Actor, writer, comedian Maz Siam joins the podcast this week. Maz is an inspiration to anyone who’s ever thought it was “too late” to pursue a passion. With already over ninety credits to his name and counting, at fifty years old, Maz took his skillset as a successful salesman, paired it with his passion for creativity and has become a successful dramatic and comedic actor.  Besides acting, Maz, Mark and Lowell get into topics including overcoming anger issues, parenting styles, sobriety, and how accepting others for who they are can make for better living.

Maz has been on a wide range of TV shows from “Hawaii Five-0” to “American Horror Story” to “The New Girl” and “The Affair.” Find out more about Maz on his website and by following him on Twitter:
