The Ken Marino episode was insufferable—stop mandating your guests to respond the way you want them and just respond normally.
Unsure of tone or what it looked like in the room but cmon dude let him speak!
I know you’re insightful- because you consider yourself insightful- but take it easy. When you hear yourself, you could recognize that you come off as a pretentious, pompous, sycophantic, stuffy, dork.
Unfortunately I found some of the questions and the attitude of the interviewer condescending towards the subjects being interviewed and totally unnecessary when it comes to exploring the craft of acting. I just listened to the episode with Marianne Jean-Baptiste and I honestly couldn’t believe some of the backward questions she received. I couldn’t finish the episode.
Fantastic discussion - interesting, amazing guests - Parker Posey and Carroll Baker?!!?? Can’t get better than that!
Very well done, love hearing a unique perspective from the actors. Peter does a great job interviewing and I love that he really lets the guest talk and tell their story. Keep it up!
