I am endlessly fascinated by the messiness of being human, and I find people who are vulnerable and honest about their struggles and shortcomings to be incredibly sexy. I invite you to join me as I explore other people’s stories. We will celebrate, above all, the challenges and setbacks that ultimately lead to growth and betterment. What qualifies me for such an endeavor? More than a decade of sobriety, a degree in Anthropology and four years of improv training. I will attempt to discover human “truths” without any laboratory work, clinical trials or data collection. I will be, in the great tradition of 16th-century scientists, an Armchair Expert.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T16:19:56.634074+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033"},"episode":{"title":"Chace Crawford","slug":"chace-crawford","published_at":"2026-05-11T07:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033/chace-crawford","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/armchair-expert-with-dax-shepard-229033","url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/23cc5287-8574-429d-ab5e-59a0bd9418a4.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","audio_url":"https://rss.art19.com/episodes/23cc5287-8574-429d-ab5e-59a0bd9418a4.mp3?rss_browser=BAhJIg90cmFuc2NyaWJyBjoGRVQ%3D--952c5701c84ad333c69d5faa668f8177091704f0","summary":"Chace Crawford (The Boys, Gossip Girl, and The Covenant) is an actor. Chace joins Armchair Expert to discuss growing up between Texas, Oklahoma, and Minnesota, being a people pleasing chameleon from having to always make new friends, and leaving Texas for College in California. Chace and Dax talk about crashing a car while valeting in Malibu, narrowly missing Friday Night Lights, and achieving overnight success on Gossip Girl. Chace explains how fame can either make you self-centered or paranoid, how alcohol can make celebrity feel easier for all the wrong reasons, and why chasing the next wave of validation is always a trap.
