Man what a great Podcast…This Guy gets it so much, I almost hope no one else hears him because once they hear him and apply his seminar to their career, they are going to take off. I have heard of this guy from many many people and know that they all love what he has to say and what he does. This guy is a class act because he is not in it for himself, but for the actor. SO few people in this business are like that. Thank you to EA for bringing this guy in and FINALLY getting the truth about what the heck this business is all about. I will be at the next seminar. Thanks

Yeah, I totally agree. I listened to the whole interview, and the guy is GREAT! He really knows what he’s talking about. I checked out his website, and the whole concept looks amazing. Something to think about. I will definitely check out his next seminar.

This really was a great interview. Everything John said made so much sense it’s unbelievable no one has ever articulated this concept before. It’s obvious that every actor should have this knowledge of himself right out of the gates. I was certainly informed and inspired by this podcast and look forward to the day when I can thank John in my acceptance speech!

Hi my name is Ayman Alagouza, I’m 26 years old and I come from Cairo Egypt
i graduated vancouver film school last year…first of all i wanna say
u guys have a big fan in egyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyypppttt!!!!!! WAY TO GO girls!! U absolutely ROCK:D
Ive been listening to ur podcast for 2 weeks now and i have a LOT to catch up on:)
the effort ur making is amazing and i cant thank u enough for the inspiration and
‘demystifying’ of the industry although the industry here in Egypt is a bit different
i’ll tell u about it if u guys have the time:)
I wanna tell u that the interview with Mr. Dapolito as mystical as it might have sounded to some of us
it was quite the eye-opener to me…i cant describe how shocked and thrilled i was when i applied his ‘theory’
to myself and i began to notice the thread that links all my successful art work even as a digital painter
its almost scary ya know but know that i acknowledge it i think i’ll have an easier time making creative decisions.
I wish I could attend his seminars but its like half way around the globe for me:)
so thank u soooooooooooo much and keep up the wonderful work
peace out new yoooork!
ps. plz wish me luck for my ‘theatrical’ audition next week, its for Michael Frayn’s play “Noises Off”..im a bit worried about auditioning on stage:)
