| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Nobody Told Me. I'm Laura Owens. And I'm Jan Black. And we've wanted to talk with our guest on this episode, actress, author, and filmmaker Natasha Gregson Wagner for a very |
| 0:22.2 | long time. Natasha is the daughter of the late actress Natalie Wood and film producer Richard |
| 0:27.2 | Gregson, and she's also the stepdaughter of actor Robert Wagner and the co-producer of the |
