Murray Bartlett

We've been fans of Murray Bartlett's for years, so it was an absolute delight to talk to him on this week's EXQUISITE episode! Now you know Murray from a million things, as the Emmy Award-winning supporting actor from The White Lotus, as well as from The Last of Us, Welcome to Chippendales, Looking, Nine Perfect Strangers and so much more including the wonderful Apple TV+ show Maximum Pleasure Guaranteed (starring former guest Tatiana Maslany!), which just finished its first season! This is just a small sampling of Murray's CV, but today we're getting to know the real person behind the roles, and folks, he's a joy! We talk about Perth in the 1980s, moving across Australia to live with his first boyfriend, acting as a doorway to flawed self-perception as well as therapy as a tool to fix one's perception of oneself, and SO MUCH MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!
