Summary
Get ready for a wild ride with today's guest, Devan Chandler Long, the hilarious heart behind the Viking "Thorfinn" on CBS's Ghosts. In this episode, Devan shares the eerie psychic prediction that saw him playing a Viking weeks before the audition for Ghosts even existed, plus the manifestation games he and his friends used to call in his breakout role. From his "cooking" philosophy of acting to the chaotic, joy-filled energy of working alongside a world-class comedy ensemble, Devan pulls back the curtain on his approach to acting, auditioning, and improvising on a network comedy. He also explains why every audition requires a different process — and how to know when improvisation actually serves the scene. Tune in for a conversation packed with heart, humor, and pure Viking energy. These are the unforgettable stories that landed Devan Chandler Long right here.
