The Dexterverse, Colombian Pride & Thanks Mami Con James Martinez

  • Summary

  • In this episode, we sit down with the incredibly talented James Martinez (Dexter: Original Sin, House of Cards, Breaking Bad, Love, Victor), who takes us on a deeply personal and inspiring journey through his life and career.

    From growing up in Jackson Heights, NY, to his Colombian mother’s resilience after his father’s passing, James shares how a dedicated teacher encouraged him to apply to the prestigious Juilliard School—a move that changed everything. He also takes us back to his early days as a teenage impersonator in NYC comedy clubs, long before he found himself on set with Hollywood’s biggest names.

    We also dive into how James balances marriage, fatherhood, and an intense acting career, plus what it was like working alongside icons like Giancarlo Esposito, Patrick Dempsey, and Christian Slater. And in an exclusive, James gives us a sneak peek at his latest project—a "Freestyle" play with his friend/mentor David Zayas.

    🎭 From comedy clubs to critically acclaimed roles, this is a must-listen for anyone who loves stories of perseverance, artistry, and the magic of Hollywood.
