Sterling K. Brown

About this episode

Sterling K. Brown (Paradise, The People v. O.J. Simpson, This Is Us) is an Emmy and Golden Globe Award-winning actor. Sterling joins the Armchair Expert to discuss learning from his father not to allow what he does for a living to dictate who he is, the benefits of having a good stubbornness, and how speaking in tongues as a child was good acting training. Sterling and Dax talk about meeting his wife as a student at Stanford, his lucky break as a reader for a Brecht play, and developing empathy for Chris Darden while playing him in The People v. O.J. Simpson. Sterling explains his mantra that you can’t be a fan and in the game at the same time, the fun of doing his second project with Dan Fogelman, and why he wouldn’t change anything that brought him to this point.
