Christopher Knight - a new talk about family + the Brady Bunch cast


Listen Later

Christopher Knight joins me for a new, intimate talk about family that goes way beyond life as Peter Brady on The Brady Bunch. We’re talking about family dynamics, parenting mistakes, generational trauma, reinvention, nostalgia, and what it really takes to step out of the shadow of an iconic role–not only for Christopher but for each of the six Brady Bunch cast members.

 

Christopher takes us through his journey—from child actor to someone who’s always asking big questions, and how family dynamics, fear and therapy played a role in his personal life. We get into what it was like growing up in Hollywood and how he figured out who he was outside of growing up feeling unloved as a middle child to extremely loved by being a Brady.

 

We also talk about groupthink, why some people fall into cults, and how pop culture shapes the way we see the world. And let’s not forget Scientology—and whether Chris and I should pop into one of their recruiting events just for fun. Yes, we go there.

 

It’s a wild ride with one of TV’s most recognizable faces—so hit play and let’s get into it!

Topics Covered:

·       Life after The Brady Bunch

·       Life during The Brady Bunch

·       Where the Brady siblings are now and what their true personalities are like

·       How therapy changed everything

·       Why a TV reboot of The Brady Bunch may never happen

·       How nostalgia impacts our memories

·       The weird ways pop culture shapes us

·       Why groupthink is so dangerous

·       The future of entertainment and tech

·       If his voice was really cracking on the Time to Change episode of The Brady Bunch
