Steve and Tananarive welcome powerhouse actor David Dastmalchian, star of Shudder's Late Night with the Devil -- also from Oppenheimer, Suicide Squad (Polka- Dot Man!), Dark Night, Last Voyage of the Demeter and other films. A candid conversation spanning his earlier struggles with addiction, why the idea of playing Jack Delroy on Late Night with the Devil scared him, how his family has inspired him -- and how he feels about the film's AI controversy (based on 15 seconds of interstitial art). 

And, of course, how he manages the work/art/life balance!
