Ep. 61: Ash Avildsen & Victor Boyce (The Cameron Boyce Foundation)

Alex and Shane talk about Joe Biden tax plan memes hitting home, proper use of new slang terms, pillows, how their new date night plans are working, and QAnon conspiracies.

Director and CEO of Sumerian Records Ash Avildsen discusses his upbringing as the son of an Oscar-winning director whom he had no relationship with. Ash details his unique family dynamic, how it impacted his own success, navigating life with an estranged father, and reconciliation.

 

 

Victor Boyce, father of late actor Cameron Boyce, discusses the impact of tragically losing a child, Cameron’s career, spending time on set, and establishing a legacy project in honour of Cameron (The Cameron Boyce Foundation).

 

 

A mailbag of listener questions are answered, hitting topics like “me time,” making time to exercise when you have kids, and what to do for a “date night” during covid.
