The Bold and the Beautiful and Baywatch have more in common than being international hit series! Recently, two actors who appeared on those shows got together for a serious talk when Jacob Young (ex-Rick, BB) interviewed Baywatch star David Chokachi on Young’s podcast about mental health.
Jacob Young and David Chokachi
Chokachi appeared as lifeguard Cody Madison on Seasons 6 through 9 of Baywatch. The character was known not only for his skills as a lifeguard but also for being generous, compassionate, and funny. Cody gave up his Olympic dreams in order to complete a rescue, saving someone’s life in the process.
“This is what Real Conversations is all about,” Young posted on Instagram, “@therealdavidchokachi is an inspiration to me, his fans, and everyone who knows him. David, thank you for being so open on the subject of mental health. One interview at a time we will continue to lift the [veil] of shame that society has put upon anyone struggling.
