Description

In “Kahnversations,” our own Ryan Bailey interviews some of Lesly Kahn & Company’s working actors, directors, and writers in order to learn how they got started in Hollywood, the challenges and hurdles they faced, and how they overcame the odds. (They also dish out some crazy stories!) Listen in and enjoy as these entertainers speak candidly about their paths, processes, and experiences. You might even hear a bit about how Lesly and the Kahnstitute have influenced and shaped their careers. 
In this installation of "Kahnversations," Ryan interviews Alison Haislip, who will appear in the season premiere of NCIS. While Alison is most well known from her past duties on G4’s ATTACK OF THE SHOW and AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR, she garnered a lot of attention when she took upon the innovative role of the first ever on-air Social Media Correspondent on NBC’s hit show THE VOICE during its first season. Alison can also be seen as a series lead in Hulu’s first original series, BATTLEGROUND, produced by Marc Webb, and she recently starred in the heartfelt indie film, SATURN RETURNS. She also hosted what was dubbed as the “Chelsea Lately” for nerds: FOUR POINTS, with Alex Albrecht on Chris Hardwick’s Nerdist Channel, and was Hardwick’s correspondent for his show THE NERDIST on BBCA. She is also the correspondent for Zac Levi’s innovative company, The Nerd Machine, who has partnered with Spike to cover all things geek, and co-hosted Hulu’s daily show, THE MORNING AFTER. Alison's other television credits include Showtime’s SHAMELESS, TNT’s FRANKLIN & BASH, MTV’s ZACH STONE IS GONNA BE FAMOUS, VH1's I HATE MY 30'S and Comedy Central's RENO 911!. Her film credits include FRESHWATER, DIVISION III: FOOTBALL'S FINEST, THE DONNER PARTY, WASTED, and THE INDIAN. And soon to be seen on the fall premiere of NCIS!

We've all heard the stories from block buster actors. In Kahnversations, you’ll hear interviews with some of Lesly Kahn & Company’s working actors, directors, and writers. Folks who have just broken through, not yet to wild star status, but they aren't bartending either (probably). The goal: de-mystifying career trajectories and talking through those moments where everything shifted. We’ll learn how they got their start in Hollywood, the challenges and hurdles they faced, and how they overcame the odds, not to mention dish some juicy stories! Listen in and enjoy as these entertainers speak candidly about their path, process, and experiences, and about how Lesly and the Kahnstitute have influenced and shaped their careers. Also, did we mention Lesly impersonations…? Our new hosts (also LK&Co actors!) have a cool, free-flowing vibe that we know you will enjoy. George Twopointoh, producer of the podcast (IG @twopointoh and georgetwopointoh.com) and Patrice Covington, Emmy award winning actress-singer-speaker, and writer and performer of our theme song (@patricecovington on social media) joyfully guide the Kahnversation.
