Show Notes
Jaime Denbo has a lot to say.. about women in comedy, bringing back workplace romance, her husband, star of Stuart Fails to Save the Universe, Big Bang Theory, and Speechless John Ross Bowie, even the way you pronounce John Ross Bowie.
On this week's Plus One with Morgan and Lisa, Jaime keeps us in stitches as the actress, producer, writer and mom gets real about Gen X theories, Big Bang Theories, and enabling Morgan to play young and dumb.
Then John joins the chaos to celebrate his multi hyphenate wife, disagree about how the two ended up in a romance, and what he jokes is the biggest difference between writers and actors.
Get ready to do a spit take as you listen to this match made in comedy heaven!
