As a younger man, famous actor and Shed Dog KJ McNulty took steps to acquire the professional skills required to become an actor, as we all do when deciding to embark on other, less adrenalin-charged careers: he went to school. In this episode we hear a bit about what that entailed and how it came about. And so we have exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, but not the denouement yet, ladies and gentlemen, not (dramatic pause) yet. Bonus: where to hear Bob Ezrin expound on Alice Cooper and Lou Reed Berlin.
