This one is a must-listen for actors. Talent Agent Marion Campbell of Buchwald Talent in Los Angeles, who joined us as one of our monthly Guest VIP Zoom calls with the 10,000 NOs Insiders Community, advises our actor-members on their approach to handling, and pursuing, representatives. Much of her advice comes down to a few tenets: know yourself, know the business, know your place within the business, and then figure out, and express to your agent, what kinds of material, roles and collaborators you want to pursue.

And, as promised, here is the link to our past episode from 2021 with Marion: What Are Talent Agents Looking For in an Actor

10,000 NOs podcast is now in it’s 2.0 phase: after a long pause from late 2021 to late 2023, it has returned in a more raw format: shorter episodes, like the Monday Morsels of yesteryear (they may be short, solo riffs by Matt on central themes of the pod, excerpts from Matt’s 10,000 NOs Insiders Community Zooms, or excerpts from Insiders VIP sessions with VIPs from the entertainment interview and beyond). Be on the look out as, every now and then, we will likely drop some old school, long-form, classic 10,000 NOs interviews as bonus episodes.

The intent of this podcast is to remind people that they are not alone in their struggles. We aim to educate & inspire you with stories and conversations with others who have traveled a path that may look enviable now, but it was not always that way.

It is not the critic who counts. If you’ve been knocked down... get up, dust yourself off, and get back in the arena. If you want to give back, share this with someone who could use it and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen, so more people find this show and benefit from these conversations.

If you dig the show, CLICK HERE to learn how you can make this experience 3D by joining our 10,000 NOs Insiders Community: access to a members-only Facebook group, intimate, weekly Live video calls with Matt, including monthly drop-ins with some of his badass past-guests & VIP friends and more.
