Today on The Neil Haley Show, Neil "The Media Giant" interviews Mason Beals. Growing up in Coeur d\u2019Alene, Idaho, Mason Beals\u2019 earliest acting endeavors included playing \u201csuperheroes\u201d with his brothers. As a teen, he spent most of his time on the family\u2019s property in Bonners Ferry, Idaho, where he helped his parents build an off-grid homestead. In 2017, Mason moved to Austin, Texas, where he began to create his own short films and act on camera whenever he could. Since then, in Los Angeles, he\u2019s continued writing, producing, directing, and starring in multiple short films, but his first major role, as a young Theodore Roosevelt in the series ELKHORN, has set him apart. Season 1 was inspired by Roosevelt\u2019s first months in the Badlands of the Dakota Territory where he struggled to establish ELKHORN, the ranch for which the series is named.
