Podcast appearances and mentions of Will Ferrell

Not many actors can be nice, warm, and funny at the same time. Mary Steenburgen has basically made a career out of it. The Arkansas-born actress made her film debut in the late seventies on a film called Goin' South. For that performance, Steenburgen earned a Golden Globe nomination, and she's only gotten better since. She has some great performances under her belt. She played Will Ferrell's mom in Step Brothers. She played Will Ferrell's step-mom in Elf. Melvin and Howard. Back to the Future Part III. 30 Rock. Oh, and she's even played herself on the sitcom Curb Your Enthusiasm. So, it's safe to say that Mary Steenburgen is a legend. And in her latest movie, she's teaming up with three other legends: Candice Bergen, Jane Fonda, and Diane Keaton. This week on Bullseye, Mary Steenburgen stops by to talk about her role in Book Club: The Next Chapter. She gets into her friendship with Jane Fonda. Plus, she reminisces on the first time she met her husband, Ted Danson.

James Marsden (Jury Duty, X-Men) and Justin talk about what it was like for James to play an egotistical version of himself in the show “Jury Duty,” how difficult it was to keep up the facade through the whole season, plus they discuss their shared love of improv and what it was like to be on the Anchorman set acting opposite Will Ferrell.

"Play Ja Ja Ding Dong!"Ok, ok...But also, to celebrate the Eurovision Song Contest being held here in the UK, and in support of Ukraine, the history and legacy of not only the contest itself, but also Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga. Will Ferrell first saw the contest in 1999, and became a huge fan. It would take him over 20 years to bring a movie to the big screen, and it would be a movie endorsed by the European Broadcast Union. It had to balance a fine line between being an introduction to the competition for people who new nothing about the kitsch, campy song contest, and a love letter to its fans and participants. No-one expected it to become Oscar-nominated, though... I would love to hear your thoughts on Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga !CONTACT....

I often joke on the show that a lot of people my age have the "these kids today..." mentality.  But like a lot of humor there is a strong undercurrent of truth, and so my hope has always been that leaders will eventually see that this mentality is not just foolish, but also pretty dang silly.  And to further complicate things, as my guest today points out, adults aren't totally wrong that this generation seems to be less motivated and less resilient than those that came before them.  The problem: it's our fault.Too often as leaders and, for lack of a better term, "grown-up's,” we are very good at pointing out the problems and very bad at remedying them. Sarah Hernholm  is a former elementary school teacher turned entrepreneur. In 2009, she left the classroom to create WIT - Whatever It Takes - an organization that works with teens and tweens around the world who are interested in using their voice and ideas to launch businesses, non-profits, and/or social movements, all while helping them to develop emotional intelligence, soft skills, and an entrepreneurial mindsetA three-time TEDx Speaker (1) (2) (3), Sarah also writes for FORBES and TODAY Show Parent, hosts the DO WIT podcast, and is currently writing her book “11 Tips for Doing WIT.”We discuss why kids actually DO love working, why adults too often play the victim in situations they create, and the power of commas over periods.  Oh, and Will Ferrell... Enjoy the show!

