We are just pleased as punch to be joined this week by actor Dale Dickey. You Might Know Her From Winter’s Bone, My Name is Earl, Leave No Trace, True Blood, Iron Man 3, The Guilt Trip, and Breaking Bad. We had a blast with Dale talking about mastering “the squirt” as Annelle in the Chicago production of Steel Magnolias, acting opposite baby wolves as a werewolf on True Blood, and what the presence of Barbra Streisand or Betty White does to a set. All those goodies plus her Indie Spirit-winning role as the hot-coffee-flinging FOIL to an unknown Jennifer Lawrence and her supreme pack of Southern character actresses. Come for the incredible Dale interview and stick around for some And Just Like That musings.
