Summary

We’re so excited to share a new show from Lemonada Media, Don’t Listen To Us, an advice show for advice-skeptics and wisdom-lovers, hosted by Mandy Patinkin, Kathryn Grody, and their son Gideon.

Legendary actor Mandy (The Princess Bride, Homeland, Criminal Minds) is the consummate entertainer who shoots from the hip, stage actress Kathryn is the thoughtful connector who sees all the nuance, and Gideon is the brave soul keeping them on track (or at least trying). Together, Mandy and Kathryn have 40+ years of marriage, 140+ years of life experience, and a series of viral social media posts where Gideon interviews them and watches both chaos and wisdom ensue.

They don’t always agree on what advice to give—in fact, they rarely do. But they draw from their highs and lows as artists, parents, lovers, and humans, to give their unique take on real dilemmas submitted by you -- the listeners. Hang out with this family and you’ll walk away with insights you didn’t expect, stories you’ll want to repeat, and comfort knowing that you’re not alone in figuring out how to survive this fakakta world.

You’re about to hear a clip from the first episode from Don’t Listen To us. After you listen, head to: https://lemonada.lnk.to/DontListenToUsfd to hear the full episode and follow the show wherever you get your podcasts.

0:05.7	Hi, listeners, Mandy Patinkin here.
0:08.1	I want to tell you about our new advice show.
0:10.8	It's called Don't Listen to Us.
0:14.5	It's with my wife, Catherine Grody, our son, Gideon Grody Patinkin, and little old me,
0:20.4	who keeps us from going off the rails. That's Gideon, who keeps us from going off the rails. I, little old me, does not keep us from going off the rails. I am off the rails, and no one helps me. People bring us their real life, real problems. And we try, we try, we try to help. We don't always agree on what the advice
0:39.0	is to give, but we give advice, whether it's wrong or right, helpful or not helpful. Well,
0:43.5	we almost never give good advice, but that's okay, too. It doesn't stop us. Between us,
0:49.6	we have about 140 years of life experience. That's 40 plus years of marriage. I'll say it. It's
0:55.6	47 years together, 45 marriage, and then whatever that was. That's too extra just to, you know,
1:01.3	try to get her to see me again for dinner. And then plenty of laughs, stories, unique takes,

1:18.0	more of Don't Listen to Us, wherever you get your podcasts or watch us on YouTube, you can find
1:23.7	the link in what's called the show notes. If you don't know where the show notes are,
1:29.0	don't ask someone like me, because I don't even have a clue how to find them, how to click on
1:34.8	them, find a 13-year-old and ask them to help you out. As promised, here's a taste of our show
1:39.9	with Lori, very nice person, a listener, who sent us a question about her locked heart.
1:47.2	And those of you who aren't familiar, I played a heart surgeon on TV show a long time ago,
1:51.4	so she couldn't have come to a better person.
1:53.9	I want to answer your question first.
1:56.2	I remember I was mine in my own business.
