Monica Padman: Co-Creator of Armchair Expert With Dax Shepard, Producer, Writer, and Actor
With the launch of her first show alongside Dax Shepard in 2018, Monica Padman became one of the biggest podcasters in the game. That year, Armchair Expert was the most-downloaded podcast of the year and won iHearts Radio’s Best New Podcast Award.

But back before Padman’s insightful and charming voice was living in our heads rent-free, her idea of success was to land a job acting—specifically, on the next Friends. On this episode, hear how Padman found herself on a path beyond her wildest dreams by embracing what unfolded in front of her.
