Michael Rapaport on divorce, acting, Weinstein, DeNiro Oct 17, 2017

Show notes

"I'm an emotional person," says actor Michael Rapaport. If you've seen him on TV and movies - Friends, Black-ish, Louie, Atypical, Mighty Aphrodite - you may know this. Michael stopped by the studio last week to talk about his new series White Famous on Showtime, and revealed all sorts of reasons he gets emotional. Listen in - and buckle up! - for his thoughts on acting, sports, teenage boys, divorce, therapy, Robert De Niro, Trump and Harvey Weinstein.

Warning: Michael's not a clean-language kind of guy.

Carrie Preston Oct 02, 2017

Show notes

It's Elsbeth from The Good Wife! And Arlene from True Blood. Even if you don't know Carrie Preston by name, odds are you know her from TV. The prolific character actor also writes, directs and produces. And fun stuff! She's married to actor Michael Emerson, a.k.a. Ben Linus on Lost and Harold Finch on Person of Interest. We talk about why friends call her tenacious, how she felt when her husband landed a gig on her fave TV series, juggling film sets, scripts and life while going back and forth between NY and LA—and we get REALLY into talking about our favorite TV series and the very best series finale of all time.

Miriam Shor on Younger, parenting, quirks Sep 05, 2017

Show notes

Younger TV star Miriam Shor is hilarious onscreen and off! She cracks Kara up with anecdotes about her kids, driving lessons, Game of Thrones and a weird cheese habit. The actress (of Darren Star's TV Land hit Younger + The Good Wife, Damages, etc) also gets real -- about being a woman, marriage, acting, social media and politics. It's entertaining, surprising, anything but boring. Enjoy!

Kathleen Rose Perkins on Episodes, Hollywood, life Aug 20, 2017

Show notes

Actor Kathleen Rose Perkins (Episodes, Rules of Engagement, Grey's Anatomy) puts it all out there, warts and all. And that's a good thing! Unlike some celebs, she isn't hung up on being perfect. Kathleen has had major setbacks and isn't afraid to talk about them. But she's an entertainer, so as she talks about religion, anxiety, abortion and getting fired, you'll likely smile, laugh and know you're in good company.

Annette O'Toole Aug 08, 2017

Show notes

Film, TV & stage actress Annette O'Toole doesn't do many interviews, so this in-depth conversation with Kara Mayer Robinson for the Really Famous podcast is a rare treat. She talks about her new film, Women Who Kill, her long Hollywood career, her marriage to actor Michael McKean, why she loves theater, why people who love Smallville and Superman still approach her--and why she loves Trader Joes.

Amy Hargreaves on 13 Reasons Why, Homeland, fame Jul 26, 2017

Show notes

Homeland & 13 Reasons Why actress Amy Hargreaves has opinions about the 'glamorizing suicide' controversy surrounding her mega-hit Netflix show AND what's up with Carrie Mathison and her babe Franny. She shares her thoughts with Kara as they break down both shows and chat about a bounty of things you never knew about Amy -- like why she sometimes ducks into a closet, why you know her voice but aren't sure why, and why she was called into her kids' principal's office. You'll see she's not your typical girl-next-door. The New York native, dual citizen (France & US) and political enthusiast has a wild streak. And after decades acting in oodles of films and TV shows, she's waving her wild flag by dipping her toe into riskier roles. Why? Listen in.
