  Speaker 1: My next guest is an actor, writer, director, and producer.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: He's a series regular on ABC's hit drama A Million
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: Little Things, starring is the character Rome Howard. He is
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: back on the show to talk about the first season
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: and the upcoming second season, and I want to share
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: some very important advice that he gave me. He's the
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: first born American with Trinidadian descent. He has lived from Beataw,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: Texas to Puerto Rico. Please welcome back the money making conversations,
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: Rominy Malcolm. Hey, thank you, Dan. That's a nice interests talk.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: You the best center. I've a gut right there. Thank
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: you very much. Sean, appreciate that. Good. I'm happy to
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: be here. And and I want to know if I could,
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: if I could pigue back on what you were saying about,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you know, if you have a plan that you can
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: make it, Am I allowed to do that? Or do me? Now?
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: Just show us about to do your thing. I just
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: want to say something, you know, uh, you know, Look,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: one of the other things that really inhibits people, I believe,
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: from actually realizing their dreams is simply they have this
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: preconceived notion of what the process should be like. So
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: what that means is they think from what they take
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: things to face value. They they take the success they
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: see your face value, and then so they go into it.
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: And I don't care if you're just selling jewelry, making
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: YouTube videos, or running a fortune five hundred company. The
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: bottom line is is that people are doing a lot
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: of additional work beyond what you're seeing in you know,
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: at face value. So in other words, there's so much
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: extra work that goes on behind the scenes. And I
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: don't don't get me wrong, I'm not talking about paying dudes.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Yes there's paying dudes, but there's also simple strategies and
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: techniques that we need mentors and we need non provental
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: care and adults to inform us of because we hadn't
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: walked that path. And it's those little bits of insight
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that saved us so much time. I wish I had
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: known that when I was younger. I caused to be
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: allowed further the head of my own life. That's all.
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: But isn't that part of the growing process process too,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: you know? Because I always go back and I always
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: tell people what you learn in your twenties, it's really
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: what the structure of what you're going to be successful
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: in your forties and your fifth because that's when you
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: were fearless. That's when you had the dreams, and if
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: anybody told you a question, you you tended to ignore that.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: But as you got older, you got into relationships, and
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: you start worried about the position you are in life.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: You know, that fear of change, that fear of I bet,
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: I bet, I've been a hold back on this, so
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: the whole back and what you say, right, no, but no,
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: But there's some value to that though, because you know
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: something real talk. I have to say that there was
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: definitely a fearlessness, uh you know, in my youth. But
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: also what there was was this uh lack of awareness
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: of self. And because of that lack of awareness of self,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I had these unaddressed issues. So by not knowing myself
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: and not knowing what I was capable of, I was
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: kind of afraid to compose myself, if that makes any sense.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Very much. A lot of people tell me, Yeah, people say, yo, well,
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: I'm you're so underrated. I'm not underrated, really, I'm just scared.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: So I'm the dude to avoid a lot of the
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: avoided a lot of great opportunities simply because I was
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: afraid that I would be exposed as not being worthy
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: you're good enough. So I actually took I, I actually
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: took refuge, and I found uh joy in being able
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: to be the side dude, being able to be the
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: supporting actor, you know. And you know, that was really
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: a biproduct of just like deeper insecuty that hadn't been addressed.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: So I think that, you know, we have a fair
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: offenses with kids, but there's a subconscious thing as well
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: where maybe we've been convinced by you know, by our
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: environment that we're not worthy. Not saying that it's true,
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: we've just been convinced of it. And so I think
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: sometimes there's a lot of value in northern Northern American countries.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: We tend to overlook, uh, the need to resolve those
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: issues as we pursue success. You know, it's not just
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: about will power. There is a resolve. Most of the
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: wealthy people that helped me make my movies, that helped
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: me make my money, they have all had to put
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: themselves in that vulnerable position of getting to know themselves better.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: Because on the on the movie Prison Logic, there was
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: you did when you came on the show last time,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: there was a crowdfunded movie. Correct, it was cloud fund
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: the movie. Now here was my strategy on that. This
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: is the prime example of what I'm saying about getting
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: to know the ins and outs of something. I uh
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: did so much research on cloud funding, had no idea
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: that it wasn't just about you know, starting up and
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: asking your fans and money. There was so much strategy
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: and to be quite frank, like that cloud funding game
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: as shady as hell, and you you would not believe it,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: all the all the skulls that we could go on
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: behind the scenes and being able to learn and understand that.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: But what I did was I used the cloud funding
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: campaign to attract investors. So here's the prime example of
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: a strategy you might not know. You never asked for
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: a hundred percent of what you want when you're running
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: a cloud funding campaign. Always asked about because statistically, a
