Mohr Stories CLASSIC #304: John C. McGinley

On this Mohr Stories Classic episode from 2015, Jay goes deep with actor John C. McGinley in a wide-ranging conversation that moves from Scrubs and Oliver Stone war stories (Platoon, Wall Street, Any Given Sunday) to Broadway pressure, acting discipline, and the art of saying the words exactly as written. McGinley also opens up about fatherhood, advocacy, and his work with the Global Down Syndrome Foundation, offering an emotional, honest, and thoughtful discussion about language, dignity, and standing up for people who can’t always stand up for themselves. Funny, intense, and deeply human—this is Mohr Stories at its best.This CLASSIC episode is free for all our subscribers, but make sure to upgrade to paid so that you get all our Substack exclusives including ad-free episodes of the regular podcast a day early, the Sunday mini episodes with Joe Praino, and all of these classic eps.
