Give me my need for cigarettes.

I'll never leave your filthy bed.

I stay in the night and one night weekend, two or three years, the kids are not not all right but that's okay because no one here is

Teen Beat.

Hello everyone. It is once again time for Teen Beat with Danielle Fischel and lucky for this podcast,

I am Daniel Fischel. And this is a podcast where I sit down with interesting people hoping to

turn the tables, forcing them to share their own awkward teenage stories with me, because as a

child, I performed for millions of people and a weekly salary, trading in my prepubescence

for a national sitcom fame. And so now, 30 years later, I look at it like this.

I gave you my childhood. It's time we hear yours. And this week, I'm joined by a guest who in adulthood

paints on trash, plays the ukulele and is one of the funniest people I know. So I can only imagine

we're in for an incredible

childhood. You've seen this adorable dynamo on TV shows like How I Met Your Mother, Scrubs,

Raising Hope, and The Big Bang Theory, where she played Raj's love interest, Lucy. And she's a prolific

voice actress, heard as Velma in the modern Scooby-Doo franchise,

Webby Vanderquack on Ducktails,

and she's even somehow the voice of Clayface in the Lego Batman movie.

Not sure how that works.

She was one half of the legendary musical comedy duo Garfunkel and Oates

and released her debut solo album of Music for Kids called My Hat in

23. And now, yet another creative endeavor to excel in, her first ever children's book,

The Monster and Puppet Show, was just released and is available everywhere.
