Summary

'Stranger Things’ star Gaten Matarazzo joins the show. Over sushi and cappuccinos (yes, really), we talk about his remarkable journey from child performer to seasoned Broadway star and Netflix favorite. Gaten shares what it was like to commute from New Jersey to perform in Les Misérables as a kid, the surreal audition process that led to his breakout as Dustin in ‘Stranger Things,’ and how it feels to say goodbye to such a defining project. He also opens up about living with cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD) and how he’s using his platform to raise awareness and empower others.
