In today's episode we're chatting with Ben Barnes. This British actor (and skilled musician) has charmed audiences as the heroic prince in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian and surprised them as the enigmatic Logan Delos in HBO's science fiction thriller Westworld. His love for storytelling began early: on stage performing with the National Youth Music Theatre. Since then his career has told the story of an artist who possesses true grit, a love for craft, and a desire to explore whatever he hasn't done. He shares how blind persistence landed him his first agent, and how a secret injury helped him create one of his most recognizable roles. For Ben, perspective and perseverance is key. Moving through the peaks and valleys of this industry requires trusting what you have to offer and choosing to be empowered regardless of circumstance. And that's exactly what Ben continues to do. His work includes an array of diverse film and TV credits such as Easy Virtue, By The Gun, Seventh Son, Big Wedding, Sons of Liberty, The Punisher, Gold Digger and a lead role on Netflix's soon to be series Shadow and Bone.

In this interview, Joely Fisher, the secretary-treasurer of SAG-AFTRA, discusses the ongoing negotiations and strike authorization vote. She emphasizes the importance of unity, transparency, and debunking misconceptions. Fisher highlights rejected points by producers and the need to address dignity, humanity, and fairness in the industry. She emphasizes regulating AI to protect consent and compensation. Fisher urges actors to stand in solidarity, participate in picket lines, and support indie films. The interview concludes with SAG/AFTRA talking points and see the show notes for all the notices sent by SAG/AFTRA regarding what is allowed and not allowed during this unprecedented time. WHAT WE ARE ASKING FOR (SAG Talking Points): Compensation / Revenue Sharing Accepting the AMPT's final offer would mean that performers would be paid 5% less in real-dollar terms over the next three years than they were paid in June of 2020. As the streaming companies lowball actors and raise their subscription fees, their goal seems to be to reward shareholders at the expense of both their workers and their audiences. SAG-AFTRA has proposed a revenue-sharing model that would ensure that the casts of every film or series will share in the revenue that it generates for its streaming platforms. Health Care and Retirement Funding Employer contributions into the SAG-AFTRA Health Plan, the SAG Pension Plan and the AFTRA Retirement Fund are currently limited by episodic contribution caps that haven't changed in 40 years. SAG-AFTRA's proposal would increase these limits in line with inflation. Online Casting Platforms No one should be required to pay a fee to access work opportunities and equitable consideration. Because of this, SAG-AFTRA seeks to ensure a fair casting process. Artificial Intelligence Safeguards need to be put in place to ensure actors are always able to give consent and are compensated when their likenesses are used in the creation of new projects.

Jason Momoa was the FIRST one to audition for GAME OF THRONES and the LAST one cast a year later. His cousins impact on his life helped him make a strong choice that ultimately landed him the role. But it took him a few years and a couple of classes to trust his instinctive strong choices and learn how to "audition". BAYWATCH discovered him in his native home of Hawaii among a 1300 person cattle call. Jason responded to a radio call announcing the audition that would pay him more than the daily rate of folding T-shirts at the family owned surf shop. Jason's unique look has always made him a different choice but also made opportunities few and far between. So Jason, with many of his close friends, formed the production company Pride of Gypsies which has made Jason into an all around film maker, writing, producing, directing and acting. Jason will always be remembered for his unforgettable role as Drogo in season one of GAME OF THRONES. Currently, Jason is Aquaman in the DC Comics JUSTICE LEAGUE and AQUAMAN in 2018. Check out Pride of Gypsies' BROWN BAG DIARIES, ROAD TO PALOMA and BRAVEN.
