Vitamin supplements: the ultimate cure-all for all that ails you! Or so we're told, anyway. But let's be real, the world of vitamin supplements can be a confusing and, at times, downright comical place.

Well, have no fear...why do I keep saying have no fear in my promos??  No one is afraid of vitamins John or any subject we discuss so stop it!!

Anyway, back to my point. George knows a ton about supplements and their benefits and I know how to ask really dumb questions so join us for an evening of knowledge and ignorance.

Actor Charles Andrew Payne has a vast resume. One of his proudest roles is Pastor Bruce Barnes in the feature film LEFT BEHIND: RISE OF THE ANTICHRIST. Pastor Barnes is the bedrock of the story, a man torn between the faith he professes and what he believes. His family is taken in the rapture, but he has been left behind. Charles also narrates the film as his character Pastor Barnes.

Past television series and feature films include Miracle In East Texas where Charles played Reverend Reece. He had the role of Jock on the television series Wynona Earp and the role of Darryl in The Surrogate While living in Vancouver one of the roles he most enjoyed was playing Breeze on MacGyver with Richard Dean Anderson and worked with Richard again on Stargate. He had the pleasure of working with Johnny Depp on 21 Jump Street in one of his earlier TV roles. He also worked with Kevin Sorbo on Andromeda and Miracle in East Texas. He joined both Pam Grier and Snoop Dog on The L – Word. A fun fact is that Charles often gets mistaken for Samuel L Jackson. People get mad when he tells them “I’m not him”. Considering Samuel is 20-plus years older and taller, “I think it will be a great day when he gets mistaken for me, then I’ll know I’ve made it.” add Charles.

LEFT BEHIND: RISE OF THE ANTICHRIST is coming to theaters nationwide beginning Thursday, January 26. Charles joins a stellar cast. Starring Kevin Sorbo (GOD’S NOT DEAD, SOUL SURFER), Neal McDonough (MINORITY REPORT, “Arrow,” TIMELINE), Corbin Bernsen (“Psych,” MAJOR LEAGUE, “The Resident”), Bailey Chase (“Longmire,” “Saving Grace”), Greg Perrow (ACTOR FOR HIRE, THOSE WHO KILL), Sarah Fisher (“Degrassi: The Next Generation,” ROXY) and Sam Sorbo (LET THERE BE LIGHT, HOPE BRIDGE, MIRACLE IN EAST TEXAS), LEFT BEHIND: RISE OF THE ANTICHRIST is the next chapter of the mega-hit LEFT BEHIND film franchise, based on the 80 million-copy New York Times bestselling book series of the same name.

His novel “A Dream of America” is on Amazon’s list of “Preferred Reads”.

He was Chairman and CEO of Motion Picture Group of America from 1985 to 2005.

He is the Founder and CEO of MagicQuest Entertainment, a Hollywood production company since 1975, and the Founder and CEO of CanAm Film Corp., a British Columbia corporation since 1992.

A member of the Oscar Academy since 1985, he serves on several Academy committees, including the nominating committee for Best Foreign Language Film.

He also serves on the Screen Actors Guild Awards Motion Picture Nominating Committee.

He has competed in Olympic Trials and World Championships in various sports, is a fifth-degree black belt in judo, is a USA Judo National and Olympic coach, and was 2009 inducted into the Martial Arts Hall of Fame.

Multi-talented actor/musician/writer/director Wesley MacInnes takes on his next acting role in the new sci-fi Netflix series, “The Imperfects.” After an experimental gene therapy turns them into monsters, three twenty-somethings, played by Morgan Taylor Campbell (“Zoe’s Extraordinary Playlist”), Rhianna Jagpal (“Motherland: Fort Salem”), and Inaki Godoy (“Who Killed Sara”) band together to hunt down the scientist responsible and force him to make them human again, teaming up along the way with Dr. Sydney Burke – played by Italia Ricci (“Designated Survivor,” “Supergirl”).
