This week, co-host Jon Powell throws out a deceptively simple question: “Who is your ultimate ‘Hey, it’s that guy!’ actor?” What follows isn’t chaos (okay, not just chaos)—it’s a full-on celebration of the unforgettable faces you definitely recognize, even if you don’t know their names.
The Time Pals and the Character Actor Appreciation Hour dig into just how many times Noel Gugliemi has played a “Hector,” which Spaceballs actor believed he had psychic powers, how talented the voice actor behind “Chris Redfield punches boulders” really is, why DJ Qualls is supremely underrated, and so much more.
