Off Off Pod - Episode 022 - Marc Palmieri – Actor, Writer, Webseries Creator
Marc Palmieri is a very smart and entertaining guy, an actor, writer, teacher, and dad. He tells some great stories about getting a screenplay of his made, some of his first survival jobs, his awesome webseries (The Thing), but the most touching part of the interview well may be when he tells the charming story of how he met his wife.
He and I met when a friend of mine was in a play which he was also in, and we all went out afterwards to a bar.  I instantly liked him because he was just fun to be around, but over the years since, I've been consistently impressed with the depth of his talent not just as an actor but also as a writer.