Life can often be so predictable. Each day I wake up, have coffee, get my kids to school, and go to work. But sometimes there are days when things happen that are completely unexpected. That sums up my experience interviewing today's podcast guest Brian Burns, and I could not be more grateful for it.Brian Burns is the award-winning writer and Executive Producer of the hit television series Blue Bloods on CBS, HBO's Entourage, and Will Ferrell's hit comedy film, Daddy's Home.Brian has served as Executive Producer of Blue Bloods for nearly 300 episodes over a record 13 seasons, & has personally written over 50 episodes of the long-running hit police procedural.Prior to Blue Bloods, Burns wrote and produced many seasons of Entourage on HBO, where he was nominated multiple times for an Emmy and Writer's Guild Award.Based on his experience as a new stepfather, Burns wrote Daddy's Home for WillFerrell and Adam McKay, which went on to be one of Ferrell's most successful box office hits.So I predicted we would mostly talk about writing and producing TV and movies, which we did. I also figured we would spend a little bit of time discussing his incredibly tight-knit family, which consists of other career heavy-hitters like his father, Edward J Burns, an NYPD police sergeant and former Spokesman for the NYPD, and his brother Ed Burns, the well-known actor and director with whom he created the ABC sitcom That's Life and the NBC sitcom The Fighting Fitzgerald's starring Brian Dennehy and Connie Britton.But our conversation held SO much more than just Hollywood and his incredible and successful creative endeavors.In a beautifully unplanned and organic way, our conversation traveled far and wide, as all the best ones do. We discussed the death of his mentor and dear friend Rocco, his mother's passing during the pandemic, and his journey to sobriety that helped him become a better father, writer, and human being.Brian shares intimate stories about facing the fears that were holding him backfrom living an honest and (sometimes) HARD life. But it was those “hards” in life that forced him to have intimate yet difficult conversations with his loved ones, led him to start training and running marathons, and finally allowed him to get to the truth about his relationship with alcohol.This episode is the longest interview I have released yet, and it's worth every single moment. Join us for this captivating and deeply authentic conversation filled with unexpected turns and immense hope. Our talk left me with an enormous amount of faith in the goodness of people.We are all striving to be healthier in our bodies, minds, and spirits. And regardless of how well-known our work is, or how successful we may be in the world, we all struggle sometimes in life as we try to find ways to connect more deeply to ourselves in order to strengthen our connections to our loved ones.May this conversation strengthen your own connections and give you hope for what's possible.Love,MollyConnect with Brian on Instagram, Twitter, and FacebookResources mentioned in this interview:Book: This Naked Mind: Control Alcohol, Find Freedom, Discover Happiness & Change Your Lifeby Annie GraceBook: The Honey Badgerby Robert Ruark 

What an honor to talk to rock royalty. Ian Anderson is on Talkin' Rock to discuss the latest album and more around his life and Jethro Tull. The latest album is called RökFlöte and is out now. That bring said, Ian talked about an idea he got in early 2023 for the next album already. "My resolve is to work during this year  to get that ready for rehearsal and recording in January and February of next year." He talked about touring and making up dates after the pandemic. "I tried not to think about it too much." as far as if he missed playing live and touring during the lockdowns. We got into some spiritual talk. He told me about studying religions and attending different masses.  "I rather like the unknowable." he said about what lies beyond here. I asked him about the term "prog rock". He said he liked the term progressive rock more. He dove into that much more. What about that scene in Anchorman, where Will Ferrell was playing the flute in the club? He brought up that he thought Fox anchorman Tony Snow had more to do with that scene than he did. Lastly, I asked him where his Metal Grammy is....that's a fun story. Enjoy the conversation. -Meltdown- https://wrif.com/2023/05/03/new-music-religion-anchorman-his-metal-grammy-and-more-with-jethro-tulls-ian-anderson/ https://wrif.com/podcasts/talkin-rock-with-meltdown/

For 48 years, the quick-witted comedians, writers, and actors of Saturday Night Live (SNL) have inspired both belly laughs and giddy tears. Whether broadcasting John Belushi's cartwheels, Will Ferrell's cowbell routine, or Tina Fey's biting commentary on Weekend Update, the long-running show has guided multiple generations through cultural changes with humor and professionalism. In today's auditorial episode, host and NOT REAL ART founder Scott “Sourdough” Power recounts a recent, once-in-a-lifetime experience: attending a taping of SNL at 30 Rockefeller Plaza. Scott shares his observations on the big night, reflecting on the collaborative spirit between cast and crew that contributes to the show's lasting impact. “I was so moved by the level of precision, commitment, and practice that was essential and necessary to create the best-in-class cultural, creative institution,” Scott says in the episode.An important part of SNL's unrivaled execution, according to Scott, is the artful leadership of producer Lorne Michaels. “One of the things I observed is [...] Lorne on the floor, quietly making his presence known, showing support, nudging and prodding where needed, but calm, cool, [and] collected,” Scott notes. He also touches on focus, discipline, passion, mutual respect, and gratitude, virtues that have sustained SNL's creative momentum through the decades: “You've got to be passionate in what you're doing because you can't be focused, disciplined, or have integrity without it.”Find out how you can apply the same virtues to your life and craft by tuning in to the episode on the player below. Though Scott praises the cast and crew at SNL, he also offers his listeners some practical tips based on his experience at Studio 8H: “If you want to compete at the highest levels in whatever art form or whatever business or organization you're in, you absolutely need to be disciplined.” Step up your creative game with Scott's thoughts on timing, professionalism, and commitment to excellence.In Today's Podcast EpisodeScott “Sourdough” Power discusses…SNL's lasting legacy as a creative institutionFormer and current SNL cast membersThe overall level of professionalism permeating everything at Studio 8HThe seamless transitions between scenes, despite little preparation timeThe incredible behind-the-scenes teamwork at SNLThe mutually respectful environment and gratitude he observedLorne Michaels' undeniable leadershipWhy great risk is required for great rewardHow to perform at a higher level of excellenceWhy it's important to celebrate accomplishmentsFor more information, please visit http://notrealart.com/saturday-night-live

An explosive inside look at The Dirty Dozen, the star-studded war film that broke the rules, shocked the critics, thrilled audiences, and became an all-time classic. The year was 1967. A cinematic blockbuster exploded across American popular culture. The Dirty Dozen didn't just reinvent the “men on a mission” war story, it blew the genre to pieces. Like its ragtag team of misfits, it defied authority, mocked the military, and still managed to deliver action, adventure, and no-holds-barred Nazi-killing. It also received four Oscar nominations, launched the careers of many Hollywood legends, and inspired generations of filmmakers like Sam Peckinpah, Quentin Tarantino, and James Gunn. Based on exclusive interviews with the surviving cast and crew, friends and families of the stars, and other Hollywood insiders, Killin' Generals: The Making of The Dirty Dozen, the Most Iconic WW II Movie of All Time (Citadel Press, 2023) is a riveting must-read for film buffs, military fans, and anyone who loves a down-and-dirty adventure tale. Detailed, insightful, and gossipy, Epstein's homage spotlights the movie's endless barrage of cinematic gold. During a time when America was reeling from turmoil, Hollywood held an indelible mirror up to a changing society. Films like Bonnie and Clyde, The Graduate, Cool Hand Luke, and In the Heat of the Night would define the era. But it was a gritty, violent, darkly comic World War II movie called The Dirty Dozen that would really strike a chord with audiences—and become the year's biggest box office success. Heading up the all-star cast were Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, John Cassavettes, Charles Bronson, Donald Sutherland, Jim Brown, Robert Ryan, Clint Walker, and at his most terrifying best, Telly Savalas, propelling many of them to stardom. Dwayne Epstein is the author of several young adult biographies, covering such celebrity personalities as Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, Hilary Swank, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Denzel Washington for Lucent Books' People in the News series. Epstein also contributed to Bill Krohn's bestselling books Hitchcock at Work and Joe Dante and the Gremlins of Hollywood. His biography Lee Marvin: Point Blank was a New York Times bestseller. Daniel Moran earned his B.A. and M.A. in English from Rutgers University and his Ph.D. in History from Drew University.

An explosive inside look at The Dirty Dozen, the star-studded war film that broke the rules, shocked the critics, thrilled audiences, and became an all-time classic. The year was 1967. A cinematic blockbuster exploded across American popular culture. The Dirty Dozen didn't just reinvent the “men on a mission” war story, it blew the genre to pieces. Like its ragtag team of misfits, it defied authority, mocked the military, and still managed to deliver action, adventure, and no-holds-barred Nazi-killing. It also received four Oscar nominations, launched the careers of many Hollywood legends, and inspired generations of filmmakers like Sam Peckinpah, Quentin Tarantino, and James Gunn. Based on exclusive interviews with the surviving cast and crew, friends and families of the stars, and other Hollywood insiders, Killin' Generals: The Making of The Dirty Dozen, the Most Iconic WW II Movie of All Time (Citadel Press, 2023) is a riveting must-read for film buffs, military fans, and anyone who loves a down-and-dirty adventure tale. Detailed, insightful, and gossipy, Epstein's homage spotlights the movie's endless barrage of cinematic gold. During a time when America was reeling from turmoil, Hollywood held an indelible mirror up to a changing society. Films like Bonnie and Clyde, The Graduate, Cool Hand Luke, and In the Heat of the Night would define the era. But it was a gritty, violent, darkly comic World War II movie called The Dirty Dozen that would really strike a chord with audiences—and become the year's biggest box office success. Heading up the all-star cast were Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, John Cassavettes, Charles Bronson, Donald Sutherland, Jim Brown, Robert Ryan, Clint Walker, and at his most terrifying best, Telly Savalas, propelling many of them to stardom. Dwayne Epstein is the author of several young adult biographies, covering such celebrity personalities as Adam Sandler, Will Ferrell, Hilary Swank, Nancy Pelosi, Hillary Clinton, and Denzel Washington for Lucent Books' People in the News series. Epstein also contributed to Bill Krohn's bestselling books Hitchcock at Work and Joe Dante and the Gremlins of Hollywood. His biography Lee Marvin: Point Blank was a New York Times bestseller.

