I wanted to share the lovely Miss Karleen Griffin with all of you. She's an unbelievable and quite accomplished model and actor. Definitely one of my inspirations. She's also the founder of ASABA - Actors Supporting Actors Bay Area. Take a listen as she shares a little about her life in this industry as well as some of her inspirations. She's a beautiful soul through and through.

Granted, there's a guarantee that someone listening to this episode will be pissed off, upset or disappointed in some of the things said by Ant. With that said, it should be known that Ant does not have any hate or ill will towards anyone. Nor does anyone in the Pruitt family.

Since someone hasn't been on the stage in over a week, there hasn't been much else going on for them — Unless it was on the television screen. Also, there's a fun challenge featuring the beloved Miss Alison Hammond.
