    W. Earl Brown "Keepin' My Gratitudes Higher Than My' Expectations"

    If ZZ Top's "La Grange" were an actor, it would be our next guest. While I might not fully grasp what this means, I do know that "La Grange" is one of my all-time favorite songs. Our next guest embodies a unique vibe, one that can only be created by a man born in Golden Pond, Kentucky, bringing the essence of Appalachia to film and TV. After graduating from DePaul in 1989, he started performing at the esteemed Steppenwolf Theatre. He stole our hearts as Warren in "There's Something About Mary" and made us want to drink bourbon and smoke opium in "Deadwood." He could have stopped there, but he went on to become the quintessential guy we love in countless other films and TV shows.  He's blown us away in Deadwood, Something About Mary, True Detective, Draft Day, Black Mass, The Master and so many others.  During todays show we dive into art as a way of live, losing out on roles to our heroes and the absolute humor in mistaken identity. We share our love for the poets of a bygone era. We honor ol' Earl Brown for truly being one of the best to do it. Welcome to the show, the great Earl Brown.
