Really Famous with Kara Mayer Robinson

The Young and the Restless icon Eric Braeden, aka Victor Newman, returns to Really Famous as we sit down at CBS Studios in Los Angeles, on the set of the daytime drama, to talk about the wildest and scariest times in Eric's life, his recent bout with bladder cancer, trauma and drama, making it in Hollywood, his penchant for fast cars and the shocking things he's done when he was pulled over by the police, his granddaughters, his veracity, and oh so much more. Plus, he compares me to Larry King. So that's fun too.

If you have mental illness in your family or know someone with narcissistic or borderline personality disorder, this one's for you. Actor Reid Scott (Veep, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, Why Women Kill) and I dive into personal stories and I share insight as a mental health expert in a special #mentalhealth episode of Really Famous, where Reid interviews me and also opens up about his family and their mental health struggles.

It's the second time Reid is on Really Famous and this time, he's asking the questions. And revealing personal stories. And getting feedback from Kara.

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson

Music: Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod - Incompetech - Creative Commons

Disclaimer: This is not a professional advice podcast. It is for entertainment purposes only. It is not intended as medical diagnosis, treatment, or advice.

A one-of-a-kind talk with one-of-a-kind actor Ed Begley, Jr!

Ed reveals why he spent most of his life as a con man (his words, not mine!), telling lies, breaking the law, doing drugs, drinking too much, cheating on women, and feeling like a victim. We also talk about living with Parkinson's Disease and how Ed changed his life around sometime between St. Elsewhere and Better Call Saul.

We get into a lot, including on:

• Old Hollywood stories involving icons like Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, drugs and the police
• Ed shares family bombshells – found out his mother wasn’t his mother.
• I call him out on being a liar.
• He reveals that he talks to Jack Nicholson (who nobody has seemed to hear from in a very long time).
• Better Call Saul - and our favorite, Patrick Fabian
• Playing Victor Ehrlich on St Elsewhere
• We have a very honest, candid conversation about living with Parkinson’s Disease after hiding it – and not knowing - for years.
• Ed brings me a copy of his new memoir, To the Temple of Tranquility...and Step on It, which you can get in my Amazon shop  ➤ https://amzn.to/3MukbEf 
• We bond over being optimists.
• I analyze Ed, in a nutshell.

Bonus:

At the end of today's show, I added a bonus 10-minute chat with Tim Friedlander, owner of soundBOX recording studio, where he gives us a whole bunch of fascinating factoids about voice acting and what goes on behind the scenes of our favorite movies, TV shows, commercials, video gamees and more. Stay tuned!

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson.

Hi friends, welcome back to Really Famous. You know how I sometimes invite a guest on the show and as we get into it, it starts to feel like we’re on some kind of a roller coaster ride? Ups, downs, random and sudden turns into place you never thought you’d go? Well, this is one of them.

Please join iconic actor Anthony LaPaglia (Without a Trace, A View from the Bridge, Frasier) and me for a roller coaster ride of emotions and laughs.

Today I’m pulling out my therapy hat. Not that I ever have it completely packed away, but today I’m talking to Tim Storey, pop-culture thought-leader, author, speaker, life strategist and counselor. At least that’s how he’s described in his bio. We talk about labels – including the labels we both have – and the variety of things we do with the goal of helping people.

So when he pull out self-help and personal growth gems in today’s show, I can't help but contribute my own theories and advice as a therapist. In fact, Tim even lets me anyalyze HIM. And his love life. Good stuff.

In the meantime, more background you should know about Tim: One of his first labels was “The Comeback Coach of Beverly Hills.” He coaches and inspires entertainment executives, celebrities, and professional athletes – and their kids. He gives big talks, trains Oprah’s staff, hosts The Daily Moment, a series of segments that run on Reach TV at airports and in hotel rooms, he’s a pastor, and he’s an author, of books like The Miracle Mentality, Comeback & Beyond and  Utmost Living.

Tim is also in a new documentary called Anxious Nation, which breaks down how anxiety has overcome so much of our world, especially recently, and especially for teens. It features impressive experts on anxiety, sheds light on how parents often unknowingly teach our kids to feel anxious, and offers practical advice on how to help people with anxiety through it.

