Tim Barnes chats with actor, comedian, writer, and comic book creator James III about navigating the industry through multiple genres and mediums. And, in the process, learns how a childhood interest in cartoons led to a lifetime of avoiding labels — the same way Bugs Bunny avoids Elmer Fudd.
James III is an American writer, producer and actor best known for Co-Creating and Co-Starring in the Netflix sketch series Astronomy Club (2019). James served as a Consulting Producer on the Nickelodeon series Young Dylan (2020) and was a Staff Writer on the reboot of All That (2019).
