Summary
This week, Becky welcomes her friend and fellow Gen X music queen, actress and writer Natalie Zea (Justified, La Brea) to the pod. Natalie opens up about the reality of being a working actor right now, and the conversation gets very candid — in the best possible way. Natalie is her honest, funny, and vulnerable self as she shares how drastically the business has changed since she started out, how that's personally affected her, and what it really means to navigate a career when the industry you built your life around is going through such a tumultuous time. Natalie and Becky also dig into what writing has meant to her during this chapter, her desire to do more comedy, and — of course — which Tori Amos album she would bring to a deserted island.
