John reminisces about his days on the set of Smallville, how miserable he is when he doesn’t have a job ahead of him, and the time he had sex with Freddy Mercury in London.

Last week if you haven't listened to it please listen to Kristen Krueger-Glano-Lang. She doesn't do very many interviews. So go back and listen to that one. That's really good. And the creators of Smallville, I don't think they've ever done any interviews. Well maybe they have, but this week the guy who played my father for seven years, I think six before I killed him and threw him out of a window.

What a glorious man. Such great stories. You can have to listen. I don't want to give anything away, but anyway John Glover is on the show. We talked about how I was so nervous because I thought he didn't like me in the pilot, but he was just, he was nervous. And that's why he was like, what are you talking about? I was nervous. And I don't hear very many interviews from him either. So let's get inside the one and only. I'm very excited about this. Let's get inside of John Glover.

What? See that's good right there. What? You haven't missed a beat. John Glover.

1:19.0

And the beat goes on. And the beat goes on. You have always been God, man. It's just this energy on set. Like people always say, I have an energy on set. When I come on, I think it's insecurity. I think I come on because I have to be on. I want people to like me. You're just innately just ready to go. You're on.

1:39.0

No, but I like people to like me too on sets and things or rehearsals is the place where I'm the happiest. Is that true? You're most happy on set working. Yeah. Because I can be somebody else.

1:52.0

That's true. And do you remember how we met or was on the pilot? I believe. Yes. And I was really nervous because I sincerely told you this. I sincerely thought you didn't like me.

2:02.0

I thought the guy who's playing my father and gran it. You're a method actor. You're not supposed to really like me. So to speak.

2:10.0

But that's part of your makeup sort of you sort of startle people. I mean, I remember on the set when we were shooting scenes and things that you sort of misbehave.

2:21.0

What would I do? Why don't you just shake it up? But you were looking for for you know, so it's fresh and everything. So because a lot of actors plot things out.

2:33.0

I'm one of my teachers used to say accidents are kind of the best thing that can happen to accidents. How like making your pants accidents or what kind of accidents you don't know.

2:41.0

You mean crapping in your pants? No, no, no, no, like that. It's just stuff if stuff goes different. The forces you to think to be you know present. Yeah. Yeah. And that's what you I figured out that what you were doing was was great for me.

2:56.0

Because it just it would sort of make me a little tense really. But that's what our relationship was like in the in the play. So you enjoyed working with me on those first few days of the pilot.

3:09.0

What? Well, I didn't know if you particularly like me because I knew you look all I had heard is sorry if I sound like a little bit on Norco because I had a next surgery. So I am a little bit out of it. If I scream.

3:21.0

You took a pain pill before you had to. Yeah, because I had to. I'm a little pin. I'm not on that. That's what they all say. I had to. Yeah, but I had to. I was really I was in rough. Should I almost canceled in the environment your buddy or my buddy said, hey, John's not going to be available till March.

3:36.0

That's it. You know on the show today. So you in an essence. You are blaming me for taking the Norco today because you had to you know be able to think. Well, I was going to take the Norco anyway. I needed to feel good today. You know, because I don't like to play the blame. You don't do drugs. Do you? Oh, no. Do you drink? Oh, no. There's a lie. Yes. You're lying to me. Right.
