David Krumholtz (Oppenheimer, Numbers) joins us this week to candidly share his experience overcoming thyroid cancer, the difficulties surrounding this disease while working in Hollywood, and how it was preceded by a nine month panic attack. Later, David talks about the validation he received from Christopher Nolan after landing a prominent role in Oppenheimer, his humbling first day on set, and a crazy story of how auditioning for this part evidently led to him becoming sober. We also talk The Santa Clause, pivoting on Numbers, and a horror story of a honeymoon.

Met Robin Williams while working in a comic book shop. He wanted to open an anime artbook and I told him I need to ask the front counter. He threw his arm around me and said "then lets go ask!". I asked my co-worker and her only response was "Dude...that's Robin Williams, he can open whatever he wants." and Robin proceeded to shake me a bit and say "LAY OFF THE GUY HE'S JUST DOING HIS JOB!". This was a year before he passed. Wonderful experience.

I met Jack Black in the Starbucks across from my apartment here in Atlanta. He was so friendly and happy to chat, and the minute I mentioned that I followed his KZfaq channel, he didn't want to talk about anything else BUT video games. After that, he asked me to recommend him games to play, and before he left with his coffee, we took a photo together. Dude was an absolute delight.

I was at LAX waiting to pick up a friend once when Kiefer Sutherland walked into the terminal. He saw that I recognized him but I didn't want to bother him so i just smiled, pointed at him, and nodded my head to acknowledge him. To my surprise, he came over and shook my hand and talked to me for like 10 minutes before going to his gate. By far the best encounter I've had with a celebrity

I met Kiefer and got a photo with him a few years back. He was in the corner of a local dive bar in my town, and was probably a little drunk, so I’m not sure how much that had to do with his kindness… but he was super nice. He saw me hovering around the 3-4 people he was talking to and acknowledged me, invited me into the circle basically as he finished his story. Then when he was done I told him I didn’t want to bother him but just wanted to say I was a fan of his work, and he left the group he was talking to and spoke to me solo for like 5mins. He asked me what my favorite film of his was and seemed genuinely interested haha. We spoke about Stand By Me and Dark City (he told me those were his two most personal / meaningful films he had done) and then he took a photo with me and my then girlfriend. I let him go after that and we hung out around the bar drinking and an hour or so later as he was escorted out a back entrance by his security, as he walked past me he literally stopped, reached out his hand to shake mine and said “it was a genuine pleasure,” then left the bar out the back. It was crazy. I think he’s probably so used to people only recognizing him as Jack Bauer that a younger guy geeking out about Dark City stood out to him, but who knows. Either way he was really cool towards me. Oh and I also offered to buy him a shot and he almost said yes but then told me they had a tab open already and he didn’t want me to spend my money. Class act haha. He was in town with his country band and they had played a show earlier that night.

I was working film security overnight in Toronto as a shy teenager. Standing around in a vest by a barrier in cold and wet. John Ritter went walking by and noticed me on his way in, stopped and chatted. 30 min later he came out and brought me a chair and an umbrella. An hour later came out and brought me a hot chocolate and a sandwich and was telling me and a cute girl I was working with hilarious jokes and stories and started asking us both all about ourselves and started talking us both up to one another and suggested we should go on a date since we were both single and nice kids. I never would have asked, but she said told John she’d say yes if I asked so I did. We went out a few times and had fun, but it didn’t really go anywhere, but what an amazing story it would have made if we ended up together! RIP John!

I met Eddie Van Halen back in the early 90s. He was fueling up his Lambo at the gas pump across from me. I immediately recognized him (he still had long hair), and was wearing sunglasses looking like the ultimate Rock Star. I completely froze and he waved at me, I waved back. He then hangs up his gas pump and waves me over. I cannot believe it and he waves me over again, so I walk over to him, shaking I extend my hand and he grabs my hand and pulls.me toward him like if he knew me LOL!!! He then says ... "You look like you like to rock, want some guitar picks?" I said "YES SIR. I SURE DO!", and he reaches into his tote bag and HANDS ME 3 BLACK AND GOLD VAN HALEN GUITAR PICKS. !!! I still have them. All 3 are black with VH Logo in Gold with Eddie's Signature and the letters f.u.c.k inside of his signature. On the back side, it has F.U.C.K stamped on it in capital lettets. It was their "For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge" Tour. He spoke with me for a while and almost lit up a cigarette right next to the gas pump and caught himself and said "Oops, oh shit, bad idea next to all these gas fumes." We laughed. He asked where I was from and he said he was going home to get ready to go Golfing. I will never forget that day. It broke my heart when he passed away. Such a nice and humble person and so down to earth. Rest in Peace Rock Star Eddie Van Halen.👑

I was in a backroom taking a break and eating while watching a Game show on a TV when he came walking in asking if it was OK to take a breather. Dude was super chill, like I was talking to one of my uncles. he asked me about what I did for fun and about his family.

I met Robert Downey Jr in London back in 2009, I was only 13 , me and my friend went up to him and just started talking to him like a normal person and he just had a normal conversation with us. I didn’t even mention that I am a fan until like 3 mins down the street when we walked, he said he appreciated it and we took a picture. It’s like I knew him, crazy human energy that guys has. He’s a man of the world. He can literally make anyone feel like he’s there friend.

