Try to imagine what he did: being at the top of the Hollywood game—one of the most aspirational in the world—to quit and start a revolutionary nonprofit organization, the Anti-Recidivism Coalition, so you can focus your energy and influence on criminal justice reform.

John is joined by Janelle Jokes (instagram.com/janellejokes) to discuss the episode and to talk about her two favorite things.
