Benjamin Howes and Patrick Richwood kick off Season 2 of The Working Actor NYC Podcast with a forward-looking conversation about acting in 2026.

We dig into:

- Whether goals actually help actors — or quietly hold them back

- Why momentum matters more than resolutions

- Trends they’re already seeing in the industry this year

- How working actors can adapt without losing themselves

This episode isn’t about predictions or quick fixes.
It’s about how to think clearly, stay responsive, and build a sustainable acting career in a changing landscape.

Season 2 starts here — with perspective, honesty, and a long view of the work.
