CONNOR RATLIFF presents THE ACTING CLASS is an ongoing series of live and filmed performances which pretend to be real acting classes. This companion podcast features professional actor/comedian CONNOR RATLIFF talking about the show and about acting in general. As the creator as one of the most acclaimed podcasts of the past decade -- Dead Eyes , cited by TIME Magazine & Left Of Dial Media's lists of the 'best 100 podcasts of all time' and featured in the book The Podcast Pantheon , published by Chronicle Books in 2025 -- it should be clear that this podcast will not attempt to achieve the same level of quality or acclaim as that one. This podcast is going to be a sloppy mess. It was conceived in desperation, as a way to attract attention to an ongoing series of live shows and online videos while struggling to maintain a consistent level of employment as a working actor in desperate times. It is possible that almost no one will listen to this podcast, or that a small number of people might sample it once and never listen again. Minus the celebrity hook of Dead Eyes, it may be that the appeal of this endeavor will be as low as double or single digit listenership. Which is fine. It's 2025 and time is marching on, and life is rapidly slipping away from all of us. Thank you for engaging with CONNOR RATLIFF presents THE ACTING CLASS: THE PODCAST in any way. We realize that you have an overwhelming amount of options for entertainment, education and simply passing the time. You could be listening to the works of the greatest composers or musicians of all time, enjoying the finest works of cinema or literature, or even listening to a better class of podcast. Every second that you waste listening to this one is an unfathomable choice and greatly appreciated. I will try to be interesting and apologize if I am not. more

I know what it feels like to crave stability while your heart still burns for storytelling and performance. For a long time, I tried to fix that tension by doing more: side projects, 'this might be it' business ideas, and relationships that kept me busy but not fulfilled. I was juggling roles, exhausted, and often lonely, trying to hold together work, creativity, and my inner life by sheer willpower. Spiritually, I carried a lukewarm faith—praying when things got heavy, then going straight back to hustling on my own and wondering why I still had no peace.What finally changed wasn't a big break, but letting God into my everyday decisions and learning to build emotional stability from the inside out.
