On this episode, we have Tom Reilly, a veteran actor who I shared the stage with several times, doing Grey Gardens and Candide at the DMT. Norman and I talk about the #metoo phenomena and what men's roles should be - we also talk about Trump's response to the wife and mother of Sgt. LaDavid Johnson. We dive into the life of Tom Reilly - his upbringing in Washington DC and New York, his coming to the Bay Area in the late 70s and his views on how Bay Area theater has grown.
