In our season finale, the importance of reinvention is never clearer than in the stories from playwright Gordon Farrell's career, where he had to keep coming back to what drew him to writing in the first place in order to continue moving forward. Gordon Farrell's play, "The Lifespan Of A Fact," starring Daniel Radcliffe, Tony-Award winner Cherry Jones, and Emmy Award winner Bobby Cannavale performed on Broadway from 2018 to 2019. It was co-written with Jeremy Kareken & David Murrell, directed by Leigh Silverman, and produced by eight-time Tony Award winner Jeffrey Richards. Gordon was trained as a playwright at the Yale School of Drama and went from there to work with major Hollywood studios, initially as a story analyst for Warner Brothers and Columbia Pictures, and eventually as a screenwriter. He has written for hire and sold screenplays to Universal Pictures, Warner Brothers, MGM and ITC. He has worked with Robert Simonds (producer of Big Daddy, The Wedding Singer); Neil Moritz (producer of XXX, I Know What You Did Last Summer, Fast and Furious) and Bruce Berman (producer of Matrix, Three Kings, Mad Max: Fury Road). Working in independent film, Gordon has written for and sold projects to NYC indie producer Norman Twain (producer of Lean on Me, Boycott, Scar, My Dog Tulip). Gordon's first independent screenplay, Girls Who Smoke, premiered in 2011. It went to be an official selection at over a dozen film festivals, ultimately winning the Audience Choice Award in Seattle at the Post Alley Film Festival. As a playwright, Gordon developed a trilogy of monologue plays for women, The Red Anthology, on New York's Lower East Side from 2009 to 2014. He developed it into an immersive walk through theater experience which ran Off-Broadway in 2024. His plays have also been produced in San Francisco, at the Alleyway Theatre in Buffalo, at the Yale School of Drama in New Haven, and at Primary Stages in New York. He authored the book for a series of award-winning musicals based on the life and death of Sherlock Holmes, which ran for three seasons in Buffalo, NY. He is the author of The Power of the Playwright's Vision, published by Heinemann Press in 2001 which has been translated internationally and is now a standard playwriting text on four continents.

Shortcuts are an illusion and if you want your passion to lead to success, you need to put in the work. But, actor David Dastmalchain notes, more than that you need to fully realize what it is you're trying to achieve if you want others to follow you on the quest to make that idea a reality. Actor, writer, and producer David Dastmalchian has had supporting roles in a number of superhero franchises: he portrayed Thomas Schiff in The Dark Knight (2008), Kurt and Veb in the Ant-Man franchise, Abra Kadabra in the CW's The Flash, and Polka-Dot Man in The Suicide Squad (2021). Dastmalchian has appeared in David Lynch's Twin Peaks: The Return, as well as three films directed by Denis Villeneuve: Prisoners (2013), Blade Runner 2049 (2017), and Dune (2021). Although he is best known for his work as a character actor, Dastmalchian had leading roles in the 2014 semi-autobiographical film Animals, which he wrote, and the 2023 horror film Late Night with the Devil, which he produced. He is also set to portray Mr. 3 in the Netflix series One Piece. His roots in theater and on-screen performances have informed his narrative style, giving his characters depth and a compelling sense of reality. Dastmalchian's exceptional ability to create complex, relatable characters has made him a force to be reckoned with in the comic industry. He is best known for his work on "Count Crowley: Reluctant Midnight Monster Hunter," a series praised for its rich storytelling, unique characters, and blend of horror and dark humor elements. His unique approach to genre storytelling earned him a devoted fan base and critical acclaim.

The interactions fans have with Phil is like groupies of a rock band, except its men, women, kids, grandparents, and everyone alike, all approaching Phil about their experiences with travel and food. Following a resounding call from fans, he created a companion book, Somebody Feed Phil The Book, which was released in October 2022. He followed this up with a new children's book he created with his daughter, Lily, called: JUST TRY IT: A Phil and Lil Book, a hilarious picture book geared towards young children about a food-loving dad encouraging his picky eater daughter to just try something new which released March 2024. Both books immediately hit the New York Times Best Seller list. Phil is also currently wrapping up his second 25-city tour, with upcoming shows across California and Arizona.

"Poor Things" (1:32), the heavily anticipated film from Yorgos Lanthimos starring Emma Stone has finally hit theaters. We've also been watching other things (19:30) and spend some time to catch up, including: Scott Pilgrim Takes Off, Leave the World Behind, May December, Project Greenlight, When Evil Lurks, I'm a Virgo, Fionna & Cake, and Young Love. Also the nominations for the 2024 Golden Globes (57:53) have been released and feel a little different this time around so we had to take the time to acknowledge them and give some early predictions. The 2023 Game Awards (1:36:03) also happened this past weekend and we take the time to discuss some of the highlights from the show. (Song: Jesus Is The One (I Got Depression) x Zack Fox)

Yes, the writers' and actors' strikes mean a lot of reality on TV and delayed releases for movies this fall. But there are some standouts. Sam talks with Vulture's Jen Chaney and Chris Lee and learns that with shows like Lessons In Chemistry, starring Brie Larson, and films like May December, starring Julianne Moore and Natalie Portman, you could want for nothing. Sam also gets recommendations of things you might have missed this summer from Sam Fragoso, host of the Talk Easy podcast, who explains that Project Greenlight reveals all the problems with Hollywood right now and is worth a hate-watch. To hear Sam Fragoso interview Sam Sanders, check out Talk Easy with Sam Fragoso this Sunday, September 3rd. And ICYMI, Sam Sanders is guest hosting Vox's daily news show Today, Explained this week.

Stephanie Green is back to talk about a too-long, badly structured true-crime series from AppleTV+, and the many opportunities Wanted: The Escape Of Carlos Ghosn wastes to tell a good story. Sarah thought it had nonfiction The Morning Show vibes, a characterization Tara resented; listen to our correct-length, non-backloaded conversation and see if you agree! We went Around The Dial with The Ultimatum, Sister Wives, 90 Day UK, and Project Greenlight, and Tara was NOT a crackpot about DIY haircuts on Ahsoka. Listener Jeff begged us to Please Like Me -- well, a third-season episode, anyway -- in this week's Canon segment, and then Adriana La Cerva won and Doogie Kamealoha lost before we all walked down the aisle for Game Time.
