John Benjamin Hickey, who won a Tony for his role in “The Normal Heart,” isn't a stranger to the grueling schedule of theater. He started hosting his own radio show on Sirius.

We spoke about contrived intimacy, dating within your profession, and why Six Degrees of Separation is sadly still timely.
