What does it take to survive in Hollywood for 30 years without giving up? And how can a single viral video change everything?

In this episode of Hawke Talk, I sit down with actor and digital creator, the one and only Adam Rose to trace his incredible three-decade-long journey in the entertainment industry. He shares stories from his start as a nine-year-old in a Woody Allen film to the years of grinding as a working actor on shows like Veronica Mars. Adam gets real about the constant hustle and the moments of doubt, revealing how a pivot to creating content during the pandemic led to a life-changing viral TikTok dance that was eventually licensed by Fortnite.

We dive into how he cracked the code on social media algorithms and used that success to finally revitalize his acting career. The core of our conversation centers on his powerful, simple advice for anyone chasing a dream: never, ever quit. Adam believes in applying constant pressure, because if you stop, nothing will ever break. His story is a raw and inspiring testament to the power of relentless perseverance and adapting to the opportunities right in front of you.
