Goldstein mentioned that analysis was once helpful when taking up his position.
“Because it’s the same process of empathizing with the character, and then when I was playing it, I just thought about PTSD. I know what it’s like when you’re in a car accident, it sort of loops in your head. So I would just kind of loop it before a scene,” he mentioned.
The only factor Goldstein mentioned he dislikes essentially the most about being a part of the form: Having to shave his beard.
“I cried. I’ve had a beard my whole life. I was born with a beard,” he mentioned. “Also I discovered sadly that it turns out women don’t like me for my personality.”
