Tom Hanks, Part II

from Hey, an Actor!

As The Year of Redux begins to wind down, The Brothers Wilson revisit America's favorite actor: Tom Hanks. Since his last Hey, an Actor! appearance, he's been acting more, producing more, and become one of the earliest celebrities to contract COVID ahead of the pandemic. Rather than dwell, this episode focuses upon his sophomore Oscar win as the titular Forrest Gump, portraying the famous man in The Da Vinci Code, and embodying Mr. Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. Along the way, Ian offers up a treat for fans of niche British comedy from the mid 90s, Pandy reminisces about educational toys, and the acceptability of the name Gavin is contemplated. Also brace yourself for feedback both foul and fair, a Junior Wilson once again making a cameo appearance, and a major announcement of a new tentacle of HAA audio goodness!
