Episode 611 - DaJuan Johnson - State of the Industry: What Getting My Show Canceled Taught Me
I'm back. In this State of the Industry episode, I open up about the cancellation of Electric Bloom, what I learned from losing another series, and why nobody talks enough about what happens after the job ends. I get into why your community is your ceiling and why who you surround yourself with matter more than people think. I also talk about reimagining what it means to be an actor in 2026, why I've leaned into directing this past year, and why self-tapes and verticals are both worth your attention right now, whether you like it or not. If you're feeling stuck or unsure where you fit in this version of the industry, this one's for you. CONNECT WITH ME: Instagram: @thinkbiggercoaching WHO IS THIS GUY?

How to Create Verticals — Let's Talk!
Vertical dramas — those two-minute, phone-first shows on apps like Tubi, ReelShort, and MyDrama — are now an $8 billion business. SAG just launched a Verticals Agreement. Fox is producing hundreds. Disney's investing millions. In this episode, DaJuan breaks down how to do verticals — what they are, why they matter, and how actors can use this moment to stop waiting for permission and start creating in the new storytelling lane that's already here. Featuring a conversation with producer Guy Chachkes. CONNECT WITH ME: Instagram: @thinkbiggercoaching WHO IS THIS GUY? Check me out at: www.thinkbiggercoaching.com

Episode 608: Jon Snow - How Being a Reader Changed the Way I Audition
Before booking recurring roles on Criminal Minds and The Rookie, Jon Snow spent hours in the audition room as a reader for a casting director. In this episode, Jon shares what that experience taught him—why the actor who's most present often stands out, how over-rehearsing can kill a moment, and the small shifts that can make a performance land. He also pulls back the curtain on what casting is actually paying attention to, the choices that quietly take you out of the running, and how shifting his perspective changed everything about the way he auditions.
