Martin Harris has delivered stand-out work on “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel,” “Young Sheldon,” “NCIS: Los Angeles,” “Stranger Things,” and now he plays the Boravian General in “Superman.” On this episode he describes the surprisingly efficient production that James Gunn presided over, and how it felt like “shooting a party video.” He surmises why directors keep giving him more scenes on-set, how reading a book between set-ups not only gets you focused but is also a conversation-starter, why he credits Kobe Bryant with helping him get to the next level with his career, and much more.

Jason Patel
Jason Patel is an emerging actor and artist. He plays the lead role of “Aysha” in “Unicorns,” opposite Ben Hardy. It’s his feature film debut. The film is co-directed by Sally El-Hosaini and James Krishna Floyd, who also wrote the screenplay. "Unicorns" also features Patel’s music, a true fusion of both art forms. On this episode, he talks about how he approaches everything in life with creativity and love, and why his life goal is to make people happy even when he’s not there. He describes the giant role music plays in his preparation, the importance of staying in the moment, why doing the important sex scene on the first day of production on “Unicorns” was actually beneficial, and much more.

David Malinsky
For the 350th episode of Back To One, I sat down with an actor who brings me great joy when he’s on the screen, the one and only David Malinsky. He wrote the blurb himself for this episode. It follows: Peter has only met David three times in person before. His filmography includes Onur Tukel’s “Abbey Singer/Songwriter,” “Black Magic for White Boys,” “Poundcake,” Theodore Collatos’ “Tormenting the Hen,” MG Cinecraft’s “A Moderate Folly” and more. Dave has also done standup comedy, cabaret singing, and YouTube Video Essays. But Dave thinks it’s vital to situate acting within art and human history, now and in the past. This meandering conversation covers spirituality, identity, railroads, gaming, and how all art—and all consciousness—is related to each other. But Dave, a self-described hardline materialist, would just call it how things work. Visit his YouTube channel here.

Erik Jensen
Erik Jensen is a multipyphenate who, along with his wife and creative partner Jessica Blank have been called “the foremost practitioners of documentary theater in the U.S.” Their genre-defining plays “The Exonerated,” “Aftermath,” “Coal Country,” and “The Line” were all critically acclaimed. As an actor, Jensen’s credits include “The Walking Dead,” “Mindhunter,” “Mr. Robot,” “The Americans,” not to mention his praised portrayal of legendary NY Yankee Thurman Munson in “The Bronx is Burning.” On this episode he details his approach toward playing that beloved figure, and finding out that “almost the entire body of that character was an emotional word-gesture.” He talks about learning how much psychology is in people’s words, his process of having multiple “wants” for a character so he can easily adapt to what he’s given, he explains why it’s a disservice to write or act for the audience, why he doesn’t believe in monologues, how conducting interviews taught him how to listen and become a better actor, plus much more.

Bonnie Rose
Bonnie Rose started her professional career as a stand-in for Bette Midler on “First Wives Club.” Next up, the iconic and legendary film director Sidney Lumet hand picked her for the feature film “Night Falls On Manhattan,” playing a New York City cop opposite Andy Garcia, which led to many other Lumet projects over the next decade including a recurring role as a legal aid attorney on the TV legal drama “100 Centre St.” Bonnie’s massive credits in television and film include “Inside Llewyn Davis,” Marvel's “Jessica Jones,” “Mr. Robot,” “Blue Bloods,” “Broad City,” “The Sopranos,” and the trifecta of all “Law & Orders.” She recently won Best Actress at three different film festivals for her role in Finise Avery’s short film “Living with Grandma.” She also appears opposite Rose Byrne in Stephanie Laing’s feature film “Tow,” which just made its World Premiere at Tribeca Film Festival. On this episode, Rose talks about the child-like enthusiasm which fuels her work, what it means to “right-size yourself,” why having only one line is sometimes harder than having many lines, bravely (and hilariously) tackling nudity in her mid-fifties, the importance of always letting gratitude lead the way, and much more.
