Summary

Kristen Bell & Justine Lupe (Nobody Wants This) join the Armchair Expert to discuss the incredibly involved, long-game prank pulled on set, how this season of their show is a love story between her their characters, and why wanting to evolve into a better person is so aligned with wanting to become a better actor. Justine, Kristen, and Dax talk about Justine coming to a place in her life where it feels good to not deliver a counterpoint, having a penchant for justice in accordance with her name, and her harrowing journey to audition for Juilliard. Justine explains feeling a part of the unit of TV which makes it so much less brutal than working in theater, wanting to know the futures of her on-screen relationships to assist in building them but being open to the mystery, and the relevance of imaginary podcast money math.
