Summary

Paul F. Tompkins welcomes friends (old and new) back to Spontaneanation! This time out, Paul’s special guest is actress Vella Lovell of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend! Vella chats about which celebrity she would like to die in the arms of, the movie Hook, and being a kid watching TV trying to not get caught watching something she shouldn’t have. Then, they are joined by improvisers Kimia Behpoornia, Edgar Momplaisir, and Carla Cackowski, to improvise a story set in Grandma’s Kitchen. And as always, Eban (only the best) Schletter scores it all on piano! This episode is sponsored by Robinhood ( www.spont.robinhood.com ), Leesa ( www.leesa.com/pft  code: PFT), and Stitch Fix ( www.stitchfix.com/PFT ).
