Stan Rizzo from Mad Men, Jay Ferguson: On acting, romance, and his love of trivia

Mark Thompson and Heather Ankeny welcome Jay Ferguson from Mad Men.

You may never guess that Jay Ferguson, Stan Rizzo from the hit TV series Mad Men, is a trivia hound.  Mark tosses him a few trivia questions on the fly.

You also may never have guessed that Jay fell into a deep decline and considered leaving his craft of acting and show business….Mad Men arrived just as he was building it back.

Jay tells the story of the fall from the top of series work as a young actor and the way he stopped his fall.

Fans of romance will love the way Jay met his wife…You may be surprised the way cigarette lighters enter the story and how they are the mark of attraction in this case.

Jay tells the story of “WRONG ANSWER KENT” and WHO WANTS TO BE A MILLIONAIRE….Jay’s father had always obsessed with being on the original Who Wants to be a Millionaire with Regis.  One day, he finally made it.  Jay shares the tale of why at the last second he could not be his father’s “phone a friend” lifeline but connected him with his buddy Kent, and then Jay’s actually able to be there—sort of–when his father calls and he listens in on the call.  Take the ride as his Dad calls while on “Millionaire” to get help from his trivia buff son and his friend Kent.

jeapordyJosh Weinstein (Freaks and Geeks and Mystery Science Theater 3000) sits in with Heather and Mark and is already a show favorite, as he’s irrepressibly funny and even reveals that he was a Jeopardy question.  Oh, and by the way, he’s a trivia monster….and so it begins.
