This week, Tommy is joined by actor Skylar Astin, best known for his star-making role as Jesse in the hit Pitch Perfect franchise. Skylar has so many incredible credits to his name, but today we are talking about one show that millions of people are tuning into each week and for good reason. He currently stars in the hit CBS show, So Help Me Todd. Skylar stars as Todd, a directionless but talented private investigator who works alongside his mom (played by the brilliant Marcia Gay Harden), at her successful law firm. Today, he opens up about what its really like starring in a fast-paced dramedy, what’s coming down the line for the rest of Season 2, how he worked his singing into the series in an unexpected way, how the projects that turned him into a household name will forever hold a special place in his heart, the importance of living his life with gratitude and remaining humble in Hollywood, why he will never tell someone they can’t do something, and how his cast felt like “The Beatles of 49th street” during his Spring Awakening days.
