After that unhinged Wicker trailer sent the whole internet into a spin, we're deep diving the fictional characters we were never supposed to find attractive… and yet. We're talking a gruff saber-tooth tiger with a heart of gold, the Marvel villain whose fan fiction was so unhinged it earned him a spinoff, and the wettest of wet-blanket sitcom romantics who somehow ages into a green flag. Plus the Twilight nobody we should've been rooting for the whole time, a brooding Finding Nemo fish the internet has turned into a full-blown daddy, and the Bear character with the most beautiful arc on TV.

What happens when the dream you've chased your whole life finally comes true... and you realize you've lost yourself along the way? Actress and director Jennifer Morrison (House, Once Upon a Time, How I Met Your Mother, This Is Us, Yellowjackets, The Night Agent, The Five-Star Weekend) joins Danielle for a conversation about craft, ambition, creativity, and the hidden cost of success. After decades in front of the camera, and now directing some of television's biggest series, Jennifer shares the mindset that transformed not only her career, but her life. In this episode, Jennifer shares: Why success can quietly pull you away from yourself—and how she found her way back What directing The Five-Star Weekend taught her about grief, friendship, and showing up for the people you love Why meaningful friendships require intention—not just good intentions Why actors should think like emotional athletes, and how criticism became coaching Her directing philosophy: why preparation creates creative freedom and how to make audiences feel what characters are experiencing How becoming a director made her a better actor Behind the scenes of directing Yellowjackets, The Night Agent, and Peacock's The Five-Star Weekend Her thoughts on the future of Hollywood, creator-led storytelling, and why the breakout film Obsession signals a shift in the industry Why actresses like Jennifer Morrison, Greta Gerwig, and Regina King stepped behind the camera How growing up in Chicago and Midwest values shaped her career Her unique creative process for building unforgettable characters Why women don't have to be just one thing: identity, authenticity, and embracing every version of yourself The Artist's Way, motherhood, creative reinvention, and the unexpected cost of achieving your biggest dream Lessons from House, curiosity, and the audition that almost never happened Book Recommendation: East of Eden Follow Jennifer Morrison on Instagram Check out Jennifer's newest directorial project, The Five-Star Weekend on Peacock, starring Jennifer Garner, Regina Hall, Gemma Chan, D'Arcy Carden, Chloë Sevigny, and Timothy Olyphant.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Today, Fr. Richard Rohr unpacks the Enneagram Type Three, which is often referred to as “the achiever.” We live, as Fr. Richard puts it, in “a Type Three culture” — a culture obsessed with image, achievement, and approval. Threes often learn as children that love is earned through performance rather than given freely. Over time, this can lead to an over-identification with the presentable self, at the expense of deeper authenticity. Today we're also joined by actor, director, and musician Josh Radnor, who is best known for starring on the sitcom How I Met Your Mother. Josh discusses the multi-faceted nature of professional success and the complexity of finally reaching the "top of the ladder" — only to find it leaning against the wrong wall. Today's episode poses a moving question for us all: Can we be loved for who we are, not what we accomplish? Find the transcript for today's episode here. Sign Up for The Enneagram Email Series Deepen your journey with the Enneagram. Sign up for monthly reflections, practices, and resources that connect contemplative wisdom with your daily life: https://cac.org/belongs2026/ Take a Deeper Dive into Type Three Threes are at the center of the heart triad. They are driven by how they are perceived as well as a need to succeed — and to an outsider looking on, they often do appear very successful. However, their success is often driven by their core wounds. “Through my competence and overproduction, can I prove my worth?” is a central question for Enneagram Threes. Authentic and redeemed Threes can spread truth and grace in a way that is professional and efficient. Their wound can become their gift.

Tim spent the afternoon at the Hayden Orpheum watching the Billie Eilish documentary in 3D with his daughter and came in genuinely moved. Watching his daughter watch Billie on screen the same way he watched her watch the live show last year confirmed everything: Billie Eilish is exactly the kind of role model you want for your kid. No pressure to look a certain way, no performance of sexiness, just an unapologetic songwriter who wants to be the artist she'd want to be a fan of. Listeners call in with their own role model stories and one mum of a 14 year old has to break the news that her son's idol is Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother. We wish her well.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

