Pursuing a career in acting is no easy feat. There's not a whole lot of financial stability, you're traveling constantly, and if you find success it can easily warp you pretty quickly. So how do you pursue a fruitful career in acting and be a normal functioning human that can raise a family? Say you want to get married, have kids, keep a garden that doesn't find a swift demise. How do you do that?!
Today we talk to Damon Carney, an actor that you've seen fight (and lose his head to) freaking Wolverine in Logan, be a Texas Ranger in Gore Verbenski's The Lone Ranger, and has starred in countless other roles over the past two decades. He's a happily married man with kids, and even runs his own deli in his home town of Arlington, Texas. Needless to say, Damon has been making it work and living his best life for quite a while. In today's episode, he shares his life experiences and tells a few awesome on-set stories while he's at it.
Check out Damon in Logan here:

Sound department is an extremely important, but somewhat enigmatic department on the set. So much focus goes on the picture, the framing, the wardrobe, the makeup, the artwork, and then... sound. Oh yeah! You have to hear the movie too!
Today we sit down with one of Oklahoma's best and most experienced sound mixers, Kabe Cornell. He has worked on literally every single type of project. Feature films, short films, documentary, live sports, reality, you name it and he's done it. Kabe walks us through the department and equipment, the basics of boom operating, and wiring actors (like Tyra Banks!)
