In the penultimate episode of Season 2, Kevin and Carson are joined by incredible actor Petey McGee (known for his recurring role as Salim Ashe Freeman on Power Book II: Ghost) for an inspiring and insightful conversation you won’t want to miss. 🔥

Petey opens up about his upbringing in Kansas City, Missouri and the journey that led him to the screen. A classically trained actor with a BA and an MFA under his belt, he’s worked in theatre across the U.S. before breaking into film and TV. He’s appeared in the short U Shoot Videos? (which premiered at Tribeca), Skin Deep (which he wrote and directed), and has made guest appearances on Chicago P.D. as well. 

In this episode, Petey discusses what it’s like working on high-level TV sets like POWER, how he balances those experiences with producing and creating his own work, and how Meisner training has shaped his artistry, approach to craft, and career mindset.

From navigating the industry to staying creatively grounded, Petey offers honest reflections on discipline, identity, and building a sustainable acting life. Whether you’re an actor, artist, or creative chasing your next level, this episode is packed with gems 💎🎧
