I'm joined by Lily Padman. Hi. Today, we have one of my favorite actors on. I've been slowly becoming obsessed with him. I got a handful that I follow that I'm really intrigued by, and this is one of them, Jon Bernthal.
I'll be honest, because that's what we do here. When I first saw him, I was like, oh, I don't know who that is. And then as soon as I saw his face, I was like, oh, I do. He's in everything.
He's in absolutely everything. I think so many, most people will probably know The Walking Dead because it was such an enormous hit.
And he was in King Richard.
Yeah, King Richard. And everything. The Punisher. He is The Punisher. The accountant with your boyfriend.
Mm-hmm.
Daredevil, Fury, and he has a new movie in theaters now, The Accountant 2.
Also with my boyfriend.
With your boyfriend. But one thing we didn't get to in the interview, which I really wanted to, we ran out of time, we had him for so long, is he has a really cool project in Ojai. Called Ironbound. And it runs from May 9th to May 11th and May 16th to May 18th. And he will star alongside actress Maren Ireland in an immigrant blue collar story. And he has put his whole life and passion into this theater project in Ohio. And I hope people will go check it out May 9th through the 11th and 16th through the 18th.
Once you hear this interview and you hear his acting background, you're going to want to see that.
Oh, he's a monster.
Oh, my God. What a story. His story felt like a movie.
Yes, a thousand percent.
Please enjoy Jon Bernthal. You know those creepy stories that give you goosebumps? The ones that make you really question what's real? Well, what if I told you that some of the strangest, darkest, and most mysterious stories are not found in haunted houses or abandoned forests, but instead in hospital rooms and doctor's offices? Hi, I'm Mr. Balan, the host of Mr. Balan's Medical Mysteries. And each week on my podcast, you can expect to hear stories about bizarre illnesses no one can explain, miraculous recoveries that shouldn't have happened, and cases so baffling they stumped even the best doctors. So if you crave totally true and thoroughly twisted horror stories and mysteries, Mr. Ballin's Medical Mysteries should be your new go-to weekly show.

He's an upchange man
My wife is disgusted by beards. I just got off of this movie. I just got back from Africa. And now we got kind of word that not the next thing I'm doing, but the one after that, they want to keep the beard. And I think the beard's going to play in it. So like this beard ain't going nowhere.
Yes. Everyone's got to get comfortable, make peace with the beard. And that's like not happening in your family.
In your personal life.
She's like truly disgusted. You had a great mustache and it was like a comedy. No, it wasn't. King Richard. Yes. The tennis guy. Big, bushy. Yes. Long. It's impressive. Big.
It's disgusting. And then this thing just accentuates it. So, you know, it's funny, man. I come from a family, like my whole family sort of reminds me. My brothers are really good looking. My nose has been broken a ton of times. I was born with these giant ears. I like hate the way that I look. Yeah. Yeah, me too.
But I look at you and I'm like, you're gorgeous.
You guys look similar.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, I guess we've got like the big- Well, let me ask you. I made a decision where I'm like, this isn't the face I wanted. So I guess we're going tough? I'm going to embrace being masculine?
Are your brothers pretty?
Listen, we got to get into his brothers. They're like the Romney family. No, not.
