In Part 2 of my conversation with John Shea, we talk about unforgettable moments from Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman — including facing a cobra as Lex Luthor, working with Teri Hatcher during a memorable rat-filled scene, and returning to the show with a very different look. Plus, John reflects on his time in the Marvel series Mutant X.

Ernie Hudson — From Ghostbusters to Boston Blue.
He ain’t afraid of no ghosts.
This episode features a candid, wide-ranging conversation with the legendary Ernie Hudson — an actor whose career spans decades, genres, and some of the most beloved franchises in pop culture history.
We talk about his powerful new role on CBS’s Boston Blue, but that’s just the beginning.
Ernie reflects on:
- His unforgettable turn as Winston Zeddemore in Ghostbusters — from the original films to the emotional reunions decades later
- Entering the world of Quantum Leap and the legacy of genre storytelling on television
- Why he considers acting his “calling and ministry”
From bustin’ ghosts, to bending time, to commanding the screen in primetime drama, Ernie shares thoughtful insights, behind-the-scenes stories, and the perspective that only a true industry veteran can offer.
It’s heartfelt. It’s nostalgic. It’s inspiring. And yes — we cover it all…including throwing down with the Incredible Hulk.
Hit play and spend some time with a legend.
