I'm to be a kid who. You know I was born over saint Elizabeth's in Brighton and in my mom's from Belmont my dad's from Newton and then we moved up to to Nashua and in the late 60s. And to be -- who grew up in Nashua. And suddenly finds himself in Hollywood kissing Heather locklear a movie got to -- it was -- definitely have to pinch yourself now of course the kiss was. Sort of me forcing myself on her but that's in the store does that but that's a pattern in yellow -- got -- I'm not quite what I want to say well you know I H I have a man have three children with her. Coming out of boys have -- we have a daughter Fiona that she's for a halfway have a son Schamus who's two and a half from the sun -- Clinton whose two months old to. An -- only -- mean these -- all the -- I was reading your bio it says his wife gave birth to a new baby -- and -- says his wife Lisa gave -- yes -- saying why -- excellent -- we met at a Super Bowl party here in on Columbus street Newton about 14 years ago did you really as -- you know those are -- I don't -- when -- you know what -- do you understand that you -- decorated -- and and growing up by you know might -- you know obviously -- the last -- my brother. Aunts and you know -- Nashua this is still mostly you know does not on there war at that time a lot of Irish Catholics up in Nashua that was considered out on -- my brother's name is -- And so he was always known as -- 16 -- in every class always still to -- I -- this -- that you mentioned with Eddie -- somebody -- they -- release -- always -- my -- so -- he's -- his first -- William -- as a singular -- competition especially -- since -- really became -- very -- around -- There's not many Schamus is today out and -- are you saying you chose these a little less known names in order to have unique -- and I think for them you know I I just right I thought it was kind of cool to have and I also think that. With -- O'Malley this certain -- ago well within this there's others that don't are getting that part but I don't know why they -- Irish -- and did you consider Irving for example though I did not Irving O'Malley -- nice rhythm to have a lot of you know my visa. I'm Irish all the way back from my parents and I I just there was a nod to tradition admired.

How do you get from -- New Hampshire to being in movies and kissing famous actresses because you -- look at use some people you understand why they're in the movies right off the bat and.

Other people he realized they had to work again looked -- eyes -- I don't want to see me you know -- categories angle so what category that is he reverence and I think right now and I expressed my got a Hollywood beaches. And buffed bodies -- when I first moved out to Hollywood I still had hair that looked like Greg Brady and it's failed to body that was as it is -- right now happy by Bob Wright -- by all gone. You know I think -- one it was a huge huge baseball fan and wanted to cut by the freshman team in high school I thought maybe it's going to go altered tales.

at city it it's like going to Vegas and San I'm coming home rich at the end of the weekend to go to Hollywood and -- going to be big in movies and TV and people look at you we're talking about jealousy and how. You know certain groups of people like to keep you down and and get mad when you're successful and when you look at a guy like especially just look at -- computers rolled out of better after four -- baseball cap on you that your. You I don't know where you found that T sure but it was obviously a long time ago.

And a couple of sell them over to souvenir store Fenway Park say how what is likely to be a movie star around. Well I think one of it is it is that you know and I was the same as to a kid last basic out the -- move out to Hollywood megabyte you know it's so hard and I said listen man. Okay if honestly if that's how you look at it stay home now. You know what part that I'm never any right to tape it's so hard because what they're counting on is for people to say it's so hard that they're not having going to try. And I and I think you hear it from. It is sort of the one profession least that I know of -- the first time you say I'm an actor or want to be an actor that everybody has a ready made insult okay what restaurant do you going to be -- even even now if I meet somebody in this they're not aware of the army -- letting her that -- were -- 4 am what I do you know they're like you know that they assume that they haven't seen me in anything or that I haven't done anything or that you don't work insult. I think that aspect of this idea that you are entering a career where it's really like a lottery ticket no gates succeeding in it and that there's a lot of heartbreak in it. That when I was in college at the university in New Hampshire I just had a couple professors who were able to save that but also say put -- what you must do for your cat. The thing is -- to succeed in this business so many people along the way so many people. Have to just believing your parents your friends I mean I would put on plays that I wrote you know myself in New York that we produced and on my friends from UNH in all my friends from you know national in the Boston area they drive down there they'd you know dates by the tickets to see the play -- all of this encouragement. I mean -- I didn't have my first series until I was. You know 33 years older or you know my first big series and then that that was canceled after two episodes I mean you talk about jealousy and things that making yourself -- in coming back from failure how you do that it's so. It's social difficult and that's when it's really hard because when you're going the long -- and and you don't necessarily hear what people are saying about you going for an audition. You leave the room. You don't necessarily here you know people say he stinks right here how we looks at. It's when you -- actually do something and they you worked really hard on a project. Like when I had the Mike O'Malley show on NBC like I said it lasted two episodes are here I'm here I am a guy from Nashua at all lot of guys that only lasted one Apple plays well here's what happens they give you assure people like will -- Is money isn't given out sitcoms I'm going to keep taken yeah right -- upset when you go out do you work really hard and then all of sudden people are writing I think this guy stinks yep I wouldn't you like wait a minute just that and I'm just trying to doesn't matter you've got yourself in the form where the sport. For people who.