Adam jokes about how he is bad at pronouncing Tom's last name (Howenstein), mentioning his four years of German classes in high school. Tom then joins the podcast and Adam jokes about a Will Ferrell and Christina Applegate skit from Anchorman where they keep going back and forth saying the same thing. Adam and Tom then proceed to talk about Tom's career change, which is to do something with Freedom Packaging. The conversation ends with both of them competing to say their sign-off first, Adam with Stay classy, San Diego and Tom with Take care of San Diego, but mostly stay classy. Tom had been with S One Labels and Packaging for 20 years before he moved to become President of Freedom Packaging. The move was prompted by the opportunity to move to a new company and challenge himself. S One had been an entrepreneurial company, allowing employees to come up with new ideas and then be responsible for executing them. Tom was responsible for starting the Labels and Packaging division, which had been under the LexJet Umbrella. Tom's move to Freedom Packaging was ultimately motivated by the chance to take on a new challenge and grow professionally. John was working for a company that supplied incadesion coating for Indigo presses, when he realized that the industry was different from the rest of the company. He decided to carve out a labels and packaging division in 2017, and ended up managing a team of 14 people in Europe, US, and Canada. His autonomy and empowerment from this opportunity was incredible. He was then approached by Freedom Packaging, whose president had recently resigned. TJ, who runs the rigid side of the business, needed someone knowledgeable for the role, and decided to fly John and his wife out to meet him. After getting to know each other, John decided to take on the role, feeling that he didn't want to have any regrets or what ifs. He was essentially giving up a child for adoption, but was confident in his decision. The speaker recently left a company called S One Labels and Packaging, which focused on digital printing for the Indigo space and other short run projects. The speaker has since joined Freedom Packaging, a converter that specializes in packaging for retail stores, club stores, and food service. They provide packaging for Walmart's Great Value brand, Amazon's 365 brand, Costco's Kirkland vegetables, BJ's Berkeley and Jensen brand, and Cisco or Foods for the prison system. This transition was difficult for the speaker as they had to leave behind their beloved team at S One, but three months in, the speaker is content with their choice as Freedom Packaging offers opportunities that S One does not.Timestamps0:00:00Interview with Tom Hauenstein of Freedom Packaging0:04:58Heading: Transitioning from S-One to Freedom Packaging: A Journey of Autonomy and Empowerment0:06:36Reflection on Transitioning from S One Labels and Packaging to Freedom Packaging0:08:04Conversation on Sustainable Packaging Solutions at Freedom Packaging0:09:47Heading: Benefits of Compostable Packaging in the Food Industry0:14:02Exploring Sustainable Packaging Solutions with Freedom Packaging0:17:37Heading: Exploring Alternatives to Polyester Packaging for a Circular Economy0:21:54Conversation on Early Social Media Platforms and Music Downloading0:23:50Interview with Tom from Freedom Packaging: Discussing Sustainable Packaging SolutionsHighlightsYou could do some pretty clever things with paper, which is compostable and recyclable, which I love, depending on the paper substrate and how it's made. But if you can take some water based products and create an oxygen barrier and a moisture barrier with a water based coating that's still composable and recyclable, and put a heat seal coating on the other side, now you're just taking a piece of paper and you're making it a functional package.. The downside that I'm seeing with paper is that to create paper so much energy, you basically buy pulp, and then you add a bunch of water to it, and then you spend a bunch of energy getting all the water back out that you just added into it in order to make paper. So what I'm seeing, especially in Europe, where their energy costs are just massive, and those are some of the biggest paper manufacturers are in Germany, right? Or Japan, where their energy costs are just going through the roof, they're like, can't do it. I mean, if you ask a major like Felix Schuler is a major paper manufacturer based in Germany, I asked them what their electric bill was per month.Yeah. Okay. So let me ask you a question, then, in terms of things that we've been asked at Myers that I'm starting to see brands become more and more aware of, which is extended producer responsibility, is that something that has made its way into the private label brand world where you're getting more requests for average weight of material and preparing to do reporting on their scope one scope, two scope, three emissions, all that kind of stuff. Has that made its way over to Freedom packaging yet? Or is it still sort of out in the future like, well, maybe, but not really.Was going to say. What's the substitute? You're right. I have five kids. I see our grocery bills. I'm like, oh, my gosh. And you're absolutely correct. There should probably be a rise in private label products, just given the fact they tend to carry a lower cost relative to their branded counterparts. So that's fascinating. I was going to ask you a question about oh, you had mentioned that so you have Freedom Packaging, and then you mentioned the other side of the business, but that's not the other side of Freedom Packaging.So if your package goes from forty five cents to one point fifty, you can absorb that if the contents are worth $50, if it's a 99 cent bag of free to lay chips, where are you going to bury that additional packaging cost? You have nowhere to hide it. Right, so that's kind of the issue there. But the interesting thing about food inflation, I don't love it. Nobody loves it, but it is a weird way that it's benefiting Freedom Packaging is that people are starting to look at house brands and stop buying the larger or the big brands because the house brands are cheaper.Yeah, I've had a couple of conversations with people about that, and it is sort of a chicken and egg thing, I guess. But at the end of the day, especially with current call it like current economic times, right, where there's economic uncertainty is probably the kindest way of putting it. Asking a brand that is already fighting inflationary pressures and labor shortages and all that, to then go spend four X more on packaging that may or may not end up actually getting composted because of the lack of industrial composting facilities in the US.

Today I'm joined by legendary character actor William Fichtner. I had him on the show to discuss his latest film 88. Having appeared in a wide range of films along with television and theater roles over the course of his career, William Fichtner continues to carve out a distinctive reputation as one of our most versatile and talented actors, whether in comedy or drama, action or character study.

He recurred on HBO's Entourage from 2009-2011 and played ‘FBI Agent Alexander Mahone' for three seasons on Fox's hit drama series, Prison Break.

It has been almost three years since we first sat down with What We Do in the Shadows' fan-favorite actor, singer, and voice-over artist Harvey Guillen. Challenging the norms of what made a star a star and what an action hero looked like, he became the media's darling as they were able to anchor headlines on Latinx, LGBTQ, and plus size descriptives. As each interview and new role would show, Harvey is much more than the labels assigned to him. Whereas most actors sit back and enjoy the success of being in a multiple Emmy-nominated TV show, Harvey's hustle has led to a number of notable TV appearances, action films, and voice-over projects. In the space of just a couple of years, Harvey has gone from being a fresh face in Hollywood to presenting at the Golden Globes alongside one of his co-stars, Salma Hayek, and dominating the red carpet at the Oscars. He is a verified quadruple threat – singer, actor, dancer… vampire slayer. This past season, the true picture of his success came into full view as passengers on the New York City subway were met not with one, but two, side to side, billboard ads for Harvey's work - Comedy Central's Cursed Friends and Dreamworks' Puss in Boots 2. Coming up, he becomes part of the DC Universe for Blue Beetle, the first feature superhero film with a Latinx flair! He will also be seen in the adult comedy, Strays, which also features Will Ferrell, Jamie Foxx, and Sofia Vergara. If that wasn't enough, he will also be taking part in the Kennedy Center's production of Spamalot with Michael Urie. What can't he do? With all of this success, he has remained humble and has become a veritable spokesperson for the LGBTQ and Latinx communities. I was miraculously able to snag some time with him in between his many projects and flights.In this catch-up episode, we talk about his upward trajectory, staying humble and connected to his roots, creating signature looks and promoting body positivity on the red carpet, overcoming Hollywood labels, not being pigeon-holed in roles, inclusion issues within the gay community, Guillermo's coming out on Shadows, making Latinx history in the DC Universe, booty pics, love and dating, and his biggest wish for the LGBTQ entertainment community….with host Alexander Rodriguez.Check out his issue of Metrosource in print or read the article on Metrosource.com

For a time in the 2000s, Ben Stiller dominated big-screen comedy. As a charter member of the "Frat Pack," along with people such as Owen Wilson, Vince Vaughn, and Will Ferrell, Stiller had an incredible string of blockbuster hits, including Zoolander, Starsky & Hutch, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story, Meet the Parents, and the Night at the Museum franchise. In recent years, Stiller's stepped away from comedy, moving behind the camera to helm acclaimed limited series such as Escape at Dannemora & Severance. In this episode of WTF Happened to this Celebrity, we take a look at his career, from his early days on The Ben Stiller Show, through his breakout in There's Something About Mary and beyond. 

