Find out how McManus became The GEICO Caveman without formal acting training - or even a professional headshot for his audition. He didn't let self-doubt or his sparse resume prevent him from going after the role. It took talent and grit to be selected from the pool of 1,000+ applicants; however, McManus teaches us that living a more fascinating life is so easy, even you can do it! It's all about your attitude and approach to daily opportunities. Interesting people take risks and try new things. So, take a chance, try something different, set a goal, and give it your best shot. Bring 100% of your authentic self and let your light shine.
He LOVES all things cinema. Brace yourself as we get a little nerdy about films. Do you think movies have become a bit boring? McManus provides us with several recommendations and discusses his solution to help people better select entertainment that is suited for their unique tastes.
We also talk about Michael Jackson, butt rubs, and farts. But not all at once.
Then stick around for a few rounds from The Very Interesting Game Show®! Where would you like to grow hair on your body, and what function would you give it besides just being hair?