Who used to draw blood -- plea droplet AM I'm curious to unity as -- Carmel California Florida yes no we live in our Los Angeles yes so what's that this is actually -- I don't I assume by passionate describe for you. But I'm assuming this must be great to come home yet it is -- you know it and my wife and I talk about coming back to Boston you know after we've you know socked away a little bit more money and letting our kids. It's is there is a sensitive like mindedness about where you come from what's familiar to you and sort of the shared history that. That you have back here. You know at Los Angeles don't get me wrong the letter yesterday task -- get -- great question it's traditional moon there are out to make money -- that's the only reason they moved there it is not there is not the sense of community. That there is -- sure that's what stuff about it -- you Ab series to a great last night you Steve Sweeney Tony vis the other guys that you mention it was George right hand. And -- pat Harrison stamina and I heard that CNN was there that's -- for another half the Hollywood hasn't done well and there are -- on our -- Harrison's Clemens as the comedian as -- was a great cause of Michael -- was remarkably generous hate teller I want to find out a little bit more about cute yes so my kids so weak so we just had we have a -- have fuel to their two month old we lawyer -- with some more pulled his name is -- Jacqueline we out where it's it's so it's hard to leave them we just -- circumcised he did yes we oh that's a now let's.

Controversial thing now it is you know what's interesting is is now we have to do it -- that we could be the three amigos my two sons and I but -- think about it now what's interesting about this about this issue so you're worried about a visual discrepancy is bar bear I'm just going to say this even though I did it to myself on. It is. The the issue detectives and -- you know of no I did not hold on please I would go anywhere I know you what I can't I get kind of gets from all the -- that steady I can't cotta pieces stake in a straight line let alone my xsilence about that responsibility. You know what's amazing though though if you really look at it. You know and I went back when -- going -- you're going back to. The acts of the apostles okay. The explosion of christianity basically happens okay it really got like it's just kind of like a little cult and likely that -- some believers and Elvis and the acts of the apostles embargoes you know what everybody -- you guys don't have to do this. A sudden. Christianity a violent -- we asked for it and I don't think my unit off patent. Let's go ward I mean that's what happens so as Catholics. We are doing or is that just -- here it was good market a brilliant based duplicate state two things about circumcision white -- number one -- if there's one piece of the body and can keep clean don't you think that's I mean what are you like a ready made excuse when your your 14 years called in your mother's lap.

Yet how I got -- you -- odd man. Our original blog and watching it was it a lot of thought you know we're here. That was the bar I have artwork here and there aren't.

The other reason we ask you this Michael that it should look like Dan. This is. Not spent a lot of time looking bother an orchard one. Well if people aren't spending a lot of time you'd -- issued calls -- social services I don't know. You know when people say that -- can -- my wife afterwards and 40 years old. It it's nothing to aspire towards okay it can't just look at me it's that -- hope never turned 41 day if that's what it's going to look like me. And so the fact that now. On the flip side -- you don't woman who is is married to a writer that that used to work with who said that older men. -- circumcised to she's a nurse at cedars -- it becomes a big issue for them because -- just you know -- think about -- really really you know this segment was really was and I you know I want a couple thousand what we -- Iraq on a lot -- out of I don't lovely -- you're bringing up and say -- I do think it's a -- Bart -- that run -- drinks a -- and re -- and we'll be back in a moment -- 680 WR --