Another Nanorama (episodes slightly shorter, but focusing on interesting titbits of information) on the history and legacy of The Lonely Island's debut and sophomoric cinematic comedies: Hot Rod and Popstar: Never Stop Never StoppingHot Rod was written originally for Will Ferrell before it ended up in development hell. The Lonely Island, then brand new on Saturday Night Live, were utilising the internet for comedy sketches way before it was cool, and SNL producer Lorne Michaels knew the trio would be perfect for Paramount's Hot Rod script. While Hot Rod wouldn't set the box office alight, it would become a huge hit on DVD, and a cult favourite, propelling The Lonely Island to the big leagues.Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping, unlike Hot Rod, was created, written, directed by and starring The Lonely Island, and drew inevitable comparisons with the king of the music mockumentary This is Spinal Tap. Chronicling the meteoric rise of Conner4Real, former lead singer of The Style Boyz, his fall from grace and ultimate redemption, it's a lovingly scathing parody of the music industry and like Hot Rod, struggled at the box office before finding an audience. It's a good job Conner is so humble... Time for the catchphrase verse! I would love to hear your thoughts on Hot Rod & Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping !CONTACT....

On Tue.'s No Dunks, the guys talk about the Cavs icing Grant Williams at the FT line, Scott Foster's poor officiating at the end of the Nuggets-Raptors, the Heat increasing their lead over the Hawks, Colorado police investigating Ja Morant's nightclub incident, the NBA rescinding Giannis' triple-double, LeBron tweeting about Bronny, and Will Ferrell's basketball skills. That, plus what's the greatest cookie ever? --

We taped this episode live at Hot Pod Summit. That's our conference for the podcast industry. We have a whole newsletter for podcasters. It's called Hot Pod, written by our very own Ariel Shapiro. Hot Pod Summit is where we bring that community—of creators, trendsetters and decision makers—together to explore the latest developments in podcasting, audiobooks and more. It was a packed house and a great time. We ended the day by recording our first ever live Decoder with Conal Byrne, CEO of iHeartMedia's digital audio group. Conal oversees podcasting at a giant radio company, and his group accounts for a quarter of iHeart's revenue, which was a billion dollars last quarter alone. His team makes some of the biggest podcasts around with huge talent like Will Ferrell, Shonda Rhimes, and Charlamagne Tha God who you'll hear Conal talk about quite a lot. Conal and iHeart digital earned that success by doing some unconventional things. Whereas other big podcasting players like Spotify and Apple have tried to boost revenue through subscriptions or platform exclusivity, Conal shunned those approaches and said he's going for big audience reach, made possible in part by his ability to run ads and even shows on iHeart's huge network of traditional radio stations. But, that maverick approach has included some controversial steps as well. Last year, Verge alumni and Bloomberg reporter Ashley Carman reported that iHeart worked with a firm called Jun Group to essentially buy podcast downloads through video games. To many in the industry, that seemed pretty disingenuous. So of course I asked Connell about that and lots more. He was a great guest, super game to answer the questions, especially in front of a live audience.

This week we're breaking down “Training Day.” Michael becomes fast friends with the man who's been hired to replace him at Dunder Mifflin, Deangelo Vickers, who is played by the very funny Will Ferrell! But once Michael introduces Deangelo to the office, Michael begins to have second thoughts about his replacement and leaving. The ladies make some Kahlua Sombreros in honor of Michael and Deangelo's meet up and talk about what it was like to work with Will Ferrell for four episodes. Angela plays some deleted Michael and Deangelo scenes, and Jenna deep dives the origin of meet cutes. Angela also shares a song sung by her aunt and the ladies reminisce with temp job stories. We don't have to lure you with a turtle to enjoy this episode because it's a good one, way better than the TV Show “Babies I Don't Care About.” Link to Thelma Mercer's “All American Girl”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcFZDWYR3UI Office Ladies Website - Submit a fan question: https://officeladies.com/submitaquestionFollow Us on Instagram: OfficeLadiesPodCheck out Office Ladies Merch at Podswag: https://www.podswag.com/collections/office-ladies
