DRAMA. with Connor & Dylan MacDowell13 Nov 2024

"The Clock Twink" with Ben Ahlers

Dylan and Connor are joined by Ben Ahlers (The Gilded Age, Tender Napalm). The wait is over. The time? Is now. Is your alarm going off? It should be, because everyone’s favorite Clock Twink is on the pod! Ben Ahlers joins the twins ahead of his New York off-Broadway debut in Tender Napalm. Learn about the origins of this play by Philip Ridley, and what it’s like co-starring with Victoria Pedretti (Netflix’s You and The Haunting of Hill House). Ben takes us back to Iowa to discuss his theatrical roots, as well as Gavin Creel’s impact on him ahead of pursuing a life in the arts. We of course dig deep into The Gilded Age. Ben teases what’s in store for footman Jack Trotter in season 3, and reflects on “growing up” with Louisa Jacobson on television. Juicy behind-the-scenes tidbits galore, y’all. Next up, Ben stars as John Wilkes Booth in a new play by Mad Men’s Matthew Weiner. Other topics include Dogfight starring River Phoenix, Ragtime at NYCC, Maggie Rogers’ music, Joshua Henry’s onstage tears, and much, much more.
