The Buzz - BuzzWorthy Radio

Fresh off his Lead Actor win, Scott Clifton returns to The Buzz – BuzzWorthy Radio for an extended conversation about his career, Liam Spencer, and the 40th anniversary of The Bold and the Beautiful. Scott and I revisit Liam's emotional storyline, including his scenes with Don Diamont, and discuss why the material was among his most rewarding work. He also shares why Liam's amnesia storyline with Rena Sofer remains one of his favorites and recalls the unforgettable experience of being slapped by Susan Flannery. We also look back at his years on General Hospital and One Life to Live, including the lessons he learned from Jane Elliott, Tony Geary, Maurice Benard, and Steve Burton. And because this is Scott, the conversation takes a few unexpected turns. From Halloween candy and turning 40 to collaboration, personal growth, and the art of interviewing, this is what happens when two longtime friends finally get to sit down for a proper conversation.

To celebrate the theatrical release of JIMMY on November 6, I'm bringing together four conversations on The Buzz – BuzzWorthy Radio exploring the life of legendary actor Jimmy Stewart and the making of the film. Christopher McDonald joins me to discuss portraying Lionel Barrymore, working alongside KJ Apa, and witnessing the emotional depth KJ brought to his performance. We also revisit Christopher's voice work as Jor-El in Superman: The Animated Series and his return as Shooter McGavin in Happy Gilmore 2. Jen Lilley discusses portraying Gloria Stewart, the revelations surrounding Jimmy's experiences during World War II, and how KJ captured Stewart's unmistakable voice and mannerisms. She also shares why she believes his performance deserves Academy Award recognition and discusses the return of her charitable initiative, Christmas Is Not Cancelled. PLUS: I'm revisiting my earlier conversations with director Aaron Burns and KJ Apa. Aaron explains why he wanted to tell this particular chapter of Stewart's life, the involvement of Stewart's daughter Kelly, and the incredible experience of being entrusted with Jimmy's actual Academy Award. KJ Apa, whom I spoke with at the Falling premiere in New York City, discusses the responsibility of portraying Jimmy Stewart and why having Stewart's daughter involved in the production was both reassuring and nerve-racking. Four conversations. One extraordinary story. JIMMY arrives in theaters November 6, 2026.
