John Ross Bowie joins Jace to discuss returning as Barry Kripke in Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, the new Big Bang Theory spinoff premiering July 23 on HBO Max. John explains how the series takes Stuart, Denise, Bert and Kripke into a different universe with each episode while keeping the story grounded in the relationships between its characters. He also talks about expanding Kripke beyond his familiar punchlines, reuniting with Kevin Sussman, Lauren Lapkus and Brian Posehn, and working on the first Chuck Lorre series built around extensive visual effects. John also reflects on the lasting impact of Speechless, why its edgy and absurd comedy was sometimes misunderstood, and the response the series continues to receive from families affected by disability. Plus, he previews his role as Kenneth Adelman in The Brink of War alongside Jeff Daniels, Jared Harris and J.K. Simmons and discusses the immersive Stuart Fails to Save the Universe experience coming to San Diego Comic-Con. Stuart Fails to Save the Universe premieres July 23, 2026, on HBO Max.
