AD 3 into Final Q

Actor Milo Ventimiglia sits down with Bobby and shares what he learned working alongside Will Smith, then breaks down the TV breakthroughs that changed his life—from getting on the map with Gilmore Girls to launching into a whole new stratosphere with This Is Us. He also gets real about the “99 no' before a yes” grind, how he memorizes lines, and when you’re allowed to ad-lib (and when a set won’t let you change a single word). Plus, the unexpectedly hilarious side of Milo: Blue Angels stories, “chirping,” and why he has very strong opinions about passing out mid-flight and what it was like learning to sing for a new role when vocals weren’t even in his bag of tricks.

Kaitlin Butts sits down with Bobby to break down how “You Ain’t Gotta Die” went from a song in her set to the one people show up already knowing—thanks to a viral moment, a karaoke run-in, and a soundcheck decision that unexpectedly changed everything. She talks about why the track feels cathartic to sing, what it’s like hearing a crowd belt it back, and how leaning into vulnerability on stage has become the whole point. Plus: growing up between city life and Oklahoma country life, navigating industry attention after the song popped, and why being fully yourself is the only strategy that lasts.
