It's Wednesday, March 10, 2021.

On today's show, Harry and Megan sat down with Oprah and they dished about the racism

We discussed the Super Bowl of interviews with Slate's own Alicia Montgomery and then

the Tuch Stanley Tucci.

He's the star of a new movie, The Indie Darling, Supernova.

He's got a new TV show, his ever-so-fetching CNN travel log about eating his way through

Italy and he's a social media star.

We discussed how a quintessential character actor makes him swoon like a leading man.
