Summary
Chris Lilley, best-known for playing Mr. G in high school drama and notorious for controversial portrayals of Black characters in his TV shows, has started a podcast called *Mr G’s Room* as an alternative to his Netflix-deleted shows due to backlash over his performances. The podcast blends anecdotes from his past shows with personal life updates but admits he’s “making it up as I go along.” Episodes are free but cost $4.99 monthly for extra content, with jokes about acting lessons and references to deleted shows driving its self-centered, comedic tone.
