It's the 98th episode of The 98%! And rules are being broken!! For the first time, The 98% is hosting someone from the other side...a 2 percenter!! Forget the usual format of interviewing familiar faces though, this is a relatable, validating discussion that might be exactly what you need in 98% life right now in the difficult landscape we find ourselves in. Many will remember today's guest Tony Gardner as the whacky and wonderful Brian from My Parents Are Aliens and despite going on to have a brilliant long standing career in the arts, Tony is a listener of The 98% and big supporter of what the platform is all about. So, after he tweeted about the podcast last year, Alexa and Katie could not pass up the oppurtunity to have him on (and rejoice in their millenial glee)! Tony shares his journey from medical school to stage and screen, his passion for the arts, his frustrations at difficulties actors face, and so much more!  .
