Show Notes

Um, are the Brits f*cking mocking us? Maybe! If so, they're pretty bloody good fantastic at it. Molly's partner in life and crime, Eric Moneypenny (Adult Swim, FOX ADHD, The Midnight Show, AOK), joins the show this week to discuss "A Working Mother's Worst Nightmare," a 2019 mystery/thriller "based in Los Angeles" despite being shot entirely in London, UK, with British actors playing Americans. Other topics include: Eric's Argo audition, new insight into Pigeon, sketch comedy, and Hulu's Tell Me Lies.

From IMDb:

A new mother struggles with a return to work as she starts to suspect her husband of having an affair while a vexing new co-worker seems to be bent on overthrowing every aspect of her life at work, and at home.

Showrunner, writer, producer, 9/11 survivor (?!), and Molls' longtime friend, Rob Anderson, joins the pod to talk about a TV movie that hit SO freakin hard (and was directed by Mickey Dolenz of The Monkee's). Amongst the chatter about this surprisingly layered and twisty film, Rob and Molls also touch on topics like locking eyes with a rival during a moment of unspeakable tragedy and chaos, accommodating a cat's desires in a coyote-heavy city, the breakup advice Rob once gave Molly, and Skyrizzi.
