Mark and Nicole welcomed Brad Forenza, the creator of the award winning radio play Around The Sun to the lighter side of the dark side for a wonderful conversation.

Brad talked about how growing up in Jersey City has made him identify as a New Yorker, even though he is in a different state. He was able to turn his short plays to a serious of audio plays called Around the Sun which features such acting luminaries as Vincent Pastore, Robert Funaro and Maureen Van Zant from the Sopranos, Marsha Mason (the Goodbye Girl), Austin Pendleton (My Cousin Vinny), Sally Struthers (All In The Family), BD Wong (Father of the Bride), Piper Laurie (Carrie), Richard Kind (Mad About You), Richard Kline (3s Company), Mindy Cohn (The Facts of Life), Bruce Villanch (Hollywood Squares) who apparently has a crush on Brad’s stepfather and many many more. Brad details how he was able to work with such illustrious actors, discuss his writing process, what it is like to win podcast awards (Mark is so jealous) and what is in store for Season 3 which takes a departure from previous seasons and features 95 year old legend Estelle Parsons (Bonnie and Clyde) Francois Clemens (Mr. Rogers Neighborhood), comedian Judy Gold and another all star cast.