A couple months ago I went into a little cafe in London, and saw Bill Nighy sitting there eating a sandwich. I sat at a table right next to him, too scared to ask for a picture. Then someone else went up to him and said he was an aspiring actor. Bill invited him to sit down and they had a full thirty minute conversation where he gave him acting advice. Made me realize he was incredibly nice and generous. Then someone else asked for a picture, which he was happy to do, then I finally asked him for a picture and told him how much I liked About Time. He said it was his favorite movie he's worked on. Very cool guy.

I met Chris Reeve twice during the summers of 1984 and ‘85 while he was appearing at the Williamstown Theater Festival in Williamstown, Massachusetts. During our first encounter, he signed my lottery ticket that I had purchased that morning ( I still have it!). He was the kindest celebrity I had ever met. He was smart, charming, and very giving of his time spent with fans. The following summer I met him again after a thunderstorm cut the power during the end of the first act of the play. Theater management made the announcement that refunds would be available at the box office. As my girlfriend and I were college students at the time, we opted to wait at the box office with about 12 other people. Most patrons had left and I was so glad to have stayed behind. A side door in the lobby opened and who stepped through- STILL in his theater wardrobe was Chris Reeve. He approached our small group and APOLOGIZED to us for not having the chance to see the entire show! He was absolutely wonderful. Spoke to each of us for a few minutes, then bid us a good evening. THAT MAN HAD TONS OF CLASS!!! True story!! : )

@mznxbcv12345 yes, he didn't give strange children that he didn't know, food. One of them could have been allergic. Most, if not all parents, don't want strangers giving their kids food, either. Just because the 5 year old wants some doesn't mean that the correct response is to give it to them. He was then forced to parent De Niro's kids because they're hanging around the elevator, and he did what he considered to be the right move as a 21 year old with limited experience with children. De Niro wasn't "tactful", he walked away because he was sorta called out for being a shitty parent that just left his kids outside to harass people trying to use the elevator. No idea how any of this is indicative of Krumholtz's character. What I do know is the experience I had when I met him. 🤷‍♂️

I was in the movie ‘Father’s Day’ with my band (we were the band in the movie that the girl was chasing) and we spent a week in Reno shooting our scenes with Robin Williams, Billy Crystal and Ivan Reitman. Robin was the coolest person out of everyone on set. Nobody was nicer to everyone than him. And I mean everyone. During breaks in shooting he would entertain the extras, even strangers walking by - he was so kind and funny and would make everybody laugh and had unlimited energy. He left you smiling. My favorite photo that I have from that week is one where we were posing with the girl lead in the film, for just an on set photo, and guess who ran up behind us and photobombed us - Robin Williams - and he was right behind me in the photo, copying me with a peace sign just like I was doing. What a special human being. So glad I got to experience his passion, warmth and generosity.

Met LL Cool J and his entourage in the Atlanta airport Chili's. His two body guards sat right across a tight aisle from our group, so we were talking with them while people started to recognize J with his managers at another table. (Funny thing is, they said how people would assume they were like ghetto thugs, but they were Div 1 football players with college degrees...) Time starts to go by and J is beset by autograph seekers, literally people handing him babies while he was trying to eat, the restaurant staff started coming out to meet him- and he could not have been nicer or more accommodating to all of them while trying to eat. But our table left him alone.. So at the end as we were all finishing up his two bodyguards thanked us for being considerate and asked if we wanted to meet J, so he came over and hung out with us for a minute or two. Nicest guy ever.

My wife was walking through the crowd at the ESPN bar in Chicago, probably 2001 or 2002, and out of nowhere LL Cool J stepped away from the bar, right into her path. She walked face-first square into his chest. He looked down at her (he had to be a foot taller) and said, "scuse me, little mama" and stepped around her. That was a short encounter but pretty awesome, lol

Peal Jam opened the flood gates to all sorts of new music.

Her friend ignored this and at some point the woman went up to him and welcomed him to Mansfield and he was most gracious.

Met John Rhys-Davies about 10 years ago, I was in Chicago waiting for a flight to London. I heard his unmistakable voice from behind me while sitting at the gate. I turned around and saw him, then whispered to my mom, "mom, don't freak out or turn around fast, but John Rhys-Davies is sitting behind us." She told me to go talk to him. I waited for his phone conversation to end, quietly walked up and knelt down beside his chair, and introduced myself. I told him how I loved his work, specifically his voice acting in an obscure animated television show I loved as a kid called Prince Valiant. He was floored that this 20-something kid with a flat bill hat would reference anything other than LOTR. He was incredibly gracious, took a photo with me, and winked at my mom when he went to board the flight. Saw him briefly again once we landed and he tipped his hat to us and walked off. What a cool guy.

