Episode Description:
This week Nick sits down with a man who needs no introduction, John Rhys-Davies. John is a friend of the show and we were extraordinarily honored to have him join the ranks of Neutral Position guests. Join us as John tells stories he’s never before told, and be sure to watch all the way through for a surprise visit from everyone’s favorite Dwarf.
John Bio:
From one of the greatest book-to-film adaptations of all time to one of the best adventure film series ever John Rhys-Davies has done it all. Starring as Gimli the Dwarf in Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings trilogy as well as Sallah in the Indiana Jones franchise. The Welsh actor has done it all and then some.
