Hey guys, Willie Geist here with another episode of the Sunday Sit Down Podcast.

My thanks is always for clicking and listening along. Very excited to bring in my conversation today

with Glenn Powell, one of the brightest stars in Hollywood. He's starring in a new Richard

Link Later film that he also co-wrote with Link Later, co-produced with Link Later, and stars in called

his long road there's a lesson in here about hanging in there and sticking with it

and believing in yourself and taking all the wisdom from the people around you and

making it add up to something

because he most definitely is having a moment right now a well-deserved one to a

great guy to enjoy being around him he brought brought his dog Brisket with him, a rescue dog. I guess a guy from Texas is going to have a dog named Brisket.
