Chris Cafero makes his triumphant return to talk with Gianmarco, Russell, and special guest Douglas Goodhart about the terrible interactive off-off-broadway theater experience that brought them together, our worst acting gigs, working with Vinny Guadagnino from Jersey Shore, which of us has the worst mirror face, and whether or not we need to change the auditioning process. Douglas also shares the first This Has Gotta Stop to involve a PowerPoint presentation. You can watch full video of this episode HERE!
