Kevin Liang is a first generation Taiwanese American that eschewed cultural norms to go to film school and become a producer (General Education) and P.A. Kevin tells us about his moral struggles with the entertainment industry and the inner battle he fought and won.  Later, he would discover an aptitude and appreciation for firearms and become a tactical firearms instructor with the hope of changing the relationship people have with the tools and a focus on education, responsibility and safety. Kevin is one of the nicest humans in the world, and I challenge you to dislike him...it's impossible. This is Those Who Do: Gunslinger in L.A. w/ Kevin Liang!

Before there was Those Who Do, there was Those Who Did.  Prior to beginning Those Who Do: The Podcast, Zac and his buddy Eric traveled to comic book conventions in the hopes of talking to convention goers and industry professionals alike to find out why they did...what they did.  In this episode from the archives, Zac and Eric talk to Chad Lindberg (Supernatural, Fast and the Furious, Sons of Anarchy) about his first Wizard World (Now Fanexpo) convention and why he has enjoyed his time there so thus far.  They also meet friend of the show James C. Burns for the first time (2011) and hold on for the ride then as they do now as James talks about his love for his fans and Michael Bay.  Zac and Eric also chat with two fantastic cosplayers about the inspiration for their characters and...why they did...what they did.  Please enjoy this vault episode of Those Who Did: Wizard World Comic Con w/ Chad Lindberg & James C. Burns!

Dr. Lily Erdahl is a loving single mother of two children originally from Iowa City, Iowa.  She's also an accomplished surgeon, educator, and podcast host.  In this episode, Lily discusses her voyage from Iowa State University as a wide eyed undergrad through her medical training in Pennsylvania and Minnesota to her current position at the acclaimed University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics back in her home town.  She discusses the rigors of working in the medical profession and the challenges of balancing her very important work as a breast surgeon with her equally important work as a mother raising smart and healthy children while sharing her emotional health with both patients and her kids.  Lily talks about how divorced homes can still remain a family, the science of breast cancer, her Lazarus like pet cat, and much much more!  This is Those Who Do: Surgeon w/ Lily Erdahl M.D. 

James C. Burns is an actor (Michael Bay’s Transformers), musician, and voice artist (Sergeant Frank Woods – Call of Duty Black Ops).  Most importantly, he’s a master raconteur.  I’ve known James for over 10 years and he was the first entertainment industry interview back when I was just a podcasting baby.  You don’t interview James.  He’s a force of nature and you just hold on for the ride.  James drops by Zac’s hotel in Burbank so we can discuss politics, gun ownership, philosophy, gender roles, the economy…maybe it would be easier to list what we didn’t discuss.  Penguins never came up.  Please enjoy Those Who Do:  Renaissance Man w/James C. Burns
