I've Never Said This Before With Tommy DiDario

This week, we’re taking a fall rewind as Tommy revisits a fan-favorite conversation with Caterina Scorsone, also known as Dr. Amelia Shepherd on Grey’s Anatomy, ahead of the Season 23 premiere in just a few weeks. Caterina opens up about what keeps playing Amelia exciting after almost two decades, why her connection with fans feels so intimate, and which of Amelia’s moments have meant the most to her. She also reflects on exploring Amelia’s meaningful relationship with Kai (played by E.R. Fightmaster), reveals how Amelia was originally conceived as a queer character, and discusses the care she has poured into portraying Amelia’s addiction journey. Caterina also shares her personal relationship with grief, why prioritizing our mental health is so important, and so much more.

On this episode of “Tommy Talk,” Tommy takes you back to Paris in 2015 to share for the very first time the full story of the day his husband Gio surprised him with a proposal in front of the Eiffel Tower, and how one engagement photo unexpectedly became something much bigger than either of them could have imagined. After the photo went viral, Tommy and Gio began receiving deeply moving messages from the LGBTQ+ community who saw new possibilities for their own lives, as well as parents who felt more hopeful about the futures awaiting their children. The experience showed Tommy firsthand how powerful representation can be and that no matter what walk of life we come from, we all just want to feel seen. Eleven years later, Tommy reflects on everything that moment taught him including love still gives people hope, happiness is worth celebrating and that joy, even the joy of complete strangers, can bring us together. In a world that often feels divided, this episode is a heartfelt reminder that there is still so much goodness around us and so many people rooting for love to win.

This week, Tommy is joined by James “Murr” Murray, one of the funniest and most beloved comedians in the world. Audiences fell in love with Murr on the hit series Impractical Jokers, where he and his lifelong friends challenge one another to pull outrageous pranks and embarrass themselves in front of unsuspecting strangers. Now, Murr is flexing his horror muscles as the co-writer and producer of Don’t Move, the new movie based on his bestselling book of the same name. In this episode, Murr opens up about one of the most surprising parts of being a comedian, whether he ever gets tired of being the funny guy, and if any part of Impractical Jokers is staged. He also takes Tommy behind the scenes of what it really takes to bring the show to life, reveals which outrageous moments remain his favorites, explains why the group keeps politics out of its comedy, and shares why wearable technology gives him so much anxiety. Murr also discusses his journey into writing nine horror novels, adapting Don’t Move for the screen, and refusing to wait for someone else to give him permission to make the movie. He shares how he created the opportunity himself, names the one horror film he could watch for the rest of his life, and teases what audiences can expect from future seasons of Impractical Jokers. Murr also reflects on scaling the Empire State Building and opens up about one of the most difficult decisions of his life while his father was dying from Alzheimer’s disease. And don’t miss Murr’s rapid-fire “Hot Takes & Hangouts” interview, part two of this conversation, dropping Thursday, September 17!

On this special episode of “Tommy Talk,” Tommy pays tribute to the lives lost on September 11, 2001, while reflecting on the compassion, courage, and unity that emerged in the aftermath of unimaginable tragedy. Growing up in New Jersey, just outside New York City, Tommy shares his vivid memories of that day and how deeply it affected his community. He also remembers the first responders who ran toward danger, the strangers who became helpers, and the neighbors who looked out for one another when people needed it most. This episode is a heartfelt reminder that we shouldn’t need tragedy to bring us together. Tommy challenges us to carry that same humanity forward by checking in on the people we love, showing greater kindness to strangers, putting aside our differences, and remembering what truly matters in life. May we never forget the victims of 9/11.  Subscribe, rate, and leave a written review if you enjoy this conversation!