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: successful cloud funding campaign will be funded on average between
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: two hundred to a thousand percent of asking. So that
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: means that if you're asking for a hundred thousand and
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: your campaign is successful, your gamantee to make somewhere between
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: two hundred thousand and a million, you get im saying, so,
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: so the my math might be off there you saw.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: I got a little secure when I saw that calculator.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: You are comedian. You're all comedians like um so so anyway,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: so what I did was I made the crowd find
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: the campaign successful by asking for half of what I wanted,
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: and then went to investors, show the infestics, look, this
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: campaign is hot and people like to see a train
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: this role. And like my manager told me, sometimes you
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: gotta start your party and then sending out the invitations.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: And that's kind of what I did. I used the
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: campaign to attract infestors by making the campaign look like
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: you had a huge following and a lot of people
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: that were back in it. That inspired and motivated the investors.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: And so we ended up doing that. Um I made
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: the movie. I started to winning stuff at all these
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: different festivals, and I didn't even listen. I wasn't in
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: sun Dance and all those festivals. I was actually in
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the festivals that were hosted in places where people had
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: given me money. And I said, We're gonna submit to
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: them festivals. We went to them festivals. We was winning
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: best Lead Audience Audience Award, that edited the best music
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: lesson right then, James Little pay us from Will Packer's company.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Saw that I loved it, took it to Will Packer.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: They called me like eleven o'clock at night, you wanted
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to talk about it. I got on the phone with
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: In fact, that's my Instagram post this morning. I got
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: on the phone with them, and the next thing you know,
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: we were selling it to Smith Global Media, which is
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: will Will Smith's brother, Hay Smith. The first time I
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: got on the phone with him, I thought they was
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: plunking me. I really thought it was Will because they
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: sound so much like But anyway, so that movie comes
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: out next year to feed where look for it. Okay,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: you know, we have so much great things we've talked
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: about so far. I'm gonna wrap up this particular break
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: Let's talk about the movie that's coming out in November
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: called Holiday Rush, that's coming on Netflix. Let's let's wrap
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: this break up talking about that call Holiday Rush that's
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: coming out of the Netflix in November. Correct, man, let
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: me tell you something that I don't know. If you
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: know who Leslie Small is, he's a man. Come on,
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: come on. He did like three Neighborhood Awards. He directed
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: like three Neighborhood Awards for me. I know leslie small. Okay, dude,
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: that that's first of all, ask my brother. This dude
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: is incredible. One of the most inspiring human beings I've
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: ever met. This dude. He's directed Kevin Hard to stand up?
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Can Willians stand up? He name a big comedian, he's
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: he's he's hit him in their prime. Right. So he's like, Yo,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: I want you to do this movie. I want you
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to play the lead. And again, like I said, the man,
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: securities kicked there and I was like, you wanted me
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: to play the lead? You want to meet like Romany
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Maunco to play lead, Romany Malco living in Puerto Rico,
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: to put Texas at Baytown, Texas. Right, I'm like, you
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: want to meet Baker And he was like yes, So
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: let me take something I felt insecure making the whole
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: movie where he cast Sniqua Martin Green, he cast Dion Cole.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: These people showed up so on, so on, another level
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: of prepared and funny, and they forced me to tap
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: into something in myself that I didn't even know I had.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: And I kept going to him every other scene and
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: being like, are you sure, because I'm sure? Because you're
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: not sure? He says You're not supposed to feel comfortable here.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: You're supposed to be being stretching. That's what happened. So
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: here what happened. So we make the movie I go away,
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: I come back, so I have to do a b R.
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: So I have to do a b R like maybe
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: like four months later. And that's where you kind of
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: put your your match. You have to fix some dialogue
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: that didn't go right in the movie. And I get
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: to see about fifteen minutes of this movie. Oh my god,
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed watching this movie.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: I play a single father, a widowed father of four kids.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I have said the twins. I have a preteen and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: a preteen daughter and a teenage son who's about to
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: go to college. And I'm a big time holiday I'm
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: I'm a big time radio host, just like you you know,
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: and you know, and and and then all of a sudden,
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: my station gets sold to some people that are talking
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: about they going in a different direction. And I have
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: no job, I have nothing, and me and my family,
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: you know, after losing our wife, losing my wife and
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: and then my kid's mother, we kind of went down
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: the superficial road to kind of just you know, uh,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: put a band aid over the hurt that we were feeling.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: And now we have to learn new values because we
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: can't get we can't be superficial anymore, we can't afford
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: to be. And so it's the story about the family
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: learning real value. Great director, great production, cham work. If
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: the Netflix is pretty dope. Absolutely my man Leslie Smallst director.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: When we come back, he's on the roll. But this
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: next break the ratchet. This show on TV I'm talking
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: about on ABC. We're talking about A Million Little Things.
