This is Tommy’s story of going from fully connected to completely unplugged when it comes to wearable tech, and why life on the other side feels oh so good. For anyone looking to create a little more space, presence, and peace in your relationship with technology, this episode is for you.

This week, Tommy is joined by Nathan Mitchell, best known for his role as Black Noir on The Boys and Zion on Ginny & Georgia. This conversation is spoiler-free, and a huge celebration of The Boys as we near the series finale dropping tomorrow. Nathan opens up about stepping into the physically demanding and largely silent role of Black Noir, and how he embraced the challenge of building a character through movement rather than dialogue. He reflects on learning early on that the character would remain masked and voiceless, and how that limitation ultimately became a creative strength. As The Boys heads into its final episode, Nathan shares what it’s been like to say goodbye to the role, the emotional weight of filming major moments, and how he approached evolving from the original Noir into a completely new version of the character.

The conversation also dives into the behind-the-scenes realities of the show, from intense stunt work and navigating the iconic suit to the shocking moment he learned of Noir’s fate and unexpected return. Nathan teases what fans can expect from the final episode while also sharing his own ideas for a potential spinoff. Beyond The Boys, he teases the upcoming season of Ginny & Georgia, shares fan reactions to his character Zion, and how he balances multiple roles across very different worlds.
