Bryan Cranston | Really? no, Really?

Listen to the Show on all Podcast Apps "Really? no, Really?" www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-r...
When Jason and Peter read that actor, producer, director, author, philanthropist, and entrepreneur Bryan Cranston was retiring to spend more time with his family, in France, or something like that…they had to find out if it was true. Why would an actor in his prime retire now? The actual answer may surprise you. Really, no Really!
He has two Tony Awards, a Golden Globe, and an Academy Award nomination - and you probably know him best as Walter White from the series Breaking Bad which won him 6 Primetime Emmys.
In this in-studio sit-down, Bryan addresses his curtain call, takes a deep dive into his creative process, and reveals some quite novel and shocking life experiences…like being wanted for murder!

Aint no way I’ve discovered a Jason Alexander podcast before it’s blown up! Let’s go love this man!

[@complexend4133]

im 3 weeks late and saying same!

[@dreadlocklife3418]

I can't believe it here we go summer of george

[@fairpaintv593]

You know who could really have a great podcast? That Lloyd Braun

[@variousartists7060]

Why can't this podcast be more like Lloyd Braun's??

[@skateurself]

@@variousartists7060 Isn't he in the nut house!?

[@JackdSpongeebob]

I am literally in awe that George Costanza has a podcast, this will be huge a year from now

[@TheEbo34]

I just found out about this a few hour hours ago and now i'm here. This is breaking my brain

[@henrybinder4754]

It’s been around almost a year now though…

[@subMJM]

@@henrybinder4754 It is kinda crazy how a video with these names only has 5k views after two weeks.

[@salagaawakening7087]

Can't stand ya

[@RookWorx]

In aww?

[@JC_wonderland]

I’m just discovering he has a podcast…and the first thing I thought was “I didn’t know he had a podcast with Pacino

[@RookWorx]

😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Largentina.]

So glad I'm not alone lol

[@Scarhandz]

Bro. Haha. I just commented the same then did a quick scroll. Ha. I am not alone, we are Legion. 😆

[@sheppygawdog1954]

Its the real Guy Pacino Played in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

[@TheMastermind729]

Wait… that’s not al Pacino???

[@michaelh5720]

Jason Alexander is absolutely brilliant. Very pleased to have found his channel here 👍🏻👍🏻

[@mattdclarkson]

Glad to see Tim Whatley doing well

[@recklesstoboggan]

Holy hell! Jason Alexander has a podcast with 1990's Al Pacino! I always knew Jason was a heck of a producer; but I mean the logistics alone must be nearly impossible! ... Impossible Jason!! Subscribed.

[@lancegoodthrust546]

Very happy that Jason Alexander and Al Pacino have their own podcast now.

[@mindoria2137]

"I’d rather have experiences than things" Lovely man. ❤

[@TheGeoffbonn]

To be fair, when he didn’t have things, he probably felt differently

[@4747da]

It's always people who can afford things, and have things that say that.

[@mindoria2137]

@@4747da Absolutely true but there’s many people who’s got more than enough who’s still chasing that ego trip forever.

[@edwardlara4936]

Good to have Bryan Cranston on your show!

[@elbob17]

Jason Alexander and Bryan Cranston...two actors everyone loves but you know if you met them in real life, you'd be disappointed.

[@jshaers96]

Maybe, but Cranston seems like the sort of guy you'd get along with as long as you're polite.l and don't bother him. Of course he's a great actor so maybe he's been pretending the whole time and is really a flaming asshole. I don't really know about It Jason. He seems pretty self-contained and not all that approachable.

[@jazzjokesjalopies]

His acting in “Your Honor” was masterful.

[@MsLilyPickles]

Came here from Howie Mandel Does Stuff. Great podcast, love Jason, can’t wait to binge what I haven’t seen and be here for whatever comes next.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

Yeah me too. Great to know this podcast exists!

[@shirleyrhodes3741]

Me too!

[@NoxiousLynx]

[@caniican]

..you are killing it... independent George 😂❤🎉

[@Gay_Charlie]

A very underrated podcast.

[@NickTaylorRickPowers]

Not underated Unknown I just came across this now through my feed The algorithm is learning

[@Gay_Charlie]

@@NickTaylorRickPowers Which technically meant underrated lol.

[@shirleyrhodes3741]

Bryan Cranston will always be the MAN to me!! What an amazing actor he is!!

[@clifforddean232]

Jason Alexander playing George was the same as Steve Carrel playing Michael from the office, sadly he never capitalized on it and went out of his way to cover it up. I'm overly thrilled to see him doing a podcast.

[@juanacosta4328]

[@markwegner6821]

Brian is a perfect example of people just wanting to see him, to see the person. Like a friend. Entertainment assumes an act, a role, a part, but with Jason and Brian, we just like to see them, being genuine and entertaining is their shtick.

[@craigroaring]

Jason Alexander and Brian Cranston, god tier actors.

[@joestocking]

Serenity now!!

[@jessehaskell1397]

I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation

[@skateurself]

Omg George talking to Walter White was the funniest thing Ive ever seen. Thank u guys for this.. and now I am subbed.

