Actress and musician Jill Schoelen (POPCORN, THE STEPFATHER, PHANTOM OF THE OPERA 1989) joins Adam and Joe in the ArieScope studio to share her career journey. From a 7 year old girl with alopecia who loved to sing for whoever would listen… to landing her first agent at age 10… to auditioning for the role of "Emmeline" in THE BLUE LAGOON as a teenager seven times only to not get the role… to her audition for "Sarah" in LABYRINTH alongside Jennifer Connelly and Ally Sheedy (Jill didn't get that role either)… to landing the role of "Claudette" in Joel Schumacher's D.C. CAB (1983) and then going on to star in a string of genre films like THE STEPFATHER, CURSE II, POPCORN, and WHEN A STRANGER CALLS BACK all while suffering from agoraphobia and severe anxiety… to the surprising information Fred Walton shared with her about her audition for WHEN A STRANGER CALLS BACK after the film had finished shooting… to her upcoming films RALPH'S PERFEKT CHRISTMAS and A DYING ART… and what to expect in her upcoming book of memoirs and on her upcoming album, Jill explains why you can't attach your happiness to an outcome that you can't personally control and why it's so important to just keep showing up.
