The Actor’s Guide to the End of the World

The SAG-AFTRA deal is heading to a member vote — and before you cast yours, you need to hear this episode.

We recorded this before the SAG-AFTRA National Board approved the tentative agreement, which makes everything we break down here an essential primer for what actors are actually being asked to sign off on. The streaming bonus structure, the 90-day window, the $40 million that never materialized — we get into the mechanics of why actors had problems with the financial terms in the contract in 2023 and why that matters to actors TODAY.

The biggest questions: Did actors have any fight left? And do they have any leverage right now? Judging from the details of the new deal, we're not so sure. 

E-Kan and Rían also talk about what taking power looks like - Issa Rae's new vertical is blowing up, and it might be a big sign of things to come with verticals and how it's shaping the entertainment industry.

Part 2 of the SAG-AFTRA contract drops next week. We're going deeper on the vote, what's at stake, and what actors should actually be asking before they decide.

This is your homework. Listen before you vote.

As for the podcast, this is a soft launch of Season 2 because why not? Also, we launched a Patreon link if you want to support the podcast.

Welcome to the Actor’s Guide to the End of the World Podcast, Episode 79!

E-Kan and Rían unpack some lessons of wisdom and inspiration from the conversation with Mel Rodriguez last week, including how he found balance in such a chaotic industry. From there, deep questions arise, like "Have you ever gotten to the breaking point of quitting acting?, "Do you feel like you're 'one foot in, one foot out' of acting?, and "Do you place too much of your self worth on your career?"

The guys also talk about the independent filmmaking spirit sweeping our industry, including how E-Kan started shooting a project he co-created, co-wrote, co-directing and starring in, this week.  He has many lessons and revelations after this experience, like how it might be a direction he wants to pursue more. 

And the biggest revelation - if he was a casting director, actors might hate him. He’ll get into how he discovered and hired an actor for his project from a voicemail he left. This is a good one, guys, and there are many lessons learned, including maybe don't have a private Instagram if you're an actor...

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, Episode 78 with special guest, Actor and Writer Mel Rodriguez (The Residence, Better Call Saul, Last Man On Earth).

E-Kan and Rían talk to the hilarious Mel Rodriguez who shares about his storied career, including the time he had to drive away from Hollywood with his wife when a phone call changed everything.  He landed the HBO cult favorite Getting On and turned things around. In this episode, Mel opens up about four seasons working alongside Will Forte on Last Man on Earth, how generous Bob Odenkirk was on Better Call Saul, learning from geniuses like Laurie Metcalf and Niecy Nash, and why the Shonda Rhimes set of The Residence felt like an oasis. Plus the audition tip that changed his process forever and how he dropped 170 pounds and was featured on Men's Health and Men's Journal. 

Hint: It started with one walk around the block. And the circle just kept getting bigger.  

This conversation is packed with inspiration, practical acting wisdom and a lot of laughs. Enjoy!

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, episode 77!  This week we break down what's really happening to the working actor right now. 

Over 2000 filmmakers and actors including Pedro Pascal, Florence Pugh and David Fincher signed a petition to block the Paramount-Warner Bros merger. E-Kan and Rían discuss why Damon Lindelof's brutally honest post about why he was afraid to sign it — and did anyway.

Ben Affleck secretly built an AI company since 2022 and just sold it to Netflix for $600 million. We have the numbers — and they're not pretty for below-the-line workers. The irony isn't lost on us either how his model is to focus on the humanity behind filmmaking.

To add to it, USC just launched an AI "institute" for actors. Who exactly is that serving and how is the youngest generation going to learn the craft? 

And a practical real world story from an actor who showed up to an in-person callback only to realize the casting directors were Zooming in from another room down the hall as they stood alone in a room with a computer screen. It sparked a bigger question every actor needs to hear: How do you keep your power when the room gives you nothing?

The guys also dig into the power of  "reverent irreverence", why you might not want to learn how to swim from

Michael Phelps, Robert Redford's advice for not gripping on to tight, and why E-Kan’s parents are the coolest.

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, Episode 76!

Holly Shervey and Emmett Skilton, friends of the show and the creative force behind “Crackhead”, the New Zealand hit series now streaming on HBO Max. The show, which Holly stars in and wrote while Emmett directed, is based on Holly’s personal experience in a psychiatric clinic early in her life and has been getting rave reviews, sitting at the top of the charts alongside “The Pitt” and “Euphoria”.

This episode, E-Kan and Rían get a treat and hear the entire journey, before the network deals, the cold call pitch to Warner Bros, how Holly and Emmett self produced TWO hit series, “Auckward Love” and “Millennial Jenny” before tackling the riskier and uncompromising “Crackhead”.

This is a valuable lesson in creating your own content, finding the story that only you can tell, and why budget doesn’t mean “fu** all”. And how this creative dynamic duo discovered verticals before they were even a thing.

On top of it all, Holly and Emmett just had their first child within weeks of their show premiering. This is an even better love story- you’ll also hear how Emmett was one of the things on Holly’s vision board that came true…

This is a master class in finding your truth and listening to your gut.

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, Episode 75!

There is Jonathan Majors’ drama on his latest movie for, wait for it, Daily Wire..? Jonathan Majors and his costar fall through a window which highlights the importance of safety measures taken on set, labor rights, and sparks a larger conversation about working in today’s film industry. E-Kan and Rían dive into the drama, including a crew walk out and retaliation by the producers.

Meanwhile, we have a SAG-Aftra negotiations update and breaking news for the WGA (the writers guild) and what exactly is the Tilly Tax? The guys have an honest conversation about the industry as an actor right now. What can an actor do right now? And how important it is to let your voice be heard to SAG's leaders. 

To add to the mix - the very first completely AI generated TV series just got launched.. and not one actor had to go to set. How valuable are its performers and crafts people in Hollywood right now? E-Kan also brings up how many actors regret giving their likeness to AI companies after finding their faces on ads they had no idea about. This is what you need to know right now as an actor in Hollywood.

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, Episode 74! A Los Angeles jury found Meta and YouTube liable for knowingly designing addictive platforms that harmed children — and with 1,500 similar cases waiting in the wings, this verdict is just the beginning. E-Kan and Rían break down what it actually means, why this might be Big Tobacco all over again, and what actors need to know about it. 

Then — OpenAI quietly pulled the plug on Sora 2, their AI video platform, taking down a billion dollar Disney partnership with it. The guys will discuss why this is a signal, not just a headline and the many reasons why this venture bombed.

Plus, our first ever FAQ segment, answering burning questions actors are actually asking right now, like what’s a fair cut that agents and managers should take, why no one’s talking about some that are charging 20%, and the actual number of actors that are going up for a role.

Welcome to the Actor’s Guide to the End of World, Episode 73!

E-Kan and Rían go DEEP this episode, and even talk affirmations and mindset. But before we go down the rabbit hole, we have word about a possible U.S. federal film tv tax credit. The guys will break down everything you need to know as well as why U.S. might need one, and what Noah Wyle has to say about it.

Meanwhile across the pond, UK just committed 9 billion in production just last year, and Ireland is booming with indie films, including Ethan Hawke's "Blue Moon" this Oscars' season.

The plot thickens.

E-Kan and Rian then talk mindset and how limiting beliefs are quietly (and not quietly) killing careers. Coleman Domingo never once believed he was a struggling actor while waiting tables- so why should you?

Rian gives us an update on the Artists way journey, how it’s changed how he looks at creativity, and why David Bowie is the ultimate inspiration and E-Kan shares how one conversation about his hair changed everything for him. You’ll also hear one new way of doing affirmations E-Kan started using.

Practical wisdom. Real stories. No fluff.

Welcome to the Actor's Guide to the End of the World Podcast, episode 71! The Oscar race just flipped, and now Michael B. Jordan is now the favorite to beat Timothée Chalamet for Best Actor.  Was it Michael B. Jordan's win at the SAG Actor Awards or Chalamet's comments about ballet and opera? Both? We break down what he said, why it matters to Oscar voters, and the surprising family connection that makes it even more interesting.

E-Kan and Rían got the full betting odds breakdown across every major category, and our picks for who wins and who should win.  You will also hear gems like the inside story of how Ryan Coogler and his casting director hunted down Miles Caton, a high school kid touring the country as a musician — and turned him into the heart of Sinners. A lesson in the power of casting, and the guys talk about the very first Casting Oscars this year. 

Plus — the tip Chalamet learned from LeBron James about how to perform at the highest level. 

Jessie Buckley is running away with Best Actress, but plenty of drama in the other categories, like Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress is a 3-way war, and Best Picture is Paul Thomas Anderons's to lose. Get ready everyone- The Oscars are this Sunday! And Monday we'll have our Oscars Reaction episode!
