Thanks for keeping me company and entertained while I work as usual Chris 🖤
Just incredible how acting careers start. I'm a golfer and I had to chuckle about the caddy strike. His memory is incredible and such a spiritual person. Good job Chris and a big thumbs up.
Chris - so impressed you got Joe Estevez on the show - he is a legend! Love the interviews which are great listening! Have a happy weekend! Mary
Strong interview Chris !!!!, Big enjoy my friend... thanks...jeff
You just did a great interviewing Chris! I enjoyed listening to this a lot...getting to know the stories..keep doing this Chris! It's your talent! 😍👍
Emilio Estevez is in one of my fave films of all time, The Breakfast Club. So many great actors in this family! I loved listening to this interview, Chris. Really enjoy your conversations. Big like!
Great interview Chris! Great to hear from a great Actor! Thank you Chris for sharing this wonderful interview!😊
What a guy, he's had an amazing journey and done so much. I've seen a fair few of his movies and am also a fan of his nephews Charlie and Emilio. Emilio certainly looks a lot like his uncle. Great interview Chris 💛
Lots to think about here. Wonderful of Joe to share his life with us and great interview, Chris!
Wonderful show, I enjoy his movies he is a great character. Thanks for that interview
Hey Chris . This may have been my favorite interview you've done so far . The California Kid really brought me back to better times . Joe was so just so honest and humble about his career decisions and I loved hearing his stories . I could feel his pain talking about Dana Plato and so many others that rose to fame too quickly and lost their lives , so sad . Just such an interesting interview Chris , loved it ! Once again , thank you for all your hard work and sharing . Stay safe and well brother ! 👍👍
Oh wow! He's one of the best actor I admires Chris, thank you for another amazing contact/interview to Joe...I've seen the movie Apocalypse Now, I still have my DVD and that's one of the best movie ever :) Thank you again dear for coming over :)Full view from me :))
The moment I read Estevez...I thought maybe he's one of them. And yes, looks and even sounds like his brother. I only knew and watched Martin Sheen, Charlie and Emilio movies. Great to know there's another one. Good interview! 💛
Seriously Chris, you get some really awesome people my friend. LIKE #44. 👍👍👍👍👍
This is a great interview Chris! The comment Joe makes about Dana Plato is so sensitive and kind! These are the kinds of moments that make your interviews so valuable! We all learn something new about the actors we love! Like#65 👍
that was amazing, he sounds so genuine, he is so right saying think with your own mind it is such a beautiful thing to waste, don't rely on others to tell you what to think, you do see that so much today! Excellent interview
Another wonderful interview Chris! I always learn so much about the industry and so happy to hear how he has aligned his roles to his faith. A solid guy:)
It’s always awesome to see who you will find. This guest was very fascinating.
Crazy that he has 300+ movie credits- especially having a stage career too! Funny to hear him talk about being a caddy and striking. Found that funny. Also I think it was good that his family was a working family- kids learn a lot like that. It was also good to hear him talk about his battle with alcohol and his ability to stay sober for so long. I agreed with both of your takes that we need to be better at deciding for ourselves what we like- think for ourselves. Sounds like the Hollywood lifestyle can be so hard. It was good to see how he has kept his faith and working to help others. Another marvelous interview- listing while I am working on my cars.
He and his family have had such a huge influence on Hollywood. It is really cool to hear about his experiences, especially when he was younger and all he went through before he became a star. I have huge respect for actors who have worked hard in both on-stage and off-stage productions. It's really sad to hear about the problems he had with that Vietnamese word. Speaking another language correctly is just so hard sometimes. Korean doesn't have an "L" or "R" but it does have an "L/R" that is a mix of the two but can also sound like a Spanish "R" depending on placement. That really sucks, but I'm happy he's led a great life since then! You do such a great job at asking engaging questions that add true value to the interview. Asking great questions is a great skill to have, and I think it's often overlooked by many. Thank you for making this a fun listen, Chris!!
Wow he sounds like his brother. I didn't know there was a Joe! Hey Chris, I started my own podcast. It is called The Strange by Colorado Martini. You inspired me.
This is such an honest interview and your interviewer skill is commendable, you keep the interview flowing at a good interesting pace. Thanks for sharing :-)
Hey buddy! This was a great interview! Hope you’re having a great week! 🐼🐾👍
Another excellent interview Chris. Joe Estevez is as humble as he is talented. So many amazing stories. Great movies to talk about! Left you a like my friend
What a great interview. Loved listening and learning about Joe. How do you get such great people to interview? Loved learning how vested he is to his religion and how his religion he carries with him into everything he does.
Great interview Chris! You are so good at this! Super interesting! I'm totally taking notes for next time, LOL! Have a great one my friend!!
Chris you get the interviews I really want to hear!!!
Great job Chris, this is a fantastic interview! He had a great stories and journey! Keep it up! :)
Your interviews are always so relaxing and interesting. I've actually never heard of Joe Estevez, he just looks so much like the rest of the family. Nice job, he seems very candid and honest in this interview. Have a great day 👍LIKE #51
Fantastic job, Chris! He has some great stories of his journey.
Thanks for the interview, my friend. ^_^
great interview Chris! cool to learn more about The California Kid !
Another great interview here Chris. I didn't know he was Martin Sheen's brother. Love your video.
Chris, Bro great interview man I wasn't sure I remembered him but when I heard your interview it came back. What a story thank you for sharing with us big like 57 here hope you have a Wonderful Weekend Chris. 👍😎
That was great! Getting to hear the stories! Very interesting!😊🔥
Chris, I would love someone to interview you - How do you get so many amazing people on your show? You really have a way of bringing out the best in the people you interview as well! Joe touched on so many different topics! I remember watching Apocalypse Now in high school when we were studying the Vietnam War - such a great movie! I also didn't know that Joe did a lot of voice acting for his brother - I think Tom Hank's brother does that too...seems like a pretty cool gig and a nice break from the limelight!

