      • The Fascinating Life of Richard Lyford and The Film 'As The Earth Turns' With Ed Hartman

        In this episode of "Diary of an Unemployed Actor," Milo speaks with musician and filmmaker Ed Hartman. He  has an amazing story about the movie and life of Richard Lyford. Lyford was a Seattle-based filmmaker who wrote and directed a silent film in 1938 that had never been released…  Until now.


        The film As the Earth Turns has received a long list of awards now that it has been completed. Ed and I discuss a short documentary, It Gets in Your Blood about the life of the extraordinary writer and director who made 9 films before he was 20, worked for Disney, and directed an Academy award-winning film.

        As The Earth Turns will be on Turner Classic Movies on Halloween 2021!

        • Rip It Up: Canceling Dr. Seuss ft. Juanita Rea - Part 2

          In this episode of “Rip It Up,” Kev and Milo are joined by artist Juanita Rea, to discuss the recent cancelling of six Dr. Seuss titles by the publisher of the books. They also posed the question to the public in a survey and discuss the results. Juanita recites two of her mixed media poetry pieces for us. 

          Note: This discussion went longer than usual, as there was a lot to say on the subject so we have broken it into two parts.
