Today’s guest is actor, John Emmet Tracy. You will know him as Ellis Steele from Yellowstone, the modern western epic on the Paramount Network and Amazon Prime. We chat about his character’s adaptive qualities, artistic moments versus story momentum, and playing villains—aka the misunderstood. He kicks off our interview by sharing a story that his dad told him. The opening: glove and bat in hand, a young man stands outside a baseball stadium… A very big thank-you to Sam Aitken from the Childrens’ Heart Network for making this interview happen.
