  • Smart, sweet and above all, hilarious

    Shauna, Nicole, Hayley and Alex do more than just dish on pop culture (though they do that well,) they go deep into topics like representation and inclusivity, all while being so very funny and charming. My favorite way to spend 45 or so minutes every week.

The little mermaid was so influential on me growing up; I watched that movie probably hundreds of times and acted it out.

It means they're paying you every week, so you don't necessarily have to wait tables or drive a cab, and they promote you within.

Q: How did you first get into acting?
I was raised sort of in a trunk in the theater; my dad was a British actor with a long career, and I just felt acting was attainable if I applied myself.
