All right. Hey, hello everybody. How's it going? And welcome to another wonderful episode of the bill.

Part cast. What's going on, Bert?

I've been wondering, Bill, with your growing acting resume. I want to talk about the first few things

you did where you were nervous and or fucked up and got like, I'm curious about the

first, because you you seem to me as someone very comfortable in the acting space. And I know that

like your growth and where you've gone to you, you often play like the brother at dinner. And then

you did the breaking bad shit. And now you're in the Mandalorian and all these things are going on.

I want to know about the very early stuff. Because I remember the first thing you ever booked was a sitcom

with Molly Ringwald, right? Mm-hmm. Way back in the day, yeah. Were you comfortable acting in that?

No. No, I replaced a guy that got fired. So I was like, wow, you can get fired. And I saw people

get replaced through the sitcom world as much as it's all just like, oh, dookie dookie dookie, you

know, these Cornball jokes and shit. It's still cuts, wrote, and it's about money. So if you're,

if the you do like run throughs and shit and if the industry wasn't failing you,

or the producers, you just were fucking gone. It wasn't like, you came in Monday, did a table

reading, they shot it Friday. You don't have time to find. And then if you come in as a replacement,

now it's fucking Wednesday. Yeah, you got today. Tomorrow, we're blocking Friday, we're shooting.

Okay. So, so that was your on townies, you showed up late. No, I replaced a guy that was in the pilot.

I replaced a guy that was, and there was no rhyme or reason for it. I don't even know why they did it,

but they did. And I remember there was like, they spent all this money on a big wedding scene.

So they were green screening me into it and had me stand exactly where he was standing. And like,

somebody came up to me and said, just do yourself a favor. Do not look at the monitor.

Because if I looked at the monitor, I would see he actor I was replacing. Oh my god.