I hope you walk away from this with a big insight or two. I think you will. And if so, I’d love to hear all about it. You can reach out to me, as always, at [email protected] or by following me on IG or Facebook at karamayerrobinson.com.

People ask Brian Baumgartner if anyone ever tells him he looks like that guy Kevin from The Office. Um, yes. They do. Because yes, he does. In fact, he IS that guy from The Office. But in real life, he's certainly not. You'll see for yourself.

In this fun chat about television, fame, New York vs. LA, chili, college kids, golf, Charles Barkley, Steve Carell, writing books, podcasting, firefighters, surfing metaphors, booking vacations, wearing Jams, Dunder Mifflin and more, Brian Baumgartner and I get to know each other and have a whole bunch of laughs and insights.

Plus he answers all our burning questions about Kevin Malone, if there will be a reunion or reboot of The Office (just wait to hear what he says!!!!).

Happy listening.

Criminal Minds, Criminal Minds: Evolution, The Virgin Suicides, 9-1-1 actor AJ Cook and I forgo the need for privacy and dish about it all: parenting, pregnancy photos, Mormonism (yes, AJ was raised Mormon), marriage, style (or lack thereof), beach life, risking it all for what's outside your comfort zone, anxiety, therapy tips, Joe Mantegna and more. AJ's onscreen kids are her real life sons -- what?!? She did what when she moved to LA? She goes to Utah why?!? She reacts how when fans recognize her?!? Sit back (or walk your dog or take the train or whatever you normally do when you listen to the show) and enjoy, my friends!

When Tim Daly and I sit down at his kitchen table for our 5th Really Famous talk, we didn't know we'd talk about snooping cameras, his Celtic blood, why he quit drinking on his father's birthday, QR code menus, family communication, intimacy, smoke detectors, his relationship with Téa Leoni, bodega owners, learned helplessness, fantasy relationships, Mohonk, why people ignore texts and emails, impatience, vanity, tomato sauce, Bobby Flay, his acting on Wings, what James Gandolfini told him, forgetting Madam Secretary, how handsome Tim is, the entertainment industry "shit show," selfies, and self-esteem. But we did.

You'll feel like you're right there with us, sitting at the table with your hands wrapped around a Really Famous mug, weaving from topic to topic and analyzing our individual takes on this crazy world we're living in.

Enjoy.

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson.

Music - Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod - incompetech - Creative Commons

Hollywood icon Dyan Cannon and I get to know each other and -- it's a gas. (Not sure why I'm using this expression because I never do, but something about it feels right.)

From her home in California, we get on a call. And mosey around the topics of love, approval, Cary Grant (Dyan's ex-husband), Ally McBeal, her Oscar nomination, directing, kids, Malibu Colony, growing as women, Hollywood, fame, family, housekeepers and happiness.

Enjoy!

Did you decipher the last thing Dyan says? Enlighten me!

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson.

It's Emmy Week on Really Famous! Every day you'll get a talk with one of this year's Emmy nominees. (The Emmys air Monday.) In honor of Steve Zahn's nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Limited Series for HBO's The White Lotus (my favorite!), here's my 2nd talk with Steve, which we taped last year, just days before he flew back to Hawaii to reshoot a pivotal scene for The White Lotus.

What do you think of when you think of actor Steve Zahn? That Thing You Do ... Sahara ... Dallas Buyers Club ... Friends ... Saving Silverman? 

After this 100% real talk, you'll think of something else entirely.

It's not an interview at all. It's two people catching up (a couple of years after we taped our first podcast together, which you can also listen to).

We talk:

• life
• notifications, algorithms and AI
• optimism
• regrets
• Kentucky
• Normandy
• buy a place or just visit?
• social media
• funny vs. serious
• family
• kids today!
• old movies + new TV series
• not being recognized

We laugh. We philosophize. We share TV show recommendations. Join us!

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson

Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod incompetech - Creative Commons

Actor Rhea Seehorn plays Kim Wexler on Better Call Saul, the prequel to Breaking Bad that’s having a STELLAR final season. And Rhea is FRONT AND CENTER.

We met when they had just wrapped season 4.

I really enjoyed this talk with Rhea, who you may also know from the show Whitney.

We also recorded a fun (and funny) video, which you can catch RIGHT NOW on my YouTube channel (YouTube.com/ReallyFamous), along with a few talks with Patrick Fabian, who plays Howard Hamlin on Better Call Saul.

You can also catch my earlier podcast episodes with Rhea's Better Call Saul co-stars, Michael McKean (Chuck McGill) and Patrick Fabian (Howard Hamlin), and Breaking Bad's Betsy Brandt (Marie Shrader).

I like Rhea.

Enjoy!

SWEET ENDINGS!

You get 3 bonus videos!

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson

Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod incompetech - Creative Commons

In a shocking twist, actor Julian McMahon (FBI: Most Wanted, Nip/Tuck, Charmed) turns the tables and interviews me! OK, maybe it's not shocking. But it is definitely fun. Not only will you hear stories about my teen years, rejections, failures, favorites, guest stories and more, but you will also get to know JULIAN better. (You'll see what I mean.) 

STAY TUNED for a brand-new interview, down the road, where we go back to normal and Julian is my guest and shares what he's up to now, after a successful run as the lead actor on FBI: Most Wanted.

TUNE IN NOW to our two other talks:

A very nice guy, as you'll witness here on Really Famous. You'll also see how his winning ways started - and the secret to their power and longevity.

So this is new! My talk with comedian, actor and podcaster Pete Holmes, who stars in a brand-new comedy that just premiered on CBS called How We Roll, was taped live in front of a hotel (and livestreamed) audience!  You'll hear a lot about that, plus Pete's very grounded and well-earned life strategies and philosophies, his stand-up comedy, his HBO series Crashing, and his podcast, You Made It Weird.

You'll also hear people! Plus a sneeze or two. And a few "bless yous."

Enjoy the ride.

Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod incompetech - Creative Commons

I've been telling you to watch Gomorrah for years. It's one of the best TV series ever - suspenseful, smart, sophisticated. But in the US, it's been hard to find. Now it's back - thank you, HBO Max! - and I get to sit down with the lead actor, Salvatore Esposito.

Salvatore isn't just the lead in Gomorrah (he plays Gennaro, aka Genny, Savastano). He's also a highlight of this season of Fargo (another great show), playing Gaetano Fadda, who you won't easily forget.

So! My talks with Salvatore go down in the books, for me, as some of my favorites. They're fun. And real.

And they're in English! You'd never guess from seeing him on Gomorrah that he speaks this beautifully. 

We talk:

• Gomorrah
• Season 5 finale
• Ciro de Marzio
• family
• love
• relationships
• life lessons
• struggles
• Naples, Rome, New York, Los Angeles, Texas, New Orleans
• learning English
• learning Italian
• words like mozzarella and grazie
• tourist traps
• HBO Max
• being a good person
  •

Music - Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod - incompetech - Creative Commons

Jason Ritter (Parenthood, Gravity Falls, Joan of Arcadia) and I have a beautifully honest (and fun!) conversation in this classic episode from 2019.

Fun Fact: I wanted Jason to be a guest on Really Famous since the day I started it. You'll find out why.

And...I was right! I knew I'd like getting to know him better. I predict you will, too.

You'll hear us talk about:

• Parenthood - why he loved it, which scenes made him cry (as a viewer!)
• People, perfection and the real deal
• The downside of potential
• Growing up with a very famous dad (actor Jason Ritter)
• What happened after his dad died
• Embarrassment and the Golden Rule
• Why he stopped drinking
• AA
• ADHD
• Therapy
• Fame (then vs. now)
• Our favorite TV shows
• The Bachelor
• The Carbonaro Effect
• Game of Thrones
• A few of his heroes who were guests on Really Famous:
  • Joe Mantegna
  • Michael Ian Black
  • Michael Carbonaro

Marilu Henner (Taxi, Evening Shade, Grease, Chicago) and I talk a mile a minute about EVERYTHING, from her incredible memory (it's called HSAM, or highly superior autobiographical memory) to party games to family to dating John Travolta and a few Taxi co-stars.

Such fun!

We crossed paths in New York City for just a few hours, so we went for it! On a Saturday night in late 2019, we got together and knew that our willingness to do this on the fly, between flights to and from Los Angeles, was a sign we'd have a really cool conversation. And we did.

