This week on BEFORE THE BREAK, the boys sit down with actor, Nelson Ascencio. He's appeared in the films, Paul and The Hunger Games. On TV he’s been on such shows as Master of None, Kevin Can Wait, Blue Bloods, Broad City, Manifest, and Law & Order. He’s had recurring roles on Mad TV, Tales of the City, and White House Plumbers. We discuss immigrating to America from Cuba as a child, attending a summer theatre program in NYC, the importance of bringing yourself to your auditions and work, getting into the comedy scene in L.A., quitting the industry for a decade, lasting relationships that have molded his career, moving back to NYC, and how his career took off later in life. That and much more!
