Episode description

Michael Emerson (LOST, Evil, Person of Interest, Wakey Wakey) is truly fascinating - onscreen and offscreen.

We sit down in New York and get into deep thinking! Join us as we talk:

  • Lost
  • Benjamin Linus
  • The Island
  • The Others
  • Person of Interest
  • Harold Finch
  • His new series, Evil, on CBS
  • His theater acting, in plays like Wakey Wakey
  • dreams
  • mind games
  • method acting
  • character acting
  • acting techniques
  • childhood
  • loss
  • fame
  • career changes
  • screen-free evenings and conversations
  • philosophizing

It's good.

Oh, and if you'd like to see what Michael and I talked about the first time we met (a few years ago), here's my New York Times Sunday Routine piece, all about Michael Emerson:
