars of Pretty Little Liars encouraged her to audition for the series during their work out class, the reality of growing up and transforming from a child actor to a young adult in the public eye, the importance of protecting your own energy, that it is okay to do certain things for yourself and not for other people, how Tobey Maguire’s kindness has left a lasting impression on her, and that one time Margot Robbie appeared in her dream with a special message.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Tommy is joined by actor Oliver Stark, best known for his starring role in the smash hit drama series 9-1-1, currently airing Season 7 on ABC. 9-1-1 is one of the most watched shows on primetime television, chronicling the high-pressure experiences of first responders who are thrust into the most frightening, shocking and heart-stopping situations. What makes this show even more special is that we get to also see these characters lives unfold once they hang up the firefighter gear for the day. Oliver plays the confident and compassionate firefighter, Evan Buckley (aka Buck) and quickly became a fan favorite on the show since day 1. Today, Oliver opens up about Buck’s realization that he is bisexual, why he will always stand by storylines that are about inclusion and love, the moment he decided to make an Instagram post to show support for the LGBTQ+ community, what he hopes we will see with Buck’s journey in the future, what he has most learned about himself through doing this show, the thing that Buck from Season 7 would tell Buck from Season 1, the relationship between Eddie and Buck that has many people talking about, and how he wishes he focused more on building friendships throughout the last decade of his life.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, Tommy is joined by Matteo Bocelli who recently released his debut album, “Matteo.” His self-titled debut features 12 tracks, in a mix of English and his native Italian, including the single “Chasing Stars,” written by Ed & Matthew Sheeran. Matteo’s sound is so uniquely him and it is on full display as he embarks on his first solo step into the spotlight. Yes, he has released music previously with his father, the incredible Andrea Bocelli, but this album is Matteo’s baby. Today, Matteo opens up about when he first started to fall in love with singing, trusting the timing of when he was meant to go full-force in pursuing his passion for music, how his dad has always been the most influential person in his life, learning from one of the greatest voices in the world and the pressure that comes with that, developing his own sound and stepping into his own artistry, what excites him the most with his debut album, how he has always admired Ed Sheeran and hopes to collaborate with him in the future, what his first world tour has been like, and the greatest life lessons he has learned from his father.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