[@hawsrulebegin7768]

Can’t believe I hadn’t known about this podcast. Now I’m a happy ol man.

[@borisgrishenk0]

The "If Jesse Pinkman had been George Costanza" toward the end was wonderful!

[@LargeGrizzlyBear]

It’s nice to see where their conversation leads because although they are elite level actors and celebrities they really are just talking life like anybody would with old friends.

[@angelmanza7055]

Love this! I’m going to watch every single episode 😊

[@astonmikedelgado]

Awesome show, wish I knew about this sooner

[@thomasabebe123]

Life just got so much more exciting because of this show! Thanks a trillion!

Fantastic Episode. It feels so great to hear another Costanza line

[@sgdbach9277]

Good to see you again Jason 😊

[@TheAprone]

This was a great interview.

[@gustavofring-thechickenman]

What an amazing discussion 🙏🏽

[@gottagolduck]

I'd totally love a book from Jason, but I respect the want of privacy, too. I'd support him either way. Love the new changes to the pod, fellas. Keep at it! 😄🩷

[@gonepostalny]

It would probably be more like a pamphlet.

[@AaronBowley]

loved jason on howies show, looking forward to this

[@patdecorvo]

A George freak-out in the beginning, in his shirt and Whatley too!!- i love this episode of RNR👍

[@skateurself]

[@Martin0]

This is fascinating!! News to me!

[@jay7033]

Amazing!!

[@luizalexandre2204]

This is awesome ❤

[@UncleBernhard]

When Jason talked about his writings, Bryan should have said: And you wrote Acting Without Acting! That was a great book! Congrats! Tell us about that book!

[@beemarley816]

New here & it’s live 🎉

[@mizukarate]

Jason Alexander should write a book as if he was George Costanza. It should be autobiographical. 📚📕📓

[@nancilane5069]

I hope Bryan doesn't retire until he wins an Oscar and an Emmy. He deserves to be an EGOT!

[@fredererpower]

He’s got 6 Emmys already but I agree he deserves an Oscar

[@TheAprone]

The camera cut out at 36 second in... I couldn't see Jason anymore. Just wanted to let you guys know so the issue can be corrected in the future.

[@helixmoss9957]

haha Jason switched on the george improv straight away, amazing

[@nelq415]

Just discovered this podcast! Love ya Costanza! Lol

[@reallynoreallypodcast]

Yay! Thank you!

[@krisg3984]

Found this from Mike Rowes interview with Tiden . His backstory and present story is pretty interesting ! A good one !! I think. I’ll like this - I need to laugh more. Wit and humor

[@RobertDarcy]

Bring it Jason! Brian Cranston is NOT Retiring! He loves the game- and he's so good at it!

[@SLiMCHiCKeN5150]

Stop calling the man Costanza. R E S P E C T

[@thesequelvintage]

George has gone full camo with that shirt against that wall

[@oblivion4508]

That is awesome

[@machiel5888]

any questions about Asteroid City? I love that film, and Bryan really seems to understand the layers and how they fit together.

[@ReignitedAuto]

So you were the one who liked that movie? 😂 We all have different taste, and I'm sure the primary reason I really hated that movie was because of my lack of taste. But my God that was epically bad lol.

[@TonyslicesFanPage]

23 seconds in I was like “ why is al Pacino on a podcast “

[@badad0166]

14:42 Earl Pomerantz had a two hander comedy show on CBC Television with Lorne Michaels before Lorne went to New York.

[@RenataKleinRK]

Sounds like Bryan’s wife didn’t “fall out of love with acting” as much as Hollywood broke her heart. I’m sure she still loves the craft, just not the business.

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

Can't retire until y'all finish the Malcolm in the middle reboot 😅 the Creator of breaking bad and Malcolm in the Middle are geniuses both shows you can watch a decade after and they would still be relevant and they're the perfect setup for so many jokes and conspiracies between Hal and Walter White 😅

[@SLiMCHiCKeN5150]

Run Jason, Run! 😂

[@NOxSPLOOSHxPLANE]

You need to get Ed begley on here that man is very interesting he is the real life Dos Equis guy lol like one of the most interesting human beings in Hollywood

[@castle4640]

Can't believe Bryan is 70, he looks 20 years younger. Wow

[@12345682900]

@ 47:07 Jason states that, as George, he has no memory of stealing a clock. I would've bet otherwise. That episode was a true standout (of course many were!) whereas George states, with regard to women, he "grows on them." His date eventually concedes as she sings her little jingle, "Co...Stanza!" Funny stuff!

[@carriebizz]

I could watch them talk all day!!! 😂 and I'd watch a Seinfeld breaking bad show lol

[@amilombanugo8321]

Costanza!!!! My man 😂😂😂

“I want a quieter journey.” - he says from his show on the biggest video platform that’s ever existed

[@CursedCamel]

Holy mother of god

[@jswets5007]

I have huge respect for people like Jason Alexander who choose to honestly bare their horseshoe, instead of getting hairpiece on their head. Yes they have hairpiece on their head. Where else would they have hairpiece, on their balls?

Constanza!
