A Note From The Host: I’ve been keeping an eye on Beanie Feldstein and how she’s been steering her career since Lady Bird. Now, in her early 30’s, when I discovered she was to be one of the latest guest stars on season five of Hulu hit, Only Murders in the Building, I knew it would be great. The television and Golden-Globe nominated actor is also known for her work on Broadway and her singing chops, and I loved hearing her ardently and assertively align herself with her musical side (and how dance has chased her all her life), hear about just how long she’s been singing (since a small child), and how a grave problem with her once-gravely voice actually left her speechless---then, propelled her to patiently pursue the passion and skill of hers. On the podcast, Beanie is so passionate about the love she has found and also candid about who she was before. One of the most interesting and delightful things about the conversation you’re about to listen to, is Beanie on how much she loves people, and that it is central to her creative process. Most known for playing a best friend, how uncanny (or perhaps not at all) when you hear where, and how, and why--- friends and the importance of friendship have occupied her life. Beanie really knows who she is, and its almost thrilling to hear her how she does it. We discuss so much about fashion, a lot about family, working with one brother, and losing  another. We talk in great detail, about the many inspiring actors and artists she’s gotten to collaborate with. Her future projects are superstars themselves, and there’s a charity that many of you might choose to donate to after giving this talk a listen.
