<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Roy Shuler Ad Yack Season 5 &lt;/strong&gt;Today on the podcast, I have the pleasure of speaking with SAG-AFTRA actor and all-around incredible human being, Mr. Roy Shuler. I first met Roy when he was cast in the play To Kill a Mockingbird at the PA Playhouse in Bethlehem. He played the pivotal role of Tom Robinson, a role he credits with helping him decide to leave the Lehigh Valley and return to his roots in New York City roots to pursue bigger acting opportunities. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This conversation is filled with life lessons that even the most jaded will find uplifting and encouraging. Roy and I spoke about his life philosophy and how he uses his faith, drive, and unwavering ability to see beyond the obstacles that he may encounter to live in harmony with the opportunities that come his way. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Roy and I also discuss the role he landed in a national spot produced for NIKE and the WNBA. Roy shared his experiences with the casting process and a behind-the-scenes peak while filming his role as 'Mr. Earl.' Roy will appear in the upcoming season of The Godfather of Harlem, which is entering its fourth season. Roy has had &lt;strong&gt;co-starring &lt;/strong&gt;roles on Law &amp;amp; Order: SVU, FBI: Most Wanted, background work on SNL, The show ‘Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens’ for Comedy Central, an episode of Murphy Brown with Candice Bergen, and dozens of local and regional ads. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Roy and I yak it up on a bunch of interesting topics, including a story he shared about an encounter with an overly aggressive beat cop back in NYC when he was 19. He shares how he used that memory to call upon to help him get into character when he performed as the wrongly accused Tom Robinson in To Kill a Mockingbird. I saw Roy perform in that play, and it left an indelible mark on me. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;When Roy’s not performing, he enjoys serving as an Elementary School Substitute Teacher, primary at schools in his native Harlem. George Eliot once said that, you're never too old to become who you might have been. Trust me, this episode deserves your time and attention because it's a perfect example of the interviews I like to participate in because Roy's story is worth celebrating.
