    • Comedy Interviews

Actor, producer, and think tank fellow Robert Anthony Peters (@robert3names) reminisces about the time his mom acted as his reader for a rather risqué self-tape audition (5:40). He also recalls the time he had to go very out of character for a Tower Records commercial audition where the director later described him as "a heavy metal Peter Pan" (9:45). And, of course, he shares the ridiculous Murphy's Law audition/performance saga of the part he eventually booked in the 2015 Michael Fassbender movie Steve Jobs (12:07). Finally, we finish it off with a plug for Robert's award-winning film Tank Man, a story about the famous protestor who stood up to the communist Chinese tanks in the June 4th, 1989 Tiananmen Square protests (www.tankmanfilm.com).
