He believes he is not Hollywood and that his career involves struggling and waiting for work rather than constant professional success.

“I'm staying in LA begging for work please please no no you're bro please currently on a show as a regular a show it's over but are you not a regular on a show yeah but who knows if it ever comes on a regular on no show dog who knows if it ever comes back”

Actors should avoid doing excessive press because revealing too much of their real personality makes it difficult for audiences to lose themselves in their performances.

He thinks that the producer George tries to manufacture recognition by lingering in public spaces to be seen by fans.

“It's worse what he goes and hangs out in the lobby to fish for recognition George that's yucky literally I'm not kidding you I've seen it dude George you wait in the hallway to try to see if fans are going to recognize you and they do right and then he that feeling that feeds his ego”

He believes that the entertainment industry currently lacks the ability to create iconic stars compared to previous generations.

“But it's interesting now because the category of acting has changed. You know what I mean? Like Hollywood don't make stars anymore.”

He asserts that studio executives intentionally present contracts during auditions as a power move to force performers to commit to terms before they have any leverage.
