Early in her career Jackie appeared on many of our favorite shows such as “The Sopranos”, “Veronica Mars”, “Strangers With Candy”, not the least of which was “The Nanny”, in which she played a young Fran Drescher. Turns out Kristen Bell - shout out Nobody Wants This - is a close friend.  There was also that one time she lived with Jessica Biel and her parents in Calabasas. Jackie talks the brilliant Glow, gone but not forgotten. Jackie talks her comedic hero Joan Rivers and what it was like to be on The Howard Stern show. Jackie also chats about appearing on “American Idol” and Bravo’s very own “Platinum Hit” (Kara DioGuardi, we see you!).
