Ten years ago this weekend, a television series premiered that has been called one of the best ever. Breaking Bad challenged our ideas about what a TV drama could do and introduced the world to some actors who would go on to establish a major presence. One was recent q guest Bryan Cranston, but RJ Mitte also broke out in his boundary-busting role as Walt Jr. who — like Mitte — has cerebral palsy.

RJ Mitte joins us to look back on the show that changed his life and helped pave the way forward for actors with disabilities.
