How Were U Brainwashed?

"Grindr for Actors" (w/ Paul Marcarelli)

Season 2, Ep. 60

Jenny & Nicole welcome actor, writer, producer, and commercial superstar Paul Marcarelli to the pod!


They get into permanently changing your eye color, auditioning to play an airplane seat, not identifying as happy, pre-Ellen vs. post-Ellen, if there is any good job, if there's a difference between advertising and propaganda, and who among them would make the perfect Traitor.
