Michael and Steve welcome Tim Daly (J.T.Dolan) to the Talking Sopranos podcast. Tim talks about his relationship with David Chase and how he ended up with the part of J.T. on the Sopranos. Was Tim’s character David’s way of poking fun at the TV industry? After all J.T. only had an Emmy not an Oscar. Tim shares lots of personal stories including how he climbed Mt Kilimanjaro with a broken toe…Incredible! Then Michael and Steve break down one of the most compelling episodes of the entire Sopranos series. This might be Michael’s favorite overall, and he shares how he got through the extremely emotional scenes. Steve also had a prominent role in this one and he talks about how he got himself jacked up for the big scene with Tony Sirico. Check out Talking Sopranos Ep #75 “The Ride” S6-Ep9.

No, I'm actually on Cape Cod at my accomplice's house.
