John Requa & Glenn Ficarra and Us | Directors & Producers

This week, dynamic directing duo and Executive Producers on This Is Us, John Requa and Glenn Ficarra, join the podcast! It feels like a family reunion with Mandy, Chris, Sterling, John, and Glenn as they reminisce about memories on set and what it was like working together. John and Glenn talk about what life was like before This Is Us and how they got started in their careers, world building on the show and how their directing style informed the show’s “peak behind the curtain” feel viewers came to love, and they spilled behind the scenes secrets about iconic episodes, like when Jack went back into the burning house, plus so much more!
