About this episode
Joe Manganiello (True Blood, Deal or No Deal Island) is a renowned heartthrob— but did you know he’s also a certified, almost-skipped-two-grades, dungeons&dragons master, nerd? Joe regales us with stories of his almost unbelievable tween years juggling his academic gifts with his athletic prowess and a burgeoning passion for the arts. He opens up about why honoring a family legacy of survival is so important to him, and why becoming a dad could be his most exciting role yet.