Enjoy!

You'll hear Yeardley talk about:

• perfectionism
• success
• living up to your potential (or not)
• not being accepted to college
• Bill Murray's secret phone number
• winning an Emmy (and not feeling how you'd expect)
• on-camera work vs. voice work
• agents
• therapy

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson

Yes, it's true! Daniel Radcliffe and Steve Buscemi and I had a chat.

There's a backstory, which explains why this is an atypically short episode.

I share the story.

In the meantime, check out Steve and Daniel's show Miracle Workers, which just kicked off season 3 (Miracle Workers: Oregon Trail) on TBS.

You can also catch seasons 1 and 2 on HBO Max.

I have big questions for Daniel and Steve, of course. We don't get to them all, but we do cover a few very intriguing topics, like:

• If they're as lovable in real life as their endearing Miracle Workers characters
• How they feel about social media
• Who people think they are vs. who they really are, in real life
• What happens next

Internationally renowned psychologist and Emotional Intelligence guru Daniel Goleman, PhD, joins me and it's FASCINATING.

We analyze people's behaviors and habits (and we do it together because I'm a therapist, after all!). It's really fun and insightful. We analyze what happens in conversations, what we do when people say negative things about us, self-talk, texting, Zooming, celebrities I've interviewed, and my own peculiar habits.

I also share details on my work as a writer for The New York Times and WebMD and he talks about being a NYT science writer and editor of Psychology Today.

And there's a HUGE TAKEAWAY for YOU.

It's like the big therapists' and coaches' secret to shifting your life in a powerful direction. We reveal it on the show.

Plus we laugh. So don't mistake it for one of those boring, scientific jargon talks. We have a lot of fun.

In this unconventional episode, I'm sharing my encounter with the late and wonderful Gavin MacLeod, from 2014, when I met him on The Love Boat. Well, on the Regal Princess.

I talked to Gavin briefly, but not as briefly as I was supposed to. You'll see...take a listen.

Gavin, of course, played Murray Slaughter on the Mary Tyler Moore Show and Captain Stubing on The Love Boat.

Links to my talks with Gavin's co-stars, who were more than happy to talk about how wonderful Gavin was:

I'll be back next week with Tim Daly. Please stay tuned.

Lillo was a guest on Really Famous last year and it was pretty major, not gonna lie. He shared his whole story of becoming discovered – on the beach! – and getting involved with drugs, being involved in a fatal shooting, and going to prison. He also revealed his honest feelings about Chazz Palminteri, who was like a mentor to him, before things turned, well, they turned ugly.

Listen here:

Celebrity interview by Kara Mayer Robinson.

Music - Take a Chance by Kevin MacLeod - incompetech - Creative Commons

Skip Bayless and I get to topics big and small!

Skip, of course, is an award-winning journalist, author and TV personality. He hosts the sports opinion and debate show Skip and Shannon: Undisputed with Shannon Sharpe, and was previously on ESPN's Cold Pizza and First Take.

Fun fact! Skip’s brother is the talented and well-known chef Rick Bayless.

Skip and I met through his wife, Ernestine Sclafani Bayless, who just published a book called Balls: How to Keep Your Relationship Alive When You Live with a Sports-Obsessed Guy, which has a chapter written by Skip and contributions from some of their celebrity friends, like Michael Rapaport and Billy Bob Thornton.

In my wide-ranging talk with this total interviewing pro (who this time was the guest rather than the interviewer), we get into:

• His fascinating journey to becoming a huge TV sports guy
• Behind-the-scenes dish on his TV shows, Undisputed (weekdays on Fox Sports 1), First Take and Cold Pizza.
• Oklahoma, Texas, California, New York, Connecticut and Tennessee
• Shannon Sharpe, Michael Jordan, Joe Namath, Mark Shapiro, Dick Schaap and other interesting people in the business
• Lucky breaks
• A teacher who he'll never forget
• Growing up with two alcoholic parents
• His difficult childhood
• What his parents and his childhood did to help him become who he is today

Enjoy!

And there's a video too.

Catch it here: https://youtu.be/pjUQYrVTurY

Or simply go to YouTube.com/ReallyFamous.

This is a classic episode (Feb. 2020)
