First up: Amy Ryan. You’ve seen her as Beadie Russel on The Wire, in The Office, Gone Baby Gone, a bunch more. She’s starring in the new movie Abundant Acreage Available too. She’ll talk with us about all that stuff, plus, how she convinced her family it was cool to skip college and give acting a real go. Then, Shea Serrano. He’s a writer. He’s covered basketball, music and more for ESPN, Vice, the Ringer, and more. And he took kind of an unusual path to making a career out of it. Born and raised in Texas, Serrano was originally a teacher who’d write in his spare time. He only started writing full time a little over two years ago. His new book is a hot one - it’s called Basketball and Other Things, it’s beautifully illustrated, and it’s out now. Finally: some beautiful words about the baseball team with the worst record this year.
