Alysia Reiner from Orange Is the New Black (she plays Fig, the warden) is here. She talks about her other TV series, Better Things and The Deuce, and her new movie, Egg, which also stars Mad Men's Christina Hendricks.

Not unlike my other podcast interviews, I skim over typical superficial questions and get into real conversation.

Today it gets a little awkward, I think. What do you think? I'm all ears. Email me at [email protected] with your thoughts.

You'll also hear Alysia talk about:

• Producing her movie, Egg
• Getting into the Tribeca Film Festival
• Her love of science and individuality
• Why she's over the moon over husband David Alan Basche
• What she does to unwind
• Parenting her 10-year-old daughter
• Why she loves her career and her life
• Ups and downs of being a seasoned actor and newbie producer
• Reactions to an interviewer who prefers real conversation, even if it's uncomfortable at times
