Terry O'Quinn: The Full Conversation

We understand that with the short-form nature of our show (30 minute episodes), that sometimes the conversations with our guests leave our listeners wanting more. Well, we're here to deliver. In an extended cut of our conversation with actor Terry O'Quinn, he candidly speaks about his experience growing up in a family of 11 with a father who was a prominent and sometimes intimidating figure, and raising his two sons in Maryland, working hard to make a living as an actor. Topics we discuss include:
 

• The implications of having a father who is also your school principal
• Moving your wife and kids around the country for months at a time
• Going to see a movie that you didn't know your DAD was in
• Hitchhiking in Hawaii
• The trend of recreating successful films
• Financial strain
• The joys of grandkids
• Terry's parenthood advice for young actors
• The rise of "binge watching" and "watch parties"
• Alec Baldwin's babies
• The Stepfather 1, 2, and the reboot
• What NOT to say in the delivery room when you set eyes on your newborn for the first time
