Joe Lo Truglio joins The A Game Podcast with Nick Lamagna for a powerful conversation about success, patience, persistence, creativity, rejection, collaboration and what it really takes to build a career that lasts. Joe is an actor, writer, producer and director best known for playing Charles Boyle on Brooklyn Nine-Nine, as well as unforgettable roles in Superbad, Paul, Reno 911!, The State, Wet Hot American Summer, Role Models, Wanderlust, I Love You, Man, Pitch Perfect and many more. He is also featured in the new comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, directed by David Wain and written by David Wain and Ken Marino. This special throwback episode is being re-released to celebrate Joe and the longtime creative team behind The State continuing to work together decades later. One of the biggest themes in this conversation is something almost every entrepreneur, investor, creator or ambitious person struggles with: What happens when success takes longer than you expected? Joe talks openly about the moments when he questioned whether he should continue acting at all, considered completely different careers, and wondered whether the business was still worth it. His answer wasn't some magical motivation hack. It was realizing that if you truly love the work, you have to give yourself enough time to become who you are capable of becoming. Joe also explains why impatience can convince you that you are on the wrong path when you may simply be too early. He discusses learning to trust his own timeline, continue taking action through disappointment, and remember that neither failure nor success lasts forever. In this episode, Joe and Nick talk about: Why most people underestimate how long meaningful success can take The difference between persistence and continuing down a path you no longer love How Joe handled years of rejection and uncertainty in Hollywood Why you need to give yourself enough time to discover what makes you different The importance of recognizing small victories instead of dismissing them Why surrounding yourself with people who are better than you raises your own level How collaboration helped shape The State, Reno 911! and Brooklyn Nine-Nine Why ego can destroy creative teams How to use jealousy and comparison as fuel instead of allowing them to become resentment Why social media is a terrible place to look for validation How Joe learned to trust criticism from people he respects instead of strangers online Why there really is "enough for everybody" The exact moment Joe finally felt like he had made it in Hollywood How becoming a husband and father changed his definition of success Why the best projects often come from working with people you genuinely like The importance of staying creative and continuing to make things even during difficult periods Joe also shares one of the most valuable lessons from his decades-long career: surround yourself with people who are better than you and be willing to learn from them instead of feeling threatened by them. He credits collaboration and removing ego from the process as major reasons some of his most rewarding projects worked so well. And for anyone who feels behind, Joe has a simple message for his younger self: chill out, trust that your time will come, and don't ignore the small victories you already have.

Kerri Kenney-Silver is back on The A Game Podcast in this special throwback episode celebrating the release of Gail Daughtry & the Celebrity Sex Pass, the new comedy from David Wain and Ken Marino, now available digitally. The film stars Zoey Deutch, Jon Hamm, John Slattery, Ken Marino, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Ben Wang, Joe Lo Truglio and Sabrina Impacciatore. Kerri is one of the original members of MTV's The State and has built an incredible career across comedy, television, film and music, with credits including Reno 911!, The State, Viva Variety, Role Models, Wanderlust, Wet Hot American Summer, Party Down, Miracle Workers and much more. In this conversation, she is funny, vulnerable, thoughtful and incredibly relatable about what it actually feels like to build a career in an industry filled with rejection, uncertainty and constant pressure. We talk about anxiety, self-doubt and the stories we create in our own heads when things feel uncertain. Kerri shares one of the best mental resets in the episode: recognizing when you are "making a movie in your head" about everything that could go wrong, instead of dealing with what is actually happening in front of you. We also get into: Why gratitude became an important reset button for Kerri How she handles rejection and uncertainty in entertainment Why successful people still struggle with fear and self-doubt The importance of focusing on what is directly in front of you Why she does not look at other women as competition How finding "your people" can completely change your life The incredible bond between the members of The State Why she still does not feel like she has "made it" Why fear can actually become fuel The creation and return of Reno 911! What she learned from her father, legendary voice actor Larry Kenney Growing up around comedy, character voices and entertainment Her music career with Cakelike UFC, Dana White and sitting ringside while eight months pregnant Why doing what you love matters more than reaching some imaginary finish line One of the strongest lessons from Kerri is that success does not necessarily eliminate insecurity. Sometimes the people who keep evolving are the ones who learn how to manage that fear without allowing it to control them. And make sure you support Kerri and the entire crew behind Gail Daughtry & the Celebrity Sex Pass. The movie follows small-town hairdresser Gail Daughtry on an increasingly ridiculous Hollywood adventure after she decides to pursue her own "celebrity pass." It was directed by David Wain and written by Wain and Ken Marino.

The movie is now available digitally. Ken is one of the original members of MTV's The State and has built one of the most recognizable careers in comedy through projects including Wet Hot American Summer, Role Models, Wanderlust, Party Down, Children's Hospital, Burning Love, and many more. In this episode, Ken talks about what it really takes to build a career that lasts for decades, why grit matters more than most people realize, and why surrounding yourself with the right people can completely change your trajectory. We also get into: How Ken discovered acting at a young age and why he never had a Plan B The origin of The State and how 11 very different personalities learned to work together The hilarious story behind the legendary Louie sketch Why rejection never stopped him from continuing to pursue acting The work ethic he learned from his father growing up on Long Island Why successful people still feel like they have to earn it all over again The difference between loving the work and chasing the reward Why having friends and peers who are pursuing similar goals can dramatically accelerate your success Working with legends including Henry Winkler, Alan Alda, Tony Shalhoub and Don Cheadle The unexpected life lesson Steven Tyler taught him about flossing Why Ken believes grit is one of the biggest predictors of long-term success His advice for anyone trying to build a lasting career in a competitive industry Ken also talks about the importance of surrounding yourself with people who are passionate, driven and creative — something he credits heavily for the success and longevity of The State.

