Скачать или смотреть Punk Rock Buffalo & Jurassic Park: Whit Hertford on Art, Theatre & The Unexplainable | Ep. 36 🦬🎭

🔥 Welcome to Episode 36 of The DOD45 Show—straight outta Series 3, when we finally hit our stride. The format? Tightening. The pacing? Sharpening. The weirdness? Peaking. Sure, we’d made major leaps from the rough-around-the-edges days of Series 2, but we were still miles from the fine-tuned beast DOD45 has become past Series 7. And this episode was one of those key turning points.

For this one, Tai & Adrienne sit down with their long-time friend and all-around creative powerhouse Whit Hertford—actor, playwright, screenwriter, theatre director, AND punk rock philosopher. You may know him as the force behind the Riot Act Theatre, or maybe you recognize him from his acting days in iconic TV & film spots (hint: Jurassic Park's "He said I’m a nerd!" kid? Yep, that's him.)

💥 Tai busted out a wild ballpoint piece—a Punk Rock Buffalo hauling the Whitby Abbey on its back—while the convo with Whit spiraled beautifully into the kind of deep, introspective, slightly chaotic chatter that can’t even be summarized properly.
Honestly? You just have to watch.

They chop it up about: ⚡ The wild ride of theatre life & Riot Act Theatre’s no-holds-barred productions
⚡ What it’s like growing up inside the film industry machine
⚡ Life philosophies, creative process, existential musings—you know, all the simple stuff
⚡ Punk rock attitude and how it infiltrates everything
