In this episode of the WOLF Media Festival Podcast, we get to chat with actor Jason Bernardo and discuss his powerful role in A Long Road to Tao, a film based on the true story adapted from The Tao of Surfing by Pulitzer Prize-nominated author Michael A. Allen. Jason shares his transformative journey preparing for the role, which included losing 30 pounds to portray a professional surfer facing the challenges of the AIDS epidemic in the late 80s. We dive into the film’s themes of friendship, loss, and self-discovery, and explore Jason’s diverse background, from his early acting days to his passion for surfing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and transcendental meditation. Tune in for an inspiring conversation about art, life, and the pursuit of meaning---and craving chicken and waffles when its not even really your thing :)