Welcome to Whiskey Ginger a Wave series presented by Fanduel. Andrew Santino sits down with actor, comedian, writer, and director Ken Marino for a hilarious conversation about decades in comedy, improvisation, Hollywood, friendship, and somehow still finding new ways to make each other laugh. From *The State* and *Wet Hot American Summer* to writing, directing, and acting across film and television, Ken has spent years building one of comedy's most beloved careers. The two dive into sketch comedy, making cult classics, life behind the camera, ridiculous auditions, and why the funniest ideas usually start as the dumbest ones. It's the kind of conversation only two comedy lifers can have equal parts absurd, insightful, and completely off the rails. Be sure to check out Ken's latest film, *Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass*, which he co-wrote with David Wain and also stars in.

Moviewallas: Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass & Tony This week on Moviewallas, Joe, Rashmi, and Yazdi review two very different films. First up is Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, a wildly absurd comedy packed with rapid-fire jokes, celebrity cameos, fourth-wall breaks, and a surprising amount of sweetness. Then the team turns to Tony, Matt Johnson's moving portrait of the formative summer that set a young Anthony Bourdain on the path toward kitchens, writing, and the life that would eventually make him famous. Before the reviews, the hosts return to “I Can't Find Anything to Watch…” with three streaming recommendations: the heartfelt science-fiction adventure The Adam Project, the brutal medieval thriller Pilgrimage, and Ridley Scott's inventive historical drama The Last Duel. Streaming Picks The Adam Project – Netflix Rashmi recommends this warm and unexpectedly emotional science-fiction adventure starring Ryan Reynolds. Beneath the time-travel premise is a sweet story about family, regret, and second chances. Pilgrimage – Hulu Yazdi revisits this beautifully shot medieval action drama starring Tom Holland and Jon Bernthal. A novice monk and a mysterious former crusader must transport a sacred relic through dangerous territory. The Last Duel – Hulu Joe recommends Ridley Scott's powerful historical drama starring Matt Damon, Adam Driver, Jodie Comer, and Ben Affleck. Its ingenious structure allows the same events to unfold through several competing perspectives. t Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass When her fiancé acts on their celebrity-pass agreement, Midwest bride Gail Daughtry heads to Hollywood in search of a celebrity encounter of her own. Directed by David Wain and starring Zoey Deutch, the film assembles a huge comic cast that includes Jon Hamm, John Slattery, Ken Marino, Sabrina Impacciatore, Miles Gutierrez-Riley, Ben Wang, and many more. The hosts discuss the film's relentless stream of jokes, its Wizard of Oz influences, its affectionate use of Hollywood caricatures, and the willingness of its celebrity cameos to completely make fools of themselves. It is ridiculous, exhausting, incredibly sweet, and, most importantly, genuinely funny. Tony Director Matt Johnson, whose previous film was BlackBerry, turns his attention to the early life of Anthony Bourdain. The film follows 19-year-old Bourdain as he arrives in Provincetown and stumbles into the chaotic world of restaurant kitchens. Rather than attempting to cover his entire life, Tony concentrates on one formative summer and the people who helped point him toward the career that would eventually define him. The team praises Dominic Sessa for capturing Bourdain's charm, arrogance, intelligence, and complexity without turning him into a saint. They also discuss the outstanding performances from Antonio Banderas, Leo Woodall, and Emilia Jones, the convincing recreation of the 1970s restaurant world, and the film's refusal to romanticize the brutal reality of kitchen work. Funny, moving, authentic, and made with enormous affection for Bourdain, this is a biopic that understands the value of focusing on the thing that led to the thing.

This week Dave was happy to see GAIL DAUGHTRY AND THE CELEBRITY SEX PASS (1:34) - Evan less so - a comedy by director David Wain with a screenplay by Wain and Ken Marino, members of the 1990s sketch comedy group "The State." Eight members of "The State" appear, including Marino, and there are a billion celebrity cameos as Kansas hairdresser Gail Daughtry (Zoey Deutch) and her friend Otto run around L.A. trying to find Jon Hamm so she can fuck him (because her fiancé used his celebrity sex pass to bone Jennifer Aniston after a book reading in their town). Yes, it's as absolutely bonkers as it sounds. And if you're not into anti-humor, senseless violence, and intentionally unfunny jokes played completely straight, this may not be the movie for you. But it was for Dave! Over on Patreon, we talk about the 1981 slasher THE BURNING.

Ken Marino is very funny. All the time. Maybe even "too funny." Starting with the legendary comedy group "The State," more than three decades ago, Marino has been the go-to comedy gold in countless television shows, stealing so many scenes in movies, always bringing the funny. The films he's co-written with David Wain are some of his highlights — "The Ten," "Role Models," "Wanderlust," and now "Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass" (which comes out July 10th). On this episode, Marino ponders the origins of his brand of comedy (or if he even has one), explains why he doesn't like humor that punches down, makes a case for why he thinks he has "a good grasp on 'asshole,'" talks about what has brought him to a place where he makes bold choices right off the bat, lays out how it all comes down to "specifics," and much much more. Back To One is the in-depth, no-nonsense, actors-on-acting podcast. In each episode, host Peter Rinaldi invites one working actor to do a deep dive into their unique process, psychology, and approach to the craft.

The lines between Kestrin Pantera’s real life and the life of her character Kat Ben Atar in Backseat Drivers have become quite blurred. Both Kestrin and Kat are cello-playing moms with rockstar last names who have strong feelings about the high expectations teachers set for the science fair projects at their daughters’ fancy new schools. And both find themselves regularly interacting with Weird Al Yankovic, David Wain, Jackie Tohn and Tia Carrere in this new life they’ve built for themselves. This is, of course, no coincidence. As the writer and director of Backseat Drivers, Pantera has decided to incorporate her
