  Kiami Davael: Matilda 03.09.2026 1t 4min

  We sit down with Kiami Davael, who a whole generation knows as Lavender, Matilda's loyal best friend in the 1996 classic. Kiami's "first call" story starts with a dream she'd had since age three, and a mom who told her that while there was only one Whitney Houston, she could be the best Kiami there ever was. Kiami takes us from a small town in Kentucky to Los Angeles, where an agent fought to get her in the room for a role that wasn't written for a girl who looked like her, until Mara Wilson'...

  Justin Cooper: Liar Liar 13.08.2026 1t 9min

  We sit down with Justin Cooper, the kid who played Max Reede, Jim Carrey's son in the 1997 blockbuster Liar Liar. Justin's "first call" story is a good one: he was standing in line at a Kinko's when his mom got word that Jim Carrey wanted to meet him first, just to make sure the two of them clicked before the cameras rolled. Justin was working before most kids can read, starting with a Domino's commercial at four and rolling into his own series The Boys Are Back, two years on General Hospital...

  Miko Hughes: Pet Sematary, Kindergarten Cop 23.07.2026 54min

  We sit down with Miko Hughes, who started working younger than anyone we've talked to yet, having been just over two years old when he played Gage Creed in the 1989 horror classic Pet Sematary. His story starts before he could even walk, when his mom heard him spell a word from his car seat and decided, on the spot, to take him to Hollywood. She spent nine months getting past the front desk of the biggest kids' agency in town, and once she did, Miko booked the first three things he ever went ...

  Natanya Ross: The Secret World of Alex Mack 02.07.2026 1t 14min

  We sit down with Natanya Ross, known to a generation as Robyn Russo, the dark, sharp, unforgettable heart of The Secret World of Alex Mack. Natanya's story starts earlier than almost anyone's, on stage as a baby and on Broadway before she ever set foot in Hollywood. We get into the call that changed her life & pulled her family west, the audition that was only supposed to last three episodes and turned into one of Nickelodeon's most beloved characters, and what it was like to grow up on c...

  Marty York: The Sandlot 11.06.2026 1t 29min

  We sit down with Marty York, known to a generation as Yeah-Yeah from the 1993 classic The Sandlot. Marty takes us back to how it all started, the audition that changed direction at the last minute, and what it was really like being part of a movie that became a phenomenon long after the cameras stopped rolling. We get into the highs, the harder chapters, the money, the reinvention, and the long road that led him back to telling his own story on his own terms. It's funny, it's honest, and it'...

  Blake McIver Ewing: The Little Rascals 14.05.2026 1t 27min

  We welcome our first guest and it's someone we go way back with. Blake McIver Ewing, known to most as Waldo from The Little Rascals, sits down with us to talk about a career that started before most kids learn to ride a bike. Blake's story begins with Star Search, where he talked his way onto the main stage at six years old and won. From there, it was Full House, The Little Rascals, a groundbreaking run in Ragtime, and a path through Hollywood that most people never hear the full version of. ...

  Jordan Warkol & Blake Collins: The Little Rascals 16.04.2026 1t 13min

  Before the guests start coming on, we figured the best place to begin… was with us. Jordan Warkol & Blake Collins sit down and chat with each other about a friendship that’s lasted more than 30 years—starting with the moment that changed everything: getting the call that led to The Little Rascals. We go back to what it was actually like being kids thrown into Hollywood—what we understood at the time, what we didn’t, and how different it all looks now with a few decades of perspective. Fro...

  Introducing The Not So Little Rascals 10.04.2026 1min

  You remember them from The Little Rascals…But what happened after the cameras stopped? Now, Jordan Warkol & Blake Collins are reconnecting with fellow child actors to talk about what growing up in Hollywood was really like, and what life looks like now. The Not So Little Rascals isn’t a “what went wrong?” podcast — no clickbait, no forced trauma. Just real conversations about identity, family, burnout, reinvention… and growing up a little too early.
