In a recent episode of Jesse Tyler Ferguson's Dinner's on Me podcast, award-winning actor Bryan Cranston shared some shocking stories about his close encounters with murder. While enjoying a meal of poke and salmon curry, Cranston recounted two separate incidents from his early years that indirectly involved murder.
During the mid-70s, Cranston and his brother Kyle were travelling across the United States. Low on funds, they decided to take a break in Florida and found jobs as waiters at a restaurant called the Hawaiian Inn. The restaurant was run by a difficult and cantankerous chef named Peter Wong, who had a reputation for disliking everyone. The staff, aware of Wong's affinity for women, devised various playful ways to imagine doing away with him. Jokingly, they discussed using a meat grinder or hitting him over the head with his own wok. Cranston recalled how they would entertain themselves with these dark conversations in the kitchen, fully aware of the numerous possibilities for causing harm.
