Episode #17 is ALL about joy, laughter, and the pursuit of merriment! Our guest, Joe DiPietro fits that theme perfectly. Joe is a TONY award-winning playwright and lyricist. His musical Memphis earned him a TONY for Best Book and Best Original Score. This was also the first show that brought Jimmy Roberts and Joe together, a collaboration that has led to several shows by the duo. His newest original musical, Three Summers of Lincoln, began a WORLD PREMIERE just this week at LaJolla Playhouse, directed by Christopher Ashley.
Landyn also celebrates 50 years of Saturday Night Live and shares her newfound love of TikTok. It's also been a few weeks since we checked in on The Traitors so we fixed that with a new segment of "TRAITOR TALK!" All of this and SO much more on an all-new episode of NO FUCKS LEFT.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
