The TV Dudes A Weekly TV Podcast Discussion

This week, Les chats with actor Kevin Mambo. Mambo can currently be seen on the new Netflix drama, 'Hit & Run' as an NYPD detective with a wry sense of humor who has seen it all. Mambo had large roles on hit series such as 'Luke Cage' and 'High Maintenance' and he is a two-time Daytime Emmy winner from his leading role on the long-running soap opera 'Guiding Light'. We discuss all that, plus his stage and film work, and much more.

This week, Les chats with actor and musician Todd Almond. Todd recently toured the U.S. in his original musical 'Kansas City Choir Boy' starring alongside rock icon Courtney Love. His musical 'Girlfriend' – based on the Matthew Sweet album of the same title – is a perennial favorite for theater companies around the country. Todd also appears on HBOMax's new 'Gossip Girl' series, as well as on Broadway in the new musical 'Girl From The North Country'. This Christmas, he has an album of carefully chosen covers, holiday favorites, and originals called 'A Pony For Christmas' and we discuss recording it, song selection, Todd's incredible career, and much more.

This week, Les talks with Kimberley Locke about the release of her new album Christmas is Here. When Kimberley auditioned for the 2003 series of “American Idol”, it was a life-changing decision as she eventually placed as second runner-up, signed to Curb Records, and became a successful recording artist. Kimberley released three full-length albums with the label, had eight Top 20 Adult Contemporary hits and four #1 Dance hits across various Billboard charts and her #1 club hit, a remake of the Freda Payne classic “Band of Gold,” was included on Billboard’s “Top 50 Dance Songs of the Decade” list. She’s also made history as being the only recording artist to score a #1 Christmas song on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart three years in a row. We chat about all that, and she talks about her plans for the album release concert on December 13 at 7pm at Birdland Jazz NYC. Tickets available at birdlandjazz.com. Check it out!