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: He's one of the stars. He plays the character Rome
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: Howard Romeney Malco cool. He's back. You heard about the
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: Holiday Rush, which you will be coming on Netflix in November.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: UM Project Logic, U Prison Logic, which were just brought
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: up and becoming out in UM. Now the show on
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: ABC renewed for a second season, which means that's a
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: regular check. That's what you love a boy TV s,
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: It's a regular check. It's called A Million Little Things.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: I've seen that I've seen the show, so we can
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: really talk about it. Uh, let's let's get it before
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: him get started about the whole character development in the
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: arc of the series, because it opens with a very
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: dramatic scene because you're about to commit suicide. Correct, I was, Yes,
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: that's correct. Um. So I played a character named Rome
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: who on the show Million Middle Things, and um my
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: character deals with depression and it maybe he believes he's
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: been genetically predisposed to depression. And he was in the
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: process of committing suicide when he found out that his
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: best friend had actually followed too. And that's what saved
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: my phone call, a phone call from another best friend. Yes,
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: phone call from another best friend saying your best friend
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: just killed themselves. And this best friend was interesting because
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: of the fact that and you look at everything, he
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: lived the perfect life. That's what you all we all thought,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: you know, the wife, the kids, he was success. You know,
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: a good looking guy's suits fitting right, and he committed
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: suicide and uh and so and so it's really a
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: key couple of key moments in there. I'm gonna let
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: the story the evelop in the interview because it was
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: really important because usually that character. I'm just talking about
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: how you've assimilated your skill level in acting that fourth character,
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: which is his character, which is the wrong character is
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: normally white. Yes, yeah, absolutely right. They love because dude,
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: this is deep. Okay, well let's go that in. I'm
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: gonna right now, I'm gonna jump in and say this,
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: and you know what, there's going to be people who
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: may disagree with me, but I'm gonna let you know.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: If you're on the show where uh, if you're if
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: you're a person of color on the show and there
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: is no writer, there's no representation, there's no color in
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: the room, Ah, it is probably going to be to
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: your detriment. And the reason is because we're at the
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: time where if you misrepresent color, you could be boycotted.
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: And so authentic depictions of of of color are especially important.
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: And so if there's no color in the room, they're
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: not even gonna go there. They're not gonna know how
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: to depict you authentically. And so, to my uh show
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: creator's credit, he did sit down with me for two years,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: two years discussing this character and what he believed that
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: this character would go through. And it was probably the
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: only way that I could see myself committing to a
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: network television show. Um. And the story is really about
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: a black man dealing A part of the story is
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: about a black man dealing with depression. We also have
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: another story, which is a phenomenal story about a couple
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: who are cancer survivors and they actually met in a
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: cancer support group. And the whole point of the show
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: is to kind of show you the life goes on.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: But on top of all of that, in the midst
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: of all of that, the friend of ours who committed
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: suicide right his wife was having an affair with his
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: best friend. Y'all be friends some of the y'all's best
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: friends with our best friends exactly. We don't find out
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: what's happened on the show unless we read, you know,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: until we read the script. We do these tables. Sometimes
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: I'm like, you gotta be you gotta be kiddy. This
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: is not just like I'll worry for the calcause I'm
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: like black Twitter gonna like this character. Sometimes I can
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: sometimes just go through highlighting, you know from black Twitter,
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: and just said and sent it to my cast. But
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I tell you because i I've seen something episode but
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: that pilot. But when you watch that pilot and he
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: he breaks the album because we can talk about show,
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: because do you want to go in to ABC you
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: can get some of the past episodes, and when he
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: cries and admit to that that he saved his life,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: his the death of his the suicide of his best friend,
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: saved his life. And there at the game and he
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: starts crying. I'm going a black man crying at a
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: hockey game. That is un unprecedented. But that's what makes
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: it serious. But that's what makes it serious because, like
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: I said, you know he's his beautiful wife. You know
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: you again, this is another situation. Just like the lead
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: who killed himself. He looks like he has a perfect
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: he's a handsome guy. His wife's beautiful. Okay, well, what's
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: missing in that relationship They don't know where they are
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: at and no kids are in that relationship. Okay, So
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: that's kind of where we're leading into the into the
• 14:48
  Speaker 1: next season. First of all, the wife of the dead
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: best friend, she's pregnant with the best friend. The best
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: friend he filed divorce from the wife, so who can
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: go be with her? And he wind up moving in
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: with his other best friend who's a cancer survivor. And
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: then all of them, but all everybody acting like everything
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: cool though like this normal, Oh man, this is this
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: is this is like this is. One of the things
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: that I love about the show is that what it
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: really does is it shows you how people use avoidance
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: as a coping mechanism and how it always comes back,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: It always comes around to just it leads to more suffering.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Even in my personal life, I have learned looking back
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: in my personal life, you know, most of my suffering
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: has come from denial and inauthenticity and the need to control.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: I eiven need to try to control something, make it
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: what it wasn't and that ended up causing a lot
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: of suffering. Or I was just not keeping a percent
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: with myself and that ended up causing a lot of sufferings.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: Or I'm just completely in denial and this show is
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: all three of them things, man right, right right? It
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: really is. And then it is a key moment in
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: this pilot episode you go back and watch it is
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: what the secretary does, the actions secretary. I'm trying not
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: to give it away. You can't give you can't, okay,
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: but the actions of the secretary because you because it
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: leaves you going, what is she doing? Why she do that?
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: What's what's going on here? But if we'll leave it
• 16:19

• 16:26
  Speaker 1: really go back. It's like it's like game or throng.
