2 years ago

This week we are joined by friend of the show R.W. Martin! Not only is R.W. a great guy he's also a very talented actor, writer, director, and now podcaster. Check out his new show All Our Yesterdays on Facebook and YouTube. Randy William Martin is an award-winning actor who was born on November 15, 1965, in Montpelier, Vermont, to William Frederick Martin and Mary Elizabeth (Blanchard) Martin. From an early age, it was apparent that he had a flair for comedy. While in grade school he was known to visit the principal daily due to his unique antics, this could also be because he has suffered from ADHD his whole life, a disability he has used to his advantage in his creativeness, in acting, and writing. On June 26th1987, while still living in his hometown of Waterbury, Vermont he entered a local variety show, impersonating 'Weird Al' Yankovic, this was his first time performing in front of a crowd. That performance made him realize that making people laugh and cheer was what he wanted to do for the rest of his life. This also marked the first time he went by the name "R.W." Martin. In 1982 while waiting in the bus line R.W. was bullied so badly that he dropped out of school that day, and never went back, he went on to get a GED with above-average scores. He has written a book available on Amazon called Life Inside My Head A Scattered Tale Living With ADHD Ramblin's that talks about the struggles he has faced in life. In the mid-80s and early '90s R.W. took advantage of the few opportunities where Hollywood filmed a movie or television series in Vermont. The Spitfire Grill, The Wizard of Loneliness, Ethan Frome, and "Rescue 911" are a few of the projects he has worked on as an uncredited actor. R.W. made a trip to Hollywood in 1994 on a greyhound bus to try to find an agent, to no avail. He is still trying to find an agent, hoping to break into the mainstream business. In the meantime, R.W. continues to contribute humorous videos to YouTube and works on local Vermont commercials and independent films, still trying to catch that break. If given the chance, R.W. Martin could be bigger than one of his idols, Jim Carrey. www.officialrwmartin.com This episode is sponsored by Deadly Grounds Coffee, head over to https://deadlygroundscoffee.com/ and grab a bag if you want to support the show head over to http://tee.pub/lic/xagxfUg22qI and grab a shirt!
