You May Have Seen

Ups, downs, success, tumbleweeds, being shy, being part of the team, taking risks and ending up with a knife in your head. This episode has all of that and more. You May Have Seen Jayson Warner Smith as Gavin on The Walking Dead, Wendell Jelks on Rectify, and almost crashing in an airplane with Tom Cruise in American Made.

If you need Doctor #2, if you need a Headmaster, if you’re looking for Mr. Spretnak, if you want the best Assistant Embalmer, you’re calling this guy.  Sure, he’s had bigger and more recognizable roles in some of your favorite movies and shows. Sometimes, the smaller ones lead to the bigger ones. Sometimes, the bigger ones lead to…the next audition. This actor keeps showing up to do them, no matter what and he’s awesome! Probably a big reason why he’s been so successful.

What do Deputy Bud Skeeter, Agent Brick Davis, Dr. Dale Edson, Xander Hall and Glenn Guglia all have in common? This guy. They’re all him. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing this insanely talented, hysterical, thoughtful and insightful guy for several decades. You May Have Seen him on Better Things, The Rookie, Angie Tribeca, The Wedding Singer, The new Disney+ movie, Safety, and a great indie film called Funny Story. It’s Matt Glave!

You know this guy! No, you probably didn’t go to high school with him and, most likely, he didn’t date your sister. You May Have Seen him on all of the Law & Order’s, Blue Bloods, The Good Fight, The Resident, and most notably as Gordon Becker on Madam Secretary. It’s Mike Pniewski on You May Have Seen!

In a spontaneous and unscheduled appearance at my front door, I sit down with one of my oldest friends who also happens to have one of the coolest names in show business, GRAY HAWKS. You May Have Seen Gray on The Outerbanks on Netflix, Reckless and Sleep Hollow among many others. Come hang out with us as we reconnect after 20 plus years and talk about life in show business today.

What better way to get ready for the holidays with your family than to talk about politics. Right? Maybe not. My friend LANE MORRIS and I try to find out if it’s possible to get beyond the politics and communicate and connect as friends and neighbors despite our differences in opinions.

If you look up Blue Collar Actor, Hustler or Grinder in the dictionary, I’m pretty sure this guys face pops up. Every actor who’s truly trying to make a living working in this business needs to listen to TIM ROSS, whom You May Have Seen in The Vampire Diaries, Nashville, Hindsight and The Bay directed by Barry Levinson.

Here’s a question: With all the fear, anxiety, anger and divisiveness brought on by the 2020 election, is it possible to still connect, relate, appreciate and respect each other as humans, even if you completely disagree? I hope the answer is yes. I don't know. It’s been keeping me up for several nights. I want to try and find out. So, please join me and my good friend MIKE HARDING whom You May Have Seen in Just Mercy, and the Hulu series The Good Lord Bird.

You May Have Seen this actress, writer, producer, activist, speaker, master story teller, and jazz singer in the movie War Room, as well as TURN, The Vampire Diaries, Alley McBeal and Judging Amy. It’s KAREN ABERCROMBIE!

I have had the pleasure of listening to some amazing life stories here on YMHS, but this one might take the cake. Meet Mick Betancourt. Mick is a comedian, actor, writer and producer for such shows as CHICAGO FIRE, CHICAGO PD, LAW & ORDER:SVU, just to name a few. You May Have Seen Mick opposite Josh Brolin in Gangster Squad, or performing his stand up on HBO, Comedy Central, NBC and TBS.