He asked me about noise from the front brakes as he was driving a friend's mini van. I told him it could be the wear sensors or could be dust from driving on gravel roads. A quick car wash should eliminate that, if not time for the shop.I explained the mechanics behind the sensors and how they worked. He thanked me said I was a very nice young man. I knew he looked familiar and I recognized the voice but could not place it. Only when I went in to pay did the station owners, father and son, tell me who he was. Even more curious is that their first and last names were the same as mine. Rod Serling must have been somewhere near by.... ;-)

I had just graduated Highschool, stuck with no one to go to the concert with because me and my gf broke up because I graduated and she was a year younger and blah blah. So I'm there at the show alone because most of my friends at that time were only in to rap, I get to my seat and a beer gets spilled on me during Cobra Starship's set. Great. After +44's set I went outside to chill out and eat a hot dog while they set up for FOB. I notice the area was right next to the band's buses. I see Travis Barker walk out and I ask him to sign my CD booklet but he either ignored me or didn't hear. Mark and the rest of the band walk out at that moment and saw. Mark says "he's tired he had 2 sets" (his side project Expensive Taste also played) they sign my CD booklet and we talk about graduating an my breakup, art and junk food for like 10 minutes. Some other people show up for autographs and he tells me to wait while he signs some people's things. Comes back and asks for my CD booklet, runs inside Travis's bus and runs back out with it signed. Also gave me some guitar picks. Mark Hoppus is the NICEST most genuine famous person I've ever met. Great guy, the +44 guys where chill as hell too.

DeNiro moves at a different pace than a lot of celebrities. Years ago he was filming This Boys Life in Vancouver and a major location was in a forest area where cast and crew had to pass through this narrow road and gate to the park parking lot. It was in the winter and the rain was in hard and for the production assistant at the gate, it was a pretty miserable daily gig. Anyway, one week of filming comes to and end and everyone breaks for the weekend. They come back Monday morning and lo and behold, a little wooden shelter is now beside the gate. DeNiro had seen the production assistant in the rain in each day and felt bad for them. He organized and paid for the shelter to be built for them. That shelter was there for many, many years and was always known by film folks as DeNiro's shack.

I saw Harlan Ellison in front of the Barnes & Noble in Union Square, Manhattan, and I walked up to him and, not 100% sure it was really him, said, "Excuse me, are you a writer?" He smiled and replied, "I try." I laughed and told him I was a fan. It was a great moment, and I'm really happy I got to meet him.

He was in a golf kart with his golden retriever in the back and asked me to help him look for his sunscreen when I walked over with a baseball and a pen. After finding the sunscreen he signed the ball and took a picture with me. It was awesome.

I have a cousin who used to work as Alec Baldwin's personal assistant. One day, she was home visiting my aunt and uncle in Ohio when the phone rang. My uncle answered and it was a man asking for my cousin. My uncle asked who was calling and the man said "Steve." My uncle handed the phone to my cousin, who spoke very comfortably with the man for a few minutes, and then hung up the phone. My uncle asked her who that was. She said, "Dad, that was Steve Martin."

Martin being unassuming by identifying himself simply as Steve, and being a comfortable conversation for the cousin, seems the focus of the story. The Ohio reference is inconsequential background info. Baldwin doesn't come back up because he is only mentioned for context, helping explain why the cousin was acquainted with Martin so that he would call them.

I used to travel a lot for work (around the states and internationally) and in all those decades I've had about 15-20 run-ins with various celebs. I'm a pretty private person so I try to respect their space and never ask for an autograph. No terrible stories but one great one. At the airport in Memphis I had a three hour layover and stepped outside to get some fresh air. Frank Beard and Dusty Hill from ZZ Top were out there smoking cigarettes (this was around 1990?) and spent ten minutes or so chatting with me and being super-chill. You'd never guess they were anything other than "regular" guys. Very cool.

Those I did happen to communicate with though were very nice. My acting teacher once said actors usually have a lot of issues, which is why some become actors, they are just human and as screwed up as everyone else.

I met Chris Walken at the Williamstown Theater Festival in the summer of 1986, where he was performing as Stanley Kowalski in A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE). My professional acting career would dictate I portray the same role years later in a 2009 theater production.) Following the performance, my girlfriend and I raced over to this restaurant/bar where the cast party was being held. The place was empty. A few servers prepping for the party. Not much else. I remember my girlfriend leaning against a wall with me facing her with my back to the bar. I said to her, “Gosh, I sure hope to meet Chris today.”She looked over my shoulder and pointed to the bar. Just above a whisper, she spoke- “He’s right there.” I turned around and there he was - alone, with his back against the bar and working a drink. It was so surreal! We approached and the rest turned into a 20-minute, one-on-one conversation. I was so tempted to break the discussion off by trotting away to retrieve my camera in the car…. But decided to stay. As a young, college-educated actor at the time, I’ll never forget him looking directly into my eyes and asking- “So? You in Showbiz?” My two professional acting influences were “The Two Chrises”- Reeve and Walken. Lucky me. I met BOTH within a year of each other!!

I was holding a tray of apps within the red ropes where celebs are in. He spoke with me for 15-20 minutes. We were HUGE fans of the show and it meant the world that he asked for name and was so down to earth. Dean Cain also was amazing to the fans gathered there. Autographs, pictures, conversation. Bruce Willis and Matthew Perry virtually ignored everyone.
