S3:E10 - Actors Justin Phillips and Laura Cornachio

somindboggling journeys

Justin Phillips and Laura Cornachio are two comedic actors who I met on the set of a Nathan's Hot Dog Commercial. They're both working actors, and we decided to sit down and have a roundtable talk all about acting. We talk about what it was like to film the commercial together, how we learned Andy Cohen was the name attachment, how a bee almost derailed the shoot, and what has come of our big booking. We even get very real about what it's like to try to get footage, trying to overcome imposter syndrome, learning to speak up for yourself, and what we think is the best hot dog.
