“Don’t wait, create!” is just one of the gems offered up by TV and film star Alysia Reiner in this week’s episode. She may play badass roles like Natalie “Fig” Figueroa in Orange Is The New Black and Agent Deever in the new Disney+ smash hit Ms. Marvel, but this guest is all heart. Alysia talks about how hard it was starting out, and how she learned not to “carry her own baggage” into the audition room. The group also discusses "being of service," and how that can keep actors grounded and curious at the same time. Tune in and find out which famous casting director told Alysia “maybe that audition will help you decide if you really want to be an actor or not,” along with Alysia’s secret formula for bringing yourself back into a scene or audition when you find yourself somewhere else. Invaluable advice, indeed!
