We try to feature as many local people as possible on Phoenix FM although sometimes we can’t resist looking further afield when some really interesting characters cross our paths.
Nick Field – who has been presenting his Wednesday evening show Curveballs since, it seems, the dawn of time – met up with American actor Artie O’Daly who was visiting London.
Artie may not be a familiar name to you, but some of the shows in which he’s appeared will, including The Big Bang Theory, Grey’s Anatomy, Modern Family and Scandal.
Since 2018 he’s also been producing his own comedy web series, Bad Boy, about a struggling screenwriter and his strange housemates, which recently reached its 30th episode – no mean feat for an independent series.
Nick and Artie chatted about life in Hollywood, the trials and tribulations of creating your own series, Artie’s fondness for all things ABBA and more.
You can hear the interview again at www.phoenixfm.com, and find out more about Artie – and watch Bad Boy – at www.artieodaly.com.
