Great episode! Loved the fun dynamic between Liz, Sarah & Jenna.
Just wanted to say that I LOVED Jenna in “The Giant Mechanical Man,” such a beautiful honest movie that is too much of a well kept secret! (And I love that it’s filmed at the Detroit Zoo!)
Thanks for the informative interviewing – Jenna had great advice for any career.
