I don’t talk to animals, they talk to me ft Malachi Kirby
2026/02/02
Hey guys, welcome back to Faking Adulthood — home of the fake adults 🎧 This week I’m joined by actor Malachi Kirby — an old friend and all-round legend. You might know him as Hezekiah in A Thousand Blows, now streaming on Disney+, but with me he’s my friend Malachi. We talk birthdays, friendship, talking to animals (don’t ask, just listen), and what it was really like working on A Thousand Blows. Malachi shares insight into the role, the series, and why it’s one you should absolutely have on your watch list. It’s funny, honest, and very fake-adult energy. Hope you enjoy! Please don’t forget to rate, share and comment!! ❤️ Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
