Show Notes
Hear Dan discuss basketball trick shots, auditioning from home, AI art, and the healing power of laughing with improv dynamo Lauren Lapkus (known most notably for her work on Orange Is The New Black, Big Bang Theory, & Comedy Bang Bang).
Among other things, they chat about her first real acting gig in an improv sketch with Ryan Reynolds, how actors can never know which of their projects might blow up, allowing your current self the same grace you might give your younger self in retrospect, how pointing out fascism in society doesn't matter to the half of us who welcome it, how AI ubiquitousness might bring a new premium to live performances, and how awkward it is when you have something to say in a conversation but the moment passes you by.
This episode features a surprise needle drop of "Select All Delete" by John K Samson.
