It’s Christmas at Tres Leches HQ and we have FOUND HIM: Hallmark’s very own Robbie Simpson from Finding Mr. Christmas Season 2.
Ian and Juan sit down with Robbie to talk about being the only gay cast member on Hallmark’s breakout holiday reality hit, what it really takes to be a “Hallmark leading man,” and why earnest, ooey-gooey Christmas movies might actually be emotional support cinema for the broken-hearted.
Robbie also spills about:
• Going from full-frontal off-Broadway in Afterglow to the Hallmark cinematic universe
• His decade-long friendship with Mary Kate Morrissey and watching her soar as Elphaba in Wicked
• Running a musical theatre program at Stella Adler/NYU and why who you are as a human is the work
• Getting eliminated right after winning immunity (justice for Episode 4!) and what the edit didn’t show
In Spilled Milk, the leches answer a holiday letter from a listener who feels like a confident success everywhere but at home, where they’re suddenly back to being the insecure queer kid at the table. How do you reconcile those two versions of yourself—especially at Christmas?
Pour some coquito, hit play, and come feel all the feelings with us.
