'Glee’ and ‘The Assassination of Gianni Versace’ star Darren Criss joined the show. Over scallion pancakes stuffed with gooey cheese and bacon, Darren tells me about going viral for a Harry Potter parody in 2009, getting ‘Glee,’ and how 'Maybe Happy Ending’ almost didn’t even make it on stage, which is hard to believe given its acclaim – the Broadway show and Darren both walking away with Tony awards. Plus, we talk about being dads and a funny moment at a fancy Hollywood party. This episode was recorded at Win Son Bakery in Manhattan’s East Village.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Darren Criss — On Getting ‘Glee’ & How ‘Maybe Happy Ending’ Almost Didn’t Make It

I’m breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. We're getting out of the studio and into my favorite restaurants across Los Angeles and New York City with people like Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, Niecy Nash-Betts, and so many more. I know, a celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing that? No one. Which is why I needed to.
 
We’ll get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. We’ll laugh about my attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, am I saying a chocolate soufflé is going to get me to reveal all my secrets? Yeah. Yeah, I am. So, join me… dinner’s on me.
 
Dinner’s on Me is a production of Sony Music Entertainment and A Kid Named Beckett Productions.
