Summary

This week marks the final episode of season 2 of our show Warrior on Cinemax, and so it is only fitting that Shannon’s guest this week is actress and one of the stars of Warrior, Olivia Cheng. Shannon met Olivia when she auditioned for Warrior. She came in and read for two different parts and she was such a pro. Little did Shannon know that just weeks before she had been contemplating giving up acting. We are so grateful she didn’t! If you haven’t seen the show, she is marvelous as the gutsy and smooth Ah Toy. But Shannon is not just speaking to Olivia on the podcast just because she’s in Warrior. Shannon is speaking to her because she has become a friend, because she is a dynamic artist and because she’s fun and curious and interested in being introspective and growing. Olivia has a background in journalism and has appeared on the shows Broken Trail and Netflix’s Marco Polo, to name a few. She is a soulful, smart, and fun woman who is an activist for change in Hollywood and in the world. Olivia has a lot of insights and thoughts to share and so Shannon is pleased to gift you this conversation today with Olivia Cheng.