@Toni Clair- that is a great idea!
Excellent and deep interview Chris! Loved to hear about how we went about wiping of the Sheen name - sometimes having a famous family name can be a hindrance, and props to Joe for wanting to known by his own name.
That was a great interview. You are an excellent interviewer.
I like when I can learn a lot that I didn't know, this interview really was good to find out all the stories he had to say. thanks man
Awesome interview ... he sounds like a really chill and nice guy
This is a great interview! Always learning more from ur podcast ! ☺️❤️
Wow, great interview Chris. Big time guest. Damn, didn’t know he gave CA Kid to his brother...oh man! Very cool discussion on Apocalypse Now and also the Vic Marrow story. I didn’t know he did most of the voice overs for Martin’s narrative! Fantastic interview!
What a great interview and you really do get some amazing stars on here.
Great interview! Lots of great insight! I'm ashamed that I didn't even know that Martin Sheen had a brother! Now I know! Great job!
Hey Chris!! So cool to hear this interview with Joe Estevez! He seems like he has a great work ethic, and really enjoys acting. He has a huge IMDB resume and is doing a lot of current work by the looks of it!! Fully played this and great interview! Lots of love to you and stay safe! :)
This was so interesting to listen to!!
That’s amazing that he suggested his brother for California Kid! Great stories. Wonderful interview. I didn’t know he did voiceover for Apocalypse. I’m going to look into his work more. Great interview!! I’m going to listen to more later. Cheers 👍☕️☕️🎞🎥📽

wow super amazing interview with Joe, great share and be safe there
Great interview as always Chris! 😊 Very professional.
Nice interview, Chris! Thanks for sharing!
I never gave too much thought about the difference between stage and film acting. I can totally get why he would think stage acting would be more enjoyable. I remember "The California Kid" from way back, and Apocalypse Now is one of the classics. He did so many movies, A great actor. Awesome interview Mr. Contra !!

Nice upload 👍
Pretty awesome interview bro 🍻
That's interesting how he did his brother's voice because they, "Couldn't afford him." Chris, do you think substance is prominent in the acting and music world? It seems as though many of the people you have interviewed on your show had struggled with it. I totally remember that incident with Nancy Kerrigan. That was back in the 90's when I used to figure skate myself and we were both from Minnesota! I liked Estevez's discussion about vulnerability in people when they lose people in their lives who gave them direction.

Yeah, that was one of the biggest scandals in figure skating history, and you being a part of the figure skating world at that time, it must've been especially shocking. To answer your question, I think if there is a lack of structure in a persons life, substance abuse issues have a much better chance to creep in. Often times, entertainers are lacking structure, because work is kind of sporadic and they certainly have the means to feed some dangerous habits. Ultimately, it can happen to anybody leading that kind of lifestyle. Anyway, that's kind of my feelings on it. Thanks for listening and bringing a great discussion to the comments, Red!