"I should start a podcast" is the 2026 version of the How I Met Your Mother "we should buy a bar" running joke — it sounds easy until you actually try to ship a show every week. That's why solo podcasters need a good system that works for you So instead of just handing you a system that. you may or may not use, in this episode I walk through the ten questions you need to answer before episode ten — how you capture ideas, outline, record, store files, edit, track status, upload, write copy, stay ahead of the calendar, and promote — and share what I do on each one so you can borrow what fits. Answer these once and you'll have a setup that survives a sick week, a vacation, or a slow idea day.Show Notes3 Reasons Your Podcast Planner Is Your Most Important Podcast SystemRSS.comstreamlinedfeedback.com
Episode 199: Carter Bays and Craig Thomas Interview Part Two This is the After Show for Gimme Five, featuring part two of Andrew's conversation with Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, creators of How I Met Your Mother. The discussion digs into the real-life inspiration behind Gimme Five, a project shaped as much by nostalgia as it is by firsthand experience. Carter and Craig reflect on the writers' rooms that shaped the pilot, and the kind of shared comedy culture that gets handed down over time, something that now feels increasingly rare. The conversation is loose, funny, and occasionally thoughtful, touching on collaboration, process, and what makes a great room work.

Aperol Spritz copped it earlier this week and the audience agreed overwhelmingly. Now we go wider: Australia has voted AFL the most overrated sport, which Tim, a Hawthorn supporter who watched them draw with Collingwood in the most nail-biting finish last night, is taking as a personal attack. Most overrated TV shows: Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother, unpopular opinion delivered with full confidence. Most overrated Sydney thing: the beaches, according to a Gold Coast native who we will not be taking seriously. And a listener nominated croissants as the Aperol Spritz of food, which is brave and wrong but we respect the commitment.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Episode 198: Gimme Five by Carter Bays and Craig Thomas This month's second dead pilot from Carter Bays and Craig Thomas is Gimme Five. Best known as the co-creators and longtime showrunners of How I Met Your Mother, Carter and Craig previously wrote for The Late Show with David Letterman and produced American Dad. They co-wrote this pilot with legendary writer Peter Tolan, whose credits include The Larry Sanders Show, Rescue Me, Analyze This, Analyze That, and many more. Here's the log line. It's 1985, and Gimme Five is the number two family sitcom in America. But behind the scenes of this feel-good show is a dysfunctional workplace family on the verge of self-destruction. Showrunner Cliff McConnell must somehow keep it together and keep being funny in the midst of his newborn son's health crisis. Sharp, outrageous, and wildly funny, Gimme Five gives a behind-the-scenes look at comedy writing that feels both absurd and strangely authentic. It may also be one of the funniest pilots ever featured on the podcast. Major content Warning, definitely think twice about listening to this one with small children in the room. You may hear something that offends you early on in this pilot, but please stick with it. Stay tuned for part two of Andrew's Interview with Carter and Craig, in your feed April 30th. Our cast for the show includes Taran Killam (SNL, High Potential, Stumble), Chris Diamantopoulos (Beavis and Butthead, Silicon Valley), Scott Foley (Scandal, Scream 7), Dallas Goldtooth (Reservation Dogs), Tami Sagher (Inside Amy Schumer), Chris DiStefano (stand up), James Urbaniak (Venture Brothers), Isabella Gomez (One Day at a Time, Shrinking), Cyrina Fiallo (High Potential, 911 Lonestar), Alyssa Limperis (What We Do In the Shadows), Burl Moseley (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) Dead Pilots Society is supported by MaxFun members contributing $5 a month or more, and this is the time of year to say thanks and invite new listeners to join.

This story is one from our archives, by Paul La Farge. Pay attention because the author delivers lots of little hints about what is happening behind the scenes—to the protagonist, and the peripheral characters, too. But it isn't clear until the very last moments of the story exactly what kind of a story we've been listening to. La Farge is the author of novels including Luminous Airplanes and The Night Ocean. He unfortunately died in 2023 when he was still in his early 50s; and while we never had the chance to host him on the show, he had a lot of friends in the literary world. Reading the story is actor and musician Josh Radnor. Radnor is best known for the series How I Met Your Mother, but he's always busy; recent credits include Fleishman Is in Trouble and Hunters. Aparna Nancherla hosts this episode. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.

Actress Sarah Chalke joins Sam and they revel in having both been married to Jason Jones—Sam in real life and Sarah on How I Met Your Mother (which people still yell at her in airports for). They have a quintessentially Canadian interview swapping stories of current border angst, going to the US just to go to Trader Joes, playing in a mom’s hockey league and why there isn’t actually enough hockey in Heated Rivalry for real Canadians. They talk about how decision making is not her strong suit even though she’s picked great shows throughout her career and how she’s moving away from pro/con lists. Sarah talks about the no-brainer decision to come back for the Scrubs revival which was her favorite show of her life, and how she learned everything about comedy from Bill Lawrence.
