This week, Eric finds himself caught between Hollywood dreams, suspicious negotiations, questionable personal protection plans and the increasingly complicated business of being Eric the Actor.

A potentially life-changing opportunity is on the horizon, but as anyone who knows Eric can tell you, nothing is ever as simple as saying yes. There are mysterious conversations, accusations of betrayal, unusual demands, bruised egos and a growing cast of characters who all seem to have very different ideas about what's best for Eric.

Meanwhile, Howard discovers that even doing someone an enormous favor can somehow turn into an international incident. The road to stardom has never had so many obstacles, and some of them are sitting right next to Eric.

Through it all, we get the Eric we love. Stubborn, suspicious, occasionally grateful, accidentally hilarious and always capable of turning the smallest misunderstanding into an unforgettable moment.

This show comes from a place of genuine affection for Eric. He was a truly unique character who could make you laugh, scream at your radio and somehow root for him all at the same time. He was ahead of his time in so many ways, and it's an honor to keep revisiting the incredible little universe he created.

A portion of every donation to the show goes to The Ehlers-Danlos Society in Eric's name.

I go back through Eric’s calls to The Howard Stern Show, the feuds, the acting jobs, the demands, the schemes, the Twitter wars, the random side characters and all the tiny details that somehow made every Eric appearance feel like its own little universe.

This show comes from a place of genuine affection for Eric. He could be impossible, stubborn, unintentionally hilarious and completely unpredictable, but that’s exactly what made him special. There has never been another character quite like him.

He was ahead of his time in so many ways, and it is an honor to tell his story.
